A Dallas Jail (3 weeks later)
Angelica walked about pacing her cell; she was fuming, she wondered what her associates were doing to get her out of this hole, not a lot by all accounts. She hated being locked in here. Somehow she would find a way out of her prison and then she would make people pay for this. Her first target was JR Ewing, he had set her up that morning in his office; she wondered if he had turned up late and become a victim to her little present she had left for him, but knowing JR probably not. However he had met his match with her; she was going to bring his little empire crumbling to the ground; by the time she had finished with him, he would be nothing.
Southfork
The sun streaming through the bedroom windows awoke JR, he looked at the sleeping woman by his side; she was still fast asleep; so he gently planted tiny kisses on her bare skin, still her eyes remained closed. JR thought back to their active night and decided that perhaps he had worn her out. Silently he got out of bed and crept into the bathroom hoping not to wake her. After he had gone Sue Ellen opened her eyes and lay in bed listening to the sound of the running water from the shower. Her hand went to her stomach; these past few days she had been feeling queasy but put it down to perhaps she had eaten. If things didn't improve in a few days she would go and see the doctor. She heard the bathroom door open and quickly closed her eyes. JR came out wrapped in his towel; looking towards the bed he sighed at the sight of his sleeping wife. He crawled back onto the bed and snuggled up to her, gently calling her name. Sue Ellen pretended not to hear him. A wicked grin spread across his face as he came up with a plan; knowing that Sue Ellen had the ticklish feet of anyone he had known, he worked his way to the bottom of the bed and lifting up the sheet he began to tickle her feet. Sue Ellen squirmed but refused to open her eyes; JR kept tickling her, suddenly he felt her kick him.
"Ow" he said
Sue Ellen opened her eyes and reached behind her for the pillow; finding it she chucked it at him.
"That's for waking me up!" she said
"You my darlin' were already awake" he said "I knew you were pretending to be asleep"
"Isn't a girl entitled to some sleep around here" she laughed
"You had enough" JR said "Now I want some playtime"
Sue Ellen rolled her eyes "You're incorrigible" she said "Beside you've just had a shower; you don't want to get all sweaty again"
"Actually if it involves working up a sweat with you, I don't mind" he laughed "Beside we can always take another shower"
"And what makes you think that I want you" Sue Ellen said
"Because I'm you loving husband who will do anything to please you" he replied
"Good so let me go back to sleep and finish the dream I was having" she said
"What were you dreaming about?" JR asked
"About my knight in shining armour coming to rescue me from this torturous relationship" she replied
JR looked at her "Are you serious?" He asked "So who was this knight"
"Well actually it was Dusty" she laughed
JR got up from the bed and walked towards the window; was she joking with him or did she still love the cowboy. He couldn't blame her if she did; he treated her better than he ever had done but he really wanted to make up for the past. Sue Ellen noticed the change in his mood and realized that maybe she had gone to far in teasing him. She got out of bed and walked towards him; wrapping her arms around his body. JR sighed at the softness of her touch. JR kept his back towards her. For a few minutes there was silence, finally Sue Ellen kissed the back of his neck.
"Look at me" she said
JR turned around
"Hey I was joking" she said
"Do you still love him; do you ever sleep by my side wishing it was him next to you?" JR asked, turning around to face her.
Sue Ellen looked him in the eye and said "With my hand on my heart, no"
"I wouldn't blame you if you did" JR said "He's treated you a lot better than I ever did"
"Sweetheart, I was only ever with him because I couldn't have you" she replied "I have always loved you and I know that I always will; beside Dusty loves the rodeo, he would never be happy being tied down with a family"
"Is that why you stayed, because you didn't want to go on the rodeo circuit with him" JR said
"JR you are not listening to me; I'm here because I want to be with my two favourite men" she said "JR do you remember the time I left you to go to the Southern Cross?"
"Yes" JR replied
"Well part of me didn't want to stay there; remember when you tried to coax Miss Ellie into taking John Ross on the helicopter with you" she said "Something inside me wanted to get on that helicopter with you; to tell you that I wanted you to take me home and try and sort out our marriage; but I knew that things wouldn't change"
"I don't want to lose you" JR said
"You won't" she smiled "So are you going to make love to me or not?"
JR laughed "I thought you were tired" he said
Sue Ellen kissed him and swiftly removed his towel. Beginning with his lips she began to kiss her way down his body, finally falling to her knees she took him in her mouth and gently began sucking him.
"No…Sue Ellen…..please I won't be able to stand." JR said but she ignored him and carried on with the job in hand. JR closed his eyes and gripped the dressing table for support. Finally Sue Ellen stopped feeling that he was hard inside her; she stood up and taking his hand pulled him towards the bed; laying down she pulled him on top of her and taking his manhood in her hands she guided him inside of her. Finding their rhythm they moved together towards their climax, once they were finished they relaxed into each others arms and held each other tightly.
"Good morning darlin'" Sue Ellen smiled
"It certainly is" JR replied "I just hope every morning is as good as this"
"Come on let's take a shower" she said
JR kissed her "I love you" he said
"I love you too" she replied "So very, very much"
After showering the couple went downstairs for breakfast, and then JR drove John Ross to school before dropping Sue Ellen off at work.
"I wish you didn't have to go to work" JR said as he stopped the car by her office
"And what would you like to do all day" She asked
"How about staying in bed until we have to pick John Ross up from school" JR replied
"Hmm, let sure does sound like fun" Sue Ellen smiled "But unfortunately we have to live in the real world, by the way don't forget that I'm seeing Pam for lunch"
JR groaned "Oh I forgot she was back" he said "What time do you want me to pick you up"
"After you've picked John Ross up from school" she replied "How's Ewing Oil doing"
"Not bad, we've managed to repair most of the damage and things are slowly getting back to normal" he replied
"No crooked deals JR" she laughed "I don't want my family put in danger"
"No ma'am" he replied leaning over to give her a kiss.
"See you later" she said
JR watched her walk away before he drove off; suddenly a thought came to him and he stopped by at the nearest flower shop he could find and brought a dozen yellow roses. He then drove back to Sue Ellen's office. Walking into the reception area of Grayson's research he asked if Sue Ellen was in her office and on finding that she was he knocked on her door.
"Come in" she said
The door opened and Sue Ellen smiled to see JR standing before her.
"Couldn't keep away" she laughed
"What makes you say that?" JR smiled
"Eh, it's about ten minutes since I last saw you" she replied
"Well I suddenly past a flower shop and these beautiful yellow roses were calling out to me to buy them, so I decided I need to find a beautiful woman to give them to; however as she seems to be unavailable I wondered if you would like them" JR grinned
Sue Ellen laughed "They're beautiful" she said
"Sure you wont change your mind about lunch?" He asked
"Sorry, I can't" she replied "But I promise I will make it up to you tonight"
"Mmm, I might just hold you to that" he said
Sue Ellen took the flowers and placed them on her desk; then she wrapped her arms around JR's neck and began to kiss him. She loved this new JR and she desparately hoped that this time he had really changed and she wasn't deluding herself. JR pulled her tightly towards him; enjoying her touch and thinking that this time he was going to do everything in his power to show her how much she meant to him. Finally they broke away.
"Suppose I better be going" JR said
Sue Ellen smiled "If you stay here, I won't get much work done" she said
"Okay I'll pick you up at 3.30pm" he said
"Fine" she replied "Maybe we could take John Ross to a movie and get something to eat in town"
"Good idea!" JR said
"JR!" Sue Ellen said as he opened the door, JR turned around to face her.
"I love you" she said
"I love you too" he replied
After he had gone Sue Ellen sat down at her desk and tried to get started on some work. Unfortunately for her it seemed her mind was on JR. Once again she looked at the flowers JR had just brought her and smiled; things were just about perfect in her life now.
A Dallas Restaurant
Pam and Sue Ellen sat in the restaurant and had just ordered their meal.
"So how's married life?" Sue Ellen asked
"It's fine" Pam replied "We had a really good honeymoon"
Sue Ellen laughed "I bet with a three year old child tagging along" she said "You could have left him with me I think John Ross has missed him"
"I know but Mark and I wanted him with us, we didn't want him to feel left out" Pam replied "Anyway how are you?"
"I'm fine, things just couldn't be better" Sue Ellen smiled
"And JR" Pam asked
"JR is fine, he's being so loving and attentive at the moment" Sue Ellen said
Pam sighed, she knew JR too well "But will it last" she said
"Pam, I know what you think of JR and I'd probably agree with you; but there's a side to him that he doesn't allow anyone else to see, a few weeks back he had a meeting with Angelica at Ewing Oil but he didn't go, he came to the Amusement park with the rest of the family; he's trying to change and that's all I can ask of him" Sue Ellen said
"I'm just worried that he's going to hurt you again" Pam said
Seeing their meal arrive, they stopped their conversation for a moment and after the waiter had finished putting their meal on the table, they thanked him before carrying on with their conversation.
"Pam it's going to be okay" Sue Ellen said "For the first time ever I'm confident that I can trust JR" Sue Ellen replied
Pam smiled "Can I ask you a question?" she asked
"What?" Sue Ellen replied
"What do you see in him" Pam replied
Sue Ellen sighed "I wonder that myself sometimes but there's a magic between us that I just can't find with anyone else I love him I always have; there are times when he can be so tender and loving; he wants us to renew our vows, this time he wants to make a real commitment to me and we both want more children" she said "I can't explain why I keep going back to him, all I know is that I've never loved anyone as much as him"
"That's another thing, I never saw JR as the paternal type" Pam said
"JR loves his son, I think from the moment he was born part of him hoped that John Ross was his, I remember the day that the paternity test came through, the first time JR held John Ross; he didn't know that I was there but I saw the look of love in his eyes as he held the baby for the first time. A few weeks ago at the Amusement park, JR went on every single ride with John Ross even though at times he felt sick. He's also started to take John Ross with him on field trips to the oil sites" Sue Ellen said
"Are you going to let JR take him into Ewing Oil like Jock did?" Pam asked
"No, JR doesn't want that, JR was five years old when he started and that was really too young, I think that's part of JR's problem. However I think John Ross would quit school if he could" Sue Ellen laughed
"I just hope you're right about him" Pam said
"Trust me" Sue Ellen replied "By the way how's Cliff, its awful what happened to Jamie"
"I know, she didn't stand much of a chance" Pam said "The bomb exploded as soon as she opened the door, Cliff is still devastated but he's coping, I think I phoned him every night we were away."
"I miss Jamie too, she was a good friend" Sue Ellen said "This was Angelica's work, she also left a bomb in Ewing Oil, thinking that JR would be there"
"Was anyone hurt?" Pam asked
"No, only Mandy Winger" Sue Ellen said "She went looking for JR; however he wasn't there he was with me"
"Sue Ellen can you honestly be sure it's over between those two" Pam asked
"Yes I can, we both went to see her in hospital and he told her that he didn't want to see her again" Sue Ellen replied
Pam laughed "Okay I'll give JR the benefit of the doubt but if he hurts you again, I'll make his life hell" she said
Sue Ellen smiled "I've missed you, I hope you still come to Southfork, I still want to see my nephew" she said
"Of course" Pam said "Miss Ellie told me that we're welcome there anytime"
"I'm organizing another fund raiser for Grayson's, in fact JR is looking into finding sponsorship for us with his connections in the oil business" Sue Ellen said "So there be another ball coming up"
"If you need any help, let me know however we all know you are the queen of organizing parties" Pam laughed
"Mmm, which reminds me I have to get back to work, we must meet up again soon!" Sue Ellen said
A Dallas Jail
Angelica continued to fume about being locked inside her cell, however she saw dopey the guard come back. She called him that as she knew he wasn't that bright. He unlocked the door and placed a tray of food on a table for her. Angelica looked at the gun he was carrying in his side pocket and realized that it wouldn't take much to relieve him of that piece of equipment, so violently she threw her tray at him. He turned just as the tray hit him and slipped, falling to the ground. Quickly Angelica lifted the gun from him and banged him over the head with it, seeing that he was unconscious she also took his keys from him and walking out locked the door behind her. Now all she had to do was find a way out. Ten minutes later she had found a way to escape and stood outside relishing her freedom, however she had work to do now and her first priority was making JR Ewing and bringing him to his knees. However she needed to get as far away from this jail as she could and find somewhere to hide.
Southfork
JR and Sue Ellen got out of their car. They had spent the evening as a family taking John Ross to see a movie then having dinner together.
"I really enjoyed tonight" JR said
"So did I" Sue Ellen smiled "And I think we've worn our son out" she said as she looked at her sleeping son.
"I'll carry him in" JR replied, reaching into the back seat and gently lifting John Ross out of the car. They walked into the house and were greeted by a worried Clayton and Miss Ellie.
"Thank God you're home" Miss Ellie said
"Why what's wrong" JR asked
"A news report had just said that Angelica Nero has escaped" Clayton said
"That can't be" JR replied
"I'm afraid so JR" Miss Ellie said
JR and Sue Ellen looked at each other, what did this mean?
Sue Ellen & JR's Bedroom
After putting John Ross to bed, JR and Sue Ellen went to their own room and got ready for bed. While Sue Ellen took a shower JR went and sat out on the balcony and looked out across the vast plains of Southfork. For once in his life he was scared of his enemy; Angelica Nero on the loose was a frightening prospect after all 'hell has no fury like a woman scorned' he thought; and he knew she was dangerous, he saw that side of her in Martinique and also in Dallas when she forced him into the car at gunpoint. What was she planning? He desperately needed to be one step ahead of her. He was so deep in thought that he didn't hear Sue Ellen come out of the shower and onto the balcony, she called his name but he didn't answer her; so she went and knelt down in front of him and put her hands on his knees. JR sighed at the sensation of her touch.
"Talk to me" she said
JR looked at her seeing the look of concern in her eyes he smiled and gently touched her face.
"I love you" he said "So very much"
"I know; but quit stalling tell me what you're thinking" she replied
JR lifted her into his lap and she cuddled into him.
"I was just thinking about how peaceful it is out here; everything is so quiet and perfect" JR said
"You're worried about Angelica?" Sue Ellen said
"Sue Ellen, she's dangerous; she scares the hell out of me. The only other time I think that I've ever been this scared was after John Ross was born and I thought I would lose you. I know what she's capable of and I have no idea what she's thinking or what she's planning to do" he replied "I need to be one step ahead of her; I need to protect this family."
"And Ewing Oil" Sue Ellen said
"To be honest, Ewing Oil doesn't concern me at the moment; for the first time in my life I feel like I have a family who love me and they are what's important" he said
Sue Ellen smiled "Your family has always loved you JR; there were just time when we didn't like you" she said "We will get through this together"
"I know what daddy will be thinking now" JR said "His words to me would probably be 'you jackass' JR laughed "He'd be right, I've failed him again"
"JR, will you stop beating yourself up about what your father thought" Sue Ellen said
"I was never good enough in his eyes" JR said "I let him down so many times"
"It doesn't matter anymore" Sue Ellen said holding him tighter. She looked at him and saw the tears in his eyes.
"Why did he love Bobby more than me, what did Bobby have that I didn't?" JR asked "I tried so hard to please him but nothing really worked, Bobby was always the blue-eyed boy"
Sue Ellen sighed "I don't know sweetheart, maybe it was just that Bobby was so much younger than you, that when he came along he wasn't working at Ewing Oil quite so much so had more time to spend with him. However it didn't mean that he loved you any less" she said
JR laughed "Come on Sue Ellen, Bobby got everything he wanted, daddy even forgave him for marrying Pam" JR said
"JR, this is in the past, it's over; none of it matters anymore; I love you, your son loves you; that is all that matters" Sue Ellen said "We can learn from the mistakes of the past and make sure that your son never feels neglected by either of us"
"Do you remember the day I found out he was mine?" JR asked
Sue Ellen smiled "I couldn't believe it when I read the newspaper; that Cliff could be so stupid to tell his father something like that; and if I'm honest…" she said
"What?" JR asked
"JR….I always knew who John Ross' father was from the moment I saw him; he has your eyes, the same steel blue eyes that makes me melt every time I saw them, even though in the early days I couldn't bear to touch him. However I knew that you didn't believe he was yours and while you thought that part of me felt safe. Our relationship was so hostile and with Dusty in my life, I felt that if you didn't know the truth, then when things got too much I could walk out and take the baby with me. Dusty would have brought him up as his own. After the newspaper printed the story I knew things would change, I put on a front with you but I knew that once the blood tests revealed the truth that I would be trapped forever" she replied "I tried to fool myself into thinking that Cliff was the father but deep down I knew it wasn't true"
"I have to admit I was scared; I was absolutely certain that Cliff was the father; I mean we weren't exactly intimate on a regular basis" JR said "I couldn't even remember making love to you within the timescale that you conceived"
Sue Ellen laughed "I'm glad it was so memorable for you!" she said "But like I told you at the time, you came back from Austin one weekend after working out there and we went out for dinner; It escapes me as to why you came home to me instead of one of your girlfriends but I can tell you that it was definitely me you spent that weekend with. Anyway we had both had too much to drink and one thing led to another. I couldn't have been as drunk as you were as I remembered it clearly and then in the morning we slept in, then at lunchtime we took a picnic to the lake and ended up making love down there. I was so happy, you gave me all the love I had been craving for that weekend however the following weekend you were busy" she said
"I can't believe it" JR laughed "After all the years of trying; you finally get pregnant during a drunken fumble"
"I don't know, I'd sooner think it happened down by the lake" Sue Ellen said
"I remember thinking that if Cliff was the father; that once again momma and daddy would see me as a failure and I knew that it would be the end of us and believe it or not I didn't want that. I know I threatened you with the fastest divorce in Texas if Cliff was the father but I really didn't want that" JR said "I remember the feeling of apprehension when the results came through, my hands were shaking and my heart was thumping and then when the results came through I was so happy, I felt I was walking on air and my only thoughts was to see my son"
"I know, I crept upstairs after you and watched as you held John Ross" Sue Ellen said "I think it was at that moment I knew it was right that the truth had come out. John Ross needed his father and even though I hated what it would mean, you needed to know he was yours"
"After daddy died; I was very depressed and the only thing that pulled me through was John Ross, when he was at Southfork at the weekends I used to lay on his bed with him at night and watch him sleep; then I suddenly realized I wanted my family back and not just to get control of Ewing Oil like everyone thought" JR said "I realized that I needed you in my life; that I couldn't survive without you which is why I set about trying to destroy Cliff, I couldn't bear the thought of him with you. Sue Ellen I want you to know and believe this; that when I remarried you, I meant those vows I made, I was so in love with you and if I could turn back time and go back to that day I would only this time I would be completely faithful to you"
"We can't turn back time but we can go forward, like I said we have to learn by our mistakes and not repeat them" Sue Ellen said
"I promise" JR said "This time I'm never going to do anything to risk losing my family"
"You wont" Sue Ellen said "You're stuck with me"
JR pulled her closer to him and kissed her "You're amazing" he said "In one year you've changed so much"
"We both have; now it's time for you to get ready for bed" Sue Ellen said
While JR went to have a shower Sue Ellen crept into her son's bedroom. He was still awake listening to his personal tape recorder.
"Hey you, I thought I told you it was time to go to sleep" Sue Ellen whispered
"Momma, I can't sleep" John Ross replied "Why was Clayton so angry with daddy"
Sue Ellen kissed him "Sweetheart don't worry about that" Sue Ellen said "Everything will be okay"
"Can I come and sleep in your room" John Ross asked
"Hmm" Sue Ellen thought "Only if you promise to go to sleep" she replied "And you're not allowed to snore, I can't put up with both you and your daddy snoring all night" she laughed
"I'll be good" he replied
Sue Ellen lifted him out of the bed and carried him to her room.
"Right just stay there" She said "I'm just going to see your daddy"
Sue Ellen walked into the bathroom with JR's pajamas. "JR, we have a visitor, so I suggest you don't come out without your pajamas on" she laughed
On hearing her voice JR stepped out of the shower and took Sue Ellen in his arms.
"JR!" Sue Ellen whispered "Our son is next door" she laughed
"So" JR said "I promise I'll be quiet" as his hands rolled up Sue Ellen's nightgown.
"You're soaking wet" Sue Ellen said
JR laughed "Well let's feel if you are" he said
"God you are so incorrigible" Sue Ellen said
JR lifted her up and pushed her against the wall of the bathroom; quickly he inserted two fingers inside of her. "Just as I thought, soaking wet just as I like you" he said
Sue Ellen tried to pull away, as much as she wanted him she knew they couldn't do this with John Ross in the next room.
"Stop it" she said, finally breaking free.
JR sighed "Ughhhh, I'll get you back for this" he said
Sue Ellen smirked "That's what I was hoping you say" she winked. "Later I promise"
Sue Ellen walked back into the bedroom.
"Momma, what's daddy doing in there" John Ross said
"Oh he's just being silly" Sue Ellen replied as she climbed into bed.
Putting John Ross between her and JR she held him tightly. "I love you baby" she said
"I love you too momma" John Ross replied
JR came out of the bathroom and looked at John Ross and Sue Ellen cuddled up. He smiled and climbed into bed; putting his arm around both of them, he pulled them closer to him. He desperately needed to keep them safe!
A Warehouse somewhere in Dallas
Angelica sat on the floor of the deserted warehouse, considering her next move. Her contacts had only been able to secure this warehouse for her, however she now had a car and early tomorrow she would receive documents giving her a new identity, however until then she was stuck where she was. Looking around her she cursed, the whole place was damp and smelly and she swore she had just seen two rats pass by. Now, what she had to do was come up with a plan to destroy JR. And the one thing that was most precious to JR was Ewing Oil. By taking Ewing Oil off him, he would be broken. Now she had to find a way to do that.
Southfork the following morning
JR was woken by the sunlight shining through the windows. He looked down at John Ross and Sue Ellen who were still sleeping. He gave a sigh of contentment. John Ross opened his eyes and saw his daddy staring at him.
"Hello daddy" John Ross said
JR pulled him closer to him and kissed his head.
"Hi buddy, did you sleep well" JR asked
"Yes" John Ross replied "What time is it"
"It's 8am and as its Saturday, we don't have to get up" JR said
"Can we go to the park" John Ross asked
"Yes and if you like we can phone your aunt Pam and see if Christopher wants to join us" JR said
"Great daddy, I love you" John Ross replied
"I love you too" JR said
John Ross climbed out of bed "I'm going to get ready" he called as he left the room.
JR turned his attentions to a sleeping Sue Ellen. Gently he began to tickle her feet, knowing how ticklish she was. Sue Ellen tried desperately to ignore him, knowing that she was driving him crazy; she knew they were alone as she had heard John Ross leave, she also knew what was on JR's mind. Finally she surrendered and opened her eyes.
"Good morning" JR said, kissing her
"Good morning to you" Sue Ellen said "And thanks for waking me up!"
"Well you can't sleep all day, it's a beautiful morning and it's such a shame to waste it" JR said
"Right, I better get up" she said, making an attempt to get out of bed
JR pulled her back "Oh no you don't" he laughed "We have some unfinished business"
Sue Ellen laughed "And what could that be Ewing?" she asked
JR kissed her passionately on the mouth, then began rolling her nightdress up. Sue Ellen shook her head and giggled.
"What happens if our son walks back in?" She asked
"He wont now shut up!" JR replied
Sue Ellen helped JR remove her nightdress from her, then she set to work on removing his pajamas, finally when both of them were naked, she climbed on top of him. Reaching down she took his manhood in her hands.
"Put it inside you" JR whispered
"I didn't quite hear that" Sue Ellen laughed
"Sue Ellen, stop teasing" JR said "Or else"
"Or else what?" Sue Ellen said
JR groaned "Just do it please!" he begged
"I love it when you beg" she laughed
Suddenly she released her grip on JR and began to kiss her way down his body; JR lay back loving the sensation her tongue made on him. Finally she found what she wanted and playing special attention to it, she licked it liked an ice lolly. JR began to groan, Sue Ellen laughed and worked her way back up his body. Suddenly JR could not take anymore and flipped Sue Ellen onto her bed. Quickly he entered her and screaming her name spilt his seed inside of her.
"I love you" she said
"Mmmm, I wish we could stay like this all day" JR said
"You don't mind John Ross staying with us last night?" Sue Ellen asked
"No" JR said "It was nice being able to cuddle up to the both of you; I promised him we'd take him to the park today and also we'd ask Pam if Christopher could join us"
"Great!" Sue Ellen said "Have I told you that I love the new you"
"Once or twice!" JR laughed "Come on let's get dressed"
Sue Ellen made a move to get out of bed but something stopped her. For a second she felt lightheaded and queasy. She fell back onto her pillow.
"Are you okay darlin'?" JR asked
"Yes" Sue Ellen replied "I just felt dizzy for a moment"
JR looked at her with concern
"Don't worry" she said "I'm fine"
Two hours later JR and Sue Ellen were sat in a Dallas park watching Christopher and John Ross play. JR moved closer to Sue Ellen and wrapped his arms around her, Sue Ellen laid her head against his chest.
"This is heaven" JR said "All we need now are a couple more children"
"That's a side you never display" Sue Ellen said "I don't think anyone who knows you would realize how much you want a family"
"The family has always been important to me, I guess I just hid it well, but since Bobby has been gone, I realize that what I want more than ever is you and our children" he replied
"I want more children too" Sue Ellen said "And I promise you wont have to wait long"
Meanwhile Angelica stood watching them through binoculars. She made sure she was at a safe distant with no chance of discovery. Seeing the interaction between JR and Sue Ellen gave her an idea, she had a way of bringing JR down and getting Ewing Oil.
"Okay JR, let's see who you love most; your family or Ewing Oil"
A week later
Sue Ellen waited in the doctor's reception. JR was picking John Ross up so she didn't have to worry about hi. Thinking about JR reminded her of how annoyed he was with he this morning when she had refused to tell him where she was going and insisting that she drove to work in her car. It wasn't that she didn't want to tell him but knowing how much he wanted another child she didn't want to get his hopes up. Although the last time she had felt as dizzy and nauseated was when she was pregnant with John Ross. The doctor called her into his office.
"Well I'm delighted to say, Sue Ellen that you suspicions were right and you are indeed pregnant" he said
"Is everything okay?" She asked
"Well as long as you look after yourself I'm sure everything will be fine" he said
"How far gone am I" she asked
"About 7 weeks" he said "I've booked another appointment for you at the hospital in a months time"
"Thankyou" she said
On leaving the doctor's surgery; Sue Ellen thought back to seven weeks ago; it was the time of the fundraiser. She remembered that night so clearly, JR had been the perfect gentleman at the fundraiser even refusing to talk business and then she thought of the time they had had after leaving. Their lovemaking that night had been wonderful; they both promised each other total commitment and a fresh start. Now they were going to have one; a new baby to love and cherish as much as John Ross. For once things were going right. Sue Ellen was so deep in thought that she failed to hear the person come up behind her. As she got to her car, a hand went over her mouth and she felt the feel of steel pressing into her back
"Don't say a word" the voice told her "Or I'll kill you"
Sue Ellen tried to resist but the person held her tighter, she knew it was a woman's voice and reality suddenly hit her. Angelica Nero.
"Step away from the car and do as I say" the voice said
Sue Ellen feared for her unborn baby; she did exactly what she was told. Five minutes later she found herself bungled into the back seat of Angelica's car. Suddenly she felt fear like she had never felt before. Was this is? Would Angelica get revenge on JR by killing her?
Once Angelica had reached her destination she forced Sue Ellen out of the car at gunpoint. Sue Ellen had no option but to do what she was told as it wasn't just her life which was in danger but the life of her unborn child. Angelica led her into the dark warehouse and pushed her to the floor. She then tied up Sue Ellen's hands and legs so that she couldn't move.
"What are you going to do to me?" Sue Ellen asked
Angelica looked at her "Just keep your mouth shut and you'll be safe" she replied "I have to go out for a while but don't try anything"
Sue Ellen looked at her "Please just let me go" she said "I'm……"
"You're what" Angelica asked
Sue Ellen thought for a moment, if she told Angelica she was pregnant would that make things worse for her or not. Deciding it was best not to say anything she answered
"I'm scared"
Angelica laughed "And rightly so" she said "Especially if your husband doesn't give me what I want"
"And what is it you want?" Sue Ellen asked
"For a start Ewing Oil" Angelica replied
"JR will never give up Ewing Oil" Sue Ellen replied
"We'll see" Angelica said "But now it's time for you to shut up"
"I'm thirsty" Sue Ellen said
"Too bad" Angelica said as she exited the warehouse, turning of the light as she went and plunging Sue Ellen into darkness.
Sue Ellen sat very still in the darkness; her throat was bone dry, she also felt sick. Thinking about the new life inside of her she began to cry. She wanted everything to be perfect this time. She had a chance of a new life with JR; he was showing her the love and affection that she had craved for all her married life. She suddenly realized that JR didn't know where she was going; she had told him that she had an appointment but wouldn't say who with. Why had she kept the doctor's appointment a secret from him, maybe because she didn't want him to get his hopes up, knowing how much he wanted another child, but now she saw how stupid that was especially with Angelica on the loose. The warehouse was filthy and there was a peculiar smell; suddenly something furry touched her legs. Rats, 'I'm in a dirty old warehouse, this place is bound to have rats in' Sue Ellen thought 'How long am I going to be in here, what if JR decides he wants Ewing Oil more than me'. Sue Ellen closed her eyes and rested her head against the cold stone wall. She was hungry and thirsty, she hadn't eaten anything since lunch time and that was about five hours ago. She tried to steady her breathing and concentrate on the baby and slowly she closed her eyes
Southfork
JR had arrived home with John Ross at four o'clock and sat waiting by the pool for Sue Ellen to come home. He noticed she had seemed tired lately so after dinner he planned to spend the evening pampering her once they had got John Ross to bed. JR looked towards the pool where John Ross was swimming, the boy seemed happier of late; JR grinned in fact he himself had never been happier; he realized now what a mistake he had made chasing other women when he had the best at home. He had put her through so much and yet she was always willing to forgive him and be there for him when he needed her. He now knew that he only ever really loved her and he would prove that to her for the rest of his life.
The Warehouse
Sue Ellen opened her eyes, suddenly feeling cramp in her legs. By now she was starving hungry and had an uncomfortable feeling in her abdomen; she prayed that nothing was wrong with the baby. She had no idea how long she had been asleep but if felt like a while. Her hands were tied behind her back so she couldn't see her watch. She felt a cold chill go through her body and realized she wasn't alone. She looked up to see a man sitting in a chair on the opposite side of the room.
"Who are you?" she asked
The man walked closer and crouched down in front of her.
"Let's just say I'm your babysitter" he laughed, as he placed one hand on her face.
"Don't touch me!" she said
The man placed his hand on her blouse and undoing the buttons placed one hand inside her blouse; Sue Ellen tried to struggle but it was no use as her hands and feet were tied.
"Please" she said "Leave me alone"
"Hmm; don't know if I can do that, a good-looking woman like you seems too much to resist" he laughed
Sue Ellen screamed and he smacked her hard across the face.
"Now anymore of that and I will do something you'll regret" he said "Just shut up!"
"I'm thirsty" she said "I need water"
"Too bad" he replied "The only water here is the water leaking from the roof when it rains"
"I want to go home" Sue Ellen said
"The man went back to his seat and sat watching her "The only person who can decide whether you go home or not is your husband; if he doesn't give Angelica Ewing Oil then you wont ever see your family again" he said as he picked up the gun from under his chair and aimed it at her.
Sue Ellen's whole body shook; so it was JR's decision whether she lived or died. If he needed Ewing Oil more than her then the life of her and their unborn child would be finished. These past two months JR had told her that he wanted to put his family first before anything but would he be prepared to give up Ewing Oil; the company his beloved father had started for her. Did he love her that much? Sue Ellen felt tears form in her eyes; she needed to believe that JR did love her but something inside her told her otherwise.
Southfork (two hours later)
JR looked at the clock in the living room; it was now eight o'clock and still no sign of Sue Ellen. The family had decided to eat about half an hour ago however JR was not hungry, something was bothering him. Where was Sue Ellen? She had been fine when she left this morning in fact last night had been really good, so why hasn't she come home yet? Who was her appointment with and why was she being so damn secretive? JR was worried that something had happened to her so decided that after putting John Ross to bed he would go out looking for her. His thoughts were disrupted by Clayton.
"JR have you any idea where Sue Ellen is?" Clayton asked
"No" JR replied "All I know is that she had an appointment" JR replied
"Who with?" Clayton asked
"Hell, I don't know she wouldn't tell me" JR said "She just said it was nothing to worry about"
"Have you two had a falling out?" Miss Ellie asked
JR sighed "No, we're fine" he said "In fact things couldn't be better"
Half an hour later JR went upstairs with John Ross and read him a story before bedtime.
"Daddy is mommy coming back" his son asked
JR looked at his son and smiled "Sure she is; she just had to work late" he said "You remember that sometimes she's late home"
"That's why she made me those tapes" John Ross replied
"Exactly, so that you would know that she's here even when she's not" JR said
"Can I listen to a tape now?" John Ross asked
JR smiled and kissed his son "It's getting late buddy, but just this once I'll let you" he said "Good night son"
"Night daddy" John Ross replied
JR shut off the light and looked back at his son, lying in bed with his headphones on. Part of him wished that he could do the same. The only thing he wanted was to hear the sound of her voice and know that she was okay. Where was she? JR just reached the bottom of the stairs when the telephone rang. JR quickly picked it up.
"Sue Ellen?" He said
"Wrong JR try again" Angelica replied
JR's heart sank; he should have know Angelica would try anything to get to him. He should have kept Sue Ellen better protected.
"What do you want?" he asked
"That is for me to know and you to find out" she laughed
"Where's Sue Ellen" JR said
"Oh, I've got one of my men keeping an eye on her" Angelica replied
"If you hurt her, I will kill you" JR said
"Ewing, you are in no position to make threats" Angelica said
"What do you want?" JR asked again.
"You'll find out" Angelica said "But not tonight, I just wanted to let you know that your wife was being taken care off"
"Damn you, tell me now" JR said
"Don't raise your voice to me, my man has got a gun and if I give him the word he will use it on her; that's after he's had his fun with her" Angelicas said "I have to go now but I will contact you first thing in the morning"
JR started to speak again but the line went dead. He walked into the living room where Clayton and Miss Ellie were waiting for him to tell them what the phone call was about.
"That was Angelica Nero" JR said "She has Sue Ellen"
"No!" Clayton "Damn you JR; do you realize how much danger you have put your wife in"
"Do you think I meant for this to happen" JR replied
"What does she want?" Miss Ellie asked
"I don't know" JR said "She wouldn't tell me"
Clayton shook his head in disgust "I'm going upstairs, I don't think I could stand being around you anymore today" he said
Miss Ellie followed him upstairs, leaving JR alone in the living room. JR sat in the chair and put his head in his hands. He felt tears spring to his eyes as he thought about the danger Sue Ellen was in and the fact that it was all his fault. He sat there in silence and let the tears fall; he was really afraid and the only time he could ever remember being so afraid was after the birth of John Ross when he had been in danger of losing Sue Ellen. He knew that he would do anything to get her back; he would pay any amount of money to have her safe.
A couple of hours later Miss Ellie walked downstairs to find JR still sitting in the chair.
"JR it's late" she said
"I can't go to bed" JR said "Momma I love her so much"
"JR, she'll be alright" Miss Ellie said hoping her words would ring true.
"We were so happy" JR said "We were talking about having another child…..I don't know what I'll do if I lose her"
Miss Ellie looked at her son; she saw his tear stained face "JR you need to get some rest"
JR looked at her and knew she was right. He had to be strong for both Sue Ellen and John Ross. Reluctantly he followed her upstairs.
Southfork the next morning
JR was woken early by the ring of the telephone next to his bed. Quickly he reached for it.
"Good morning JR and how are you this morning?" he heard the voice of Angelica say. "Found anyone knew to sleep with"
"Stop playing games Angelica, what do you want" he replied
"First there must be no police involved, if I get a hint of them Sue Ellen will die, I promise you that" she said
"Okay" JR sighed "What else"
"Do you really love her?" Angelica asked
"Yes" JR said "More than anything"
"Are you absolutely sure about that" Angelica said
"What is this twenty questions" JR replied angrily.
"Careful JR, remember I hold the power now" Angelica said
"Just tell me what you want" he said
"It's really quite simple, Ewing Oil" Angelica said
"What?" JR replied
"I will give Sue Ellen back if you give me Ewing Oil" Angelica said "Let's really see who you love most; you have twelve hours to decide; but I will keep my promise if you choose Ewing Oil your wife dies"
JR remained silent
"Also JR, remember no police" Angelica said "The choice is yours!"
With that last remark the line went dead.
The Warehouse
Sue Ellen was awoken by a door slam nearby; she opened her eyes and for a moment couldn't remember where she was. She had a restless night and still felt exhausted; she also felt sick. She looked up and saw Angelica standing over her.
"Here" she said putting down a plate of bread and a glass next to Sue Ellen.
"What is this" Sue Ellen said
"Bread and water; not exactly what you're used to but it will have to do" Angelica replied
Sue Ellen looked at it as if it was poison.
"Don't worry, its eatable" Angelica laughed "I'm not going to kill you yet, you're too useful at the moment"
"What do you mean?" Sue Ellen asked
"Well, I had a nice little chat with your husband this morning; I told him that he had a choice; that he could save you by giving me Ewing Oil or he can keep Ewing Oil and I'll kill you" Angelica replied
"What did he say?" Sue Ellen said
"Not a lot; he's still thinking about it" Angelica smiled "In fact he has under twelve hours to decide"
Sue Ellen remained silent; she didn't even want to think about what JR would do. Part of her wanted to believe that he wanted her more than Ewing Oil but something inside her told her that he would never give up Ewing Oil even if her life depended on it. She felt tears in her eyes and her thoughts went to the unborn child developing inside her. The child she wanted more than anything; she wanted to share this pregnancy with JR, to have him beside her, supporting her unlike the last time she had been pregnant. She realized that her life was now in his hands and she had to trust and believe in him.
"Can you untie my hands?" Sue Ellen said "I can't eat with my hands behind my back"
"Alright, but you try anything and I'll send one of the guys in to deal with you" Angelica replied
Angelica untied her and started to walk out the door. As she opened the door she stopped and turned around.
"Don't try anything" she said
Sue Ellen sat alone in her cell; the smell of damp was terrible; she also felt terribly cold. She looked at the food on the floor and felt sick; not wanting to touch it. However she knew that she had to eat if not for her sake then for her baby's. Slowly she picked up the plate and started to eat the bread. It felt good; it had been ages since her last meal; she then took the glass and began to drink. After she had finished she leaned back against the wall and closed her eyes. Her hands went instinctively to her tummy; wanting so much to protect the new life inside her; the tears once again formed in her eyes.
Southfork
JR had stayed in his room until he knew he was alone in the house. Pam had picked John Ross up to take him to school and Miss Ellie and Clayton had gone into town. JR couldn't face seeing anyone this morning especially not his son. How could he tell John Ross that his mother's life was in danger and it was his entire fault? Twelve hours was all the time he had to come up with a plan to save Sue Ellen; after going downstairs JR decided to take a walk around the pastures as he had a lot to think about. Finally he reached the treehouse and Bobby's grave. He remembered the last time he had come up here with Sue Ellen; they had spent ages talking and holding each other. He sat down at the tree and looked at the treehouse on top of it. He smiled as he thought about the times after they had first met; he would leave little notes and flowers for her at the stables telling her to find him; she would then take the horse he had brought for her and would ride up to the treehouse to find him. His yellow rose of Texas; his one true love the only woman who had ever really loved him for himself and not because he was the mighty JR Ewing. He thought about how they would spend ages sitting in the treehouse talking; he could talk to her about anything; she understood how he felt about his daddy and not being his favourite son; she just used to sit listening to him; holding his hand trying to calm his fears, telling him that she loved him. Throughout their marriage when things were good between them; Sue Ellen had been his rock; always standing firm on his side no matter whether he was right or wrong. The times she wasn't there for him had been his own fault. He laughed when he thought about the times in the treehouse; how prim and proper she had been when they first met. So many times he had wanted to make love to her but she had always stopped before they went too far; she wanted to wait until they were married. It had driven him mad; no woman had ever denied him what he wanted but she had. He smiled when he remembered that Jock had built the treehouse for Bobby; but he was sure he had better memories of the place than he had. Getting up JR walked towards the lake; another favourite place for him and Sue Ellen. He remembered how she used to lay with her head in his lap while he read to her Shakespeare or poetry. She told him how much she loved him reading to her; how much his voice soothed her. She always managed to make him feel special; she still did. These past six months he had only wanted her; she filled his dreams even when he was laying in bed next to Mandy after making love to her. Thinking how so many nights he had made love to Mandy wishing it had been Sue Ellen. He thought back to the night of the fundraiser; that had to be one of the best nights of his life. Sue Ellen had looked stunning and so confident the way she had organized the event and how she had people eating out of her hand. When Sue Ellen asked for money for research people gave; noone could resist her charm. Mark Graison knew what he was doing when he asked her to be his Public Relations Officer and Chief Fundraiser; she was amazing and she was his; she would do anything for him. They had spent most of that evening in each others arms dancing, holding each other; breathing in each others scent then finally they had made it home and into bed. Their love making that night had been wonderful; both had given themselves to each other completely; JR had finally managed to open up his heart and let her have him completely; something had always held him back, he never allowed himself to use the word 'love' always feeling that he was unworthy of love; but Sue Ellen had taught him otherwise; that night he allowed himself to open up to her; to tell her that he loved her. Looking into her eyes that night, he had told her that he loved her and was willing to make a total commitment to her, forsaking all others he would be faithful to her forever. He remembered the look in her eyes when he had made that promise; it was a look of total love JR looked at his watch, it was now two hours since Angelica's phone call; he had ten hours before she would call. He looked up to the sky and for the first time in his life he knew what was important.
"God, I love her, more than life itself" he said to the lake before him "I can't lose her"
Reluctantly leaving the place that held happy memories for him, he returned back to the house. His priority was to get Sue Ellen back but he also wanted to make sure that Angelica didn't have Ewing Oil; he needed to speak to Harry McSween. He phoned Harry and told him to meet him at Southfork within the hour. JR made a second phonecall to Harve Smithfield the family lawyer. It was time for action, every second was precious; in ten hours time he wanted Sue Ellen back where she belonged, in his arms.
An hour later Harry and Harve sat in the den with JR.
"JR we have to get the police involved" Harve said "Angelica is dangerous, there's a warrant out for her arrest"
"I can't risk Sue Ellen's life like that" JR said "If Angelica even smells a police officer I know she'll kill Sue Ellen"
"It's a threat JR" Harve said
"Listen, all I need for you to do is to arrange a 'legal' document which authorizes the handover of Ewing Oil to Angelica" JR said
"Are you serious?" Harve said "Your father's will states that only a Ewing can own Ewing Oil
"Yes and only a Ewing can give it away" JR said
"JR your father worked hard to build up that company" the lawyer stated
"I'm not prepared to risk Sue Ellen to save Ewing Oil" JR said "I want her back safe and sound"
"Okay I'll get the papers ready and be back here within two hours" Harve said
"Thankyou" JR replied
After the man had left JR went to the bar and poured him and Harry a drink.
"So what's the plan JR?" Harry said
JR sighed "I can't get the police involved but that doesn't mean that you and some of your good old boys cant be involved" he said "However whatever we decide to do has to be done after Sue Ellen is back with me, her safety is the most important thing here"
"Okay so arrange a meeting with her" Harry said "Once you've spoken to her, let me know where the meeting is and I'll turn up with a few of my men"
"But you stay out of sight until the deal is done" JR said "There are no second chances with Angelica, I know her too well"
"Once you and Sue Ellen are well out of the way; we will go in and deal with her and her men" Harry said
"Anyway you can" JR said "And I mean that, do what ever you have to do to get rid of her, I don't care what it takes"
"Okay" Harry said "I need to go and make a few calls, I'll phone you later"
JR heard a car drive up the driveway.
"That will be momma and Clayton; I think we need to close this meeting now" JR said
"Don't worry, I've never let you down before have I" Harry said
JR shook his head and walked him outside. JR watched Harry drive away and walked over to Miss Ellie and Clayton.
"Any news on Sue Ellen?" Clayton asked
"Angelica telephoned early this morning" JR said "She's going to call me in a few hours time"
"What does she want?" Miss Ellie asked
"Ewing Oil" JR said "Or she'll kill Sue Ellen"
"JR what have you done" Clayton said
"Clayton its okay, Harve is going to get the papers ready" JR said
"You mean you're gong to give her what she wants" Miss Ellie said
"I have no choice" JR said "In order to get Sue Ellen back; I need Angelica to believe that I'm giving up Ewing Oil"
"JR I'm warning you..if anything happens to Sue Ellen…" Clayton said
"Clayton, I want her back, I love her so much that I'm not going to let anything happen to her" JR said
"John Ross is staying with Pam tonight" Miss Ellie said "Pam will return him tomorrow morning"
"And I promise you, his mother will be back by then" JR said
"I hope so JR" Clayton replied
Eight hours later, the telephone rang. Miss Ellie and Clayton looked at each other as JR stood up to answer it.
"Angelica" JR said
"Well JR what is it to be" Angelica said
"I want to speak to Sue Ellen" JR said
"I'm afraid she's a bit busy at the moment entertaining one of my men" Angelica laughed
JR took a deep breath "If you hurt her; there's not a hiding place on earth that will keep you safe from me"
"Relax" Angelica said "I want to know your decision"
"Okay you can have Ewing Oil, but I want a guarantee that I will get Sue Ellen back at the same time" JR said
"Okay" Angelica said "But no funny business"
"Where and when" JR said
Angelica thought for a moment "I'll meet you at Ewing Oil in two hours time, but I want you to make sure that there is noone else in that building, no security guards, no police, just you and me" she said
"And Sue Ellen" JR said "If she's not with you, there's no deal"
"Two hours JR and just remember my threats are serious, if I have to kill your wife I will" Angelica replied.
After getting off the phone JR phoned Harve and arranged for him to drop off the paperwork to him, then he telephoned Harry and told him the plans. JR then sat down, two hours seemed like forever. He prayed nothing would go wrong, he wanted Angelica out of their lives forever. However the most important thing to him was getting Sue Ellen back.
The warehouse
Sue Ellen found herself drifting in and out of consciousness; trying desperately to keep alert but she felt overpowered by a sense of weariness that she was unable to fight. Her hands once again went to her stomach where her unborn child lay; blissfully unaware of what was going on in the outside world. Sue Ellen's thoughts wandered to John Ross; even though it had only been a day she missed him so much and longed to hold him in her arms. She thought of the time that she was pregnant with him; the pain she felt at being rejected by both JR and Cliff; she drank herself to oblivion just so that she didn't have to think about her feelings. Now she realized how much damage she could have done to her child. She put both of their lives in danger, touching her stomach she now considered that once again her unborn child's life was in danger, she was in danger and the only person who could help them was JR. Sue Ellen closed her eyes and visualized a picture of JR; the man she had loved all her life; the man who had finally made her dreams come true and promised her total commitment; however if it was a choice between her and Ewing Oil which would he choose? The only person who could answer that would be him and she knew that in a few hours his choice would be known. She didn't think JR really understood how much she truly loved him or realized that she would do anything for him; these last few months she had seen a different side of him; he worked so hard to convince her that he had changed that he wanted her and only her; she thought back to the night in the kitchen when he told her that Mandy was determined to stay in Dallas but he informed Mandy that he didn't care what she did; she remembered him telling her that night that he would never take her for granted again and then just before he left; he kissed her, such a gentle loving kiss; something inside her had softened and she knew that she didn't want to fight her feelings for him any longer; she loved him and he wanted to love her. If she got out of here alive, she vowed she would make a better life for her, JR and their children; especially John Ross. She felt so guilty when she thought of the hell they had put that child through with their volatile marriage. Things were going to be very different. Her thoughts were interrupted by the door opening; she saw a crack of light invade the darkness. She heard the sound of footsteps walking towards her. She looked up and saw her jailer standing before her; Angelica looked at her and smiled.
"Get up, it's time to leave" she said
"Where are we going?" Sue Ellen said
"Seems your husband has made a choice" Angelica said
"What…….what did he say?" Sue Ellen asked
"You'll find out, now move!" she replied
Sue Ellen tried to get up but her legs gave way; causing her to fall back down again. She felt dizzy and sick. Angelica pulled her to her feet. She called the two men who were working with her to get the car while she pulled Sue Ellen outside. Having got her in the car she told one of the men to drive.
"Where to?" the man inquired
"Ewing Oil" Angelica replied
"So what was his choice" Sue Ellen heard the other man say
"That's what we're going to find out!" Angelica said
"Well before you kill her, can I entertained her" the man who was driving said "It's been a long time since I had me some fun"
"Just drive!" Angelica replied
Sue Ellen sat quietly in the back of the car; she felt cold. Silently praying that JR really did mean it when he said he loved her.
Ewing Oil
JR was half an hour early arriving at Ewing Oil. The place was deserted; not even a security man was on guard. JR had done everything Angelica had asked; he had to play along just until he got Sue Ellen back. He looked around the silent, dark building; it gave him an odd feeling. He remembered another night a few years back when he had been working late in the office; that night he had been shot three times by an unknown assailant, the same thing had happened to Bobby a few years later. What was it about this building? He went upstairs into his office, suddenly he felt cold; a shiver ran down his spine; he felt as though he was being watched. "Stop it!" he told himself "There's noone here" but still he couldn't shake the eerie feeling. He walked into his office and sat down on the chair behind his desk; he picked up Sue Ellen's photograph which was sitting on the desk, the same picture that had been on his desk for so many years. He thought to himself how funny it was that with all the women that had been in his life; it was Sue Ellen's photograph that took pride of place on his desk. He rested his head back against the chair and closed his eyes. Time was ticking slowly; every minute seemed to last eternally, he'd only been here a few minutes but it seemed like longer. He held the photograph close to him; he thought about the time Sue Ellen and he had spent together these past few months; they definitely were making up for lost time. Maybe when he got her back they needed to get away from Dallas; just her, him and John Ross and be a family. He couldn't remember when they last took a family holiday if ever. JR looked down at his watch, another twenty minutes to go. He needed to see Sue Ellen; to hold her in his arms and wiped away the nightmare of the last 24 hours; however he was slightly worried about she might turn against him after this incident. She'd be as mad as hell at being held captive by Angelica for 24 hours; how was he going to convince her that it wasn't his fault. However the more he thought about it the more he realized that it was his fault; if he hadn't got involved with Angelica none of this would have happened. The night of the fundraiser they had made a total commitment to each other and from this moment on he vowed he would honour that commitment; making sure that everyday in his words and his actions he would show her that he truly loved her. The ring of the telephone jolted him out of his thoughts; two rings and the phone went dead; Harry's signal that Angelica was on his way; also meaning the Harry was close but not closed enough to be discovered. JR got up from the chair and looked out into the dark night. All he could see were shadows. He heard the door to the reception area open and stood waiting for someone to appear.
"All alone JR" he heard Angelica say
He swung round to face her
"Where's Sue Ellen?" he asked
"All in good time; my men are taking care of her" Angelica said
"If they hurt her, there wont be a hiding place for them" JR said
"You're threats are empty JR; I'm holding the cards now" Angelica laughed
JR reached into his desk and pulled out the deeds to Ewing Oil, Angelica reached for them. JR pulled back his hand.
"Give them here JR" Angelica said
"I want to see Sue Ellen" he replied
"The papers first" Angelica demanded
JR looked at her. Someone once said that the female was the most deadly of the species; now he saw that it was true. There was nothing Angelica wouldn't do to get what she wanted, even murder.
"JR the papers!" Angelica said
JR looked at the papers in his hands. If his plans failed and Harry didn't manage to pick up Angelica then Ewing Oil would be lost forever. Could he really handover his daddy's legacy like that; but in a flash he saw an image of Sue Ellen standing before him; the outstretched arms inviting him to hold her; the look of love in her eyes, a look he had never seen from anyone else in his life. Instantly he knew this was the right thing to do. He handed Angelica the papers.
"Now give me Sue Ellen" he said
Angelica smiled and walked towards the door.
"Angelica!" JR shouted
Ignoring him she walked out; JR felt himself hold his breath, had she tricked him? Had he now lost everything?
Five minutes past; JR felt his heart in his mouth. What was going on where was Angelica and more importantly where was Sue Ellen. He slumped back into his chair, putting his head in his hands he felt the tears form in his eyes. He had never wanted anyone as much as he wanted her at this moment, just to see her standing before him; even if she hated him. Now what did he do. The door to the office opened, JR looked up, his heart pounding.
"JR"
He got out of his seat and walked towards the door towards the woman standing in front of him. In slow motion he took her in his arms and finally he lost control of his emotions.
"Sue Ellen I'm so sorry!" he cried
Sue Ellen held him tightly; gently soothing him trying to calm him. She should be the one like this not him but now she was free she felt an overwhelming sense of peace. Now was the start of their new life; she wanted to tell him about the baby but first of all she needed to get home; away from this place; away from Angelica. They were interrupted by the sound of Angelica's voice. The couple broke apart and looked at Angelica standing there with her men.
"Boys, kindly escort Mr. and Mrs. Ewing out of the building "she said
The men moved forward but JR stopped them.
"Either one of you touch us and I'll rip you to pieces" he said
"Get out of my office JR" Angelica said
JR took hold of Sue Ellen's hand "Are you ready to go home?" he asked
"Yes" she replied
Together they walked out of the office and into the elevator. Once inside Sue Ellen turned to JR and said
"Are you really going to let her get away like that?"
JR looked at her "All in good time darlin'" he replied
They walked out of the building and were greeted by Harry McSween.
"Is she still in there?" Harry asked
"Yes" JR said
"And this is the only way out?" Harry said
"Of course" JR said
Harry motioned his men to stand guard on each side of the exit. Three men on each side there was no way that Angelica would get out of here free.
"We'll take care of it from here" Harry said
"Whatever it takes Harry" JR said
"Maybe we should have a little fun with them beforehand"" Harry said
"Harry, I just want you to get rid of them permanently" JR said
Sue Ellen and JR then walked to his car, after getting in JR turned to Sue Ellen
"Are you okay?" he asked
Sue Ellen sighed "Fine…just so tired" she replied
JR reached for her hand and squeezed it "It's over" he said "I promise Angelica will never come near you again"
Sue Ellen rested her head back on the headrest and closed her eyes. She was exhausted; the past twenty four hours had really taken it out of her; she just wanted to go home; have a bath and some decent food. Slowly she began to drift off to sleep. JR sneaked a look at her; she looked pale; he wanted to ask her what had happened and if anyone had harmed her but he was too afraid. He put his hand on her leg and gently rubbed it but she was fast asleep and didn't respond. Would things go back to how they were before the kidnapping? JR wondered or had things changed? Would Sue Ellen blame him for what had happened, would she go back to sleeping in her old room? He hated the idea of that but knew it might be a possibility once the full effect of what had happened hit her. The drive back to Southfork was quiet, Sue Ellen didn't stir once and JR was left with his own thoughts and fear. On arriving back at the ranch JR stopped the car and gently stroked Sue Ellen's cheek.
"Honey, we're home" He said gently
Sue Ellen opened her eyes "Thank God" she said
JR got out and walked around her side of the car, opening the door for her. As she got out she felt light headed and stumbled slightly. JR caught her before she fell. They walked into the house and were greeted by Clayton and Miss Ellie greeted them as they walked into the living room. Miss Ellie walked up to Sue Ellen and hugged her.
"Sue Ellen I'm so glad you're home" she said
"Me too" Sue Ellen replied "Where's John Ross?"
"He's with Pam" Miss Ellie answered "But he'll be back in the morning"
"I can go and get him if you want" JR said
Sue Ellen shook her head "No, he'll be in bed by now" she said
Clayton walked over to her "We were so worried about you" he said
"I'm fine" she said "I'm just so glad to be home"
"Would you like something to eat" Miss Ellie asked
"Yes please" Sue Ellen replied "But first of all I need a bath"
"How about I bring you something up in half an hour" Miss Ellie said
"Okay" Sue Ellen replied
"Do you want some help getting upstairs" JR asked
Sue Ellen looked at him "No, I'm fine; I'd appreciate spending some time on my own" she said
JR nodded and watched as she walked upstairs alone. He longed to go with her but knew that he needed to give her some space. Suddenly he felt so alone; all he wanted to do was hold her in his arms and make love to her. Silently he walked out of the living room and into the den; closing the door behind him he went and sat down.
Sue Ellen and JR's room
Sue Ellen got into a hot soapy bath; this felt so good. Part of her had wanted JR to join her but she knew that if she had let him one thing would have led to another and she just needed a little rest before she let JR have his way with her. She suddenly realized that she hadn't told him about the baby, she knew he was going to be so happy; it was the one thing that he had always wanted; another child. This time her pregnancy was going to be so different; she was determined to take care of herself actually no; forget that; she was determined to let JR take care of her. She remembered how things had been during her pregnancy with John Ross; after JR found out about Cliff, he had totally rejected her; hadn't even attempted to be nice to her. She closed her eyes and sank back further under the bubbles. This was perfect; just a shame she hadn't let JR come and scrub her back for her.
The Den
JR sat in the den alone; he was unsure of what to do. Sue Ellen didn't want him around, in fact at this precise moment she was probably moving back into her room. How did he let this mess happen, he should have taken care of Angelica sooner. The telephone rang and he picked it up.
"JR" the voice said
"Harry, Where are you!" JR replied
"We have Angelica and her men safely tucked away" Harry replied
"How did it go?" JR asked
"Let's just say we had the element of surprise" Harry said "They didn't suspect a thing"
JR laughed "You are sure they won't escape" he said
"JR; they're safely locked away with three armed guards watching them, they have no chance" Harry said
"Okay, give me the details of where they are and I'll pay them a little visit tomorrow" JR said
"I thought you wanted them got rid of" Harry said
"I do; but not before I've paid them back for what they did to my wife" JR said
Harry told him he would pick him up at the ranch in the afternoon and take him to where Angelica was being held.
"One more thing" JR said
"What's that" Harry asked
"No food or water tonight or tomorrow" JR said "I mean it Harry; I want them starved"
JR put down the phone and put his hands behind his head. Angelica and her men had better enjoy their last night on earth because JR was going to make sure that after tomorrow they were history.
Sue Ellen and JR's room
Sue Ellen had got out of the bath and dressed in her nightgown; wrapping her warm robe around her. She lay quietly on the bed, thinking about JR and how much she loved him, wanted him. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in" she said
Miss Ellie appeared carrying a tray "I brought you some food" she said
Sue Ellen sat up "Thankyou" she said
"It's just some soup and bread, I thought that you wouldn't want too much this time of night" Miss Ellie said
Sue Ellen smiled "Home made soup is perfect this time of night especially if you made it" she replied "By the way where's JR"
Miss Ellie laughed "I have a feeling he's feeling a little rejected" she said "He's been in the den for the last half hour"
Sue Ellen smiled
"Is everything okay Sue Ellen" Miss Ellie asked "I mean between you and JR"
"Miss Ellie I promise you everything is fine" Sue Ellen said
"I think JR is worried that you might be moving back into your own room" Miss Ellie said "I must admit I did wonder"
"Miss Ellie JR and I made a total commitment to each other; nothing has changed" Sue Ellen said "I'm going to make things better than they've ever been; I'm going to do everything in my power to make up for the bad times"
"I just don't want to see John Ross torn apart again" Miss Ellie said
"It won't happen; I have everything I've ever wanted" Sue Ellen said "I love your son more than anything in this world, I always have and John Ross is a product of that love. I know things have been bad for John Ross and I feel so guilty about how he's been torn apart by two volatile parents but the one thing he has always had is our love; I heard him tell you not so long ago that he knew that we weren't really together; that it was only an act but things are going to be so different. From this moment on our son is going to be brought up by two parents who love each other and are not afraid to show it"
Miss Ellie smiled "You know how JR is about showing his feelings" she said
"I know but he's willing to learn; he's begun to open up to me and I know I can break down those walls he built between him and emotions" Sue Ellen said
"So you wont be needing your old room" Miss Ellie said
"Ahh, I didn't say that!" Sue Ellen laughed
"But you just said everything was fine" Miss Ellie said
Sue Ellen laughed "It is but I want to redecorate that room"
"Why" Miss Ellie asked
"To create a nursery" Sue Ellen smiled
Miss Ellie looked at her "Sue Ellen are you.."
"Pregnant" Sue Ellen said "Yes"
"Does JR know" Miss Ellie asked
"No I'm going to tell him when he manages to come up here" Sue Ellen laughed
Miss Ellie kissed and hugged her "That is the best news I've heard all week" she said
"I know" Sue Ellen said
"The kidnapping…..nothing happened..I mean you and the baby are okay?" Miss Ellie asked
"We're fine" Sue Ellen said
"I'll let you get something to eat, you sure I can't get you anything else" Miss Ellie asked
"Only JR" Sue Ellen laughed "Please don't say anything to him"
"I promise" Miss Ellie said "I'm so happy for you and JR and I'm just so glad that he's finally woken up to what a wonderful wife he has"
Miss Ellie went back downstairs and Sue Ellen finished her meal.
The Den
Miss Ellie walked into the den and saw JR slumped in his chair.
"What are you doing in here" she asked
"Just had some business to take care of" JR replied
"No you're not; you're hiding just like you did when you were little and you thought you were in trouble. You used to find a hiding place and stay there until you felt everything was safe" she laughed
"Sue Ellen doesn't want me" JR said "She hates me for what happened to her"
"What makes you say that?" Miss Ellie asked
"You saw her when she went upstairs; she wouldn't let me near her" JR replied "I've ruined everything, we were talking about renewing our vows at Christmas but now I guess that wont be happening"
"So why aren't you up there trying to talk to her" Miss Ellie asked
"There's no point" JR said
"You're going to have to talk to her soon" Miss Ellie said
JR sighed; he knew she was right but he didn't feel up to a confrontation with Sue Ellen. Miss Ellie walked to the door and turned around.
"Just talk to her JR" she said as she left the room.
Half an hour later; JR plucked up the courage to go upstairs. He opened the door of his room and found it empty. He checked to see if Sue Ellen was in the bathroom but that too was empty. He knew where he would find her and walked to the room opposite. Gently he knocked on the door.
"Come in" came the reply
JR walked in to find Sue Ellen standing near her dressing table. JR went and sat on the bed.
"How was your bath?" he asked
"Fine" she said "And I thoroughly enjoyed Miss Ellie's homemade soup"
JR looked around the room "Are you moving back in here?" he asked
Sue Ellen looked at him; he had that little boy lost look on his face that she found so irresistible.
"Thought I might redecorate" she said
JR's heart sank; so this was the end; Sue Ellen moving back into her old room, their newfound relationship over. Sue Ellen walked over to the bed and laid down beside him. JR looked at her, what was she thinking? he wondered. Sue Ellen looked at him she was enjoying teasing him. Finally she put her lips to his and kissed him.
"How does Winnie the Pooh wallpaper sound to you" she whispered in his ear.
"What?" JR said
"I said how does Winnie the Pooh wallpaper sound to you" she laughed
"Sue Ellen…." JR started but she kissed him before he could finish.
"Does this mean?" JR asked
Sue Ellen smiled "I'm pregnant!"
JR laughed "Oh God……you are amazing; I love you so much" he said
"Does this mean you're happy?" she asked
"I am the happiest person alive" he said "All my dreams have just come true"
"You still haven't answered my question" she laughed
JR kissed her "Winnie the Pooh wallpaper sounds great!" he said
"I thought so that way it's doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl" Sue Ellen said
"When is it due?" JR asked
"In about seven months" Sue Ellen replied
JR mentally counted back eight weeks; Sue Ellen saw his brain working.
"That means you conceived the night of the fundraiser" he said
"Well at least you remembered this time" she laughed
"How could I forget that night; it was so special" he replied
"I know" she said
"Sue Ellen when you went upstairs I thought things were finished between us; you didn't want me with you" he said
Sue Ellen lifted his face to her "JR I wanted you but I needed to get some rest and I knew if I let you come into the bathroom with me the last thing I'd get is rest" she laughed "I love you"
"I thought you hated me because of what happened with Angelica" He said
Sue Ellen shook her head "No, how could I hate you when I'm carrying your child inside me" she said
JR put his hand on her stomach "This time will be different" He said "I will be with you every step of the way"
"You better" she said "And that includes helping me decorate this room"
"If we use this as the nursery it means you no longer have a bedroom" JR said
"Oh I have a bedroom, it happens to be yours too and I'm not planning on leaving there ever" she said
JR tenderly kissed her; his hands went inside her robe and he parted it; suddenly he stopped what he was doing.
"Let's go back to our room" he said
"No" she said as her hands traveled down to his trousers. JR removed her robe and rolled her nightgown up; Sue Ellen lifted her head so that he could remove the gown completely. He then worked his way down her body; stopping at her stomach and tenderly kissed it. Sue Ellen watched him; she felt so relaxed and happy. JR carried on down her body finding her womanhood he gently sucked on it. Sue Ellen moaned in ecstasy
"Ohh JR I want you" she said
JR continued to suck on her; Sue Ellen opened her legs wider allowing him better access to her, JR inserted two fingers inside of her and moved them around. Sue Ellen bucked off the bed; she didn't know how much more she could take; JR then worked his way back up her body; Sue Ellen's hands went to the zip on his trousers; she was desperate to find what she wanted. JR guided her hand to his manhood and she gently stroked it.
"That feels so good" he said
She increased the pace of her stroking; JR felt himself getting more and more aroused; he wanted to be inside of her. He got up of the bed and removed his trousers and the rest of his clothes. He lay back down on the bed and Sue Ellen moved on top of him. Taking him in her hand she guided him inside of her then slowly they found their rhythm. Sue Ellen increased her pace as she rode him wanting to take them to the point of no return. Finally JR could take no more and pulled her hips down onto him allowing himself to go further inside her. Finally they climaxed; JR screamed her name telling her he loved her. When they were finished they lay wrapped up in each other, neither one wanting to let go off the other.
"That was so good" JR said
Sue Ellen kissed him; her hand still playing with his manhood.
"I love you" she said
"I'm going to make everything perfect" JR said "And don't worry Angelica is going to pay for what she did to you"
Sue Ellen held him tighter "Hey why don't we get dressed and go downstairs and tell Miss Ellie and Clayton about the baby" she said
"I want a couple more minutes with you" he replied
They lay still for a while both holding each other tightly; not wanting to let the other go. The memories of the last few days disappearing as they both began to look forward to the future.
Ten minutes later JR made an effort to move;
"Hey you going to get dressed and come downstairs" JR asked
Sue Ellen looked at him "I was comfortable here" she replied. Getting up she moved closer to him and put her arms around his neck.
"Mmmm, carry on like that and we might just have to put off telling momma our good news until tomorrow" JR laughed
Sue Ellen kissed him "You have no idea what I want to do to you at this precise moment in time" she said
"I think I have!" JR replied "But we really should go back downstairs"
Sue Ellen put her hand on his manhood and gently stroked him "You sure about that" she said
"Maybe a little bit longer wouldn't hurt" JR said
Sue Ellen pushed him down onto the bed; starting at his mouth she kissed her way down his body. Finding her way to his manhood she looked back at him and smiled. JR closed his eyes as she took him in his mouth; she began sucking on him as a baby sucks a bottle, she looked at him and smiled; going back to what she was doing she began to hum; JR opened his eyes.
"Sue Ellen………no….stop….I can't take much more" he said
Sue Ellen ignored him and increased her pace; JR bucked as he felt his climax hit him and he spilt his seed inside her. Sue Ellen swallowed every last drop.
"God….I tell you what noone has ever done that for me the way that you do it" he said
"Mmm and you taste so good!" she said
JR looked at her "Come here!" he said
Sue Ellen got up and crawled onto the bed next to him. JR laughed as he cuddled her closer to him
"I thought you wanted to get some rest" he said
"I did but just at this moment I want you" she said "I was terrified in that warehouse, I thought I would never see you or John Ross again"
"Hey come on did you really think that I'd put Ewing Oil before you?" he asked
"I know how much Ewing Oil means to you; how you wanted to make your father proud of you by making the company a success" Sue Ellen replied
"Sue Ellen, nothing is more important than you" he said "I made a promise to you and I'm going to keep it. From this moment I'm going to show you how precious you are to me; for once in my life I'm going to take a chance and not bottle up my feelings for you; I'm going to show you and our children how much I love you every day for the rest of our lives"
Sue Ellen felt tears form in her eyes "All I ever wanted was your love" she said
"I know" JR said "But you loved me too much…….I didn't know how to return that love and it scared me"
"JR you should never be scared of expressing your feeling" Sue Ellen said "From this moment on I want you to talk to me about anything that's bothering you; if you have a problem; whatever it is I want to be the one you run to, like I told you before I don't want you bottling things up, I'm here as your best friend, your lover and your wife"
"Okay…I'll try…but it won't be easy" JR said
"JR sometimes you just have to trust people and the people who you should trust most in the world are your family who love you" Sue Ellen said "While we talking about confiding in people; what's going to happen about Ewing Oil"
JR sighed "Angelica has got the deeds to Ewing Oil and an official letter stating that I'm handing her the company, however shortly after we left Harry and his men picked them up when they walked out of the building" he said
"Are you sure they can't escape" Sue Ellen said
JR looked at her "They didn't touch you did they…I mean….they didn't try anything" he said
"No" Sue Ellen replied "They threatened to but didn't, I was just scared for the baby"
"Why didn't you tell me where you were going that day?" JR said "I would have come with you"
"JR, if I had told you where I was going you would have wanted to know why; and I wanted to make sure that my feelings were correct before I said anything to you. I knew how upset you would have been if I had told you that I thought I was pregnant and it had been a false alarm" she replied
"You know, Angelica is going to pay for what she did to you" JR said "She's not going to get away with it!"
"What are you going to do?" Sue Ellen asked
"That's nothing for you to worry about!" he replied "I'm going to meet Harry tomorrow and he'll take care of everything; I promise you she will never come near you again!"
Sue Ellen snuggled closer to him and kissed him "I love you" she said
"I love you too" he replied "By the way you are happy about this baby?"
Sue Ellen looked at him and smiled "I have to admit at first I thought it was a bit soon; I mean we've only been back together for eight weeks, however now that I'm used to the idea I'm happy; this is a fresh start for both of us; a chance to put things right and go through this pregnancy together unlike last time" she said "I want this baby so much and I know John Ross wants a brother or sister"
"Really" JR said
"I heard him talking to Miss Ellie some time ago; she was telling him about you, Gary and Bobby; John Ross told her he knew that he wouldn't have any brothers because his parents didn't love each other" she replied "I think it was then that I knew I wanted to put my family back together; I didn't want my son thinking his parents hated each other, that we were putting on an act for him"
"That kiss in the kitchen; I was surprised you didn't slap me for that!" JR said
Sue Ellen laughed "No, I think I'd already made up my mind at that point that I wanted you back" she said "Then at the fundraiser……you were perfect, you made a real effort not talking about business and just supporting me that I remember all night long the only thing I wanted to do was go back to Southfork and into your bed"
"Will you still renew our vows?" JR asked
"Yes" she replied "This time will be forever; I want our children to be brought up in a loving secure relationship; not the volatile one that John Ross has seen, I feel so guilty about what we put him through"
"So do I" JR said "But we can make it up to him; I'm not going to let Ewing Oil consume me anymore, I want to spend more time with you two; take fishing trips with John Ross"
"He'd like that" Sue Ellen said "It's getting late; maybe we should say goodnight to Miss Ellie and Clayton"
They got up and got dressed and went back downstairs; finding Miss Ellie and Clayton in the living room.
"Hey you two I was just going to make a drink, would you like something?" Miss Ellie asked
"Well…we only came to say goodnight…but since you're offering a coffee would be good" JR said
JR and Sue Ellen went and sat down on the sofa.
"Sue Ellen, how are you/" Clayton asked
"I'm fine although it's been a long twenty four hours" she replied
"JR, have the police caught up with Angelica" Clayton asked
JR sighed "Angelica is being taken care of" he replied "I promise you she will never come near this family again"
"You put your wife's life in danger JR, how could you be so stupid" Clayton said
"Please Clayton it's over!" Sue Ellen said "I'm fine…I just want to forget the whole thing"
Miss Ellie returned with the coffee and everyone took their drinks. JR looked at Sue Ellen and held her hand tightly. He looked up at Clayton.
"Clayton I know what you think about me; but this past twenty four hours has taught me a valuable lesson. I love Sue Ellen more than anything in this world and there is nothing I wouldn't do for her or John Ross. When we got back together we made a pact that we would wipe out the bad times and start over and that it was I intend to do" he said "I promise you I'm not going to hurt her again, beside we have some good news for you"
"What news" Miss Ellie asked
JR looked at Sue Ellen "Well do you want to tell them or shall I?" he asked
Sue Ellen smiled at him "You" she said
"We're going to have a baby" JR said
"Congratulations" Miss Ellie said as she went over and hugged Sue Ellen "When is it due"
"About seven months time!" Sue Ellen said
Clayton went over and shook JR's hand "I'm happy for both of you; but please JR take care of her" he said
"I promise" JR replied
Clayton then hugged Sue Ellen.
"Momma, we want to turn Sue Ellen's old room into a nursery" JR said "We thought that as it's directly opposite our room it would be the perfect place"
"Sounds fine by me; of course it does mean that Sue Ellen will lose her room" Miss Ellie said
JR laughed "Don't worry she wont be needing it anymore" he said
They stayed chatting for another half an hour; Sue Ellen desperately wanted to go back upstairs and continue what they had been doing before. She had felt tired earlier on this evening but now all she wanted to do was make love to JR. Finally they said goodnight and went upstairs. On entering their room Sue Ellen put her arms around JR's neck and pulled him into a kiss.
"I want you" she said
JR lifted her up and carried her to the bed; setting her down he began to get undressed.
"Just hurry up" Sue Ellen said
"Pregnancy seems to have made you impatient my love" JR laughed
After he had finished undressing he went and lay down beside her, then tenderly began kissing her. He then began to slowly remove her clothes. Sue Ellen felt herself getting agitated; she wanted him inside her, she pulled him closer to her.
"JR you are driving me crazy" she said
JR laughed and began kissing his way down her body; reaching her breast he spent time kissing each one, lovingly sucking on each nipple as his hand wandered down to her thigh and he found her womanhood. Gently he stroked it as he continued kissing her.
Sue Ellen screamed "God…..JR….stop teasing me!" she said
He began to move lower down her body and slipping off the bed he knelt in front of her; Sue Ellen opened her legs wider for him and he inserted his tongue inside her, gently licking her, then he began to suck on her love button, then taking two fingers he inserted them inside of her. JR knew that he was close and increased the speed of his actions. Sue Ellen squirmed; she could feel herself lose control; she wanted JR so badly; she needed to feel himself inside of her.
"JR…….I can't take much more" she said
"Let go…" JR said; just as he said it Sue Ellen's walls constricted around his fingers and she felt herself explode calling JR's name. Finally JR stood up and climbed on top of her; opening her legs wider he entered her and slowly pushed himself deeper into her. Finding their rhythm they moved as one until both of them found themselves over the edge. When they were finished JR took Sue Ellen in his arms and held her tightly. She felt safe and secure realizing that there wasn't a place she'd sooner be. They lay quietly for a while.
"Hey what are you thinking?" Sue Ellen asked
"Just about how much I love you" He said "And how much I'm looking forward to our new baby"
Sue Ellen kissed him "So am I, in fact I'm looking forward to watching you change dirty diapers" she laughed
JR groaned "I forgot about that!" he said
Sue Ellen laughed "If I remember rightly you never changed John Ross' diapers but still I'm here to teach you" she said
"I've just thought, I've never held a newborn baby; John Ross was six months old when I held him" he said
"JR you'll be fine" she replied
"You do realize that I'm going to spoil you for the next eight months" JR said "After all I've got to make up for last time"
"That's all in the past sweetheart" Sue Ellen said "I told you I wanted to wipe out the past and start afresh and this is the perfect new beginning"
"I was thinking; we have never taken a family holiday with John Ross. Schools out in a couple of weeks what do you say that we get away from Dallas for a while" He said
"Sounds good…where would we go?" she asked
"Anywhere you want…however I was thinking why not take John Ross to Disney and then spend a couple of weeks in Hawaii" he said
"Sounds good to me" she replied
"We could also take Christopher; to keep John Ross company "JR said" What do you think?"
"Are you sure?" Sue Ellen said
"Well he's still my nephew…even though Bobby is no longer here and John Ross likes having him around" JR said
Sue Ellen thought for a moment "Mmm okay…..I've never really thought about it but he's Kristin's son which makes him my blood nephew and John Ross' real cousin" she said
"How do you feel about that…I know you must hate Kristin" JR asked
"No, I don't hate her; I just didn't like her at times" Sue Ellen said "But at least I know her son is being well taken care of"
"Okay why don't we go into town at some point and pick up some travel brochures" JR said
"Yes and while we're in town we can go looking for wallpaper and paint to decorate the nursery" Sue Ellen said
"You have some good ideas Mrs Ewing but right now I think you need some sleep" JR said "You should be tired"
Sue Ellen yawned "Good idea" she said as she snuggled closer into JR. JR kissed her and watched as she drifted off to sleep.
The following morning JR woke early and looked down at this sleeping wife; she seemed so peaceful that he decided to let her sleep longer and slowly got out of bed being careful not to wake her. Once he was dressed he went downstairs finding Miss Ellie and Clayton outside on the patio eating breakfast.
"Mornin' momma, mornin' Clayton" he said
"Good morning JR, where's Sue Ellen" Miss Ellie asked
"She's tired, so I let her sleep in" JR replied "I don't want her over dong things"
JR fixed himself some breakfast and sat down. Ten minutes later a car pulled up and John Ross and Pam got out.
"Hi everyone" Pam said
Hi Pam, how are you?" Miss Ellie said
"I'm fine John Ross couldn't wait to come home" Pam replied
"Daddy is momma home?" John Ross asked
"Hi buddy, yes she is" JR replied
"Good, I'm going to see her" John Ross said racing inside.
"John Ross….don't wake your momma" JR started but it was too late his son didn't hear him.
JR turned back to Pam and said "Where's Christopher"
"He's with Mark" Pam replied
"Well Sue Ellen and I are thinking of going on holiday and we were wondering if you would let Christopher join us as he would be good company for John Ross" JR said
"mmm, can I get back to you on that" she replied
"Okay, well I better go and find my son" JR said as he got up and walked inside.
