“I get it!” shot back Bette, slamming a box of food down on the counter, it splashed slightly, and Jo closed her eyes to the sight of the food, her stomach churning at the spectacle. “Call Julie…”
Jo griped, feeling the tension brewing between the two of them, dialing the phone and getting Julie almost instantly, “Reno, what are you up too?” Now walking outside, not losing sight of Bette for an instant, Jo tried to force herself to relax. Watching as Bette shook the bottle of medication that Darci had prescribed her. They were to help keep Jo’s energy level up, but Jo’d been ditching them in the toilet for the last few days, they just seemed to be making her moody and make food taste funny. Jo didn’t want to be moody, in reality, she really wanted to go to sleep and never wake up again, die peacefully.
“About 5’6’’,” retorted Julie in her usual quick banter. “Nothing much, boss. I was catching up on paperwork, you didn’t tell me about all the fucking paper work.”
Laughing Jo said, “Come over to Bette’s, I have an assignment for you, if you can get out from under the weight of the paperwork I left you with, that is.”
“Ah yeah? Like as in field work, or paperwork?” asked Julie. Jo could hear Julie shuffling papers and banging something, Jo could only imagine what it was. Closing her eyes, seeing Julie, dressed in an orange tee shirt and old jeans, Jo snapped the intrusion into Julie’s mind off with great difficulty.
“Field work, tracking down Carmen,” said Jo as she dipped a toe in the pool, watching the water ripple away from her toe, trying to center herself. Than suddenly she was seeing the ripples in colors of heat and cold, tapping into Spencer’s power against her will, she shook her head and broke the connection with a hard thought. Her gut was tied in a tight knot, making Jo waver on her feet slightly.
“You’re friends disappear often, you know that? I’ll head over,” said Julie, glad to be rid of the paperwork, taking over Jo’s position at the agency was a daunting task, and the woman had huge shoes to fill. Jo would work herself to the bone back in the day, but Julie was slowly rebuilding her life, painstakingly finding her niche in the world. She didn’t want to live at the office; she wanted to enjoy her life and her work, a precarious balance between the two.

30 pages and you end it there!!?? This was great as always, although I do admit that with so many characters sometimes I have to stop and try to remember who they all are. lol This must have taken days and days to write, so thank you. :) So, is “droll” a good thing?
That was a great update. It was fun to see the crowd together. Hope Jo is ok. Lots of questions about Jo still to be answered. Will she survive. How does her powers transfer from one person to another. Will Bette save her, hopefully without harming herself. So many questions. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
Ah, damn. This doesn’t look good at all. Everything seems like it’s going to a very hot place in a very small basket. And you’ve left it on such a cliffhanger too. No, Janet, I don’t want a big shake up (actually, I’m a liar. I crave them, the story’s not the same without them, but I just don’t want anyone– read: Jo –dying.) Nat’s a bright spot though… she intrigues me. Loved the chapter, post soon. Cheers, Janet
So glad I waited until this morning to read, cause you threw the whole clan at us , & I def. needed to concentrate on all the characters cause my mind was mush last night. Hope you write in the recording session w/ the girls & Daisy, seems like trouble there. Will Nat get w/ anyone? I can’t blame Bette for hovering, who wouldn’t if someone they loved were dying – even if they are as proud & independent as Jo. Luv the mingling of everyone w/ no fights breaking out only snarky comments. Thanx for the long post.
