Miley
I lay on the bed in Sally's house. I wriggled and winced my eyes open, I was laying in a totally unfamiliar place in a strange bed and house I didn't even know. I sat up slowly and groaned and pushed the duvet cover laying over me back. I looked around and gently swung my legs off the bed slowly and landed them on the floor. I pushed myself up and stood and stretched.
I walked around the room looking at everything in the room and the cupboards. The floor creaked every time I walked and I winced every time the floor boards creaked. I then walked over to the window and sat on the windowsill curled up in a ball hugging my knees not knowing what to do at all. So I just decided to stay where I was. I then decided to go out of the room and go downstairs. I creaked the door open slowly and walked out of the room. My hair was all in knots and horrible, I didn't know what to do with it so I just left it. I then realized that I was in pyjamas and then I remembered everything that had happened. How i'd fainted and everything else then I took the thought away and went back to what I was doing.
I kind of guessed that I was in Sally's house so I realized I had to careful. I went down the hall and found the stairs and made my way down the quietly and when I got to the bottom I peered round the corner not really knowing what to do, I just wanted to find Sally. Then everything would be ok.

Sally was in the kitchen, singing. She had a teatowel over her shoulder, and she could smell the fresh scent of baking. She reached out a hand and opened the oven, she pulled out the tray and grinned, the cakes looked delicious. She took them out and placed on the cooler, before going to her mixing bowl. Picking up the whisk she continued to stir the mixture for the sdecond batch of cakes. She opened the cupboard and took some new cases out.
As she filled the new cases with the cake mixture, she heard the familiar creaking of the stairs. She stopped what she was doing and went into the hall. She saw the lounge door closing. Walking to it, she put her hand on the door and opened it, smiling as she saw Miley inside. "Miley! You're up! Come and havee a cake, I've just baked some!" 4ally held out the door for miley and pointed to the kitchen.

Miley
I could just hear Sally but I didn't want to disturbe her. I could get told off for it, I used to so I just left. Then When Sally came round the door she sort of shocked me but I didn't mind, It was Sally. I smiled to her as she came in.
"Hi Sally! You've baked cakes, mmmm. They' re nice, arn't they?" I asked but I guessed Sally wouldn't really know why so I said.
"They were horrid when I had them before!" I explained then I got up and walked out of the door sally was holding open.

Sally laughed and welcomed the young girl into the kitchen. She pointed to the plates of cakes, "Why don't you try them to see if they are nice?" Sally smiled, Miley could be slightly strange sometimes, but Sally was starting to get used to it. Sally laughed at Miley's comment, before saying. "Grab a cake, then go to the wardrobe in your room and pull on those cream trousers. And anything else old you can find." Sally laughed, those cream trousers were jodphurs, and she wanted to get Miley riding today.

Miley
I looked at Sally then at the cakes and then at Sally. It wasn't that I didn't trust Sally, I did. I was just a bit unsure.
"You need to try one first" I said picking one up and holding it out to Sally then having my mouth firmly shut waiting for Sally to take the cake. I listened to Sally next comment and wondered why she wanted me to get cream trousers, but I just shrugged and smiled.
"Ok" I explained smiling but then my face went serious again.
"But not until you eat this cake first!" I explained. I didn't want to be rude to Sally I was just curious, a bit unsure and slightly worried and I hoped that Sally understood and didn't get angry at me.

She smiled to Miley and shook her head. "I have already had three." She patted her tummy, "Any more will make me sick and fat." She smiled, pushing the cake back towards Miley. "Why would I have had three if they weren't nice?" She said, telling her. "Just eat it, " Sally said gently.

I frowned, I didn't know that Sally had eaten three. I did trust her I was just so careful and really needed proof, I didn't like to ask Sally but I just had to.
"eeeaaa" I hesitated and just was so unsure.
"One more" I said shoving it into Sally. I just needed a bit of reassurance.

Sally shook her head. Miley was very stubborn. She needed to get her out of it. "Just eat it. I don't want to get fat." She smiled she took a bit off the cake and popped it in Miley's mouth. "Nice?" She asked. "Hold on, let me get you some clothes."
Sally ran upstairs and came back with a polo shirt, cream jodphurs socks, chap and jodphur boots. She put an olympia hoodie on top of the pile. "Put this on, please." Sally explained.

Miley
I started at Sally.
"No!" I said to Sally. As Sally put the piece of cake in my mouth I went very alert and my face looked seriously alarmed. I held the cake in my mouth refusing to swallow it and as soon as Sally left the room I spat it out all over the floor and washed my mouth out at the sink. I looked for the nearest towel and picked it up and searched for the bin, I found it and chucked the towel and cake in the bin.
As Sally came in I smiled sweetly to her and took the clothes.
"Thank you!" I explained then rushed out of the room as quickly as I could because I realized that when I tried to shut the bin in a rush It had bounced back open. I couldn't believe that I hadn't noticed! I ran up the stairs to the room I was in before and started to get changed.

Sally smiled and walked upstairs to her room to get changed herself. She pulled on her own jodphurs, and changed her top, before heading downstairs. She gave the clothes to Miley and nodded. "Change as quick as you can!" She then walked into the kitchen and saw the bin open.
She looked in it and saw the tea towel and cake, she sighed, but decided not to say anythign to Miley. She called up the stairs, "Miley, you ready?"

I heard Sally and hurried. I pulled on the polo shirt and took a look at it and smiled. I then pulled on the jodhpurs and did them up, Tugged the socks on and then the boot and had no idea how to put the other things on (which were chaps) So I just carried them downstairs. And pulled the hoodie on as I ran down the stairs. I liked the clothes, they were really nice.
"Coming" I said and then I came down the stairs and round the corner to where Sally was. I smiled to her then looked at the bin briefly hoping Sally wouldn't realize. Then I smiled back to Sally.

Sally saw Miley and also saw her glance to the bin, but said nothing. She pointed to the chaps. "Want help putting them on?" She asked, slipping her own feet into long riding boots. She couldn't tell if Miley knew what they were doing.

I looked to Sally and then at the things she was holding.
"Yes please. What are they?" I asked Sally and then I just realized that I really had no idea what we were actually doing. I hoped that Sally didn't think I was stupid if I asked, I looked to Sally.
"Ummm.... What are we doing?" I asked hoping Sally didn't think I was an idiot.

She smiled, and tapped her nose. "I'll tell you later." Sally slipped onto Miley's leg, putting the elastic strap around the bottom of her boots. She zipped it up and clipped the popper into place, making sure the zip was on the outside. She did the other done, "All done!" Sally smiled, "Come with me and i'll show you." Sally took miley outside and down to the farm. They arrived at the stables and walked to Joy's stable. Sally patted the grey gelding and smiled to Miley to do the same. "He's harmless."

I looked to Sally hopeful that she'd tell, then she told me I'd have to wait. I could sort of remember wearing theses kind of clothes before but they weren't like this really but it was kind of similar. I smiled to Sally, I didn't mind her not telling me but I sort of wanted to know, but I was excited now anyway.
I watched Sally put the things (chaps) on my legs and then smiled as she finished. I followed her out and smiled to her. It was cool around Sally's garden. There were loads of animals! Miley looked at the horse and then at Sally.
"Umm..... r.ight" I said looking at the horse and keeping my distance from it. I looked to Sally then back at the horse staring.

Sally laughed, and took Miley's hand, putting it towards Joy's muzzle. "Stroke him, he won't do anything." She paused, "I promise Miley." Sally smiled and opened up the stable door. "Stroke her for me, while I tie her up."

Miley
I looked to Sally and as she took my hand I snatched it away as quickly as possible, It returned to my side almost immediately. I was half shaking of fear of the horse. The memory came back to me and all of a sudden it was like it was a completely different me, I was terrified of the horse all of a sudden. I just watched Sally and then horse extra carefully making sure it didn't touch me and it didn't hurt me so I kept well out of the way. I tried to smile confidently to Sally but it came out so madly, really nervous making it even horse so then Sally would notice I was terrified. I couldn't let her know, I was just going to be really carefully and try not to have anything to do with horses, hoping Sally just thought I didn't like it. Not that I was scared, that's what I wanted Sally to think and I hoped that she did rather than knowing the truth. The truth that I'm terrified of horses because of an experience.

Sally was getting impatient. She was trying so hard with Miley, but he girl was being a little madam, and really a bi*ch. if Miley wasn't going to co-operate, then Sally would be like Miley was being, to see if Miley liked it. "You go back to the house, " She said shortly, but not that meanly. "I'm going to ride." She paused, "There's a chicken, tomato and ham in the fridge. You can make yourself a sandwich." Sally nodded towards the house, and went to the tack room, picking up Joy's saddle and bridle. She got back to the stable, and put the saddle over the stable door and the bridle over a hook just outside the stable. She picked up a body brush and started to brush the flakes of mud and dust off Joy's grey coat.

Miley
I looked at Sally and then the horse, Sally just didn't understand and she never would. I didn't care one bit about not riding. I'd be quite happy if I never did it at all in my life, especially after my experience. I looked to Sally and was feeling really cross with her for not understanding how I felt about this.
When Sally told me to go to the house I shrugged and nearly burst out in tears because she just didn't get me. But before I did I was feeling upset and really cross now, I just burst and was furious.
"You'll never get me. No one ever does and everyone hates me and just gets cross with me for whatever I do! It useless" I said to Sally then turned and ran into the house.
Anyone that tried to help me never understood me and just made me not trust people even more, I was almost scared of Sally for what she might do.
I ran up the stairs and into the room I was in earlier. My bag was in there, a scruffy old rewind rucksack. It had all my stuff in, I hardly had anything but a few things I had of my mum and dad. I got my rucksack and pulled out the tracksuit bottoms I had been wearing before, dirty old and rewind. Also the trainers, they were dirty, but they would do.
I pulled the boots of I was wearing, the trouser things and the things Sally had helped me put on (chaps). I decided I was better off on my own, and that's the way it was going to be. I was going out for a while and not coming back till later today. I didn't want the day with Sally one bit now. Especially because I was also scared of what Sally would do to me. When I got the trousers and chaps off I pulled the tracksuit bottoms and trainers on and picked up the rucksack and flug it over my bag and walked down stairs.
Sally had said that I could get some food so I did, I went to the fridge and saw the bread and got it out, got the chicken out. I layed it all on the table and buttered the bread and cut some chicken and put it in the sandwich, I made 2 sandwiches, 4 halves. I then put everything away and looked in the fridge for something else to add to my sandwich. I found something called mayonnaise. I smelt it and shrugged and then I brought it out of the fridge and then spread across both of my sandwiches. I then found something to wrap the sandwiches up in and put them in my bag.
I decided to leave a note to Sally, just incase. I got a pen and paper and wrote:
I've gone out for a while
In quite messy writing. I left it on the island and got my watch, put it on and walked out of the house. I went through the front door and then walked down the driveway.

Sally sighed. Miley could go off like that, she needed to learn. being alone for a while would do her good. She smiled weakly at Miley, watching her trudge into the house. She felt bad for a second, before finishing her grooming on Joy, then lifting up his hooves, cleaning each one out by one. She placed the last one down softly, before getting the bridle. She placed the headcollar round his neck, slipping on the bridel, gently lettingnhim take the bit, then doing everything up.
She picked the saddle up, putting it on slightly far forward. She did up the girth, leaving it on a loose hall. Then she walked over to the tack room, picking up some brush boots, then put them on Joy. She led |Joy out onto the yard. Before tightening the girth. As she slid the saddle back into place, she felt guilty. Should she go and see Miley? Shaking her head, she put a foot into the stirrup, mounting up and kicking Joy on. Then she pulled back on the reins, dismounted, and led Joy into his stable again. His ears pricked, and relaxed again as Sally loosened the girth. She ran up the stirrups and twisted the reins, before shutting the door and running into the house.
She saw the note on the table and felt bad immediately. She sighed, and left it on the table, running out into the drive, she saw miley. She ran towards her. "Miley!" She walked towards her. "I'm sorry. I know how you must feel." She smiled and opened her arms to her, seeing tears streaking on Miley's face. "Come here." She said gently.

Miley
I walked out of the gate and the stopped and looked at the horse briefly and whispered to myself.
"See you later Sally" I said, I just wanted a hug and for Sally to understand me but I knew she never would. No one ever did. I carried on walking until I heard my name being called, I panicked It was Sally. I was now worried she was going to do something to me. I picked up the pace walking pretending that I didn't hear Sally and carried on casually. Well trying to be casual anyway but I felt that I knew it wasn't coming out right. My body was all stiff and panicked more than I actually was.
When I heard Sally say that she understood, I didn't know weather she meant it.
"Do you really, properly understand?" I asked Sally. When Sally held her arms hoped I hesitated and then smiled.
I hugged Sally and wiped back the tears and they stopped.
"But can I still go out? I want to meet some other girls in the village, please Sally. I promise I won't be long" I said picking at my trousers. As I picked I looked at my hand, I pulled a face. A load of mud had come of my trousers, they were really really dirty. I looked to Sally.
"Umm... If i'm aloud to go out for a bit could I maybe borrow some clothes. I don't want the other girls to judge me or tease me or something like that" I explained to Sally hoping she'd let me out and hoping if she did I could borrow some clothes. I hugged Sally again feeling really at home and trustworthy of Sally.

Sally waited to see if Miley would come. She nodded, " I know how you've been. I was like this when I was younger. I understand. I promise." Sally grinend and hugged Miley, she handed her a tissue to wipe the tears away.
Sally looked down at the girl and nodded. "Course." She glanced at her watch. "Be home by six for dinner, ok?" Sally smiled, nodding. "Come on, let's go upstairs and get you some clothes." Sally understood what Miley meant.
Sally paused, before saying. "Miley, I know you don't want to ride since." She decided not to say about the accident. "But, well, I think you should. And Joy is such a great horse. I'd love for us to go out on a hack sometime, or just spend the afternoon cleaning out the horses?" She held her breath. "What do you think?"

Miley
I smiled to Sally. I listened to Sally, I was confused, Sally was like me?
"You grew up how I did, you have been what I've been through!" I explained, Sally made me feel so much better knowing that she went through what I've been through and what I was going through.
I grinned happily, Sally was going to let me go out, I was so happy. I smiled widely.
"I will be home by then, promise. Thanks for letting me borrow some clothes, quick. The quicker I get some clothes, The longer i'll be out!" I explained. I didn't want to be to Sally, I just wanted to meet some new people and explore the town.
As Sally mentioned horses I tried to stay cool. I hoped I wouldn't have to get involved in them. "I'm not riding. I'll go near the horses and help out with the chaos but have nothing to do with the actually horse. I mean like I don't go anywhere near the horse or touch it or anything. But i'll help muck out at clean tack and any others chaos" I explained to Sally. I walked through the door of the house then remembered I wanted lots of time having a wonder around then tugged at Sally.
"C'mon I wanted some time, lets get some clothes!" I rushed Sally then rushed up to the room I was staying in and rummaging around in the cupboard that was in the room waiting for Sally. I knew Sally would know where some great clothes were, that were cool. I just knew Sally would know.

Sally laughed. She squeezed Miley's hand. "Yes, I have. You've seen a lot worse than me, but that's either fate, or just unlucky. Come on sausage, let's get your clothes." Sally grinned and nodded. "Of course I'm letting you out. How old are you, thirteen? Or what? You have to be allowed some freedom!"
Sally frowned. "OK, be back on time, or dinner will be cold." She then turned Miley to face her. "I need to talk to you about the town and where to stay away from, ok?" She paused, she didn't want Miley to end up the way she did. As they walked into the house she explained. "Stay away from Primrose, it's a posh avenue, and if you go there, the people there won't let you off so easily. Avoid all the alleys, the only one you can go to is Shuttlefield Park. It's a short cut to the park, that should be fine." She smiled to Miley. "That's about it. Head to the park or stay in main town and you'll be fine."
Sally nodded. She would have to gently get Miley going for the riding element. Maybe when she got closer to the horses she'd be fine. Sally nodded. "That's ok. Let's get you some clothes then." As they walked up, Sally thought of what she might be able to get from the wardrobe. Miley walked into the room she was staying in. Sally shook her head, "In here." She pointed to a room across the hall. She picked out a nice top with short sleeves. it had a few flowers on it, around a smiley yellow face. She also picked some skinny jeans, and held them out to Miley. "These ok?"

Miley smiled to Sally.
"Ok. Thanks Sally" I explained smiling and waiting for the clothes. I listened to Sally about where not to go, Sally was right there were some horrible people and some really rough places.
"Ok i'll stay away. I'm pretty good at getting away when I need to or hiding" I explained to Sally not sure if this was a good or bag thing really.
I went into the room i was staying in but then when Sally said a different place I spun round and then followed Sally in the room and saw the clothes and smiled.
"Yep these are fine, thanks" I explained then I saw my bag and looked to Sally.
"Do you have a different bag I can use, this one is wrecked and really old and horrible" I explained to Sally then added.
"And it kinda smells" I explained smiling to Sally hoping she did have another bag I could use.

Sally laughed and nodded. "Your welcome, my darling." Sally smiled. "I know, just try to stay from the places anyway." She looked at her watch. Then sighed. "We've taken up a lot of time talking and stuff, do you want me to drive you to Shuttlefield Park?" Sally held the clothes up, just to check for dirt marks if there were any.
Sally smiled and was glad Miley liked them. "There probably not the best, we'll get you some for your wardrobe soon. That cool?" The woman glanced at the bag and smiled. She picked up a jack wills bag, that was purple and pink. "Sorry, it's from last season. Arianna got it, then got bored of it." She smiled, handing the bag to Miley. "You can keep it." Sally walked downstairs, indicating for Miley to follow. "Oh, and Ari and Ella are coming for tea tonight, is that ok?" She smiled.

I looked to Sally and smiled.
"I will" I explained and smiled again. Miley smiled to Sally and took the clothes and nodded at her question.
"Yes please, that would be nice!" I explained and hugged Sally quickly then let go and took a step back. I smiled as Sally handed me the bag.
"Last season, Who cares, it's just a bag. I'll keep it forever, Thanks!" I said and took the bag Sally handed me the took my bag off my back and took everything from my old bag into my new bag and then smiled and picked the Jack Wills bag up and handed Sally the old bag to put in the bin.
"It's ok, are they nice?" I asked Sally as I followed her out of the room and down the stairs smiling. I smiled to Sally following her.

Sally smiled, but was slightly shocked at Miley hugging her. ally gave her the bag and patted her on the head. Sally laughed. "Tell Ari that, she'll be shocked. She's a fashion queen." Her smile grew as Miley asked if they were nice. Taking the bag, Sally replied. "Of course, you'll like them." She hurried down the stairs. "C'mon. We need to be quick, I have to stop somewhere first. " She put the old bag in the bin and opened the door, clicking open the car. "Go get in." She said to Miley, locking up the front door.

I giggled slightly as Sally said that Ari would be shocked.
"I will if you want me to" I explained to Sally smiling wondering what Ari would react like, i hoped she wouldn't react bad if i said it, considering that I'd never met her before i hoped she wouldn't mind if I said it.
"Ok good, will they like me?" I asked curiously, i hoped they were nice and understood me. I rushed down and after Sally and came out of the door.
"Ok kl" I said and climbed in the car and shut the door behind me waiting for Sally to get in.

Sally smiled and put an arm round Miley. She squeezed her shoulders. "It will make her laugh, I know that!" Sally grinned and climbed into the car. Sally replied with a nod. "They're funny girls, don't talk about either of their mums though. Ari's mum died, so Ella's parents adopted her, until Ella's Mum and my brother, Ella's dad, split up. I took in Ari for a couple of months, she now stays at the academy full time." Sally smiled. "They'll like you though." Sally clicked the engine into gear. "I need to stop somewhere to get you something." sally drove into town.
