A/N: Before you start this chapter, let me tell you that this is what makes it rated R. This is also a crucial part of the story. Things are finally explained in this chapter. Also, since the part in here that makes it R is my first time writing something like that. So please no flames and understand that I am a virgin and I have no idea what goes on while having sex. Happy reading!

On Monday Mi Amor

            Alanna lazily walked down the steps the next morning. Since it was Sunday she just slept in. When she walked into the kitchen there wasn't the usual things that normally happen there: someone playing with Wyatt, Piper fixing breakfast, someone setting the table, and everyone else just talking about their plans for the day. But today there in the kitchen was only Jon. She felt her heart beat faster just thinking about being alone with him in a room.

            "Good morning, where is everyone?" Alanna asked as she went to the cupboard to get a bowl and some cereal.

            "Sleeping in. You know that they were cleaning up at the club late last night so they're sleeping in the rest of the morning."

            "Weren't you studying for the oral exam that Ms. Bassets is going to give you tomorrow?"

            "Yeah, and I stayed up late doing so. They didn't get back until, say, I don't know like 2 or 3 AM."

            "So what you're telling me is that you stayed up all the way until they got back. I kind of find that hard to believe," she retorted.

            "I went to bed until one and when they came in I just heard them say what time it was, so there, believe me now?"

            "Yeah, yeah, like I ever would." Alanna joked. Jon then made a fake You- hurt- my- feelings look. "Oh don't give me that look! You know how hard it is for me to resist that puppy dog look!"

            "Good, then you believe me?" He pressed the look to make it seem that he was about to cry by making his bottom lip quiver.

            Alanna caved not long after that. "Yes I do! Now are you satisfied?"

            "Just enough." They both cracked up into fits of laughter.

*~*~*~*

            The day was lazy and carefree so her George, Jon, and Sara all just talked about school and every thing. "Oh, you all, Jessica is coming back from New Orleans on Friday and she's gonna be having a party then, you wanna come?" Sara asked.

            "Shit, and you're just telling us now!"

            "Yeah so, and anyways you were gonna find out tomorrow anyways because her brother Carter is going to be giving out the flyers."

            "Well, if everyone is just finding out tomorrow then I'm there." Alanna answered.

            "Same here." Jon and George both said.

            "Beware, the party is unsupervised so there might be a keg, just to let you know before you get wasted."

            "Thanks for that."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            The day of the party came up too soon. It wasn't until lunch when Jon, Gary, and George met Jessica for the first time. "Hey Miss Independent, aren't you going to say hello to one of your best friends?"

            Alanna quickly turned around in her seat to see that one of her best friends show up through the doors of the canteen. Jessica was one the first girls to meet Alanna besides Sara. Jessica too knew about Alanna's past and her powers but Jessica found it no shock that Alanna was a witch for that she too was one.

            When Jessica approached the table Alanna got up to hug her. "Oh, I almost forgot. Jessica, these guys here at the table are Jon, my boyfriend George, and Gary. You remember them from the e-mails that I sent you and the photos that I scanned for you."

            "Yeah, I know all about you three. So are you all coming to my fiesta later?"

            "You bet, were there!" Alanna cheered. Throughout the rest of lunch they talked about how everything has been while she was gone and about New Orleans. Rapidly the day turned into night and it was ready to party.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            To say that Jessica lived in a house would be an understatement. Jessica lived with the elite on the other side of San Fran in a two story nine bedroom and eight-bathroom mansion. When Alanna, Sara, Marie, George, Jon, and Gary all showed up at Jessica's house the guys were bewildered. Once inside it was jammed pack. Gary and Marie went over to Stephan, Ethan, and a few other friends that were on the floor. George was pulled over to some of his friends in his technology class and Sara went searching for Jason. Just Alanna and Jon were left.

            For a while they browsed around the place stopping to chat with someone or to dance. By the time when they got to the punch bowl they didn't notice that someone spiked it. After a few drinks and them kind of getting tipsy they headed upstairs. Once up there they saw that there were only a few rooms left. Picking one they went in. The room was an ice blue color that had a large queen sized bed with silk sheets that stood in the middle.

            "So, this proves how rich Jessica's mom is." Jon inquired.

            "Yeah, she gets to go all around the world. Every break and each time school starts she's in another state or country. I just wish that I was like her at times."

            "Yeah but you know that the noble coins that we have are very valuable, we could be almost just as rich."

            "I know, but still, I'd like to keep hold of my past so that way I'd have a way home." Alanna said. Jon reached for her hand holding it tight. He then brought his hand to her face making her look him in the eye. When he did so she felt her heart race a thousand miles per hour. But what about George, her brain asked. But she pushed that thought aside with that thought that this right now is right.

            "We will go home, I can assure you of that." Jon said. He then leaned down and brushed his lips against hers. She responded by kissing back and by wrapping one of her arms around his neck and the other pressed onto his chest. His arms encircled her in a tight embrace as they deepened the kiss.

            He then lead them both towards the bed lowering them onto it. This isn't right, you are to marry Thayet, not making love to Alanna, his mind screamed. But this is what you want; Thayet didn't even have the history that you and Alanna have, his heart responded. Deepening the kiss they started to let their hands roam all over each others bodies. Jon's hand found its way to the zipper of her dress. Slowly he slid it down. Alanna sat up so that way he could remove it the rest of the way. Once free of the dress, she started to unbutton his shirt, slowly caressing the flesh that was showing through. Soon enough it was off of him. He then started to undo his pants and then they too were on the floor. All that was left on was her bra and G-string and his boxers. "Are you sure that you want to do this." Jon questioned.

            "When we first did this you told me that you would show me love, the forever kind. I want that now, I want to be shown love and I want to feel the everlasting love that you promised me. Please do this for me."

            He knew for sure that she meant her words; he removed the rest of the garments that held him back from feeling her again like he used to. He'd later discovered that she had his boxers off already. Forgetting what was right and wrong he took a nipple into his mouth while his hand groped the other. She started to moan and pant. He then switched breasts and repeated the same procedure. When he was done he placed butterfly kisses from her chest down to her lower abdomen.

When his lips found its way to her steaming opening he then started to suck in the sweet juices that it provided. Alanna felt the temperature of the room become about ten degrees higher. She was going crazy and she couldn't hold it in any longer. Jon then hit a very sweet spot and Alanna exploded in Jon's mouth. He lusciously ate up the sweet offerings that the opening had to give.

He then positioned himself to where his tip was barely touching her opening. Alanna nodded her approval to him as he pushed himself into her. She gasped deeply and sharply as he entered. "Do wish for me to continue?" He asked.

"Never stop," she breathed.

His rhythms were at first slow but steady. Soon they sped up their movements. With each thrust she'd dig her nails into his back and she would moan her approval. Faster and harder they went their pulses reaching the very high rate. Their breaths shallow and sharp, "I'm almost there my love." Jon claimed. Soon enough he came as she followed by screaming his name.

George had been at the stairs when he heard it all- her screaming out his name. The name that now made his stomach churn. He couldn't stand hearing anymore but one thing that kept him from leaving the area he was in. "Alanna, I just want you to know that I love you." Jon said.

"I know you showed me through tonight. And I love you too." Jon pressed his lips onto hers, as they were about to enter another fiery embrace.

That was it for George, he walked into the room to find them kissing under the sheets. "How could you?" were the only words that he said before he left.

Breaking the kiss Alanna hurriedly jumped from the bed to place her dress and shoes back on to only carry her bra and panties. "I have to-"

"I understand already. I'll be down soon." She then was about ready to leave the room before he said, "If you're to go back to him, I'll understand and I won't stand in your way. I just want you to know that I love you and that I shall always will."

"As will I. Jon, I'm not going to go back to him. I can't. I've made a mistake already and it will make it worst if I begged him to take me back. If I do that then I'm going to loose all the respect that I have for myself and if I am to find out that he hasn't been faithful to me then it'll show that I begged him to take me back for nothing but to be played. You understand this right?"

"Yes, but you should go and talk to him."

"Yeah I should," she then started to walk to the steps but turned back to the room for one more thing. "Jon, Thank you," and then she left to go for the rest of the party to try and find George. When she found him, he was in the empty study just sitting in the dark. When she turned on the lights his face held no expression. "George, I just wanted to say that-"

"Save your breath Trebond. I know that you are here to apologize. There is no need to. I knew that it would be hard for me to keep you as my own here, so therefore I understand." George whispered.

"Well that was one thing. The other is that I feel as if I need to be alone for a while. I don't feel like I have enough freedom when I'm around you. I feel as if someone is smothering me and I can't get away. Basically what I'm saying is that we need to break up for a while."

George got up from his seat and walked to the door. "Your wish is my command," then he turned and left.

For a while she sat there alone thinking. She was now single again, but she didn't feel right about it. I still want to be with him, but I'm not going to crawl back to him. I'm not going to stoop down that low.

By the time she got up to go look for Sara she found it no need to for that she was already at the door. "I just heard of what you did."

"So do you think that I did the right thing by not going back to him?"

"Who, Jon or George because they're both great guys" Sara asked.

"George, I believe that I made a mistake that would be too hard to fix."

"You did do the right thing, but he didn't."

Alanna gave Sara a strange look as if to say what on earth?

"Alanna, when you and Jon were upstairs, George went up to look for a room for us. I'm sorry but we were just down there and all and one thing led to another."

Alanna took time to soak in all of the information that she just heard. So George was about ready to cheat on her as well. I did do the right thing after all, she thought. When she looked back at her friend she saw that she had this hurt feeling on her face. Alanna then decided to probe into her mind. She saw that Sara had feelings for George, that she was in between happy and mad at her best friend, that she was relived that the truth was out. Alanna saw that Sara was proud of her for not running back to George and that she was also proud that Alanna knew exactly what her mistake was. Alanna got out her friends mind.

"I know that you were reading my mind so I'm not going to waste my breath."

"Good, now here's one thing that I need for you to do. If you want to go out with George, be my guest, but please note that I'd prefer it if you waited to get with him. I'm going to wait to be with Jon for a while so that everyone can cool off."

"I think that'll be best for everyone as well too."

After a while of talking the two girls left the room to find that George, Jon, Gary, and Marie all standing outside of the door. There was this look that everyone was ready to go home. They all went to say ye to Jessica and then they were on the road to go home.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

On Monday morning I feel blue,

And, boy, it's all because of you.

On Tuesday heartache is my friend,

I feel like we have reached the end.

On Wednesday I pick up the phone

I'm tired of being all alone,

We've been apart too many days

So, boy, you better change your ways.

Boy, you're in my dreams,

But what can I do?

Will you love me true?

Hold on to my heart

'Cause I'm falling for you.

Stop playing games,

I know you can't hide,

What you feel inside.

Borrando cada dolor

On Monday Mi amor.

On Thursday I give you a chance,

To show me some of your romance.

When Friday comes you hold me tight

And whisper sweet things through the night.

On Saturday I realize

Your ways have got me hypnotized.

On Sunday I make love to you

You are my every dream come true.

Boy, you're in my dreams,

But what can I do?

Will you love me true?

Hold on to my heart

'Cause I'm falling for you.

Stop playing games,

I know you can't hide,

What you feel inside.

Borrando cada dolor

On Monday Mi amor.

There was a darkness in my heart,

And then I found you,

Don't ever want to be apart

And live with out your love.

Boy, you're in my dreams,

But what can I do?

Will you love me true?

Hold on to my heart

'Cause I'm falling for you.

Stop playing games,

I know you can't hide,

What you feel inside.

Borrando cada dolor

On Monday Mi amor.

            The song played through Alanna's CD player, as she woke up on Monday. Boy, how true this song is, she thought. During the weekend Alanna, Jon, and George all avoided each other. The only exception was when Alanna and Jon were alone to just talk. They never discussed the night of the party though, even if they wanted to.

            When Alanna went down for breakfast she heard Jon and George talking. "… I never meant to hurt Alanna, its just that Sara was there and all…"

            "George, when are you going to give it up? You and Alanna are through, and even though I know what you two are going through, but to me it sounds like all that you're doing is making excuses. Why couldn't you have been patient with her? Each time I saw you two alone together all it seemed that you were doing [to me] was trying to get her to sleep with you. I know why she didn't feel comfortable with you. All you did was push her," Jon bit back. His words were true. Each time she was alone with George he would touch her in places that didn't feel comfortable. He would ask questions about why they couldn't make love like they used to. And when they kissed, his hands would roam to areas that were now meant for someone completely special. She didn't like to rush anymore. She liked to take her time to look at the reality of the situation, but when with George, all he ever did was complain and want to have sex. It was as if he turned into a monster to her.

            "I was patient with her, I never pushed her to do something that she didn't want to, I just wanted to love her like I did before her disappearance." George replied hotly.

            "Then at the party, why did you go upstairs to look for a room for you and Sara? How come when Alanna and I were alone she would tell me things that were to be said to you? Why did she tell me that she didn't feel safe and secure with you anymore? Answer those damn questions. I mean, when she went missing, I didn't sleep with six different women, so tell me, why the hell did she call off your wedding?" Six different women, Alanna's heart broke in two. George had no answer. "Just what I thought, you really never loved her." Jon then got up to go up the steps.

            "Why don't you tell me why you slept with Alanna? Why did you sleep with her when you are to marry Thayet?" Those words stabbed Jon in the back- hard.

            "Thayet only wanted to please me and others, she didn't understand that I needed council when things were getting tough. She never joked around like Alanna did, never address me as a true friend or companion. She would never even sleep in the same bed that I did. All she did was ask questions and weave. We didn't do anything together privately. It was always when we were in the public eye that she would be affectionate. With Alanna though, she showed her affections to me privately and when we do get together, publicly. I have no clue if Thayet loved me or not when I proposed to her and I still don't know, but I do know that Alanna now loves me." With that he left. Halfway up the stairs he saw her sitting on the steps almost in tears.

"Thank you for saying the things you did or I wouldn't have known that he didn't love me true," she sobbed. He rubbed her back whispering sweet things into her ear. As soon as she calmed down he helped her to her room. Once in there he let her take her time to ask questions or to just talk. "Tell me, exactly what happened after I went through the portal," her voice steady and calm told him that she was prepared to hear anything that was to come.

"After you went through the portal, I went to tell George first about what happened. He understood the situation straight on. Then I went to tell my council about the incident. I had to undergo questioning about it for a month. After, we set up search parties for all of Tortall, Criria (Cry- rIa), and Yaka Nova. We searched Tortall first, and it took a year to discover that you were not there. Yaka Nova took two months due to the king there setting up parties of his own as well.

"We started on Criria when George slept with the first girl that he saw, and we later found out that she bore his child when we were half way through the search. Two weeks after that discovery he slept with three others. Then a month later we were in Trebecka and he did in another maiden. Then the night before we were taken into the portal there was another one in Brigand." Jon ended the story there. She knew now that they weren't all in one week but spaced out. It made her sick to even think about it.

"Alanna, are you OK?"

"Yes I am, but even though I have an idea of the answer to this question I just want to know who was the leader of the parties."

She looked into his eyes and saw all that she needed to, that his love and loyalty for her made him the one to lead the search. He leaned in and kissed her lips sweetly; she kissed him back as he pulled her down. During their make out session she realized that it was Monday. "Jon, don't we have school today," she asked breaking the kiss.

"No, remember this is Veterans Week. No school during Veterans Week. " Jon replied tweaking her nose.

"I forgotten that it was November already," she chortled. "What is today?"

"The tenth," Jon answered when she placed her head on his chest. Stroking her hair softly she then fell asleep after a while. "I love you, my angel," he said before he too fell asleep.

A/N: There this is the longest chapter that I wrote so far. Gosh a lot of work! Sara I know that now you're in a frenzy but don't worry it's all going to work out. Have a great Derby Weekend everyone!

Ciao Bella,

Alanna-Lianna
