Dorothee walked up to the barn just in time. The Trailer had just pulled up. She watched as someone led Hugo out, and then she took over. She walked up to hugo and held the far end of the Lead rope.She stood there and watched the truck drive away then she entered the barn, Hugo following obediantly. " hello? anyone here?" She called out, her french accent obviously giving away that dory from the e-mail was definatly Dorothee.

He heard a knock on his office door and walked over to it, almost falling over a stack of papers. He opened the door and saw one of the young riders standing there. The boy was only about eleven at most. "What is it Evan?" Jack asked the boy. "Hugo is here, just wanted to let you know." said the boy as he wandered off into the lounge. "Alright, thanks Evan." said Jack as he stepped out of his office and started down the stable blocks. He turned around as he heard the horse hauler shutting the trailer door. Jack realised that he probably had to sign something, so he quickly walked around to where the driver and his truck were. After signing a release form and chatting with the driver, he watched the truck drive away. He turned around to see a blonde woman and a deep grey stallion facing away from him. "Hello, welcome to Flying Change Farm." he said as he strode up to them. "I am Jack Adelwolf, manager, owner, and trainer here." his voice cut off when he realised that Hugo belonged to the woman he had met earlier that day at the park. " Dorothee?"

" Jack? you are the owner of Flying Change farm? well what a suprise" she said truely taken aback. It was then that she realized that that story she had said inline, he knewabout. If she would've know that she might have not came, but then again a part of her wanted to see him again, and another part wanted to see Hugo. She reacheda hand out to Hugo, seeing if she was brave enough and he jerked his head back and snorted. The jerking of the head wasn;t his normal self and Dorothee jumped back, right into Jack. " Sorry She siad. She could feel her cheeks turning red in embarasment. She laughed and lookedto him. " Well this is Hugo"

This was going to be interesting. But ho would he have known that Dorothee was the owner of Hugo? When it had been arranged for Hugo to stay at the farm, Jack ad delt with an older French man over the phone. It just hit him that that was most likely Dorothee's father. He then tried to recall if Dorothee's name was on the papers he got before Hugo arrived. He couldn't remember.
Jack watched as Dorothee catiously stuck out her hand to Hugo. The stallion then threw his head up snorting, causing Dorothee to back up and bump into Jack. Jack heard her mutter an apology. "It's fine. I'm usually the one runnning into people. Or tripping." he said to try and lighten the mood a bit. He could see how scared she really was of Hugo. It was going to take a lot of work just to get her to touch the grey.
He looked back to Dorothee when she introduced her horse to him. "He's stunning. You are lucky to have a horse like im Dorothee." he said as he reached his hand out for Hugo to smell before stroking his muscular neck. "Would you like me to show you and Hugo to his stall?"

He was glad to hear Dorothee laugh, she just looked sad the few times he had seen her. "Well follow me then." he said walking forward. "His stall is just up here." he said as he stopped a few stalls away. "New bedding in here, fresh water, and his name is even on the front of the stall." Jack then opened the stall door and stepped aside so Dorothee could lead Hugo in. "Questions about anything?"

Dorothee smiled and followed him. She gladly put Hugo in his stall and unclipped the lead rope. " I think he will like it here. What do you have for boarding fees so I can get in a payment...and I won't take no for an answer." She said folding her hands across her chest, waiting for an answer.

"Hugo board was already paid by the man who had him shipped here. You are set to go for four omnths before you have to pay again." he said in reply to her question. He thought that she already knew this, but he thought wrong.
"Would you like me to show you around so you know where everything is?"

Jack walked out of Hugo's stall as Dorothee came out bhind him and locked the stall. "Well this," he said, indicating the stable rows that faced eachother. "is the main barn. I have a smaller barn just out back for the school horses. The boarding horses stay in here. Cross ties are in the aisle ways for your convience." He started walking down the stable aisle at a slow pace so Dorothee could keep up since she had a distinct limp from her accident. "Down here is the tack room. You can't miss it. It's a door with a sign that says, you'll never guess, Tack Room. Across from the tack room is a space the size of two stalls that we use for the bedding and feed." He then began to walk again to the whole other end of the barn. "Through these doors up here is the indoor riding ring. We have one more indoor in a pole barn a few acres in the back of the property." He led her into the riding ring, which had a door to anoher small building, which he wa heading to. "In here is the lounge and my office. The lounge, as you can tell has windows for veiwing the riding ring." He stopped by the door, holding it open for Dorothee.

"Thanks." he said as she spoke about the barn. He shut the door as she walked past him. "Here in the lounge feel free to relax and flip on the telly if you want to. Also feel free to have any food or drink that is in the kitchen." he said as he walked past the kitchen area. "In there is my office." he said as he waved his hand to an open door. "Ignore the mess. It's always that way." He stopped by one of the windows to the riding ring and watched as one of his riding students was exercising one of the school horses, Magpie. "There is also an upstairs to the lounge. It's basically the same as down here, except it hs a pool table." Jack didn't even bother going up there to show her. "That's about it, unless you would like to walk out back to the other barn." She proably would like to go back there, it was long walk and all that was back there were feilds and the school horse barn.

" I'd like to go see the school horses. I might as well familarize myselfwith this place" shesaid. She would be spending time here taking care of hugo, butanother part of her wanted to come here justto see him. This wasn't like her. She had never hada crush on anyone before..why now? Was it becausehe knew her secret, she didn't know.

"Well follow me then. The school horse barn is about an acre away our back." he said as he made his was to the lounge door. "The horse getting ridden out in the ring right now is one of the school horses. Her name is Magpie, but we just call her Maggie." he said as he glanced to the now trotting horse. Magpie was one of the best trained horses he owned, thus using her for all levels of riders.
He moved over to the barn door near the back and pulled it open so they could go out back. He stepped outside and stopped, waiting for Dorothee. His mind then began to wander, thinking about Hugo and Dorothee. He could tell that she really loved Hugo, but she seemed afraid just to even touch the stallion. Hopefully he could help her overcome her fear.

Dorothee watched magpie. She did seem like a good horse. She smiled thinking back to Hugo and her. The horse and rider made a good team. She looked to see him walking towards the barn door then walked over catching up to him, pushing away the thoughts of Hugo.
