Caitlynn needs a Room

Walking through the doors I talk to the Hotel Manager and say I need a room for a while. I quickly take my horse to the stables and my dog and cats follow me to my new hotel room.

*As John* I walk through the lobby, too tired to notice anything going on. I grab some ice and then drudge back to my room.

Catching you at the corner of my eye, "Hey, John" I called.

"Huh?" I grunt. "Oh, hi, Caitlynn..." I say sleepily. "What're you doing here?"

"Well, since I couldn't get a place right away, I am staying here for a while." Noticing how tired you look I add, "And I was just about to go put my horse over some jumps, so I better unpack and head for the stables."

'Yah... Okay. Have... fun." I mumble. "Ha ha, perhaps I'll see you around!" I say, even though there wasn't anything funny about it. "Sorry, I'm just tired."

I smile, "I will leave you to rest then." I head back to my room to unpack.

After waking up a bit more, I finally realize that your are actually here. I rush down to the lobby. "What room is Caitlynn staying in?" I ask the manager.
"I'm sorry, but I cannot give out room numbers without permission."
"Fine!" I grump. I write a quick note on some hotel paper. It reads 'Caitlynn, Come to my room when you get this!". I give it to the manager. "Give her this note." He nods. Then I go back to my room to clean up.

Coming back from the stables the manager calls to me and gives me the note. I nod and head to your room and knock on your door.

I hear you knock. I finish cleaning and slip on a clean silk shirt. I open the door and smile. "Caitlynn! I was just wondering what room you were in. Do you want to come in, or are you busy?"

"No, I'm not busy at all." I smile.

I give you a goofy smile and gesture inside. "Mary got a room with someone else, and my uncle's looking for some stuff at the mall. He probably won't be back for a long time." I flip on the TV to some boring news station so the room isn't totally silent. "So, how are you? Anything new happen?"

Smiling, I come in, "I'm having a good day and I did get 2 new cats. Anything new with you?"

"Whoa, two new cats? That is so cool! And, actually, yah, I have got some cool news. I got a letter from my mother, and she's just won this big old lottery or something, so she won't need any money any more." You look confused, so I explain. "My mom is agoraphobic, so she can't go out and get a job, so I was sending her checks. Now she can provide for herself. It makes me so happy." I smiled warmly. "And I am almost definitely sure Mittens is pregnant, which is cool, because she would have cute kittens." I realize I have talked too much, so I shut up.

"That's great! My cats are siblings and Pheonix seems very joyful already." I smile sweetly. "You are a really nice person."

I blush at your compliment. "Thank you. I think you're very nice too." I sit down on the edge of the bed, smiling.

I sit beside you and smile, "Whats your Uncle like?"

"Very quiet. That's really all there is about him." I say sheepishly.

"My dad is pretty quiet, until you get to know him then he is a talking machine."

"Yah... well, my uncle never talks... like ever. Even if you get to know him, nothing!" I say.

"Wow... so is it crowded in here with everyone?" I ask questionly.

"Nah!" I said. "Uncle is never here, and Mary left." I finished. I look into your eyes. "Actually, it feels lonely really quick."

Looking back sadly,"Well, all the company I have is animals. I have lived alone for quite a while."

"That's sad." I say. I smile wanly, unsure as to how to comfort you.

Blinking my eyes, bringing back the spark, "But after a while you get use to it."
