The next morning, almost all the men of the town were on the hunt for Jud. The warrant had been posted as for “assault of Miss Laurey Williams” and that alone had the town in an uproar. No one dared mess with Laurey and get away with it. But one man was not on the hunt and that was Curly. Curly was with Laurey, caring for her and making sure she followed the doctor’s orders. But the whole day he couldn’t shake what Doc Tyler had told him: We’ll have ‘t see ef she is ‘th child. The words were ringing though his mind making him crazy. What Jud did was bad enough, but if Laurey had to care for his child…. No. It was too much for anyone to have to bear. However, Curly was so lost in his thoughts, that is was also obvious to those around him.
“Curly? What’s goin’ through that head of your’n?” Laurey finally asked by mid-day.
“Jus’ worryin’ ‘bout you. That’s all.”
“Nah, you was worried ‘bout me last night and you wasn’t like this.” She knew him too well for him to hide anything from her.
“Let’s….let’s go somewheres together. Jus’ us. Mebbe a picnic.” Skeptically, Laurey agreed, hoping she would understand more on this outing.
An hour later, Curly and Laurey were seated on a blanket with their picnic half eaten, neither of them being all that hungry. “Curly, please. What’s goin’ on ‘th you?”
Curly took a deep breath. Everything was telling him that he shouldn’t tell her, shouldn’t make her think about it, but he knew she deserved to see the whole situation. “Doc Tyler talked to me in the hall after your exam last night.”
Laurey looked at him worriedly. “W-what did he say?”
“He…um…he said he would have to do a checkup in a month or two.”
“That’s why you’s worried? I’m sher he wants to know I’m healed….”
“He will have to check to see ef you are ‘th child,” Curly blurted out, just hoping to get the words out.
“What?”
“I mean, given what happened, I suppose there is a small chance –“
“How small a chance?!” Laurey said frantically.
“I-I don’t know, Laurey. That’s all he told me.”
Laurey tried desperately to keep the tears from falling, but she couldn’t help it as they began. “Curly, it ain’t fair! It ain’t! I don’t want his bebe! I don’t want none of this!”
“Shh, I know. I know,” Curly said, holding her close. “We don’t know that you has a bebe, okay? We jus’ gotta wait ‘n see. It’ll be okay.”
“How’s it gonna be okay? I don’t wanna marry ‘im!”
“Laurey, what you talkin’ ‘bout? Course you won’t marry ‘im! Laurey, he attacked you. He ain’t gittin’ anywheres near you.”
“But, ef it’s his bebe….”
“No. He ain’t comin’ near ya. He’ll go to jail ‘fore he gits near t’ ya.”
“But no one’ll marry me ef I has a bebe that ain’t theirs….”
“I-I would….” Curly said it, knowing full well what he said and that this wasn’t the best time, but she needed to know he loved her, that she wasn’t going to go through this alone.
“Curly? What’re you sayin’?” she asked, looking up into his eyes.
“I’m saying….I’m saying that I wants to marry ya, Laurey. I do. I won’t ever leave ya. I’m gonna protect ya, no matter what.”
“I wants to marry you too, Curly!” Curly leaned down and kissed her gently and sweetly on the lips, showing her his love. “When?” was the first word out of her mouth when they broke apart.
“What?” Curly was caught off guard.
“When can we get married?”
“Laurey, don’t you think – considering recent events – I thought you’d want t’—“
“Curly, w-who all knows ‘bout the bebe?”
“Um, well, just the doc, I guess. Mr. Carnes and Aunt Eller know what happened ter ya, but I ain’t said nuthin’ else to ‘em. They may be thinkin’ it a possibility, but I don’t know….”
“So, what ef there is a bebe? No one else in town would have t’ know it were Jud’s….”
“Laurey –“
“I jus’ mean that, then it- it wuldn’t have t’ be so strange a situation ef….”
Curly was a good man, an honorable man. And if this was what was going to help Laurey face this terrible thing that happened to her, he couldn’t say he was upset to be marrying her sooner rather than later. “We’ll do it soon. We’ll have t’ find ya a dress somewheres…..” Laurey kissed Curly in her excitement and they packed up their picnic to head back to the farmhouse to start their plans.
Aunt Eller was so excited to hear the news, but was a bit taken aback by the short timeline she was given to make this wedding happen. However, over the next week, plans were falling into place. Everyone in town was excited to hear Laurey and Curly were finally getting married. The women of the town volunteered to make a meal and help decorate the farm and Aunt Eller was able to find Laurey’s mother’s dress for her to wear. On the day before the wedding, Curly found Andrew Carnes in town and pulled him aside.
“Any sign of ‘im?” Curly asked, not able to even name the man who was still on the loose after attacking Laurey.
“No, son. No one’s seen ‘im. But ef he shows up, he won’t git far.”
“Thank ya.”
“Sher thing, son. How’s she doin’?”
“She’s focused on the weddin’. That’s helped. Nights are roughest. She gits sceered easy.”
“Sher, sher.”
“Mr. Carnes, can I ask fer a favor?”
“What is it, son?”
“Could ya ask the men not to do a shivaree tomarra?”
“Oh, son. It’s a custom. It’s all in good fun.”
“Mr. Carnes, please? I-I don’t know how Laurey’ll be after the weddin’ and I don’t want ‘er to git upset over nuthin’.”
“Alright, son. I’ll do my best.”
“Thank ya, sir. Now I gots to git back ter Laurey.”
Mr. Carnes gave a small nod of his head, sending Curly off back to the farmhouse.
Author's Note: Sorry this chapter is a bit slow and on the shorter side. If I can find a better way to deal with the purposal, I would love to rework this chapter at some point, but I wanted to get this posted so I can move on to what is coming next!
