With the pending release of ‘Close to You’ we decided to take a weekend break, as we all new that it would be a while before we would be able to get away for some R&R.
A family member of the Carpenter family had a vacation home in a quiet suburb of California, we decided to take it. So the four of us packed up for our little trip, we were all looking forward to a get away for a while.
We decided to take two cars, Karen obviously with Peter. Richard asked me to join him in his car. I jumped at the chance we had been getting on so well, and I could feel that there was something happening, and in my mind I thought that he was feeling the same way.
We got the holiday home and settled in. That night Karen and I decided that we would cook a meal, I am sorry I cannot remember what we cooked, but I remember that the kitchenette was very small, and I think that it was a miracle that anything came out of that kitchen that night. We had fun.
That night we had chance to reflect away from all the madness that had been surrounding us to get the single and the album out on time. We sat and drank wine. Told stories and generally bonded very well.
I remember it getting very late and Karen saying that she wanted to go to bed. Karen and Peter retired for the evening, and left Richard and myself in the living area. I remember quite clearly Richard talking very softly to me. He asked me that when we get back to L.A if he could see me romantically as he had not felt the way he was feeling in a very long time.
I was very flattered and very excited as so many things about him excited me.
I agreed after talking about this at length. He told me he was going to bed he kissed me very tenderly good night.
He left I sat there with the lights off drinking my wine, smoking a cigarette with so many thoughts running through my mind. Would this work I told myself my mind was running on overtime. I was startled when Karen hit the sidelights.
‘Catherine what are you still doing up is everything ok honey’
‘Oh err yeah I am fine just finishing up, then I am going to bed’
Karen knew there was something else on my mind. ‘Cathy I know you better than that I do hope there is nothing bothering you’
‘Karen if I tell you something I think you need to keep this to yourself for the moment as its something personal, and errrm very new’ Karen nodded in sincerity. I went on to explain briefly what Richard had told me.
Karens face lit up, and to honest this made things a little easier in my mind. I was actually wondering how she would take the news.
‘Catherine this is turning out to be a nice weekend all round don’t you think’.
