Consequences Pt. 22

Mike and Jen hired a sedan and rushed home that evening. The news of Joe's cancer had sobered them both, but they didn't trust themselves driving so they hired a driver.

It was late when they got home. Joe was asleep but Mike's mom and dad were still awake. They'd obviously been crying.

"How bad is it?" Mike asked.

"We spoke to Dr. Calgary," Mike's dad said. Dr. Calgary was Joe's oncologist. "It's bad this time. Joe only has months. Two, maybe three."

"Oh god!" Jen cried her hand going to her mouth. She started to cry. Mike's mom hugged her and started sobbing too.

"Joe's known for some time," Mike's dad continued. "They've been trying holistic treatments. Dr. Calgary, he's had some success. You've met Willow his therapist?"

As Mike said "no" Jen said "yes" through her tears. Mike's dad frowned at the two of them.

A little later Mike's dad pulled him aside. "Are you and Jen okay Mike?" he asked.

"Joe said something?" Mike asked alarmed.

"No he didn't say anything," Mike's dad said. He glanced around the apartment. "Your place here. It doesn't look like you and Jen have been living here lately."

"I've been in London a lot, for work," Mike said quickly. "Jen's been ... staying with a friend while I've been away."

Mike's dad nodded but didn't look convinced. "Are you okay Mike?" he asked. "I saw the reports on the news about your Sapphire program."

"I'm fine dad," Mike said. He abruptly left and returned to Jen's side, not wanting to talk about Sapphire.

Later Mike and Jen were snuggling in bed. "I need to go to London," Mike said stroking Jen's long blonde hair.

"You don't have to go Mike," Jen said. "Don't worry about Memphis. Joe is more important."

"There's nothing I can do here," Mike said disheartened. He felt so powerless to help Joe. He couldn't even go see Madam Marie, as she'd passed away a few years ago. At least in London he could do something useful.

"Okay," Jen reluctantly agreed. She truly didn't care if the Ring worked or not, not anymore. Winning Memphis seemed so unimportant now. But she knew her husband. Working on the Ring would help take his mind off Joe. "I'll look after Joe while you're away," she promised. She held back more tears.

Despite the terrible news her body still had cravings. Her pussy ached for attention. She ran her hand down her husband's chest and cupped his cock. "Mike?" she prompted gently.

Mike grasped her hand. "I'm sorry honey, I can't right now," he said. He was too upset about Joe, he wasn't in the mood for sex.

"Okay," Jen said softly, hiding her disappointment. She snuggled into her husband's arms and did her best to fall asleep.

Mike left for London the next morning. Joe was still asleep when Jen was about to go to work. Willow was there.

"Joe told me you and your husband are back together," Willow said.

"We are," Jen said looking around nervously. Luckily Mike's parents weren't there (they were staying in a hotel). Jen whispered "Don't tell Mike's parents we were separated okay?"

"Of course not," Willow said looking at Jen contemplatively. "You're moving back here? Can Joe still stay?"

"Of course, he can stay as long as he wants," Jen said immediately.

"That's good, the holistic treatments are more effective if he's in familiar surroundings," Willow said.

"You still have hopes for the holistic treatments?" Jen asked.

"Yes of course," Willow said almost eagerly. "The mind and spirit can often overcome failings of the body." The gypsy raised an eyebrow and asked "Your husband will be away for some time?"

Jen nodded sourly. "He's flying to London for work. He'll be away for 2 or 3 weeks."

Willow nodded. She was silent for a few moments, as if thinking. "I have an appointment tonight," she finally said. "You'll do Joe's massage treatment?"

"Um, sure," Jen said hesitantly.

Willow heard Jen's uncertainly. She smiled encouragingly. "His treatments have a much better chance of success if provided by a loved one. You're his sister-in-law. I can tell you're close."

"Yes we are," Jen agreed. She and Joe had always been close, not just as SIL-BIL but as friends. She smiled, more determined this time. "Of course I'll do it."

At work Jen went to see Scott. She closed the door as she entered his office.

Scott looked up and grinned. "Hey Jen, I've got a great video to show you," he joked.

Jen laughed. "God you're an ass," she said smiling back at him. Then her expression turned to a mix of embarrassment and seriousness. "It was a one-time thing Scott. You won't say anything right?"

Scott stood and walked to the other side of the desk so he was facing Jen. "So you and Mike are back together?" he asked.

"We were never apart," Jen corrected him.

"Okay," Scott said with a "whatever" shrug. He'd heard the rumors about Jen living with another guy, he'd seen Jen's ringless left hand. Now he saw her wedding ring back on her left hand. Whatever, if that was how she wanted to play it, fine, he didn't care. He didn't want her heart. He just wanted her body.

"I feel bad about the other night," Scott said with a grin and clearly joking. "I feel like I didn't take care of you."

"You were fine Scott," Jen said with an embarrassed laughed.

"I pride myself on giving more than I get," he said his grin growing wider. "I didn't give you the big O Saturday night."

"That's okay Scott," Jen said laughing again. "I've gotten enough big O's from you" - she laughed as she said "big O" - "I think I'm still ahead." Jen blushed as she realized what had popped out of her mouth.

Scott smiled playfully and leaned his butt against the desk. "Feel free to even the score anytime."

"Oh, so I should get on my knees right now?" Jen said with an incredulous laugh.

"You know I think that's hot, my boss going down on me," he said grinning lecherously at her. "All those times you sucked me off ..." He lightly caressed across her shoulder and down her arm.

"You'll have to be happy with the memories," Jen said taking a step back away from his hand. "It's not happening again."

Scott looked disappointed and incredulous. "So Saturday night -."

"Was a one-time thing," Jen said completing his sentence. "I want you to promise not to say anything." She knew there were rumors about her and Mike having marriage issues. The last thing she needed were rumors about her and Scott having an affair (again).

"What happens at Colin's stays at Colin's," Scott said with a disappointed shrug, repeating the joke common among the in-crowd at Penn State. "So I WAS just a pawn in Mike's latest game," he said bitterly.

"Don't start Scott, it's not like I didn't warn you," Jen said frowning at him.

Jen glared at Scott. He glared back but after a few moments he backed off. "Okay," he said relenting, knowing she HAD warned him.

Jen left Scott's office. She was fairly certain Scott would keep his mouth shut. On the other hand, she knew Colin and Tony would blabber to everyone, Tony especially given what they'd done together; and what they hadn't done. Oh well ...

She was having second thoughts about moving to Penn State. She knew she had a reputation from the wild times in college and the even wilder times playing the game with Mike. It might be better to move to a place where she and Mike could make a clean start.

After all, the last thing she needed was Colin and Tony hitting on her all the time. That would tempt Mike too much to start playing the game again. And, she admitted, it would tempt her too much too.

God her body craved sex! She'd last gotten it on Thursday with Frankie. In fact, prior to this weekend she'd been getting it regularly from Frankie, usually at least once a day, sometimes more than once a day. Now it was like she'd gone cold turkey. And after all the teasing she'd done this weekend ... God she couldn't wait for Mike to get home! Hopefully he'd come home this weekend.

Later that day Jen's phone rang. She looked at the caller ID. Her heart sank when she saw it was Frankie calling.

"Hi Frankie," Jen said softly on the phone. "How are you?"

"I'm good," Drums said. To Jen's surprise he sounded chipper. "I just met with Artie. Did you hear? Tommy Ramone, the last original Ramones, he died last week."

"Oh, no, I didn't hear."

"There's a lot of interest in our revival band again," Drums said. "Artie's booked some concerts."

"That's good ... I guess," Jen said.

"Yeah, I know, Tommy was the drummer too, it's kind of morbid," Drums agreed. "But this way it'll give me some runway. I'm cutting a solo album. Artie's managing."

"Oh that's so good Frankie," Jen gushed.

"Anyway, I wanted to let you know I'll be back and forth the next couple weeks, on this mini tour," Drums said. "In case you want to get together."

"Oh um ..."

"I mean, in case you and Mike want to get together with me," Drums said. "We're still friends, right?"

"Of course we are," Jen said.
