----------------------------------


Katherine woke up to laughter. It took her a moment for her brain to catch up to the sounds coming from the kitchen downstairs. It was Robin’s laughter and then she heard Dylan. Katherine couldn’t help but smile. Katherine got out of bed in no real hurry. Last night had been a culmination of over a month of wooing. They hadn’t had sex but Robin had slept in her arms. It was the best sleep Katherine had in a month and she would do just about anything to make sure it stayed that way. Robin belonged in her bed.

Katherine eventually made her way downstairs and smiled as she saw Robin and Dylan talking. Apparently they had been at it awhile they were both sitting at the kitchen table with finished plates of breakfast and empty cups of coffee. They still hadn’t noticed her so she took and extra moment to watch the scene then all too quickly Robin looked up and saw her standing there. The smile she gave Katherine made her heart swell. She had almost lost this. She had almost let this get away. She had been a fool but no longer. Katherine was a woman who learned from her mistakes she wouldn’t make the same one twice.

“Katherine.” Robin walked over to her and took her hand and led her to the table, “Dylan was just telling me about school.”

“And Robin was just telling me about….her.” Dylan smiled at Robin.

Katherine had been a little nervous about the meeting. She knew that Robin’s former career was a bit off putting to some people but it didn’t seem to bother Dylan. Katherine wasn’t exactly sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing. In the end she just decided not to look for trouble where there was none.

Katherine made herself a quick breakfast and the three women continued to talk but eventually Robin had to go to work. She had odd hours at the restaurant she was hostess at and sometimes she worked nights other times she worked days. It was far better then her old job, at least this one she kept her clothes on and didn’t have to deal with grabby men. Katherine hated to think that Robin ever had to deal with that even though Robin only told her funny stories of her time as a stripper.

After Robin left there was brief moment of awkwardness between Katherine and Dylan. Dylan had called her a few times since she had gotten out of the hospital but Katherine had kept the conversations short not like they had been before. They had once been able to talk for hours. Katherine still remembered having to pay large phone bills because of her hours long phone conversations with her daughter. Now she couldn’t seem to tell her anything. She could barely even look at her daughter and she wasn’t exactly sure why.

“I like her mom.”

Katherine smiled, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about her earlier.”

“I understand why you didn’t.” Dylan paused, “She’s not Mike you know.”

“What?” Katherine paused confused.

“She’s loves you and she’s real.”

--------------------------------------------

Dylan smiled as Susan handed her a cup of coffee. Mike had made a hasty retreat when she had stopped by. Dylan hadn’t really said anything but she still had mixed feelings about Mike. Susan she could understand, Mike on the other hand had really hurt her mother. That wasn’t something she could forgive so easily.

“So you met Robin.”

“Yup.” Dylan said trying not to giggle.

“So what do you think of her?” Susan said taking a seat at the kitchen table next to Dylan.

“A stripper?” Dylan asked simply.

“She told you that?”

“Yup.”

“What else did she tell you?”

Dylan paused, “I was sorry to hear about Karl. I talked to Julie a couple of times….after. She told me you inherited a strip club from him.”

“Yeah figures Karl would leave me a strip club.” Susan laughed.

“Hey at least he left you something.” Dylan smiled, “He loved you.”

“Yeah he did in his own way. He loved a lot of women though, including Bree.”

Dylan smiled, “Heard about that too.”

“You heard about a lot.”

“What, you think you’re the only one who gossips?” Dylan asked.

“Horrors no,” Susan laughed.

“Well, I kinda liked the irony that you introduced mom and Robin.”

Susan frowned at that, “You know I really am sorry about how things worked out between your mother, Mike and me.”

“I know. It wasn’t really your fault.” Dylan paused, “She my mother, so…”

“You’re taking her side.”

Dylan just nodded, “Anyway from what I was told and figured on my own mom and Robin had this whirlwind romance thing going that nearly went kablewy when everyone found out about them. Now mom’s in the doghouse and is trying to get Robin to forgive her. Am I up to speed?”

“Pretty much.”

“So why did you call me again?” Dylan asked.

Susan just smiled.
