"A baby Sue Ellen?" JR shouted standing up from her leaving her on the floor.
"I thought you'd be happy?" Sue Ellen cried thinking about what she had just done. She swore wasn't going to tell anybody especially not JR. Sue Ellen was going to have this baby aborted simply because she didn't want to have another child with JR. She loved John Ross to death but another Ewing baby wasn't to be had.
"How are you sure that child is mine Sue Ellen?"
"What on earth do you mean? ofcourse it's yours!". Shouted Sue Ellen rising from the floor and reaching for her back that was aching in pain from being curled up on the floor over JR thighs.
"Oh really Sue Ellen? Then what was Clint Ogden doing here kissing you and asking you out to dinner? Does he know about this...well Sue Ellen?". JR was more than upset that this had happened. He had no idea how badly this would hurt. Sure he would have been able to take the Clint thing but a baby.
They both sat in silence for an hour. JR was thinking things over and over whereas Sue Ellen sat back down on the floor and felt her little tummy wondering what on earth it was she was going to do with JR and with this baby. How on earth would JR allow her to abort it now. Me and my big mouth. Sue Ellen thought.
All JR needed was for Sue Ellen to say no Clint didn't know about any of this. JR let go a sigh of relief as she said:
"Clint doesn't know about any of this...". Sue Ellen let go of more tears. She felt each and every one go down her cheeks just as she felt him coming closer and closer pulling her up toward.
"Let go of me JR, please!". Sue Ellen said not wanting to be comforted by him. "PLEASE JR!"
JR had Sue Ellen by the arm, a tight grasp on it. He wasn't going to let go not this time. Not anymore. He led Sue Ellen to the couch kicking and screaming. Pleading and begging. JR, guiding her by the hips, sat Sue Ellen apon his lap and tucked a strand of loose hair behind her ear, touching her face with ever chance.
"Sue Ellen darlin' if this baby truley is mine we could make all better, couldn't we? I mean yeah sure, I have some making up to do I admit that but I also need some explanations too don'tcha think?"
"Ye... yes you do but I'm really tired JR and I just...". Before Sue Ellen could finish JR interupted her.
"Would you like me to make you some tea, draw you a bath maybe I mean, it's least I could do. I am the cause of you missing your date with good old lover boy Clint". JR said playfully as he raised his arms and wrapped them around Sue Ellen's back making shivers run up her spine.
Sue Ellen let out a slight giggle as JR moved his hands up and down her back, tickling her and made more comments on Clint. He hadn't heard her laugh in what felt like forever. He always got a good laugh himself when Sue Ellen laughed. She was a little more than surprised with JR's next move. He had his lips apon hers.
Sue Ellen felt strange, weird like it was her first ever kiss. Not passionate. Not demanding but gentle and sweet. This was the type of kiss that made Sue Ellen feel loved and not taken advantage of. The type that made JR want to never let go of her, hold her forever, protect her. Sue Ellen suddenly moved away, up off JR's knee and running towards the bedroom.
"Sue Ellen wait I never meant... I didn't mean to..I?". JR ran up behind her before she could close the door.
"You can't keep doing this to me JR you honestly can't I won't have it!" Sue Ellen whimpered out punching his chest as her came closer and closer.
JR grabbed her fists on her last punch, which was taken quite sorely. He pulled her tight and simply let her cry out in anger. He stroked her hair. Her hair, it always smelled like Chanel no.5, to JR it did anyway. So sweet and just divine. How JR used to love taking her out to dinner then dancing or a show and coming home to have a little fun, then in the mornings having her hair against his chest, so soft. It was dream-like.
After another ten minutes went passed Sue Ellen raised her head from JR's shoulder making him come back from his little day dream. Sue Ellen began edging him towards the door.
"Go put on some tea, I'll be right out". Sue Ellen said most steadly yet quiet. She placed a kiss on his cheek then. Making JR smile and her grin.
"Why the sudden change of heart darlin'?"
"Because if you promise to change you ways, this will work out just fine". Sue Ellen said, sounding so hopeful. She knew this was the right thing to do.
She closed the bedroom door behind him as he walked to the kicthen with a spring in his step.
"Last chance JR, She gave you it and this time there's no messing up". JR whispered to himself heading for the kitchen.
