Realistic or Modern Can't Fight What's Right

[decadent-rider]

He grumbled a bit but scooted over so she could sit with him “then come give me cuddles and help me feel better.” He mumbled, holding onto her with his good arm once she was settled next to him, letting her turn the tv on and he went quiet, not able to understand it but he needed to rest anyway.

Carmen frowned as she got up close. “What the fuck are you doing here?!” She snapped at her estranged husband. “You’re gonna get yourself fired or charged with harassment!” She snapped at him, “Why are you mad at Jordan?! I am the one who left you and cheated on you! Not him.” She pointed out, glaring until he turned and started to get up in her face as well but before she could protest she felt Jordan pushing her back slightly and moving himself between them

Max turned on the TV as she snuggled up to him smiling softly. She watched intently loving this show not noticing Jon had fallen asleep. She frowned when she heard talking outside of his door and quickly muted the TV. She heard a familiar voice and gulped remembering it from somewhere.

Jordan frowned as Pedro starting going off on her. Starting to call her every name in the book and get closer. He shook his head before moving to step between them as Pedro grew closer to Carmen "Pedro you need to leave now before I call the cops!"

 

[decadent-rider]

Jon frowned a little in his sleep, waking up when she moved off the bed and grumbled. “Come back.” He whined but frowned when he saw the door open and a very large blond guy walk through the doors looking pissed off.

Alex had been arguing with the nurses until they let him into the room and he stormed inside seeing that max was safe and let out a sigh of relief. “Oh thank god. I thought Peter had shot you!” He told her quickly, going over and hugging her.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max got up quickly trying to get the gun in her purse. She frowned as the door swung open and a giant blonde man came in going wide eyed. She hugged him tight and let out a sigh of relief "Alex what are you doing here? Shit why is Peter targeting us?"

 

[decadent-rider]

Carmen frowned as Pedro continued his angry tirade "Just stop! Enough! Both of you! Pedro I don't what else I can do to get it through your head that I've made up my mind! I love Jordan. In a way that I have never loved anyone else.... Not even you.... I'm sorry I fucked up your life and I know it's not good enough but there's nothing you can do that would make me come back to you." She told him seriously.

Alex frowned and stepped back, watching her, "I.... You don't know do you?" He asked her seriously and glanced over at the guy in the bed, "You must be Jon Bernthal.... I'm sorry that the two of you have been caught up in the mess over here." He muttered, frowning at how pale he was looking

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned shakong her head a bit as she moved to sit next to Jon again "Jon this is Alex Ludwig, he and Jasper were very close." She murmured before turning her attention back to the blonde "Jasper kept me in the dark about his business dealings, so yes I really have no idea whats going on."

Pedro watched her shaking his head a bit "Carmen please.....I love you more than anything. You know I can treat you better than him, and give you a better life." He begged

 

[decadent-rider]

Alex frowned shaking his head, "He did that to keep you safe but it was only gonna work if he stayed alive." He sighed heavily, "Jasper was paying for Peter's mistakes. All the mob stuff he had to do was because of Peter. He was furious. So he gathered all the evidence he could while they still worked together and when he had enough, that's when they split the company in half... Peter is being hunted down by the FSIS and they need the evidence that Jasper gathered, they don't know where he has it but that's why PEter got to him... To stop him from handing it over. Now he thinks you have it." He muttered, frowning as he watched Jon for a moment, "He's not looking so good."

Carmen shook her head "No! I said leave PEdro! I'm done!" She snapped at him, stepping away and taking Jordan towards the office on site, slaamming the door behind her. "How exactly does he think he's going to make me change my mind?!" She spat at no one in particular, putting the food bag on the tasblr "I brought you subway." She sighed heavily, burying her face into his shoulder when he pulled her into his arms.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max listened to him and sighed softly "Shit." She muttered before turning to look at Jon "Alex...Alex go get a nurse.'" She said quickly before pressing the call button repeatedly.

Jordan pulled her close to him as they got into the office "Shh...hey its going to be alright." He murmured as he rubbed her shoulder gently doing his best to try and comfort her

 

[decadent-rider]

Jon had been listening but feeling worse by the minute and he had no energy to speak or move, just managing to look around him a little.

carmen frowned and just started sobbing against his shoulder holding onto him tightly.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned more as she watched him taking a deep breath. He was turning an awful pale color and looked like death at the moment. She moved out of the way as the nurses came in and immediately went to checking over his wounds.

Jordan frowned more amd sighed heavily as he kept her close to him. He let her cry for as long as she needed before pulling away "You talk to your Dad?"

 

[decadent-rider]

She shook her head and sat down, wiping her eyes and thanked him when he passed her a tissue, looking up at him frowning. “Not yet. I was gonna go after this. His nurse says he’s having a bad day today though and he can’t remember anything.”

Alex stepped out with her once they asked them too and he gave her shoulder a squeeze.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Jordan frowned some more nodding a little "You want me to go up there with you?" He asked softly as he sat down at his desk

Max frowned some and shook her head a bit more "I can't loose him too...Alex I honestly have no clue if I have the information on Peter."

 

[decadent-rider]

He frowned about to ask her a question when they heard alarms going off and the door opened long enough for them to see someone giving Jon cpr to try and start his heart again after he had stopped breathing on them.

Carmen just nodded and snuggled a little. “I’m sorry, this isn’t quite going to plan is it?” She whispered

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max went wide eyed trying to rush into the room as Alex held her back "No! Goddamn it no!" She yelled out as the reality that she may loose him was becoming clearer

Ivar chuckled quietly as she cuddled into him once he got in bed "Its alright I promise." He said quietly smiling a bit as Garmr curled up at their feet.

 

[decadent-rider]

She sighed heavily and smiled over at Jordan a little when he just shrugged it off and she watched him kick his feet up onto the desk. “I’m gonna go ride okay? I’ll call you if anything happens.” She murmured pecking his cheek.

Alex eventually managed to get her sat down until someone came out to speak to them wnd explain that some shrapnel had dislodged and travelled through Jon’s body to where it had caused his airways to become blocked but he was stable now. “He’s gonna be alright. My men will watch your room. I’m gonna get to work on finding where he hid the information.”

 

[Forever6A7X]

Jordan gave a small nod as he unwrapped his sandwich thanking her again before she left and he got on with his break

Max took a deep breath and nodded a bit as she sat down next to Jon "He needs to leave. He isn't safe here without protection."

 

[decadent-rider]

Alex frowned. “I can extend a couple of my guys to watch out for him til you two can go back okay?” He promised. “Jasper never wanted this for you yknow. Everything he did was to keep you safe even if it didn’t work out that way.” He tried to reassure her.

she headed out to jump on her horse, getting everything ready to go and just put her music on, letting the outside world drown away from her.

 

[Forever6A7X]

-3 days-
Max sighed heavily as she stepped out of the shower at the hotel room trying to get her mind straight. Jon had sent her off with two od Alex's men to get some better rest and a shower since she had been at the hospital every waking minute. She sighed as she came out seeing all the paperwork scattered around the room. She had been searching through all of Jasper's paperwork trying to find anything on Peter.

Jordan sat at Carmen's dad's place sighing heavily as he heard him yelling inside. The past few days had been terrible for him. He seemed to only remember Carmen and that was partially. He was scared to death of his nurse and he knew this was taking a huge toll on Carmen at the moment.

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned shaking her head when he demanded get again that she call the cops on his nurse. “No dad she’s here to look after you I promise.” She told him gently as she could. “Please just let her help you. I have to go dad I have an appointment for something really important I’m sorry.” She told him as gently as she could trying to get him to at least calm down but it took another twenty minutes and finally she walked out of the house and burst into tears.

Jon was laid up still but was now working and currently on the phone to some of his guys back home trying to sort out what information they had on their side of things.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Jordan stood up when he heard her come out and sighed heavily. It hurt him to see her in this much emotional pain and stress. He pulled her close as she tried doing his absolute best to try and comfort her "I got you babe, I got you."

Max sighed heavily as she plugged in yet another flashdrive to her computer frowning when only photos came up. She scrolled through a few, recognizing them as times they had shared. She frowned though when she got to an encrypted file and started to try and figure out how to open it.

 

[decadent-rider]

Jon frowned a little as his phone started ringing and he managed to sit up a little more again. “Hey babe, you find anything?” He asked her quietly. He was still struggling a little but he just wanted to get home to the states now.

 

[decadent-rider]

She shook her head and held onto him tightly. “It’s not fair on him at all. He’s gonna have to go into a home and he’s never gonna know any grandkids. I still haven’t found my brother.” She sobbed into his shoulder.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned softly as she heard his voice "Jon, I think I found it. There is an encrypted file on this flashdrive." She said quickly

Jordan sighed heavily but nodded some "We'll find the best care facility for him babe. This is going to hurt but its for the best. He needs to proper treatment." He told her softly

 

[decadent-rider]

He nodded and frowned some, "Alright, don't open it." He told her, "Bring it straight here alright, we'll get it sorted I promise." He told her quietly, "I love you, we're gonna be home before you know it." He promised her quietly.

Carmen frowned and shook her head "It's not fair on anyone... I'm gonna go ahead and see about getting the power of attorney stuff finalised." She told him quietly, "He told me a while back that he's leaving the ranch to you anyway so our income is secure at least...." She sighed quietly, "I should have come home sooner." She mumbled, wiping her tears and looking up at him when she felt his hand on her cheek

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max listened to him carefully and nodded some closing down her laptop before she got dressed. She opened the door staring at Alex's two men frowning a bit "I need to go to the hospital to see Jon." She said softly

Jordan cupped her cheek gently as she started rambling and gave her a small smile "We'll get it all settled okay? And atleast you came back to see him before he was gone. He may not be all there but I see him light up everytime you get in his line of sight."
