CHAPTER TEN
It was Halloween and the day flew by. Before Lola knew it she was up in the clinic getting ready. The dress was a midnight blue velvet, square top corset, with long sleeves. With gold trim on the top. The bottom part was long with a slight puff to it. Lola then fastened the necklace and pulled half of her hair up in a messy bun. Lola took one last look at herself in the mirror as she slipped the crown on.
"How could you?" Dorothy called when she came out.
"Look totally fab? I'm just blessed is all." She smiled, shrugging her shoulders.
Moving in front of her "How could you take away what Cloud Dancing and I had?"
"I can't take anything away if their was nothing their in the first place."
"What is it about you that he likes so much? Besides the only fact you have is that you speak French?" Dorothy asked.
"Besides the fact that I know what it's like to have people force us into something were not. I'm also a good example of it actually working out and being very miserable every second. And I hear what people are saying about me. But I'm not ashamed because of it. I enjoy his company and the town is just closed minded to something that is different."
"You really hurt me." She told her.
"That was not my intention I swear. But if you were better he wouldn't of been wondering." Lola walked off to the party with her head held high.
Dr. Quinn, Sully, Grace and Robert E approached her when she got their.
"You look beautiful." Grace complimented.
"What are you suppose to be?" Sully asked.
Smiling "Thanks Grace, I'm Anne Boleyn. Second wife of King Henry the 8th and first wife he beheads."
Everyone complemented her on her outfit, wining her second place in best Halloween costume. She was watching some kids bob for apples when she saw a body stand next to her.
"You know your costumes not finished." Hank joked looking at he chest.
Putting her hand over her chest "What are you the fashion police?" Walking away.
Cloud Dancing hadn't shown up yet, and Lola was starting to wonder where he was. Lola was watching some people on the dance floor.
"Why are you not dancing?" Cloud Dancing stood next to her.
Lola smiled when she saw him "I'm not so good at it. Where have you been?"
Shrugging "Around." He joked.
Laughing "Ok we have been spending to much time together. You starting to sound like me."
Cloud Dancing moved so he could take in her outfit "What are you suppose to be?"
Holding her head high "Anne Boleyn. Second wife to King Henry the 8th. And the first wife he beheads."
"Why would you be someone who was beheaded? She must of not been a good person to have that done to her."
"Anne Boleyn is awesome for someone who gets a bad rap, so did not deserve to have that done to her. And I got second place for best costume."
He bobbed his head "Good job."
The two sat with Dr. Quinn and Sully as the night went on. As the party neared an end Lola and Cloud Dancing had separated themselves from the group. They were up by the school, Lola pulled him behind it.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"This." And she kissed him.
Stopping "We can not do this here." He told her.
Pouting, she crossed her arms "Why?"
He took her hands and ducking his head a little so they were eye level "We may be ok with us. But the town is not ready. Especially if they see us kissing."
"You know you being right all the time is so not fun."
"I can not help it if you like being wrong all the time." He teased.
Play hitting him in the arm "Well fine, me and my wrongness are going to bed then." She started walking away from him.
He reached after her, pulling her back to him "In the words of you 'one for the road.'
"But you just said…." He silenced her with a quick kiss.
Pushing away from him "You are such a tease."
Lola slowly walked back to her room with a smile on her face. The next morning she walked in the clinic to Dr. Quinn rummaging through her medicine.
Calling out her favorite nickname for Dr. Quinn "Hey Miky."
All she got was a mumble from her so Lola asked "Their something wrong?"
Looking over her shoulder "Oh hi. I need to get some herbs. But I'm really busy this week and don't know when I can get some more."
"Well what ones do you need?" Questioned Lola.
Dr. Mike handed her the list of herbs that were needed.
"I know where all these are. If you like I can go get a bunch for you."
"You do?"
Shaking her head "Ya. Cloud Dancing has shown me a place where all these grow."
"That would be wonderful, if you can get these for me."
Dr. Mike gave her a bag for the herbs and thanked her one more time. Lola got her horse from Robert E and set out. When she finished the weather had gone from sunny to dark. Enjoying the scenery around her, her horse became spooked, throwing Lola to the ground. She hit her head against something knocking herself out. Sully and Cloud Dancing were walking back from checking their traps.
"Isn't that Lola's horse?" Sully pointed to the wondering horse.
"That is her horse Skittles. I wonder where she can be." Cloud Dancing looked around.
"She named her horse Skittles." Sully stopped in his tracks.
Shrugging "It is some form of candy where she comes from."
They proceeded to check the grounds, wolf found her and started barking. Running over they both bend down on either side of her.
"We wont make it to town in time." Sully said looking at the sky.
"There is a cave we can take her too. I will stay with her while you get Dr. Mike." He mentioned.
Moving her their Sully took Skittles and left.
