MISTAKE?
Remy woke up to an empty bed. He looked around wondering if it was just a dream. 'Be de best dream dis Cajun ever had.' But then he saw her. She was standing up with a silky black robe on, starring outside through the closed balcony doors. Anna was so deep in thought that she didn't really notice him come to her. He grabbed her waist from behind her and took a deep breath. 'How does she always smell so good? Even that day when she was 'bout ta jump into the shower and had that dirt on her.' He then laid a thin trail of kisses along the side of her neck.
"What are ya doin' up already?"
"Just thinkin'. 'sides, it looks so nice out. The stars are so bright."
"What ya thinkin' 'bout chere?"
"Us." she turned around to face him but he wouldn't release his hold on her.
"Us?"
"We shouldn't have-" he kissed her intimately.
"Don't worry none. Everythin' fine. Just be happy fer da moment."
"Ah don't know if'n Ah can. Ya heart belongs ta somebody else. We just legally married, but ya heart-"
"Belong ta you Anna."
"How can ya say that, ya don't know meh. What 'bout Belle?"
"What 'bout Belle?"
"Ya love her."
"Thought I did, but there is somethin' 'bout you that fills that need."
"Need?"
"Ta love."
"But ya don't know meh?"
"I know it sound crazy, but been feelin' that way since I saw ya."
"Yeah, it does sound crazy." she laughed and then laid her head into his chest.
"But ya nevah broke it off with her. Ah can't be the other woman. It's one thing ta be married ta ya, but it's another to put mah heart on the line." He gently turned her face to meet his.
"Does dat mean-"
"Yeah, Ah feel the same way ya do." he smiled and then kissed her.
ELSEWHERE...
"Julien, is everythin' ready fer tomorrow."
"Oui Belle. We attack in de evenin'."
"Bien, make sure ya leave da skunkhead fer me."
