Deductive continued cantering, he pulled at the bit as he felt Lily pulling on the reigns, Deductive ripped his head down and through in a few bucks as he cantered. Deductive's canter soon turned into a gallop as he raced around the arena, throwing in bucks.

Now Lily was good with horses, she'd been riding all her life. But she'd lost a stirrup over the jump and it was flailing around so much she coudn't get it back. Actually, it would occasionally knock against her shin, and it was starting to really hurt. She lost the reins when he jerked his head down, too. Now she was really in trouble. She tried to stay calm and keep her seat, but it wasn't happening. He took off in a gallop and on one buck she went airborn. Landing with a thud, she rolled several times on the arena dirt. Lily felt pain, then everything went black. Maybe she should have put her helmet on before going for a ride.

Deductive continued bucking, even after Lily was off, he continued for a few minutes before stopping as he heard footsteps, with a snort Deductive continued galloping around..
Dustin walked around, he'd heard something in the Arena and decided to check it out, it didn't sound too good. Walking into the Arena, Dustin saw the Bay horse running around and Lily on the ground, He calmly walked over to her and gave her and picked her up, moving her to the side of the arena out of the horses way, then started giving her a slight nudge.

The world remained black as Dustin moved her. She'd fallen pretty hard. Her arm hung a little funny from her shoulder and a red stream formed a line from her temple to her chin, coming from a cut a little more than half an inch long. A bruise had formed on her shin where the stirrup had been hitting, but it wouldn't be noticed unless someone rolled up the legs on her breeches. Lily would definitely be in pain when she woke up, but at least someone was there with her. Thank the heavens he'd been in the barn at the right time.

Dustin picked Lily up again and walked out of the arena, he'd leave the horse for now. Maybe it was the one she was breaking, if soo he didn't look too bad, good bloodlines.. Dustin Sat Lily in the passenger side of the car and put her seatbelt on, then he went around to the drivers side, starting the car..Dustin drove to the hospital and carried Lily in, he put her on a bed as the doctors asked and then sat waiting.

Lily blinked a few times, trying to get accustomed to the bright light. There were people above her, and everything was white. Where was she? She remembered taking a spill on Deductive, but after that everything just went blank. Her arm hurt, and so did her head. The pounding wouldn't stop. Someone asked her a question, and she answered them. Someone must have taken her to the hospital, because that's definitely where she was. Lily supplied answers to the doctor's questions and did as they asked.
After several minutes of examination, she was taken to the x-ray room, where they took several pictures of her shoulder and leg. After that, they took her to do a scan of her head to make sure there was no damage there. Then they took her back to her room. A few minutes after that, a doctor came in with x-rays, putting them up on the wall across from her so she could she.
"No permanent damage, and no breaks. It seems you've dislocated your shoulder. It'll be bruised and painful for a while, but you'll live. Same for your leg, just a bad bruise, no breaks. As for your head, you have a pretty bad concussion, but if you're friend can agree to keep an eye on you for the next day or so, I'll release you after we fix you're arm." Lily listened as the doctor spoke. Well, at least nothing was broken. She could still ride, but she knew she'd have to take it easy. "Friend? Wait, who brought me here?"

Dustin waited for the doctor to approach him and tell him he could go into the room, He walked in and looked at Lily then smiled how ya going? Dustin would see how she was then go back and un-saddle her horse, maybe giving him a brush to get rid of the sweat, but first he'd make sure she was okay.. is that the horse your breaking in?

The doctor had just finished setting her arm when Dustin walked in. A nurse helped her sit up and started putting her arm in a sling as Lily looked at Dustin. "I'll live, and ya, that's Deductive. Great horse, eh? And thanks for bringing me in. Umm, could I ask you one more favor." She gave him the puppy dog look. "Could you maybe let me come over to your place and spend the next, oh I don't know, 24-48 hours with you?"

Dustin smiled yea, he's pretty, looks like he's got a good bloodline, he's bred for something.. Laughing as he got the puppy dog look Dustin smiled What is it? Looking at Lily he listened to what the favour was and chuckled. is that all? it's no problem, i got tonight off work, on our way back, we gotta go to the barn and get Deductive out of the arena..

"He's still there? I hope he's alright." She had a dizzy spell and put her free hand to her pounding head. "Thanks. The docs won't let me leave unless someone is there to watch me for a while. You'll have to keep me awake the whole time, just so ya know." The doctor prescribed her some pain meds and brought them to her, giving her instructions for their use. Then, with sling and butterfly bandages in place, she slowly stood and made her way over to Dustin, reaching out her arm for him to steady her when she got close.

Dustin smiled and nodded he'll be fine, theres not much he could get up too in the arena, if he gets tangles in the reigns, he'll probably just break his bridle.. Dustin grabbed her arm gently once she was close enough. and I'm sure i can keep you awake..

She flashed a weak smile to him as he took her arm. Lily had a feeling he'd have to work pretty hard to keep her awake for the next 24 hours. She was exhausted, and the concussion was only making it worse. Not to mention the sick feeling in her stomach. The doctor had said the medication would help with that, as well. "Well, let's go get him then. I just bought that bridle." It was an attempt at humor, but she was also kinda serious. She didn't want anything to get broken, or for Deductive to get hurt or be scared. He was all by himself back at the barn running around in the arena.

Dustin nodded and laughed at her comment on the bridle. well, how bout if he breaks it, i buy a new one. He slowly walked her to the car and helped her into the passengers side, before getting in the drivers side. Dustin started the engine and backed out of the park then straightened up and headed for the barn.

Lily let him help her to his car. She'd almost forgotten how nice it was, nothing like her pickup. "I couldn't allow you buy me a new bridle. It's expensive, and it's my fault if he breaks it. I'm the one that was stupid and tried to take him over a jump. As far as I know, it was the first time he'd ever had a rider. I have no idea what I was thinking, and please, don't make fun of me for it."

Dustin laughed and shook his head. there not too expensive..and don't worry about it.. he listened to the rest of what she was saying, about how she was his first rider.. don't worry, when i was breaking in a mare once, i decided i would take her out on the road in a halter, bareback..it didn't end too well.soo, i can't make fun of you for it.. He slowed down once they neared the barn and pulled in, near the arena..
