Brooklyn
"Good, Brooklyn! Good!" Lucas says, his voice eager and encouraging.
Aden's trainer couldn't come on short notice, so after watching me from the fence, Lucas is putting me through some exercises.
"You hold onto the reins," Lucas says, smirking at me, "like the handlebars on a bike. Like they're going to keep you from falling off."
I tilt my head at him. "Well..." I hesitate. "Aren't they?"
Lucas laughs, looking up at me from his place on the ground next to Heathcliff.
"No," he says gently. "The best riders barely even use the reins. You've got to learn how to communicate from here.
He shocks me, embarrassing me even, when he smacks his thigh.
Lucas doesn't notice my discomfort, instead moving to Heathcliff's head and unbuckling his bridle,
replacing it with a halter-a head harness that has no reins at all.
Then, he attaches a long, long lead rope.
"Well, some of us aren't as invincible as you are," I say. "Nor do we have your experience."
"You don't, but you will," Lucas says with a smile.
I bounce up and down as Heathcliff trots in circles around Lucas, who stands at the center, the end of the long lead in his hand.
I'm scared at first, not having anything to hold onto.
Lucas even makes me put my arms out to the side like a bird, to make me avoid clinging to Heathcliff's mane for safety.
But then, as I get the hang of it, I start to understand what he meant.
I really had been holding on to the reins for dear life.
