Jess had finally been asigned the horse she was to treat as her own. Candy Apple Pie, a paint mare who she had fallen in love with in the fields. Jess had been inspecting the horses, playing with a few of them and Candy comes pushing in and nickers to her. Jess was taken at that moment. Then she had spent a day or two trying to get this specific horse. Then she had and she had been so happy. Cleaning all her tack and brushes for this day. Tiem to make the horsie shine.
When Jess drove upto the stable block and parked in the car parking lot she was in high spirits. Wearing faded jeans and cowboy boots, with a tank top and a hoodie on over it. Her brown hair was pulled up in a ponytail. Jess pulled out her dark blue halter and leadrope, grooming kit, and braiding bands. Before walking towards the barn Jess shoved the braiding bands into one of the empty grooming kit pockets. Jess looked up into the sky before heading to the barn. It was nice and sunny. It may have still been morning, it was eight o'clock, but it was already nice out. Jess might jsut have to lunge Candy.
When Jess got to the barn she opened the big sliding doors and left them open. they'd be opened later, she was just the first to do it. There wasn't much activity at this time in the day. Horses had already been fed breakfast about two hours earlier and put out if they needed it. Now people just had to work with them. Jess made her way down the aisle. She stopped outside stall ten and made a kissing sound. The mare in the stall looked up. "Hey baby," she said and scratched her nose.
She walked away jsut long enough to leave her grooming stuff at the cross-ties. sHe was walking back to Candy's stall when she tripped. A rake was just laying across the aisle and she hadn't noticed it. She threw her hand sin front of ehr and landed with her face pressed to the cement. "Shit," she said and pushed herself into a sitting position. The halter and leadrope in her lap. A pouting frown on her lips.

Caleb rolled out of bed, running a hand through his short hair. Pulling on a pair of jeans and a tee, he grabbed an an apple and some carrots before leaving. Walking slowly down to the front door, Caleb bit into the apple, the juice dribbling down his face. His easy stroll wasn't interrupted by anyone or anything and he quickly made it to the barn. He went into the tack room and grabbed a halter, lead, and some brushes, as well as shampoo, before heading out. He set up the hose and left his things where they were before going to get Hershey.
Approaching Hershey's stall, he whistled softly. Hershey's large head appeared at the stall door, ears pricked forward, warm brown eyes bright. Hey, boy. Ready for a good wash? He slipped Hershey's halter over his large head and attached the lead before opening the stall door. Hershey slowly followed, his hooves striking the soft ground with anticipation.
Caleb hooked the lead up to a ring on the wall to be sure Hershey wouldn't be going anywhere. He lightly brushed Hershey's coat, getting off as many of the loose hairs as he could. Pausing, Caleb pulled his tee over his head and tossed it to the side while he grabbed the hose. The sun beat down on him, warming his skin. Turning the hose on, he sprayed Hershey, he tossed his head playfully. By the time Caleb turned off the hose, he was more or less dripping from his head down. He shook his head, spraying water everywhere. He laughed as Hershey stomped his hoof, as though impatient for the shampoo.
Caleb grabbed the shampoo and squirted some into his hand. Unfortunately, there was very little shampoo left in the bottle. Caleb rubbed the shampoo into Hershey's neck, wondering how he was going to get more shampoo. He'd have to leave Hershey here, since no one else was around. Washing off his hand, Caleb checked the lead rope, shortening it as well as tightening it. Be right back, Hersh.
Caleb jogged to the supply closet and moved a few bottles around, looking for the right bottle, while dripping water all over the place. Damn. He'd have to clean that up later. He grabbed the right shampoo and turned, walking out of the closet, only to watch as a girl, oblivious, tripped over a rake that had been left in the main aisle. Caleb cursed. He'd come in closet to the tack and supply rooms, not seeing the rake and moving it himself. He sprinted forward, quickly reaching her. In one swift motion, he'd leaned the rake against the wall and squatted beside her. He was just in front of her, dark eyes worried.
You okay?

Jess looked up at the barn roof for a moment before pulling herself to her feet. All she ahd wanted was some shampoo and she got a face full of cement and a bruise on her leg. Yes she probably would have one. Sighing in irritation Jess pulled herself to her feet. Straightening out her clothes before leeting ehr hair down from its ponytail only to pull it back up. Then she finally realized there was a boy standign there. A really hot boy. No, not boy man.
On the inside Jess groaned. Hoping like hell that he did not just see her fall flat on her face. Then Jess saw that the rake was leaning against the barn wall and groaned out loud. He had seen it or he wouldn't have picked up the rake. Oh, and there he goes asking if she is doing alright. Jess nodded before grabbing actual words from somewhere inside of her. "Yeah i'm okay, don't know about the floor though," she said with a chuckle. She put a smile on her face and swallowed, with a dry throat and mouth.
He was amazingly beautiful. Wet and without a shirt on. She stepped upto him and actually looked up a few inches. Oh my god. "I'm Jessica Dalton, you can call me JT though," she introduced herself. Trying to pretend that the falling hadn't happened. "And you are?" she inquired, looking cute. As she talked to him though, Jess made her way around him a little bit to the tack room. She walked backwards into it so she could grab what she needed. A towel, shampoo, mane and tail detangler and some lavender oil. The lavender was to massage into the coat after to relax the horse.
After grabbing those items Jess turned back to the man. She was eager to here his name. She also guessed by the fact that he was wet that he had been washing his horse. She wondered if it was beside the spot she had picked out. MAybe, maybe not.

[ooc: HAHAHAHAHA greatttt post!]
Caleb stood as she stood, sliding his hands into his pockets. He watched her, eyes still tinged with concern. Yeah, I'm okay. Don't know about the floor though. Caleb glanced down at where she'd fallen, eying the floor playfully. Looks like it'll make it. Couldn't have hurt it to bad, what with you being so... He seemed to search for the word. Petite? He laughed softly at himself. He stood where he was as she stepped closer. He raised a brow, a slow smile forming on his face.
I'm Jessica Dalton, you can call me JT though. And you are?
I'm Caleb Camrak. Most people call me Caleb, but I guess if that's too long for you, you could call me CJ. His voice was light and playful in its deepness. He watched her walk to the supply closet and grab some stuff. He saw the flash of a towel and realized that that would probably be a good idea. He followed her into the supply closet, however small it might be, to grab a towel and detangler. Noticing the lavender oil, he grabbed some himself. Hey, maybe Hershey would like smelling like a flower.

Jess looked at the floor to and then back up at Caleb. A smile spreading across her face. He was funny and she liekd that. Not to mention his body. Jess closed ehr eyes for a moment. No more hot body thoughts, she told herself silently. Openign her eyes and laughed with him. When he gave his name she nodded in understanding and flicked his nose playfully. "Well CJ, do you mind getting my horse with me? You could save me from anymore killer rakes," she asked palyfully.
Jess loved to tease new people when she met them. It was one of her little habits. Jess walked towards the tack room door and turned back to see if he was coming. When she saw he was comign she kept going, walkign backwards so she could continue to talk. When they got to Candy's stall she opened it and slipped a halter on the mare. "So how long you been here?" she asked. They might as well get to knwo each other if he was to protect her from rakes. After all it was a fultime job right. Nod, nod, wink, wink.
ooc. sorry bought the godmoding

Caleb watched Jess glance away before looking back at him and closing her eyes. Interesting. Was he that bad looking? He was thinking about this when she flicked his nose. He let out a laugh, gray eyes sparkling with amusement as he watched her back out of the room. Well, CJ, do you mind getting my horse with me? You could save me from anymore killer rakes. His newfound nickname sounded slightly foreign but he liked it when she said it. He grinned and followed. You never know when one might jump out and try to take your life. We wouldn't want that, now would we?
He followed her to the stall and leaned against the side of it. Holding out a hand, he let Candy sniff him before lightly rubbing her muzzle. She's a real beauty, JT. He moved away so she could slide the halter on Candy. So how long you been here? He slid his hands into his pockets, more so that he had something to do with them than he was uncomfortable. About a month. But most of my time has been driving Kaylin to the pizzeria and the mall. You?

"I guess they could kill me if they tried hard enough but i know an ancient art of wodcutting," she joked about the killer racks with him. She saw his grey eyes sparkle and that made her hazel ones start to shine. Good, so he didn't think she was a complete looney or that she was stupid. Jess smiled and led Candy out of the stall. Closing the door behind them. She noticed that he stuck his hands in his pocket when he answered her. When he said her nickname she liekd it. More than coming from other people. "Who's Kaylin?" she aksed.
"I've been about a week, just got this girl too," she said and patted Candy's neck. Jess turned to smile at him before leading him and the mare down the aisle to the washracks. She cross-tied Candy in the one opposite the aisle to Caleb's. Or what she thought was Caleb's horse. Comign out of the stall she pulled off her hoodie. Her tanned skin lookign stunning in the sun. She was so hot[just my opinion]. Grabbing a hose Jess turned so she was half facing Caleb and half facing Candy. "That your horse, he's a beaut?" she asked before complimenting him. Turning the water on she sprayed Candy's legs and laughed when the mare bobbed her head like she loved it.

I guess they could kill me if they tried hard enough but I know an ancient art of woodcutting. Caleb laughed, the sound deep and happy, at her mention of knowing such an ancient art. He moved out of the way as JT led Candy out of her stall. Who's Kaylin? He walked beside her as he spoke. Kaylin is my younger sister. Why? Jealous? It was clear that he was just joking. She's an all-around good kid.
He approached Hershey and lightly patted his rump before picking up the hose and spraying Hershey down once again, getting himself wet once again. He paused before turning and spraying JT with the hose, drenching her. He laughed again, murmuring a sorry, but not meaning it at all.

Jess looked downa t the ground when he asked if she was jealous. Okay maybe just the teaniest bit, he didn't need to know that yet. she had just met him. Jess smirked at him over Candy's back as she sprayed the mare down. Candy bobbing her head almost the whole time. Jess was just turning aroudn to grab the shampoo when all of a sudden water cascaded onto her. She realized it was from CJ and laughed out loud.
Picking up her own hose she squared her shoudlers and sprayed him. My gosh was she lucky only part of her tank top was white. The bvottom part had white on it, the upper part was blue and red with a little white. Part of her bra showed through the shirt but she didn't notice. With another laugh Jess dropped her hose and squirted a blob of shampoo at CJ. Her laugh echoed in the barn. "Cold yet?" she asked teasingly.

Caleb laughed as Hershey butted him. He stumbled closer to Candy, and rested a light hand on her flank so she'd know he was there. He wiped some water from his brow just as a squirt of shampoo hit him from his chin down to his broad chest. He looked down at it for a moment before lifting his head to meet JT's gaze. He wiped some of it off and patted it onto Hershey's flank for later use. He slowly walked around Candy, giving her a wide berth, gaze on JT.
With one smooth motion, he grabbed the hose from her hands and lifted her using his other arm. He covered the nozzle a bit and grinned at her. Not even close. He said this in answer to her question. He aimed the hose at her head, still holding her against his chest, and sprayed her from head to toe.
YOU'RE USING THE SIGGIE!!

Jess laughed as he came over to Candy. When he wiped the shampoo off his face she giggled. Covering her motuh with one calloused hand. Not bad calloused, jsut a little bit. Still the giggles boiled over into laughter. When he came over to her she eyed him uncertainly. Shaking her head but still laughing when he took the hose and picked her up. "You wouldn't dare," she managed to get out before water hit her head drenching her from head to toe and more.
JT squealed and laughed at the same time. After a few seconds of being drenched she pushed the water away. "Caleb Carmak you are a very bad boy," she tried to tell him in a serious tone while grabbing the hose. Jess grabbed the hose and sprayed him in the chest. One hand still resting there, the other was holding the hose. She giggled again and then the hose slipped from her fingers and that hand went to his shoulder so he couldn't drop her.

I would and did dare, Miss JT Dalton. He smiled at her. Caleb Camrak you are a very bad boy. Caleb pretended to be wounded. Boy? You think I'm some little boy? He pouted. He leaned towards her ear and whispered, But I think you're right about my being a 'very bad boy.' He smirked, raising his eyebrows as she grabbed the hose. You wouldn't dare. But apparently she would. The spray hit him in the chest, head on. Well, if he wasn't drenched before, he was now. He wiped at his eyes when he felt her hands on his chest and shoulder. He smiled slowly. Worried I'll drop you? He lifted her higher and shifted his arms, making it feel to her, he was sure, that she was falling. But his arms easily slipped around her once more. Well, I have to say. I did take a shower today, but extra ones don't hurt.

Jess smirked sexily when he said he did dare and he did do it. When he whispered in her ear a shiver ran down her spine. Not the cold type, the good, i think i love the boy and he makes me tingly inside type of shiver. It wasn't one she normally got with a boy she had jsut met. Oh wait, he was no boy, he was a man. Jess laughed when he told her she wouldn't dare. "I would and did dare Mr. Caleb Carmak," she teased. She could be herself with him, no posing or trying to be someone else. "Yes," she squealed as Caleb lifted her into the air and dropped her. JT's breath huffed out when he caught her in his arms. Hers naturally went aroudn his neck. "No they don't," she breathed out. Her face was closer to his then it had been earlier. Not on purpose, okay maybe a little on purpose.

Caleb shook his head at her, amused. He held her tightly to be sure she didn't slip from his arms and end up on her arse on the floor. That would not be good. He had to uphold a good image, after all. He smiled slowly at her answer about him dropping her, especially as he got a great response when he nearly DID drop her. He laughed as her arms went around his neck. I'm not gunna drop you, JT. Trust me. He grinned. Usually, he'd be holding Kaylin and she'd already have been dropped and gotten back up to slug him in the arm. Thank goodness JT didn't look like she was about to punch him. That... would suck. He dropped his voice as he whispered, You know, most people would call this indecent exposer and actions. What do you think?

Jess nodded and held her hands tighter together. she believed him. HE was cute enough to believe. Jess looked up at his face and sighed. A piece of hair was hanging down and she had the urge to move it, so she could see his face better. When he started to whisper she blushed and looked down before up into his eyes. "I think i'm goign to kiss you," she siad and leaned her head forward. Her soft, wet lips touched lightly agaisnt his and she opened her mouth a slit. It felt so good to do this. Jess sighed into the kiss and her grip loosened around his neck a little bit.
