As they walked along the beaten path, well, not really walked. Benny walked, but Sara rid, there was a silence that over tooken them. Benny listened, realizing that this silence was not natural, and seemed out of place. There were no birds singing, no animals creeping about... nothing. He couldn't hear anything, and it made him uneasy. As to breath the silence he spoke, his voice peircing the silence as if he had cut it with a knife. "Later we can both ride, much letter... Maybe after the ball if Devon lets you, but I think he'll want to come along to.." Benny winced at the thought but then quickly stopped hismelf. He didn't know if Sara had a thing for Devon and he wondered if she would tell him all that was happening now. He should be more careful. "I can't dance either, but I don't worry about it to much.. I had watched so many people do it before, and it didn't look that hard..." He realized that he would not get much sleep tonight as he would want to practice, not wanting to look a fool or out in the open, dancing wrong. "I'm sure Devon will pick something dazzaling and perfect for your beauty, he does have good taste..." Even if Benny didn't like Devon for who he was, he realized that Devon really did have good taste, what with dresses and champaine, masquarade balls and such. It was a wonder the man was actually who he was, seemingly to have it all in the beginning.
Devon, Benny knew, was a strange creature. Benny just knew. He didn't know how he knew... he just did. Devon was something demonic, and even through all the hate that clouded over Benny's mind, there was still that string of sadness, feeling bad for him. How must if feel like to wake up everyday and realized that you have everything, which basically means nothing? Waking up with an empty feeling, only to have it filled in a bad way. Benny shivered dangerously from the thought. He could never imagine it. "It's kinda cold... " He said, trying to hide the shiver with a lie of weather. It was hard though, seeing as the sun was still perched high in the sky. Though he realized that it would go down soon anyway. When it would be just above the horizon they would have to turn back and get ready. He thought about if for a moment and then with a sly grin he asked her what was on his mind. "What do you really think about Devon?" he asked her, grabbing the reins as the horse started to go down the other fork on the path. They had to go the short distance, not the long one.
He wondered what she thought about Devon. Did she like him just as much as he liked her? There were so many questions buzzing around in his head that he received a headache, full force. He dropped the reins, them hitting the side of Meggie, and rubbed his aching temples. "Uhhh... I can't think straight." His hands flew back to his sides, as his voice spoke out...He realized that he had dropped the reins, and so he quickly grabbed them, wanting to have at least a little control if something should happen. His headache increased as they rode on. He knew that if he didn't get something for it, then it would turn into a pounder. He rubbed his temples again, this time with one hand, and looked up at Sara. "You look like a princess, sitting atop there..." He told her his thoughts. His green grey eyes shifted nervously, realizing what he just said. To get rid of his anxiety, and the akward moment he stopped the horse. "We can stop and rest here for a minute, theres a beautiful stream over there and we can rest. Meggie will probably want something to drink." He told her, dropping the reins. He went to the other side of the horse and held out his hand for Sara, wanting to help her get down.
