I decided to drive up to the general store and purchase a couple of bottles of wine and some flowers so I wouldn't show up empty handed. There was an ...xcellent selection of wines and I selected two wines I recognized and a large bunch of flowers. As I stood in line, I heard a voice behind me, "Hello Sid. A bit early aren't you?"I turned and there stood Heather with a shopping basket of food. I laughed, "Well considering that evenings and especially Friday afternoons the ferries tend to get. "So should you." Ina walked into the room with Gillian right behind her."What the good Mistress here has been telling me, you were able to healSir Miles." Did you really, Aislin?" Macha sat up, but still not letting go of herfriend's hand.Aislin sighed. "I did but it's a little more complicated than a simplehealing." Taking a deep breath, she started to bring them up to date.The Wise Woman and her apprentice stared at one another in shock. WhatAislin just explained didn't seem possible."How did. . is that the sssort of thing ... Pinna and Gallea want to sssssee?”They both nodded with wide eyes and big, bright smiles.“Ok! Ok,” she said. “I’m uh ... I think ... I may be a bit drunk, but...”She started to sway. The trick was, without feet, her grounding point was actually quite solid and bendy. If she wanted to lean deep to the left or right, she could and not fall over. If she wanted to roll her belly up and down, it was easy cause her whole spine was in her control. And when she wanted. We both smiled at one another and, turning simultaneously, moved into each other's arms and leaned into a kiss. It was a gentle kiss, but at the same time passionate, as befitting two lovers."I was thinking of you all night," said Emily as our mouths parted."I was thinking of you too," I reply."We've got the whole house to ourselves for awhile," Emily smiled again. "Have anything in mind to do?" I could think of a few things," I reply with a smile. With that, our mouths meet again and Emily.
