The promise that the horse wouldn’t hurt him made him wonder if he could trust her entirely. He had already an injured leg and should it be a trick, he would end up getting a fracture, or even trampled to death for all he knew. He took in an almost shaky breath, listening to her explain how exactly he should approach the horse. ‘Approach from the side…’ Thomas began to limp from the bush cover, his bandage becoming more-so apparent. His dark brown watching carefully and his movements were hesitant, yet he tried not to look so jumpy.
As he began to get closer, she chuckled with a grin, his ears flicking forward at the sound, slightly surprised that she was so relaxed to be able to laugh around someone she didn’t even know. He envied that part of anyone. While he was shy, cautious and pretty much anything but calm around strangers, others could give them warm smiles, hugs even.
She explained that the other horse – a girl – had been giving them issues, so she had given her swat on the rump which made her take off. And that Wayne was fine and probably having a good time. He assumed – as anyone would – that Wayne was the friend of hers. It didn’t seem like a good idea for the horse to go even faster, but what did he know about them? Absolutely nothing, so, he listened and continued to slowly approach the horse.
He noticed Dixie-May tightening the grip on the reins and he hesitated for a moment before gently extending his palm on the side of the male’s neck. He took one more step before staying where he was. If the horse seemed okay, he would slowly pet his neck as the hybrid woman had previously showed him. “Is… this okay?” He questioned, turning to glance at Dixie. It felt unreal to him, to be actually touching a horse, the animal he had just moments ago, shied from.
