"My Two Hearts"
Matt,Kitty
Beth and Festus all made it back to Dodge...in a few days of
riding..They were all exhausted. Matt knew Beth wanted to explain why
she was in Dodge in the First place..but,, But also knew she needed to
recuperate from this ordeal. he was going to set her up at the Dodge
House,but after what happened.. Kitty suggested that she stay with her
at the Long Branch... In her rooms.that way she could keep an eye on
her.Matt agreed, and Doc looked them all over. Kitty insisted she was
fine..But when Doc saw her face,he wouldn't have any excuses. Doc,
Matt's the one with the Bullet wound...take care of him..Look young lady
..I'm the Doctor,and after what you and Beth have just been
through,..Humor me..OK? Oh Curly OK? That young Lady is very impressed
by you you know that don't you? What she said. Why? She said you
saved her life out there. Curly I promised her I wouldn't let anything
happen to her...
and i kept my word. that's all. anyways, how's Sam
and Newly? Changing the subject are you? No! How are they? Newly had a
headache for a while , but he's fine. And Sam? He'll be fine ..he's
stubbon like his boss..! Don't you get Foxy with me Curly!... Doc, just
laughed. No he'll be fine.
I did what I could for matt , but there's
not much out there?... that big Lug will be fine too. he just needs
some TLC if he can find some? OH YOU!
Later Beth, was so
tired..... she was asleep in no time at all...Kitty checked in on her..
then..when she walked into her own room
Matt followed her.. she
sleeping? sure is. she's wiped out..! Matt I'm Sorry I never meant
for Beth to get mixed up in all of this..I didn't know myself what was
happening? when all the sudden ..she was coming through the doors.
Kitty it's not your fault. I tried to do everything possible not to let
her get hurt? And Beth told me you did just that! Kitty I found
the telegram...Oh yeah, Beth told me about that when we were out there. I
had it ,but I didn't read it. you weren't here when it came..so, i
didn't know she was coming? Then when she showed up, she just assumed we
knew..and well...Kit, let's not worry about it tonight. we're all
exhausted! She wrapped her arms around his large torso...Oh, Cowboy
I'm so glad you found us!,Kit so am I!
They both curled up together..on the big brass bed..Kitty encircled in the protection of Matt's arms...
she laid her head on his chest..cowboy? hummmmm ? I was thinking I was never going to hear this sound again! What's that Honey?
she tapped lightly on his chest with the palm of her hand.... "My Heart"
Matt leaned down and Kissed her on the top of her head.....
