A Free Love Story by Sky Taylor

Love is Like That

 

This beautiful, exquisite goddess was big, burly Hank's sister? Luke had an urge to give himself a swift kick in the be-hind. For years, Hank had wrestled with him over his sister - attempting to arrange a blind date on more than one occasion.

 

"Hank tells me that you're not the marrying type," Kitty teased, nodding in the distance where Kirk stood swinging the confiscated garter around one index finger.

 

"He tells me the same thing about you," Luke felt inclined to share. "You're not at all what I expected."

 

"Neither are you," Kitty countered with a dazzling smile. "Being a friend of Hank's, I had expected rough, rowdy and full of fleas."

 

"Are you okay? That was quite a collision-"

 

"Quite okay," she assured with another smile. "Perhaps some punch-"

 

"Great idea," Luke smiled back, extending a bent elbow.

 

Kitty threaded her hand through the gap, then walked with him to the large table under the grandfather oak.

 

"Nice day for a wedding," Luke eased out, wanting desperately to strike up a conversation with her. Something about her.....something that seemed to hypnotize him. She sure had a nice smile. He liked that in a lady.

 

"Yes, and lucky for Karen that the rain held off." Kitty drew in a deep breath of fresh air, then timidly eased out, "I realize that you overheard the incident with my new sister in law. A bit unfortunate."

 

"Yeah. Just Karen being Karen," Luke replied, not knowing what else to say.

 

"Exactly," Kitty echoed, accepting the cup of punch from Luke. "She'll be fine now that she's blown off steam. I just hope that she realizes what a great guy she has there. And I hope that this large wedding wasn't just a fantasy that she fulfilled through Hank."

 

Luke narrowed his eyes through the distance, where Kitty was looking. Karen and Hank were posing for the wedding photographer, both smiling - Karen's a bit flat looking.

 

"Come now, doesn't every lady long for a perfect wedding day? Cake, champagne, diamond rings, live band. Looks like Karen covered all the corners."

 

"Not me," Kitty assured, her green eyes sifting to Luke's thoughtful looking face. "All the wedding grandeur in the universe can't buy love."

 

"I agree, Kitty," Luke drawled. "You sound a bit like I feel. When it comes to marriage, I suppose I have cold feet."

 

"Oh me too!" Kitty assured, reaching out a hand and touching Luke's forearm. "I'm far too independent for marriage. I enjoy my life and I refuse to have someone rearrange it to their liking. And I think that's a big fault in relationships."

 

"My thoughts exactly," Luke nodded in agreement. "You know, when two people come together as a couple, they tend to try to change one another - like they own their mate. I think if two people really love one another, they accept one another, as is -"

 

"Because once they start changing one another, they aren't the same person that they fell in love with. That doesn't go to say that there won't be disagreements along the way," Kitty finished, Luke marveling that their thoughts traveled so closely. Kitty continued, "I enjoy my horses and can't imagine my life without them-"

 

"You ride?"

 

"I have a wall of trophies, I'll have you know," she smiled. "More showmanship than riding, though. Or should I say 'show-womanship?"

 

Luke flashed a smile at her, then drawled, "Shame that we never went on that blind date, Kitty."

 

"Yes, it is," she nodded, smiling shyly. "I suppose that it's too late for that now."

 

"Guess that we'll have to make it a bona fide date, eh?"

 

One week later, Luke and Kitty escaped for a two-week honeymoon, their wedding a private affair.

 

As Kitty had inferred - Luke wasn't certain that they would never spat, because after all, they were human. He was certain, however, that he loved Kitty more than life itself. Love was a wonderful thing....
