Barbara sighed as she watched Zoe across the yard then hid herself away in Malteaser's box, soothing the edgy chestnut. "Easy girl...." She glanced up as she heard someone outside, turning when Malteaser pulled away and backed up. "Easy Malt..." She murmured softly, watching the woman carefully.
'wow, she's beautiful...' Barbara caught herself slightly, reminding herself she had to work. She turned as Matleaser nickered then snorted, tossing her mane. "Malt?" She asked softly, moving closer, stroking the horse's neck softly. "What is it girl?" She turned again to watch the woman.
"Oh, I get it... vet right?" Malteaser snickered and nodded. "Alright, excuse me Malty."
Barbara ducked out of the box and approached slowly. "Excuse me?" She adressed the blonde cautiously, her voice light but clear.

"Good looking horse you've got there. Look's like she's got some foundering on her front feet there though." Lucy moved forward, holding out her hand. "Dr. Sandford. Lucy."

"I... pardon?" Barbara asked, a little bemused. She paused then added. "Miss Delany... Barbara." She shook Lucy's hand lightly, stunned that this beautiful woman had understood exactly what was bugging Malteaser instantly.

"Do you want me to take a look at her?" Lucy asked, pointing to the mare, open the stall and going in quietly, lifting up and inspecting both the hooves. She placed then down gently, pulling a needle from her bag and giving the horse a quick shot and coming back out.
"You'll have to have her shoes replaced, maybe even go without them for a few weeks, then she should be fine." Lucy smiled.

Barbara smiled softly. "Thank you so much." She replied, looking over her shoulder as Zoe began to approach, moving closer to Lucy, seemingly claiming her. "This might sound a little forward but... would you like to go out tonight?" She paused then hurriedly added. "If you don't have anything else planned..." She looked away, biting her lip a little nervously and blushing slightly.
'What the hell Barbara?' She berated herself. 'Are you mad?'

Lucy smiled. "Sure. I have a few more rounds after this, but I should be done by 7."

Barbara smiled slightly. "Alright... I should... probably get back to work." She glanced back as Zoe came still closer and leant close to kiss Lucy's cheek. "Be safe."

"Of course." Lucy replied, heading down the barn to check up on some of the other horses.
