Memphis Moon

Chapter 7

That was inconsiderate Kol; you aren't giving up anything I am. My family, friends, and a career I worked damn hard at, you already have everything with you! Baby I am sorry, that was so insensitive of me. I just want you with me so bad. Remember, baby steps okay......

I got out of the bed and I was thinking about what he said, and the truth is I wish I could! Just up and go without a care in the world. What about my mom? What about my girls, what about me? Is this what I want or am I just having a good time right now? I was just about to leave when Kol grabbed my hand and asked me to forgive him. For what? I was out of line then; I am so sorry baby.

Kol, it's ok. I get it. I do. Sam, I made you some breakfast. When did you.... Baby calm down, it's not that crucial. I should have never said those things; I am fine Kol, and I am going to be late. I'll call you later. Lee met me in my office, he must have some pull somewhere because you already have flowers this morning. Are you serious?

I told him I was fine with everything. Little spat this morning huh? No, Lee things are great. I may even be leaving by Christmas! What are you talking about? I know this is a lot to handle this early, but I haven't had coffee and we have so much to get done.

We will talk about it later. I called the girls and told them I am really considering moving now. They all wanted to meet for lunch, so we did. Are you going to do it? I don't know, but guess what? Lue loves him! Charese said you lying! Nope, we had dinner last night and she is cool about this and I am scared to tell you the truth. She doesn't like anybody!

Lindsey said she can see how happy I am with him; I think we all see it Sam. Tammy was the only one who hadn't weighed in on it today. Tammy, what do you think? I don't know him well enough to judge him, but I do know you and I haven't seen you this happy ever.

Take this happiness and have it for as long as you can, life is short. You only get one real chance at the love of a lifetime and I think Kol is it for you. I say go and be happy. Thanks Tammy, I love you; I love you all, but I have to think about it just a little more. I have got to get back so I will get with you all later.

Lunch was great, and I listened to what the girls had to say, but what was my heart saying? I think Kol is the one I have been waiting for all my life, but this is moving so fast. I want to be sure that he is what I need and not just someone I am having great sex with. I will give it until the end of the year, it's only been since September but it seems like forever in a good way.

When I got home he was gone, I had no idea where he was or what he was doing. I just did the usual, got comfortable and started on some dinner. I wanted pork chops, grilled asparagus, and maybe some corn. I cranked up the music and got in the kitchen.

About an hour later Kol comes in all smiles. Hey babe, hey. Did you have a good day at work? It was fine, what about you? You know, I had no idea Memphis was so small. Well you were the one that said...... I know, but it's cute just like you! You cooked? Yes, why? I was going to take you out for dinner.

Kol we ate out last night. I know, I want to spoil you while I'm here so that you will miss me even more when I'm gone. Shut up and get washed up, don't remind me. The week wined down and it was time for him to leave, the last night was coming close and we didn't want to do anything, no TV, radio, or movies.

I just wanted to ball up and cry. He wanted to get out and I just wanted to be with him and him only. I didn't want to share him with a club, bar, or restaurant. I just wanted him to myself. Kol, I don't want you to go! I know it's selfish of me but I can't stand the thought of you leaving in the morning.

Then I will stay longer. Kol, you can do that? I can and I will for you. I was thinking this man is willing to do this for me, to just change his whole lifestyle to make me happy. Kol, I want to do it. That was easy, I thought was going to have to put on a big show for the last night of love making.
