Janet felt Jack's lips meet hers and embrace them at first, but it was short lived. Jack gently pushed her away and stood up. "What's wrong?" She asked in a hurt tone. "Janet, you're a wonderful person and I like you, but I'm in love with Lauren." She looked at him in shock. "Y…You are?" She asked softly. He nodded. -
Lauren pushed Larry off of her. "What the heck are you doing!" She asked, rage surging through her. "You know that Jack and I are together!" "Exactly, which means I can tell Roper and have Jack thrown out, unless…" "Unless what?" She gulped. "Unless you sleep with me." He gave her a sly grin and she just stared at him in disbelief.

Janet couldn't help but feel hurt at Jack's news, but she pushed it away. After all, Lauren and Jack were her best friends and she really was happy for them. "I just wish I could find her." Jack whispered, a small tear rolling down his cheek. "Don't worry Jack. I know Lauren, she'll come back." She assured him. "I hope you're right." He said, a small sob escaping his lips. She leaned over and gave him a friendly hug which he accepted gratefully.

"Let me get this straight, in order for Jack, Janet and I to stay in our apartment, I have to sleep with you?" Lauren bit out in anger. "That's right." Larry answered. She paced the floor, trying to get her brain to take in this information. Tears fell from her eyes. She loved Jack more than anything else in the world and she couldn't imagine life without him. "Fine, let's just get this over with." She sighed. He got on top of her and began removing her clothes and kissing her all over.
