My Heaven And My Hell

Confrontation 5/17/05

Nikki's POV

I pull into Jenny's driveway and park. There is a unfamiliar car in what I consider to be my space. Well unless it's parked in her garage. I almost snicker at my thoughts.

Donna is with me we are going to pick up Elisa and Mary and take them to the park and then to dinner.. It's a Triple Sixx day. We both get out of the vehicle. Donna helps Frankie out of her seat. Approaching the door I see tinny Jenny blocking the door into her home and she's not happy.  There are two guys one of  them is John. They hear me coming. They move aside. Donna flashes them a dirty look and takes Jenny's hand and leads her away. I take her place at the door.

"What do you want?" I ask in a cool voice.

"Mr. Houser would like to see his daughter." The man answers calmly.

"What did Miss Grey say?" I question.

"She informed us that It wouldn't happen unless a judge ordered it. I really...

I cut him off.

"Well I guess the lady has spoken." I glare and go to slam the door in their faces.

"It must be nice to have two whores to fuck." John pops off. "And holy shit they both know. I guess being a rockstar has its privileges."

I hold back the urge to punch him. It wouldn't help Jenny's case.

"You will never see my daughter ever." I tell him with a smile and go with my first instinct and slam the door instead.

I wait till I hear the car pull out and leave.

I turned to see the most amazing sight. Donna is holding and comforting Jenny. I get a warning look from my wife which I'm sure means keep your fucking sarcastic mouth shut. So I do.

"Damn girl don't we know how to pick em." Donna quips. "How did you meet him?

I sit in my chair and huff. Nice slam I don't like being lumped in with Jenny's exes.

"Um I hired him to mow my lawn. I was lonely." She answers sheepishly.

"Lesson learned never fuck the the help." She giggles and as her tears dry up. Ah slam number two. She's on a roll.

"Lesson learned." Jenny sighs dramatically.

"I know you like this house. It's beautiful, but its to excessable.  Maybe you should try a gated community or gated property. I think you're gonna need more room anyway." Donna suggests. She sighs and glances at Jenny's tummy then at me. I can't read the poker face she gives me.

I had been thinking the same thing about a new house. I wasn't sure she could afford it. We have never discussed her financial situation. She lives very modestly for LA. It's always been an argument about how much money I should give her for my girls. She would tell me. They need your time not your money. It would piss me off. I just ended up starting them a savings account.

"I was coming to that conclusion myself." She answers. She doesn't even flinch.

"I heard about the horse ranch you bought recently it's sweet of you to allow the man to continue to run it." Donna grins.

Huh That's news to me.

Jenny smiles. Donna has been trying to get her mind off of her problems. It worked.

"Oh I only own 49% of the operation. I'm a silent partner. His wife got sick and died from cancer. He was swimming in debt. There was no reason for him to lose his home too. He doesn't mind keeping my horses and being invaded by my family on occasion." She blushes. She doesn't flaunt her good deeds.

Jenny still looks tired, but she's calm. I'm worried she's not sleeping good. Her dreams are horrible. I wish I could be with her more. I'm going back on the road soon. No matter how I try I'll probably miss the birth. It's the price I pay for what I do for a living.

Donna takes the girls to SUV and I linger behind. I give Jenny a hug.

"Everything is gonna be ok. I promise." I whisper.

She holds me tight for a moment. Then gives me a gentle push towards the door.

Once in the SUV I start it and head out to spend time with my girls.

Donna is silent for awhile. Then giggles.

"I could tell by the look on your face earlier. You have no idea how much she is worth."

"Why would I ask?" I question. "And why do you know so much?"

"Know your enemy. Between her horror novels, children's books, adult porn she writes, and some really good investments. She is loaded." She answers. "It's sad really."

"What is?" I ask.

"We might have been friends under different circumstances. I admire the fact she is selfmade. She is modest and charitable."

"Really?" I smirk.

She leans close to whisper in my ear.

"Ok now I'm done being nice. She's a husband stealing whore. She looks like Elvira with her straight black hair, except she has no tits. I hate her guts." She hisses.

"Bitch." I whisper back.

"Dick." She answers sweetly.

"Feel better." I ask out loud

"Yes I do." She says and smiles.

I just laugh. It's better then fighting. Hmm I didn't know Jenny wrote porn.

Jenny's POV

"Wow Donna was nice to you Mama." Lizzy states bewildered.

"Don't get use to it Mama." Charlie jokes.

"Oh I won't." I laugh. I appreciated her kindness today even if it was veneer thin. I have to give her credit for the performance. I'm glad she cares for Mary and doesn't want her life disrupted.

I've never disliked Donna why should I I'm the one in the wrong. I've never been one to delude myself into fake righteousness. As long as the children are happy and not being used as pawns. She can hate me all she wants.

"What should we do tonight?" I ask Charlie and Lizzy. It just being the three us doesn't happen often.
