love just gets complicated

chapter 37

Katelin sat, her glaze fixed on kid curry who had just shot 6 good shots. No not good, perfect. They were perfect shots. She was surprised at how easy that gun flew into his hand. He was so good with it. He turned to face her with a proud grin on his face. She jumped down from where she was sitting and ran into kids waiting arms. She reached up and kissed the breath out of him.

"We are alone in this bunkhouse" she whispered.

"That sounds perfect to me" kid whispered back. He pushed her up against the wall with one hand and the other closing the door. She glazed into his deep blue eyes.

"This is perfect for me to" she pulled his lips onto her.

Maddy was sitting in her bedroom, glazing at the sky as the sun slowly started to set. A chilly breeze brew through her open window. She hadn't seen Joshua since after the picnic. Her stomach began to ache for him. It had only been a few hours but she longed for his touch. His breath on her neck. His kisses.....

A noise sounded behind her. She spun on her heel. Her breath caught in her throat. There stood Joshua. Completely dried now. She walked towards him and grabbed his hands. She swung them from side to side.

"Hey" she smiled.

"Hey" he replied.

"I loved that picnic. you fell in!" She began to giggle again.

He smiled. "Wasn't that funny"

"Yes it was."

"No it wasnt"

He stepped closer and pushed her slightly on the bed so she was sitting down. He sat down next to her. He traced his finger down her neck and back up to her face. She stared into his warm chocolate eyes. She leaned in and closed her lips onto his. She pushed him roughly backwards and raised herself above him. She didn't know why she was doing this, but something inside of her was taking control. She saw his face register surprise for just a second before he composed himself.

"What are you doing?" He whispered.

She shook her head and laid next to him. Her head resting on his chest. She loved his warmth. Him being here made her forget about mclaggen... WHAT WAS SHE DOING! Laying on the bed with him. the reality of what she was doing to him loomed over her. She sat up all of a sudden.

"What's wrong? Did I do something?" He asked.

She shook her head. "I need to be alone.go away"

He was dumb struck. She was telling him to go. Her mood kept changing. One minute she wanted him the next she didn't. He was getting confused.

"Maddy, wait ..." she cut him off.

"There's no wait. Please go away"

He stood up and grabbed her wrist. "Maddy wait. Its so confusing. One minute you want me the next you don't. I'm confused."

She saw the hurt register in his eyes. She wanted to cry. But she couldn't have him. She was in one of her moods. She had to let him go.

"I'm sorry. I'm confused to. Just leave... please" she turned away from him.

He laughed nervously. "That's funny. This is roughly the same conversation me and Silvia had ... before she ditched me too. Where's all this coming from?"

She bit her lip. "Just go away"

She stayed facing the window till she heard the door close. She looked round briefly. He was gone. She sat back on her bed and laid down. she could smell Joshua's scent on her pillow. She squeezed her eyes shut and tears leaked down her face. "Mother? I need you. I'm so confused. Joshua makes me feel things I Dont know about. He makes me feel weird. I'm confused. I need your help" the floodgates opened. She wanted her mother.
