Only...it wasn't bending just yet, huh? That meant something wasn't right. Ella had been talking to the horse and petting it on the neck for quite some time but she was pretty sure Botros had mentioned the backbone. Actually, the very back of the backbone. Right, okay. She was on it.
"Okay, buddy. We're going to ride you now. Don't you worry, it'll be great. We've got your back if you've got ours, yah? This will be fun." And as she spoke softly, she caressed the back of the backbone gently, waiting for something to happen. And luckily enough, eventually something did.
"Tag! He's bending down!" BEAM! Did he seeee? Did he? This was good news. "That means that we can..." That they could get on the horse now, yeah? YEAH! And Ella did. Extremely carefully and slowly but still. And she stayed towards the back of the horse because Tag would be steering them as they walked along the trail. "Hop on, Leprechaun! The view is nice from up here."
Whoops. Tag had gotten momentarily confused. So when Ella told him to hop on the boy hesitated for a second but then carefully got on the horse after Ella had. Making sure not to accidentally hit her or anything. Alec wouldn't exactly like his girlfriend getting shoe imprints on his girlfriends face, yeah? Good best friend over here.
Ella was really really good at giving the horse really comforting words and making it feel nice. Did she know that? She must. He'll tell her after class. She might get distracted from the task if he gave her the compliment right now.
Taking the reins Tag gently tugged on them. The horse was completely standing up now, by the way. But the horse wasn't really moving. Maybe it didn't like getting tugged at? Tag frowned slightly then softly patted the guys neck. "
Hey buddy. If you walk I'll try to set you up on a date with one of those lady horses over there, yeah?" Try being the main word here.
Ohhhhh motivation. The horse was slowly, bur surely moving. An up ahead, alongside the path there seemed to be a little pond. An Tag was having some trouble trying to control the guy because he seemed to be wanting to go right through the route. Gentle tug to the path again, yeah, horsey. Work with the leprechaun here. The horse began to protest a bit and kept trotting closer and closer to the direction of the pond.
We'll get you water later, horsey.
