ARISTA'S BOYFRIEND

Chapter 4

At the stables Damon already had two horses saddled and fed when Arista Showed up.

Hi Damon.

Hey Arista, you ready to go riding.

You bet.

Damon then went over to Jesse and helped Arista get up on him. He then got on his horse and they went for a ride. Once off the castle grounds Damon took Arista to the beach, there they rode for hours. Damon would always ride a little behind Arista to see her ride, but it was just an excuse for him to look at her. Damon thought Arista was so beautiful. The way her blonde hair fluttered in the wind, the pristine glow of her smile was like a shimmer of sunlight, and her eyes had the glimmer of diamonds reflecting on the oceans surface. He was so enchanted with her beauty but he new he was not good enough for her. She was the daughter of the great sea king and he was just a simple stable hand. A little later he stopped and took Arista to a spot by the waters edge. They sat and talked for a long time. Arista told him about her life under the sea, about Luke and how she broke her heart. Damon told Arista about his life, how his parents had died when he was very young and was raised by his uncle, how he and Eric were best friends growing up, and how he always longed for the chance to be under the sea. As the sun set on the water s edge Damon and Arista got back on their horses and rode to the stables. Arista got off her horse and hugged Damon.

Thanks, Damon for listening.

Sure Arista, anytime for a friend.

Arista blushes, waves good bye, and walks to the castle. Secretly she is crushing on Damon and wonders if he feels the same way about her as she does him.
