Chapter 5
They ordered their meals, their drinks came over. JR ordered a bourbon, but Jessie and Melinda only ordered a Diet Pepsi, they had to go back to work.
Jessie smiled, "JR tell us a bit about you". Melinda laughed, "I thought you were going to be quiet"?
"I was, but it is hard for me sorry". Jessie put her head down, JR whispered, "Jessie great question, I'm a Oil man, a great one , sorry if that is conceited but I'm the best. I'm divorced, I have a wonderful Son, who is 13 years old. I have done the dating thing, I want to find someone, I can connect with, but in a none sexual way. I don't have anything wrong with me, I'm just tired of that part of the relationship, I want something different"
"No Sex"?
JR smiled, "Melinda my article said no sex, are you not ok with that"?
"Yes, of course, I just haven't heard a man say that before".
"Well it is strange for me, you are beautiful Melinda, it will be hard. I want to just have a deep friendship with you, without ruining it by sleeping together".
"I'm fine with that really I am". Melinda said
Jessie smiled, "What if you get the urge to make love you will do it right"? JR sat back, "I don't want to think about that day Jessie, I want to focus, on what I want for myself at the moment".
"Wow I wish my boyfriends felt like you JR, they are always trying to get me in bed". Melinda coughed almost choking on her coffee. JR touched her arm, "Are you ok"?
"Yes, it is her, forgive her she is so outspoken, that wasn't lady like" JR laughed, "I find your friend refreshing, and I'm sure men are always trying to get in her pants". Melinda was shocked so was Jessie, they both stare at him. JR couldn't help but laugh, "I was joking around, but I'm sure they do".
"Can we go on a double date sometime "? Jessie asked
Melinda grabbed Jessie's arm, "We are not dating Jessie"
JR whispered, "Well me being here technically we are dating. This would be sort of our first date. I really like you Melinda, and I would like to see where this is going to go, that's if your ok with it"?
"Ok yes, you seem very nice"
"Ok our first offical date will be this friday. I would like to go on a double date with you sometime Jessie. I would like this friday to be the two of us only , if you don't mind"?
"I understand, where are you taking Melinda somewhere nice"?
"Jessie stop it".
"What it is a good question"?
"I'm going to take her to a Movie, something funny, than we can go to dinner, and than talk"
"Oh that sounds like a friend date"
Melinda laughed, "Jessie stop you are so going to get a lecture when we leave this restaurant".
JR smiled, "You two are comical together, your best friends right"?
"Yeah we are, we couldn't live without each other". JR smiled, "I can see that, I think that is sweet".
Jessie smiled, "You can't get mad at me Melinda, he thinks I'm sweet". Melinda laughed, "You are Jessie but your extremely annoying, but you know I love you".
"So no lecture after we leave here right"?
"No Lecture, lets eat we have to go back to work". JR smiled, and the three of them were eating. JR was asking Melinda questions, any question she was shy about answering Jessie didn't have a problem giving him the answer too. They all got up, JR paid, and they walked outside. JR smiled, "Can I have your number Melinda"?
"Oh I forgot". Jessie pulled out a pen, and smiled , "Open your hand". JR did, and she wrote it on the palm of his hand. You better not lose that number JR". He smiled, "I won't Jessie thank you". Jessie smiled, "I will wait in the car, you can kiss if you like"
"Jessie go now, I will be there in a minute". JR smiled, Jessie ran over, and Melinda looked at JR. "I'm sorry for that, you don't have to kiss me". JR moved over kissing her lips lightly, and whispered, "Friday Melinda, it was a pleasure meeting you". JR was walking away, he waved at Jessie she waved back. Melinda walked to the car, and Jessie smiled as she got in the car. "Melinda how was the kiss"?
" Sweet Jessie"
"Sweet is that all"?
"Yes it was perfect". Melinda started the car, and Jessie grinned. "OH Melinda likes JR, I can see it girl"
"Do you want a lecture Jessie"?
"No, I will be quiet, but you do" Melinda drove off, she couldn't help but Laugh, Jessie was something, but she didn't want to admit it, but she was falling for JR fast, and that wasn't like her.

CHAPTER 6
Friday the day of JR's and Melinda first date
Melinda was at work, she couldn't concentrate, and Jessie wasn't helping. She was over in her office, all day talking about the date. Melinda had her dress picked out, and her nails done. Jessie was so excited, Melinda had to grab her shoulders, "Jessie calm down, your more excited about this date, than I am".
"Your not excited JR is one hot looking man"?
"He might be hot Jessie, but we are not having that kind of date remember. We are becoming friends, not lovers "
Jessie smiled, "Oh like it won't turn into that in no time. You will be hot for each other I give it 2 dates". Melinda got up, "Go to your desk, and do some work girl".
"Melinda you didn't ask me how I felt about my date"?
"Oh Sorry Jessie, I know you will have fun, but be careful".
"You mean no sex"?
"Yes make him court you, don't let him take advantage".
'Ok Mom".
"Jessie go now".
"Melinda call me after your date, no matter how late ok".
"Ok go work, or we will be fired".
"I know you wasted the whole day Girl". Jessie giggled, Melinda yelled, 'You are so annoying girl". They both worked, but when 3pm came around they were up, and running out of the office. They went to their cars, and waved, and drove home. Melinda got to the house, she ran upstairs showering. She came out with a towel wrapped around her. The phone was ringing, she jumped over the bed, almost landing on the floor. She didn't want to miss JR's call.
"Hello"
"Melinda".
"Jessie you almost got me killed, I ran for the phone, half naked"
"Oh is JR there"?
"No he isn't coming until 7".
"I just want to wish you luck, I know JR is the one".
"You have fun to Jessie, talk to you later". Melinda hung up, she laughed, she hoped everything went well for Jessie. She got dressed, put some light make up on, and pulled her hair up. She looked in the mirror. She smiled, she looked nice, she didn't want to lay it on thick the first date. She looked at her watch it was 6:45, JR would be here any moment. She ran downstairs, she got her jacket ready, when she heard him knock at the door. She walked over, taking her time, she didn't want to appear desperate. She opened the door, "Hello JR, your right on time"
"I always am, you look lovely".
"Thank you JR, you look quite handsome".
JR smiled, "Are you ready Melinda, I have reservations for 7:30"?
"Yes she grabbed her jacket, and they walked to the car. He opened the door, and she got in. JR walked around, and he got in starting the car. They drove to the restaurant, and he opened the door, and they went inside. They went to the table, it was a beautiful restaurant, not overly romantic in appearance. He smiled, "would you like me to order you some wine"?
'Yes please", the waiter took their order for drinks, and walked away. JR was a little nervous so was Melinda.
"JR how was your day at work"?
"Busy, and yours"?
"Oh it was different, Jessie drove me crazy more than usual".
"You both are comical together, she is sweet".
"Yes, she is". Melinda smiled, JR whispered, "We have to loosen up Melinda, tell me what you like to do for fun"?
"Me, I pretty much stay home, I love going to the movies. I love reading, watching TV, writing, and I love going for walks on the beach. I go all the time alone, but it would be fun, if we could do that one day". JR smiled, "I would love that, maybe one day, I can show you Southfork, we have a pond . It is so beautiful over there, it is one of my favourite places to be".
Melinda smiled, "Sounds romantic JR, a Pond on your land".
"Yeah it can be romantic, but we could just go have a nice picnic, and talk". Melinda smiled, "She wanted to go slow, but she was a little sad that she might never get to make love to JR. She had to forget that, she knows what he wants, and she wasn't going to disappoint him.

Chapter 7
Melinda and JR were at the restaurant, JR was drinking a bourbon, and Melinda was drinking a singapore sling. They were laughing, having a wonderful time. She couldn't believe how sweet JR was.
"Melinda I can't believe your single, you are so amazing, and I feel so comfortable talking to you"
"I feel the same way JR"
"Well I haven't always been a talker normally I was a player. I'm being honest but I want a different relationship. I want to get to know you , I want to have fun without all the mess of sex complicating our relationship. Don't you dare get me wrong you are desirable to desirable really but this is what I want. I don't want you to get hurt, can you really deal with this kind of relationship"?
"Yes I think I can , thanks for explaining everything to me"
"Well I was not a nice person, one day I woke up , and wanted a change. I want someone in my life, but I want a true friendship, do you understand"
"Yes I do"
JR touched her hand, "Lets order dinner what would you like"?
"Well what is good here JR"?
"Everything but I love the steak, and mashed potatoes"
"Sounds good maybe I will try that too"
"Good I hate when women order salads, it drives me crazy"
"Why"?
"Because I know they want to act like they are light eaters, they probably go home, and pig out on chocolate after I leave"
"Probably but I love salads, so if I order one it is because I enjoy them"
"Well we could have a Caesar salad with our dinner if you like"?
"I would love it"
"Great see we are meant to be together". The waitress came over, they ordered their dinners, and than JR asked Melinda if she wanted to dance. She smiled, "Sure but I'm not the best dancer to tell you the truth"
"Me either but lets give it a go, if we step on each others toes, we will look the other way' Melinda smiled as he put his hand out to her, and they walked to the dance floor together. They smile as "Endless love " was playing. He moved close as she leaned her head on his shoulder. He smelled so good, and he felt so good in her arms. She hasn't been on a real date in months, so this was a treat. She felt him pull her closer, and she thought to herself that she couldn't resist him, but she had to. He whispered, "This is a beautiful song"
"Yes it is"
Melinda shut her eyes, she was so overwhelmed. This was a dream come true, but she knew she was getting ahead of herself. She just hoped her friend Jessie was having a wonderful time too.
Across town
Jessie was sitting with her date, she smiled as he asked her if she wanted another drink?
"No thanks one is good enough"
"Really you are boring, I love a girl who lives a little"
"Alcohol doesn't make you happier, my Dad was a alcoholic so I saw it first hand"
"Oh Jessie lets not talk about that, lets talk about us"
"We just met what about us"?
"Well what is going to happen after we leave here"?
"Oh God you are not asking me if I'm going to take the next step are you"?
"We are adults, I like getting everything out in the open. I'm not wasting my time on someone that isn't the same way. Do you like me enough to spend the night with me or not"?
Jessie almost choked on her drink, but she smiled, "I'm not doing this maybe this is a bad idea"
"What you want to leave"?
"Yeah I will get a cab, I have never been treated with so much disrespect in my life"
"Really Jessie sit down, I brought you here, I'm taking you home"
"No, I can afford a cab". Jessie went to get up, but he yelled, "Sit down don't make a scene or you will be sorry". Jessie sat down staring at him, but she looked around seeing everyone staring.
'Good girl now have your drink, our food will be here in a minute"
Jessie wanted to cry but she wasn't going to give him the satisfaction to see it. She picked up the menu, and tried to calm down.

Melinda you missed the last update, just thought I would let you know.
Chapter 8
Melinda and JR were dancing, they were dancing to the song from Titanic. Celine Dion , "My heart will go on". They were moving so slow he was holding Melinda so tenderly, as they moved across the dance floor. She smiled as he touched her cheek with his thumb, and whispered, "Tonight has been amazing Melinda thank you"
"I know JR this has been the most amazing date , I have ever been on"
He smiled as he hugged her, as he they continued dancing. They danced for several songs, and walked to the table, and sat down. It was getting late, but they didn't want this night to end. They ordered another drink, they didn't have to worry, JR said he was calling a limo to take them home. Melinda jumped as her cell phone went off.
She lifted it up, "Oh God JR it is Jessie you don't mind if I answer do you"?
"Of course not it might be important".
"Hello"
"Melinda" She could hear Jessie crying, she whispered, "Jessie what is wrong"?
"Help me , I'm scared"
"Where are you"?
"Ben's that restaurant on main, he is so horrible Melinda, I'm scared to go home with him, but he said I have to. I'm calling from the washroom, please help me"
"Shh I will be there don't you leave no matter what don't leave"
"I'm sorry"
"Shh Jessie I'm coming promise"
"Hurry Melinda". Melinda grabbed her purse, I have to go to Jessie her date is scaring her, I have to go."
"I will come to Melinda". They paid, and ran out the limo was waiting for them. They told the driver to go to Ben's on Main, and he left. Melinda was shaking, "I never heard her so scared JR, what if he makes her leave"?
"She will stay there I'm sure"
"She never has luck with men, they all are jerks"
"Melinda we will get to her, calm down"
"I swear I will kill that guy if he hurt her, she is my best friend. I act like she bugs me sometimes, but I wouldn't know what to do if something happened to her"
"Melinda there is Ben's lets go inside".
Melinda told the lady at the front she came for her friend. She pointed to the table, she whispered, "That guy is a total idiot, thank God someone came to get her out of here". JR and Melinda walked over, and Jessie saw them, and got up.
Kevin yelled, "Sit down, we are finishing our drink"
"No she is coming with us Kevin"
"Melinda right she is my date so take off with yours"
"Melinda please don't leave me"
Kevin smiled, "What Jessie you stupid Tramp, I spend all this money on you, and you want to run away with her"
JR walked over, "Watch your mouth or I will break your teeth"
"Oh cowboy get your hands off of me"
Melinda grabbed JR, "Lets go JR, I don't want trouble". Jessie grabbed her purse but Kevin kicked the table making her lose her balance. She went right into Melinda, and JR walked over punching him in the face. He turned throwing money on the table, "I paid for her lose her number". Melinda grabbed Jessie come on, Kevin yelled, "Jessie you owe me, I will collect". JR ran back but Melinda yelled, "No he isn't worth it". JR wrapped his arm around Jessie and Melinda, and walked out. Kevin looked around, "What are you all looking at"?
Some people laugh making Kevin get up, and he walked out.
JR put Melinda, and Jessie in the cab, and said they were spending the night at Southfork. Jessie was to upset to say anything, she just cried, while Melinda whispered, "It will be ok Jess"

Chapter 9
Melinda, JR and Jessie got to Southfork, JR took them inside. Melinda said that Jessie should lay down, she was really upset.
"Of course I will take you up to the guest room, would you like to stay with her"?
"Yes thanks". JR took them upstairs, but Bobby came out of his room, as they got upstairs. Bobby was the only one home, Christopher was at Cliff's place, John Ross was with Sue Ellen, Miss Ellie and Clayton were away. Bobby walked over, "JR what is going on"?
"This is my date Melinda, and her friend Jessie. They are spending the night, Jessie date was a real idiot, they can't be alone tonight. They are sleeping in the guest room Bobby don't worry, I didn't bring two ladies here for a party"
"JR please I didn't think that"
"Yes you did but I told you I have changed."
Bobby walked over, "Jessie you OK, I'm sorry you had a bad night"
"I have had bad dates but he was the worst, I don't think there is any good men in this world".
Melinda smiled, "I'm sorry she is just upset, she didn't mean that"
Bobby smiled, "Maybe she needs a nice cup of tea. JR why don't you , and Melinda get it for her. I will take her to her room". Jessie looked at JR, he smiled, "That is a great idea Jessie. You don't have to worry about this guy, he is a perfect gentleman".
"OK"
Melinda smiled, "You OK really Jessie"?
"Yes Melinda but hurry OK"
"I will" JR and Melinda went downstairs, while Jessie followed Bobby to the room. She smiled, "Wow this is bigger than my whole place"
"Yes Southfork is beautiful"
"You are very kind Bobby, where is your wife"?
"Oh I'm single it is a long story"
Jessie walked over sitting on the bed, "I thought that guy was going to rape me, he had that look"
"Was this your first date"?
"Yeah, but he said I will pay for this. I'm so afraid but the police won't do anything, but make him more upset"
"Well I personally think the Police should be told"
"Maybe"
He sat beside her, "You are safe here don't worry". She smiled at Bobby he was the most handsomest man she ever set her eyes on. She turned away she knew she shouldn't think that way.
Melinda was standing by the counter as JR was getting the tea ready.
"JR this is so kind of you to bring us here"
"I couldn't leave you out there with that guy so angry"
"Well we will see when we go to work how angry he is. If he doesn't leave us alone we will call the police"
"Melinda tonight was so beautiful, I'm so sorry it was ruined by that creep"
"I'm glad Jessie called JR, she is my best friend"
"Oh no I know that , I'm glad we went to her. He was out of control she would have been hurt for sure"
"JR you are so sweet"
JR put the teacup down, and walked around the counter, and touched her face. "You bring the best out in me"
She touched his cheek, but he pulled away making Melinda jump.
"What I was just going to kiss you"?
"Melinda I'm feeling something that I shouldn't. I want this to be a true love without all that romantic stuff. I want us to bond but not due to sex you understand that right"?
"Yes you said that already"
"I want to kiss you so bad, but I'm weak it won't be enough. I will want to carry you upstairs, and I want to respect you like the lady you are"
"Maybe I wouldn't mind you kissing me, and seeing where it goes"
"No please, Melinda everything is perfect lets not ruin it". He walked over turning his back to her. She wanted to go , and wrap his arms around him, but she knew it wasn't the right time.

Chapter 10
JR and Melinda walked into the bedroom with the tea. Bobby stood up, "I guess I should leave you guys alone"
"No you can stay if you like" Jessie said and Melinda smiled she could see Jessie was already liking Bobby a lot.
"You need to rest both of you, maybe me and JR should leave you alone"
JR smiled, "I think Bobby is right, but what should I give them to wear to bed"?
Bobby smiled, "Sue Ellen left lots of clothes in this closet, but if you like I have some t-shirts you can wear"
"That would be great Bobby, but I don't want to wear Sue Ellen's things". Melinda said
JR smiled, "She doesn't want them you can have them if you want. She probably wore them once only anyway". Jessie got up, but Melinda touched her arm, "No thanks we wouldn't want to impose"
Jessie smiled, "Yes she is right that wouldn't be right"
"Suit yourself she has some nice things that will be going to charity real soon"
"Well that would be fine, we don't need charity" Melinda said JR could see she was upset. He walked over, "Are we ok"?
"Yeah fine your right we need to rest, we will see you in the morning". JR touched her cheek, "Ok I'm right across the hall if you need me". Bobby walked in carrying two t-shirts , and handed them to Melinda.
"Thanks Bobby"
"No problem see you tomorrow morning, we can have breakfast together"
"Thank you Bobby" Jessie walked over , and gave him a hug. He kissed her forehead, and walked over giving Melinda a kiss on the cheek. He walked out, JR walked to the door, "Goodnight"
"Goodnight JR". He left Jessie smiled, "What is going on are you angry"?
"No why would you say that"?
"The room just got mighty cold, you treated him bad"
"Jessie mind your own business lets get some sleep"
Melinda walked to the bathroom, and went inside. Jessie sat on the bed she hated when Melinda was angry with her. She felt like crying but she didn't want to act like a baby. Melinda walked out of the bathroom. "Jessie your not ready for bed what is the matter"?
"I'm sorry your angry at me, I didn't have anyone else to call"
"What I'm not angry about that, I'm glad you called"
"You seem upset, I know I ruined your date, but I was so scared"
"You didn't ruin anything, I'm not angry with you Sweetie"
'Promise"
Melinda smiled, "I was just upset with JR, I went to kiss him downstairs, and he freaked out"
"Why"?
"He doesn't want the romance he just wants a friend. I understand the sex part but a kiss"?
"Maybe he is afraid he will want more than a kiss. I think he is a little strange but maybe he is trying Melinda"
"I really like him Jessie a lot but I felt so rejected it hurt"
"Oh I'm so sorry"
"You like Bobby what happened while we were gone"
"Nothing but he is a gentleman, and so cute"
"Yeah the Ewing's are cute"
"He is single Melinda do you think maybe I could stand a chance with someone like him"?
"Why not your just as good as a Ewing"?
"I know but I don't pick the right guys "
"No you don't I knew he was a creep Jessie. I think Bobby likes you to but take it easy, let him make the first move"
"I will but don't blow this with JR Melinda I'm sure he will come around. He is really mysterious something happened in his past to make him this way. I think maybe he is the one for you Melinda, finally one of us is getting it right"
"Yeah but I love romance I didn't think he would freak out over a simple kiss"
"I bet he is thinking about that kiss right this moment, and I bet he is regretting not taking the chance, and see where it would lead."
"You think so"?
"I know so" Melinda hugged Jessie, "Get your t-shirt on, and drink your tea"
"Ok" Jessie stood up, "Oh I'm wearing Bobby's t-shirt do you think I can keep it"?
"Jessie stop be good"
She smiled, and ran into the bathroom, and shut the door. Melinda laid back, she hoped Jessie was right, she hoped JR was thinking about her right this moment.
JR was in his room, he changed into this night clothes. He sat on the bed, and he wanted to get up, and walk over to the guest room, and pick up Melinda , and tell her how much he loved his time with her. He knew a kiss wouldn't hurt but he knew if he kissed her he would want more, and that scared him. He hoped she didn't push him away, because right this moment he was falling for her big time, and if she walked away he knew it would hurt.
