Chapter 23
Lucy and John Ross were walking, and John Ross wasn't really talking. Lucy stopped, "John Ross, talk to me"
"Lucy why aren't you mad at your Parents, and my Dad"?
"Oh I was but I have to let my anger go, or it will hurt me not just them"
" Your Mom is not nice Lucy"
"Oh she is she made a big mistake, she must have been so scared. She loves my Daddy so much, and doesn't want to lose him".
"She loves your Daddy, she wants to take him from my Mom"?
"Oh John Ross, I'm talking about Gary, he is my Daddy"
"You are confusing me, my Dad is your Dad"
"Your Daddy is my Father, but my Parents are my Mom and Dad. Your Daddy didn't know about this John Ross. He was shocked, so we have to give him a break"
"Why was he shocked, he was bad going with your Mother"?
"Yes he was but sometimes Grown ups do stuff we kids don't understand"
"Is my Mom your Mom too Lucy"?
"No she isn't my Mom, but I really love your Ma Ma John Ross".
" I'm sorry , I don't like your Mom". Lucy smiled hugging John Ross, "that is fine, but do me a huge favor".
"What Lucy"?
"Don't say that to her, she is not feeling well Sweetie. She really is a great lady John Ross, and she really likes you ".
"Ok I will try, and be nice to her, but it might be hard Lucy".
"Well that is all I can ask, John Ross you know I always loved you. I felt a connection to you, since the day you were born. I guess the bond was because we are half brother and Sister".
'That sounds weird, which half of you is my Sister"? John Ross smiled. Lucy hugged him, "can I have a big hug from my Little Brother"?
" Ok, but remember, I don't like hugging, it is kind of not cool". Lucy smiled, " yeah it is John Ross, how about we go back to the house, and have a bunch of cookies".
"Ok, beat you back, Sis". John Ross started to run, and Lucy smiled, " she always wanted a little brother or Sister, it was pretty amazing, John Ross turned out to be her brother, after all these years. John Ross yelled, "Lucy come on, I want to have my cookies, before dinner". She ran and yelled, "Slow down John Ross, I can't run that fast". They got to the house, running into the kitchen, getting milk and cookies.
Upstairs, Sue Ellen was sitting with Valene, who was crying. "I'm so sorry, I made a mistake coming here after all these years. I just thought it was unfair, if I died, and kept this secret, I was doing something really evil. I love Gary, and I know I have hurt him so much. He loves Lucy, and I know they will always be close. I took his little girl from him , and I hate myself for that".
"You didn't take her away, Gary loves her, he has come around"
" He has, he has been amazing, but inside Gary holds everything in"
"We all do don't we"?
"Sue Ellen can you forgive me for this"?
" I hated you , but I realized this was before I knew JR. I don't have a right to judge, but I agree with you , it really hurt after all these years. You hurt Gary, and I feel for him, but you hurt JR too. He lost out knowing Lucy was his, and she hated him, all these years. She blamed him for taking her from you and Gary, and you handed her over to him. Why didn't you tell him years ago, maybe their relationship would be different"?
"How could I without telling Gary, would he stay with me"?
"Maybe you and JR would have hit it off, and he would of done the right thing and married you"
" I didn't want JR, we just had that one night Sue Ellen. I swear after that day, I never wanted to be with him again".
"I have made mistakes Valene, whatever your reason was, it is your business".
"Sue Ellen I'm sorry about John Ross, he is so confused".
"Yes, me and JR will have a better talk with him. I hope Lucy helps him, she really is amazing with him. She has loved him , and he loves her. I think this will make them closer, maybe that will be the only good thing to come out of this".
Valene smiled, and Sue Ellen whispered, "lets go get a tea, I could use one". They both got up, and went downstairs.

Chapter 24
Sue Ellen and Valene went down for some tea. They went into the dining room, and Lucy and John Ross were sitting there. John Ross went to get up, but Sue Ellen touched his shoulders. "John Ross please stay". He sat down, looking at the table, when Valene sat down beside Lucy. Sue Ellen went into the kitchen to get their tea's. Valene whispered, "John Ross, I'm so sorry I upset you. I never wanted to hurt anyone, but I had to tell the truth".
Sue Ellen walked out with the tea's, handing one to Valene. She sat beside John Ross.
He smiled, "Lucy explained Adults are stupid sometimes". Sue Ellen choked on her tea, she looked at Lucy.
"John Ross, I said Parents do stuff that kids don't understand, but your right they do stupid stuff sometimes". Sue Ellen put her tea down, "Yes we do, but what happened was so long ago, maybe you can forgive Aunt Valene, and Daddy".
"Daddy she was wrong"?
"John Ross your to young to understand, you love your Daddy. He has made mistakes, and so have I. What happened was wrong, but we can't take back that day, and we don't want to."
"What Mom, your confusing me"?
"Something really special happened, we all were blessed with Lucy. She turns out to be your half sister, that is pretty cool. You love Lucy you told me that all the time. So lets get along and forget who is to blame, and who isn't?
"Mom your not mad at Aunt Valene"?
"Oh I was, but I realized, I wasn't in the picture at that time, I have no right to be angry".
Lucy smiled, "Why don't the four of us, go for a swim"? John Ross jumped up, "can we Mom"?
"Sure run up, and get changed, I will be up in a minute". John Ross ran upstairs, so excited. Valene sipped her tea, "wow that went pretty well, don't you think"?. Lucy smiled, "Mom I love you". Lucy hugged Valene, and stood up, walking over to Sue Ellen. "What you said to John Ross, I will never forget, forgive me for all the years, I made your life hell". Lucy, hugged Sue Ellen, and ran upstairs, to get changed. Valene smiled, "she loves us both, you can help her after, I'm gone".
"Don't say that Valene, have you and Gary decided what your going to do"?
"He wants to stay, I wouldn't mind, but it is up to you and JR really".
"Me and JR, what do you mean"?
"Can you both stand having me around"?
"Valene I'm fine, JR with Gary might be the problem". Valene laughs, "Yeah your right, lets go get changed, or the kids will be yelling at us." Sue Ellen and Valene got up, and went upstairs.
Ben's Diner
JR and Gary were sitting at a booth, JR ordered a beer, and Gary had a ginger ale. They both were basically having small talk, when JR smiled, "Gary did you want to say something to me"?
"What no I just wanted a good burger"
"Yeah we have a BBQ at home, you didn't want to spend the afternoon with me, just talking about the weather".
"JR you really hurt me, I never ever thought you and Valene, would ever do something like this to me"
"It happened so long ago Gary, I regretted that day so did Valene"
"I know it was my fault, what was I thinking about taking Marilee into the Stables"?
"Oh I know what you were thinking Gary".
Gary smiled, " I know, she was your girl, but she was bad JR"
"Yeah I know, we all were I guess that day".
" JR , Lucy is my daughter, I don't care what her DNA says".
"I know Gary, I'm not going to take her from you. I couldn't if I tried, she loves you and Valene".
" I think she is starting to see a side of you, that she could like JR."
"Gary are you and Valene staying at Southfork, or are you going back home"?
"I was thinking about staying, I know Ma Ma would love it".
" Ma Ma would love it, of course she would, your her little cuddle bunny"
"JR she hasn't used that since I was a child".
"You lie she was sitting with you 2 night ago. You were in the living room, and she was talking to you. You both didn't see me, but you wrapped your arms around her. She called you her little cuddle bunny. I thought I was going to piss myself laughing, Gary you really are the apple of her eye".
"She was mad at me this week, can I help it she loves me the best"?
" Oh I'm telling Bobby, he thinks he is the # 1 son". JR giggled. Gary look at JR, "You know Ma Ma loves you too JR"?
"What I'm ok she called me the black sheep one day. I thought it was kind of funny, but it hurt".
"Why do you think Daddy hated me JR"?
"Daddy didn't hate you, he hated that you were a Ma Ma's boy. I wasn't his favourite, I was the one that listened to him. Bobby was the sports guy, he started to come around, but you never did. You would do everything in your power to go against Daddy Gary. You didn't want anything to do with Ewing Oil, that killed him. "Why did you do that to him Gary"?
"I didn't want to be like you JR, you weren't really happy".
JR put his beer down, and they both just stared at each other.

Chapter 25
JR stared at Gary, "You really think I wasn't happy growing up"?
"No, I don't , I think you would do anything for Daddy".
"Yes, you are right I would do anything for him".
"JR look at me be honest, why did you hate me growing up"?
"Hate you, I didn't hate you, I envied you actually"
"What you envied me, OMG JR what for"?
"You had Ma Ma, she loved you so much, but you didn't treasure that love"
"Treasure it, I loved Ma Ma"
"Yeah, but you took advantage of that love too. Daddy and Ma Ma would fight over you all the time. Daddy hated that you just walked away from everything, and started a new life somewhere else. I didn't have a childhood, but I don't blame Ma Ma or Daddy, but sometimes I wanted to walk away. I would watch you, Bobby and Ma Ma together going for your walks. I had to sit in the den, and listen to Daddy talk shop talk , but all the while, I wanted to be out with you guys. I think I resented you all, but I was grateful, because Daddy showed me the business, and he made me want to run Ewing Oil. I deserved it, I was the one, who gave up everything, not you or Bobby. I heard Ma Ma on many occasions, trying to get you back , and in Southfork. You promise me you will never ever tell Ma Ma this Gary"
'I won't promise JR"
"I heard her tell Daddy once, if kicking me off Southfork would bring you back, she would do it".
"Ma Ma said that JR, I don't believe it"?
"Yeah she did, that hurt me more than anything anyone ever said to me. I was 21 years old, and my own Mother would kick me out of the house"
'She wouldn't she loves you, but you make it hard for people to love you JR"
"Yeah, I guess your right, I almost lost Sue Ellen because I became a selfish jerk".
Gary smiled, "Oh JR, now I never thought I would hear that coming out of your mouth".
"Me either but I was, but I'm trying to get better. I'm really sorry you were hurt Gary, but what happened that night, was a mistake. I'm not sorry Lucy was brought into the world , she is our little girl. She will always love you Gary, and I hope me and Lucy can be friends in the future".
"Lucy is starting to love you too JR, but she is my girl".
"I would never try to take your spot Gary, I promise".
"I believe you, but I hope you and Lucy bond, she will need us both when something happens to Valene"
"I'm so sorry about that Gary, you both should move back to Southfork"
"I wouldn't mind, but do you want me to come back to Ewing Oil"?
"Oh no, Gary Ray needs help around Southfork".
Gary smiled, "JR I was a little jealous of you too JR, Daddy really admired you".
" He was proud of my work, but my family values, not so much Gary".
"You were a player JR, bad to the bone".
"Oh you were bad too Gary, who was playing in the barn with Marilee"?
"Can I blame the booze"?
"Lets not talk about that night again, lets go home and see our family". JR got up, putting the money on the table, and they both left to go home.

Chapter 26
JR and Gary got home seeing the family outside. Lucy ran over hugging Gary, than she smiled at JR. "I was so worried, I thought you both would kill each other."
"No, we had a great talk Lucy", Gary smiled
JR walked over hugging Sue Ellen, and Valene came out of the house. John Ross ran over , Lucy race you in the pool". Lucy smiled, "Your on John Ross, Christopher can race too". They all ran over to the pool, and dived in swimming. JR and Gary were cheering them on. Lucy was losing, she couldn't keep up with the boys. John Ross won, and he jumped out of the pool, so excited. Gary whispered, "That is your boy, he is proud of himself JR".
"Yeah, that was pretty amazing, did you see him go"?
"Yeah he is a fast poor Lucy isn't". Lucy jumped out of the pool, "I heard that Daddy, thanks".
JR touched her shoulder, "It isn't the win that is important, it is that you tried in the first place". Everyone was looking at JR, and he cracked up laughing, "Ok I love the win, sue me".
Valene and Sue Ellen brought out snacks. John Ross and Christopher ran over grabbing the chips, and soft drinks. Lucy sat beside her Mom, "how are you feeling Ma Ma"?
"Ok, tired, this has been a really long day".
"Mom you know I love you right"?
'Yes, I know that , I was worried you would never forgive me".
" I thought I might never forgive you too".
" Your really treating JR pretty deceit Lucy. I'm really proud of you".
"He has been pretty amazing Ma Ma".
"Yes, he has, he hasn't pushed himself on you. He is really respecting Gary, which is strange".
John Ross yelled, "Lucy come here, watch this".
"Go Lucy, I'm fine, go see what he wants. He adores you Lucy, I think he is proud you are his sister".
"Mom, I always felt a bond with John Ross, that is strange don't you think"?
"No, it isn't strange, you better go, he is looking over". Lucy ran over, "Ok John Ross I'm coming". Valene looked over seeing Lucy and John Ross by the pool. Sue Ellen was with Christopher, and JR and Gary were talking. Valene got up, walking into the house. Sue Ellen saw her, and told Christopher to go see what Lucy and John Ross were doing. Sue Ellen went into the house, and followed Valene upstairs. She heard her getting sick, and she walked into the room. Valene was standing by the sink, she could barely stand up. Sue Ellen walked in, "Oh Valene".
"Help me to the bed, I'm feeling dizzy". Sue Ellen helped her, and sat her down. She smiled, "Oh I thought I would have more time with Gary and Lucy, but it is happening so fast Sue Ellen".
"No, we will get you to the hospital".
"Sue Ellen, they can't do anything for me. This is what they told me to expect, please don't tell Gary and Lucy yet".
"Why they have a right to know they love you Valene"?
"I know, but they are happy right now, please give me a couple of days. I will tell them promise, but when I feel the time is right".
"Of course, I won't say anything Valene". She laid Valene back, and she whispered, "What can I do to help you Valene"?
"Just be a friend, can you stay with me until I fall asleep".?
"Of course, I'm right here".

Chapter 27
Sue Ellen stayed until Valene fell asleep, she put the blanket over her and left. She shut the door, when Gary walked up to her. "Sue Ellen is Valene ok"?
"Yes, she is sleeping, try not to wake her". Sue Ellen started to walk away, but Gary whispered, "what am I going to do Sue Ellen"?
"What do you mean'?
"I don't want to lose Valene, we haven't had the easiest life you know. I love her but now I'm not going to have much time to show her just how much". Sue Ellen walked over holding his hands. "Yes you have time, she needs you right now Gary. I don't know what your feeling, but I do know she loves you too".
"She is getting worse isn't she, I heard her getting sick this morning"?
"Gary you have to talk to her, it is not my place".
"Oh God why her, it isn't fair, she is so young"?
"I don't know why these things happen Gary"?
"Am I going to lose them both, JR and Lucy are getting so close" ?Sue Ellen can see tears coming to his eyes.
"Gary Lucy is your daughter, she loves you and Valene. She might grow to love JR, but you are her Daddy".
"You really think that Sue Ellen"?
"Yes Gary", he hugged her, "thank you, I needed that". Sue Ellen smiled, as Gary went in to see Valene. He walked over sitting beside her, holding her hand. Valene opened her eyes, "oh Gary, I was just having a nap". Gary could see she was weak, and he knew in his heart he wasn't going to have much more time with her. He touched her cheek, and smiled, "I love you Valene, I always have".
"I know Gary, you don't have to say that".
"I know I don't but I want to". Gary laid beside her, pulling her close, and he snuggled into her. She loved feeling Gary in her arms. It has been awhile since, they were this close. She shut her eyes, and fell asleep, in his arms.
John Ross , Christopher and Lucy were by the pool with JR. They were splashing having a great time. JR couldn't believe how close the three of them were. He couldn't believe all these years, he had a daughter, but never knew. John Ross ran over getting JR all wet, "Daddy can you take the three of us to a movie"?
"I don't know maybe Lucy has other plans tonight".
"I would love it as long as it isn't a horror movie".Lucy smiles
JR smiled, "I hate them too, something funny would be great". John Ross giggled, "You both are wimps, but lets go see a funny movie".
"Go see what movie is playing at the cinema down the street". John Ross and Christopher ran into the house. JR smiled, "I know you did that for them Lucy, that was sweet of you".
"I love being with them, it will be fun".
"Yes it will , maybe Sue Ellen and your Parents can come"?
"We can ask, but my Mom is really weak JR, I'm going to lose her" Lucy started to cry, and JR got up hugging her. "I'm so sorry, Lucy, but you still have time with her".
"JR do you think she would have told us , if she wasn't sick"?
"I don't know, maybe"?
"I don't think she would have".
"We know now, I'm glad she told me".
" I love my Daddy , but I really want to give us a chance. I wouldn't mind having two Dad's, just think of the Birthday gifts, Christmas gifts I will get". JR smiled, "You have been spoiled all your life, but thank you for saying that Lucy. It means the world to me, your willing to give us a chance".
"Don't say, I'm not generous". Lucy hugged JR, and walked into the house. JR sat down, and he smiled, never in a million years, did he think Lucy would welcome him into her life.
