in his arms

Chapter 53

I was silent the entire car ride. I was still angry at Anthony for making me get up and ready.
“We’re gunna have a good day today, right?” he asked me, placing his hand face up between the two of us as we rode to the lessons.
When I only nodded my head and refused to place my hand on top of his, he reached over and took my hand anyways. A quirky grin found its way to his mouth, and then to mine as well.
As he focused back to the road, I noticed him blinking hard and squinting. That scared me. “Are you okay?” He didn’t respond to me. “Anthony?” I repeated. When he didn’t respond a second time, I panicked. “Anthony!” I yelped, and his head turned to me.
“Why are you yelling?”
My chest relaxed. “Well, you weren’t responding to me.”
“Were you even saying anything?” I nodded my head. “Oh, sorry.”
“Are you okay?”
He bobbed his head. “Yeah, I just have this massive headache.”
“Maybe…” I stammered. “Maybe I should drive.”
He gritted his teeth. “No. I’m fine.”
I didn’t want to make him any more upset than he already was, so I left it at that.
We pulled into the parking lot of the farm and we both left the car. Anthony approached me and slung his arm over my shoulder, but not affectionately. Like he was leaning against me for support. Like if I wasn’t there, he would’ve collapsed.
We checked ourselves in and signed a few papers before meeting a young, female trainer and her horses, Star and Dakota.
Star was pure white with a long, bushy tail. She was a little scrawny, but that was okay, because Anthony and I were too. Dakota was a caramel color with a platinum mane and tail and chocolate covered hooves. Dakota was the horse with the most energy, so I offered to take her.
Anthony allowed me to have the first turn. The trainer showed me how to adjust the saddle and board the horse. She instructed me on how to get comfortable and keep balance, and how to control the horse. As Dakota began picking up speed, I squealed faintly, giggling. My bright eyes glanced up to Anthony, who still stood in the barn. He was smiling as well.
I still rode Dakota while the trainer offered to help Anthony on his horse. I watched him as he took his first step, and his legs caved beneath him, and he fell to the dirt.
I felt my breath shorten. I wanted to get down, I wanted to help him. But I had no idea how to stop.
Instead the trainer went to assist him back to his feet. “Are you okay?” she asked him.
Something came out of his mouth, but it wasn’t English. It was incomprehensible gibberish.
So the trainer laughed shortly, clearly feeling somewhat uncomfortable. “Are you okay?” she repeated.
This time, he only stared at her for about five seconds. And suddenly, his body was in the dirt again as he convulsed and jerked around uncontrollably.

I'd really rather not cry thank you very much. If I have to wait too long to find out to what happened to the dear Anthony I've come to love so much I'll hunt you down and force a chapter out of you :]

Bad. Bad. Drama = O.K. Anthony dying = not O.K.

(I am not trying to be mean or a smart , I just noticed something that that I thought was funny. It's "mounting" the horse, not "boarding" the horse. It would make more sense as boarding, but it's not, which is stupid.
