Kitty Boarded the Train headed cross country. ..for Kansas,
Dodge City to be exact!
Curling her arm deep into his arm.. and holding tight… Well
Matt , I can’t believe your still here … and still keeping the Law ,smirking at
him….as the two entered the Dodge House,… Howie Looked surprised, seeing the
way she hung on his arm… Like ... well,
Like he wasn’t sure what to say ,or if he should pretend he didn’t notice? Marshal! …Ma’am?... Morning Howie ,.. The
Lady needs a room…. Sure Marshal!
Howie said still trying not to react to the forwardness of the guest….
Do you have a preference of room Ma’am?
He asked. Smiling back at him… Yes! one
that overlooks the street if you don’t mind ?,.. and ,… I’ll need lots of hot water.. gals gotta ,.. warm
up.. Oh, Yes Ma’am I’ll see to that I’ll
set you up in Rm. 4 it’s right up front... looks all over Front
Street...Ma’am, It Miss !.. she said. Miss Dolly Winters!
Well Dolly I have to get back to the office, Matt started to
say… then , Oh, now Matt,.. you could
help with my things… then we can talk ,Catch up…come’ she didn’t give him the
chance to answer… just directed him to the stairs. Rolling his eyes,.. he headed up to the
landing.
Once inside her room,… where do you want these?...he
asked. Oh, just anywhere… Matt, You act like we’re strangers….. relax I don’t
bite. Matt we were close once,!…Now
Dolly!.. the last time you were in Dodge .. it wasn’t a … waving her hand in
the air, Why Matt I don’t hold any grudges… and I promise I’m not here to cause
any trouble. I don’t even care that Rad
Meadows and that woman live here … she can have him now ! I’ve changed Matt,… I’m looking to Bigger
and Better …. Smiling up at him trying to wrap her arms around his large
frame… Backing up and grabbing her hands
,.. Dolly we were a long time ago.. and….
relax Matt…. Say , why don’t you buy me Dinner? Then we can talk.. I’m Famished!… shaking his
head, Oh, well ..OK.. I’ll come back and get you ….
As he left the Hotel,.. None too soon ….. he saw Doc headed
for the Long Branch… Hey Doc,.. ! Matt!
Come’ on Law Man,.. Buy an old tired
Doctor a drink? Matt was more agreeable
to buying Doc a drink than Dolly Dinner… Matt? Doc started, You look like your
running from a Fire,… what’s… shaking his head, Matt walking along side Doc,.. Doc!,.. I got a
problem… Matt, Kitty will be back real soon… I know you get annsy when she gone
… but it’s only been a few weeks … Three Doc! Three!... Doc, just swiped his
Mustache, come on Marshal tell me all
about it! They sat at a table in the
back of the Saloon…
Sam, Two Beers Please,…?
Coming right up Doc! Ok, Matt
what is it… I thought you’d be Happy since Kitty will be here day after
Tomorrow… she is still coming in right?
Matt now twisting his face, and puffing out a breath,.. . Yeah Doc,.. but that’s just the Beginning of the
trouble…now confused,… Why is Kitty coming home trouble…? Well Doc see,… It’s
Dolly! Dolly? Doc asked still
confused. Yep, Dolly and before he could finish, Well there you
are, I figure I’ll wait to unpacking for
now… and decided I didn’t want to
wait like I said I’m Famished… Dolly
announced as she pushed her way through
the doors. now noticing Doc, Well
Hello Doctor Adams. One look and Doc now
knew what Matt’s worry was. Tugging his ear, rubbing his upper lip,… Miss
Winters. Oh, come on Doctor … why so Formal,.. It’s Dolly. Doc just stared at Matt! Oh I see the Problem… Good Luck with
that!... and then rose… Matt I have things to do in My Office… see ya Later…
and quickly started for the door..
Doc?... Oh, Glad I’m not you!..
chuckling under his breath.
Doctor don’t leave on my account, Dolly said, as
Doc was walking towards the doors. No,
No…. still snickering… Unfortunately , I’ll be around for the FIREWORKS! Again all Matt got out was DOC!? Well
then Marshal… Let’s go eat!
