~ 8 million years later when I finally decided to follow up on my stories! Sorry guys I don't mean to forget! Anyway If I still have any followers here's another small bit to the ever growing story!~


Skye's POV

I slipped into her farmhouse careful so the elderly gentleman wouldn't see me. All I wanted was to hold her in my arms and watch a movie with her, to stroll down the street hand in hand talking, sweep her off her feet with my curry...but thanks to my stupid decision-making skills and conscience of rather lack of, that would never happen. Snuffles was gone presumably with Jill at Claire's farm. I had to see her, she was all that was in my head these days. The children's pumpkin festival had already gone, it was almost winter. I hadn't seen Jill in weeks. I was tired from walking and all my thoughts troubles were exhausting me. I took off my choker and lay it on her end table. I lay down on her bed well aware that in mid afternoon the old man would not come back till tomorrow morning, I would just rest, breathe in her scent, I would not stay long just rest my head...

Jill's POV

It had been weeks since Gray and I had argued, things had changed between us, he constantly asked me about what I was doing, where I was, and who I was seeing. It drove me insane and usually ended with us yelling at one another. I was to go home tomorrow and be reunited with my animals. My horse, Snuffles and my cat were brought up to the farm since I was lonely with just a 1-year-old to keep me company since I was not to strain myself.

I was lounging on the couch which was what I did a lot of mostly watching some cheesy Hallmark movie and eating cold leftover pizza. It was mid afternoon, and Claire was at work in the Mines and Trent had gone to work at the clinic. I need to get my life back I thought. I threw on my regular work clothes and decided to "borrow" their old blue pickup for a little early visit to my farm. I dropped off Resa with Ann and headed home for a quick visit. Snuffles eagerly hopped in the passenger seat. I waved goodbye to my horse who was eating and my cat letting them know I wasn't leaving and would be coming back for them.

I could now drive with the wrapping on my head and chest removed. I was told just to be extra cautious for a while. I left a note with Ann to tell Claire that I had gone for a Drive and would be back late. After making sure Resa was all set with Ann, I backed out of the parking lot of the Inn, winked at Gray who was coming out of the building and tore off down the old rocky road that led Mineral town to Forget-Me-Not valley. I had both windows down and the music of I just wanna run by the Downtown Fiction on loudly. He looked startled, worried, than angry as I sped away. Snuffles barked at him. "Jill!" he called but I didn't care and to show so pushed the gas pedal down further.

Ah how I missed the feel of total freedom,

I curved down the roads zig-zagging, weavving and bobbing every which way in joy to be free. Snuffles was in heaven with his pink tongue out and fur wind-blown. Finally my joy ride was forced to a slow Sunday driver style as I entered the valley. I pulled into my long dirt driveway to my familiar house, practically squealing as I hopped out. Snuffles made a dash to the chicken coop eager to be reunited with his buddies that he chased as I headed to the porch. I quickly fumbled with my keys to unlock the new door Takakura had ordered Gotz to put in while I was gone. It opened with a grand and welcoming BANG! I surveyed my home that was all neat and tidy from Takauras good care. Snuffles ran back in and bounded on the bed. I heard a loud yell. I whirled around to face my bed feeling adrenaline course through my veins.

In it was none other than Skye himself!

His sea green eyes locked with my own. His silvery hair was slightly out-of-place. His silk snow leopard shirt wrinkled and clinging to his body. He sat up and extended his arms towards me with his signature smirk plastered on his face. I dropped my keys and sprinted at the bed. I collided into him harder than I expected and we tumbled against the wall. His strong arms held me tightly and securely, no one else not even Gray could hold me like this. He buried his face in my hair and whispered how much he had missed me.

After some time of sentimental hugging we sat up and I traced his beautiful jaw outline with my fingers. He smiled at me. It wasn't his "player thief smooth guy" smile but a genuine smile. I blushed, I just couldn't help it he brought out my shy side. I nuzzled my face under his chin, he chuckled. "Miss me much?" he asked. "Oh shut up, like you didn't miss me!" I murmured my face against his chest. "Fine beautiful...it's a tie we both missed one another equally." he said while stroking my hair. "Good that's better," I stated. After a few seconds of silence. "I really did miss you though. " I said quietly blushing though he couldn't see my face. He smiled into my hair. I inhaled in his scent which smelled like curry, just like his letters. "So are you back to stay?" he asked breaking my train of thought. I sighed "No I'm not even supposed to be here now, I'll have to go back before it gets late..." I said dropping off the question so to enjoy the few precious moments I would have with him. We just lay in silence for a few moments. His hand rubbing my back, While I thought of the complete compulsiveness of my recent actions.

As if to help show me It was stupid leaving I heard a loud rapping on my door. I gasped and sat up. Skye's eyes had gone wide. I had to think and think fast. "Jill open up! I know you're there!" Called the voice that could belong to only Gray. I ignored him and whispered quickly and quietly. "The bathroom, there is the sink, and a window stand on the sink and slip out the window, punch the screen out for all I care, head straight for the dog house hide behind it or in it, when he comes in my house run! I'll buy you enough time to get wherever you need to get to." He had clasped my hands, and was gazing me in the eyes. It was a deep and powerful stare. "Jill out of all the people I have ever known you have shown me the most kindness, for that I thank you."

Then in one swift action he pulled me to him and kissed me full on the lips. His lips were soft and smooth and melted into mine. Then as quickly as it began it was over. He had already slipped into the bathroom and was out the window. My head felt fuzzy and my vision was seeing fireworks. Snuffles was barking loudly at the door. I felt my face grow hot. I shook it off and closed the bathroom window. "Gray was pounding on the door again. "Jill please let me in..." he called a bit quieter. I took a deep breath and went to let him in.
