Eric could tell that silver was in a good mood today. That may not be a good thing though *Maybe everyone is in a good mood* he thought to himself. He went and waited outside the arena by the gate watching Kristy warm Silver up.

Kristy shortened them up about two holes. Where she usually had them then she decided to put them up one more hole. Once she started the five footers she was really going to need to be out of the saddle and giving him enough release as she could. She smiled and looked at Eric before taking Silver to a canter and over some of the warm up fences.

Eric just smiled as he watched Kristy on Silver. He was so excited that she was trying higher jumps. He just stood there and watched ready to jump in if anything went wrong.

OOC: easier haha sry
Kristy was finally happy with Silvers jumping and directed him to one of the four foot niners. She held him until about two strides out and then let him go. They soared she smiled and took him around to a two six to make she he was fine and then brought him to a five footer. She could feel him tense a little and she massaged the reins a little and he calmed. She let him out again about two strides and this time the take off was long, this sucked but she held her posture. They landed a little bumpy but it was alright. She circled him to calm him and then took him to the five footer again. This time was better but not perfect. So she again took him back, she did this a few times before she stopped and halted. She wasnt going to push him any father. They had made a great leap today and she didnt want to ruin it. She she let him walk on a loose rein and smiled over at Eric.

Eric smiled at her as she took the five footer. He was so nervous for her and didn't want her to get hurt. When she made it a few times he was so proud that she did it. When she smiled over at him he smiled and said "Good job Kristy. You did good at the jump."

Kristy smiled at him, "thanks...It was Silver here who did all the work though" she laughs and pats Silvers neck. It was a little warm so she hopped off stripped his tack put it on the fence and let him roam the arena while she leaned against the fence next to Eric.

Eric smiled as she walked up to him and took off Silvers tack. When she leaned against the fence next to him on the other side he smiled at her. "Hey you, you are doing so good." He leaned over and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Kristy smiled as she looked at him, her head turned sideways so she could see his face fully, "Thanks Eric...Ive been working him up higher, and I was just kind of like. well he aint ever going to make it if we dont finally try. He did good deff, going to need to work on five foot five foot three for awhile before we move up to those last heights though" she says as she glances over to silver who looks as if he is about to roll.

Eric smiled as he listened to her. He could just listen to her talk because he loved her voice. "Yeah he can still use a little work but you will get him there." When she looked back at Silver he looked back too.

Kristy sighed and nodded but didnt say anything. She watched as Silver went to the ground rolled one and then got up and trotted over to where they were standing, "good boy" she says smiling again and she patted his neck, "Eric would you mind just taking the tack back to the tack area? Im going to cool him off a little longer by riding some bareback" she says softly as she grabbed mane and swung herself onto his back. It had gotten easier through the years, but the first time she did that she had fallen.

When Silver came over he gave her a pat on the nose and smiled at Kristy. When she asked if he would take the tack back in he nodded and picked it up carrying it back inside. He put everything away and came back outside and just stood at the edge of the barn and watched her.

Kristy took Silver around the inside of the arena and sighed she just sat on his back. It used to be uncomfortable because of how lean and muscular his back was. But now it didnt really bother her. She headed towards the gate and leaned down unlocking it. She walked silver out and up to the barn where she hopped off and let him walk to his stall on his own accord. She smiled and locked the door and then stood infront of Eric looking up at him.

When Kristy took Silver around the arena Eric just watched her. She always looked so proud when she rode it made him smile. After she got down and walked over to him. When she looked up at him he smiled down at her and grabbed her by the waist pulling her closer to him. He smiled down at her and kissed her forehead, then her cheeks, and then he lightly kissed her lips.

Kristy smiled as he kissed her she kissed him back softly as his lips touched hers. She put her hands on his neck smiling and kissed him a little deeper.

When Kristy put her hands on his neck he smiled to himself and pulled her closer. He kissed her with love deepening the kiss. While they were kissing he flipped them around so her back was against the wall.
