Chapter 75

“What did you do to the poor asshole? Is he without a job or did you put the mob up his ass?”

“There will be a correction in the newspaper tomorrow. I just helped him see the light, that’s all.”

“Ohhh shit that doesn’t sound good. If a guy sees the light he’s a goner! Didn’t your mama ever explained the light thing to you bro’?”

“Well he is gonna be if I don’t see the article in the newspaper tomorrow.”

Jon’s smile didn’t fool anyone.

“What did Dot say? Did she throw a hissy fit?”

“Naaaw, she was quite humoured by it all and she would like to meet you.”

“Meet me, why?”

“Well she has to meet the woman her kids would have to get used to, now that their father is dating again? Doesn’t she?”

Cheyenne gasped and looked at Jon’s goofy expression.

“You didn’t just say that! Oh God Jon, you can just say things like that, it’s not funny!”

Richie laid back and made himself comfortable.

Well this can get interesting…

“Well, I can’t just tell her you’re an acquaintance, with my hand wrapped around your ass like that! We were married for 18 years, she knows that look on my face, it’s the first thing she mentioned. The horny look on my face, so yeah I had to think of something!”

“Oh, Chey honey your in for it now!”

“I think I’m going to lay down for a while.”

Cheyenne stood up and went to her room.

“She’s pissed!”

“She will get over it.”

“So I guess it official then? Mr. Jon Bon Jovi is dating again? “

“Yeah, seems like it.”

“Fucking great now I need a cute little thing to keep me happy!”

“For a rockstar you are fucking pathetic you know that, don’t ya?”

“Noooo, I just saw what you found asshole, and with my charm and sex appeal I know I can get just as good! Hell if ya don’t watch out I’ll take what’s yours ..so be prepared bro’ and keep your eyes peeled.” Richie flashed Jon his perfect white teeth. Jon flipped him the bird and smiled back but for some reason that warning planted itself in Jon’ mind..

The days went by quickly and Cheyenne’s strength grew. She still had horrible nightmares about Mark, but she knew it would take time. Richie was as solid as a rock next to her side. Helping her when she felt depressed, turning her sulking into giggles in a flash. Jon didn’t like the cameradie between the two , but he didn’t let his feelings show. Jon had a lot of patience with her but his passion was close to the surface, Cheyenne knew it only needed a small gesture to get his passion to erupt like a volcano. He was the perfect gentlemen always making sure that she was happy and comfortable. Violet, sweet Violet she was the only woman companion to talk to and she enjoyed the old woman’s friendship. She ruled the house like a well oiled machine, but her tenderness and compassion was reflected in the maids and gardeners eyes. They knew what she expected of them and they did it proudly. This was such a wonderful place to be and Cheyenne savoured every moment of it.

She enjoyed the work at the studio, it kept her busy and she learned all the inner workings of making a cd, and it stunned her to see all the work and dedication it needed to put something like that together.

The guys travelled a lot and some days, she felt lonely and longed for Jon’s strong arms and voice to get her through the long nights or Richie’s sweet face smiling at her.

The guys flew back late the night before and she could see the tiredness reflecting in their eyes.

They enjoyed their meals, caught up with all the gossip and stuff going on, and retired for the night. She hoped that Jon would come to see her, but he never did and she accepted it.

Jon felt like crawling into bed with Cheyenne but he knew his restraint was lower than zero, he would make love to her and that wouldn’t not be a good idea, not yet anyway. There was still a week left before she had to go and see the doctor…and then he had a pants full of plans for her, that’s for damn sure. The bruises on her face were now completely gone and he could see that she was back to her old self, her looks anyway. Some days the hurt reflected in her eyes so clearly, he wished he could turn back the hands of time and change all the shit . But he couldn’t, he could just try and make her future so happy that she forget about the hell she went through.

God what he wouldn’t give to have her in his arms….


Cheyenne was still daydreaming when she turned around and came face to face with a pair of brown eyes….

“Now is this the long legged brunette I’ve been reading about in the newspaper?”

“Oh yeah, Dot. Just look down can’t you see?” Richie was in one of those moods again!

“Sorry, darling but I’m not into girls.”

“Now that’s quite a visual Dot….” Jon was grinning from ear to ear.

Cheyenne held her hand out ”Nice to finally meet you Mrs. Bon Jovi or is it Miss Hurley now? My name is Cheyenne.”

“Arrrgh to hell with the formality.. Dorothea will do just fine. Cheyenne what a beautiful name to go with the looks! God Jon you really outdid yourself this time!”

She gave Cheyenne the once over and smiled at her warmly…

“Don’t let him take over, cause honey you’ll never get the reigns back!”

“Now that’s a great thing to say to a new girlfriend, you want to make her run so you can have me back, honey?” He gave Dot one of his knee buckling smiles, leaning against the doorframe giving the woman an eyeful of that chest…

“Nope, just making sure the poor woman knows what she let herself into.” She winked at her.

“Thanx for the warning, Dorothea. Sorry Jon but I have you cornered now. No more mister I’m in control for you anymore.”

“Bro what she is trying to say, is she’ll be on top from now on, you can just lay there and enjoy the ride!” Richie hugged Cheyenne to his side. She slapped him playfully and laughed blushing like a damned schoolgirl.

“Richie you and your dirty mind!” Dot shook her head but she couldn’t control the laughter bubbling from her.

Jon looked into Cheyenne’s eyes and she immediately felt the sparks flying…

“Is that a promise baby? Cause you know me I’m an easy guy, I like to experiment!”

Why does he always change his voice to a low hoarse whisper if he says things like that? Is there a damn school for seduction or something cause hell he knows how to play seduction game!

“Listen I have better things to do, than to fuel your fantasies. Dorothea great to finally have met you! Hope to see you soon!”

“I hope you are ready for the Brady bunch! They are heading your way next weekend if that’s ok with you, Jon? Rob and I are going away for a bit, and I wondered if you could take the kids next weekend?”

“Of cause I’ll take the kids. I’ve been missing the little shits!” His bright smile telling them how happy he was about the prospect.

“This is gonna be fun. The carnival is running from next week, so I think the kids will have a ball!”

“Well, that’s that then. Sorry but I have to run. There is still a few things that need to be done before we go. The kids are looking forward to next weekend! I hope you survive it Cheyenne!”

Dot gave the guys a peck on the cheek and rushed to the car.

“What a nice woman!”

“Yeah, she could be when she’s in the right mood.” Richie pulled up his shoulders and rolled his eyes.

“Hey, that’s the mother of my kids! Don’t you trash her!” Jon gave Richie a playfull shove with his shoulder.

Mother of my kids…

‘Shit but I have to admit she could get quite feisty at times!” Richie nodded in agreement.

“Feisty? Fuck bro feisty is a light word to use on Dot if she gets pissed.”

“Well, I know you guys by know and as I see it, you probably begged for whatever came your way!”

“Oooh shit the womanhood. They just met each other and they are already in cahoots! I’m sorry my brother but I’m not helping you with this one!’

“Oh great brother you are! Asshole!”

Cheyenne laughed and walked away, calling over her shoulder. “Anyone up for some coffee?”
