Leather and Lace

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn grins "I love being in your arms."

Keri snuggles into Juli's arms and holds Jen close as she drifts off to sleep.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie grins. "I love having you in my arms."

Juli sleeps peacefully holding onto Keri.

Jen whimpers a bit in her sleep.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles up at Kallie and pulls her down so she can kiss her.

Keri wakes up and rocks Jen a bit "Shhhh sweetie"

 

[JenJ]

Kallie kisses Katie back softly.

Juli sleeps through this.

Jen settles as she is rocked.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn kisses Kallie tenderly.

Keri drifts back off to sleep once Jen settles back down.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie kisses Katie back. "Let's go shop."

Juli sleeps peacefully.

Jen sleeps peacefully in Keri's arms.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles and nods then puts on the dress and looks around for a moment, realizing she doesn't know where her boots are "Ummm... shoes?"

Keri sleeps peacefully for the moment.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie ponders. "There should be sandals in the closet."

Juli and Jen sleep peacefully.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn finds some sandals and puts them on "ready when you are."

Keri remains asleep.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie smiles. "Let's go then."

Juli and Jen continue to slumber.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles "But Kallie, your naked" she says witha giggle.

Keri opens her eyes for a moment and looks around then closes them back and yawns.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie looks down at herself. "Oops." She gets a dress and slips it on as well as sandals.

Juli and Jen sleep still.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn giggles then takes Kallie's hand "I need help picking out clothes. I really didn't have any clothes while I was with Krystall and what I had prior to that got left behind in my haste"

Keri wriggles out from underneath Juli and grabs the iv tree and puts on a robe that is hanging on the door. She walks down the stairs and out onto the deck, watching the waves.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie smiles at Katie. "I can help you don't worry."

Juli stried a bit and wound up with Jen in her arms.

Jen just snuggled into the arms around her.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles and runs her fingers through her hair to smooth it down "Thank you Kallie"

Keri takes the iv tree and walks down off the balcony and along the beach near the edge of the water. She takes in the site of the rising sun and the sensation of the water washing over her toes when the waves roll in.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie smiled at Katie. "Let's go shoping."

Juli sleeps quiet still.

Jen starts to whimper in her sleep again.

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles "Yes, that will be great. Good thing the stores open early today" she says with giggle.

Keri sighs as she wades out a bit further, struggling with her IV tree as she does so but she just needs to get away for awhile. She's slowly losing her grip on reality.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie takes Katie's hand and leads her outside to the car.

Jen whimpers more then she sits upright rather fast she shakes Juli. "Keri's in trouble."

Juli blinked at Jen. "Where is she?"

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles as she is led to the car. She watches Kallie as she unlocks the doors then climbs in, so very happy at this moment in her life.

Keri walks out till the water is waist deep then turns and traverses the coastline back towards the house, dragging her iv tree through the water precariously. She sighs softly, enjoying the burning sensation of the salt water in her wounds and knowing that it is cleansing them.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie drives to the mall. "So what stores do you like?"

Juli looks at Jen. "Let's go find her."

Jen gets up and runs down the stairs looking for Keri. "Keri."

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn thinks a moment "Well, when I had enough money I would shop at Express, Gap, and Banana Republic. But most of the time I ended up buying all my clothes at Walmart or Goodwill"

Keri walks along the shoreline in the waist deep water as she tries to sort out her thoughts. She cringes as she sees an image of herself crumpled next to the bathtub being whipped with a single tail. Tears start to stream down her face but she doesn't care. She pushes herself through the cold water just needing to be grounded.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie listens. "Then we shall hit Express, Gap, and Banana Repubulic"

Juli goes dashing outside and to the beach. "She's in the water."

Jen rushes outside and to the water. "KERI get back here."

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn nods "Are you sure?"

Keri is oblivious to everything as she wades down the shoreline. She sighs as she thinks to herself, knowing that if she stayed in the house she would have harmed herself. She just can't pull it together. She bites down on her lip as the image her being single tailed comes. She can see herself pressed against the wall and writhing in pain as the single tail is brought over her flesh. She is totally absorbed in this memory, one of many that she has yet to process, but perhaps that is why Jen is alive. To help Keri fight her battle, for she below her tough exterior is hurting badly and she will speak to no one of such pain.

 

[JenJ]

Kallie smiles at Katie. "Yes I'm sure."

Juli stands at the edge of the water unable to move.

Jen starts in the water after Keri. "KERI ANN you get yourself up on the shore this instant no pain is worth hurting yourself."

 

[DustyWolfe]

Katelyn smiles "I will be bringing in some money soom to pay my way."

Keri doesn't hear those words. She cringes and flinches as she sees stroke after stroke of a single tail being laid into her. Opening up her flesh along her spine and leaving bad welts in other places. She stops walking and just stands still, almost in a trance as she watches the memory play in her head. She screams "Nooooo, no more"
