Cat's Story
Chapter 8-SURPRISE!!!!!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Wrapped in Seamus's warm embrace, her lips pressed against his. "I could stay like this forever," she thought, enraptured in the moment. When they pulled away, all Cat could say was "Wow."
"Just wow?" Seamus said jokingly. He laughed, a deep rumble in his chest that Cat found absolutely wonderful.
"Just wow."
"Well, well, well. Look what we have here. The O'Hara harlot and her Irish lover. I should have known." another voice said scathingly. Seamus practically dropped Cat at the sound of another voice.
"Elijah! What are you doing here...and how dare you!"
"Well, my dear, my trip to Dublin was cut unusually short, but I'm glad that I'm back, now I know who, or rather, what I would /I be marrying."
"You must be the oh-so-honorable Mr. Nelson," said Seamus sardonically, "I'm very pleased to have met you, but sadly I must go. Cat, I'll be seeing you," Seamus kissed Cat's hand and quickly walked away.
"Seamus, wait!" Cat called, but to no avail, he was already gone. Stabbing her finger into Eli's chest, she said, "You, you, you, well, I don't know what you are. How dare you insult me like that?" Before he could say anything else, she continued, practically yelling, "What? You just think you can waltz right on in and ruin everything for me?" "But Cat darling—"
"Don't Cat darling me, what happened to the 'O'Hara harlot?' I don't think so, mister."
"Cat, I was angry. I mean, what would you have said had you walked up to me kissing another woman?"
"I would have said, well good for you Eli, because I don't think I want to marry you anyway."
"What do you mean?"
"Eli, you're my best friend, and I love you...like a brother. I couldn't marry you. I was going to write you about it today, before I was so rudely interrupted."
"Well what about that man?"
"Who Seamus? Well, he—"
"You know what? I don't want to know. Can I have my ring back please?" Eli was getting a little red in the face, so Cat obeyed and removed the dazzling ring from her chain. "There, happy?"
"No, but thank you anyway. This isn't over...yet."
And with that, Eli stomped down the trail. Cat collapsed on the cool, wet grass, no longer caring what her dress looked like. Sobbing into her arm, Cat thought of the men who supposedly loved her. How was she to choose?

A/N: And the plot thickens...so, what do you think?
