Chapter 1 - Dark Stormy Night

It was a dark stormy night as a young girl raised up in her bed awaken from the thunder and lighting. She moved

over to turn on the lamp. She stared out the balcony window as the rain violently poured down. She sighed sadly,

"James...When will I ever see you again?" she whispered, "you're always on the run. We hardly ever have anymore time

together." she slowly went back into the covers snuggling in them tightly. She never dared to take her eyes off the

balcony window. She wrapped her arms around her cold body which was wearing a small sugar pink nightgown. Her eyes

were as blue as the ocean. Her hair down her shoulders a brunette with blond highlights. She was only seventeen. She

was in love with a man named James Earl Cash. A killer who escaped prison unknowingly and who was still on the

run. James and Katie met somewhat strangely. She read and heard the news about an escaped killer by the name of

James Earl Cash. His rough and gritty image for some reason made her fall in love. One night she was walking down

the night street when she came face to face with him. He was running from some hunters that were chasing him. She

recognized him and foolishly helped him hide. Cash was confused and asked why a young girl like her wasn't scared of

him and wouldn't run off. She said nervously she knew him from the news and for some reason adored him. For the

longest he was confused and wondered why he didn't just blow her head off in the first place. She accompanied him

for a while and he kinda got used to her. She obeyed him and stayed where ever he told her to. They began to become

friends. One night she accidentally got caught by the gang the Wardogs and almost payed her life for it, if James had

not saved her. He looked down at her whose clothes were tore and had small bruises here and there. She questioned

him, "Why did you save me?! Why?! You could have been killed." he didn't know, he then asked her, "Why did you not

run away from me in the first place?" she blushed and looked up at him with tears in her eyes, "Because..I care

about you James..i-in fact..I think I love you." he was shocked. All his life he was treated like shit his family

never really caring for him. And out of the blue came this girl saying she cared about him even if he was a mass

murderer. He just stared down at her. Then slowly placed his hands on her cheeks kneeling down kissing her soft

lips. He didn't realize it then but as weeks went on. He realized he loved her too. She was the single thing he

would never ever hurt or even try to kill.

She became to come back to reality now after thinking of their past. She still stared at the window. With a flick

of lighting a shadowy figure was seen watching her. She gasped in fright only to realize it was a rain soaking wet

James watching her from the balcony. She quickly jumped up and walked to the window doors opening them as Cash fell

in her arms. She lifted his body upward, "James?!? Are you alright?!" he grinned nodding, "Yeah, I'm fine babe.

Don't mind if I spend the night do ya?" she giggled smiling as she shook her head. As he slowly undressed down to

his boxers she gave him a towel to dry off. She sat behind him on the bed and rubbed his shoulders as he arched his

neck back moaning. She smiled as she massaged down his arms and she kissed his neck. He smiled as he took her hand

looking up at her, "You're so damn good to me..." she giggled "Why not? I love you so..." she gave his neck soft and

tender kisses. And she smiled crawling under the covers as he did the same wrapping his arms around her small body.
She softly gasped as lighting struck and the lights were knocked out. He chuckled at her gasp moving her body close

to his, "Guess we'll be in the dark a while." he looked down as he felt her arms wrap tightly around him her body so

very close to his. For some odd reason he loved to feel her tremble beneath him. He slowly took her head in his arms

calming her, "Hey calm down baby. I'm right here."

As the night drew on, Katie asked James numerous questions she couldn't go to sleep..nor could he. He felt like

staying awake and listening to her. She seemed different tonight to him. He didn't wanna close his eyes. As the

lighting grew louder and she was drawn closer to him. He began to softly kiss her sweet face trying to calm her. She

took his hands moving them down looking at him seriously, "James...do you?" "Do I what?" "Do you...really love me?"

he blushed and was silent for a moment but came to his senses , "Yes," he said in soft and serious tone, "yes

Katie..I do love you." He felt somewhat weird for just telling her how he felt and how he was so calm with it. Maybe

it was true maybe he did love her. He wiggled around uncomfortably turning over. For some reason the moment he laid

his eyes own her tonight and now. He was yearning for her. But he respected her and did not force her. He turned

over to hide something that started to make notice.She blinked snuggling to his back. He froze as he felt her soft

C-Cupped breast graze his back. "Jamey? You alright?" she said worriedly. He nervously let out a yes. He slowly

looked down noticing he was getting stiff in a certain area. Why now? He cursed. He couldn't do nothing about it.

Usually things like this would come up when she is sleeping and would not notice. But he couldn't take care of it.

now.
