Chapter 51
Becki was beginning to calm down when John appeared in the doorway to the living room. She didn't see him but Jeff did.
"I've just remembered I left my monkey in the kitchen!" he said before quickly exiting the room.
"Huh?" Bex realised what he had said and looked up to see Jeff's retreating back leaving the room. It was then she noticed John in the doorway.
"Oh" she muttered then turned her attention back to the magazine she was pretending to read.
John sighed, he was in trouble!
"I'm sorry" he said cautiously as he walked over and sat next to her.
"Have you sorted it out?" she asked coldly and John winced
"Yes" Bex looked over the top of the magazine at him to see if he was telling the truth, it was easy to tell when he was lying, his face gave it away. All she found was pleading eyes like a little boy!
Sighing she put the magazine down, he wasn't getting off that easy and neither would Randy when she got hold of him. "What the hell was that about?"
"He started it!" John muttered
"I don't care who started it!" Bex snapped
"I went to apologise for earlier and we started talking about you! I told him about how I cant help but feel jealous when I see you together and its like he has feelings for you or something and then he got all defensive. I could tell by the look on his face that I'm right" John said getting mad again.
"Right about what?" Bex asked, dreading the answer.
"He likes you Bex, more than a friend!"
'I know he does!' Bex thought guiltily
"You don't know that!" she replied hoping her face didn't give it away too.
John caught the brief look on her face and started to worry 'something is going on here' he thought.
"I do know! It was all over his face and when I called him on it he attacked me!"
"Well even if he does, nothing is going to happen" Bex replied with every intention of meaning it, but she still couldn't shake the feeling she had a few nights ago.
She wiped a trickle of blood from his lip were Randy had punched him, John hadn't even noticed he was bleeding!
"Randy may have feelings for me, I don't know, but it's totally obvious he likes Mel, he even got her a TV and cable installed in her room at the hospital! Besides I love you, not Randy"
"I love you too! So am I forgiven?" he smiled sweetly
"Hmmm I still think you should be punished!"
"Really" John grinned
"Eww! You have a sick mind!" Bex replied as John laughed "lets see, how can I punish you?"
"I'll be your slave for the rest of day!" John suggested with a mischievous grin.
Becki smirked "That's actually a good idea"
"Great!" John replied rubbing his hands together
"Oh but your not gonna be my slave!"
"I'm not?" John frowned
Bex laughed "Nah your gonna be Jeff's"
John turned as he heard laughter from the doorway and found Jeff smirking at him "This is gonna be fun!"
Later that night John flopped down on the sofa beside Bex, in a bad mood! Jeff, with a little help from Matt and Joanne had spent the day having John do ridiculous tasks for them. Including making him sing songs and dance round the living room for Bex amusement.
Randy had finally made an appearance and joined in tormenting John until Bex told him it would be his turn the next day, after that he quietly watched the events dreading what they would make him do.
"John will you get me a cup of coffee please!" Jo asked
"Me too" Jeff added
"And me!" Matt called from the hallway.
Becki sniggered as John sighed and turned to her "Just so you know, I'm only doing this coz I love ya!"
"I know" Bex replied sweetly, then added "I'll have a coffee too please"
John shot her an evil look before making his way to the kitchen.
"I'll help ya!" Randy said and followed him.
"Are we cool?" Randy asked as he placed cups in front of John.
"Yeah" John replied without looking at his friend.
Randy thought better of saying anything further about the subject, he didn't want to risk making John even angrier at him.
"Ok" he replied picking up two cups that John had poured coffee into.
John picked up the other two cups and followed Randy back into the living room without saying a word.
After a few more hours of torturing John, Jeff finally said "Ok John, here's your last job for the day"
"What now?" John sighed as Bex yawned and rested her head on his shoulder.
Jeff smirked "Take your girl to bed!"
"At last, something I'm happy to do" John grinned and swept Bex into his arms.
"Night!" Bex yelled as John carried her up the stairs.
"Am I forgiven now?" John asked as he gently placed Becki on the bed.
"Hmm….just one more thing" Bex said as she motioned for John to come closer, when he was near enough she pulled him to her so they were nose to nose.
John smiled as she wrapped her arms round his neck, he wasn't expecting it and almost fell on her as she kissed him passionately. When she pulled away Bex gasped "Ok, now your forgiven!"
Out of breath and still a little bit stunned John replied "Good!" then with a mischievous grin he added
"Can we do that again?"
Smirking she replied "Only if you help me change first"
"Hmmm….I'll help you out of your clothes, but I ain't helping you into any" he replied as he slowly pulled her top over her head.
"But then I'll be cold!" Bex replied in a sweet voice as John carefully pushed her back so she was laying on the bed.
"I'll keep ya warm!" John grinned as he undid her black baggy pants and pulled them off her legs before crawling up her body and kissing her passionately once more.
Becki got lost in his kiss as she wrapped her arms around him, she blissfully revelled in his embrace but was shocked out of it when an image of Dean flashed into her head.
"John…mmm…John stop!" she murmured as she pushed John away from her slightly.
"What? What's the matter?" John asked refusing to move any further away from her.
"I…I'm not ready for this! Sorry" she whispered as John rested his forehead against hers.
"It's okay"
"Sorry" Becki wished she could get Dean out of her head, she was with John, he wouldn't hurt her but all she could think of was Dean and what he had done to her. She just wanted to feel normal again.
"Baby it's okay!" John understood, he'd just have to wait.
"I'm still not helping you into clothes though" John grinned as stood up. He helped her get into the bed properly and jumped in beside her, wrapping his arms around her.
Becki snuggled up to him and sighed, "John?"
"Yes!" he replied, kissing the top of her head.
"When do you have to leave?"
"Tomorrow night, why?"
Becki took a deep breath, best to get it over with! Gingerly she moved over to the bedside table and pulled open the drawer as John watched her.
"Oh!" was all he could say as she moved back to him and held up a box.
John took the pregnancy test kit from her and stared at it before wrapping one arm around Bex.
"You had any symptoms?" he wasn't sure what he should say or do in this situation.
"I'm a couple of days late but the doctor said the stress would cause that. I just want to know but I didn't want to do it without you here"
"Then lets find out" John handed the box back to her.
"What? Now?"
"Yeah, no time like the present" John replied, wanting it over with.
Becki gulped, "Okay"
