dinners, the theatre, frolicked in the snow. I had fun. What did you do?” “I went to a barn dance, saw Lizzie and we had a less than pleasant confrontation. She has a new beau now you now. I feel so sorry for that poor sap.” “Yeah, I know she will make his life a living nightmare. Well, good for him.” “So, did you meet anyone, in New York, that can help us escape up North?” “My friends, gave me a contact, one of those abolitionists, a Quaker I think. I am supposed to ride to Silver Creek in two days, that arrangements can be made. God, Julian, we may be out of here within a week’s time. I am so happy!” He lifted her high in the air and spun her around. “Christine that is the best news I have heard in a long while.
I will be praying, that we will safely, make it out of here. Do you know, where we will be taken?” “Maybe New York or Connecticut. I have money saved. We will both have to get jobs. I won’t worry about that until then.” “I am not gonna miss this hell hole. I wonder what freedom will be like?” “It’s wonderful. I want you to spend tonight in my room. I can sneak you in, as poppa being that today is Friday, will visit one of his mistresses and momma will dull the pain, by getting drunk.” “I am not sure, I don’t want
us to get caught before we can be free together.” “Julian, I need tonight to be special for
both of us. I have got a fireplace, poppa has put new carpeting in. I haven’t seen you for so long, please humour me.” Julian sounded offended when he spoke. “Hey, my cabin is just as nice. I know, it can a bit damp and cold sometimes, but it’s still wonderful.” “Sweetheart, your cabin is unusually, nice for a slave, but I want you to be here with me okay.” She looked into his eyes and smiled sweetly. Julian was weakened by her smile and said, “I can see it is no use to argue, I just don’t want us to get caught. I love you and want to be with you, alive.” She gave him a quick kiss, before Felicia called out asking why they were both taking so much time.
Their night together was as wonderful as they expected. The meal was excellent, Christine bribed Bessie into cooking a wonderful meal for her and Julian. Bessie is the only living soul on earth, who knew of Julian’s and Christine’s affair. She was Christine’s nanny, and would never breathe a word to another soul. The evening ended on an erotic note, Christine and Julian made sweet passionate love and fell asleep in each other’s arms.
It was about 3:30 AM, when Julian awoke to Christine shaking him in panic. “Julian, its 6 am, we overslept, and you have to go now!” “Christine, darling look at the clock on the wall it is only 3:30 AM, look it is still dark out. Relax okay.” “Are you sure, I mean it feels like we have been asleep for hours.” “Hmm, I love you, so much right now, panicky and all. We should remain awake, until I am ready to leave. Let’s cuddle and talk okay
sweetheart.” Christine, breathed a heavy sigh of relief, God I was so sure we were gonna get caught. I don’t know what I would have done. “God, Julian, I felt a hole in the pit of my stomach, I was sure it was six in the morning. Thank you for calming me. How did you sleep?” “I slept, fine, but then I have a beautiful and alluring woman, beside me. Your warmth and presence aided my sleep.” She laughed and snuggled to him a bit closer. “You are an aid to me getting my beauty sleep too my darling. Let me ask you something. Did God, say to your momma, Heedi I am gonna make your boy, extremely handsome and sexy? You are the most appealing and irresistible man I have ever met. Plus, you are so intelligent. Makes me horny and proud, each time I see you with a
book.” “Yeah, I heard mama used to brag, when I was born, that I was the sweetest baby, alive! I know, you find me irresistible when I have a book. Why do you think, I am always reading when you are in my cabin?” “That’s why
