My family, “My” Choice!
That evening.., back at the Hotel ..fair to be a very quiet one… Kitty seemed to be very somber…
Matt, not sure really how to ..or just what to say to her? Or if he should just let her have time alone
to sort things out..? They went for supper,…He and Doc went about normal conversation…both noticing
That she barely said a word, nor did she touch much of her food.? Finally Doc, reached over placing his hand atop of hers … Kitty honey, are you feeling alright? She didn’t answer right away… Kitty?
Huh? Are you feeling alright? Oh, yeah .. I’m fine. Why? She ask. Well you haven’t touched your food.. he said. Oh, I guess I just wasn’t that hungry after all. Look you two finish,.. I’m going to go back to the room ….. I’ll go with you Matt spoke up… No, No you stay here and finish your supper.
I can get there alone. Then she stood up and started to leave, Matt reached for her hand…Kit, you sure your alright? Just shaking her head… to acknowledge.. She walked away….
Matt turned to Doc,… should I follow her? No,…No …give her some space… Matt this has been difficult
She needs to process this. You need to be patient. Doc I want to help her! I know that Matt… I know that… So do I. But, the best way we can do that is to let her …take the lead… she’ll let us know what she needs… Doc, when have you ever known Kitty to ask for help? Matt Sometimes I find it hard to believe, that you’ve known this woman as long as you have,… but I’m going to chalk this up as … worriment on your part… No, she may not come right out and ask? But, we’ll know… we’ll know. Doc I just hate seeing her in such…. Me too Matt !
Later, Matt returned to the room… Kitty was going through her usual routine… she had changed ..and was sitting at the Mirror.. getting ready to brush her hair… He quietly sat on the bed… I brought you some Pie
just incase you got hungry… looking at him through the mirror…Peach? Of course. She smiled slightly…
Thank You, I’d like that… but, maybe later… we can share it..? Pour us a drink? while I finish…
Matt got up poured them both a drink… handed her one.. put his down , unsure of his next move….
reached for the hairbrush in her hand…? They both stopped for a moment… as if talking with their eyes… she let go…he leaned down ..she slid in a bit and aloud him to sit behind her… he proceeded to brush out her hair…. After a few brush strokes… Matt could feel her weight fall against his body….
With that …he let his arms fall around her… Kit …I’m so sorry …. Shhhhh!… Don’t Cowboy!
So he …just held her tight…she dropped her head back…to rest on his shoulder…they were now cheek to cheek…. They sat that way for what seemed like forever…. Finally … Hey, Cowboy…Yeah?
Didn’t I hear you say something about Pie? burying his face in the nape of her neck laughing….
Yeah!… com’on.. It’s over here…he helped her up….they walked over to the Bed…
She was sitting up on her knees… Matt was feeding her the pie… he now had drizzled with Brandy…
Ummmmm! This is Good…. Kitty was licking her Lips…where it had run down… Ahhh ! Wait one Minute? What? I’ll do that Ma’am… in one quick movement he without thinking… he place is mouth over hers…Ummmmmmmm!.. Your right that is Good! She now realized she was wrapped in his arms
in a tight embrace… They were now staring Blue to Blue! Cowboy? Yeah? I…I… you ok?
He felt her tense up…Matt so much has happened…. Kit ,we don’t need to talk about this…you know that, no Matt … There is so much we need to talk about … Kit, … we don’t have too. Matt, You know I Love you …. Kit, What’s wrong? Cowboy, will You … Will You Just Hold Me? Matt , wasn’t sure what ..was wrong…But, he finished changing.. Then they curled up ..secure in each others arms….
