Chapter Two

Thanks to everyone for the kind and encouraging reviews. I hope you enjoy chapter two just as much. There were some comments about Kitty's ability to cook. I found a lot of inconsistencies in what the writers said about that. In one episode she actually said, "I don't cook," in others you were given the impression she could cook. I guess it is up to the viewer. Amanda Blake could cook and had about five things she liked to fix but she did not love cooking.

How she ever got out of there she never knew. Somehow she managed to stumble down the steps and out the batwing doors. Leaning against a post outside the saloon she began to laugh nervously. Wait until Matt heard this story.

Kitty wasn't aware people were smiling at her as she hurried along toward her home with a grin on her face. Thankfully he was in their bedroom waiting for her. She closed the door and leaned against it. Matt glanced at her and noticed her flushed face. "what's wrong honey?" he wanted to know.

She looked at him as if she suddenly realized they were alone together. "Ugh," she began, "well…ugh…you won't believe what I just walked into at the Long Branch."

He started to get out of his chair, "trouble? Where's Newly?"

His bride waved him back. "No, no not trouble. I….well..I went to get your surprise I put it in our old room. Well imagine my surprise there was Claire barely covered on my rose covered sheets. Before I could say a word my uncle came out of the water closet naked as the day he was born."

Matt had a hard time keeping a grin off his face as he got up and walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. "Now Kitty you have seen naked men before."

"This was different. They were in our room, on our bed, with our sheets. And…..and he's MY UNCLE!" It was clear she was agitated.

Trying to calm her down he asked, "did you look at him?"

"Of course I looked he was standing right in front of me!" She exclaimed.

The ex-marshal said evenly, "he was probably as embarrassed as you were.",

"Maybe," she agreed, "but in our room."

"Kitty calm down," he began, "it isn't our room anymore. We live here. It isn't even our bed, we moved our bed here."

She smiled a little, "that's true this one was made especially for you. Oh Matt, how am I going to look them in the eye?"

"You could say nothing. They probably won't say anything if you don't," he suggested.

The redhead dropped onto the bed, "Maybe that could work but I can't imagine Claire not saying something."

Matt came to sit beside her, "I imagine they went on with what they had planned so why don't we do the same and you can show me what was so important you had to go to the saloon tonight."

"I could do that," she sighed. "It's just hard to get those pictures out of my head."

Getting up and picking up the package where she had dropped it when she came in, and giving it to her he remarked, "I can't wait to see what it is."

Slowly the redhead got up and went behind her changing screen. When she came out she was wearing a purple and gold corset with a see thru bodice and gold buttons keeping it closed. Her voluptuous breasts were straining to be released from their beautiful enclosure. Matt Dillon gulped at a loss or words.

"Is there anything you see that you like?" she asked seductively

"Oh Honey, there is plenty that I like," he said licking his lips.

She walked toward him hips swaying. "Then it is time to start unwrapping your gift."

Before he began to do as she asked he pulled her to him and said, "do you know how much I love you Mrs. Dillon?"

Kitty stood on her tiptoes and kissed his lips. "I think I do, but you can keep telling me."

He lifted her into his arms and kissed her neck. He murmured, "how about if I show you just how you make me feel."

Walking to that big bed that was made especially to fit his long length he placed her gently on the rose colored sheets she had bought to replace the ones at the Long Branch.

"Now young lady let's try and get your mind on us and not anyone else."

As she pulled him close, she said in a low throaty purr, "let's see what you can do Cowboy."

Back at the Long Branch Claire sat up wrapping the sheet around her and looked at Sam Smith standing there in all his glory. She started to laugh as she asked, "what was that all about?"

He moved toward her and sat next to her on the bed. "That was my niece that was just here wasn't it? She got out of here so fast I thought she was seeing a ghost."

Claire grinned, "Oh she was seeing something, but I never heard it called a ghost. From what I see now I sure hope it isn't a mirage."

He took her hand and kissed it lightly as he assured her, "I can assure you, my dear, it is no mirage. Anything you are anticipating young lady; your beauty and sensuality will certainly make sure the performance will get a standing ovation.

"I certainly hope I haven't lost my touch," she told him as she slowly but sensuously ran her fingers over his bare-naked chest."

He stilled her hand as she began to move it lower. "There is no reason to move too fast. I locked the door again and I don't think my niece will be returning any time soon."

As she started to laugh the blond told him, "I think we can count on that."

"Then I think we have much more important matters to occupy our time." He said as he pulled off the sheet and admired her luscious curves."

She held out her arms to him. "Sam how about you show me what is just so special about you government men."

The sun was peeking over the horizon when Kitty opened her sapphire blue eyes and turned to look at the handsome man lying next to her She still had trouble believing he wouldn't be sneaking out the back door to go to his office. They could go to sleep together and wake up together. She brushed her hand over his thick curls.

"Do you see something you like Madam?" he asked sleepily

She smiled and said, "I am a madam now. No more Miss, and yes you are something I always like to look at."

"It is hard for me to believe you still want this scarred up, battle hardened ex-marshal," Matt told her.

Kitty ran her fingers down his whiskery cheek as she remarked, "To me you are always that tall, handsome, broad shouldered, honest, lovable man, who kept me here in Dodge."

"That always amazed me too. You told me you would love to go to San Francisco yet here you are in my bed and in my arms."

She smiled, "I can't help it if you are irresistible."

He teased her, "I remember several times when you left here just swearing up and down you didn't want to see me or my damn badge ever again."

"And one time you even came and got me, and once you rescued me from a pit at my goldmine, and when I was lost you found me, and…

Interrupting her he held up his hand, "I get the picture. Brushing back her hair and kissing her nose he said, "I couldn't stand the possibility of losing you either."

Kitty cuddled up to him. "Then I guess we are just meant to be together, forever."

"You are stuck with me now Mrs. Dillon. Oh, don't forget Sam and I are taking Steve Radcliffe to the Denver area for his new assignment tomorrow," he reminded her.

She sighed, "Alright it will give me a chance to talk to Claire and I'm sure you and my uncle will have an interesting conversation."

"That remains to be seen. Well I suppose we should get up and have some breakfast unless you can think of something else you would like to do," he suggested.

His wife was just full of suggestions.
