Chapter Nine The Conclusion of Part Three

While the Simon's were visiting Michael he decided he was going to finally get Mary out of the hospital since he was starting to feel trapped by them. He was going to her room when he heard Rick and A.J.’s voices coming out of her room. He quickly went into one of the linen closets so they couldn’t see him. He was very upset and had to come up with something to get them out of the room. It didn’t take him long to figure out what to do. There was a Recreation room down the hall from her so he decided that would do. He went to the elevator and went up one floor to the lab and knocked out the tech when he wasn’t looking. Michael quickly made a flash bomb and one pipe bomb. That should be enough to do enough damage to bring the Simon brothers attention and security away from Mary so he could get her out of her room and hopefully out of the hospital. The only problem with his plan was Mary had regained her memory and he didn’t know that. Putting everything on a cart and covering them he hid the tech in the closet and started out for Mary’s floor. When he got there he went straight to the Recreation room and set up everything in two different places where in knew where they would do the most damage. Then he went back into the linen closet to wait for the explosions to hit.

“So when did you say Jon was coming?” she asked. A.J. started to chuckle while Rick just rolled his eyes.

“For the umpteenth time Sweetie he’ll be here soon. Just calm down.” A.J. laughed.

“I’m sorry it’s just that…” she tried to explain.

“It’s okay Sweetie we understand really. We’re just happy you know him and that it’s him you want.” A.J. said smiling.

 “Isn’t that the truth, it made us sick when you said you wanted Michael and kept calling him your husband.” Rick said with a shudder.

“I’m glad I don’t remember that but I guess I have a lot of apologizing to do to him.” She said glumly. Just as A.J. was about to say to her that it wasn’t her fault there was a loud explosion from down the hall.

“What the hell!” Rick said turning to look out the door.

“Oh my God what’s that?” Mary said startled.

A.J. jumped up and looked out of the door also. As the guard stood up. “Mr. Simon it seems to have come from the Recreation room.” The guard said. They could hear screaming coming from that direction.

“Why don’t you go down there and see what you can do. ‘A.J. went back inside’ Rick I sent the guard down there to help out. I think I should stay here.” A.J. suggested. There were interns, nurses and doctors running down to see what they could do.

“Why don’t both of you go there’s probably a fire and God only knows what. I’ll be fine just go.” Mary told them.

 “I don’t think we should leave you alone.” Rick said. They could still hear the screaming.

“Just go I’ll be fine, just go and see what you can do if they don’t need you come back.” She said sternly.

The brothers went down to see what they could do to help. They put out the fire and were helping to take patients out into the hall while Michael made his way into Mary’s room. He backed in so she couldn’t see him at first until he was fully inside. Then he turned around. “Hello my love I hope you weren’t scared at the explosions?” he asked her. Mary just froze at first then she realized that he didn’t know that she regained her memory. So she thought she would play along for a while.

 “Michael um no I wasn’t scared at the explosions. Was that you who did them?” she asked calmly.

 “Of course it was I told you I would come for you. How are you feeling? Are you up too walking?” he asked her.

 “I don’t know I really haven’t gotten out of bed. They just released me from my restraints this morning.” She told him. She really didn’t know because she didn’t remember anything that happened to her while under the drugs.

“Okay don’t worry I’ll get you a wheelchair just sit tight.” He said as he went out and brought back a wheelchair for her.

“That was fast.” She told him.

“I brought one with me just in case. Okay let me help you up.” He said as he walked over to the bed. Now her mind was reeling. She knew her brothers were just down the hall and that Jon should be here at any time but she had to get her brothers attention and fast. She knew there was no way she could run from him. She could feel the weakness in her legs. Michael picked her up and put her in the wheelchair.

“There you go my Love now I just need to get you to the elevator so I need you to be as quiet as possible alright?’ he asked her.

“Anything you say Michael I just want to get out of here.” She said playing along.  Michael wheeled her out into the hall and she could see her brothers helping to bring out some of the victims that were hurt out of the Recreation room into the hall. Now was her only chance so she needed to get their attention and she knew Michael was going to blow.

 “RICK! A.J.! HELP! IT’S MICHAEL! HELP!” she screamed as Michael whipped around and smacked her across the face.

“I told you to be QUIET!” he yelled at her to shut up. Then he could see the shocked looks on her brother’s faces. “Shit!” he said.

Mary rubbed her right side of her face and laughed at him. “Now you’re gonna get it.” The guys just looked at each other and started to run down the hall after them. Michael didn’t bother to reply to her instead he picked her up as she struggled and held her by her waist. Then he dragged her to the stairs that headed to the roof. He jammed something a nickel into the lock just enough that it couldn’t be open from the other side. So as Rick and A.J. got to the door it was jammed.

“Why the hell is he heading to the roof?” A.J. asked.

“How the hell do I know A.J. but stand back.” Rick said as he kicked the door in. Once the door was kicked in they went straight up to the roof and they found them by the edge of the roof.

“Don’t come any closer or I’ll throw her over I swear!” Michael said. Mary clung on to Michael for dear life.

“Okay we won’t we’ll just stay right here. Just don’t hurt her alright.” A.J. said almost pleading.

“Just tell us what you want Michael.” Rick asked. He chuckled.

“You know exactly what I want. Mary! All I want is for us to be left alone, isn’t that right my love?” he asked her. She didn’t know what to do or what to say. She looked over to her brothers for help. Giving them a look of desperation; all they could do were nod their heads and wink at her to give it her best shot.

 “Michael I don’t want you to be angry but I can remember everything and I know I’m not your wife. It’s over okay so just give it up and maybe we can work something out when this is all over alright.” She said nervously.

He just looked at her in shock and anger. “No, no you want to go back to HIM! You won’t come with me.” He said bitterly as he inched to the ledge dragging her with him. Rick and A.J. slowly inched they’re way over to them so if he did get careless hopefully one of them could grab her before she went over.

“Michael I never said I would go back to him did I? You’re putting words in my mouth. Just let us help you darling and then we can finally be together.” She said hoping he would put her down.

While this was all going on Jon and Richie were on their way to the hospital. They were just pulling up.  “Jon you’ve been bouncing back here ever since we left the hotel. We’ll see her in a few minutes chill.” Richie said trying to hold back a laugh.

 “Sorry Rich but this will be the first time since she lost her memory you know? I’m just afraid that she won’t feel the same way she did about our relationship that’s all. What if she doesn’t feel the same way about me?” he asked Richie. Now Richie had to laugh. “What the hell is so funny? I’m spilling my guts out here to you and you’re laughing at me?” Jon said annoyed.

“Kidd she asked for you didn’t she? Then don’t worry about it. I’ve seen you two together believe me that type of love just doesn’t die. You’ll see everything will stop cold when the two of see each other. Then I’ll say Hi and get lost.” Rich explained.

 “Thanks, I mean it. For putting up with me for the past couple of weeks.” He said to Rich.

“You’d do the same for me, that’s what friends and brothers do for each other man.”  The driver parked the car and as he got out he noticed a small crowd gathering across the parking lot. Looking up he saw what everyone else did.

A man and a woman standing on the ledge of the hospital. He opened the car door and said to the two men, “Mr. Bon Jovi there is something going on across the parking lot. There seems to be a man and a woman standing on the edge of the hospital’s ledge. Richie and Jon just looked at each other then jumped out of the car.

They looked up at the roof and Jon screamed “NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” and he ran towards the hospital’s entrance with Richie right behind him.

“Jon wait! Jon!” Richie yelled catching up before they reached the entrance.

“What! That’s Mary up there.” He told Rich agitated.

“I know but if we go storming up there God only knows what he’ll do. Come on let’s do this quietly okay?” Richie suggested.

Up on the roof Rick and A.J. were getting a little worried now because Michael had stepped up onto the ledge. “Michael don’t you think you should come down now?” A.J. asked.

“I will if you both leave.” He told them.

 “We’re not going anywhere until you hand over our sister.” Rick stated.

“Well don’t you live in a rose colored world.” Michael said. Mary was getting antsy so she tried to get herself to getaway. Getting some feeling back into her legs she was standing by herself but just barely as she tried to swing herself forward. But Michael felt what she was doing and tried to catch her and they started to teeter totter back and forth and fell backwards just as Rick jumped forward to try and catch her. Rick and A.J. caught their breath because they both went over. They quickly ran over and with all their might they made themselves look over. Michael laid on the ground dead as Mary was hanging on to the ledge itself for dear life. “Rick! A.J.!” she yelled.

“I don’t think I can hold on much longer!” she yelled.

The brothers finally were able to breath and Rick yelled back down “Hold on Sweetie I’m coming! Okay A.J. hold my legs, waist whatever as I hang over so I can grab her.”

Just then the roof’s door open and Jon and Richie came through. As Jon looked around he couldn’t see Michael or Mary anymore and flipped out. He ran over to the Simon's and asked them “Where the hell is she? Please don’t tell me she went…” he couldn’t fathom the thought.

A.J. turned to him and said. “Jon look we don’t have time right now okay just stay right there, Richie just watch him alright.” A.J. yelled. Jon looked as though he was about to pass out and so was Richie for that matter. It didn’t take them long to figure what had happen. Then Jon heard her voice coming from over the ledge. “Rick hurry!” she yelled.

“I’m coming now Sweetie” Rick said as he leaned over to try and grab her. A.J. carefully had Rick’s waist but then had to try and lower him just a little bit more so he turned to the guys for help.

“Jon, Richie I need your help. Each grab a leg and whatever you do DON’T LET GO!” he told them. They ran over to them and each grabbed one of Rick’s legs. A.J. then bent down to see if he could help pull her up.

“Okay I need you to let go with you right hand Honey and grab mine can you do that?” Rick asked her. She looked up at him and as scared as she was she said back with tears in her eyes “I’ll try.”

With all her might she took a breath and threw her arm up to see if Rick could catch her hand in his. Rick stretched out as far as he could and grabbed her hand as tight as he could and then yelled for her to do the same with her left.

As she did Rick pulled with his right to pull up to catch her left and then he had her with both hands in his. “Okay pull me up! I got her!” Rick yelled. As Jon and Richie pulled Rick up A.J. grabbed his sister so both brothers had a good grip on her. They pulled her over the ledge and on to the roof in A.J. arms. She didn’t realize Jon was there.

“Are you okay Sweetie? Did he hurt you?” A.J. asked.

 “No he didn’t hurt me, I’m okay really just scare shitless that’s all.” She said. Then when she looked up she saw a surprise. She saw the one person that did make her heart stop. The one Michael so desperately wanted to keep her apart from.

“Hey Baby.” He said. She smiled looking up at him. He knelt down and cradled her in his arms and then the water works started. “That’s it Baby, let it out I’m here now. I’m here.” he said holding her.

The three other men just looked at each other and A.J. said “I’ll call the captain and tell him what happened. You better get down there and explained to whomever what happened to Michael. Richie I’ll leave it up to you to have Jon bring her back to her room?”

 “Yeah no problem I’ll just give them a minute.” He said.

Rick and A.J. started down the stairs when a couple of police officers with Dr. Malone and a few interns were heading up the stairs. “Whoa! Where are you going?” Rick demanded. 

One of the officers replied “Well for your information a man just fell to his death from up there and the girl that was hanging with him seemed to go back to the roof. So we were going up to see what the hell happened.” He gruffly told Rick.

“Well that girl was our sister and I’m on my way to call your Captain about it. Dr. Malone if you could please get her she’s still very weak and now she’s emotionally upset about Michael almost killing her so if you could give her something to calm her down?” Rick asked.

“I’ll do what I can Mr. Simon.” The told him.

 “Her boyfriend is with her right now so he’ll go with her she needs him right now.” A.J. said.

The Simon's went down and did what they had to, Rick called the Captain and explained to him what Michael had done and that he fell over the ledge taking their sister with him but luckily they were able to rescue her. A.J. went with the two police officers and explained the same thing to them and joined the other officers and covered Michael’s body. And waited for the coroner to arrive to take him to the morgue. The Dr. took Mary back to her room with Jon and Richie following right behind them. They waited outside while the doctor checked her over. She had cuts and scrapes all over and a hand mark on her face. But the real damage seemed to be her hands and feet. He also gave her a sedative so she could try and get some sleep. When he was done he walked out into the hall and told Jon and Richie it was okay for them to go in.

“Hey Baby how are you feeling?” Jon asked as he walked over to her.

Sleepily she said “Okay I guess I’m just sore, achy all over.” She told them.

 “Well that’s understandable you’ve been through a lot today.” He said as he smiled down to her. Jon saw that her hands were wrapped. His anger for Michael was still with him. He hurt her physically and emotionally. “Awe Baby I’m so sorry what that Bastard did to you.”

She just looked up at him and smiled. “As long as you’re safe everything’s fine.” She told him softly as she yawned. Richie decided to go get some coffee and to leave them alone, when he left Jon held her hand and sang to her softly so she would fall asleep. Richie met the brothers when he was coming back from the cafeteria and they entered Mary’s room. Jon was sitting next to her bed also asleep with his head down on the bed.

Richie chuckled “Well I guess today was too much for Jon as well.”

“It was too much for all of us. I really thought for a moment there we lost her too. When she went over with Michael I thought that was it.” A.J. said solemnly.

“Yeah when we saw her up there by the ledge I thought Jon was about to pass out.” Richie told them.

“Then when we got up to the roof and saw you guys hanging over well…” Richie just shook his head.

 “Well at least we don’t have to worry about him anymore. Now she can live her life without always looking over her shoulder. I really can’t say that I’m sorry the Bastard’s dead.” Rick said.

“Well I better get sleeping beauty over there back to the hotel. Doc will be flipping out when he hears what happened he’ll want to make sure we’re okay.” Richie said.

“Yeah to hell with Mary right?” Rick said distastefully.

“It’s not that Rick it’s just that he doesn’t want anything to happen to his main money maker over there that’s all. But he really does care about us just differently that’s all.” Richie tried to explain to them. Rick didn’t buy it, not for one second. He’s seen guys like Doc before. Eat n’ up and spit them out type of guys.

Richie woke Jon up and then they made their goodbyes and left on the condition if anything happens to call him immediately. Jon and Richie made it back to the hotel where the guys were waiting for them and so was Doc. Doc didn’t even wait for them to get into the room. “Well it’s about time you two got here! Do you know you’re all over the damn news!” he shouted at them. Jon looked angrily at him. He really wasn’t in the mood for his shit right now. Jon just walked in and went to sit down in one of the lounge chairs.

“Really Doc didn’t you realize. Why the hell were we in the news this time?” Jon said sarcastically back at him.

“Oh you’re funny Bongiovi! You know damn well why. Can’t you just once stay out of the damn press because of this broad! I should have done a background check on these Simon's before I hired them. Ever since I hired these guys they’ve been nothing but trouble.” He bitched.

Jon was getting really annoyed now. “Doc you better just shut the fuck up now before you say something I’m going to regret.” Jon said as calmly as he could.

“Jon she’s bringing you and the band down, why the hell can’t you see that?” he asked Jon.

“Really Doc? Well I don’t think so. I think she’s made me more alive than anyone ever has. So if you EVER talk about her like this again not only will I deck you but I’ll fire your ass got it!” Jon said as he got up and walked out of the room and into his bedroom while slamming the door.

The guys just looked at Doc in shook. They couldn’t believe that he actually talked to Jon liked that. Richie was the first one to speak up. “Doc I don’t believe you had the nerve to go at him like that. After what he’s been through you had the nerve to talk smack about her? She almost died you Moron! How the hell did you expect him to react!” Richie was yelling when Doc interrupted.

 “I expect him to react as a professional Richie! When he’s out in the public eye he’s Jon Fucking Bon Jovi Rock Star who is unattached! These damn girl groupies don’t want him to have a girlfriend and I don’t want records or shows to drop because he’s in Freaking Love!” Doc screamed.

Tico had had about enough of this shit. “Alright Doc that’s enough, I said that’s enough! You heard Richie Jon has been through enough shit and doesn’t need you on his back. First of all nobody cares if Jon or anyone of us has girlfriends. That won’t stop them. Never has. Plus you know the more you push him the more you’ll just piss him off. So just back off and get use to her being around for a while. She’s a nice girl and she honestly loves him for him so just handle the bands stuff and leave his and our personal shit alone.” Tico told him as he basically got into Doc’s face.

 Doc didn’t like how the others were talking to him. He looked around the room at the rest of the guys and asked “Do you all feel the same way?” They all nodded. “Fine I’ll lay off, but I expect you guys to show up for shows on time, interviews, and when we do the albums got it? Or anything thing else that comes up when I need you and I don’t want to hear any shit about it.” He said as he left. 

“He is such a Prick!” David exclaimed.

“Yeah he sure is I don’t see why Jon just doesn’t fire him.” Alex asked.

“Because he’s got us this far that’s why. Look what’s he’s done for Kiss and the Crue. Now we’re even bigger than they are.” Richie stated.

“Well who’s going in there and talking to him?” Alex asked.

“Well not me I’m not having my head chopped off. Rich seeing you’re his number one I vote it’s you.” David said.

“I second that.” Tico chimed in.

 “I third it.” Alex said.

“You know you guys are all pricks.” Richie said as he started going towards Jon’s room. “Yeah what the hell am I supposed to say to him?” He asked the guys.

“I don’t know ask if he’s okay, if he needs anything, something like that improvise.” David said.

“Then why don’t you go in there and ask him?” Richie wanted to know.

“Who me? No way I told you I don’t want my head chopped off. Besides I’d just make some stupid joke and he’ll yell at me and where will that get us?” he said.

“He’s right Richie you’d be better.” Tico said. Richie just shook his head as he knocked on the door.

“Come in.” Jon said. He was playing his guitar on his bed.

“Hey mind if I come in?” Richie asked.

“No why?” Jon asked.

 “Just asking.”  Richie said.

“Did Doc leave?” Jon asked Rich.

 “Yeah he did but he wasn’t too happy.” Richie told him.

 “Really? What a shame.” Jon said unenthusiastic. Richie was fidgeting around the room. It was making Jon antsy. “Will you sit down you’re driving me nuts. What else did Doc say?”

“Well we kind of told him to leave you two alone and Tico really put the point across.” Richie told him as Jon laughed.

 “He did did he. Well good for him but I bet that didn’t go over very well.” He said strumming his guitar.

“Well yeah you can say that again. He basically told us that if you or any of us wanted to have a personal life we could but we have to do everything thing he says when he says it.” Richie told him as he held his breathe before Jon exploded. But he didn’t at least not yet.

“What the hell did he mean by that?” Jon wanted to know.

 “He wants us to show up on time for shows, interviews and basically anything that he wants us to do. We’re at his beck and call so to speak.” Richie said squinting up his face.

Jon just looked at him and put his guitar down. “He’s just playing with us Richie. There’s no way I’m giving in to that fucker. This is our band! He’s the one that sought me out. I only went with him because he seemed to have a good track record for the formula that I was looking for at the time. But now Kiss and the Crue are bitching that he’s not paying any attention to them because we surpassed them. So he’s been with them most of the time leaving us to our own devices. He’s only been here because of the crap Michael’s been causing or because of the negative crap. God forbid his money making band starts to falter. He’s full of shit.” Jon said angrily.

“Well on that note…I’ll just leave you to your thing and see you later okay.” Richie said.

“Yeah that sounds good, I can’t wait til tomorrow and I can bring Mary back here.” He said happily.

“Do you want to go out later?” He asked.

 “Nah I think I’ll just stay in and goof around on the guitar and maybe watch some T.V. order some room service.” Jon said.

 “Ok we’ll see you tomorrow then?” Richie asked.

“Hum why don’t you guys give me the day okay. I kinda want to spend it alone with Mary if that’s okay with you guys.” Jon told him.

“Yeah sure and we’ll even fend off Doc for you.” Richie said.

“Thanks man.”  He happily said.

The night went fast, the guys went out without Jon and he just spent a quiet night alone in his room fantasying when he could bring his girl home. The morning came and the Simon's were with their sister when Jon came bounding into her room. “Oh hey Hi.” Jon said smiling from ear to ear.

“Hi Honey you seem to be in a good mood?” she said to him.

“While why not I’m taking you home with me aren’t I?” he asked looking around at them. The guys started laughing.

“Yeah Jon you’re taking her out of here today. She just got the doctor’s okay.” A.J said. Mary was just smiling at him; she thought that he was looking extremely cute.

“So when can we leave this place?” Jon asked.

 “As soon as I can get dressed and the papers signed right?” she asked her brothers.

“Yep I’ll go to the nurse’s station and see if everything is just about ready before he pops out of his skin.” A.J. left chuckling.

Jon just smiled and maybe blushed a little then he helped Mary out of the bed and into the bathroom so she could get changed. A.J. signed the papers of release and went back to the room where Rick and Jon were waiting for Mary to come out of the bathroom. Jon was getting antsy for he thought it was taking her too long to get dressed so he decided to knock on the door to see if she was alright. “Hey Baby are you alright?” he asked.

“Yeah Honey I’m fine I’ll be right out.” She told him, She was hoping that he was going to help her change but that bit the dust.

“Jon it’s okay she’s just a little slow because she hurts. She was bounced pretty hard on that ledge and her hands…” A.J. was saying.

“Yeah I know and if that Bastard wasn’t already dead he would be for just that.” Jon said pissed. 

“We know how you feel Jon believe us we do. But it’s over and he’s not coming back. You both can live your lives now the way you should but we’re going to tell you right now if you ever hurt our sister that will be the last thing you’ll ever do you got us.” Rick threaten.

“Yeah I got you. I have no intention of hurting her not after what that Bastard has put us through. Does that answer your question Rick?” Jon asked.

Rick just stared at Jon straight in his eyes and said “It better because she’s been hurt enough and A.J. and I won’t stand for her getting hurt anymore.”

Just then Mary came out of the bathroom and saw the tension between Rick and Jon. “Is everything okay?”

Jon looked very loving at her and said “Everything is fine Baby and I’m taking you home just as soon as A.J. tells me I can.” He said and gave her a peck on the lips.

“Well then let’s go because I just signed her out.” A.J. said smiling.

“Really I can get out of here?” she asked.

“You’re free.” A.J. said.

“Great I have the car outside.” Jon exclaimed.

“Well the nurse will be here in just a minute she needs to take her out but in a wheelchair company policy sorry.” A.J. said. It didn’t take long for the nurse to come with the wheelchair and take them downstairs to Jon’s waiting car. Mary said goodbye to her brothers and said she would talk to them later and that she wanted to spend some time alone with Jon. They seem to understand as they had talked about this with her before he had gotten there.

They got to the hotel and Jon had settled her into their room. “Baby is there anything you need or want?”

“Well I’m kind of hungry.” She told him.

 “Okay I’ll call room service and get some food up here anything else?” he asked her.

“No just you.” She smiled at him lovingly.

 “Okay I’ll be right back then I’m all yours.” He went and called room service and waited for that to arrive. He fixed everything and went and brought it into the bedroom as she was in her lounge clothes waiting for him.  “Here we go all your favorites.” He said as he moved the cart over to her side of the bed. He put the radio on a nice mood station and they ate in peace since it has been a long time. Once they were finished what was left was just snick snacks that he had order and her soda he knew she loved and tea.

“Jon will you stop fussing and please just come and sit by me.” She asked him. He looked at her and smiled and did what she asked. He got comfortable next to her by putting his arm around her and having her cuddle up into his chest.

 “How’s this?” he asked.

“Perfect.” But there was something else she needed to talk to him about and didn’t know how to bring the subject up to him.

 “Okay what’s all the sighing Baby?” She just looked up to him with a sad face. “Hey what’s wrong?” he asked.

 “I need to ask you something, no I want to talk to you about something and I don’t know how to bring up the subject.” She said.

Jon just blew out his breath knowing that this conversation was going to come up some time but was hoping not this early. “Baby we don’t have to talk about it right now okay.” He tried to explain to her knowing what they’ve been through.

 “No Sweetie I think we need to get this out of the way now if we want to continue this relationship and my guilt to go away.” She told him.

“What? What guilt? You have no reason to feel guilty Baby. None of this was your fault. What happened wasn’t your fault.” He strongly told her.

“I know you are telling me you feel that but I feel that what happened is still…You saw everything that happened, you saw me and Michael…” she was having a hard time getting the words out of her mouth.

“Baby you had no control over what was happening to your body and it was my fault for provoking him that’s why he was hitting me. And no one knew you were going to lose your memory and think that Bastard was your HUSBAND!” he said that last part through gritted teeth angrily.

“Yeah not upset right?” she asked.

 “Just maybe the last part.” He said kissing her on her temple.

“Jon I can see that you still have a lot of anger about this and I just want to make sure you’re not angry with me that’s all.” She said softly.

 He looked at her so lovingly and his heart was hurting that she was hurting. He picked her up and scooped her up into his lap. “Baby you know how much I love you right?” he asked. She shook her head yes and tucked it under his. “Then that’s all we should concentrate on then okay?” he said trying to change the subject.

She just took a deep breath in and said “Jon I know you don’t want to discuss this but I think we have to.”

Jon was getting aggravated now. “But why? Why do we have to discuss it now? Why can’t we just enjoy the fact that Michael is gone and we can just spend this time together alone?” he asked her.

 “Because Jon I want this cleared up between us.” She said.

“There’s nothing between us that’s wrong? You’re putting something there that isn’t Baby.” He told her.

“Okay if you’re sure I’ll take your word for it.” She said softly.

“I’m sure Baby I’m sure.” He said stroking her softly.

Before long she fell asleep in his lap and he carefully rolled her off of himself. He covered her up and went into the other room and decided to see what he could come up with fooling around on his guitar. A few hours had passed and she finally woke and stepped out of the bedroom to find Jon still composing the song that he had started a few hours before. “Hey you’re up. How was your nap?” he asked.

“Not bad how’s the song coming?’ she asked him.

“It’s coming but I’d rather be making you cumming.” He smirked.

“Oh you’re a riot.” She said slapping him on the back then kissing him on top of his head. She walked around the couch to where he was and sat next to him but he put down his guitar and grabbed her dragging her onto his lap. “Hey what’s this all about?” she asked.

“Nothing I just love you is that okay?” he asked.

“Of course it is.” She said.

“How’s your hands doing?’ he asked.

“They still hurt so you’ll have to help me dress and undress Sweetie.” She told him with a wink.

“Oh that’s going to be so so hard.” He told her nibbling on her neck. “What about bathing I still have to help with that to right?”

She only giggled because he kept up the nibbling. Then she felt something growing underneath her. She only felt bad because she knew she couldn’t help orally with that. “Sweetie I can’t…” she started to tell him but he hushed her.

“Don’t you even worry about that okay?” He sweetly told her as he stroked her face gently.

She smiled at him wickedly. “What’s that for Baby, I know that wicked smile of yours.”

“Well there’s nothing wrong with my back.” She smiled at him. At first he couldn’t understand what her back had to do what with anything but then it hit him.

“Are you sure?” he asked afraid that he might hurt her.

“Sweetie I’ll becareful and besides I just need to lift my legs or wrap them around you. You just need to help me undress.” She winked.

“I don’t know Baby what if it triggers something inside you that needs it like when, well you don’t really remember but you were craving it Baby something fierce. What if you can’t stop?” he asked concerned.

 She just looked at him really not knowing how to answer him. “Well we won’t know until we try right.” She said.

“I know Baby but I just don’t want to hurt you in anyway.” He told her.

 “I know you don’t and that’s why I love you so, and you won’t.” she said to him kissing him fiercely. He broke the kiss finally and picked her up and carried her into the bedroom and laid her onto the bed as gently as possible. He carefully helped her take off her lounge clothes and put them next to the bed as he then took off his and carefully crawled into the bed next to her. They spent the rest of the afternoon and into the night making love and reconnecting together the time lost that a manic had pulled them apart and made them that much stronger
