Yes, a trip to the City will have to occur eventually. When depends on having someone else we trust to take care of our animals.”<br/><br/><em>"I think I'd like that very much.  Its a loose end in my life, and something that for better or for worse, I need to address.  I guess I have a little more backbone and sense of responsibility or maturity or whatever than Kevin had"</em><br/><br/>I smirk as she addresses her Uncle Joel....Mr. Crabtree to me....<br/><br/>“So screw Uncle Joel but yes, Darlene has been great. What should we get her as a going away present? I bet she organizes some sort of party after work and you can give it to her then. Think about it.”<br/><br/>Chloe is probably right....Im sure there will be some sort of going away party, unless Joel Crabtree decides that a two week notice is not necessary?....<br/><br/><em>"I better bring that gift on Monday.  I think Uncle Joel will jump at the chance to see my ass going out the front door for the last time!....Hope we run into him at family functions though!  I'll give him a great big kiss!"</em>#giggle....<br/><br/>“So my guest bedroom has a complete ensemble that we can put into storage against the day we furnish a house. Your bedroom set can go there. Will that work?" asks Chloe, her mind racing through permutations...<br/><br/><em>"Might I be presumptuous here?.....I assume we'll be um, sharing a bedroom?  I mean, Im pretty cute in a nightie..&lt;smile&gt;  If that assumption is correct, then lets just put my bedroom set into storage and leave your guest room as is.  If we'll be sleeping as roommates, then I'll take my bedroom items into the guest room instead...."</em><br/><br/>… sip of my drink …<br/><br/>Chloe explains that the condo has not had much decorating done to it nor has she even used kitchen!!  She rubs my hand and I leave it there, reveling in her touch.....<br/><br/>"Well, the kitchen will get used now.   Im not the cook you are, but Ive made a few meals and I learned a few tricks from you.....and yes, I agree....we'll learn to live together.....and I cant wait!"  I scrunch up my shoulders and give her the biggest smile of joy and anticipation!<br/><br/>“I am so psyched for this Kimmie! Until I saw you again last night, I wasn't sure this was what I wanted but it's like we just clicked, it's like we've always been together but never quite managed to get it together. Or something like that. I know that sounds silly but it's how I feel!”<br/><br/>I nod......<em>"Its how I feel too.  Seeing you was like finding the missing piece of myself.  I felt complete seeing you again.....I know our history, how this began and the motivations behind it all....."</em><br/><br/>I want her to know though......<em>"But I wouldnt change things.....I mean....yeah, it was rough at first...but....well.....I like being a woman.  I like being Kimmie.  Im a better person as a woman than I ever was as a man....and as Caoimhe and Chloe lived together, I came to have very strong feelings for you.  When I moved out, I was lost for a while.  Of course my father disowned me....'I had one son and two daughters, not three daughters'....blah blah blah....my sisters came around pretty quickly...so I wasnt completely alone.  I told them this way my decision and they teased me a bit about sneaking into their rooms and trying on dresses...but at least they understood."</em>I smile at remembering that incident....("Why didnt you tell us Kevin....we would have helped you!"....they were so accepting)<br/><br/><br/><em>"I guess all Im saying is that Im glad you're back....I feel 'found' again"......and I dont want to be without you in my life ever again.</em>
