All Bets Are Off – Chapter 10
A WEEK LATER
Gem was comforting her still upset friend although Cj would never admit it by bringing over a tub of Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough Ice Cream. They sat in front of the TV with a spoon each watching Chris wrestle live on RAW.
"He really is hot ain't he?" asked Gem answering her own question about her new boyfriend as he celebrated his victory
"Uh huh" replied Cj staring into space just then John's music hit and out came the champ. Gem immediately shut off the TV and Cj smiled and looked at her friend.
"It's ok you know"
"I know I was just bored with it"
"Gem I appreciate your concern and this cheer me up ice cream night but I am fine. You don't have to switch the TV off just because he comes on"
"I just thought…"
"I know what you thought but I'm ok. I'm a big girl and I've been through worse"
"Ok"
Just then Gems cell phone began to ring she pulled it out of her pocket and smiled as she saw it was Chris calling
"Hey baby" she said looking at Cj and realising this was just rubbing it in her face "I'll take this in your room ok?" Cj nodded her head and shook it as Gem left still talking to Chris. Cj sat for a moment in the quiet room and for a split second she felt alone. She quickly picked up the remote and turned on the TV to see John wrestling. John picked his opponent up for the FU and the camera zoomed in on his face. Cj then threw down the remote picked up her coat and bag and walked out of the apartment.
A WHILE LATER
Gem walked out of the bedroom after finishing her conversation with Chris to find the TV playing to itself and that there was no sign of Cj. Gem walked over to the window and looked into the street to see if she could see her friend but there was no sign of her. Gem called Cj's cell and got voicemail.
"Cj where are you? Call me I'm worried about you"
LATER
Cj stood looking up at an apartment building and slowly made her way up the stoop to the door. She buzzed an apartment and a voice came over the speech unit.
"Hello"
"It's me"
"Oh come on up"
Cj was buzzed into the building and she made her way upstairs to apartment 9F she knocked on the door and a gorgeous man opened the door.
"I'm surprised to see you here"
"Yeah well Danny I'm of full of surprises"
"Well come on in then"
Cj walked into Danny's apartment and followed him into the living room where he handed her a drink she downed the vodka and looked at Danny.
"I've tried to get over you I really have but you've got some kind of hold on me and I just can't get you out of my head. I mean we were good together. What possessed you to cheat on me?"
"Complete stupidity. Believe me Cj I've regretted it ever since"
"Really?" she asked
"Yeah the first morning I woke up and the first thing I smelt was your perfume on my pillow and I missed you not being there"
"Wow I missed you too but Danny I'm not willing to put myself back into a relationship with you if all you intend to do is hurt me again"
"I would never do that to you. Not again I wouldn't risk losing you"
"So you promise not to hurt me?"
"Yes"
Cj smiled "Then let's try again because I know that something amazing is supposed to happen between us" Danny smiled and walked over to Cj and pulled her close and dove in for a kiss but Cj stopped him "Not yet"
"Ok" he replied
THE NEXT DAY
Gem knocked furiously on Cj's door who rose from her sleep irritably to answer the door and stop the banging. Cj saw it was Gem groaned and made her way back to bed.
"Where did you go last night?" she asked
"Out" slurred Cj half asleep
"Where?"
"Out"
"Oh be like that then Cj. Here I am concerned about you and all I get is 'out'"
"I went for a drink hence the hangover and need for you to SHUT UP!" she screamed only causing herself more pain
Gem walked out of the bedroom and put some coffee on moments later she returned to the bedroom. She put down the tray and opened the curtains causing Cj to jerk from the bright light. Gem punched her and Cj rolled over to see Gem holding a glass of water and aspirins. Cj struggled to sit up and took the glass and aspirins from her. She handed Gem the glass back and Gem replaced it with a cup of coffee. Cj took the coffee and sipped it.
"Thanks" she said to her friend as Gem sat next to her on the bed
"No problem. It's good to see you handling this so well"
"No use in drowning your sorrows" she replied sarcastically
"Just call him Cj"
"I don't want to"
"I want to have a laugh. I've been nothing but shit on for so long I just want to go out and have some fun"
"So let's go girl's night out tonight?"
"Can't I have plans"
"With who?"
"With a man"
"A man?"
"Mickey"
"Oh well we can come along"
"No offence but he don't like you"
"Can't say I'm crazy about the queen"
"Then it's sorted I'm guna dance the night away with gay men who can't break my heart while you stay at home and talk to Chris on the phone"
Gem smiled and Cj rested her head on her shoulder
"Deal"
THAT NIGHT
The doorbell rang and Cj walked out of her apartment and downstairs to meet Danny. She walked out and saw him standing at the bottom of the stoop.
"You haven't ditched me yet. This is a good sign" she said walking down the steps.
Danny opened the door of his black taxi for her and she climbed inside and they drove off. Just as the car turned off the street a yellow cab pulled up and John got out and ran to the top of the stoop and pressed the buzzer but there was no reply. John leant his head against the call box and then decided to try Gem's he ran down the stoop and got back into the cab and made his way over to Gem's.
AT GEM'S APARTMENT
John paid the taxi and ran into Gem's building and made his way up to her apartment and he frantically knocked on the door. Gem immediately answered the door and was shocked to see John stood before her.
"John what are you doing here?"
"Where's Cj?" he said trying to catch his breath
"She's gone out with her friend Mickey"
"Do you know where?"
"Yeah"
LATER
John arrived at the bar where Cj was supposed to be with her friend. He walked in and moved through the crowd trying to find her and he came to a sudden halt as he found her obviously not with her gay friend Mickey as she sat lip locked with a guy as they stood at the bar. John realised he'd lost Cj and backed away slowly and left the club and made his way back to Gems as he had no where else to go.
BACK AT GEM'S APARTMENT
Gem answered the door and could see by the expression on his face things hadn't worked out. He sauntered in and sat on the sofa in a frustrated heap.
"What happened?"
"Are you sure Mickey's gay?"
"Yeah why?"
"Because if the guy she was with was Mickey he sure as hell ain't gay"
"What do you mean?"
"She was sucking the face off some 'Wall Street type'"
"Oh Mickey isn't Wall Street. This guy, what was he like?"
"Clean cut, dark features, power suit…kissing Cj"
Gem opened a draw and took out a photo album she opened the book and handed it to John. He sat up and pointed to the guy in the picture.
"That's him"
"That's Danny"
"Who broke her heart?" he asked making sure
"Yeah, what are you up to Cj?" Gem asked herself
LATER
Cj and Danny were locked in an embrace as they fell into Danny's apartment. Cj ravenously began tearing off Danny's clothes as she backed him into the bedroom where they both fell onto the bed still locked in a deep embrace. Cj pulled away and looked down at Danny and smiled.
"I've been dreaming of this moment" she said
"Me too baby" he replied
Cj opened her purse and pulled out a pair of handcuffs and shook them in Danny's face biting down gently on her lip.
"You up for it?" she asked
"Oh definitely"
Cj climbed off Danny and pointed to the head of the bed. Danny laid himself in the centre of the bed and Cj mounted him she put a cuff on one wrist wrapped it around the spoke on the headboard and fastened it to the other wrist. She then left a kiss on his lips and climbed off him she knelt on the end of the bed and pulled down on his already unzipped pants pulling his briefs down with them. She finally pulled them off leaving Danny in all his glory she threw the pants across the room and then she pulled two silk scarf's out of her purse and started to tie them around Danny's ankle she tied them very tightly.
"Ouch" said Danny as the scarf chaffed him
"I guess these scarf's you bought me are finally coming in useful" she said pulling tight on the final knot.
Cj stood at the bottom of the bed and admired her handy work as she looked at Danny completely naked and bound to the bed. She licked her lips as she crawled onto the bed and slowly made her way up to Danny. She kissed him softly on the lips and pressed herself into his bare chest. She then put her hand under Danny's pillow and pulled out his eye mask. She then saddled Danny and showed him the mask.
"I've got to admit I was always turned on by this"
"Turned on?"
"Yeah I always wished you'd put it on me so I couldn't see anything and that you'd then tease my other senses" Cj could feel Danny's engorged penis beneath her. "Let's see how effective it is" she said placing the eye mask on Danny and adjusting the strap to make sure it didn't fall off.
Danny laid with a huge smile on his face as Cj kissed her way down Danny's chest before making her way down between his legs. She then knelt on the bed and pulled out a key from within her cleavage tied to a string. She then placed the key around the head of Danny's erect penis and made her way off the bed. She pulled out a digital camera and took a photo of the pathetic sight before.
"Cj what was that? Cj?"
"You know what Danny I just remembered I left the oven on" she said turning to leave
"Cj!" he screamed
Cj stopped and looked back "Actually Danny scratch that we both know I don't use my oven let's just say that payback and I have a lot in common we're both bitches you can't handle. Goodbye Danny"
"Cj get back in here and untie me. CJ YOU BITCH!"
"Danny I wouldn't spit on you if you were on fire, in fact I'd probably throw gas on you. But I'm not a complete bitch I left you the key and it's hanging off the only thing you care about" Cj smiled at her work and walked out the apartment with Danny screaming at her as she slammed the door.
"CJ! I'M GUNA KILL YOU"
LATER AT CJ'S APARTMENT
Cj satisfied with herself made her way up her stairs to find Gem stood at her door.
"Hey" said Cj
"Where have you been?"
"Having the best night of my life"
"With Danny?" asked Gem
Cj looked at her friend with confusion as she opened her door and walked inside
"How did you know I was with Danny?" before Cj could give Gem time to answer she continued "Never mind it doesn't matter check this out" she said retrieving the camera from her bag and handing it to Gem
Gem looked at the camera and almost in disbelief she pulled the camera closer to her face
"Oh my God is that Danny?"
"Yep"
"You slept with him?"
Cj stood with her hands on her hips a little disgusted that her friend thought so little of her.
"No!"
Seconds later Gem clicked onto what had happened and with her mouth wide open she looked at the picture once again.
"You? He's there? You left him there?"
"Kinda…" she said sweetly
"You're just going to leave him there?"
"Yeah"
"Cj you can't do that?"
"What happened to the Gem who was pushing me into slashing his tyres?"
"He could be there for God knows how long"
"About ten o'clock tomorrow morning when his cleaning lady turns up"
"Oh Cj that is so…brilliant" Cj laughed "But I thought you were…"
"Getting back with him?"
"Yeah John said he saw you sucking his face off in the bar…"
"I was but only to make him think that---whoa John?"
"Yeah he came to see you. I sent him to the bar I thought you were with Mickey"
"He saw me with Danny?"
"Yeah"
"You're kidding what happened?"
"He came to my apartment to find you I sent him to the bar he saw you and Danny he came to mine and left"
"Left? Where'd he go?"
"They're in Boston"
LATER
A taxi pulled up and Cj emerged the taxi drove away and Cj then walked over the road and made her way into the hotel. Cj approached the reception and asked for Chris' room number.
"I'm sorry ma'am but I can't give you that information"
"Then call him"
"It's three thirty in the morning"
"I know and I've travelled from New York so I am unbelievably tired and irritable. Now Chris is expecting me and you're being a complete pain in the ass. So just call him"
The receptionist called up to Chris' room
"Hello Mr Irvine I have a young lady down here at reception claiming you're expecting her arrival…yes I believe so…yes…ok…right away sir" the receptionist put down the phone and smiled at Cj "Room 465"
"Thank you" she said walking away and making her way to Chris' room.
A Little While Later
"He's really pissed at you. What happened?" asked Chris
"You and Gem are perfect for each other both really nosey people"
"I'm just asking"
"I know but I'd like to talk to John first"
"You think its guna be that easy?"
"There isn't going to be anything easy about it but I've got to try"
Cj kissed Chris on the cheek and left his room she made her way down the corridor to room 441 and knocked on the door. John jolted out of his sleep and looked around the room and the knocking came once again at his door. He got out of bed and unwillingly answered the door. He suddenly became wide awake as he saw Cj stood in front of him. Cj could see the hate in his eyes.
"Hi" she said
"Hey" he replied
The duo stood for a moment just looking at each
"We should talk" said Cj
"We've said everything"
"Just let me in"
John walked away leaving the door open and Cj followed him inside. John pulled on a shirt and sat on the end of the bed with his head in his hands still half asleep.
"I didn't do anything with Danny"
"You were doing enough"
"It's not what you think"
"How do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Because I'd be thinking the same thing"
"It doesn't matter we're not dating"
"I don't want you thinking I replaced you that easily"
"Then what was it?"
"Payback"
"Funny kind of payback"
Cj handed him the digital camera and John glanced at it he then became aware of what he was looking at and sat in shock.
"Are you seriously showing me this?"
"He's still there"
"What?"
"I tied him to the bed like that and left him…immature maybe but made me feel better"
"You tied the poor guy up and left him?"
"Yep"
"What do you want me to say to that?"
"I'm glad you got it off your chest and I'd hate to be the person who finds him?"
John couldn't help but laugh
"I'm sorry for what I did. When I went into that bet I didn't know you were guna be you. I didn't know I was guna fall this hard and I didn't stop the bet because it wasn't about the bet to me. I just loved being with you. I didn't care whether we made it passed the one month mark I just wanted to be with you"
"I'm sorry too. I wanted to hurt a guy so I didn't have to see Danny again and then you were so sweet I couldn't help myself. I just can't get it out of my head"
"What?"
"If you were doing this for a bet in the beginning was the guy I fell for really you?"
"I didn't give you any special treatment. I'm a good guy I always treat ladies with respect and I always do my best to make them happy"
"Respect" she said under breath
"I never disrespected you" he said taking offence "Betting on you was bad but if you hadn't found out I wouldn't have treated you badly I would have continued dating you. And if I felt I had to break things off I would have done it in the nicest possible way. I'm not Randy I don't use them and lose them Cj"
"I know" she replied which lead into long pause "So what now?" asked Cj
"We could go for a really early breakfast and talk"
"I can't"
"Ok we'll order room service and stay here"
"I mean this, I can't do this. I can't…I'm sorry"
"You can't? Why did you bother coming here?"
"To explain about Danny…"
"I don't believe this. You've come here to see me just to tell me you can't do this? Cj that is really spiteful"
"Spiteful?" she asked with shock
"Yeah you come here and you get my hopes up just to dash them. What more do you want Cj? I told you I was sorry. I've apologised enough I explained myself I told you it was never about the bet. Ask Chris he knew, he knew the second I fell in love with you the same as Gem knew you'd fell for me…That guy was me, but the only way I'm going to prove it is if you give me another chance"
"You love me?" she asked stunned by the revelation
John looked at her with frustration "Would I be here now fighting for us if I just wanted sex? Would you have come all this way if you knew there was nothing between us?"
"Do you think this is the real thing?"
"Cj I've had girlfriends before and ended the relationship months and years down the line not feeling this strongly about them. We may not have known each other long but I've known you long enough to know I don't wanna lose you. But if you can't put the stupid bet behind you then what's the use in us even trying I'm not going to spend the rest of my life apologising to you so I guess if you can't do this then you better leave beca---"
Cj pulled John into a deep passionate kiss cutting him off mid-sentence. Cj and John parted from the breathtaking embrace.
"What was that for?" he asked
"This is one screwed up fairytale but I just know we're going to live happily ever after" she said with a huge smile.
John smiled back and pulled her in close to him holding her tight making sure he would never lose her again he kissed her sweetly and then the two fell in one lustful heap on the bed never breaking their embrace as they became entwined in each other hoping they never became untangled again.
Please Read & Review – Thank You
Hey Guys,
This is the final part of my fic. I wanna thank you all for reading and reviewing. Your support and kind words were much appreciated. I have ended this fic here because if I continued with 'what happened next' I could write and write and write...which is great and sometime soon I hope to do a sequel to see where Cj and John and Chris and Gem go from here but at this moment in time I have another fic on the go (A request one for a friend) and I have this other idea hovering in my head which I really wanna try and turn into a fic. The request fic will be posted soon so check back for that and I hope to have my other fic out soon also.
Once again thank you!
Jo
