Eva kissed me on the lips softly and I poured her a cup of coffee.
Thank goodness, Spirit and Ghost were in the kitchen.
"I was talking to my cats."
.
She sipped her coffee, leaning against the counter. "Do you talk to the cats all the time?"
.
I nodded.
"Well, I do live alone and they are great listeners."
.
She walked to me and kissed me on the lips. "You are a little strange, Mr. Will Templeton."
.
"Sorry."
.
She sat at the kitchen table. "Don't be, I like weird."
.
The cats began their little dance as Whisper, who had disappeared, suddenly reappeared in the kitchen.
.
"Oh my God. I have never seen cats do that in my life," Evangeline said, smiling.
.
I laughed, nervously. "Well, if you think I am a little weird."
I pointed at Spirit and Ghost. "Meet my cats."
.
She smiled. She looked so beautiful. She was wearing one of my t-shirts and a pair of my sleep pants. Obviously she had been in my bureau drawers. I didn't care. The clothes never looked so good.
.
"I'm going to my room Daddy."
.
"Ok, sweetie," I answered, unconsciously.
.
Eva looked at me, "Ok sweetie what?"
.
Idiot.
.
Whisper giggled and disappeared.
.
"Ok, sweetie, what do you want to do today?" I blurted, trying to cover up my mistake.
.
"So you are calling me sweetie, are you?"
She smirked at me, as she sipped her coffee.
.
"No. I'm sorry."
Had I blown it again?
.
She laughed. "Relax Will. It's ok. After last night you can call me anything you want."
She smiled teasingly, slightly licking her lips.
.
I smiled. Hopefully I wasn't blushing too much.
.
She continued, with a heavy sigh, "But I have to go to Grand Falls for a couple days."
.
I nodded, sadly.
.
She smiled. "Why don't you come with me?"
