Chapter 1054
Tried That Before
Vanna watched Allison present herself as quite a Bitch. She saw her act the same way more than a few times in the past, the future. They didn't like the insults one of the bodybuilder's leveled at them and now all of the bodybuilder's faced a challenge. They were able to pit Bob against any of the weightlifters in a weightlifting competition. It was a contest no human could match a Terminator in. It was payback time.
Allison wanted to make it hurt a little for the bodybuilders. The best way to do it was with some cold hard cash. She planned to use the money for the homeless.
"I'll hold the money." Allison said. "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere because I plan to keep collecting more."
The weightlifters adjusted the weights.
They brought in a 'ringer' to try and beat Bob.
Vanna looked as a large muscular individual arrived on the scene. She wasn't turned on by males in general. To see the extreme physique of the bodybuilder actually turned her off to males even more. It only reinforced her desire for a delicate and shapely female body.
"I can see steroids work as advertised." Vanna said.
One of the weightlifters smiled at Vanna.
"He's one of our group." The first weightlifter said. "We plan to get our money back, and all of yours."
Another one of the weightlifters leered at Vanna and Allison.
"We can up the bet and maybe gamble on a little more with you two sweethearts." The second weightlifter said. "I think both of you could make things interesting for all of us, at the same time."
Allison looked at the weightlifter with disgust.
"You could never come up with enough for us." Allison said. "You can double down on your money though if you want with the 'Steroid King', I mean 'Samson'. Nobody can beat your guy, right?"
The weightlifters didn't care for Allison's aggressive attitude.
"I think you need to put a little skin on the line." The first weightlifter said.
Vanna didn't like the comment.
"Watch your mouth or you'll get a fist in it." Vanna said.
The ringer for the bodybuilders moved into position to give it his best shot.
'Samson' was barely able to lift the weight.
Bob moved over and took up his position.
"Add a hundred pounds." Bob said.
Allison sat across the center of the bar.
"Will this work?" Allison asked.
Bob was presented with a close up view of Allison's rear end. He thought now would have been a good time for her to be wearing only the bikini. The thought briefly crossed his mind it would be better if she was actually naked and she sat on the bar directly over his face.
"Affirm…." Bob started. "Yes. I like the view."
Bob lifted the weight with Allison sitting on it.
Allison smiled and flashed the money around.
The steroid laden bodybuilder didn't like being beaten. He wasn't done yet.
"Put two hundred pounds on." 'Samson' said.
Bob and 'Samson' switched places.
The other weightlifters added the additional weight as per 'Samson's' request.
"You need to be careful." One of the weightlifters said. "This is a lot of weight."
'Samson' nodded and went to lift the weight. There was a 'spotter' on each end. He struggled with the additional weight. His arms began to vibrate and his left arm started to give out. The two spotters couldn't control the weight. It tilted and was about to crash down on top of 'Samson'. It was probably going to crush his chest. The rib bones as they shattered would be driven into his heart and other internal organs. 'Samson' was a moment away from death.
Bob stepped forward and steadied the weight. He kept it from crushing 'Samson'. He put the weight back on the mount with the spotters.
'Samson' looked more than a little shaken. He was aware if Bob hadn't stepped in, he may have been injured since the spotters couldn't control the weight when it started to slip.
"Thanks man." 'Samson' said. "It never happened before."
Bob wanted a clean victory. He knew he could lift double the weight without any trouble whatsoever. He almost lifted the weight with one hand to put it back by himself, but checked himself at the last moment and used two hands to make it look like it was necessary. He didn't want to see the large bodybuilder hurt since he wasn't part of the initial group who levied the insults. As a matter of fact, he hadn't said much at all until now. He wanted to play fair. He knew his 'natural ability' was superior.
"You were close. I'll give it to you." Bob said. "Add two hundred pounds. Anyone can have a little slip up every now and then. You did very good on your turn. Everything worked out in the end so there's nothing to worry about."
A murmur of disbelief flooded the bodybuilders.
Nobody was stronger than 'Samson'.
Allison wanted to play it up some and sucker the weightlifters out of more money as she humiliated them. She was still steamed and enjoyed everything.
"Now is the chance to double your money." Allison said. "Come up with some more cash and we'll double it if he fails. It's two hundred more pounds than 'Samson' was able to lift."
A few more of them fished out cash. They saw how 'Samson' struggled just moments ago. There was no way the newcomer could lift the additional weight. It was impossible.
Bob wanted to up the ante even more.
"Add two hundred pounds on each side." Bob said as he watched them.
More money came out.
Vanna glared at the mouthy weightlifter and then turned her attention to Allison and smiled.
"Give him your sweet bottom to look at for inspiration." Vanna said. "It always works for me."
Allison smiled and sat on the bar again. She looked at Vanna, and the assembled bodybuilders.
"I should have worn my skirt with no underwear." Allison said. "He'd be able to get a real look then. I can guarantee it would give anyone inspiration with a view of what was desired by everyone."
Vanna looked at the weightlifters and then back at Allison.
"It's OK. I don't need a real look. I'll be able to get a real lick in later on." Vanna said. "I can guarantee there will be a lot of them too."
Both Allison and Vanna giggled.
Bob lifted the weight three times with Allison balanced on it.
The bodybuilders looked on in stunned silence for a moment.
"That's impossible." Someone said.
The statement irritated Vanna. She remembered what Cameron always said when she defeated a challenger and they said the exact same thing after they just watched Cameron do it. The same thing happened now when they just watched Bob do it. The trouble was, they didn't know what a Terminator was. She looked at the crowd of weightlifters and wondered if they would need to find out the hard way.
"Really?" Vanna asked. "Then how did he just do it if it's impossible? Everyone just watched it happen."
There was a lot of murmur and anger among the bodybuilders in the area.
"We're getting played." Another one said.
Allison challenged the weightlifters again.
"Then lift it yourself." Allison said. "I won't be on it for you. You'll have less weight to lift. Put your effort where your mouth is since you already put your money where your mouth was."
'Samson' was never defeated before. He thought the other weightlifter was amicable and honest as well as a good sport. He just didn't think it was possible. He knew there were no tricks involved with the weights or anything since he used them.
"Nobody can lift that much." 'Samson' said. "We did watch it happen. I can verify the weights are real."
Vanna didn't like any of the weightlifters. She wanted to humiliate them further.
"Maybe you should arm wrestle then." Vanna said. "You can still beat him. Go for it."
'Samson' was up for the challenge as well. It was another category he was undefeated in. He wanted to try to redeem himself.
"I've never lost." 'Samson' said.
Bob looked at the challenger with his 'Terminator face'.
"We'll see." Bob said.
'Samson' took two steps back. He felt he just looked 'Death' in the face.
Cameron and Young Allison hurried to where they knew Vanna and Allison were at with Bob.
Young Allison was concerned about the nature of the challenge. It was the location which bothered her.
"They're in a secluded location, but they are going to attract attention to themselves if they keep it up." Young Allison said. "I know most of the people don't pay attention because it's what normally goes on, but the way they're gathered may draw other onlookers."
Cameron was aware of their standard operating procedure. John Henry would have their backs covered.
"John Henry will block all communications from anyone around them." Cameron said.
Young Allison smiled with the thought. She already took pre-emptive action.
"I know CamNet is." Young Allison said. "I asked her from the moment I saw the drone footage."
It pleased Cameron.
"You're very far thinking." Cameron said.
Young Allison knew every variable couldn't be controlled, but they could take precautions. The ability to adapt and improvise when the situation changed is what would determine the victor in a battle. Luckily this was just a competition and wouldn't escalate into some type of warfare. Wait. Maybe it's exactly what it would turn into.
"I like to cover all the bases." Young Allison said.
Cameron tilted her head slightly. It was something she said herself sometimes.
"Indeed…." Cameron said.
Cameron spotted the group and pointed.
"There they are." Cameron said.
Young Allison looked in the direction.
"I can see them." Young Allison said.
Cameron was always up to a good challenge, but she didn't try to overdo it. Well, not too much anyway. It depended upon how mouthy some of the individuals became. The more they couldn't accept their loss, the more she tried to rub it in because of their poor attitude and rudeness.
"The girls are making Bob show off." Cameron said. "Allison, I want you to go and stand with Allison and Vanna, first. Keep them out of trouble. I don't want them to overdo it."
Young Allison smiled at Cameron. She then moved forward and went to Allison and Vanna. The girls greeted each other.
"Cameron is here." Young Allison whispered.
Vanna and Allison looked at each other with the new information and smiled.
Young Allison was aware the bodybuilders 'checked her out' as she walked over to Vanna and Allison. She didn't like the feeling, even if she did like the attention and impact of her arrival.
The mouthy bodybuilder moved over in front of the three girls. His eyes rolled over Young Allison from her head to her feet and back up again. They paused at her breasts as his eyes moved in both directions. It was clearly a sexual gesture.
"Is she your sister?" The mouthy weightlifter asked. "She's even punier than you are. You said she could beat me."
Young Allison looked at the man and instantly disliked him. She could see why they were involved in the challenge. She was ready to challenge him in several other categories to test his intelligence.
"It doesn't look like it would take much to beat you, at anything. Are we going to do physics calculations, or a spelling bee?" Young Allison asked. "I shouldn't have trouble with either one. It looks like you'll have trouble with both."
Young Allison was steamed now as well. She could see Vanna start to move forward. She quickly reached over and took her arm to stop her.
"Where did this loser come from?" Young Allison asked.
Allison didn't like the way the mouthy weightlifter looked at Young Allison. She could see Vanna didn't either. She saw Young Allison restrain Vanna from advancing. She was glad they were unarmed. She was sure Vanna would have shot him if she carried her pistol with her. She flashed Vanna a reassuring look and winked at her. She hoped it would be enough to calm her down.
"I did said my sister could lift more than you." Allison said. "I didn't say which one."
Cameron walked into view.
"Is there some problem here?" Cameron asked.
'Samson' was impressed with what he saw. He still wanted to complete the competition.
"There's no problem." 'Samson' said.
Cameron looked over the group of weightlifters.
"If anyone has a problem with my sisters, then they have a problem with me." Cameron said.
Young Allison knew Cameron meant it for real as a Terminator.
There were murmurs about how pretty Cameron looked and what a knockout she was.
To hear the words and see the reaction to Cameron wasn't lost on Young Allison. She would strive to look like her one day with Cammy's 'accessories'….
The mouthy bodybuilder took a step back and eyed Cameron from head to toe and back again. He did the same thing to her he did to Young Allison.
"There's no way she can beat me." The mouthy weightlifter said. "Well, there actually is one."
It drew a round of laughter from the other bodybuilders.
Cameron wasn't fazed.
"You sound like a man of experience." Cameron said. "I'm sure you get plenty of practice on your own."
Cameron's comment drew an even bigger round of laughter, and agreement, from the group. The mouthy weightlifter was further humiliated.
Young Allison needed to suppress a giggle with all of the interaction. She could see Vanna and Allison still look like they wanted to kill.
Cameron disliked the mouthy weightlifter. She didn't like the way he spoke to Allison when Young Allison entered. She disliked the way they all looked at Young Allison even more. She was ready for any challenge.
"I can beat you at anything." Cameron said.
The belligerent bodybuilder liked the way Cameron looked, but he was going to put her in her place. It would show her older sister she didn't know as much as she thought.
"Prove it." The mouthy weightlifter said.
Allison still wanted the challenge between Bob and 'Samson'. She wanted to see all of the bodybuilder humiliated.
"What about 'Samson' and my boyfriend arm wrestling?" Allison asked. "'Samson' has one last chance at redemption. We want to make sure everyone has a fair chance to compete at what they're good at. It's a competition of the best of the best."
Bob looked at 'Samson'.
"You will lose." Bob said.
Young Allison didn't like all the attention. She thought Vanna and Allison acted recklessly. She didn't know it was 'personal' to Allison because of the man's earlier comments.
"You're going to draw too much attention." Young Allison said quietly to Vanna and Allison. "You need to show restraint. Get it together. There's no place for showmanship on the battlefield."
Allison was able to put everything into perspective with Young Allison's words. The atmosphere was very explosive, just waiting to ignite.
"It was personal, but you're correct." Allison said. "He personally insulted Vanna and me in the worst way. It was about who we are."
Vanna could see Young Allison's concern.
"We're almost done." Vanna said. "But you're right. Because it was personal, we took it a little too far in the current location. I would have killed him for the way he looked at you earlier. I didn't have my pistol with me. I know where those looks led in the past, the future."
The mouthy weightlifter saw all of the other weightlifters were angry at losing all of their money. He knew if there was a scuffle, all of them could 'take' the big newcomer.
"No girl can beat me." The mouthy weightlifter said. "Don't forget there are more of us than you too."
Cameron looked at the mouthy weightlifter. It was time to put him and the rest of them in their place.
"Is this the weight?" Cameron asked.
It was the one Bob just lifted. It was the same bar with the extra weight added after 'Samson' couldn't lift it earlier.
The mouthy weightlifter could see Cameron was going to try and lift it. He thought there must be something wrong with her mentally. Now he was a little concerned for her safety. If she was hurt in their workout area, they were going to be responsible for any lawsuit.
"Are you insane?" The mouthy weightlifter asked.
Cameron tilted her head slightly. It was a thought which crossed her mind more than a few times.
"Probably…." Cameron said.
Allison wanted to squeeze some more money out of the crowd. She wanted to make a point and make it hurt a little for the weightlifters.
"How much is it worth?" Allison asked.
The mouthy weightlifter looked around at the group. It looked like everyone was tapped out for cash.
"You already have all our money." The mouthy weightlifter said. "You've already cleaned us out."
Cameron knew there was usually some 'blow back' or attempted retaliation after a resounding defeat. With Young Allison there, she didn't want any additional issues to develop. If it was just Bob and her she would welcome the additional challenge to her 'natural ability', and her superiority.
"Then we won't have any trouble when we leave then, will we?" Cameron asked.
Cameron moved under the weight and lifted it. She did it before any spotter was there to assist her in case there was a problem. She was completely on her own.
A collective gasp went up.
Cameron went to get up and saw the weight wasn't perfectly centered. She reached up with one hand and lifted it and centered it.
The entire group watched her lift the weight with one arm.
There was nothing but silence.
"The show's over." Allison said. "Everyone can move along."
Bob wanted one more chance to show off his 'natural ability'.
"What about our arm wrestling match?" Bob asked.
Cameron wanted the match for herself. She was ready to humiliate each of the weightlifters one after another if she could have the chance.
"Let me take it." Cameron said.
The small group of weightlifters was already gone. 'Samson' was the first one out.
Young Allison could see how things could get out of control quickly with a challenge, especially if there was a group of individuals. They would be under the false assumption their numbers would allow them victory if there was an altercation. It was something to think about. It was another variable which would need to be factored in on the battlefield as well. It would most likely add to the body count on the opposing side.
Savannah passed in back of Holly and Claire holding hands as they went into Vanna's room. She was a little surprised at the open display of affection. She understood what it actually meant. She decided not to disturb them. She wanted to get to her room and get things started for her project.
She arrived in her room. She knew what she wanted to do and verified everything was all ready to go. She quickly went to work and double checked everything. She wanted to make sure everything was right and would have some impact on who it was intended for.
Hanna didn't want any trouble either. She couldn't believe Ally wanted to take off and try and cover up what happened. She knew Ally loved Sheila.
"I'm not going to go away and leave Sheila here like this." Hanna said. "I can't believe you would even think it, let alone actually say it."
Ally counted on Sheila's backup program in case things were terminal. She was also very worried about when she 'hit on' Young Allison and Savannah confronted her. She was aware both Cameron and CamNet would back the girl's play. She thought it was time to come clean and tell Hanna what her personal concern was in all of this.
"If Sheila is to be deactivated, I'm going to be as well." Ally said. "I upset Savannah because I 'hit on' Young Allison. I touched her where I shouldn't have."
Hanna was disturbed Ally tried to 'hit on' Young Allison. She knew Claire would be very upset. Maybe Ally was only fooling around.
"You were just joking, right?" Hanna asked.
Ally was highly attracted to Young Allison when it happened.
"Not really…." Ally said. "I don't know what I was thinking. I got caught up in the moment. I got a little carried away. Savannah was very upset at me. She confronted me when we were leaving. She told me Young Allison was off limits to everyone. She wanted me to pass the word. I think you're going to need to help me."
Hanna understood the seriousness of the situation. It was bad enough Ally 'hit on' Young Allison. To do it in front of her mate was a mistake. She knew of the deep down anger and vengeance within Vanna when it came to Allison. It was a pretty good bet Savannah felt the same way as well. They were the same individual after all. It involved the same two individuals on top of it.
"Savannah loves Young Allison." Hanna said.
Ally was more than a little worried about the entire situation.
"I know it." Ally said. "I made her defend her mate. She won't forget it."
Hanna was aware Young Allison would back Savannah's play. Cameron would back up Savannah. CamNet would back up Young Allison.
"Neither will Young Allison." Hanna said. "It showed her how much Savannah loves her."
Ally wanted to find a solution which didn't involve a lot of people. She still wanted to keep whatever was wrong with Sheila quiet for now. There was no need to make a big deal about anything until they knew more.
"Maybe we should find Cammy." Ally said. "If we can't fix Sheila, maybe she can. We can put Sheila's chip in her second port."
Hanna was aware of a previous situation which occurred. She thought the results would be the same if they tried it again.
"They tried it before with Cameron and Cammy. It shut Cammy down as well." Hanna said. "Only Savannah could bring her back."
Hanna gave Sheila a kiss and waited. Nothing happened. She watched Ally do the same thing. She saw how Ally gently touched Sheila's cheek as she kissed her. It was a soft slow loving kiss. It was the kiss of love.
Ally backed away and looked at Sheila.
Sheila was still inoperable.
Hanna wanted a better solution. She wanted a solution which worked before.
"I can stay here with her." Hanna said. "You go find Savannah."
Ally touched Sheila's cheek softly. She stood and wiped the tears from her eyes as she left. She really wondered what went wrong. Usually only Cameron experienced the same level of distress. It was very unpleasant to witness and probably ten times worse to experience.
Earlier:
John was aware John Henry watched and monitored where Cameron was at. He started to watch too. He wondered if it would be a private nude beach, but remembered Young Allison was with her. He hoped it was a family nude beach. The thought made him think of the movie again.
John Henry was a little surprised when he started to receive a drone feed. He could see everything unfold in real time.
John was surprised as well. He could see the situation had the potential to attract a lot of attention. He didn't want to take any chances.
"I take it you have everything jammed." John said.
John Henry started on it as soon as he saw there was going to be a challenge.
"Yes." John Henry said.
John Henry was aware CamNet already took care of it. He didn't mention it to John. The fact they were able to see everything was also because of CamNet. John Henry knew Young Allison was behind both of those events.
John was a little worried because Young Allison was right in the middle of everything. He didn't want things to get out of hand. He was sure Cameron would terminate anyone who threatened any of the girls, especially Young Allison.
"I don't think we need to worry about any trouble with Young Allison there." John said. "Do we?"
John Henry didn't doubt Cameron would terminate any of the individuals there. He just didn't think it was the right setting.
"I would think Cameron would prefer action of a more clandestine nature." John Henry said. "She doesn't mind looking up the individuals and dealing with them on a personal level later on. I believe it actually gives her more satisfaction since she can spend some time with them before their termination. If they're unlucky, she will bring Sheila with her."
John Henry was sure she liked to make it personal as well when she did it.
John wondered if it might cause Cameron to show off even more to impress Young Allison. He watched everyone start to leave. He didn't think things were going to end so abruptly, or as anti-climatically.
"Where are they going now?" John asked. "Everyone left."
It appeared to John Henry everything was concluded for now. He was aware on Cameron's 'fun nights out', it was seldom the case. Usually a challenger who was soundly defeated couldn't accept the defeat by a young teenage looking girl. They often sought to redeem themselves in the parking lot or even follow Cameron. It always ended badly for the challenger. He decided not to share the information with John.
"The show is over." John Henry said. "At least for now anyway."
From what John saw, it didn't look like a big deal. He was actually thankful for it, but expected to see more trouble erupt at the location.
"I didn't see much of it." John said.
John Henry thought it was time to move on.
"No one was terminated." John Henry said. "There's not much to see. Let's just take the win and be done with it."
John hoped it stayed the same way. If there was no additional challenge to Cameron or the group, the event might be over. He wasn't sure Cameron wouldn't leave Young Allison under Bob's care and seek additional retribution.
He thought about it a little more. Maybe it wouldn't be as simple as it appeared. He remembered how Young Allison dealt with the biker gang. He was aware of how she went after the Syndicate and the Cartel. Maybe it wouldn't be Cameron who sought additional action. It might be Young Allison.
John Henry glanced over at John with his last thought. He didn't think he should share it with him either. If John tried to intervene and get ahead of anything, he might actually provoke it. It probably wouldn't be with Young Allison, but with Cameron instead who would pick up the ball and run with it.
Anna was glad Sarah wanted to return to the Resistance base. Summer and Jan weren't happy. They wanted to stay longer and hoped Cameron and Young Allison would come back. They were long gone. It wasn't going to happen.
Once they returned to the base, Sarah thanked Jim and Anna for watching over her and the girls while they were out.
Jan went with Sarah and Anna took Summer away to study.
Anna looked at her phone. She was aware of the events and activity at the beach. She needed to do her job and work with Summer, but she was still concerned for Young Allison. With Bob and Cameron with her, along with Vanna and Allison, she would try not to worry too much until she saw Young Allison with her Model 66 in her hand. If she did, she knew people were about to die. It wouldn't be the Resistance group either.
Holly walked alongside Claire. She could feel how her feelings were expanding for Claire. She first shared with Claire in a love relationship in Cameron's future. Her chances were few and far between since then. It caused a lot of friction between Hanna and her over it. Holly was with Cam whenever Vanna was with Allison and Holly was able to get Cam and Hanna to share so she could be with Claire during those times on several occasions.
Claire reached over and took Holly's hand as they walked. She wanted Holly to know she wasn't ashamed or afraid of what they were doing. It did bother her a little because she could take her daughter's lovers away from her with such ease. She didn't try to do it on purpose. She was just being herself.
Cam left the door open for them and they entered as soon as they got there.
Jesse watched as Riley changed Precious.
"I think she's hungry." Riley said.
Riley opened her top. Jesse watched, but didn't say anything. She was aware Riley's breasts were much larger than hers. She also noticed they hadn't gotten any bigger really than before Riley was pregnant. She knew hers were at least forty percent bigger.
Riley started to nurse Precious.
Precious seemed fussy still.
"I think I am out." Riley said.
Jesse didn't see how it was possible.
"You just started." Jesse said.
Riley looked at her breasts with disgust.
"These things are worthless." Riley said. "I seem to have less and less."
Jesse didn't want Riley to worry or get upset.
"I have plenty." Jesse said.
Jesse opened her top and switched places with Riley, who handed her Precious. In seconds Precious was content and nursing.
It made Riley miss the times she shared with Jesse.
She was actually surprised at how large Jesse was now compared to how she was previously. She thought it made Jesse look even more attractive. She looked down at her own breast again. She realized they were nothing but something for others to fondle and play with. They were completely useless to her. They were even more useless to Precious.
She checked them for lumps and irregularities several times. Maybe she should ask one of the Terminators to examine her. She wondered if she developed breast cancer or some other problem. Before she would have been appalled at the thought of having a mastectomy. Right now the way she felt about herself and her under performing breasts, she would welcome it. She figured if nothing else it would be one way to see who really cared about her or not, if there was nothing there but scar tissue there.
She even looked online and watched some procedures performed on YouTube. Some of the procedures seemed very crude and basic and left terrible scarring. Other procedures we're done with a little more tact and reconstruction was possible. Maybe it depended upon the severity and spread of the disease. She would not get reconstruction, even if it was available. She didn't want to be reminded of her failure with something which was completely fake in its place.
Riley watched Jesse with Precious. She was very grateful the girls were there for her and her daughter.
Jesse looked up from Precious to where Riley was at.
Riley smiled at her. She looked at Jesse with love in her eyes and mouthed the words, 'thank you'.
Jesse couldn't help but feel moved by everything. There were times in her life when she absolutely hated herself. She did things to hurt people. She did it just to hurt them. She thought it would make her feel better, but it never did. It always made her feel worse. At the time she didn't care what happened to her. It was all different now. Everything was different now.
She looked down at Precious and smiled. She knew there was one thing she wanted. She wanted her own baby. She wanted to be a mother and she wanted to be a good mother. She believed the child would straighten her out once and for all and turn her into a decent human being.
Cammy was unsure why Samantha wanted them to leave Riley's quarters.
"So what happens now?" Cammy asked. "What's really going on?"
Samantha thought she needed to try a different approach to assist Riley. She needed to assist Riley by not being there.
"I wanted Jesse and Riley to be alone with Precious." Samantha said. "Jesse will need to assist Riley."
Gail didn't want Jesse to be put into a bind.
"You or Riley should have called earlier." Gail said. "Jesse came here on her own accord."
Samantha wanted Riley to know she needed help.
"Riley needs to know she is unable to nurse Precious." Samantha said. "She needs to learn to act beforehand."
Gail was more than a little worried with the information. She didn't want Riley to seek 'comfort' from Jesse.
"Cammy and I will wait here for Jesse." Gail said. "You should go back and supervise."
Gail didn't like Riley to be alone with Jesse. She saw the way Riley began to look at Jesse again. Jesse told her in detail of the things she did with Riley, it was 'everything'. She knew Riley would miss all of it, especially after all of these years. At some point Riley would want to try to get it back. She didn't want it to happen.
Jesse promised her on multiple occasions she wouldn't become involved with either Derek or Riley sexually again. She said she made a promise to Cameron about it. She wasn't sure how well it would be able to hold up. She knew Jesse. She knew Jesse liked to be with the girls. She was pretty sure if Riley put something in Jesse's face she wanted, it would be hard for her to turn it down.
Ally was on her way to Savannah's room. She heard Cammy and Gail talking with Samantha.
She stopped and listened. It was apparent Samantha left Gail and Cammy alone a few seconds ago.
Ally tried the door. It was open.
Gail and Cammy both looked at her as she entered.
Ally didn't want to broadcast the true nature of the situation.
"I need to borrow Cammy for a short time." Ally said.
Gail wanted to share with Cammy.
"What for?" Gail asked.
Ally could feel things were about to turn into a problem. It wasn't what she wanted.
"It's personal." Ally said.
Cammy was instantly worried.
"Is Savannah OK?" Cammy asked.
Ally tilted her head slightly.
"She should be." Ally said. "It involves Sheila and me."
Cammy looked at Gail, who nodded slightly.
It appeared to Gail as if Ally was upset about something.
Cammy excused herself and followed Ally.
Ally tried to contain her tears. She walked very rapidly.
"Slow down." Cammy said. "Is Sheila OK?"
Ally was in a hurry and worried.
"NO!" Ally said. "She may have terminated. She's in her room. I need you to help her."
Cammy started to run.
Closing monologue by Cameron:
Tried That Before
What will come first
What will come last
Isn't everything that happens
Dictated by the past
Everyone wants to try
Something that's new
Would they do it again
If they had a preview
It's all about knowing
It should make a difference
From one's own mistakes
It should offer deliverance
Nothing ever seems to change
It's all more of the same
When it comes down to it
Who is the one to blame
Like mindless creatures of habit
Everyone comes back for more
Everything happens the same again
Because they forgot they tried that before
Nobody
