"Hey I'm home" I casually walk through the front door and walk towards my room.
"Not so fast" I hear Aunt Sophie behind me and I sigh, "where have you been?" She asked.
"Where's Henry?" I asked because I was not in the mood to deal with him.
"Work, now tell me" she demanded.
"Well I met Dakota and I lived with her this past week, and I'm sorry about last week" I scratched the back of my neck "it was a pretty shitty thing to say and I'm sorry" she nodded.
"Apology accepted" her expression softened "how's she doing?"
"I think I might love her" I whispered and looked down.
"Look at me" I looked up and there was a spark in her eyes that I've never seen before. She wrapped her arms around my waist and hugged me for a minute before continuing "she's a good girl I love her like my own and if you do anything I mean anything I'll personally lock you in that basement, but I think you should tell her"
"I was planning on going back in two days and I thought about telling her then, but that might be too early. Don't you think?" She looked up at me.
"You know that Henry told me he loved me the second day he met me and look at us, married 27 years and plenty more to come" she laughed and I loved how happy she looked right now.
"Well then I plan on telling her tomorrow" I hugged her tighter and released "well I'm going to bed because that damn mattress is so uncomfortable" I started to walk up the stars.
"Wait Dakota only has one mattress!" Aunt Sophie yelled after me.
"Did you sleep with her!?" I lowered my head awkwardly and grinned
"You did! You whore!"
"Just kidding dear, I love you and goodnight!" I laughed and grabbed a towel and some pants then headed towards the shower.

Oh man that shower felt so good. Sure I washed off in the creek a few times, but I love showers.
I dried off my hair with the towel and stood in front of the mirror. I chuckled when I saw the hickeys on my neck. Man I've not even been gone six hours and I already miss her.
"Hey Jewel" I greeted the purring kitten rubbing at my feet. I picked her up and sat her on the bed next to me. "Dakota has a cat too, his name is Oscar. He's pretty nice so maybe I'll bring you up there to see him sometime" Jewel just purred and pawed at my hand to pet her.
I grabbed the covers and pulled them over me and pulled jewel close. She happily curled up next to me and closed his eyes. I chuckled because she was a little blue/gray purring ball of fur.
I turned off my desk lamp and thought of ways to tell Dakota that I loved her. I fretted and argued with myself for almost an hour before I let out a huge yawn. Ok maybe sleep will take my mind off of her. I stroked Jewel one last time and rested my hand on her and that was how I fell asleep.
