Matched

**Sorry I won't be on much until the evnings. I got a job :/ hehe**

Katy looked at Eric. "I couldn't hurt him like that." she shook her head.

"So you still want to?" he asked. "You just don't want to hurt him. It's understandable."

"I really care about him, Eric. I do and him and I we just. He's been there you know?" she asked, downing another drink on a roll like this she was going to become an alcoholic.

"I've been there." he said.

"I know but... it's difficult to explain." she said. "I like him and I care about him."

"What about me?" he asked.

She felt hurt but didn't let it cross over her face. "I use to love you."

"I still love you." Eric put his hand on the back of her neck and gently massaged.

***SWEET!!! Don't worry during the summers, you'll do good to get one post a day out o me.***

Eric felt her relax a little under his touch. "Come on, he'll live, I mean your dadd had to get him drunk to marry you. He can't really love you."



*ugh*

**lol good to know**

Katy looked at him. "Maybe your right."

"I know I'm right. I've been waiting for you to see it like I have." Eric said.

***Just letting you know, I work all day, well I think I'm gonna be. ***

Eric smiled inside, he was getting in.

"I'm not sure, I mean he seems to have changed a little sense Amanda was born." She said softly.

"Towards her, just because it's his daughter, that doesn' tmean he loves you."

"You can't honestly believe that. Sure he'll love you because your the mother of his daughter." Eric said.

"I don't mind if he just likes me." Katy shrugged. They were so close to each other, her thigh was touching his.

"You deserve for someone to love you, Katy... I.... Damnit!" Eric pulled Katy behind her neck and kissed her.

Katy's eyes widend at one point then closed, she relaxed, she'd had enough to drive should probably couldn't stand.

***I meant for him to say that last part, oh well. ***

Eric felt like he was floating on a cloud as she melded against him. His heart fluttered, she still loved her! When they pulled apart he looked down at her his eyes searching hers.


*~*~*~*~*

Tyrel rocked Amanda back and forth as he watched the tv. He couldn't sleep, and obviously Amanda couldn't either. Something in his gut twisted and he took a deep breath. Where was she? Where was Katy.

**oops, sorry**

Katy didn't know what to think, what to do? When they pulled away, she felt his eyes trying to find out what just happened, she looked at the ground. Then back up shaking her head.

"You felt it too, huh?" he asked, kind of smirking.

"You... Me... This... We can't happen." She barely whispered.

Eric had taken her wrist. "Of course we can. We can happen Katy all you have to do is say the word and I can make it happen."

Katy got up, trying hard to just stand up without stumbling. She was going to get the hell out of here, now.

Eric caught her as she stumbled. "Katy, why can't you just give us a try, I care for you."


*ugh*

Katy looked at him then looked at the ring on her finger. "Because... Because I care about him too." she shrugged. "I have so much more with him and he doesn't deserve that not from me." she said. "I'm sorry." she said and pulled away. Katy ran to the room without stopping, crying her eyes out.

Tyrel jumped a little when he heard Katy barge in. He hadn't realiezed he'd fallen asleep. He stood up careful not to wake up Amanda. He looked at her tear stricken face and was quickly at her side.

"You ok, did something happen?" He asked softly.

Katy took one look at his face and sobbed even harder.

"I'm so sorry." She back up so fast she fell on her ass.

"Sorry? For what?" he asked, he bent down on his knees to watch her.

"I..." her heart was beating so fast she felt her ears throbbing. "Please don't be mad... I... I kissed him." she admitted.

Tyrel swallowed hard and shifted Amanda in his arms. "W-what happened?" He asked trying to keep anger and hurt from his voice. He didn't have to ask who, he had a real good feeling who and he felt like going and punching Eric's lights out.

Amanda started to cry and he bounced her on his knee, Katy wasn't saying anything.

"Katy?" He looked her in the eyes, he wanted to know how it happened. Cause if Eric came on to her he was going to have to talk to him.

Katy couldn't answer him she looked down. Closed her eyes and felt hot tears pour from behind her lids. "I can't..."

She felt him still staring at her.

"Katy." he said, it was more like a whisper. "Katy tell me, did he kiss you... Or did you kiss him?" he asked.

"I can't! I can't." she shook her head like a little kid.

"Damnit!" he whispered and started unlocking the door.

"No!" she shouted, "don't you dare go out there and hurt him!" And just because she wasn't thinking straight. "I... I kissed him." she lied, but the lie went both ways, she could prevent Tyrel from getting arrested if she lied and told him that she kissed Eric and that Eric didn't kiss her, but she also hurt Tyrel even more.

***You do know if Eric is off the clock then Tyrel can't get in trouble for hitting a cop, only hitting Eric as a normal person***

Tyrel felt like he'd been hit in the gut. He took a deep breath and turned back around. "I'm going to bed." he said picking Amanda back up and then walked to their room laying Amanda down and then he laid on the bed and closed his eyes taking a deep breath.

**Yes, yes I know that but even if Tyrel does hit Eric it could still be counted as assault.**

Katy fell asleep on the carpet, knowing the truth and she couldn't image how Tyrel felt, and she was going to regret the lie she told in the morning.

**I need coffee, I'm blocked**
