The Big News

Kerry had left a few hours ago and Jean had told Kris to take the day off and begin training tomorrow for the race. Kris was also supposed to begin training the horse at Meadow Farms tomorrow all so. She did not know what to do. She had been setting in Wildfire's stall all day thinking about what to do. If she could win the Breeders again that could be great for her career and the money could help her out to. But the Ritters needed her to ride for them and they needed the money to fix what Kerry had messed up. The races were not on the same day the Breeders was a day ahead of the other but she could not train for both and be ready for both. How could she make this decision? She just sat there thinking when Junior walked up. He came up and set down in the hay beside her. She was deep in thought and did not even notice he was there. "Hey" Junior said. Kris finally turned her head and saw him setting there. "All hey I didn't even notice you there" Kris said. "Whats wrong" Junior asked. Kerry got Meadow Brooke Farms to let me ride one of there horses in the Breeders in two weeks" Kris told him staring at Wildfire. "That's great" Junior said. "No because the Ritters also got Wildfire in a big race that is the same week" Kris told him. "All that's why your up set you don't know which to choose" Junior said rubbing her back. "Yea I mean if I could win the Breeders again that would be great for my career but the Ritters need me to ride and win this race for them cause they need the money" Kris said rubbing her head. "I don't know what to do and I have thought about this so much that I have a headache" Kris said. "Hey come here" Junior said pulling Kris on his lap. "Listen which race do you want to ride in" Junior asked looking in her eyes. "The Breeders but I don't want to hurt the Ritters" Kris said. "Listen Kris you are a jockey you can ride in any race you want. You don't always have to ride for the Ritters" Junior said still holding her on his lap. "I am I am going to ride for Meadow Brooke Farms in the Breeders" Kris said cheering up a little. "Good and you will win" Junior said kissing her. "Now I just have to find a way to tell the Ritters" Kris said. Kris and Junior sat there talking for a little while when Kerry walked up. Kris was setting on Juniors lap still. Kerry looked at them for a second he missed Kris he wanted to be holding her in his arms and going out with her. He hated the fact that she was going out with Junior. He finally quit day dreaming and knocked on the barn door. Kris and Junior looked up and saw him standing there. Kris jumped off Juniors lap and stood up. "I am ridding in the Breeders" she told him. He knew that she was deciding between Raintree and Meadow Brooke. "That's great" Kerry said hugging Kris. Junior saw him hug her. He knew Kerry liked Kris and he hated it. He knew that Kris loved him and not Kerry but he all so knew that Kris liked him more than Matt but she still went out with him. He trusted Kris and loved her so much. "Ok listen I just wanted to see which race you were going to choose so I am going to get going" Kerry said. Kerry left and Kris turned back to Junior. She could tell that Junior was up set about Kerry. She walked over to Junior and kissed him a long sweet kiss. Junior stood there and ran his hands over her back and then her lower back. Kris pulled away. "I need to go tell Jean about not riding in the race" Kris said. She went to walk away but Junior pulled her arm and started to kiss her again. "Come on Junior we cant do this" Kris said pulling away. "Fine" Junior said playfully. "I will see you later" he said walking off. Kris headed to the houses. Jean was setting on the coach watching television. "Can I talk to you" Kris asked. "Yea" Jean said turning off the television. "Kerry talked to the people at Meadow Brooke Farms and they want me to ride for them in the Breeders" Kris said. "That's great" Jean said. "The Breeders is the same week as the race Wildfire is in" Kris said. "I am going to ride in the Breeders" she added. "So you will not ride in the race for us" Jean asked sounding mad. "I am so sorry but riding in the Breeders again will be what is best for my career" Kris said. Jean stood up and got ready to walk off but stopped and said "Before Kerry became your agent again you did what was best for us and you not your career but now it is all about what is best for your career" Jean said mad and walked off. Kris was upset and she went up stairs and laid down on her bed. Maybe Jean was right maybe I had changed Kris thought. She didn't want her life to revolve around her career but this was the first time in her life that she had a job that she loved and that was worth fighting for. She loved racing and was glad that she got the opportunity to ride in the Breeders again. She laid there thinking for a while when someone knocked on her door. "Yea" she said. Matt walked in and sat down on her bed. "my mom tells me that you are not riding in the race" Matt said. "No I choose to ride for Meadow Brooke Farms in the Breeders again" Kris said. "Do you know who you are going to get to ride Wildfire in the race" Kris asked. "No'' Matt said standing up. "Look Matt I am sorry that I am not riding" Kris said. "Yea me to" Matt said walking out sounding mad. Kris laid back down on her bed and pulled out her cell phone and called Junior. "Hey baby girl" Junior said answering his phone. "Hey" Kris said acting sad. ''Whats wrong" Junior asked. "Matt and Jean are really mad at me for not riding for them" Kris said. "Well I have some really awesome news" Junior said sounding excited. "Davis Farms got a letter in the mail today that said we got in to the Kentucky Derby" Junior said. "That's cool" Kris said sounding happy. "No it gets better" Junior said. "We want you to ride for us" Junior said. "All my God" Kris said screaming."Are you serious" she asked. "yea" Junior said he was glad that Kris was happy. "What did you dad and Dani say about me riding" Kris asked. "They want you to. They may not like you as much as I do but they want to win this race and they know that you are the best jockey" Junior said. "When is the race" Kris asked. "The race is in three months but we are leaving for Kentucky in two months because the horse needs to be there for a while and get use to everything before the race" Junior said. "Yes" Kris screamed. She was so happy. Junior laughed. "Listen I am coming over in a few minutes" Junior said. "ok" Kris said as she hung up the phone. She was going to ride in the Kentucky Derby and the Breeders again and she was going to win both she thought. She was so happy....................... WILL KRIS WIN THE BREEDERS AND THE KENTUCKY DERBY? WILL JEAN AND MATT STAY MAD AT HER FOR NOT RIDING? TO BE CONTINUED!!!
