Timothy Blue/ EI / M: Emily + Gang.

He couldn't help but meet her eyes,Tim couldn't find anywhere else to look as she lowers a little to his level.Speechless at how concerned she seemed his expression softens a little,jaw loosening slightly from its firmed state.

"No there's nothing wrong."

He says rather snappily,Before looking away and sighing at his own outburst.

"Its just a bit of a shock is all -"

He says gently but rather evasively ,Rubbing the back of his neck and looking to the car.Tim didn't know what else to say - He couldn't find the words.It sounded ridiculous even to him but he felt..Heartbroken?He Just really thought she was different.

Far from it.

With another sigh he gestures toward the car,Trying his best to turn her attention away from him,

"We best get going - It seemed like a decent journey from your schedules."

"He thought she was different" is the most extra thing I've ever heard looll)

Emily | Eventing | Tim, fam

"Shock? Which part?" The blonde followed after him, feeling guilty about whatever she had done. She always seemed to embrace whatever blame was going around, and absorbed it in her very core. She followed him to the car, placing herself between Camden and Tim, although all three fit quite comfortably in the vehicle. It was just the three of them, for Emma and Riley seemed to be having their own confrontation beside one of the barns, out of earshot of the trio. It seemed they had just left Camden there, which hurt Emily's heart a bit more. She knew Riley had been wrong in marrying her, it was an emotionally charged decision that had brought pain to all three of them. She, on the other hand, had remained alone since, which wasn't much better.

Timothy Blue / EI / M: Emily,Family.

Tim gives another complacent sigh,Stopping himself from rolling his eyes.Was she serious right now?

"Are you- "

He stops himself quite hastily,Taking a moment to think it over.Tim wasn't going to start this now - Here.It was hardly appropriate as her trainer.

"H - Its nothing.I guess I'm just exhausted.Its been a long few days."

He manages to mumble,Glancing away and following her into the seat.Tim sits against the door frame,keeping a decent distance between himself and Emily.

Staring out the window he watches Riley and Emmas soap opera,Confusion rushing through him.None of this seemed to make sense,His head not really processing it all.He didn't want to.

I don't know how much of this car trip we really want to write out so I'm just going to generally blow through it, looooll.))

Emily | Eventing | Tim, fam

Emily wanted to prod further, but decided against it. Camden, however, saw right through it and took the silence as opportunity to bombard Emily with questions. "Auntie Emily, why are you sad? Is it because my mommy and daddy are fighting again?"

Emily's tan eyes fell on the child with a sudden peace, a sudden compassion. Her own problems and history seemed to completely fade when she was caring for this kid. Her entire demeanor changed as she spoke to Camden. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the couple beginning to walk towards the car. "No, Cam. I'm okay, see? I'm smiling. People don't smile when they're sad."

All too wise, Camden gave an incredulous look. "You do. All the time."

Before Emily could reply, the two got back in the car, an even tenser silence now in the atmosphere of the car. A long car ride ensued with a surprisingly small amount of traffic. After the entirely silent trip, Riley drove the vehicle into a residential neighborhood filled with middle-class housing. It appeared to be no different than any other as they wove their way through a sea of two-story houses and garages, fenced in yards and sidewalks. Finally, they pulled into the driveway of a small brick house with hunter green accents, a tan woman with short hair and a questionably Latina heritage on the lawn, watering her plants as she spoke on the phone with someone. She waved to the car, and Camden's eyes lit up. "Auntie Cara is here!"

Riley gave an amused chuckle. "Yeah, bud. She lives here." Emma and Emily were silent, one definitely more irate than the other.

Keenan | XCI | Open, Conrad (someone PLEASE interact with him. PLEASE.)

As Conrad was walking his gelding into the barn, looking for a place where he may find stall assignments, he heard the shrill blare of an audio output behind him, which even made the most bombproof of equines flinch just a hair. In a deep, booming announcer's voice, he heard the already obnoxious sound of his younger brother's voice made ten times worse by the amplifying of a microphone. "Ladies and gentleman, I present to you, Conrad Kellison, lover of all women... and horses... and... men..."

Conrad turned his head to glare at his brother, but he couldn't find him. Then, he felt a gigantic flake of hay hit his curly-haired head, which caused him to start coughing up a fit. Removing the hay with a bit of distaste and piling it on the side, he looked up, still combing his hair with his hands, for hay was now everywhere on the previously clean young man. There Keenan was, in the hay loft, his voice projecting... everywhere...

"Can I help you?" Conrad's voice held quite a bit of annoyance, a look of the same demeanor quite visible on his features.

Timothy Blue / EI / M: Emily + Fam.

He seemed to perk up a little as Camden spoke,Both at the young man's confidence and his words.Aunty Emily?Well that meant - the young man gives a relieved release of breath,Looking to Emily with warm eyes and relaxing into his chair a little.Although the atmosphere was tense,Tim's mood had certainly shifted to be a little lighter.

Tim had stayed silent the whole ride,Just thinking things over,Readjusting to settle into his seat a little more, Each time narrowing the gap between him and Emily without meaning to.

By the time they had reached the suburban arena Tim was lulled into a light doze,His head leant to the side toward the window as his expression was soft.He finally looked relaxed,Peaceful even.But as the car pulls up the young man jolts away,Wincing as the seatbelt locks at his sudden jerk.

"We - We here?"

He asks a little groggily,Looking to Emily then out the window.

Emily | Eventing | Tim, fam

Emily gave a small smile in acknowledgement. She nodded as Camden excitedly bounced in his carseat. "I wanna see Auntie Cara!"

Emily made quick work of the carseat straps and the pair got out, both Emily and Camden wrapping her in a big hug. Riley gave Tim a small smile as Emma got out of the car, slamming the door. "Don't mind her, she's always like that, unfortunately."

Emily went into the house, completely bypassing the trio on the lawn. Riley grabbed a few of the bags, looking Tim straight in the eye. "Hey, man, I kind of have to get some stuff off my chest regarding Emily. Do you want to go for a walk later?"

-Heather noticed the two men as she had over heard one of them which caused her to laugh a bit to herself, her mare would come up to the pasture fence as she takes a apple that the young brunette had saved for her-

Tim was relatively slow to move from the seat,Taking in the outside view as everyone United again.The blonde didn't know what to do with himself,Glancing from Emily to the new relative to Camden and his mother over and over.

He's shocked into moving as the Door slams,Chuckling good-naturedly as Riley speaks.

"Well I thought Emily kept us on edge - Seems she had a run for her money hmm?"

He comments,Really having no clue of the tension between the two women.Tim was then a little taken back at Riley' s proposal,how did he trust him so soon?But still he gives a nod,Following Rileys lead by grabbing a few bags too.

"Sure Mate - I could use some exercise.And to know a little more about Emily - She's very much still a mystery to me.."

He speaks as though he was joking, Although his eyes couldn't help but follow her up toward the house as he spoke.A light curiosity was behind his gaze,Tim really just had the urge to find out about her.She seemed so shut off about herself.

His blue eyes return to Riley once more with a questionable and nervous look.Tim didn't exactly know the house owner,And wasn't sure as to what was even going on.He just hoped he could follow the young man as Emily had gone without him.
