This is the final chapter, thanks for reading my story. It really means a lot to me, that you enjoy reading this story, as much as I loved writing it.
Chapter 31
1 week later
Sue Ellen was coming home today, JR went to the office to pick her up. She was waiting, he got her into a wheelchair, and was wheeling her out to the Nurses station. They all gave her a hug, and she said goodbye, and JR walked her to the elevator. They were on their way home, and Sue Ellen smiled, "It is nice to be going home, how is John Ross"?
"He is amazing, he is loves working around the Ranch. I think he will choose it over Ewing Oil Sugar. I wasn't happy about it, but whatever makes him happy is ok with me"
"God you really have changed a year ago, you would have had a fit if he said he didn't want to work at Ewing Oil"
" I almost lost you both, I never want to feel that way again". Sue Ellen smiled, "Maybe I can come , and help out at the Office JR"?
"Oh you are staying home, and getting better, you still need a lot of healing"
"I know just kidding". They drove up to Southfork, and JR helped her out of the car. She said she wanted to walk, she smiled when John Ross, Clayton and Miss Ellie greeted them. She hugged them, and they took her over to the table by the pool to sit down. She couldn't believe how much she missed Southfork, being in the hospital was really getting to her. JR touched her arm, "Are you ok , do you need to lay down"?
"I'm fine don't worry, I love it out here, I missed it". John Ross looked at his watch, "Mom I have to run, Ray needs me today, but I will be back, and maybe we can have a long talk"
"John Ross"
"Yes Mom".
"You look happy, everything is ok right?"
"I'm great Mom, don't worry, I'm still having therapy, I will for a long time to come"
"Great" . John Ross kissed her, and he ran to meet Ray over at the Stables. She smiled, "He does look healthy, I was so worried about him"
Miss Ellie touched her hand, "We were worried about all three of you, but I think you all are on the road to recovery". JR smiled, "Yes Mom we are, I finally realized what was important, and I'm not going to ruin it this time". Sue Ellen smiled, he helped her upstairs to rest. Clayton touched Miss Ellie's hand, and smiled, "Do you think they will make it"?
"I do, I know it is scary, but I think JR was scared this time. He almost lost both of them, and it scared him, and I think he really plans to change"
"I hope so Ellie, John Ross, and Sue Ellen are counting on him."
1 month later
Sue Ellen and JR were coming home from their last appointment to talk about their marital problems with the therapist. Sue Ellen was really proud of JR, he admitted he was to blame, but Sue Ellen knew she was also at fault, she came to realize she allowed JR to cheat, because she wasn't brave enough to fight him, or leave him. She vowed if he cheated or betrayed her ever again, it would be over. They realized it would be a fight they both would have to do together, they had to work on their marriage for them, and John Ross. He was finally happy, he admitted he had his days where he almost relapsed, but not because he wasn't happy, it was because he was an addict, and being around anyone drinking, or taking drugs, could draw him back in. He went to his meetings, and he loved working for Ray, and he told his Father, he probably will continue working around the Ranch. JR was ok, he said if he was ever ready Ewing Oil would be waiting for him. Sue Ellen, JR and John Ross took a long road of misery to reach a period in their lives, that they were happy. They really were going to fight to be the family they should have been all along, but they knew they never would be the perfect family, and they knew they needed to be their for each other to make it happen.
THE END.

Great update Jessie. OMG I LOVE it that Mrs. Williams told JR that he was a sex addict. I agree that JR is addicted to sex just like Sue Ellen is addicted to alcohol and John Ross is addicted to drugs. I hope that Mrs. Williams is going to be able to help JR.

Chapter 28
Dr Evans walked into John Ross's room, and over to his bed. John Ross was looking at a book, but he wasn't reading. The nurse said he wouldn't eat or talk to anyone. Dr. Evan's touched John Ross's hand, "John Ross look at me"?
John Ross didn't look at him, and Dr. Evan's, grabbed a chair, sitting beside his bed. "John Ross if you don't respond soon, we will have no choice but to send you to the other hospital. You have gotten through the withdrawal stage, but your in so much trouble, so is your Mother"
"My Mom, why my Mom"?
"She knows what happened with your Father , and that woman. He is seeing someone as we speak, Mrs. Williams is amazing. If anyone can get through to him, it is her".
"Oh great a Lady Psych Doctor for Daddy, he probably is making out with her as we speak".
"Excuse me, she is a married woman, that is sick John Ross".
"So is my Father, he can never change, how can my Mother love that man"?
"John Ross your parents love you , they both do. Their problems, shouldn't be part of yours. They really need to get their act together, but seeing you destroy yourself, is killing your Mother. She feels you are all she has left, if she lost you now, I don't know if she will survive that".
"I hurt her, she fell down the stairs because of me"
"She doesn't blame you, she blames the drugs John Ross".
"When I'm high, I forget all the pain, I hate seeing them destroy each other".
"John Ross, would you like to see your Mother, she really does need to see her boy"?
"Can I"?
"Come on", Dr. Evans got him into the wheelchair, and pushed him to her room. Sue Ellen was awake, she had been crying, the nurse said. John Ross saw her, and whispered, "Ma Ma". Sue Ellen tried to sit up, but cried out in pain. The nurse ran over, and John Ross got out of his chair. He barely could walk himself, but he grabbed her hand.
"Mom don't move your back".
"John Ross they wouldn't let me see you. I wanted to hold your hand, and let you know , I'm here for you".
"Mom, I'm so sorry Daddy hurt you again".
"I don't care anymore, he can have the other women. I want to be a Mother , and I want you better, and happy".
"Mom I want you to leave Dad, he doesn't deserve you".
"I love him John Ross, I know that". Sue Ellen was crying, John Ross whispered, "We can move away, and never see him again. We can take care of each other, we don't need him". Sue Ellen grabbed his hand, and said , "Ok".
John Ross and Sue Ellen jump when JR walked up behind them. "Like Hell, I'm letting you both go, I made mistakes, I admit that. I want to change, and I made the first step today. I was with a Doctor, that was so brutally honest, she made me realize, I really do have a problem. I know I'm the cause of both of your problems, but leaving me, won't make it better. I deserve another chance, can't you both give me this one last chance"? Sue Ellen looked at John Ross, and couldn't say anything, she didn't want to push John Ross away.
"JR me and John Ross should leave, we can't take it anymore. You won't change, because you don't think you have a problem. Words don't mean anything, if you don't believe them. I'm a alcoholic, and I'm addicted to you, I have loved you since the first day I met you. I thought you were going through this period , but you would eventually realize, I was the one you loved, but it never happened. I wanted to die every time you walked out the door, and I felt so sorry for myself, I wasn't the Mother I should be. I'm the person John Ross needed, and If I was healthy he never would have turned to drugs. He didn't have Parent's that put him first. I will now, I will do anything for John Ross, I won't let him down again".
JR was hurt, and angry, he wouldn't let them go. He looked at John Ross, and whispered, "Say you will forgive me John Ross, I need that please". John Ross was shaking, he wanted to run to his Father, and say he would, but he yelled, "I don't think I can forgive you Dad, I'm sorry".

Chapter 29
JR turned and walked to the door, but stopped, and walked back to them both.
"I love you both, I'm trying to make thing's right".
"Really Dad by having Sex with that Woman, why would you run to Marilee Stone, when Mom was suffering in this bed"?
"I was wrong, I felt sorry for myself, I was angry , and I thought about myself, I admit that"
"You thought about yourself, wow that is priceless Dad".
"John Ross I made mistakes, but what I did is between me, and your Mother not you". John Ross sat in his wheelchair, and whispered, "Take me out of here, or I will hurt him". Sue Ellen yelled, "No John Ross don't leave yet, your Father will go"
"No I won't who is running now John Ross, you or me? I ran away, and went to Marilee, I have a problem with sex ok I said it. You have a problem with Drugs, but can you sit here, and say it is all mine and your Mother's fault? You took those drugs , because you wanted to John Ross. I know you maybe saw to much between us, but we loved you. We would do anything for you, and we did"
"Money Dad, you didn't really show me love. Oh your usual good boy John Ross, you swam that lap amazing. Oh here is some money John Ross, go buy yourself a wonderful Birthday gift. Oh John Ross, I'm really proud of you, your grades are amazing. Oh John Ross, have you hooked up with a girl yet? I was stoned 90 per cent of the time, and neither of you knew it. If Christopher didn't tell, you both you still would be dealing with your own pathetic lives, not giving a darn about me. I'm sorry, I love you both but I'm tired of you. I would rather be drugged out, than watch you hurt Mom over and over. I heard her crying on more than one occasion, and Dad I heard the horrid names you called her. You are disgusting, how dare you call her anything, when you were the real Stud Dad, you were sick, and you made her feel so low, that she slept around. You drove her to it, everything is your fault, you don't deserve her, or anyone, you deserve to be alone, but it wouldn't be for long would it Dad"?. John Ross glared at JR, and than looked at his Mom.
Sue Ellen was staring at JR, she could see John Ross has made him angry. JR grabbed John Ross's wheelchair, and pulled it close to him. "I deserve your anger, but don't you dare talk to me like that again. If you want me out of your life, I can't help that. I have loved you , and I never thought I was such a bad Father. I know I was a horrible husband, but not a Father. I loved you , I gave you more love than my Daddy gave me. I wanted to be different, my Father was a wonderful man , but he was all business. I tried to be different, and looking back, I was and I'm proud of how, I was with you. I won't stop either of you from leaving, but I hope you will stay. The three of us together can be a family, I know it will take a lot of work. I'm willing to try, but I need you both to be willing to forgive me. If you want me to leave, just say it".
JR looked at Sue Ellen, she was crying, she loved JR, and she hated the thought of leaving him. He touched her hand, "Do you want me to go Sue Ellen"?
Sue Ellen looked at John Ross, who just stared at her. She whispered "John Ross, I love your Daddy, but I will leave, if you can't forgive him". John Ross turned, "God she loves you Dad, can't you see that"?
"Yes John Ross, I see it, I love her to, I always have". John Ross shut his eyes, and whispered, "I will try, but Dad if you are playing us, and you don't plan to change, walk out that door now, be man enough to do that". JR knelt down, and put his hand on John Ross's knee, "I don't want to lose you both, I swear I will change, and I will never hurt you both ever again".

Chapter 30
2 weeks later
JR walked into John Ross's room, and smiled as he had his bags packed waiting for him.
'John Ross your ready to go"?
"Yes I was ready 2 hours ago, I can't wait to go home"
"You know you have to come back for your treatments still"
"Yes Dad don't worry, I'm not planning on relapsing, I don't want to go through this hell again"
"Hey watch your Mouth".
"Ok Dad really". JR hugged him, and smiled, "You Mom will be coming home soon too, she is so happy you are feeling better".
"Dad you are still having your treatments with that Lady Doc right"?
'Yes John Ross, when your Mom is better , she is going to come with me".
"Dad I'm not perfect so don't pressure me too much. I'm going to take off a semester of school. The Doctor thinks it will be good for me. Dad I have something to say to you, will you listen without freaking out"?
"Ok don't scare me John Ross, I'm not letting you go out on your own yet. I want to make sure you are ok first".
"Dad I spoke with Uncle Bobby, he said I should be honest with you, and I agree. I think this might be part of the reason, I turned to drugs. I know you have your heart set on me helping you run Ewing Oil one day. I'm not saying I won't , but right now, I want to help Uncle Ray with the Ranch. I love the horses, and I always loved what he did. I'm not into the stuffy office job, and Oil doesn't interest me".
JR was shocked, and hurt he moved back, and John Ross could see he was upset. JR saw John Ross's face, and than realized, he couldn't run his life, if he didn't want to follow in his footsteps, he would have to deal with it. The thought of him helping Ray, made him ill, but it was a something John Ross needed right now. JR walked over, "I'm not going to lie, I'm not happy that you decided this, but if this is what you need to get healthy, I'm ok with it."
John Ross smiled, "I might change my mind one day, but probably not".
"Ok lets go say goodbye to Mom, and than get you home. The Family miss you like crazy"
"Oh Dad what about Grandpa Clayton, Christopher came the other day, and we were talking. He reminded me, I was a total idiot, talking to Grandpa Clayton so horribly. I really love him Dad, I love Grandpa Jock, but Grandpa Clayton is amazing too"
'He is fine, we talked he knew it was the drugs talking"
"Oh God, what else did I do on drugs, how many people do I have to say sorry too"?
"Oh everyone, but they love you John Ross, but not more than me , and your Mom"
"Lets go see her Dad, I hate leaving her here alone"
"I will come back later, she is making progress everyday. She is going to be well real soon, and than we can be the family, we should have been all along"
"Dad we will never forget the past, we shouldn't. We never should go back, but we all will need help we are addicts you know".
"Yes I know , I'm really proud of you John Ross. You have really tried, and the Doctors, are really happy with your success".
"I'm proud Dad, but I hope I'm strong enough, never to go back to that life"
"I really believe you won't, but you will be a addict the rest of your life. You have to grow up fast, you can't trade one addiction for another. You will have to watch your drinking too".
"Yes I know, lets hope my sex drive isn't like yours Dad"
JR smacked the back of his head, "Hey the past stays in the past John Ross".
"Sorry Dad, I couldn't resist, you know a addict is a addict for life, that goes for you too Dad".
"I know, lets go your Mom is probably worried that we are fighting". John Ross grabbed his bags, and JR took one, and smiled, "Love you John Ross, I always have loved you "
"I know Dad, me too". They walked out of the room, and went to Sue Ellen.

"John Ross"
"Yes Mom".
"You look happy, everything is ok right?"
"I'm great Mom, don't worry, I'm still having therapy, I will for a long time to come"

I LOVED this JR, Sue Ellen and John Ross story soo much. Thank you Sanda , I'm glad you enjoyed this story. It was one of my favourites to write. It isn't surprising John Ross turned to drugs, with his family the way they were. It is lucky it didn't happen on the show. Thanks again for reading all my stories.
