Chapter 1
Part 1
Don's POV
I'm not ready for my life to spiral out of control. I have trouble as it is. Living with an abusive family and trying to hold a stable job at 13 is hard. My crush left for New York in June and is currently going to school there. It is almost Thanksgiving and I have no idea if he's coming back. I hope he is, I miss him a lot. I struggle with being alone and not having him to talk to about the abuse I suffer.
I shake my head and stroke the horse I'm caring for. I work at a horse farm and today is the biggest race of this season. I look down the line of stables and take in the number of horses here. 8 of them, counting mine. My horse was a dun color with a long black mane. His name is Oakhurst and he is the best horse at the farm I work at. Today is the Best Horse Race.
I try to put the bit in Oakhurst's mouth, but he rears and slams his hooves into the sides of the stall. I grunt and back up to the door of the stall. I desperately try to slip the bit back into his mouth, but again Oakhurst rears and slams his hooves into the stall. I push the door of the stall open and dart out.
I lean against the door and watch the huge horse. He throws a fit like usual. I've always had trouble trying to get the tack on him. Today is worse than an other, though.
"Well, well! Look who it is!" A voice behind me makes me spin. I gasp and stare at the person who spoke. I don't believe it! He can't be here! -
Chapter 1
Part 2
Curo's POV
I walk up behind Don, who's leaning on the gate of the stall. I smile as I think of the shock he'll get.
"Well, well! Look who it is!"
He spins and gasps as he sees me. A look of disbelief flashes across his face and he seems frozen. He shakes his head and blinks several times. He lunges toward me and hugs me.
"I-I don't believe that you are here! How? When?" Don squeezes me tightly. I laugh and hug him back.
"I came last Saturday. I flew here in a plane. How are you?" I ask, pushing him away.
"Good." He drops his gaze and avoids my eyes. He turns away, back to the horse. I sigh and shake my head. He's lying. Obviously.
"Don, what's really going on? Tell me the truth, please." I touch his arm. He turns and looks at me. I see the pain in his eyes.
"I'm being abused. Worse than before. I've also been threatened with losing my job. I can't control Oakhurst. I just-just know that if I lose my job I'll be in trouble." Don sighs and looks down. He pulls his sleeve up and I notice a large bruise.
"That's one, isn't it?" I ask, eyeing the bruise. It's black,purple and blue. The skin around it is green and yellow.
He nods and touches his shoulder. "There's one here, too. I have several on my back and legs, as well."
I sigh. "You should really tell someone about this." Don shakes his head rapidly.
"I can't do that. I'll be in a worse place than I am now." He looks really scared.
I pause, thinking about something I've heard of people doing. "How's this? I'll take you back to New York with me if you want me to. We can go to school together and everything. You'll be safe there. I'll help you too."
Don's eyes light up. "I'd love that! But I-I can't. I'm sorry. I have to stay here and work." He sighs and looks really upset.
"Well, how about you come with me if you lose your job? Would that be better?" I ask, brushing his black hair away from his face. He sighs again and shrugs.
"I'd still have to go home if I lose my job. I'll still be beaten."
I frown. I know this kid's been through a lot and I want to help him. We've been friends since 5th grade and he helped me with English. I want to help him, but don't know how.
"Hey, let's just focus on the race. You remember Bay Rum? That's the horse I'm racing." I smile and laugh as Don's face brightens.
"Yes I do! Can I see her?" He laughs and looks like he's about to flip.
"Sure. Let's go!" I grab his hand and pull him towards the stall that Bay Rum's in.
I love this kid. I just want him to be happy. I hurts me to see him in pain. I just wish he could have a better childhood. -

Chapter 1
Part 3
Don's POV
I skip after Curo as he leads me to the stall where Bay Rum is stabled. I gasp as we come up to the door of the stable. The horse standing inside is a dark bay color with a black mane and tail. She has a white star on her forehead and a small white star on her chest. Curo swings the door open and I notice that one of her front feet is white as well.
"This is Bay Rum?" I ask incredulously. Curo laughs and nods.
"But she's so big! She was really little last time I saw her!" I smile as the horse rubs her head against Curo's chest. He has always loved his horses and they have loved him back.
"She's also the fastest horse I own. She's recovered from her burns remarkably well." Curo laughs and feeds Bay Rum sugar from his pocket.
"Tell me something. Has Rosa been abusing you more since I left in June?" Curo looks at me and I feel a gentle blush spread across my face.
"Yes. After you left the abuse got much worse. She started using the whip on me. I don't know what to do." I sigh and speak quietly. I know Curo cares about me. I know he wants the best for me. He's my best friend. I only wish that he'd let me know what his feelings were for me.
"Oh. Maybe I shouldn't have left. I'm sorry." Curo looks at me guiltily and sighs. I know that he left for good reasons and he kept his promise to call me at least once every week.
"No. It's fine. You left for good reasons. Besides I need to go back to my post. I have to go." I smile gently and turn, starting to walk away.
Curo grabs my shoulder and spins me around. I start to complain because he hurt me, but he quickly silences me by kissing me. On the lips. He pulls away and smiles. I gasp, blushing wildly.
"Wh-what was that for?" I try to grasp the words to form a question.
Curo smiles, "I love you, Don!"
I gasp. There is hope after all! "I love you, too, Curo."
Curo pulls me closer and kisses me again. He releases me and I turn to walk back to the stall where Oakhurst is. My head spinning, I try to focus on what just happened. CURO KISSED ME!!!!
I can't get past that. I should have asked him if he loved my as a boyfriend or as a brother. OH, WHY DIDN'T I ASK HIM???? -
Hope you people like this! I want to be a famous writer when I'm older. Please comment on this!
