him before. That's where they ate their dinner. When they were
done they just layed there and looked into each other's eyes. With the way Jack was looking at her she could tell he was
thinking about something. She asked, "What?" Jack answered, "Nothing. At least you won't answer me anyway. I'm just
wondering what's coming up that your preparing me for or something. Or you have a favor to ask of me and you think you
need to make me in a really good mood to ask me it. And if it's that, you don't need to. Whatever it is, I'll do it. Just ask me."
Kattie smiled, "I don't want nothing. And I'm not planning nothing. I just want to spend time with the man I love."
Chapter 13: July 25th, Going Back
Kattie was sitting up in bed with her arms wrapped around her knees that were brought up to her chest. She looked at the
man that was lying asleep next to her. It was 12:30 in the afternoon. Jack stirred and Kattie layed down leaning on his chest
waking him up the rest of the way. Jack opened his eyes and Kattie said, "I love your chest." Jack laughed, "I see. As it
seems that you just had to lay on it." Kattie looked up, "Did I bother you? I didn't mean to bother you. I was just admiring your
chest." Jack chuckled and kissed her forehead, "You didn't bother me. And I'm happy to please your eyes. 'Cause you
definitely please my eyes." Kattie kissed him for the next three minutes without stopping. Kattie was the one to pull away. She
started kissing his chest and then she got up. Jack looked at her, "Teaser." Kattie laughed, "That's my job. But don't worry I
didn't tease just you. Now get out of bed." Jack looked at her with eyes that said make me. Kattie knew it too but she just left
the room. Waiting out in the hall for him. Jack sighed and got out of bed. He got his shirt on and met her out in the hall,
"You're mean." Kattie went into his arms and kissed him, "Never. I always give rewards." Then she pulled away and went
downstairs. Jack followed her into the library, "Don't you want to go get lunch since we missed breakfast?" Kattie sat on the
couch, "You can go if you want. I'm not to hungry." Jack sat beside her and put his hand on her stomach, "Are you feeling
okay?" Kattie threw her head back on the back of the couch and said, "I'm fine. Don't worry. I'm not lying. I wouldn't lie now.
Not with a baby." Kattie just didn't want to eat because she was nervous about leaving him today. Very nervous. So nervous
that she was suprised she didn't start shaking or faint. Jack replied, "Well you let me know if you want anything. I'm going to
go get my work done for today so we can have the rest of the day to ourselves." "Jack. Wait." Kattie said as he was about to
leave. She walked over to him and looked at him in the eyes. Jack asked, "What?" Kattie then suddenly kissed him. She
kissed him with passion. It was a kiss Jack hadn't experienced before. A goodbye kiss. When she pulled away Jack asked,
"What was that for?" Kattie shrugged her shoulders, "I love you." The way she said it was different from all the other times
she had said it to him. This would be the last time she would say it to him. Jack smiled and kissed her, "I love you too. Now
I'll see you in about a hour and a half and we can finish that kiss." When Jack was out of earshot Kattie said to herself, "No
you won't." Kattie then went to Mr. McNight and asked, "Mr. McNight. Could you do me a favor? It's really important that you
do this." Mr. McNight said, "What is it?" Kattie looked at him, "I'm going to be going out. After a hour has passed after I left
tell Jack that I went to my house. He'll know what to do. He'll know what I mean. Could you do that for me?" Mr. McNight
answered, "Of course." Kattie said, "Thanks. Remember, wait a hour to tell him." Kattie left in the carrige and went back to her
house. It was still early, only 1:30. Kattie wrote a letter to Jack that said:
Dear Jack,
I know it's going to look like I betrayed you. And I admit it, I am
betraying you. And our baby. And me. But I want you to know that
I love you very much. And that's why I'm doing this. I can't let you
get hurt like my family did. I'm doing this to protect you. To keep
you safe. And don't worry. I won't let him hurt our baby. That's
one thing I'm sure I won't let him do. I need to do this. I love
you. Remember that. You will always have my love and my heart.
No one else. But I have to go back with Victor. It's my only choice,
my only way to protect you. I know you feel as if you need to
protect me. But you don't. The first day I met you I tried to reject you.
But one thing led to another. I'm glad it did. The past weeks that I spent
with you were the best weeks of my life. I love you. Always. Take care.

Kattie
Kattie set the letter on top of the letter Victor wrote to her letting her know where to meet him. She didn't realize that she
had put it there and she left.
Jack was working in his office when there was a knock on the door. "Come in." Jack said. Mr. McNight walked in and
bowed, "My lord, Kattie said it was urgent that I give you a message. She told me to wait a hour after she left to tell you. She
said she was going back to her house and that you would know what to do, sir. But I thought since it was urgent that I'd tell
you a little earlier than she said." The words had stunned Jack, he couldn't believe what he was hearing. Was she? Could it
be? Jack got up and ran past Mr.McNight. He ran straight out to the horses that were tied up to the gate and rode out to her
house. He rode as fast as the horse could go. When he got to her house he didn't even bother knocking. He barged in
through the door, "Kattie! Kattie!" Jack looked in the kitchen and seen the note on the table. He picked both letters up. He
first read the letter that Kattie had wrote him. The words made his heart rise to his throat. Then he felt that there was another
note in his hand. He read the letter that Victor had written to Kattie. He rushed out and ran straight to the park.
Kattie was standing outside the park behind a couple trees. Sight closed to the people in the park, but totally open to the
people outside of the park. She could see the people in the park, and in fact, she was starring straight at the man who has
forced her to leave her love. At Victor. She was crying. This was it. The time that she would betray Jack and at the same time,
save him. While Kattie was thinking a man grabbed her arm and twirled her around, but Victor was still in the park. It was
Jack. Kattie's heart stopped for a second. How would she go through with their plan now? Jack definitely wouldn't let her go.
"Jack. You have to let me go. I have to go." Kattie said trying to pull away, but Jack didn't let go and pulled back. Jack
answered, "No. You don't have to go. You can't go. I need you here." Jack began to cry. Kattie replied, "I have to. He'll kill
you. I need to. I can't let you die. Not like the others. I won't let your death be my fault too." Kattie was already crying but she
cried even more. Jack put his hands on her face making her look at him, "It's not your fault. And I'm not going to die. And
neither are you. You're not going back with him. I'd be sentencing you to death if I let you go. Think about our baby." Jack
put his one hand on her stomach. "What are you going to tell our baby? What about our baby's safety? What's going to
happend to both of you?" Kattie closed her eyes and burried her head into his chest. She held on to his shirt. Jack put his
arms around her. Kattie said, "But how am I going to protect you then? I can't take it if you were to die." Jack kissed her
forehead, "Now would you let me protect you? I can protect you. Please let me." Kattie was still crying but she was silently crying. She looked up at Jack and wipped his tears away. Jack put his arm around her and walked her back to her house. When they got there Jack put Kattie on the horse and got on behind her. Jack rode off and Kattie leaned back on his chest. Kattie
looked up at Jack, "I'm sorry. I just wanted to protect you. I love you." Jack replied, "I love you too. And I understand why you
were going to do it. I would have done the same thing to save your life. And I don't actually think that you would have gone."
Kattie asked, "Why not?" Jack answered, "Because you would've been in there already." Kattie corrected, "I was only
thinking. And trying to pull myself together. I was crying to much and I couldn't stop. I would've gone. But, fortunately, you
came and convinced me to come back with you." Jack smiled and put his free hand around her stomach.
When they arrived at the palace Kattie was asleep. All the comotion that had just went on just drained the energy out of her.
Jack carefully carried her into the palace and up into their room. He carefully put her on the bed, covered her up, and left
shutting the door behind him. When he went into the hallway Mr. McNight was standing out there waiting for him, "Is she
alright, sir?" Jack answered him, "Yes she's
