FINAL DRAFT OF MOUNTAIN LILLIE BY CHERYL V.

MOUNTAIN LILLIE
INTRODUCTION
BACKFLASH:
CHER BEAR was living with her parents in St. Clair, Michigan right on the lake. CHER BEAR’s parents were sitting outside on the front porch on one sunny day when they jus happened to see this young man, walking down the street. And he appeared to be very ragged-looking in a pair of faded blue jeans with holes in them. He has a rugged-looking, angular face with hollow features along with brown eyes and a tall, thin build. Also, he looked like hasn’t been sleeping for some days and night.
So, then, CHER BEAR’S dad caught up with the young man as he reached CHER BEAR’S dad’s house. The young man seemed to be walking, aimlessly, down the street with a distant and lonely look on his face.
As CHER BEAR’S dad approached him, he said to the young man in a curious way, “Hey there, my boy, how come, you’re out on the streets, alone? It’s dangerous to be walking the streets after dusk by yourself. Where are your mom and dad at this time of night? You appear to be too young to be walking in the streets at this time of night without having someone like your mom or dad along with you for protection.”
“It so happens to be that I don’t have a mom or even a dad in my life, anymore. In fact, it happens to be that I’m the only sibling in my family. I jus ran away from home, and I have nowhere to go to live.”
“C’mon with me, my boy; by the way, what’s your name?”
“My name is JUSTIN; would you mind, taking me into your home?”
CHER BEAR’S dad replied, “No, I don’t mind, my boy, I’m more than willing to take you into my home, and I’m sure, my wife, here, won’t mind either.”
“However, the thing is that I have very little money on my person. As far as I know, I should, still, have money in the bank. But I have worked odd jobs, here and there. However, there’s one problem, here. I don’t have any way of getting some money from either my mom or dad.”
“My boy, why can’t you get any money from your parents when it’s your money?”
“One of them has my bank card, and I know whoever has it, won’t give it to me to use because neither of them seem to trust me to take care of my own money. However, if you’re willing to allow me to work around the house, and support me for working for you. I’ll be glad to be of service to you.”
“C’mon, my boy, I’ll be more than glad to accept your willingness to help my wife and me around the house.”
“C’mon, my boy, take my hand, and I’ll introduce you to my wife and only daughter.”
So, then, as JUSTIN and the owner of the house walked up to the front porch, JUSTIN seemed to get quiet, all of a sudden.
Then, CHER BEAR’s dad said to him, “Well, my boy, this is my wife, FLORENCE.”
With a surprised look on her face, she replied, “Well, I’m very glad to meet you, my boy.”
Jus then, CHER BEAR jus happened to walk out onto the porch, so, her dad introduced the young man to CHER BEAR, “This is my only daughter, CHER BEAR, and she’s going on fifteen years of age, this year. And by the way, I’m LARRY; it’s nice meeting you, my boy. And by the way, how old are you?”
“It jus happens that I turned seventeen, only, a few weeks ago. I’ve been staying at a shelter, here, in the city. And the reason, I have run away from my mom and dad, is because we don’t seem to get along, anymore. A week ago, we all got into a big fight, and since then, I haven’t been able to stand living with either of them, anymore.”
LARRY replied, “Don’t worry about a thing, my son. Are you hungry or thirsty; when’s the last time, you had a decent meal or something to drink?”
“Well, the last time, I had anything was last night.”
So, then, from that day on LARRY made sure, that all of his needs were met. And he allowed the young man to live over at his house without paying any rent to live, there.
However, LARRY took in the young man as part of his family as a foster son. From the first day on, CHER BEAR seemed to take to him, right away. And the two became jus like sister and brother because they were jus like peas and carrots to each other. This was because he needed a sister in his life as well as a mom and dad who would, really, give him, a lot of loving care.
CHER BEAR needed the man in her life because he could be like a brother to her. So, the two developed family love for each other. This happened in their lives, practically, overnight. Also, both LARRY and FLORENCE became father and mother models to him.
Since, both CHER BEAR and JUSTIN took a liking to each other, the two started going boating in her parents’ green and silver fishing boat when it was warm enough outside to do it. And during the cooler weather, the two took walks around the lake, together. And when it was cold outside, the two took their walks on the shoulder out in the streets being careful to, always, watch for cars.
CHAPTER I
PROLOGUE:
Originally, CHER BEAR’S parents found out about some cabin. And this cabin is located on Van Arrington Road near Panther Creek Road in the city of Clyde in North Carolina. And this place jus happened to be amidst the mountains. LARRY and FLORENCE, CHER BEAR’S blood parents, found out about this cabin through a member of LARRY’S family who was living in the heart of Kentucky near the mountains.
However, CHER BEAR and JUSTIN never found out jus how CHER BEAR’S parents discovered this cabin in the mountains jus because CHER BEAR’S parents wanted to keep it, one big secret. One day, LARRY and FLORENCE wanted to surprise both CHER BEAR and JUSTIN when they all took their first trip down south to the cabin. And being that both LARRY and FLORENCE wanted a big taste of living amongst the mountains, they might jus all move down south.
So, then, on one sunny, hot summer morning with clear blue skies, they all left on a long trip for North Carolina. And the whole family took off for the mountains down south jus after they all had their clothes packed along with plenty of imperishable food, energy drinks and bottles of flavored water.
The whole family, LARRY, FLORENCE, JUSTIN, AND CHER BEAR was unaware of jus how long it would take to get to North Carolina on a trip via the family car, a blue Ford minivan. This trip turned out to be their very first one, there, down south to North Carolina. So, they all left about ten o’clock in the morning for their destination right after a good breakfast. Somehow, CHER BEAR’S parents thought that they all would arrive, there, at the cabin, at least, by the middle of the afternoon.
The trip turned out to be longer than expected because the whole family had to travel by means of the highway through Ohio, Tennessee, and Kentucky before arriving in North Carolina at the cabin. They all, finally, arrived at their destination after having made a total of four stops along the way to get gas, to eat lunch and dinner and for a couple of good walks to stretch their legs.
The whole bunch, finally, arrived at the cabin around ten o’clock in the evening. And by that time, they all were so tired jus from all that traveling, that they, only, unpacked what they all needed for the night. Then, when the morning came around, after they all had some breakfast, they were going to unpack the rest of the stuff from the minivan.
CHER BEAR and her parents went right to sleep that night not long after they all arrived over at the cabin. However, since, JUSTIN couldn’t seem to get himself to fall asleep because he was so restless, he got up out of the day bed. After getting up out of bed, then, he walked outside onto the front porch. There, he sat on a wooden rocker, and tried to make peace with nature for about an hour.
After that hour was up, he, still, was, patiently, sitting there on the front porch, trying to get himself, tired enough to go sleep. While he’s out in front of the cabin, some gal with a heavy Southern accent, showed up at the cabin as if through some uncanny magic.
To him, this gal has some pretty features, like blue eyes which seem to glisten in the moonlight and short, blond hair.
So, jus as she walked up to JUSTIN, he said to her in a curious way, “Well, my dear, what brings you here to the cabin, tonight?”
“I jus happened to be passing this cabin on my evening walk like I, usually, do, and every night near dusk. And it’s that I jus happened to catch eye of you, sitting, there, on the front porch, sporting some lonely and far away look on your face. By the way, can I ask you what your name is? Also, are you feeling like you are in need of some company, tonight?”
“Sure, my dear, you can ask me, anything, you wish. My name jus happens to be JUSTIN? And I, certainly, can say that right now, I’m in great need of some company. My girl is inside the cabin, and, probably, is buried in her writing on her laptop computer, or jus relaxing while playing one of her favorite computer games.”
After a brief pause as he studied her face, he said to her, “However, it’s not what you may think when I refer to her as my girl,” as if he could read the gals’ mind, “the two of us, my girl and I aren’t, currently, going steady or anything like that.”
“Then, what is it, you’re, actually, referring to, may I ask?”
“It goes like this. CHER BEAR’S parents took me into the family, way back when I turned seventeen, years ago. One time, her parents were sitting out on the front porch when they jus happened to catch sight of me.”
“And where is it that they jus happened to see you, back then?”
“It’s jus that her parents happened to catch eye of me, walking down the street back in Michigan where we all are living at the present right on the lake in St. Clair. So, what brings you, here, tonight, to the cabin?”
“I jus am having this weird feeling inside me, that you have this urge inside to meet me, that’s all.”
“Well, my dear, my girl’s jus sleeping inside the cabin, right now. And not even a rooster can wake her up in the morning being she, always, seems to sleep like a cat, no matter, if it be at home in St. Clair or, here, at the cabin.”
“How about if I take a seat by you in one of the wooden chairs out here on the front porch?”
“Be my guest, my dear gal, and what’s your name, may I ask?”
“My real name jus happens to be LISA, however all my friends, family, and neighbors call me, MOUNTAIN LILLIE.”
“To me, MOUNTAIN LILLIE is a pretty name. And it jus seems to fit you, so perfectly, because I jus know, that you must live in the mountains, my dear.”
Then, MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN jus sat there on the front porch in their chairs jus as it’s starting to get dark. And in a way, she jus wanted to sit there in silence being she jus loved making peace with nature along with him. This, also, gave her, a chance to get acquainted with him. And sitting in silence was her way of feeling him out.
The two were through making peace with nature, an hour later, there, on the front porch. So, then, he decided he wanted to get to bed before CHER BEAR’S parents have a chance to catch him being out on the front porch with MOUNTAIN LILLIE at one o’clock in the morning. And he figured, if she walked back home by herself in the dark, she would be setting herself up for trouble.
Then, he said to her, “My dear, I think, I’ll go to bed now, however I won’t like worrying about you, walking down the roads in the dark at this time of night. You never know who could be out on the roads. This is the time of night when the bad boys are out riding on their tractors or four-wheelers. And you never know what could happen if you jus run into one of these bad boys, my dear. So, come over here to my foster dad’s army green four-wheeler with me, and I’ll take you home.”
Jus as the two were hopping into the green four-wheeler which belonged to CHER BEAR’S dad, he said to MOUNTAIN LILLIE, “Hold on tight, my dear, because this contraption of LARRY’S, always, seems to move, very quickly, over these hilly roads.”
Then, the two were on their way down the road and over to where she lived on Panther Creek Road. This was jus after she gave him, the directions to where she’s living with her parents and her only sister, MOUNTAIN SARAH.
And as JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE arrived, there, up in the mountains right in front of her parents’ cabin, he helped her off the four-wheeler.
Then, he said to her, “Well, it has been nice meeting you, my dear. And please be sure to take some time to stop over, again, at the cabin to see me. Don’t worry about my girl; we’re, only, like sister and brother to each other. She won’t get jealous of us two, seeing each other if she ever finds out about you.”
As he kissed MOUNTAIN LILLIE, briefly, she said to him, “I’ll think hard about dropping over at the cabin, again. How about if I come over during early morning around seven o’clock when, I, usually, take my morning walk?”
“That will be fine with me, my dear MOUNTAIN LILLIE. I’m sure my girl’s parents won’t mind you, coming over to the cabin, at all. In fact, every time, someone, even a stranger like you, drops over there. Well, anyone who does, has, always, been very welcome because they know all Southerners are very friendly. And they both like that in a Southerner like you. Goodbye for now,” he said as he kissed her for the second time.
So, MOUNTAIN LILLIE started dropping over at the cabin, at least, every night. And every night, JUSTIN could sense jus when she would be dropping over to see him. And it turned out that he would be able to catch her, every night.
At first, the two jus would sit on the front porch in silence, trying to feel each other out. Also, every time, she would come to see him, he would say to her, “Let us sit out here on the front porch, and do what I call making peace with nature.”
Then, the very first time, he wanted her to try this nature thing with him, he said to her, “C’mon jus sit down here on the porch besides me.”
She replied, “What do you do next to make peace with nature?”
Then, he said to her, “What you do is jus, simply, tune your ears into whatever sounds of nature, you are hearing around you. Concentrate on the sounds of the birds like the chickens and the rooster around here. And don’t forget to listen for the cows, mooing across the road at the mountain over there. Also, you can do something to make peace with nature through every time, you jus happen to catch sight of the horse which hangs around here.”
“What is the horse’s name, and what else should I do to get myself, acquainted with nature and, also, the horse?”
“Jus follow me over to the right side of the cabin, and you’ll, usually, find a horse named Ranger, a pretty reddish-brown horse, jus hanging around here. He, usually, is waiting for someone to feed him, some carrots or he’ll even eat cobs from corn, too.”
So, then, she followed him over to the side of the cabin where there was a wire fence to keep the horse from wandering away from its’ habitat.
So, then, he said to her as she followed him over to where Ranger, really, was standing there on the grass, “make sure that you don’t go near that wire fence because you’ll get a shock from it if you get too close to it. And I don’t want to see you, end up getting knocked out from the fencing. I’m not trying to scare you, my dear. I jus don’t want you to end up getting hurt.”
Then, he handed her, a carrot from a bunch of carrots which he had grabbed from the wooden table on the porch jus before walking over to the horse with her.
“So what you do is jus put the carrot near the horse’s mouth. And then, he will nibble the carrot, however be careful because the horse likes to nibble on your clothes.”
So, every time, she came over to the cabin at night, she and JUSTIN walked over to Ranger, every time, they happened to notice the horse on the mountain. And each time, the horse would take a carrot from either of them, and nibble on it until it was gone, eating the carrot whole.
In a very weird way, jus visiting the horse, every night, turned out to be one way for the two to get to know each other, and to enjoy each other’s company.
CHER BEAR doesn’t suspect what has been going on between JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE. This is because when MOUNTAIN LILLIE happens to drop over in the evening, CHER BEAR is buried in her laptop computer.
And in the early morning, CHER BEAR, usually, is awake before parents. However she knows, JUSTIN, also, is an early walker. However she never bothers to check on him because she, simply, doesn’t care what he’s up to in the early morning. This because she jus assumes, that he’s going for an early morning walk down the road. And he, usually, likes his morning walks right after breakfast before the heat of the day starts coming by like a lion.
However, he never can figure out why CHER BEAR never goes on her morning walks with him, anymore, because he thought, he and her were jus like peas and carrots. And walking together in the morning jus to be with each other has been a natural thing for the two to be doing.
CHER BEAR hasn’t been going on walks with him while the family has been on their vacation, there, in North Carolina. For some reason, he hasn’t been able to figure out, ever since, the family has been spending some time, trying to get used to being in North Carolina.
CHER BEAR has gotten more attached to her writing on her laptop computer. It jus has gotten more interesting and entertaining to her, partly, because being on her computer inside the cabin, for her, has been helping the time, pass by, and keeping her, occupied.
However, in the meantime, she, also, has seemed to have forgotten, and realize, that in being in love with JUSTIN means. She has to put some time aside to keep him, company, if she, badly, wants him to keep having feelings of affection for her. So, she hasn’t been making any effort to show him, her feelings of affection in any way. This has been, ever since, the family has been having their first vacation in North Carolina.
She has been trying to keep herself cool in the hot North Carolina weather which she hasn’t been able to get used to being outside in. This is because if she happens to go outside on an extra hot and very humid day, the humid weather can cause her to pass out. And, sometimes, when she becomes tired of writing or jus needs a break of writing, every so often, She’ll jus take a nap inside the cabin on the day bed without JUSTIN even knowing when she takes her free time.
For one thing, her computer plays all this loud music when she’s on her computer, writing or jus playing games. And to her, all of the computer sounds seem to drown out all noises, coming from outside like the sounds of the birds and animals. Also, it has been stopping her from hearing MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN talking to each other whenever she’s over at the cabin to see JUSTIN.
Especially, at night, CHER BEAR never yet has suspected MOUNTAIN LILLIE being around outside of the cabin from the very first day on which the two met. And another thing, she hasn’t been aware of, is that every morning, early in the morning, is that MOUNTAIN LILLIE has been making it, a point, to stop at the cabin during her morning walk.
So, CHER BEAR hasn’t had the slightest idea, yet, that MOUNTAIN LILLIE has been seeing JUSTIN at night or even in the early morning hours. This is, mostly, because CHER BEAR has been doing her writing from early morning until the late hours of the night.
MOUNTAIN LILLIE, always, seems to catch JUSTIN, sitting outside on the front porch. Also, being the two have been seeing each other, steadily, and going for walks down the road in the morning, together, for, at least, a week. This means they have been enjoying each other’s company, very thoroughly.
By now, even CHER BEAR’S parents have been leaving her, alone at her computer. And being they know and value her privacy, they don’t even ask her in the morning to have breakfast with them, anymore. Neither do they ask JUSTIN what he has been up to.
Even though, his foster parents have been aware, he’s been spending a lot of time, outside even during the heat of the day. And he’s, always, awake in the morning before his foster parents are. So, they jus have been figuring that he’s jus been doing his own thing out there outside the cabin.
CHAPTER II
One night JUSTIN assumed CHER BEAR, still, was awake inside the cabin, buried in her writing as usual. So, then, JUSTIN decided he wanted to have a deep conversation with MOUNTAIN LILLIE while the family was on their vacation.
So, that night, he jus took MOUNTAIN LILLIE by the hand, and the two were about to take a walk over to the camper. However they had to run over to the camper being it was starting to pour outside.
And when they, finally, reached the camper, and he closed the door behind them, JUSTIN said to MOUNTAIN LILLIE in a loving way, “My dear MOUNTAIN LILLIE, why don’t you jus have a seat right here on the other side of the small table. I think it’s time that we have a good talk, together. And try to find out where we stand with each other.”
So, as she took her seat, and made herself, comfortable, he, then, said to her, “Jus try to reveal some of your feelings to me. I know that I and the rest of the family will be leaving for Michigan, soon. However, I jus would like to know where we stand with each other. For one thing, I and the rest of the family are all planning to move into this cabin, very soon. So, I jus would like to have a good talk, together, before it’s time to leave.”
So, then, she said to him with loving eyes, talking as her eyes appeared to be very starry-looking in the dimness of the camper, “For one thing, my darling JUSTIN, I would like to know. Has CHER BEAR, really, in love with you? And has she been showing any love to you in any way, especially, in these last few weeks in which we have been getting together?”
“To tell you, the truth, I don’t know if CHER BEAR ever loved me in the first place. Even though, she used to put some time aside from her writing to spend some of her time with me. And ever since, we have been in North Carolina, all she seems to care about is trying to stay out of the heat of the day. However, at night, she never seems to make any effort to show any love to me. Not even some sisterly love like she used to when I, first, moved into the house back in Michigan. She jus seems to care about herself and nobody else, not even me.”
“Does she ever tell you, she’s glad to have you for a brother in any way?”
“No, my dear MOUNTAIN LILLIE. And I seem to be losing my trust in her. I think that I need to talk to her parents about the way; she’s been acting towards me. I thought that the last two years, I’ve known her, that she has been falling in love with me. And now, I seem to doubt her love for me. Also, this seems to leave me in the dark. This is because I’m not sure if I even love her, anymore.”
“I think that you should start showing her, more brotherly love. And see if this doesn’t bring her around to realize what love, she has for you if any, anymore.”
“Right now, I need to know whether you like or love me at this point. I know it has been, only, about three weeks, since, we have been seeing each other. I’m not sure, myself; however I have been having the feeling. And I’ve been feeling like I’ve been falling in love with you, my dear. Also, I may have, originally, been love at first sight without even realizing it.”
“I hope this doesn’t mean false love because you’ve jus told me. CHER BEAR has been acting like she’s withdrawn into herself. And this is not good, not even for you, because from the first time, you met her; you’ve craved her sisterly love.”
“No, I know the difference between brotherly love and true love. So, my feelings of affection for you have been growing from the very first time, we’ve met. However, since, we haven’t known each other, that long, I can’t be sure if this is love, yet. I have to get to know you better; first, before I can know what kind of feelings, I am having for you at this point in our relationship.”
“The way, I’m feeling for you, is that I have taken a big liking to you. And I think it’s possible that this liking could be a possible launch to falling in love with you. Also, I have taken to trusting you with all my heart and soul. And I know for sure, jus through having been feeling all of this affection inside me for you, my dear. That you have become a soul buddy to me.”
“Okay, my dear, right now, I am having the feeling inside. That either of my parents might jus tries to spy on us jus because we are inside the camper. And this is, only, because, tonight, they will be starting to pack because I and the rest of the family will be leaving for Michigan, tomorrow. So, I think you’d better leave before dark, so, that you will be able to find your way back home. And I mean before the crazy people come out and about in the wee hours of the night.”
So, as the two walked out of the camper, he said to her in a low voice while giving her, a brief kiss, “Goodbye, my dear, I’ll be seeing you, again, when the family moves into the cabin for good if we ever do so.”
So, she said to him, softly, “It was nice meeting you, and you can be sure, that we’ll be seeing each other, many more times. Bye, JUSTIN.”
Then, JUSTIN walked over to the front porch, and made peace with nature. In the meantime, she hopped onto her tractor. And then, she took off down the road as he waved goodbye to her with tears in his eyes.
CHER BEAR and JUSTIN along with CHER BEAR’S parents moved to North Carolina, one bright, sunny morning from Michigan because her parents wanted to spend the rest of their lives, there.
And CHER BEAR’S parents wanted themselves along with JUSTIN and CHER BEAR to stay one happy family like they have been when they were living in Michigan, all this time.
In fact, on that one day they all moved to the cabin, when they arrived in Clyde, North Carolina, they all arrived there in a camper. And the camper pulled the minivan behind it, all the way there. And CHER BEAR’S dad drove the camper all the way to Clyde with her and JUSTIN in back of the camper.
And both of them snoozed most of the way to their destination while her mom snoozed in the front near her step dad during all 12 hours of the trip there. So, they all pulled into the hilly driveway near the cabin.
It jus so happened, that MOUNTAIN LILLIE was the one, about who JUSTIN has been teasing CHER BEAR. And it has been about him and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, having been seeing each other, every night.
So, it jus happened, that MOUNTAIN LILLIE did, really, show up at the cabin jus by coincidence jus not long after they all hopped out of the camper.
And JUSTIN even had the guts to introduce CHER BEAR to MOUNTAIN LILLIE, while CHER BEAR, still, was around the camper.
BACKFLASH:
And jus before today came around, JUSTIN seems to have been chiding to CHER BEAR about the fact. That he and MOUNTAIN LILLIE have been having some loving, nightly, in back of the shed on the last trip to the cabin.
And CHER BEAR, only, denied everything back then, during that vacation time.
However, CHER BEAR, only, took all this about MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN as one big lie, back then.
And CHER BEAR had, originally, thought that her conscious kept putting her on about JUSTIN, having another girl in his life, mainly, MOUNTAIN LILLIE. This was the main reason why she never bothered to check up on what JUSTIN was up to outside.
And the way, her conscious has been trying to trick her during the vacation to North Carolina, actually, drove her to spending most of her time, writing and playing games on her laptop computer.
In fact, she never believed one word which her conscious would keep trying to tell her, day and night about JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE being buddies.
This, solely, was because every time, MOUNTAIN LILLIE would happen to stop over to see JUSTIN at night, back then, that she would, mostly, stop over to see him during the very early morning and, sometime, during the night. And that was when he knew, CHER BEAR was asleep inside the cabin or writing on her computer.
So, as MOUNTAIN LILLIE walked up to JUSTIN, she’s unaware that CHER BEAR was more than a sister to him.
So, because MOUNTAIN LILLIE happened to run into CHER BEAR, then, she said to CHER BEAR, “Hi, I’m MOUNTAIN LILLIE, and by the way, I’m sure you won’t mind hearing what I have to tell you, my girl. This is, since, you and JUSTIN is jus sister and brother at heart.”
Then, after a brief pause as she studied CHER BEAR for a moment or two, then, she said to CHER BEAR, “During the last trip when you two were here, staying at the cabin, it jus so happened, that while you were sleeping inside the camper… Well, I and JUSTIN, back then, always, were meeting every night right in front of the cabin. And as we have been trying to get to know each other better, I and JUSTIN jus may be falling in love with each other. At least, I’ve been having these feelings of affection for him. However, I don’t know for sure if he has been having the same feelings for me.”
“Why is this, and why does it so happen, that you two could be falling in love with each other,” replied CHER BEAR with an evil eye, “you aren’t putting me on, are you? Because if you are, you could be in for some good trouble because JUSTIN and I aren’t jus brother and sister. We two have been in love with each other for some time, now. That’s about, almost, since, the first year, he happened to move in with me and my parents.”
So, MOUNTAIN LILLIE said to her, “No, I’m not putting you on, my girl. And I think that you’re jus joshing about the fact that you two are in love. Well, you two could be experiencing the type of love that a brother and sister have in common. However, I think you’re mistaken about the fact that you two are in true love because I happen to be the one, he, really, is in love with, not you.”
Then, CHER BEAR would not even say another word to MOUNTAIN LILLIE because she jus found something about her which she couldn’t stand at this time.
So, CHER BEAR jus walked away from her, and went about her own business, and also, grabbed a hold of JUSTIN’S arm. However, then, he, suddenly, let go of her, and because it’s so hot outside, already, CHER BEAR didn’t know what else to do, so, she jus stormed inside the cabin. And then, she tried to stay cool for the rest of the afternoon, at least, while it’s so hot outside.
Jus to get her mind off of him and what MOUNTAIN LILLIE jus told her, CHER BEAR jus went about her own way, writing on her computer.
And then, JUSTIN started having these desperate feelings inside him which seemed to hit him, all of a sudden. These desperate feelings, he realized, seemed to haunt him inside because, now, he’s afraid, he might jus lose both CHER BEAR and MOUNTAIN LILLIE in his life.
And he didn’t know what he’d do without CHER BEAR in his life because for quite a few years, since, he lived in St. Clair with her. Both he and he have been jus like sister and brother, and he didn’t want anything to interfere with their relationship.
So, then, he turned quite confused, and didn’t know if he should jus allow CHER BEAR to fade out of his life. Or come running with such force after MOUNTAIN LILLIE. That she would think twice before ever thinking about trying to leave him jus because of what his sister told her about JUSTIN and her.
Now, he’s having this urge to run inside the cabin, and try to make up with CHER BEAR. However, if he tried this, he jus might lose MOUNTAIN LILLIE in his life.
So, now, he’s feeling like part of him wants to run after CHER BEAR, and get her sisterly love back inside him.
However, the other part of him which could be in love with MOUNTAIN LILLIE, his heart and soul, couldn’t get any domination over him at this time. As a result of this, he doesn’t know if he has any sisterly love left for CHER BEAR besides feelings of affection for her. Or if MOUNTAIN LILLIE, really, is the one in his life who he’s having all these feelings of affection for.
So, since, MOUNTAIN LILLIE jus walked away from him, and took off on her way back home. JUSTIN jus wasn’t feeling at all like himself. So, he decided he should, at least, confront CHER BEAR if she would allow him to do so. And for now, concentrate on treating her more like a sister, than he has been, ever since, he, first, met MOUNTAIN LILLIE when the family was on vacation at the cabin.
So then, he, casually, walked into the cabin and right over to where CHER BEAR wasn’t even doing any writing at this time. And as he approached her, at first, she acted like he even wasn’t around her.
However, as she, suddenly, was aware of him, standing near her. She was lost for words, at first, and very confused inside, herself, especially, having a hard time in dealing with her feelings.
However, after getting herself, together, she then, stopped playing games. And she allowed him to sit near her, at least, for now while her parents were busy watching television in their bedroom.
In the meantime, if MOUTAIN LILLIE jus allowed JUSTIN to walk away from her. She would soon regret it because on her way back home, she couldn’t get JUSTIN off of her mind. And now, she, also, realized that the fire inside her, would keep her, running back to him, sooner or later.
And as she reached home, she didn’t even bother to use the back entrance. She jus parked the tractor, and was thinking, “Baby, you, still, are the only one for me, even though, I had the guts to walk away from you without telling, exactly, why. I am realizing that you might be the one for me. And I can’t deny this, any longer.”
So, as she walked inside the front entrance of her parents’ cabin, she jus happened to run into her mom. And now, she knew, that there’s no way, she can keep her relationship with JUSTIN, a secret, any longer.
So, then, she said to her mom, “Mom, I jus don’t’ know how I’m going to tell you, this. However, you and dad, probably, have been sensing, all along. However, it’s that a couple of months ago, I jus happened to be walking near this cabin on the other road which crosses this one. And as I was, I noticed this guy, sitting on the porch, looking very alone. So, I approached him and we both jus sat there in silence. And after that night, we started seeing each other, steadily, when neither you nor dad was anything but busy outside in the field and picking berries.”
“Why aren’t you with him, now, my gal? Did the two of you break up, suddenly, and decide to go your separate ways?”
“It’s jus that I bumped into another girl over at the cabin, his foster sister. And then, she let me know, that the two of them were more than brother and sister. Because I couldn’t handle her, saying that they’re in love, I jus walked away from him. And then, I proceeded on my way home, and that’s why I’m home, now. And I jus don’t know what to do, now, because I think, I may be falling in love with this guy,” she said with tears in her eyes.
“Let’s go over to the kitchen, and I’ll make you, some herbal tea to help clear your mind, and relax you, my gal.”
So, then, upon the two reaching the kitchen, and while the two were both having some tea. MOUNTAIN LILLIE said to her mom, “I know that we haven’t been having any good talks for awhile. However, I got to ask you, your advice. What do you think; I should do at this point. I don’t want to lose that guy being he’s such a nice guy. Even though, he’s younger than me, and a lot wiser than I have seemed to be for the last couple of months.”
“If that were me, I would plan to go back over to the cabin, at least, by the nighttime. And then, I’ll would make up with him, and tell him, you’re sorry for running away from him. Then, I would tell him, that you, still, are having feelings of affection or whatever it is for him. And then, see what he has to say to you.”
And that night, JUSTIN went out on the porch as usual, and waited for MOUNTAIN LILLIE to show up. In fact, jus before it turned dark, he happened to spot her, walking down the road. So, since, she wouldn’t come over to him, he ran over to her, and she stopped in her tracks.
Sensing that she’s as puzzled as he is, he said to her in a pleading voice, “What’s going on with you, tonight? If it happened tonight as I eyed you across the road, don’t ignore me, now. I know you have some feeling for me.”
“Jus remember one thing, my dear, if you look this way, and see tears in my eyes, baby. Jus look away, and act as if you don’t notice me because I, really, love you, dearly.”
“And I jus can’t bear to turn away from you, jus because you won’t speak to me, anymore.”
Then, MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN took each other’s hand. And the two walked over to the porch over at the cabin. As the two sat down on the porch, he said to her.
“Right now, I tried to make up to CHER BEAR before while she’s on her computer. And she was real nice to me, and she admitted to me, that she, always, has loved me as a sister and nothing more. However, I don’t know if she was telling me, the truth, because she seems to be scared of me.”
At first, MOUNTAIN LILLIE didn’t know what to say, however then, she said to him, “Do you, still, have the feeling that you have fallen in love with me. Or is it jus feelings of affection, you’re having for me?”
Jus then, CHER BEAR walked out onto the porch, and are very surprised to see the two right there on the porch. So, even though, he is there, sitting with a shocked look on his face.
She said to him, “My, my, so my conscious has been right all this time even during the time, the family was on vacation. My conscious has been trying to tell me, that the two of you are falling in love with each other. If you, re, really, in love with her, then, kiss her right in front of me.”
So, then, shocked that CHER BEAR is acting domineering to him, he then, walked up to MOUNTAIN LILLIE, and did jus that, kissed her. And right after he did, CHER BEAR, then, walked to him, and kissed him on the cheek.
That made him, feel very good, and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, now, is jealous because he kissed CHER BEAR right in front of her. However, as CHER BEAR walked away from them, and sneaked over to the camper. Neither JUSTIN nor MOUNTAIN LILLIE was aware, that she did.
However, since, MOUNTAIN LILLIE was very jealous, and wouldn’t say another word to JUSTIN, she jus left him without saying goodbye. And then, she proceeded down the road before it would start getting dark outside.
And once, she reached the cabin where her parents lived, she snuck inside the back entrance. And then, she snuck into her bedroom, and after plunking herself on her bed, many tears started coming down her face.
And then, he wouldn’t walk inside the cabin because he didn’t want to wake up CHER BEAR. However he didn’t know that she was inside the camper because of the heat of day not having left the mountains, yet. And he figured that what she didn’t know about him and MOUNTAIN LILLIE wouldn’t hurt her.
As Mountain Lillie walked down the hilly road, she couldn’t seem to get her mind off of Justin. And at this time, she, actually, doubted her love for him jus because she never knew until that day. That he and CHER BEAR have, actually, been having feelings of affection for each other jus by the way, she had given him, a kiss on the cheek.
BACKFLASH:
Even when JUSTIN, first, suspected, that he and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, probably, were falling for each other. HE, always, made her, believe he was having, only, brotherly love for CHER BEAR.
And he has been trying to deny the fact, that he and CHER BEAR were having any kind of feelings of affection between themselves. This is because he has been thinking a lot of MOUNTAIN LILLIE, ever since, that first night on which he, first, met her.
He didn’t want to admit to CHER BEAR, that he was drawn to MOUNTAIN LILLIE’S sexy personality. And this has been jus because being he has feelings of affection for MOUNTAIN LILLIE. So because of this, he has been afraid of losing CHER BEAR as a sister because he needs her sisterly love to survive in this harsh world.
Even when JUSTIN, first, suspected, that he and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, probably, were falling for each other. He was feeling guilty for having told her, he and CHER BEAR were jus like sister and brother, peas and carrots. And that the love, he has been experiencing with CHER BEAR, was nothing more than family love.
And not until today when MOUNTAIN LILLIE approached CHER BEAR about him and her.
And then, JUSTIN has, unknowingly, made life for himself, harder in having made CHER BEAR, assume that she, already, knew the bare fact. That he and MOUNTAIN LILLIE have been soul buddies, all this time.
Only then, did CHER BEAR happen to find out about JUSTIN, having kept his relationship with MOUNTAIN LILLIE, one huge secret which secret has become one dirty secret.
Before this time, CHER BEAR never knew about this fact. And that was, that he has made MOUNTAIN LILLIE believe up until today. That he and CHER BEAR have, only, been sister and brother to each other from that first day on which CHER BEAR’S parents took him into the family. And he felt, no longer, had any family to turn to for support for family love.
And for the rest of his life, JUSTIN is going to regret, he ever met CHER BEAR. And this is, especially, being he has wanted CHER BEAR’S love right from the start. This is because being for years; he has been having this passion for CHER BEAR. Even though, he has never admitted this to her, personally.
In having met MOUNTAIN LILLIE, one night, when he had been feeling lonely inside for CHER BEAR. Will he ever come to terms with CHER BEAR about his true relationship with her?
The bare truth about the whole situation is that from the start, CHER BEAR has given JUSTIN, all her ever needed jus in being a sister to him, all this time. So, what she has gone out of her way to give him is what she, always, refers to as simple family love.
Being because his relationship with CHER BEAR hasn’t been going too well, ever since, she has been spending a lot of her time, writing, JUSTIN jus happened to be feeling lonely inside for her company.
CHAPTER III
JUSTIN couldn’t stand jus sitting outside on the front porch in one of
the wooden chairs. While he’s sitting there on the front porch, he can’t seem to get his mind, geared into feeling some peace with nature like he, usually, does. And he couldn’t figure out jus why, it seemed so hard, that night, to get himself, surrounded by that usual feeling.
So, finally, he got up out of his favorite chair, and walked over to the camper jus because he has a feeling, CHER BEAR jus could be lying around inside it.
Although, he has this feeling, he could bump into her, he didn’t bother knocking on the door, but he walked right inside. And as he did, he happened to catch her, undressing to go to sleep.
Even though, he doesn’t know if he is in love with her, or if it is MOUNTAIN LILLIE, who’s his love. He walked over to CHER BEAR, approaching her from behind. However as he did, she was aware of him being inside the camper, so she jus tried to ignore his presence.
And as he jus stared at her as she’s, still, undressing. He seemed to sense, that she’s feeling very uneasy about him being around her when she’s half nude. This is, although, he’s seen her with, hardly, any clothes on, many other times.
Anyways, he jus walked up to her, and as he’s doing so, she seemed to flinch away from his grip on her waist. And then, she’s, almost, in tears as he tried to lean over jus after she laid down on one of the beds inside the camper.
So, then, she said to JUSTIN without thinking, “Do you mind, JUSTIN? Can’t you see that I’m trying to fall asleep, here? Where are your manners? You should have knocked on the door before entering. Now, please leave me, alone, as I can’t seem to be able to relax, and go to sleep with you being near me.”
“What’s the matter, tonight, my dear? Did MOUNTAIN LILLIE upset you when she let you know, that me and her have feelings for each other?”
“In a big way, she has upset me to the point. That she could destroy the relationship; we have been having with each other, all this time.”
“This thing is I couldn’t help feeling this way about her. Because after all, during the last trip here before your parents bought this cabin, every time, she came by the cabin at night. You had been either buried in writing on your computer or asleep inside the cabin.”
“So, what else is on your mind, tonight? I can sense, you are feeling very uneasy inside, right now.”
“The thing is, my darling, that at some point along the way, I jus knew this. And this was apparent to me. I jus knew, that you could sense the fact that my relationship with MOUNTAIN LILLIE has been going on behind closed doors.”
“Yes, it did kind of upset me when MOUNTAIN LILLIE revealed this to me. And this is that you two have been having feelings of affection for each other. I, always, thought, that you and I were very close to each other. And that some day in the future, we were planning on getting a ranch together.”
“What ever gave you, the idea that we were going to have a ranch together in the future? I’ve explained to you, more than once, that we were, only, to be friends. Also, I’ve told you, many times, I never wanted to get married to you because it jus never would work out between us.”
“But JUSTIN, you know and so do I, that both of us have been getting closer to each other through all these years, we’ve lived under the same roof. And I have been planning for the past year or so for us to move into an apartment or cabin at some point.”
“What encouraged you to want to move out with me into some other place like an apartment?”
“I, really, somehow, got the idea; you would change your mind. And that you would consider you and me, living together, some day.”
He jus stared into her eyes for a few moments, and then, he said to her, “I even have sat down with you, many times, and tried to get you to understand jus how much I have loved you as my own brother. And that since I have been for some time, that we could break away from my parents. And have a place of our own.”
So, then, without another word between them, JUSTIN didn’t even bother leaning over her. And giving her, a kiss, like he, usually, does when he’s aware of her, wanting to hit the sack. So, he opened up the camper door, and then, stormed out the door without saying another word.
And it’s a good thing that her parents weren’t aware of him and her being outside at the time because they would have come right outside. And then, they might have thrown JUSTIN and CHER BEAR out of the camper. And then, CHER BEAR’S parents, probably, would have forced her to get him out of her life for good, through kicking her out of the cabin. And then, her parents, probably, would have made her, find another place to live.
MOUNTAIN LILLIE, every night, and, also, early in the morning, has been meeting JUSTIN out on the front porch. And she, always, seemed to catch him out on the front porch. However, tonight was the first night on which she wasn’t able to spot JUSTIN, sitting on the front porch.
So, then, MOUNTAIN LILLIE jus had pulled up in the hilly driveway. And there, on her parents’ old red tractor, she had sat there for what seemed like hours to her when, only, an hour has passed by.
And since, she didn’t want to be caught there in the driveway by either CHER BEAR or her parents. She, then, jus pulled out of the driveway, a bit puzzled being that by this time, she, usually, ran into JUSTIN out in front of the cabin.
Then, as MOUNTAIN LILLIE was riding back to her parents’ house on the tractor, she felt like she was going to cry, right then and there. She couldn’t understand why JUSTIN wasn’t’ expecting her to show up at the cabin, tonight.
As she reached her parents’ house, she didn’t know what to tell either of them, at first, as soon as she got up off the tractor, she sneaked around. And she tried to enter the house through the back door as usual.
However, her mom jus happened to be relaxing with his dad in the living room.
So, neither of them heard the tractor, pull up in the driveway nor being parked at the side of the driveway like usual. This was because MOUNTAIN LILLIE started parking the tractor up the hill near her sister’s house.
Her sister, SARAH, lived in a house all her own because their parents knew, she has a boyfriend who she has been going steady with. And she’s planning to marry this guy who, only, MOUNTAIN LILLIE’S and SARAH’S parents have met so far.
Every time, SARAH’S boyfriend shows up at the blue house which she has been living in, ever since, he, usually, jus comes right to that house instead of going to the main family house.
This is because when the two, first, started going together, that her parents, automatically, gave SARAH, the other house up the mountain for herself. This was because at this stage of the game, her parents felt it was important, that the two get to know each other very well. Also, SARAH could afford paying rent for living in this house.
The next morning, MOUNTAIN LILLIE jus sneaked out of her parents’ house right before either of them were awake. So, then, after hopping onto the tractor, she, then, quickly, moved on the tractor until she came to the cabin where JUSTIN was living.
Upon pulling the tractor into the driveway, she then, got off the tractor. And then, she walked over to the porch, expecting JUSTIN to be inside the cabin with CHER BEAR. This was because the last time, she went to the cabin; he wasn’t out on the porch as usual, waiting for her for their morning walk.
However, jus as she walked onto the front porch, she’s very surprised to see both him and his sister, CHER BEAR, out there. However, anyways she walked up to JUSTIN, not even knowing how she got the guts to walk up to him when his sister was with him on the front porch.
However, upon approaching him, he has stars in his eyes. And he looks glad to see her, almost, having tears in his eyes upon seeing her, since; the two haven’t seen each other in a little while.
But CHER BEAR has a glaring look in her eyes, and at that, she jus sat there. However, upon MOUNTAIN LILLIE jus staring into JUSTIN’S eyes for a few minutes, then, CHER BEAR couldn’t stand MOUNTAIN LILLIE acting like she was.
So, then, CHER BEAR jus walked into the cabin, and wouldn’t say another word to JUSTIN.
So, jus then, he and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, in knowing that his foster parents weren’t even home, the two, then, sneaked behind the shed.
And as they did, he said to her, “Well, my darling MOUNTAIN LILLIE, are you, really, falling in love with me,” as the two lay down on the grass back there.
“I can say that by the way, I’ve been feeling so lonesome, ever since, you wouldn’t even call me because we haven’t been seeing each other. I, definitely, must be falling in love with you, my dear.”
“Well, then, would you like me to make love to you, my dear?”
“Boy, that is some invitation, since, we, actually, haven’t yet made love. However, I’ll take you up on that invitation.”
So, then, without another word to each other, she took the first move. And she jus lay there on the grass beside him, feeling his chest. He didn’t even have a shirt on at the time being that it has been an extra hot day. So then, as she was busy feeling him all over his chest.
So, he then, started feeling her breasts. And as he was, he could feel how they were swelling up. And this meant that she was hot for him.
The two went on feeling each other all over, and as they were, she could feel all that fire, building up inside of her, and so could he.
As they were busy with each other, he forgot all about the love, he had for CHER BEAR. And now was realizing that MOUNTAIN LILLIE, really, was one who he, really, has been falling in love with.
Then, JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE were making love when, suddenly, the side cabin door opened, and who should walk outside were his foster parents.
And at this time, he and she were jus finishing up, making love.
So then, the two jus ran from behind the shed and to the other side of the cabin.
However, somehow, his foster parents caught up with them.
So, his foster dad said to him, quite surprised, “Well, my boy, so this is who I’ve suspected all this time, that you have been having an affair with.”
“But dad, I haven’t been having any affair with her. I’m not even married, so that’s why it couldn’t be what you think it has been. And you never have met her before, have you?”
“Oh yes, I have met her before, however she never told me, she was seeing you behind closed doors. And the way she told me about you, was that the two of you jus were friends, back when the family was on vacation at this cabin.”
“Well, that is true, dad, we were have been jus friends up until lately.”
“And what may I say, you mean by this?”
Since, he was lost for any more words, his girl, MOUNTAIN LILLIE spoke for him and her, “Well, the two of us have been going steady for about a couple of months. However, I am not sure, if we will be getting married because we jus haven’t known each other, long enough, to know if we love each other enough to get hitched, in the first place.”
Then, his dad said, “Well, I think that the two are in good love from what I have been hearing from CHER BEAR. And it’s good that she has sisterly love for you, however I don’t know how she would take it if the two of you got married in the future. All that sisterly love, she has been having for you jus might affect her, badly, if you, my boy, don’t keep living at the cabin. She needs your love, and I know you need her love, too. That’s what I refer to as family love, a deep family love that should never be thrown away.”
“Don’t worry dad, as far as we know, we have no plans for getting married. However, I can’t figure out, the reason why CHER BEAR has been getting real mad at me, every time, she has caught me with MOUNTAIN LILLIE.”
“That’s because she has deep sisterly love for you, my boy. And she doesn’t want anything, not even you, having a girlfriend, to interfere with it.”
So then, MOUNTAIN LILLIE responded, “I’ll be careful and I’ll never let anything interfere with the family love, the two have for each other. If I ever have the feeling that my relationship with him, is going to interfere with that kind of love. Then, I’ll jus go my own way, and try to forget, I ever loved him.”
So, then, his dad said to both of them, “then, I suggest that you two stop seeing each other, right away, before either of you get to close to each other. And that he regrets ever having fallen in love with you. Don’t worry about the situation between CHER BEAR and JUSTIN, or your relationship with him. If you two break up, right away, that will protect the family love which CHER BEAR has for him.”
However, after his dad walked inside the cabin, JUSTIN’S girl, MOUNTAIN LILLIE, left for the night.
And these feeling of affection started to dominate their lives. So, every night after dusk, she would get on her tractor and ride over to the cabin.
And upon arriving there, the two, her and JUSTIN would jus make sure, CHER BEAR wasn’t inside the camper like he caught her, that one night. So, then, being the camper door wasn’t locked; first, he entered the camper. And since, CHER BEAR wasn’t there inside, he then, gave MOUNTAIN LILLIE, the go ahead.
And then, she hopped into the camper as he locked the door behind them.
And he was hoping that CHER BEAR wouldn’t attempt to open the camper door because if she did and it was locked. Then, being she would know that JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE were up to something inside the camper.
However, the two jus laid on the bed after JUSTIN opened it up as the table folded up, and then, went underneath the bed. After lying down on the bed, then, because the air conditioning was on, he then, pulled a sheet on top of both of them, so, neither of them would get chilled.
JUSTIN has the feeling inside him that CHER BEAR is buried in her writing, and won’t try to bother them.
Then, quickly, without much foreplay, except for touching each other for a few minutes, JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE got into making love. And while they were making love, the two felt such passion inside them like they never felt it before. So, then, they both felt love as sweet as nectar, that night.
And right after they were done making love, they didn’t want either his foster parents or CHER BEAR finding them, together.
So, then, MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN bid each other, goodbye.
Then, quickly, she got onto her tractor, and headed back towards her parents’ house. And as usual, upon getting there, she sneaked through the back door, and quickly, went to her bedroom where she fell asleep, right away, with all her clothes still on.
However, somehow, CHER BEAR sensed that they were up to something, that night, inside the camper jus because she had walked up to the camper, and had found the door, locked.
So, she told her parents what she sensed about MOUNTAIN LILLIE and JUSTIN.
“Mom and dad, I have something to tell you two about JUSTIN and that girl of his who I have been able to sense, he has been seeing.”
Then, she replied, “Why do think that your feelings about JUSTIN, bare witness to this girl? Have you had a dream, lately, that has seemed like a premonition to him, having been seeing this girl? Have you, by chance, been able to hear him, talking with a girl, outside, the cabin?”
“No, mom, I haven’t had a so-called premonition about JUSTIN. It’s jus that last night, I had a dream of bumping into a girl of his. And I think that this, really, is going to happen.”
“Well, my darling daughter, CHER BEAR that, certainly, is what is called a premonition. So, do you remember anything else about this dream, you had?”
“Well, yes and no. I don’t know if this is what I have been having on my mind, or if was a part of my dream. I, also, remember having sensed, lately, especially, last night, that JUSTIN and some girl, that lives in the mountains, having been going together for awhile.”
“Those thoughts, you have had in your mind, surely, bear witness to the fact. That JUSTIN could be having a girl in his life, right here, in North Carolina jus because he hasn’t been spending any time with you like he used to before the whole family came here for a vacation to get away from it all.”
And as soon as he walked inside the cabin after she had left, then, her mother confronted JUSTIN, this time, about the situation.
And as she said to him while he’s out on the front porch, “How come CHER BEAR has the feeling, tonight, that you and your girl were up to something?”
He responded to her with silence, and then, he said to her, “What I and she have been doing is none of your business. And yes, the two of us have been falling in love. However, I don’t think it’s necessary, that I let you know what we have planned for our future.”
So, then, she’s about to give him, a spanking. However, in sensing this, he, quickly, ran out the door, and into the camper. And then, he stayed there for the rest of the evening, and in the morning, he called his girl.
So, jus after going inside the camper, he made a phone call to MOUNTAIN LILLIE, and he said to her, feeling overanxious over what he should about the relationship, he’s been having with her.
“I think it’s time, we take some action. Because after all, my mom has been sensing, that we are in love. So, we have to do something about it before either of my foster parents try to break us up, again. So, quickly, get on your tractor, and come over and get me. By that time, I’ll have enough things packed that we can run away.”
“Why do you want to do such a thing as running away? Why don’t we jus do the sensible thing, and jus break up for now. I mean jus make it look like we have broken up. And then, jus say you’re going for a ride, and meet me at my parents’ cabin while they’re out in the fields.”
He didn’t know how to respond to this, so, then, she jus came over, the next morning, bright and early.
And upon arriving over at the cabin, the two left for the next city, and there, the two happened to find a ranch through a friend of hers.
And between the two of them they could pay for the ranch, monthly, however the owner of the ranch let them know, that they were the sole heirs of the ranch. That he could make papers up to make them sole heirs of that ranch.
Also, one of the owners of the ranch, Fred, hired some hands to get the rest of their stuff, his on the porch, and hers on her parents’ front porch while they were, still, in the fields, working.
As soon as the rest of their stuff arrived back at the ranch, then, the owner of the ranch, the one who made them, sole heirs of the ranch.
Then, he hired someone to marry JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE right in front of the ranch. And all of the ranch hands and former owners of the ranch, especially, the one who gave them, that ranch, attended the wedding.
After both JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE said, “I do,” to each other, then, one of the former owners handed some rings over to whoever married them. And after they put the rings on each other’s fingers, then, the two were allowed to kiss each other.
And now, the two were feeling like they had a new life. And then, the two spent their honeymoon, right there, at the ranch, living in luxury.
ENDING:
Only a month after JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE eloped and got married, one day, CHER BEAR and her parents appeared at the front door of the ranch house. And upon one of the owners answering the door, CHER BEAR and her parents demanded where JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE were.
Since, the male owner wouldn’t reveal where they were at, then,
CHER BEAR along with her parents did something very unexpectedly
Right out in front of the ranch house.
Right there, they all knew, that the owners and also, JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE were busy doing something in back of the ranch.
However, neither CHER BEAR nor her parents were even aware, that JUSTIN along with the ranch owners, could hear, very clearly, everything which was going on.
Since, CHER BEAR along with her parents were all feeling very distraught at having lost JUSTIN as CHER BEAR’S brother, who she has been very close to for a long time. They all pulled something, very unexpectedly, right in front of the ranch.
CHER BEAR, first, pulled a 45 pistol out of her shirt pocket being she’s feeling so distraught over losing JUSTIN as a brother. She, without any warning, put her gun to her head, and shot herself to death.
In jus seeing that they jus lost a daughter in their lives besides JUSTIN as a foster son, both of her parents knelt down on the ground right in front of CHER BEAR.
Upon checking that no one was in sight, not even in back of the ranch, both of her parents, without any warning, both drew a pistol out of their pockets. Then, both of them took a pistol to their heads, and shot themselves to death.
Upon having overheard all the shots being fired from guns in front of the ranch, both ranch owners came running, so fast, they by the time, they arrived in front of the ranch, they, literally, were fighting for their breath. And none of them could believe their eyes what they all saw.
JUSTIN as the first one to say something, so with many tears in his eyes, he said to the owners, “I can believe what has jus happened, here. I, really, don’t know what either of my foster parents or CHER BEAR, for that matter, were thinking. However, I’ve jus walked up to all of them, and have witnessed them all, lying, here, on the ground. And they all seem to be stone dead; they all are lying very still on the ground.”
So, then, Fred, one of the ranch owners, said to JUSTIN, “There’s nothing you can do, anymore. You never should have run away, and gotten married with such haste like you and MOUNTAIN LILLIE have done.”
So, JUSTIN along with both of the ranch owners, dragged his foster parents along with CHER BEAR over to the side of the ranch. And then, they all got busy, and buried all the bodies in the ground.
And jus after that, they all were about to go onto their knees. And they all, then, had a little ritual for JUSTIN’S family.
One of the owners ran into the ranch house, and came out with some whiskey and a shot glass. Then, he handed the other owner along with JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, a shot of whiskey.
Then, all of them drank the whiskey down with one gulp, and afterwards JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE were lost for tears being they’re so relaxed from the whiskey.
Then, both JUSTIN and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, actually, threw themselves over CHER BEAR, and then, he grabbed one of the pistols from the ground while MOUNTAIN LILLIE watched him in desperation. And then, to the ranch owners and MOUNTAIN LILLIE, he placed them all in a state of shock as took a pistol to his head and shot himself dead.
None of the ranch owners and MOUNTAIN LILLIE couldn’t stand what JUSTIN jus did to himself.
So, they all, suddenly, had heart attacks jus after MOUNTAIN LILLIE took it upon herself to bury JUSTIN right next to his foster family.
