It was funny seeing Aki tensing up even though he tried to pretend there was nothing wehn he attempted to feed Haley with the carrot. Nick made sure he was closely around. he wouldn' thave left Aki alone with the mare had he not witnessed how well they got with each other.
The saddle wouldn't be too comfortable for AKi, but he guessed this should be alright if they weren't in for a long ride. "just wait here first?" Nick smiled at Aki and led him a few steps away from the horse, then flapped the saddle over Haley. The mare had made him proud by not even moving for an inch. Nick, of course, rewarded his childhood friend with a cube of sugar. he smiled and patted the mane of the horse and leapt up in a swift move.
"Aki? can you follow me? there's a boarding platofrm at the other end." Nick said, moving Haley to the other side of the ranch. haley went forward obediently. Nick was so happy for his gentle friend, and he made her know that as well, laying forward to hug her neck.
the boaridng platform was just a few large steps taht would make it easier for beginners to mount hte horse. Nick came down from Haley to give Aki a hand. "yes, go up the stairs, i am here." he smiled at the top of the few steps, holding Aki's arm as he came up. "here, i am holding her steady. you put a leg around the saddle... yes. Feeling comfortable?" Aki got on the horse without problem, and Nick asked Aki. The saddle was designed for a single man, so he helped Aki adjust so that his belly won't be pressed upon.
"Alright, i am joining you." Nick smiled and got on the horse again, holding the leash, and sitting behind Aki, he gently urged the mare to go forward. "here we go." he smiled, enveloping Aki in his arms while they made their jounrey.
