She smiled and said, *Well I'm not a fan of being called names right now." She playfully straightened up and said, "Oh I know how to ride a horse. In fact I'd say that I'm quite an expert, one of the fastest in the area."

"Fastest, sure. What ever floats your boat. I'm sure they will not mind if we go 'bond'. Really, we can ride fast and get out of here." Jackson says. Parenets are so demanding. I'm 24. I can leave. Why havn't I? I need the food. Tasty food. Not eggs.

She nodded and said eagerly, "Now that sounds like a plan. Actually do something fun instead of being stuck by our parents." She got up and said, "Where do you wanna go first?"

"Probily the stable" Jackson says. "That sounds like the best move." Walking down stairs, he says, "We are off." That's it, before walking out the door to the stable.

She quickly walked after him, ignoring the calls of her father. Getting to the stables, she saddled up her stallion before climbing on and riding off. "Come on slowpoke!" She laughed.

"Says the girl on a stationary horse." Jackson says as he swings into the sadle and spurs his mare on. The black steed races like gresed lightning out of the yard and off into the woods.

She urged her horse faster, the speckled black and white stallion starting to catch up with him. She smirked mischievously as she passed him and laughed, "Not stationary anymore!"

Jackson know these woods. The two are not super far from the house yet, so he takes a turn down a game trail near a creek. A feeling like flying overcomes him before the mare's hoves come back to earth on the other side.

Her horse skidded to a halt, nearly throwing her into the creek. She grasped tightly onto her reins before backing her horse up, wanting to give him time to try and make it through. The second time they made the crossing and she gently encouraged him to catch back up to them.

"What was that?" Jackson says, slowing down to let Sophia and her horse catch up before resuming the pace. "DUCK!" He yells as a branch wips into sight.
