"Hmm... Then it might be more than a bruise. Like I said, keep it iced. I'll come back for a follow up." Michel bent back down. "His legs really tender, but that might just be because of the swelling. I'll have a better idea later." Michel rubbed the horses neck. "Okay, no exercise untill I come back for his guy. If he isn't standing straigh, favouring one foot, it's fine for now. He can baby it today. But remember, keep it iced. That's the most important thing and I can't stress it enough. I know people that didn't, and thier horses couldn't be ridden after that." Michel stood up and walked around. He saw where the horse had slipped. "Lexus, come here." He pointed out a peg sticking out of the ground. "I betcha he hit the peg, I'll take him in for x-rays tomorrow."

“People are a tad bit stupid, it makes me wonder why the hell some people own horses” said Lexus as she scratched Ollie on the forehead. He leaned his head heavily into her, obviously feeling not himself. Lexus listened to him speak, taking in the information. She knew most of it, but she’d never had a problem listening to stuff she’d heard before, it was a great refresher course. “Sounds like a plan” said Lexus as she finished and slowly walked him towards the stall. He limped away, favouring the one leg. Lexus tossed him into the stall where he just stood, motionless. He didn’t even turn around to watch her leave. Lexus was not comfortable with this at all, she couldn’t stand seeing Ollie off. The horse had never been lame a day in his life. This was not cool. She heard her name and looked up, why did he want her? Something told her this wasn’t going to be good. She let her eyes follow his finger, and before she even thought about the words to minimize the swearing they slipped out of her mouth, “Who in their right fucking mind leaves a god damn peg in the middle of the arena!?”. Lexus resisted all urges to turn around and stare at the girl she’d just met, she didn’t suspect the girl did it, but she did know it was people like that that did stupid shit like this. Lexus closed her eyes, took a breath and smiled at Michel. “Thanks for coming out, and for find this” she said, letting a smile cross her lips even though anger still rooted in the back of her throat.

"Yes, people can be stupide. But some pay for it." Michel had had to take away some animals due to owners not caring for them before. They had the money, they had the supplies, but they just didn't care. Why they didn't he would never know, nor would he ever understand. if only he'd caught it sooner, maybe tha cat would have survived. The dog did, and the horse, but the pregnant cat didn't. "Okay, do you have ice packs here?" He hoped he had some in his truck. Hmmmm. Who could he get to pick them up if he didn't? "I think the pegs from the jump. Calm down. See?" Michel picked up a ground pole, and layed it on the peg. "It's so the poles don't move." He'd never heard her talk like that. "Anyways, your welcome." Michel smiled at Lexus. Wow, she was hot, woah! Hold up, he was here for work. God! What was he thinking!

“A couple, but I’ll probably have to run by your office and pick up a few more” said Lexus, trying to recall everything she had in the bottom of her box. She had everything under the sun in there, somewhere. Lexus watched him point out what the pegs were for, she kind of figured they were for that. But still who in their right mind just left the shit out. She didn’t leave jump cups in the middle of the ring. Lexus could still feel anger in her throat, and she was sure it showed in her face slightly. She was never good at hiding all her emotions, though she masked it quite well. But her eyes usual gave it away. Lexus looked away and took a deep breath, hello he didn’t break a leg. He’d get better. And hey, she’d see Michel more often. She figured she might as well stick to the positives, because negatives would just give her way too much to think about. “Can you drop some ice packs off after work? Or do you want me to run in later.. I’ll have enough for today though” said Lexus as she started to remember the last time she’d had to do this kind of thing, she’d bought a few extras she knew that.

"I'll run them by. Thank's for being so cooperative. But I have to go. Bye" Michel got his stuff together. He walked out to the truck and saw a pack of 10 ice packs sitting in the backseat. He picked them up and walked back into the barn, looking around, trying to find Lexus. He could give these to her, she wouldn't need anymore. He sat down on a bench, but heard a stallion nicker to him. He turned around and got up. He walked over to the stall and rubbed the horses nose. What a cutie! He was gorgeous! Michel walked up a down the aisles, checking out all the horses. All of them seemed to be in good condition. Michel was so busy he almost forgot about the ice packs. Almost. Michel walked back over to the bench and sat back down. He was tired, and just wanted to go home for a bit.

Lexus smiled and waved, disappearing into the tack room to find the ice packs she knew were around here somewhere. She finally felt the material of them underneath a pile of coolers and yanked them out, finding five icepacks. Lexus grabbed all the stuff she needed and headed towards Ollie’s stall, the gelding was half asleep and looking the way he should. Lexus fixed him up and was about to sit down when she noticed a pack of ten icepacks, she could tell they were from a vets office just by looking at them, Michel must have found some. Lexus tossed them beside the others and sank her but into the stall bedding, watching the stallion eat.
