Aaron looked away from Jasmine, and nodded. "About the same with my step father. I'm not from his blood, therefore he don't give a sh!t about me. No offense to my brothers and sisters. My mother loves him to death. I guess she really didn't love my dad that much. The only one that seems to care is my grandparents on my dad's side." He paused, then chuckled softly. "I guess my mother should have had an abortion when she got pregnant with me. Things would have been a lot different without me, and for the better," he muttered, leaning back against the steps.

Aaron looked up at the sound of Dakota running towards him. He got up, grabbed his crutches, and went over to where the filly laid. "I'm here Dakota, m'lil girl," he said, rubbing the filly's muzzle. He, after a struggle with his crutches, finally picked Dakota up and over to the porch steps.

Aaron called out to Mariah in the house, "Mariah! Get me some gauze and a cloth!"

Mariah's head poked out the door, her midnight black hair draped over her eyes. "For what?" she snapped, her tone agitated from worry. She looked at Dakota, and said softly, "Oh, okay." She went back inside the house, fished around the drawers and cabinets for some kind of horse antiseptic. Suddenly, she remembered her back pack with October's stuff. She took off up the stairs, and grabbed the gauze and a cloth from her pack. She figured she didn't have time to go down the stairs, so she slid down the banister. She jumped down at the bottom, nearly tripping over her doberman Dreadful. She muttered a cross word to herself, and went out on the porch. Panting heavily, she handed the gauze to him and said, "Here."

Aaron took the gauze from her, and held Dakota's halter. "You got a leash or lead rope anywhere?" he asked. "I don't want Dakota running off again. So I'll keep her here with me for a bit."

Mariah's shoulders sagged. "Ahh! Deed! I have to run upstairs again?" she asked.

Aaron shook his head. "Not exactly. I remembered seeing Dreadful's leash on the floor by the couch. That'll work just fine," he said.

Mariah went back inside and got the leash. She returned outside again, and handed the leash to Aaron. Aaron took it from her and clipped it on Dakota's halter. He laid the end of the leash on the ground, and put his good foot on it. He stopped the bleeding on her neck, legs, etc with the cloth. Opening the gauze and squirting some on his finger, he applied a thin layer over the cuts gently. He rubbed her neck gently when she was done. "Good greif, Dakota. You're gonna end up all scared up and stitched up as me. I wouldn't forget you, lil' lady," he said, planting a kiss on her head.

Aaron's mind reminded him of Jasmine's question. He looked at the ground and frowned. "I guess," he said. "But its got to be on friend-to-friend terms. I don't want to make any more trouble than is already stirred up." He sighed and stared straight ahead of him.
