Waking up the following morning all still snuggled together nicely Patsy and Nicky both lean up to kiss James, before kissing each other..... 'I know we said put it behind us and no questions..... I have one though' Nicky states 'did you or have you done the same as Gramma and had sex with any of the boys that I might have been friends with?'
'Nope..... only ever had sex with 3 people..... Shaun, my boyfriend whose mums party it was on the night that changed everything, but he had such a tiny dick and it lasted maybe 10 seconds so doesn't count really.... Gramps, when he was helping me that night and your Dad........ plus the couple of bits of 'Pussy Play' I mentioned.'
'OK.....' leaning closer Nicky whispered 'You would have fucked Larry the other night if you had chance though wouldn't you?...... I saw you on the table by the lodge.'
Looking flustered Patsy just hisses 'It has been a long time and I was feeling....... Oh I don't know what I was feeling!!'
'Hey what are you two muttering about?' James asks as he squeezes them both to him.
'Nothing much......... just deciding if you can keep us two ladies satisfied.' Nicky immediately pipes up, as she winks at her mother.
'Ummm.... We will see won't we....we need to be careful though.' James sighs.

Two weeks have passed since the crazy weekend of shenanigans and craziness that has forever changed the lives of all those concerned.
Mike finally came home but not to stay, he had decided he couldn't face James knowing that he had secretly been cheating on his Father-In-Law with of all people Gwen, James's wife and Mike's Mother-In-Law......... he never realised that things had moved on and Patsy had now cheated on him with James, her own Dad........ Mike claimed he just didn't love Patsy anymore and it was for the best that he moved out signing over any rights he had over the marital home.
Nicky had become more self-assured, still deeply disliking her job but finding ways to make it bearable including actually making friends with a couple of the private secretaries within the company.
James had come to terms with what had transpired, thought about the information that had been declared. Accepted it was in the past and nothing could be gained by dwelling on it....... The only regret he has is the fact he didn't think to get Lauren's phone number and realising he can't really ask anyone for it without lots of questions being asked.

Lauren wakes up actually on her own for once, Sian and Michelle having started to do early morning gymnastic workouts to keep them as near to competition standard as possible, that had to be done separately to their learning programs.
PING
Picking up her phone she can see 3 or 4 messages from Laurence, her Grandfather, taking the bull by the horns she opens them
'Lauren when you get a minute can you please ring me.'
'Lauren, I need your insight.'
'I have spoken to your Grand-Mother, she has admitted that she is funding your course and why........ if only you had both told me I would have understood.'
'Lauren, have you spoken to your Mother?......... I haven't seen her for a week and she keeps ignoring my calls and texts......... Call me ASAP!!!!!'
Realising it is probably best to just get it over with she decides to call him after she has had a wee but before she has a shower. Climbing out of bed, admiring her view in the mirror and pinching her nipple she throws on a robe to go and use the toilet, not bothering to put on any underwear........ Opening the door to her room she is surprised to see the caretaker and his apprentice out in the hallway...... being a tease she makes sure they see she is naked under her robe and actually pinches her boobs whilst having a wee to make her nipples poke out for her return to her room after.
'Hey there....... I just got your messages....... What is it you need my insight on?....... Sherry thought it better we didn't say anything because Mum would just get arsey........ nope not seen or heard from Mum since you dropped me up here.' Lauren blurts out in one long diatribe before Laurence can say anything.
'Oh.... Thanks for getting back to me....... I didn't realise just how much you did around here.'
'Sherry said you would suddenly realise I was the one keeping things going whilst you did the schmoozing etc....... she said Mum was doing her usual and just being a leech......... so what has gone wrong?' Lauren growls as she allows a smile to cross her face.
'Yeah, she told me in no uncertain terms last night when I popped in to see her....... Sherry, as you insist on calling her, wasn't surprised to hear Mum had gone AWOL.'
'She asked me to call her Sherry..... says she is too young to be called Grandmother, which is what you and Mum insist on......... You can't say much..... it is Laurence or Mr Kingman when we are working..... I think you are ashamed to let people know I am your Grand-Daughter.'
'You know that isn't true...... you also know it is mainly your Mother that insists on things........ Anyway, forget all that stuff..... I miss you around here...... I understand why and yes it will help the business once you get your qualifications, as long as you pass that is........ We are struggling here though so I need your input...... you know the set-up here so I need to know is there anyone you know who could possibly fill in and pick up some of your duties...... I don't expect anyone to do exactly what you did, I know you worked loads of extra hours and never got paid as it is all for the family and you will get the whole lot eventually....... I need a good receptionist and I need someone in the leisure centre...... any ideas??' Laurence pleads.
'Grandfather, are you actually asking for my help?' Lauren openly laughs.
'Cut the Grandfather bollocks.' Laurence spits 'if you had told me what was going on we could have covered this before you fucked off....... Now do you know anyone suitable yes or no?'
Slightly stung by his severity but also pleased that he sought her advice Lauren responds 'Ummmm..... I know that Sian, one of my roommates, she has a sister, I think you might have seen her when you were dropping me off....... she has a sports background and I think she is a receptionist at some office complex..... so maybe she could cover the leisure centre at least.'
'Ummm..... I think I know the one you mean...... she was a pretty girl, small build but looked sporty......... have you got her details?'
'No..... I can get them off of Sian when she comes back in later....... Or I can ask Sian if her sis might be interested and if she is maybe talk to her on the phone and tell her what is involved and ask her to contact you direct.'
'That would be a start....... Hopefully it will work out........ try to get her details and let me know tonight if possible....... Just so you know I am proud of you and just wish you had come to me first to explain what this course was all about...... we might have been able to have found it more local instead of you being way up there on your own.'
