Aurelie spun around.
Two familiar hazel eyes stared back. A lock of black hair fell in his eyes.
“What are you doing in here?” Tobin Moray demanded.
“I’m riding a horse in the show,” Aurelie snapped back. “What are you doing here? Does your band need hay?”
“I know who you are. You were that girl that ran into me at that last performance… you didn’t even apologize!”
Aurelie frowned. “Yes… I did.”
The guitarist frowned back, then reluctantly shrugged. “Maybe you did.”

Anna was jumping up and down, “Oh my goodness, Aurie! When is the dinner?”


“Well, all the really good stores are on the other side of the city.” Anna leaned against her horse and pondered. She tapped her chin before smiling.


“I have the perfect dress! I only wore it once and you can borrow it. You’ll look amazing!” Anna spoke excitedly.
