FLA 38

Jon smiled as he went downstairs to the living room. When he got there Jake had his arm crossed and his foot was tapping impatiently on the floor staring at the door. He was definately a minature of his dad which made Jon smile.

Jake just looked at his dad and moved to the couch.

He walked over sitting down beside his son. "What's goin' on Jakey?"

"I have a problem."

"A school problem?"

"Yes, it a boy girl problem." Jake told his dad criptically.

Jon held back laugh when he saw that his son was truly serious. "I think I can help with that. Do you like a girl?"

"NO WAY they are gross."

"Well what kind of problem do you have then? Does a girl like you?"

"No girls are gross. But the kid that is picking on me at school is a girl."

"What exactly is she doing?"

"She is calling me names, saying I not a Jovi cos you spell your name the other way. Daddy haven't you been listening?" Jake asked a little upset.

"Yeah I know that part but is she actually doing something to you?"

"Yes I told you. I not talking to you anymore you not listen." Jake got off the couch and started to walk away.

"Jake buddy come here." Jon grabbed his hand just as he walked by to pull him back. "I'm just asking because girls that are the age you are will pick on you because they like you."

"Well I don't like her she's mean and you and mommy said I can't hit a girl. But I want her to stop it."

"That's right you can't hit a girl. You said before that other kids were calling you names - are all of them girls?"

"Yes."

"I really don't think they are trying to be mean they just want your attention. Whether you like it or not your a ladies man." Jon smiled.

"What? I not like girls why would I like ladies?" Jake asked so very exasperated.

"Girls turn into ladies Jake, your mom used to be a girl."

"No way, mom is cool."

"Yeah she is." Jon laughed. "Look you may not like girls now but you will eventually."

"So how do I make them stop picking on me? I hate school daddy."

"Just tell them you already have a girlfriend. If that doesn't work we'll think of something else."

"But if they ask me who?" Jake asked his dad, he's old he had to know something.

"Tell them that she just goes to another school that way you don't have to mention a name."

"Are you sure this will work?" Jake asked.

"I can't promise you it will work but it should."

"Otay daddy I trust you." Jake told him.

Once back at the house, Dot and Jon were in the kitchen and she was trying to start spaghetti sauce for dinner. She grabbed a jar of tomato chunks and looked at it thinking normally she opened it but this time she knew her arm wouldn't allow it. So with her left hand she put the jar in front of Jon, "Can you open that baby?" She smiled and then reached down to get the right kettle out of its hiding spot.

He took the jar opening it up, then passing it back to her. "Your shoulder still bothers you doesn't it?"

"Why because I asked you to open the jar?" She answered hoping to avoid the question.

"Because you didn't even bother to try to. Out of all the years we've been together you've never asked me to unless you were really busy."

"Its still sore a bit so I figured I have my sexy strong husband around I'll use him for his muscles." She smiled.

"That's fine with me but I want you to go to the doctor to get it checked. You may have fractured it or something."

"Jon I'll be fine but thanks for the concern."

"Do it for me?" he asked genuinely worried about his wife.

"Fine will you make an appointment for me with our Dr so I won't get harassed."

"So you won't get harassed?"

"Well what happened to you, are you sure that's what happened? They see the last name and always want some kind of story."

"There is no story right? You were teaching at the dojo and you got kicked because you turned the wrong way. But if it makes you feel better I'll get you an appointment with the doctor that did my knee surgery."

"Just our family doctor will be fine Jon its nothing serious I don't need a specialist."

"Alright honey whatever you say. When do you want to go"

"When the kids are in school." She answered handing him another jar to open as she added more ingredients to the kettle.

"Do you need anything else opened? Or do you need me to help you with anything else?"

"Those two cans too." She pointed to cans of tomato sauce.

He grabbed the two cans off the counter and walked over to the can opener. "How in the hell do you work this damn thing?" He fumbled around with the buttons then eventually figured out what to do. "What happened to the old fashioned kind?"

"Its in the drawer in case of power outages." She laughed.

"Do our kids even know how to use that one?" He laughed taking the cans over and emptying them into the pot for her.

"No they don't honey but I have seen Romeo looking at it, I think he thinks its an antique, maybe he'll bring it to show and tell.

"Kids today are to damn spoiled with all these electronic things. I was telling Jesse the other day about how mom used to actually fix popcorn on the stove." he laughed. "He asked if the microwave was broken."

"Ha ha, its not their fault honey, our generation just did too good of a job making their lives simple." Dot smiled adding a few more spices to the pot before putting the cover on it to simmer. Then she moved to get the hamburger out of the fridge to brown it.

"Yeah I guess so." He looked around the kitchen and saw a few dirty dishes on the counter so he grabbed those then washed them while his wife cooked.

"Go hide out in your office, I've got this." She smiled.

That was one of his pet peeves and he wondered if the kids did it just to test him. "You don't want me in here?" He asked drying the dishes then putting them in the cabinet.

"I love having you anywhere but I know you have calls to make, even when you're not working you can never be done. OH and I put the school board application on your desk yesterday, it has to be turned in by tomorrow if you want to do this."

"I don't know if I want to or not."

"Why not?" She asked knowing his problem was how she felt about things.

"I was thinking about it but do I really need one more thing to do?"

"Can we afford not to get you involved. Jon you've talked to a few of the families, don't you think you've got a better way?"

"Yeah I do but -"

" but what?" Dot challenged while still browning the meat for dinner tonight. "you're going to back down?"

"It's not that I'm backing down I just don't want to be away from you guys more than I have to."

"Jon, seriously if you're not going to then I will. Something needs to change with this school district and honestly you've got more experience running successful organizations than I do."

"Do you want to do it?"

"I'd rather you do it but ask me for my thoughts."

"I can do that but you have to promise me your not gonna get pissed for me doing this. You know that I value your opinion and don't want you upset."

"Jon you just did something for the first time in our 30 yr relationship how can I possibly be pissed now?"

He stood there looking at her unsure of what she was talking about. "What did I do?"

"really honestly put my feelings ahead of your desires."

He walked over hugging her gently. "Because you are more important than anything to me."

"I love you too Jonny. Now go." She turned and swatted him on the ass with her left hand before moving back to reading dinner.

"Yes mommy." he laughed as he walked out of the kitchen and went to his office.

"Bad boys get denied things." She called out to him.

"I'll show you bad boy tonight." he yelled back just before walking over to his desk.

Dot laughed, knowing he wasn't kidding. She stirred the meat and thought about Jon, since he came home this time they've been through a lot, pretty emotional stuff and through it all Jon's stayed strong and loving. She really did luck out in the love category.

*****

Jon was in his office for over an hour filling out the paperwork, each time he filled out a section he wondered if his wife really cared if he did this. At times when she talked about it she seemed a little agitated that he wanted to get involved with the school but at other times she was truly supportive of him. He finally got everything filled out then left the papers on the desk already in the envelope, all he had to do was mail it out. Knowing that he couldn't just sit there all day and contemplate he walked back into the kitchen to see if Dot was finished up with the cooking.

Dot looked up to him from the book she was reading. "Hey honey."

He gave her a smile then went straight for the coffee pot, he had only had 3 cups earlier and that wasn't nearly enough to get him through the day. "Do you want any coffee Dot?"

Dot looked over to Jon, knowing something was on his mind from the lifetime she's spent loving him. "Sure honey, and whats on your mind?"

"Nothing much." He filled up both cups full of coffee then preceded toward the table where he sat down the cups then grabbed a seat across from her. "I filled out the papers for the school thing."

"So Dr. Bongiovi are you gonna go tell them how to run the place?" She joked touching his hand.

"I don't know baby." he sighed tossing his head back then rubbing his hands over his face.

"Why don't you know?" She asked sipping her coffee knowing that he's probably worried about what she'll think.

"Can you look me directly in the eyes and tell me you're okay with it?"

Dot looked at him, directly in the eye, "yes. At least this obsession you'll be sleeping with me every night."

"I hope to be." he laughed.

"Where else would you be?"

"If I screw up probably outside with my buddy Copper."

"How do you think you're gonna screw up?"

"You know how I get wrapped up with work sometimes. I don't want it to come between us."

"Well I can tell you this, you're a grown up and you know my feelings on that are you seriously dumb enough to do it on purpose?"

"I never do it on purpose thats the problem."

"But Jon you're are a 20 yr old trying to make it in music anymore, you're 46 and you should have better priorities by now."

"My priorities now are you and the kids I just don't wanna get sidetracked."

"So don't let it happen, be a man and know when something's going to interfere with us and treat it correctly.

I was kidding myself thinking you'd stay home for 2yrs and just be mine, so this one I can back."

"You know as well as me if I was here for two straight years I would have you climbing the walls trying to escape." he smiled knowing that he always did tend to be on the clingy side when he got home.

"Yes you'd be attached at my hip and it would urk me. It'd be fun to figure out what life like a normal couple is but then again normal couples dont' spend 2 yrs not working."

"True but you work at the dojo a few days a week so this will give me something to do while your there and the kids are at school so I don't go completely nuts."

"Jon I think with your business sense you can have a plan worked out in a matter of days its just getting the approval."

"Thats the thing I have an issue with." he laughed. "I'm my own boss when I'm at work."

"Yes but you too can learn to compromise."

"It's not my strongest feature." he told her honestly.
"Am I supposed to not know this?" Dot laughed getting up to stir the spaghettie sauce using the spoon to let him taste it.

"You have almost got mom's sauce down." He took the spoon away for another taste.

She slapped his ass when he did that. "What's it missing?" She figured after 20 yrs of making this for him she might someday get it right.

"I dunno. Let me have another taste."

"Ok my Italian lover, just remember if you 'taste' it all now you'll only get water for dinner." She jokes kissing his back between his shoulder blades.

"Don't distract me while I'm working." he laughed taking another small bite of the the sauce. "Needs a little more salt I think."

"Ok." Dot added about another teaspoon of salt and stirred it up then reduced the heat. "So how are you going to entertain me while the kids are at school?" Of course just as she asked that the phone rang. She reached over and grabbed it. "Hello."

"Hey Dot."

"Hey sweetie, what's up?" Dot smiled because she hadn't heard from her sister in a few weeks.

"Not alot thank god the kids are back in school! I finally get a break."

"Yeah so much for you, I have the other one home now." Dot laughed walking into the living room with the phone.

"Whos sick?" She asked forgetting all about Jon then suddenly remembered. "Oh your other baby." she laughed. "I figured he'd be working on something by now."

"Not quite, I'm actually very impressed." Dot said criptically so if Jon was around he still wouldn't understand.

"Really? That's a shocker normally he's back in the studio by now. Did you put your foot down this time?"

"Well it was a long discussion but figurtively - yes."
JBJROCKS (11:47:32 PM): "That's good because you certainly needed to. You know I love Jon to death but he hasn't always had your best interest at heart, but I truly don't think he realizes what it does to you."

Just after she said that Jon walked up behind Dot wrapping his arm around her waist. "Who's on the phone?" he asked softly.

"My sister, wanna say hi?" Dot smiled and kissed him not telling him which one.

"Is it my favorite one?" Jon smiled.

Dot smiled into the phone, "Are you his favorite sister?"

"I'd better be or he's not getting anything for christmas." she laughed.

"If she's not you get nothing for Christmas." Dot relayed and handed the phone to Jon.

"You wouldn't get your favorite brother in law a gift? I'm hurt." Jon joked.

"Well I think you'll survive." Colleen smiled into the phone. "Are you treating my baby sister right? Don't make me have to come kick your ass."

"Yes I am or at least I'm tryin' to."

"Good cos I've gotten tired of kicking your ass for the past 20 yrs."

"Like you ever have." He looked back to Dot and smiled. "You're sister has been doing that for the past 20 yrs."

"Well who do you think taught her all that?" Colleen asks. "So what's your newest project JonnyBoy."

"Nothing - I'm just gonna sit on the couch and relax." he smirked into the phone. "You believe that right."

"Hey how much does that bridge cost again?" She joked, she liked having a brother finally, Dot did good in most regards.

"Ha ha. you're almost as funny as your little sister you know that."

"I'm just asking" Colleen laughed. "Ok I'm bored of you now I wanna talk to Dot."

"I love you to." Jon laughed handing the phone back to his wife. "She is no longer my favorite."

"now who is?" Dot laughed before talking to Colleen again.

"Linda." Jon yelled going back into the kitchen.

"Tell that little shit I heard that and I know where he lives." Colleen laughed.

"Sweetie he's not scared of me you honestly think he's gonna be scared of you?" She laughed.

"He'd better be."

Colleen settled back into her recliner enjoying talking with her sister, it was something they didnt' get to do very often. "You two seem really happy now though. Like you used to be."

"Yeah, oh we're getting married again. Renewing out vows on April 29, 2009."

"Really? You're doing that a second time?" she teased.

"Yes I still love him that much." Dot then looked to each side of her for kids, not remembering momentarily they are in school. Not realizing of course that Jon can hear her. "The sex is better than it was 20 yrs ago."

"According to you it was pretty good back then to."

"Oh it was, but it got better."

"Don't let him hear that." she laughed. "You think he has an ego on stage!"

Jon walked up behind Dot hearing what she had said just a few seconds earlier. "You want me right now don't you."

"Always Jonny." She smiled knowing from his grin he heard her.

"He heard you didn't he?" Colleen could tell by her sister's voice that she was still deeply in love with Jon and only wished her marriage would last as long. "You know that you're gonna have to make the doors extra wide so he can still walk through them right?" she laughed.

"Naah, he just knows his wife loves him thats all - right honey? You're ego's not stroked?"

"Yeah I know you love me." he smiled moving over closer to her taking her one free hand and placing it on his groin the whispered into her ear. "And you can always stroke something else."

Dot felt like letting him have his fun today, so she didn't move her hand she just moved over to the couch, knowing he'd follow because of where her hand is. "Hold on a sec Colleen I need to change phones." She then muted her sister. She sat down on the couch but left enough room for Jon to sit, his back against the armrest, "Sit with her butt here and your legs over my lap."

"Yes ma'am." Somehow her telling him what to do was an even bigger turn on.

Once he sat the way she wanted she unmuted her sister and put her hand back on his cock. "Alright I'm back, Jonny's gonna be in the room too but I'm sure he'll find some sports on tv to watch. After all football is back." Dot laughed rubbing his cock through his jeans.

"You don't have to tell me that. On sundays Jay dares me to even touch the remote, I hate football season." she sighed. "Especially when the Giants lose because I do not get sex." she laughed.

"Oh we've gotten past that, I get sex no matter what with the Giants, if they win its a celebration, if they lose its something Jon can look forward to- for being a fan even when they suck." She smiled, rubbing his cock more, she loved this, honestly right now she felt so intimately connected to him.

Jon had closed his eyes just taking in her soft touches, as crazy as it sounded he would love to have more time with her like this. Not that he didn't get enjoyment in the bedroom because he certainly did.

"Well you are one of the lucky ones. Maybe Jon should have a talk with Jay and give him guidance, god knows he needs it."

"Jonny can you talk to Jay and advise him more sex is better"

He opened up one eye looking at her like she was crazy. "You want me to talk to another guy about sex?"

"Yeah you know, man to man talks? Women talk about sex all the time." She told him while holding the phone between her shoulder and her ear and using both hands to unbutton his waist button and the button fly he had on.

"But guys dont talk about that kind of stuff." Jon told her but at the rate his wife was going he could easily be persuaded.

"Are you sure Jon?" Dot knew if she kept at the question he'd do whatever she wanted.

"Maybe." he smiled watching her hands.

"Hey Colleen I'll work on him for you ok sweetie?" Dot smiled. Loving that Jon found it so rewarding for her to play.

"Yes please do because it's getting very lonely in the bedroom lately." Just as she said that she heard a knock on her door. "Let me call you back a little later somebody is at the door."

"Ok by sweetie." Dot smiled hanging up. "So you like this?" she smiled to Jon.

"I could get used to it."

"Well I hope so cos I want to keep playing so find something to watch on tv." She smiled.

"You think I'm gonna be able to concentrate on tv?"

"Well its all good by me so if you watch tv or just pretend to, I'm having fun. I love knowing I'm the only woman in the world allowed to do this."

"That makes you happy knowing that?" He smiled leaning back on the arm rest, he was so content being there with her. It was times lik this he missed her when he was out on the road doing these kinds of things.

"Of course it does, every woman in the free world wants you and half of them in uncivilized countries and the only woman that can sit here in the living room, and touch you is me." Dot smiled and moved her hand down to fondle his balls a bit.

"To be honest you're the only one I want touching me." He closed his eyes taking in her touch. Being there with her in that position was something he actually thought about while on the road.

"Why are you trying to look so calm? Doesn't this turn you on? Your dick says so but you're body isn't saying that?" Dot asked confused, she moved her hand over to his hip a little embarrassed for being so bold.

"I'm just at ease baby." he smiled softly slowly opening up his eyes.
"Why did you stop?"

"Cos I thought you didn't like it? Jon I don't want to freak you out doing this stuff?"

"I didn't like my wife touching me?" He asked a little confused at her words. "You know better than anybody i crave this kind of attention."

"Even this sexual? I know you crave touching but I'm really in the mood to touch your cock for some reason its just calling to me today."

"Touch away - it's yours." he laughed.

"Seriously?" Dot looked at him unsure if she should believe he just told her he belongs to her.

After seeing the look on her face he sat up on the couch then placed his hand on her face making her look at him. "We belong to each other. I'm yours and you're mine." his voice was soft and full of sincerity as he spoke.

"Does it ever seem surreal to you? That we're going on 30 yrs together?"

"It does at times but in a good way. I wouldn't have made it this far without you though." he told her honestly.

"there's no one else I'd have liked to try with." She smiled and kissed him.

"Me either. Besides that nobody else would put up with all my shit." He smiled directly at her with a smile on she knew. "I love the fact that you never gave up on us."

"I couldn't I love you too much." She smiled again.
