ODDS OF LOVE - SEASON 14

Episode 107

" Richard, Nigel, " Lynn said with compassion in her voice," what do you two think about everything you heard tonight? "

Nigel looked at his husband who just sat on the sofa with his hands covering his face. Then he glanced back at the therapist. " I think I'm taking my husband home tonight. So he can rest. He is returning to work on day after tomorrow. But I do think Andrew is right."

Richard looked up at his husband and sighed. " Yes. My father is right. Tania and I need to sit down and talk. Just the two of us. "

               ----------

" Why won't you move in with me? ," Alexi said in a voice that was as confident and arrogant as ever but still held a hint of neediness to it.  He sat up in his silk pajamas in his king sized bed as he spoke on his iPhone Pro Max. " I thought we had this settled. "

Scott retorted," No. You had it settled. You decided. Not once did you ask me what I wanted to do. Do I want to move into your bossy father's estate with your brother and his family and all the never ending guests ? Ask me. I may not be as rich as you, Alexi , but I am a man. Not one of your stock options. Ask me. "

Alexi pursed his lips in frustration. What was it with this man ? This one man ? He was rude , arrogant, abrasive, snobby, and always determined to have his way. He also was magnetic as all hell and wonderful in his own way.

And , Alexi loved him. He wanted Scott Sands in his bed every night at the estate. He wanted to live with Scott Sands but not in that tiny cracker jack box apartment of his with no luxury and servants. He wanted it all. And, he would get it.

" Fine. I love you, you brutish American cretin. I want to wake up next to you every morning and go to sleep next to you every night. I want to know nobody else is in your bed when I'm not there. Will you please move in to the estate with me? Also consider that I said please. "

Scott laughed. " That is a rarity, you bougie snob. And, I haven't fucked anyone but you. I don't want to fuck anyone besides you. God knows why but I think I love you too. And , yes. I'll do you the favor of moving in with you. Since you asked me so nice. "

                 ------------

Nettie Jean curled up in her bed crying. Crying for Jonah and the baby she carried that would never know her or his daddy. Crying for herself as well.

And , the secret she would have to carry alone forever. Because if she told LuLu or anyone else the truth about who her baby's real father was her sister would kick her out the house faster than a hen laid eggs in the summer time. And, she was not about to be homeless. Which was why after LuLu returned home with Jonah's stuff , his cell phone especially that LuLu planned to give to Jimmy because it was an iPhone , she had retrieved it briefly to delete all of the text messages between the two of them as well as any pictures she sent him.

" I'm sorry, baby , " she whispered through her tears," that you won't know your wonderful daddy. "

                    ----------

Alan was up late in his bed , typing faster than ever on his laptop as he wrote the story of the accident. He didn't know if he actually wanted anyone reading it one day but it was helping him deal with it, his father's death , his being paralyzed.

And, he was enjoying it.

                  ----------

Spencer held DuBuis close in their bed. DuBuis clutched him equally tightly and pressed a kiss on his forehead.

Spencer whispered," I didn't like Jonah. And, I don't care for LuLu. Yet I feel very sad right now. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I love you, sweetie. "

" I love you too, my beautiful genius of a man."

                 
                  -----------

LuLu tossed a gold framed picture of Jonah against a wall, watching as it shattered on impact and slid downward to the carpeted floor below.

" You motherfucking fat ass loser ! ," she screamed shrilly. " How dare you leave me with three damn kids to raise! I hope you suffered. "
