Chapter 6
Matt handed Sady a flashlight, and they started down the dirt road. "Harry gave me the location of the area he wants us to search," he said as they walked. After a short distance they left the road and walked through a field.
"This isn't the skunk field, is it?" Sady asked.
"No, I'm pretty sure he's moved on," he assured her. She stumbled on a root and he took her arm. "You aren't going to sprain your ankle out here, are you?"
"Well, now if I go down, I'll have a softer landing," she teased. "The question you should ask is will you sprain your ankle? Because I don't think I can carry you."
"So you're saying we'd just have to lay there until help arrives?" he asked. "Give me a minute to find something to trip over. That might even be fun."
Sady hugged his arm. "Matt, did you really take your cousin to the prom?"
He sighed. "I knew confessing it was a bad idea. Yes, Sandy-Sue, I did. Not by choice. My mother felt sorry for her because no one else would take her. Come to think of it, my mother is always trying to fix me up with ugly women. I have an envelope full of pictures of ugly women my mother thought I should meet."
"You never talk about your family," Sady said. "Tell me about them."
"I have a mother with nothing better to do than try to fix me up with someone she found at the kennel, and a father who tries to stay out of her way. I guess my mother thinks ugly grandkids are better than none," he told her.
"Shame on you!" Sady scolded. "They can't all be ugly."
"You want to bet? I have picture proof. I think it's my mother's way of trying to balance out the universe," he shuddered.
"What about Emily? She's not ugly."
"Emily told my mother she doesn't have children in her future," Matt laughed. "It's a good thing too. Although at least the kids wouldn't be ugly." Sady punched his arm. "Just teasing, Sassafras. Marrying Emily would be worse than..." Sady's grip on his arm tightened, and he continued, "Dating Amanda?" She pinched it again, and he said, "Marrying Amanda!" Her grip loosened.
"And you missed out on that chance. Go figure! I'm still in shock. I wonder if Amanda really got married?" Sady pondered.
"And I wonder if her husband will ever show up. I hope I'm around if he does," Matt said. He held out his arm and stopped her progress with a "Shh!"
"What is it?" Sady whispered loudly, and he shook his head with a laugh.
"You have chocolate at the corner of your mouth," he said. He looked closer with the flashlight. "And some marshmallow," he teased. "We'd better clean you up." Sady forgot all about chocolate, marshmallows, and Amanda when he feathered his lips across hers. "It definitely needs more work," he told her and proceeded to work on her lips.
A few minutes later he nuzzled her neck. "Just checking for anything I missed.
