"what the hell am I doing in California" he said.
"I should be torturing Katy back home in West Virginia."
"Except I'm here because of her anyway!"
He grunted at the stupidity of the situation and shrugged out of his sweat soaked t-shirt.
Three passers by started gawking at him like they've never seen an alien take off his shirt before!
They all smile like idiot, that can't believe their luck, probably thinking He noticed ME!
He turned his back on them and rolled his eyes.
I hate this place, too crowded. he thought. Although Kat would look hot in this heat!
"Snap out of it dickhead!" Dee shouted at him. "We're not here to flirt with the public!"
Daemon scowled at his younger sister....although it was hard to keep the smile off his face, especially since she sounded like Kat there. Dickhead. He couldn't help it, he burst into a round of laughter.
"We're here because, we need to find Kat..."she reminded him. "Of course we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the crap you threw at her!"
"I did no such thing....she's just...you know...KAT!" Like that explained everything...truth is I did act like a dick, and I plan on apologizing, that is if we ever find her. He sighed. "Fine, any ideas where to start looking?"
"Well, this was her home town, not sure why the beach seemed like the best idea."
"We could check out those big rock structures over there where the cliff is? Seems like there might be some sort of entrance there to a cave."
"Daemon! Shut up! This isn't my fault, so stop giving me shit with your sarcasm!" she blew at her front hairs in agitation.
"Dee seriously..this is stupid...what the hell would Kat be doing at a stupid beach anyway?"
"Give me a hand out here! What have I been telling you, if have an idea. Say so!!!"
"You know, Dee, I'm starting to wonder where all this attitude is coming from." Daemon said. "You're not the little butt I once knew."
"Yeah...well, to deal with you everyone should get lessons from Kat at least once in their lives!"
She gave him the I-know-you-ate-my-icecream-look.
His thoughts turned back to Katy and he dug his cell out of his pocket and tried calling her once more.
The answer message came on "Daemon I know that's you, and no I haven't forgiven you! So, get lost dickhead!!" Oh! She's angry...
"How many more times are you going to do that?" Dee asked.
"Until I get Katy where I want her," he says raising a brow.
He flashed Dee a mischievous smile and said, "It's best you don't know, sis."
"I think I'm going to throw up!! and you don't want hear about my virginity issues?"
Daemon grimaced. "The only thing I want to hear is that it stays that way."
"Whatever. So, where to next."
Deamon shrugged. "Did she mention any old friends to you or anything?"
"Just her father, which you should know by now! How 'bout anything on her blog?"
"Oh, her dad...right." Daemon couldn't think about Katy's father when he couldn't keep the dirty thoughts of her from his mind.
"Daemon? Dude, I'm checking the mall, then the casinos..."
"I'll check the strip clubs" He grinned
"Gosh!!! You are such an ass!"
"Ass. Yep, that's what I'm hopin' to see."
"You're hopeless, why on earth would she go there!"
"If she misses me, she might go there thinking that's where I'll be." He gives her a look like DUH.
"Okay, that's another BAD impression to add to your already long list." she scolded him. "She's never coming back that way!!!!"
With that Dee left him alone with his thoughts. He had no intention of actually going to the strip clubs but he had a pretty good idea where he would find Kat. With that thought Daemon started towards the graveyard where Kat's father was buried.
He found her there, but the emotions etched on her face made her look....different. It reminded him of Dawson, if he had a grave that's where he would be....
He didn't want to interrupt her, so stood there and watched.
He didn't want to interrupt her, so stood there and watched.
Katy turned slowly and caught me staring "what are you doing here Daemon?" she asked me with tears in her eyes.
"Kat....." I didn't know how to continue, so I just stood there waiting for her to say something and take away the awkward silence.
I didn't say anything for a while just stood there and read the words on the stone and listen to her sobs. I didn't want to interrupt but I kind of already have, so I knelt on the ground and pulled her onto my lap.
She tensed at first, then relaxed and buried her face in my neck. I let her cry it out all the while never letting her go.
Her sniffles and shudders racked her body. I wanted so bad to take the pain away.
Daemon lay on his back, his shirt glued to his chest in the sweltering summer heat.
