My Place chapter 6

I left Catherine in her room walked down to my room and closed the door. I let out a long breath than breathed deeply in. I could still smell her lingering around. Was I ever going to get her out of my head? I don’t think I will.

I striped of my clothes and jumped in the tub. I washed up jumped out and dried of. The whole time I was thinking of Catherine. I put on clean clothes and jumped in bed. It didn’t take long for me to drift off to a deep sleep. When I did pictures of her danced around. I could smell the soap I gave her to use. Her giggles and singing filled my ears.

Was I obsessed? Or was it something else? I’m not sure but it was nice. Then I saw myself taking her out to meet Jestor. I wished my dreams never to end. Sunlight streamed in my window waking me up. I prompted myself on my elbows. Than I thought of Catherine still sleeping.

I flung the covers off and dressed. I washed my face and headed out the door. I went to the kitchen as quietly as I could. I was thinking of making a nice little breakfast for her. I had it all made up in my head when I hear soft singing.

I open the door and peek in. there she was standing at the stove. She had clean clothes on and an apron tied around her waste. She was making something while she was singing. Then the most pleasant smell drifted up to my nose. I walked in and took another sniff of that wonderful smell.

“Good morning I hoped you slept well.”

“Yes I did. Did you sleep well?”

“Ah! I slept very well last night.”

“Good. Here is your breakfast.”

“Thank you. You know you didn’t have to get up early to make breakfast.”

“One I did not get up early and two, I like making breakfast.”

“Ok. Just make sure you do not poison it. The animals it this to.”

“That is so mean. I would never poison anything in the world.”

All I could do was walk away chuckling. I could tell I was going to have fun. The animals did not like to joke around at all. It could get boring at sometimes. Even though she acted offended I could see the sparkle in her eyes. Almost as if she thought this as a game or she was planning revenge.

She walked in with her own plate and sat down. Than we started in to a little conversation. After breakfast we cleared the table and washed dishes. I went to get the food while she got bowls for the animals. We than took the food out to the back yard. I began to setup while she looked around. Than the animals came.

I introduced her to all of them. She held a little conversation with each animal before moving along to the next. After the animals were done eating instead of leaving they stayed. Catherine talked to them and then started to sing. I listened to the song and when she was done I went of to find Jestor.

I brought Jestor back to meet Catherine. When I came back the animals were just starting to leave. I said good bye and then walked over to where Catherine was sitting. Jestor followed faithfully behind.

“so do you like the animals?”

“yes they are all very kind.”

“I liked your song.”

“thank you. Oh! Who is this?”

“oh. This is Jestor, my mare. Jestor this is Catherine.”

“nice to meet you Catherine.”

“same to you. Your coat is beautiful.”

“thank you. Tyler brushes it every day.”

“really?”

“yes, I like to spend time with Jestor. She is my best friend here.”

“I wish I had a horse. My parents wouldn’t get me one.”

“well, you can ride me or my son. He is a proud stallion.”

“what is his name?”

“Fresiontin.”

“that is very odd.”

“yes it is you can give him a nickname if you ride him.”

“that would be great.”

“you can go to meet him now. Jestor will you take us to see him.”

“absolutely.”
