A Passion For The Past

[Funloving62]

Missy

She almost dove into bed with him right behind her grabbing her waist and tickling her feeling light hearted and free enjoying the moment and the time they seemed to be granted again. Her eyes sparkled back to him fully as she beamed in happiness her smile light of the room as she grabbed at his waist pulling him down to her. Those lips calling out to him begging for his touch as the fire once again was lit as he pressed his lips to her. her tongue captured his and stroked it kissing him with a deep desire and passion that did flue her fire deep in her heart. her mind and body lost in his soul lost to all that was around them all that was ever happening. all that mattered was this moment and this kiss . She was so deeply in love with this man yes she would give up all fro him just to be near him with him. she wanted to be at his side for the rest of her life.
Her lips parted as she stared into his eyes her hand running though his hair softly.

"Carl you are my world now nothing matters but you and I. This. This is where I want to be. Carl if you will let me I would like to spend the rest of my life here in your arms in your life. I have no choice but to go back and tie up lose ends finish this deal with the university. I hope they will let me stay here and work at the museum but if not. I don't care I will stay here with you... I'm happy here Carl, you make me happy."

She hugged him tight the silence now in the air clung to her skin she drew in a breath trying to remember this moment this feeling embedded it in to her heart and mind as she felt his arms hold her tight caressing her tenderly.

The soft glow of the lantern on the table caught in Missy's dark hair as she lay side by side with Carl on the bed. As he ran his fingers through her hair he noticed shimmering almost gold highlights cascading down as it moved softly underneath his touch.

"My princess" he murmured thinking that that crown of light gave her a royal appearance. He kissed her forehead and cupped her face as he vowed never to let this princess go once she has returned to him from the east.

For now, for this night he wants to worship her completely to let her know that there is no other woman that he wants more by pleasing her in every way posssible. He knew that her breast were sensitive to his touch and so his hands sought out them gently cupping them as he felt her desire grow. And so was the soft spot behind her ear and his mouth found that and gently kissed and suckled there while his hands continued to do their magic, roaming over the tips of each nipple urging them to hardnes and expectation. His mouth moved to her neck and nestled for a moment in the soft hollow between her breasts while his hands moved down to caress one along her thigh and the other down the flatness of her stomach. Then it was his mouths turn to move to worship each aching tip with its warmth and wetness to suck and playfully pull, circle and then inhale first one and then the other. She moved against his mouth murmuring her pleaure. His hands moved again, one to grasp and knead th soft flesh of her butt and the other covering her dark soft mound his fingers threading their way amoungst the whispy curls pulling them away from her soft flesh along her thighs.

She murmured aquiecence again and turned onto her back spreading her legs to provide an opening for his exploring hand. His mouth moved down to her stomach and he shifted his body around so that he was at a different angle his hand that held her butt moving back up to caress one of her breasts His fingers felt the hot wet silky folds of flesh that guarded the entrance to her vagina and he separated them, circling the hot opening and drawing its wetness out and up to the juncture of the swollen folds where her clitoris waited begging for attention. She murmured, loulder now her hips rising pushing against his eager hand.

His head came down into the soft curls and then as Carl turned just a bit more, slipped between her thighs and nestled against the heat between them.

This Night enchanted her soul, her being was one with his every motion she made every breath she took called out to him. Her hands gliding over even part of him memorizing every signal muscle and tightness her eyes followed her hands only leaving her view to close her eyes whenever he would hit a certain spot granting her pleasures beyond belief.

Her hand slide over his chest and to his back as he moved down lore over her breathing quacking with every move. Her hips lifted and fell to the skills of his hands and fingers as they parted her slick yet heated folds.

Moans life her lips as she felt the heat f Hs breath cares her lower softly his lips reclaimed where only moments before his fingers roamed, she Gasped feeling his lips and tongue work as one over her body bringing her hips up to meet with his desires as she ran her hands though his hair almost guiding him where she felt the best at times. But it was all good to her he knew how to love a women. She wanted to please this man and oh did he do so well at this task he took on himself.

"Oh God Carl I love you."

: Her hips started to rock faster the pace increasing as did her breath and panting she was bearing a point that there was no turning back and she knew it and so did he.
She threw her head back and moaned out

"Carl... Carl. I can't I can't hold back."

she felt her self shivering fighting the feeling yet it only seemed to urge him on even more as she felt the climax to this wonderful bliss take place it locked her in a magical; world that only the two of there would enter. her body lost to his control as he lips and pleased her to ecstasy her body flowing with the tides loosing her self to him as she orgsum to the point she didn't belive it would ever stop moaning and thrashing against the bed. Her hands guiding his head and pushing him down for even more if possible.

He looked up once she was through ad smiled to her licking her lips as she moved up his body spraying an multitude of kisses against her.

"I want to make love to you like I never have before my love ."

Carl

" I want to make love to you like I never have before my love"

He wasn't sure if had she said it or he had, but they both shared this same desires he came back over the top of her holding himself poised, ready, his eyes lost in the deep darkness of hers seeing that she had been to a wonderfull place and wanting to go there again and take him with her.
Just as her eyes were shining in invitation, her hands guiding the way slipped between her open thighs spreading the moist folds exposing the pink pulsing entrance to her vagina quivering in anticipation. A forward movement just enough to bring the tip of his cock in contact with that sweet place was enough to let her know that he was ready. As she brought her hands around his waist her legs came behind him to pull him toward her as he thurst into her. He shuddered as their bodies came together as one. Deep inside her she held him. Locked in this oneness he looked in her eyes again and felt drawn into her very soul even as he was drawn into her body. It was if they were already at the peak of their need, already hanging on the edge wanting release but holding back holding on to this wonderfull high looking down in awe into the wonderfull place they both wanted to be, anticpating the leap they were about to take.

They smiled at each other knowing the path they would be taking and sharing the oneness, they let their passion subside until they felt the need to bring it back to the edge again.

Beginings slowly, breathing together, hearts beating together,as their mouths joined creating a union above that matched the one below, they moved again. Each movement was a measured step toward the edge they had hovered over before and as they came closer their antcipation and their movement increased, their bodies moving as one they felt the ground leave them and they hung suspended for a moment. Suspended some where that they hadn't been before. Then they fell, unable to and not wanting to stop the rush of completely giving in to the need, leting it overtake them engulf them pull them into a void of nothingness.

Just as they felt swallowed up by this void they felt the rush of release and as it overook them they began to float, float on top of the cushion of euphoric bliss floating softly down together united body mind and soul.

This moment for ever frozen in time, At least in her mind a precious memoire that would be cherished the feeling of love and unity washing over them both as they both reached that one moment of unending pleasures that could only be shared by two who where truly in love. A special place that only lovers would be granted entrance. the love even brought light to the room, or was it from their eyes they both shinned greatly in happiness and satisfaction her breath still a bit raspy as she stared to her love her hand reached up to caress his cheek, her gaze so intense. her words a mere Whisper but she had to say them aloud, not just so he might hear her heart he already knew he felt it. But she had to say it or burst.

"Never, Ever, IN my lifetime have I ever felt like this. So loved, So wanted. My heart links to yours Carl. You are the Part that completes me. I was not whole till I came into your arms till I felt your caress your kiss. You are the missing part of me. Not only the man I love ... but my soul mate. You are part of me now. The Sprits have lead me to you, you to me. This is how it was supposed to be. I am whole now, and its because of you I feel it and I know you do to."

The emotion the truth in her word's echoed into the air as she let her gaze link to his the whole time. those where words from her heart and she caressed his cheek smiling brightly knowing in the morning they would have to part but only till she could get the work done in Baltimore that they both knew had to be done then they would be together again and this time she had no plans on leaving with out him ever again. She moved up to press her lips to his the kiss long passinate her body whole being floating to his as the kiss brought out even more love and devotion to hi her arms lifting to his neck caressing the back of his neck so soflty as she was lost in her ow kiss to the man that held her heart.

Carl

The mornig sun shining through the bedroom window and the chirping of the birds outside woke Carl. He looked down at Missy nestled in the crook of his arm, her debony hair tumbling around over his shoulder and on the pillow that they shared. He was content to just lay there holding her so close feeling her warm body against his under the soft covers. He closed his eyes and created in his mind a picture of the two of them together side by side on the bed not wanting to pull the covers back just yet and wake her. His hands wanted to reach out and trace those places that he saw in his minds eye, but he held them back wanting to remember this moment of peace and tranquility he felt.

Her quiet breathing made him think of her tawny breasts, with their dark nipples rising and falling beneath the blanket. his mind traced a curved line around each supple globe as if his hands was cupping them. She moved in her sleep her legs changing position, her thighs parting, her hips rising a bit so that he imagined her rounded mound still damp from their lovemaking in the night, soft curly haired rising and falling with each breath she took. below her mound between her inner thighs, he visualized that wonderful place his hands and mouth had explored just hours ago. He smiled remembering the delicious heat and wetness, the aroma of her excitement and the feel of her as he had moved inside.

She rolled over in her sleep and he was disappointed for a moment not to have his mind linger a bit more in this special place, but then as the covers rounded up over her curved backside, he grined recalling how his big hands had kneaded these soft mounds of flesh as he had pulled himself deeper inside.

She moved over the top of him and he was surprised to find that he was not aroused but that his mind was thinking about all these parts of her so that he would remember them after she left for Baltimore. Her mouth was in the hollow of his neck and he felt the softness of her breath against his skin. Her arms went up around his neck and as her dark eyes opened, she smiled and said. "Good morning Carl."

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

"Good Morning Carl"

She smiled so softly to him her lips pressing to his sweetly tenderly those eyes lingering to his.

"I don't want to get up, I just don't want to break this moment but we both know we have to I have a 10 Am flight. The only good thing is the sooner I go the faster I get back?"

Is was more of a question the an answer it seemed to her as she spoke it aloud she pressed her cheek against his chest lingering it there breathing in his scent, fingers gliding over the warm flesh behind his ear. As she smiled then sat up.

"I have something for you"

"She lifted up and pulled the tiny quill earring from her own ear and reached to his ear as if asking permission as he nodded while she pulled the stone post from his own. And then replaced it with the one she wore only moments ago then to her ear she placed his stone.

"I will give it back when i see you next and not take it off till i see you remove it yourself. this is my vow to you so we will see each other again soon i want my grandmothers earring back"

Said smugly in a joking way trying to make the moment light hearted as well. she kissed him once more and as slowly slide to the side of the bed holding back the tear that threaten to slide down as she lifted and moved to get dressed knowing there wasn't much time she still had to get to the airport and check in that would take time. but last night was the most special time she had ever spent with him and it lingered on her mind she felt his hand to the small of her back rubbing her as if grabbing her courage to do this.

I know.. it is for us as well as our people that i much do this. I love you Carl ... but its time for me to leave. the silence was cut with the ringing of her cell phone on the chair both knew who it was and what it was about Brain would be calling her to remind her of the flight. She answered and nodded.

"OK brain I will be right there be ready... No...We will discuss this on the plane bye"

The phone not only hung up but shut off till she got to the airport in case Carl wanted to get in touch with her. Carl helped her gather her bags only a few things she left a bag there he helped her to the car as she stopped and looked back Midnight was yellowing the horses whinnied and even a coyote e sounded a mournful howl Carl looked at her and hugged her tight telling her he would miss her yet he still kept a lot inside. She stood there not wanting to go but knew she had to.

"I will miss you so much and I will call you tonight before bed or if I find out anything sooner I promise."

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

He couldn't find any words to say to tell her how much he would miss her. Even after the short time they had known each other he felt as if she were part of him and her absence would be like having a part of him gone. He just stood there wordless, listening.

The gift made him even more wordless as he felt a lump come to his throat and seeing in her ebony eyes the feeling that went with the gift he had to hide his tears also.

His hands spoke for him however as they rubbed the small of her back reasuringly, holding on to the physical connection that their bodies had made. He knew that would be the hardest part, not being able to reach out and touch her even just to hold her hand make that connection that he felt was so important. For him it was this conection that gave him the ability to say the words he knew she needed to hear and that he needed to say, not only for her but for himself to compliment that intense physical craving he had for her. That need to be one, first with their bodies, then with their minds and finally with their souls.

By holding her tight he hoped he could capture enough of her spirit to last through the next days until they could reunite with the love they had come to know and learned to share.

He closed his eyes feeling her body so close to his. "I love you" he said simply, knowing that was enough, and even after she was gone he felt her. As he headed for the barn to do the chores she was still next to him her physical presence on his skin her image in his mind and her name on his lips.

The rest of the day slipped by with out him even noticing as he set the wheels in motion to do all the things he had planned before her return. A call to the Johnson brothers, carpenters in the area led to a promise that they would be starting on his new barn first thing in the morning and would have it completed in a couple of days. The cabin was already finished and his furniture in the big house would add to the decor he was planning for the mueseum idea. A few more artifacts he had stored in the outbuildings would more than enough to get Missy started decorating when she returned and the mound would remain intact maybe some paths could be mowed around it and one across the top so that when people arrived they could stare off into the river bottoms beyond and below. He hoped they would feel the spirit like he had the first time he had climbed to the top of the mound imaging how it would be for the people who had built it a thousand years ago.

There were no crops to havest for another month so he had time to paint the house, Hell he might even get to that swing he had started on when Missy had shown up on that fatefull day not long ago. He grinned and shook his head thinking about how things happened and felt that this was a time that there was a reason for it happening that was beyond his scope of understanding yet so simple and natural. Yes he knew in his heart that he and missy had meant to be, were desineed to meet and fall in love that even if he had tried to keep it from happening he couldn't have.

Rummaging through the refrigerator just befor dark he found it bare and having a hankering for some pizza, he jumped in his pickup and headed for town to get some groceries.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

She almost turned around once she got the long dust end of the drive. She did stop and she wanted to turn around or at least look back but she knew if she did that there would be no leaving. she swallowed hard and nodded, saying to herself I will be back and very, very soon. She hit the gas and tore out of the drive heading to the hotel to pick up Brian.

He was waiting for her at the entrance as he opened the door threw his bag inside and then she took off to the airport not even a hello. Brain stared at her the whole time not saying a word till they got to the gate ready to board the flight attended asked for their tickets and Brian smile and handed her his and hers to her saying.

"This is our honeymoon".

And old trick they use to use to get bumped up to first class. His arm went around her waist and she cringed. the flight attendance smiled and node to them telling then the first class was available and they would be welcome to take seat A1 and 2. As soon as she was out of sight she nudged Brian in the ribs and moved away from him.

"Don't touch me again Brain, you make my skin crawl"

Brian stop mid way down the ramp and stared at her as she walked on in to the plane. she did sit down on seat 1 an and he followed behind lowering down beside her the take off was silent he said not a word and she refused event he food or drink all she waited was to be with. Carl and back in the farm where she felt she belonged. brain looked at her and took a deep breath.

"Your really into this Carl guy aren't ya? I can see it in your eyes you look at him the way you use to look at me. no I think its even more isn't it?"

This was the time she finally looked his way and nodded.

"It's a lot more then that Brian. Carl is my soul mate. I have never felt like this. I'm selling my place I'm leaving Maryland to go live there with him. I need your help to convince the board that the museum idea will work and be good for all of us. I'm leaving no matter what the out come is. my place is with him."

Brian could only sigh and looked away he knew he had lost her now to another man and even another state. So he would at least try and help her to be happy he owed her that much. the plan landed and they both got into their cars and drove home. Missy knew she promised Carl she would call him before she went to bed but she had to hear his voice she called the house. The phone rang and rang and rang he must be out working the farm of something she sighed to herself and smiled hearing his voice on the other end on the machine.

Well, hello sweetheart where are you... I'm home stopped in to change and then heading to the university then I will call you later. I miss you already and I love you even more Carl.bye."

She hung up the phone and headed out to the office in hopes of taking care of this very soon.

Carl

"Oh Hell," Carl said as he pulled into town. "Why not eat out tonight, it had been a while since he had been off the farm for any length of time and now that Missy was gone he felt a hankering for some company. The neon sign above Joes bar and grill blinkng on and off caught his attention. beer and pizza, he thought and maybe someone to share a joke or two with. He stepped inside and saw a couple of neighbor kids shooting pool and an old friend of his at the bar. His friend smiled and held up his beer.

Carl nodded and walked over and sat down next to Sam just as Joe cracked open a bottle of golden light and shoved it in front of him. "Thanks, Sam he said smiling, " here's to you.' Sam returned the gesture.

"Been a while". he added "Whats up."

"Nothing much". Carl said. He was usually tight lipped in the bar, he knew how gossip spread and he didn't want any false rumors about the mound to go around.

Sam knew about the mound and the pretty young woman who had been at Carls place for the last two days but he knew Carl wasn't going to talk about her at least not right now.

"Pizza." Carl said to Joe.

"Coming right up."

Carl and Sam settled into a nonobtrusive conversation about the weather and the falling price of corn and the terrible war that was going on overseas but they kept their personal things to themselves as they always had.

The pizza came and both their bottles were empty so Carl ordered another round and shoved the pizza over to Sam. "Have some." he said and took a slice himself

"Don't mind if I do" Sam said Together they finished it off and also the second beer "Your turn to buy Carl, reminded Sam, feeling thirsty tonight.

"Sure ".

Joe had anticpated their thirst and had two bottles in front of them before Sam even looked up. A slow country song was playing in the background an old Patsy Cline record *Crazy* Carl lifted his bottle. "Yeh, it's crazy alright."
Sam looked at him knowing he wasn't quite ready to talk just yet and just said back." Sure is Carl. good beer though."

"Ain't none of it bad." Carl said grining All of it good just some's better than others and sometimes it goes down smoother at times too don't it."

"Sure does Sam replied. Their beer discussion was interrupted by, the sound of a female voice behind them. They both looked around and then did a double take.

"Marie they both said, "When in tarnation did you get into town. Carl moved over and motioned her to sit down.
"Warmed the seat up for you Marie," he said brightly. "Sit it on down and Sam will buy you a beer."
Sam feinted a growl, "Mighty free with my money ain't he."

Marie smiled and tossed back her flaming red hair "Pretty dress". Sam said tring to act casual, he was looking at what was sticking out of the top of the red dress however as Marie was built like a brick shit house as the guys would say.

Maire didn't mind she was used to bieng oogled at and and Carl and Sam were old firends of hers, always teasing and flirting with each other anyway.

"Want'a dance." she asked Sam. Patsy Cline was still singing, some lonely farmer must'a shoved a fiver in the machine and punched the same button as many times as he could. "You know I can't dance." Sam whined.

"Yea, thats right Marie retorted. "At least not until you get a half dozen beers under your belt."

She turned to Carl. "How about you honey, you in the mood." she grined knowing that Carl loved to dance.

On the floor they exchanged pleasantries and Maire todl him she was in town for the weekend for the class reunion. "You going Carl?"

"Don't know." he replied and they left it at that.
The music slowed and Carl found himself closer to her than he felt comfortable with not that it wasn't pleasant in fact it was too pleasant and thats what made him uncomfortable. Missy was on his mind and he remembered that she was going to call tonight. He stopped in mid step and Mari looked at him quizically,

"Whats wrong Carl?"

"Nothing." was his reply "Nothing at all his face brightened. he was ready to talk but not to Sam, to Marie if sh'ed listen Sam would just make a joke out of it and he wasn't in the mood for jokes.

"Want'a go for a ride." he said softly.

She looked at his honest face and knew what he was after. Just talk. Carl always had been that way not one to push her into a corner or the back seat of a car he like to talk when he got around to it and respected her space. She needed to talk too and Carl was a good listener her marriage was on the rocks and she was tired of her job in the city. It was a good time for a long all night talk.

"Sure Carl" she said quietly, "How long is this ride gonna be?'

"Oh about six beers apiece>" he replied grinning, happy to know that she was willing to share some of his life with her. "Maybe eight at the most." He motioned to Joe holding up twelve fingers and by the time they got to the bar the cold beer was waiting. " Nght Sam," they said to a baffled Sam "See you in the funny papers."

They giggled as they went out the door knowing they were starting some new gossip but not giving a damn.

Joe looked at Sam, "You paying for that beer." he motioned toward the departing couple. guess I am he said as her raised his bottle and drained it.
"Sure is crazy aint it."

Missy

Pretty little summer dress and sandals she walked in the office everyone smiled and welcomed her back even Bob smiled when he saw her.

"So missy any luck get the old codger to sign."

Missy set her briefcase down on her desk and looked to Bob after that remark with a you've got to be kidding look.

"Didn't you get my messages did Brain tell you what was going on down there? He agreed to termed but that mound is not to be disturbed its almost like a scarred burial ground to them down there you can't touch it. but what can be done is make a museum out of the whole sight the old codger as you put it is named Carl. he's a sweet man and showed me around the place. there are so man artifacts there it would be insane not to let others see the beauty of out ancestors i would like to propose a deal that we open a museum in his late wife's name and that mound is scarred and not to be touched other then enjoyed. and i would like to run it."

Bob was sort of for the idea they would make money and fun the deal get the museum started and he was liking that idea that other would learn of the ways to the natives in the area but that last part hit him like a ton of bricks..

"You ... Move down there and run it no way you are needed here. you job is here Missy."

She looked to him and took a big sigh sitting on the edge of her desk then look up at bob and a few others that had gathered around them hearing the conversation Brain walking in on the tail end of it.

"But my place is there. I belong there it's so beautiful there I feel so at home. Look at what I brought back with me Carl said if I don't head the museum he wouldn't let anyone run it or he would get someone else to fun it. but either way in going back there to run it or not ."

Most stood there with their mouth open staring at her like she had lose her mind she had only been there but a few days and she spoke with such conviction such meaning they knew she meant it and so did Brian. He moved in and slipped his arm at her waist and pulled her close not in a lovers embrace but one of friendship.

"She means it Bob i mean that old cuss he's not one to be taken lightly but missy here has him wrapped around her finger and sorry to say she fell for him. i never seen her look happier that place is something else and we would be losing money if we didn't take him up on his offer and we would lose Missy one way or another this way she still stays with the firm and we could see her and know her work is being preserved and she's still be on staff here."

A quick meeting was formed and all agreed Missy would go to run the place all they needed was his signature and a few other paper work details to be done and in a day or two she would be back beside Carl where she wanted to be she smiled no she beamed as she picked up the phone on her desk and called Carl.
It rang and rang and rang she looked a bit worried where was he at this time of night she hoped nothing happen, maybe he was at the cabin doing some things there was no phone there.

"Carl, all looks well once the paper work is done and details finalized its a go babe. I miss you, and where are you its 11 at night here? I hope all is OK ... call me when you get this please not matter how late .Then number is 555-2467 that's my cell babe i love you. bye,"

She hung up and stayed a bit finalizing some of her deals she had in the words getting them ready to turn over to bob or any that took her place then drove back to her trailer. And still no call it was after one now where was he?

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

"You ain't driving mister," Marie said as she grabbed the keys from Carls hand and jumped into the drivers seat of his pickup.

"Guess not," he answered, actually relieved that she was in the drivers seat. He went around the other side climbed in and opened a couple of beers. Mmarie took off like a bat out of hell, obviously she had plans as they sped down the road heading for Lovers Ridge.

Carl grinned when he saw where she was headed, they often joked about it when they ended up here not being lovers really but just friends. "It was the atmoshpere they were after he had told her the first time they had gone here it was a pretty spot above the blinking lights of town on one side and the ribbon of the rivecurving far below them on the other.

She cut the engine and leaned back in the seat sighing "Remember when this place was jam packed with kids necking and carrying on out here. Times sure have changed aint they Carl, now its house parties they go to making out in bedrooms instead of backseats. Nobody comes here but us oldtimers anymore."

Carl grinned, "Marie wasn't one to not speak her mind and share her feelings." he thought. He absent mindly reached out and pushed at a strand of hair that had fallen in front of her face.

"Now don't start getting romantic with me, Carl we're here to talk remember."

Carl jerked himself out of his meloncoly mood and said. "yes mam .....and look at the scenery." he added grinning.

He took a big swig of beer and when she asked what was new he told her all about Missy and the mound and most of what had happened in the last three days leaving out the details of making love. Not that it would have bothered Marie in fact she girnned and tried to drag it out of him but he felt it was private between him and Missy saying only that they sure enough did it.

Mari giggled"Didn't know you had it in you Carl, I thought that after Molly you would have just sort of dried up into a sour old prune. glad to know your still feeling your oats."

She giggled "If Id' known I d'a got to you first Honey, sure wondered what it would have been to find out how you were in the sack."

Carl chuckled. Guess you'll never know then, cause when Missy gets back I'm fixin' to ask her to marry me."

"Let me be the first ti=o congratulate you then Carl." Marie said softly and leaned over and kissed him tenderly. "And if she don't come back let me know I still have that hankering I was talking about."

So what about you, Carl asked hows your love life he meant to keep it light but Maries face got serious as she told him that she wasn't so lucky. Her husband turned out to be a bum and she divorced him just si months ago, came back home to find herself but maybe thats not where it was at either.

Carl could see tears starting to well up in her eyes and he put his arm around her to console her. She leaned into him and begin to sob.

Four beers later she was done crying and telling the whole story to Carl and he was drunk but not too drunk to remember that Missy was going to call tonight and he was wanting very much to hear her voice right now. "Take me home, Marie he said abruptly we can finish our talk there, maybe make some breakfast, that pizza wore out hours ago.

"Ok she said its a deal if you cook." she knew what a good cook Carl was.

"Gotta pee." Carl said and headed for the bathroom as they came in the door. Marie watched him disappear behind the closed door and heard the phone ring. I'll get it she said and picked it up.

"Hello?" she said her voice a question, wondering who would be calling at this hour.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

She pulled into the drive way and thought she heard the phone ringing. Hurrying up she ran to the door and grabbed the phone.

"Carl..... Hum in here don't hang up.... Carl. Darn it! I missed it."

She wasn't even sure she heard the phone ringing for sure but she picked it up hoping it was Carl on the other end. She sighed as she hung up and checked the machine nothing. she shut the door and went into her room took a quick shower and climbed into bed picking up the phone getting all comfy thinking she would wake him it was after two now he had to be home. She dialed the number and it rang only twice.

"Hello?" she said her voice a question, wondering who would be calling at this hour.

"What the...I 'm so sorry. I must have the wrong number IM sorry if I woke you ."

The women on the other end of the phone didn't seemed to have been awaken from her sleep matter of fact she heard her reply back to her no Hun you didn't wake us we ain't in bed yet are we Carl. Now who did ya want to speak to? This isn't my place. It's Carl's.

Hello... HELLO ANYONE THERE? "

She was speechless on the other end as she heard the woman say those words to her. Then she heard Carl coming into the room mumbleing about something where the women held the phone to him.

"Marie Darling what do you want for breakfast, I'm cooking? What are you doing on the phone I'm waiting fro a call?"

She gasped hearing him then when he took the receiver from her and Said hello ,she hung up. All sorts of things running though here head as she sat there staring to the phone then she heard it ring, was it him calling her back was it? It had to be, but she couldn't talk to him right now. Not now not if he had another women there with him not even twenty four hours after she left. She let it ring and ring and ring then he finally must have hung up then again it rang and rang. This time she picked it up and slammed it down hard then took it off the hook she laid back and thought staring at the ceiling.

"There has to be an explanation for this there has to be?"

Carl

In the bathroom Carl stumbled towards rhe sink and looked in the mirror gazing at his hagard face. He groaned "God I'm wasted.... and I need to call Missy right now. but first I need to sober up." He looked at the shower stall. "Thats it!" He declared a quick cold shower will get me in shape.
He stripped off his clothes and stumbled into the streaming water, "Too damn cold!" he groaned and turned the hot on just a bit, "Thats better."

He soapped himself down and began to enjoy the feel of his hands on his skin. As he thought of Missy his hands went to his cock and begn to unconsoiusly stroke it as he immagined the last time they made love.
He was hard by the time he realized that Marie was waiting for him in the other room and even though there was no one with him chuckled at his embarrasment. Grabbing a towel he started to dry himself off when he heard Maries voice in the kitchen, and remembered his phne call.

" Marie Darling, what do you want for breakfast, I'm cooking? What are you doing on the phone I'm waiting for a call?"

He said as he took the phone from her and asid "Hello."

He heard a gaasp on the other end and then silence he listened as the line went dead.

He looked up at Marie who was staring at him. He looked down and saw the towel he had wrapped around himself had come open at the front his cock now half erect stood out like a sore thumb right in front of Marie.

"Oh shit." he groaned as he pulled the towel around him, "Was that Missy on the phone what did you say to her?"
Marie grinned nothing on her mind but Carls pulsing cock. She shrugged her shoulders.
"Whoever it was is sure gone now aint she, Carl. Maybe I should take a shower too, You sure look nice all cleaned up like that honey. Care to help me?
Carl groaned as she headed for the bathroom shedding her red dress as she paraded out of his sight.

"Oh god," Carl groaned he really fucked up this time. He dialed Missys number It rang and rang no answer. he hung up and dialed again it rang and rang again and then the line went dead. He dialled again and got a busy signal. "What the fuck!. Oh shit! she must have left it off the hook was she pissed or what, well he figured it was his fault he was the asshole here now wasn't he. He needed time to think, to figure out what to do.

He heard the shower running and remembered Marie. He heard her call provacatively." Come wash my back honey."
He got up to tell her he was going to bed and stepping into the bathroom saw her goergeous body glowing under the streaming water. She hadn't bothered to shut the curtain and she stood there smiling as her hands spread soap suds across her brasts and down between her thighs into the red curly hair on her mound she turned when she heard him come in and held the soap out to him. He dropped the towel and as his cock jumped to attention. Turning he ran for the safety of the bed in the den.

A few minutes later he heard footstep. "Carl, honey it's cold and lonely upstairs can I sleep here with you?"

He felt the covers being pulled back and her warm body cuddle up agains his backside her hands cmae around him one across his chest to caress his nipples and the other around his half hard cock.

The next thing he remembered was waking up. Marie was cuddled up to his backside, the only difference from last night was his cock was soft in her hand. He heard her murmur as she stirred
"That was wonderfull Carl and just because you were so sweet I'll make breakfast. He watched her slither out of bed. A sly grin was on her face and her breasts bobbing delightfully in front him as she bent down and kissed him.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

That night creaked buy each second of that clock sounded in her ears that whole night she stared to the ceiling twice , she lifted the phone to call him back then no ... she hung it up he will have to call her now that was all there was to it. but who was that and what was she doing there at that time of night and him in the shower and then breakfast was she spending the night what happen?
Carl was not like that she knew he loved her she felt it so why would he take another women to his house, his bed, to his shower what was she thinking. many thoughts ran though her head. she moved to stare at that phone as it never rang. it was now Seven am and she knew Carl would be up and getting ready to do his morning chores but still she would not call. she got up looking all haggard and not one wink of sleep it shown on her plus the worry. she made it to the bathroom as she jumped in under the water and let it spray out cold to her trying to refresh her. she knew she had to get to the office to finalize the plans fro the Museum but she had to talk to Carl about some of this they needed his finale OK on some things. But how would she talk to him about anything with all the questions in her mind. She shrugged and knew she had no choice. dressed and ready she looked to the phone one last time even her hand rested to the receiver as she shook her head and bit her lips walking to her car.

"Carl what is going on over there? I should have never had left you alone you should have come with me out here that's what should have happen."

She got into the car and the dirt and dust flew her anger starting to take hold as her tires hit the pavement squealing out as she speed out towards town. She past Brian on 95 heading into the city she flew past him like a bat out of hell. he sped unto try and catch her at the toll both but to late she was gone already into the tunnel he could only watch her swerve in and out of traffic way up far ahead after she got out of the tunnel. he swore she took the exit on two wheels then he thought he saw her hit the guard rail sparked flew and the sound of metal screeched as she keep on going but still she got to the parking lot at work.
When brain finally caught up to her he threw his car in park behind her and ran to the drivers side. she had her head down on the wheel and was crying buy trying not to let anyone see. she felt like a child, a spoiled child that didn't get her way or what she wanted and was crying. he saw the mark where she ripped part of the quarter panel off when she did hit that guard rail. at that moment the cell rang missy looked to it but not moving.

"Missy what's wrong? you where driving like a maniac you could have been killed. its a wonder you didn't crash i saw you hit that guard rail. if that wasn't there you would have flipped into the bay. sweetie what "s wrong"

That cell rang and rang and rang Brain looked at her then picked up the phone he meant to hand it to her but hit the button handing it to her answering the call by mistake neither one knowing it was an open phone at this point.

"Babydoll tell me please what happen what's wrong. when i saw you hit that rail on 95 my heart stopped i thought you where going to roll that jeep Missy now stop crying and tell me what's the matter i haven't seen you drive like that since you caught me and Terry ... well you know the night you broke off our engagement... is that it did that old Codger do something to you? Missy you don't know that country hick,at all you can't go back there let me take care of you baby here , just let me hold you."

brain voice could be heard though the phone then Missy's shouted back loud but not clear, sobs and tears clouding her words but Carl could make out most of what she was saying.

" Get off of me Brain... just leave me the fuck alone i don't want to be hurtanymore. why do men cheat why Brian ....Why... "

As she started to beat at his chest as brain grabbed to her trying to hold her to calm her down. Yes he cheated on her but he still cared and wanted her back.he knew it was gone and she was in love with Carl but what was this all about he wondered? she moved from his arms as she stepped out of the jeep the cell phone flying to the ground the anger the adrenaline the fact that she had no sleep last night and only two hr's the night before all took its toll on her and down she went . Her body gave out as she collapse brain grabbing to her just in time before she hit the pavement.

"Oh shit... Missy ... Missy wake up are you all right , Missy speak to me! Somebody help ... help! I need a doctor over here she's fainted missy... babydoll wake up please your scaring me..."

He could hear others rushing out to her but that was it then silence the phone dead to any sounds as someone picked it up and turned it off not knowing what was going on now as they took Missy inside she woke up midway groggy with Brain over her stroking her cheek.

"Talk to me missy what happen?"

She blinked and nodded after taking a sip of water that was offered to her.

"CARL.... I want Carl."

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

Oh god! Carl moaned as he watched the red head saunter toward the bathroom naked as a jaybird. Marie... his mind said last night.... he'd met her in Joes.... had pizza.... a half dozen beers.... he groaned again as his memory came back... more beer... went for a drive...parked.... talked half the night.... too drunk to drive... she brought him home... phone call... it was Missy... oh lord ...He groaned again.. boy did he fuck up..... shower... bed.... passed out next to ....

He looked up to see Marie bending over pulling her panties on, her hair falling down around her breasts. She looked over at him and grinned seeing his puzzled expression.

"Don't worry Carl, honey nothing happened. I wished that it would have ...god knows I tried to make something happen, but you just plain passed out on all my best efforts. shame on you. It might have been good." He saw her eyes mist up for a moment and then as she pulled her red dresss on, she cleared her throat and said softly "I'll make breakfast maybe I can at least do that right, she added thinking it was her fault for last nights fiasco.

Carl sat up abruptly, "Look Maire it wern't your fault. I never shoulda' gone out anyway, if id'a been smart Id'a done something around the house to keep my self busy while I waited for Missy to come back, lord knows theres plenty to do. He thought about the dirty dishes in the sink and... "Oh shit!" he said. Its after 8, I'd better get my chores done."

"You'd better call that gal you was babbling in your sleep about last night Mister," Marie said firmly. "Cause you sure enough said I love you to HER enough times in the night."

Carl looked at Marie sheepishly and shrugged his shoulders. "guess it is time to face the music". he said decisivly.

He slid out of bed and pulled his jeans and a shirt on and followed Marie into the kitchen.

He let the the phone ring and ring, bound determined to let it ring forever. Then he heard a click and voices but not in the phone, in the background instead. He motioned to Marie not to make so much noise with the pots and pans and covered his other ear to concentrate on the one on the phone.

"Get off of me Brain... just leave me the fuck alone I don't want to be hurt any more. why do men cheat why Brian ....Why... "

He heard it plain as day from a distance but plain as day. His heart lept to his throat knowing she was crying and then he heard noises like someone being pushed or punched at then the clatter of the phone and it went dead. He looked at Marie mortified

"Something terrible is happening, Marie forget breakfast, get me to town I gotta get to Missy as soon as I can."

He pulled his boots on and grabbed a jacket. His billffold and checkbook he stuffed in his pocket and practacly dragged a startled Marie out the door to the pickup. "You drive, he shouted, fast as you can, I gotta make some calls. he tried Missys number again on his cell phone and the line was dead he called the Johnson brothers to feed his livestock and take care of things while he was gone. He called the airport and bought a one way ticket to Maryland.

Marie asked when was he coming back and Carl said abruptly "Just as soon as I marry that gal."

Marie grinned. "Aint love grand".

Carl grinned back "Sure is, makes folks do some mighty strange things don't "

In no time they were in town and Carl was boaridng a plane for Maryland He gave Marie, Missys address and phone number and the address of the college she worked at and asked her to keep an eye on things at the farm. The ysmiled easily at each other. "You can stay there if you like," he added they were friends again like it used to be.

Marie said "We'll see, if I don't find another cowboy to shack up with I might just do that."

On the way to Maryland, Carl realized how lucky he was to have a friend like Marie even though he had to admit she caused some of the problem he was in. It was mostly his fault and he was soon to rectify that.

he'd been running on adrenalin and now that he slowed down and was sitting in the seat of the plane, the shock of the phone call set in. He lowered his head into his hands and wept, afraid of what might have happened to Missy and worried he might be too late to help.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

Brian picked her up in his arms and carried her inside to her own office bob and the rest of the staff huddling over them as she came to asking for Carl. Bob was all concerned asking what in the hell happened out there he saw Missy's jeep it was not hard to miss all white with a large mandella painted on the back her Vanity Plate with her name on it to was a dead give away plus parked in the spot with her name on it bob knew right away the door was still open and he closed it that's when he saw the rip in the side and heard Missy passed out from the security guard. They called fro a doctor as missy sipped her water and laid there a bit groggy.

Baby doll talk to me tell me what happen can you hear me can you see us we are all here Bob, Colleen and me and everybody come on Hun say something. please?"

She blinked and nodded trying to push Brian away, breathlessly.

"Carl...I need to talk to Carl. Phone... I got to hear his voice."

Bob looked at Brian strangely as he nodded the doctor came in the room and cleared everyone out beside Colleen he was going to examine her he heard what happen out side that she passed out and she looked a might pale as the doc started his examination
he checked her heart her lungs her temp and blood pressure. her pressures where a little on the high side but not extremely to dangerous he asked her what was wrong and all she would say was she was under some stress and had just flew home from a trip down south and she need to rest. the doc nodded in agreement and said she looked warn out. she would be all right but he wanted her to rest in her office for a few hours then have someone take her home to rest the rest of the day. before he left he gave her a shot of something ti relax her and make her sleep some.

The group followed in as the doc told them all what was said Brain offered to take her home after she rested he was the most concerned of all he still loved her. she looked o them all and asked for the phone the doc reminded her she need rest and let everyone left but Brian and bob she reached to the phone and sat up trying to get to it as she became woozy again Bob grabbed her and laid her back down.

"No Missy you rest like the doc said no phone rest."

She was getting aggravated now hearing him.
" let me hear his voice then i will rest i promise but there's n o way till i talk to him. NOW I NEED TO TALK TO CARL!"

Brain handed her the phone he knew when she got like this there was no stopping her. she smiled and took the phone dialing the number it rang and rang then the machine she sighed and hung it up with out a word handing the phone to Brian and rolling over.

"Turn the lights off when you leave please."

Her tone soft and sad as she closed her eyes the meds finally taking affect as she drifted in and out his name sliding off her lips everyso offen."Carl" all left but Brian he stayed and watched her the door open the lights off him holding her hand as everyone went on their way now trying to be quiet.

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

"This is your captain speaking, we will be arriving at MWI in fifteen minutes, please fasten your seat belts.

Carl woke with a start he looked up at the stewardess tapping on his shoulder "Are we here already, I must'a dozed off."

"Yes, and you sure jabbered in your sleep," the stewardess said grining. This Missy must sure be some fantastic girl, seems all you could say was how much you loved her."

Carl shook his head trying to remember what he had been dreaming about but could only remember how bad he felt about what happened and his fear for her safty.

He watched the airport come into sight and soon they were on the ground. He hurried to the door into the lobby and running through the next door into the street hailed a taxi. It wasn't long before he was at the university and Carl hoping she'd be here, jumped out. Cutting through the parking lot he saw a dinged up jeep wondering anyone got hurt it was banged up so bad and then noticing the license plate gasped in horror

"Oh my god he shouted "Missys car, shes had an accident, he ran up the stairs and into the lobby.

"Where's Missy"! he shouted at the receptionist. The girl shrunk back and pointed to an office with the name Brian written on the door.

Carl stopped himself from crashing through the door even though he was fit to be tied thinking that that scondrel Brian was the cause of this. He knew he had to keep it cool or he'd only cause a lot more trouble than he was already in. Catching his breath he slowly opened the door and walked inside.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

Inside brain was seated beside Missy on the couch, his hand smoothing her hair softly over her face her hand rested in his as if she had been garbing on to it. She had her eyes closed and seemed to be sleeping. Brian looked up as Carl opened the door and stepped inside. His face turned White seeing Carl standing there looking at him then down to Missy. he remebered his yanking him up from that mound only a few days ago. he saw the rage in his eyes back then and even though he was quiet standing there he saw the same rage mixed with something else he couldn't put his finger on. then Brain to felt a rage this man had upset Missy enough fro her to have acted this reckless way and now be laying here. he stared to Carl as he made his way inside and knelt down next to Missy half shoving Brian out of the way.

"What are you doing in my office and why are you here n ow? haven't you done enough damage look at her. Now get out! The doctor said she needs her rest."

Brain found a new set of balls as he spoke to Carl his tone low trying not to disturb Missy yet get his meaning across this was his office not the back woods on his property and he had a university of security guards at his disposal all he had to do was call out.

Missy hear Brian and sighed out in her sleep, her lashes fluttering as she felt two people standing in the room over her still groggy she opened her eyes only to slits. It was then that she saw Carl and Blinked. her voice shaky at first filled with excitement to see Carl then a sort of sadness in the end. she was hurt but she didn't know what happen there had to be an explanation to this if he didn't care he would never be there and he was but who was that women on the other end of the phone and why so late what was it all about?

"Carl... What are you doing here..."

She drifted back out to sleep the medication taking hold of her fully as she tried to fight it again sound asleep. as Brian looked to her still stroking her forehead he looked back to Carl again.

"look i don't know what happen between you to all i know is she was hurt somehow and i was behind her driving down 95. she hit the guard rail the whole quarter panel is ripped lucky she didn't flip that jeep of hers into the bay. Missy has a temper you will learn that if you get the chance and when she's upset she drives like a maniac she pasted out on me in the parking lot i brought her up here. she's been seen and the doc said she needs rest. so would you please leave i am taking her home next time she wakes up. i don't want to call security on you mr. Anderson, but I will if you don't leave."

Brain looked back to Missy his eyes held a true concern fro the women and a love even if not returned he still loved her and would do anything to help her Carl could see this as well.

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

"Who's home was he talking about Carl thought." as he still doubted Brians intentions. He had cooled off, more amused than anything by Brians tirade about getting the security guards. and his obvious lack of control. At least thats the way Carl saw the whole situation. What was done was done and the wasn't any need to lay blame as far as he could see. The main thing now was the welfare of Missy and from his experience with trama on the farm it just took time for reality to set in and things got back to normal.

He went to the coffee pot and poured himself and Brian two cups. "Here, he said gently, " Looks like you could use one of these, you've been through a lot the last few hours. Thanks for being there for Missy in her time of need it must have been hard for you to see this happen but its behind us now."

Maybe the smell of coffee would bring Missy around in a way that would be natural and not imposing. Brian gave him a weak smile still not sure of Carl That long braid of hippie hair and his five oclock shadow dodn't impress him much. But his eyes weemed sincere so he relaxed some and sipped his coffee.

"efore we run off and take Missy somewhere let's wait and see what her choice in the matter is, seems like she could make that decision as well as either of us could."

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

After about ten minutes she started to stir , was it the voices or the aroma of the coffee? She blinked a few times looking up seeing Carl and Brian sitting there talking like old friends over a cup of coffee.At that she had to blink again to make she wasn't' dreaming. No, she was awake she was looking to Carl as he then looked down back to her.

"What are you doing here ... how did you get here....For God sakes Brian how long have I been out."

Carl only grinned back at her his hand placed onto of her with a small squeeze. As Brain smiled back down to her and spoke.

"Good to see your awake Babydoll looks like you got a visitor"

She looked to Carl not really knowing what to say to him he was looking at her so quiet but he was here, he was beside her holding her hands .However she still was in need of an explanation and she needed it now.

"Brian would you please give us a minute , I have to speak with Carl please?"

Brian just looked at the two and stood not wanting to leave, then asking if she was sure she didn't want him to stay just in case? She shook her head and smiled

"Please Brian I need to talk to Carl."

Brain took a deep breath and left making sure they knew he would be right outside the door if she need him. The door shut and Missy looked up at Carl and pulled her hand back from his. Now it was her turn to take that deep breath.

" I called you a few times the day I left , you never where home to answer. Then that night I called again it was well past 1 maybe 2 I forget now. some women answered. then I heard you something a bout breakfast and calling her darling." She shook her head as if to clear it then continued." Carl I just left you. there has to be an explanation ... there has to be I know better... I belived you when you told me you loved me i felt it and I meant it when I told you, I still do... But who was this women? What happen and ... why.... Why."

She had hit him with enough question now, not even letting him speak or tell her why he was there in the first place. closeing her eyes and stared to the ceiling waiting she was rather calm, extreamly calm fro Missy, not even seeming to be mad .Upset yes, mad no. Hurt even more emotionally then physically then she looked to Carl. It was her hand that took his again and now looking in to his eyes waiting for answers.

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

Carl thought it was over between them when Missy pulled her hand from his and looked at the ceiling He knew she was Damened mad and he couldn't blame her for that. He wouldn't even blame her if she up and told him that it was all over between them and told him to get out of her life.

He knew that he could accept whatever she would say or do without question simply because he loved her. Loved her enough to let her go. Loved her enough to ensure her happiness even if it meant loosing her.

But first of all she deserved an explaination and he knew he could no more lie to her than he could step in front of a Maack truck on the freeway.

When she took his hand and looked in his eyes he saw a glimmer of hope for them a glimer that told him there was love there for him and that she would listen with her heart.

He held her hand tightly in his as if to show her with his touch as well as his words that he was sorry for whar had happened and that he would tdo what it took to make amends to bring them back to the love they shared before she left this morning.

"Missy he began slowly I am truely sorry for any and all pain i have caused you" and then he told her the whole story just as it had happened leaving out no details even the thoughts he had about how attratctive His friend. Marie was and that even though they kidded each other about having sex they bi=oth knew that they were too good of friends to make that happen and hurt the relationship that they shared. every last detail he told her and when he was finished he said simlpy You're the only one I love Missy you're the only one I want to have sex with. you're the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with."

He got down on his knees in front of her "Marry me Missy, be my wife. I'll sell the farm, move here with you, do what ever you want just say yes."

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

He told her so much it was insane, they where friends yet the women wanted more. But yet she didn't do anything about it was hard to believe but when Carl told her nothing more happened and there friendship meant more to them then pure carnal sex she understood. She thought she was insane now but she understood and belived Carl. she loved him enough to believe every word what she didn't believe was his words they floored her.

"Marry me Missy, be my wife. I'll sell the farm, move here with you, do what ever you want just say yes."

She stared at him with her mouth hanging open her eyes glued to him on the floor brain was standing listening behind the door. He couldn't believe one Missy let him get away with this and two that the man had the balls to ask her to marry him. Missy swallowed hard as she blinked and looked to him

"Marry you ... you want me to marry you, Carl are you serious really? I don't want you to lose the farm I want to live there stay with you there your never make it out here in the big city. My God Carl ... are you sure?"

He grinned and nodded like he was thinking about it then simply said.

"yeap, Marry me Missy"

She looked to him her hand tightening over his as she held to it, her eyes shinning brightly as she smiled a slow sort of amazed gaze coming over her eyes.

"Yes" she shook her head again" Yes I will marry you "

He hugged her pulling him up to her they both very excited and very happy as he hold her close his lips found her sliding over them her own molding to his as she kissed him deeply a passion building in there hearts as they both beamed in excitement and happiness.

"I will Marry you Carl yes, but no to staying here no to selling the farm.
I got it ... I got it Carl, the funning the grant for the Molly Anderson Native American museum. All that's needed to do is you sign the papers and get to work. I'm running it, I was going to come to you in a few days with the papers and we could start out life together there on the farm. that's where I want to be, with you by your side and in your heart. I love you Carl."

 

[prometheus 2]

Carl

Carl beamed as Missy accepted his proposal and told him of her ideas about the mueseum. It would be perfect he thought the Johnson brothers would have the new barn ready where they would live and have brought the animals over there soon. He'd keep on farming and she would run the museum. The mound would stay intact and they would plan a family. He grinned thinking about that part wanting her to have his children, pictures coming to his mind of daughters just like her and sons like him or maybe a little of both in each.

He pulled her into his arms and said 'I love you Missy. Thank you for understanding, nothing and nobodies ever gonna come between us again I promise that."

Seeing she was a little weak, he lossened his hold on her and said "Maybe I could take you home, We'll get those papers taken care of and well just relax at your place for the rest of the day. You can show me around and I'll wait here till you tie things up, aint no way I'm gonna leave you we can fly back to the farm when we finish up here things will take care of themselves fine till we get back." Hell, we can even get married here if you like." His face got a little serious then "though I'd sure like the folks back home to be there."

He looked at her so damn proud of her and wanting to show her off to his friends and neighbors, let them know that old Carl still got what it takes to have the best.

 

[Funloving62]

Missy

She felt the warmth of his arms surround her as she beamed in happiness yes she was happy weak but happy all at the same time but never to weak to hold on to him. Just being in his arms gave her some sort of strength.

'I love you Missy. Thank you for understanding, nothing and nobodies ever gonna come between us again I promise that."

She knew his words to be true and so did someone else outside the door as he backed a way and gathered up those papers he knew Missy would be shouting for any minute. Brain looked like he just lost his best friend but he to wanted Missy happy and if this Carl fellow could do it then so be it. he did fly out here to come to her right away.

Missy smiled up at him as she felt his let go of her she shined in her own excitement thinking she was going to marry this man then heard his say something about being married here or back home and friends and such. heck she only had a few friends there no family and she felt at home back on the farm it wouldn't be right to marry him here it had to be on the farm and she knew it.

"Carl Anderson you better believe we will be married on that farm back home. I would like an old fashion native wedding come pleat with all the trimmings I can even have my own grandfather do the ceremony and I'll start on the deer skin tunic for you to I have my grandmothers wedding dress I can use. very traditional. Carl I love you now where are those papers"

She squeezed his hand as Brian knocked right on cue. It didn't take long the papers sighed the last work finalized that she could do laying down brain told her he would take care of everything just go home and rest. and that's what they did Carl leaned down and picked her up his hands slipped under her knees and the other under her head. she already looked like a bride being carried away by her groom as he took her down the stairs and out to her car the keys left in the ignition still she told him where she lived and they where off to her trailer out of town. Her eyes told him of the love she still felt for him and trust as well. but she would still keep an eye on this Marie and make sure she knew She was back... And to stay.
