The plane ride home.

The plane ride home to the states was uneventful.
I was exhausted. My head hurt and my mind was racing.
I was worried about Ben.
I knew it was bad, he would return to me if it wasn't.
I saw Charles drinking whiskey and knew he would be asleep in no time.
" Jo, can we go lay down and rest for a while?" He asked me as he picked up my hand and kissed it.
" I need to eat a bite of food, then I will join you." I smiled up at him as he stood up.
His body towered over me as he stared at me for a few moments, wondering if I was angry at him for accusing me of kidnapping him.
I assured him with a soft touch to his arm. He nodded at me, then shot a look at Lavender Blue before leaving.
He wobbled to the back of the private jet.
As soon as he left, Lavender spoke to me in a hushed tone.
"I need to find Ian. It's not like him to neglect to message me."
Lavender sounded worried.
I sat next to her and told her my mind.
" I think something very bad happened. I need to go to Mexico and find out. I need an escort though, would you consider letting me go with Blue?"
I saw then that Lavender was very emotional. She hid it well though.
" All my life I've been considered a freak. You don't know how refreshing it is for me to share my secret with you. I was born this way, my parents raised me as a boy.
I felt very feminine as a teen, but my parents refused to accept me any other way than as Johnathon Anderson.
So, when I left home at 17, I dressed how I wanted to, how my body wanted to dress and act. I always had these Lavender eyes, but in certain light...."
"Blue, and they look amazing." I finished for her.
She actually blushed.
" Joey, I could kiss you for being so kind to me. I've always been a bit impulsive and rough around the edges."
I could see I was speaking to Blue now.
I took his hand and squeezed it.
" Blue, will you escort me to Mexico. I will keep Lavender's secret. I just need to find my husband so...I can get a divorce and marry Charles Hudson.
I know that I thought I loved Manuel, but I can't get past the things that happened to me in Mexico. My back wounds are a constant reminder to me.
I think I am ready to end things with Manuel now. I have to. He bought me as a s*x slave. I can never really trust him again."
" Joey, speaking of trust, I need to tell you that I worked for Chavez Sanches for over 3 years."
I shrugged, not knowing who that was.
" He was the man that...he was very tall." Blue finished, then could tell I understood him very well.
I sucked in my breath, hearing his real name. My heart sped up thinking of that animal.
" You, you work for him?" I shuddered.
" I told you I left home at a young age, it was very hard for me...I lived on the streets. I was a s*x worker for many years.
Sanchez offered me a job as a curator of sorts, I supplied him with necessities, including drugs Jo."
" The drugs they filled me with Blue?" I pulled away, feeling betrayal.
" No, I used to work for Sanchez. Not anymore. I got out, I met the one honest man that changed my life forever, Ian.
I watched him for months as he hung around the auctions, becoming chummy with Sanchez and his men.
I thought he was a cop, I just knew it. I threatened him.
Begging him to take me out of that evil place, or I would blow his cover.
He saw something in me. He got me out of that horrid place.
I was in full on Blue mode, but around Ian, Lavender bubbled up, she wanted him very badly."
I could see the way her face softened, Lavender was truly in love with Ian. She looked away, shaking her head as if to clear it.
"Jo, I didn't know Ian was actually working for the CIA. I became his field operative, well his lover first. It seems I am able to fit into any situation. It's my unwanted superpower.
I was aware of Manuel Ortega back then, Ian had his eye on him for sometime, because of his ties to the cartel"
Blue absently stroked his finger over my hand. It felt sensual. I looked down at it, it relaxed me a bit.
" He's actually an inigma. I mean... don't get me wrong, he's ruthless, but very respected.
The women he bought before you, there were 4 actually. Once died trying to escape. She swam into the ocean and drowned.
Jo, you were smart not to try something like that, there are sharks in the waters."
My eyes darted away.
" Blue, that's why Manuel had Arturo whip me. He said he had to punish me, he himself got very drunk while it was happening.
I think I understand that more now. He said he had to show his household that he was in charge, a firm ruler.
Damn, I think he was reliving that girls death, I never thought of that before."
Blue leaned in and held my chin, he was a very handsome man as he had soft womanly features, yet a strong chin and high cheekbones. He brushed a hair from my eye.
" If I was Manuel, I would never let you go. Jo, you are a very beautiful woman. Inside, and out."
His soft lips just grazed my own. I didn't know how I felt about him, but he seemed to want me. I turned to face him more fully, full of curiosity.
" No, Kiss me as Lavender now." I wanted to understand about this person.
He changed right before my eyes, she was there, the face softened even more, her eyes lit up with passion and heat.
She kissed me then, her sweet tongue collided with my own.
I felt something, my thighs squeezed together as...I kissed her back.
I heard Charles calling for me.
She pulled away and wiped her mouth. " What the f**k, Jo? You little vixen."
I touched her soft bottom lip.
" YOU, are amazing Lavender Blue. Just be who you are, I see you. There's all these rough edges, but deep inside, you are so perfect."
As I stood up to leave, Lavender Blue did too.
They hugged me and kissed my head. " I'm going to Mexico with you."
I looked up at them and nodded.
My eyes were full of unshed tears.
I understood how this lovely person was a they. Two sides to coin, living in unison. They had a hard life, I didn't envy them.
I turned and went to see Charles.
*********
" There you are, come lay with me Jo." He reached out his warm, strong hand.
I lay down and snuggled in next to his lean body.
" I'm feeling bad that I didn't remember those beautiful weeks we shared. I must have really hit my head hard."
" Charles, we can figure it all out at home. Let's get some sleep."
I was so emotionally drained, I was thinking about all those kids at my mom and dad's house.
" Kiss me goodnight." He stroked my hair as he looked into my eyes.
I grabbed his face with both hands and leaned in giving him a warm kiss.
His hand caressed my breast. His breath was quite boozy, but it made me smile. He was tipsy and very loving.
" Mmm...Jo, can you roll over?"
I looked at him, then laughed.
" Mr. Hudson you beast."
" No, I want to touch your scars. I want you to know that I love every inch of you, even your trauma and all of your pain.
I want you to feel my love deep inside where no one else can touch you, only me. Right into your heart."
I just stared at him,"this isn't real, is it?" I said unbelieving.
He put his hands around my waist. " I'm real, yes you are here on a plane with me. You really are here."
" Charles, before...when I was shot full of heroin, I retreated into my head. I thought of us. I even convinced myself we made love one night in the pool house at my parents home."
He kissed my nose.
" I stayed there when you disappeared. I could smell you in that bed. I spent so many nights just hoping you would return and that you missing was all just a dream."
" Oh, how ironic. Charles, would you stay with me there when we return, so I can make my dreams come true?"
" Yes, I would love to. But, I need to get my divorce behind me. I need to get that settled as soon as possible."He said looking down.
" You are worried about Lana and I am worried about Ben." I admitted.
" Jo, why? Why did we end up with the wrong person when we loved eachother like this?"
I placed my palm between his legs and began to touch him. He moaned softly at my touch.
" Yeah let's do that instead of talking, I like that very much."
Soon we were breathing hard into eachother's mouths as we made love in the sky on the private jet. I must admit Lavender's kisses woke up my desires.
I wondered about making love with Lavender Blue, it made me warm and very wet.
Charles lay over me, covering my body with his as he entered my womanhood and gave me such pleasure with his body.
He moved slowly, deliberately moving in then pulling away, almost totally disconnecting our union.
This made me crazy, I grabbed at his butt and pulled him in.
He landed himself very deep, I cried out in ecstasy.
" I know you love me, your body just told me so." He whispered in my ear as he began to move again.
