The Sitter (closed for Homerun2611)

Doug had heard his girls laughing and had come to the door to investigate a bit, and then stayed and watched a bit of the Princess' tea party. It warmed his heart to see his girls so happy, how natural, warm and loving Autumn was with them, and how happy they all were. The girls tried so hard with their mother, but for whatever reason, and Doug would never understand, she was cold and distanced.

"A Prince?" Doug laughed. "Perhaps if there were some damsels in distress, but the only damsels I hear here, seem to be having a very good time!" He took a step and it was Megan who called out, "We are Daddy, but we would still like a Prince to join us...I think Princess Autumn agrees!" Autumn just smiled, and if Doug didn't no better, he might have thought his daughter was trying to fix her father up with the Nanny she had come to love. It is funny what goes through kids minds, and Doug wondered, if in her own little way, Megan was trying to do exactly that.

Doug came in and sat down on own of the little mini chairs, his knees almost hitting his chin! He grabbed an empty cup and brought it to his lips, "Mmmm, what excellent tea Princess Autumn, you are a most excellent chef!" His two little girls squealed in delight with his playing along, and they sat there and played make believe for several minutes. Finally Doug looked at his girls. "Okay princesses...go up and put on your royal bathing suits, your prince will go swimming with you in the palace pool for a bit, before he resumes his royal duties!"

Off the girls scampered and Doug looked at Autumn, "Thank you for making their lives happy again...you know this is how I thought their lives would be, and should be." He sat there thinking, something had been bothering him. "Why do you continue to work the other job...I don't like to think of you out alone at night...honestly I am probably even a bit jealous. If it is money Autumn, let's talk, what could I do to make you not want to keep your other job?"
 
Autumn smiled seeing the girls run off to get their suits excitedly and looked at Doug lostening as he thanked her for making the girls lives happier and telling her thats how he imagined it and howmit should be " I enjoy spoiling them, i think its important that the girls realize that theynare queens and should be treated s such" she said and chuckled and beagn puting the tea party toys away knowing the girls would be done.

They were quiet for a second as she moved around and she paused hearing him ask why she worked the other job and ifit was money she needed and that he would pay her more if he could make her quit her other job , this was more than a job for her now and honeslty she didnt feel comfortable taking his money when she woukd domall of this freely for him and the girls, she loved them just as much as they loved her.

She reached over grabbing his hand and squeezed it " Doug , you and the girls mean everything to me, the money is just for my savings, my future business ideas and honestly it is just something i do out of habit, its all i had before i came" she said softly and kissed his hand " I couldnt possibly take more money from you Doug .." she leaned in giving him a quick soft kiss " There is nothing for you to be jealous about" she said knowing Doug was possessive of her.

She wanted to tell him about what Jerry had threatened her with back in the store but she was certain Doug would confdont the vulgar man about it and the kelly would know what she did and then she'd never seen he or the girls again.

She looked at him seriously " Doug... there is no reason for you to be jealous, i dont feel anything for anyone but you" she said softly

Doug felt her take his hand and listened to every word. " Doug , you and the girls mean everything to me, the money is just for my savings, my future business ideas and honestly it is just something i do out of habit, its all i had before i came" she said softly and kissed his hand " I couldnt possibly take more money from you Doug .." she leaned in giving him a quick soft kiss " There is nothing for you to be jealous about"

There were a million things he was thinking but he wasn't sure how to explain it. She looked at him seriously " Doug... there is no reason for you to be jealous, i dont feel anything for anyone but you" Doug took both of her hands in his. He might scare her, but it was time to be honest.

"I hope that when you are thinking of your future, the girls and I are in it. I don't know exactly how we move ahead, but all I know is I don't want any future without you. I have fallen in love with you, and so have the girls. You don't know how much it bothers me to think of guys flirting with you and hitting on you, and you having to be nice to them. What you did before you don't need to do anymore...and maybe it is time to break some habits and develop new ones....Kelly is going to be gone most nights going forward, I am pretty sure. Would your really rather work than be here with me?"

Just then he heard the front door slam and Kelly walk in...Doug let go of her hands, "Think about it...does that job really mean that much to you?" Doug got up to talk to his wife, leaving the woman he was actually in love with sitting there thinking....
 
Autumn sat in her thoughts for a moment, she did have quite alot of money saved, she literally had bags full of it in her locked closet in her room in the poolhouse, she had accumulated at leastm2 million over the years shes been doing it but never found a place she was comfortable enough to settle in and her car was her home most of the time because she had travelled around some.

Of course she loved him, and he had loved her as well he had just admitted it, she wsnt sure how they would move ahead either with him being married but he and the girls were her family of course she wanted them in her life up until now the club had been reliable part of hers too, she cared for some of the women there as well, of course she'd want to be with him every night, it was just a complicated situation.

She was brought out of her thoughts when she heard an " Autumn Autumn!" She forgot everything and sprinted into the other room where the girls had been playing dollls instead of putting thier suits on " Ok my little princesses" she said and chuckled as they showed her their dolls " Theyre just as beautiful as you" she said and kissed the tops of their heads " How about we go get changed?" She said escorting them back to their walk in closet and getting the two girls dressed.

She styled their hair and carried Tammy down while holding Megans hand and paused for a second seeing Doug and Kelly were discussing something that looked serious. She made a gesture apologizing and then took the two outside "Come on girls" she said to the two she would take them to the poolhouse to have a light snack while she changed and then shed take them for a swim.

Kelly had come in to tell Doug that she needed to cram for her upcoming midterms and her study groups would be working until late into the night. Did Doug mind if she just stayed out by the University with a friend.

The truth was he didn't and was thrilled to have the freedom to have his house and time with Autumn and the girls without his wife. However, this was getting old, who were they kidding? Doug took a deep breath. "Kel, don't you think it is time to talk...I mean who are we kidding here, really?" He saw the look in her eyes, almost terror, but he knew it wasn't over losing him, or even more the girls, it was just in admitting failure. But Kelly, being Kelly, took the offensive!

"Isn't that just like you, you know I have these big tests coming up, and you bring up this shit!" She stamped her foot, "I don't know why you'd be mad, you hired your own concubine, don't tell me she isn't putting out for the mighty Doug!" Doug was furious, for he was sure they had both strayed, and he didn't blame either of them, their marriage was over, his guilt was all about the girls.

"Shhh, for God's sake Kelly, don't do this, not here...go study, I hope you ace your tests...but sometime we have to face the fact...we don't have a marriage anymore...I don't even think we like each other! We have to figure out what is best for the girls..."
 
Autumn wasnt sure what Doug and Kelly's conversation was about but whatever it was seemed serious and she was glad to have taken the girls to the poolhouse because she didnt want them to hear anything that was going on or be hurt she really did love the two kids.

She made them a snack in the little kitchenette and she sat them down to watch some educational cartoon thanking the stars thatbshe had been so careful with her other jobbthat she locked all of those things up and away in a bag in her trunk because she hadnt wanted Doug or Kelly to see it.

She sighed thinking now she had gotten caught and now their neighbor knew and was trying to blackmail her into sex and a lap dance both of which she had not done , she waa probably one of the few girls that hadnt offered personal extra services it was either bottle service , working the bar or on stage performances for her but she couldnt help but feel nervous coming clean to Doug , would he end things with them? Would he think she did what most of the other girls did? She was different and that got her both loved and hated on.

She saw the Greek yogurt ,granola and apples must have made the girls full because both had fallen to sleep after a few minutes and she leaned down kissing the top of their heads and put the throw blanket over them so they could rest.

She sighed sitting at the kitchen island and she knew tonight would be her final dance and the night she would come clean to Doug.

She heard Kelly pull out from the house in it seemed a hurry so she knew it must not have been the most pleasant of conversations. She gave him a few minutes before heading into the house and she saw him sitting on the arm chair.

"Hey, Everything ok?" She said concerned
 
Doug was just sitting there. They actually had been in love at one point, hadn't they? It was hard to remember. It had ended with the girls, which was so sad, as Doug considered them miracles. Kelly wouldn't ever say it, but the girls had felt like shackles to her, perhaps marriage had as well. He felt relief, but how would he break it to the girls?

He was just sitting there, he had seriously pondered a drink, but had resisted. He was just trying to regroup when Autumn came in. "Hey, Everything ok?" She said concerned He looked up at her, and smiled, it was good to see her face. "Yeah...my marriage is over...." He looked up at her, wondering what her reaction would be?

When your marriage ends, no matter what the reason, it is not the most secure moment in your life. He wondered for a minute if Autumn would be happy, sad or scared. Did she love him, or was part of the appeal that he was married and therefore safe from strings and attachments. "I mean there is more to come obviously, and I won't give up the girls...but it felt good to say it...to tell her...to tell you!"
 
Autumn gave a soft smile seeing Doug had looked relieved and not sad and then he looked up and said his marriage was over and she was stunned, she had felt sad for the girls of course but she was happy for him and that he was no longer under Kellys control anymore.

She stroked his head softly hearing him explain what would happen and how he felt and she leaned in giving him a soft kiss as he mentioned telling her.

She looked into his eyes and said " Im sorry that its over but im glad that you are free and happy and she wont hold the girls over your head. I love you Doug, and il be there through it all ok?" She said
 
Doug felt vulnerable, there was no doubt about it. He had fallen in love with Autumn, but he was no fool. It was one thing for her to have feelings for him, when he was a fun dirty little secret and the fear of getting caught could not help but lend fuel to the fire.

They had chemisty, had from the beginning, but now the whole situation had changed. Her touch, her kiss, her words helped, " Im sorry that its over but im glad that you are free and happy and she wont hold the girls over your head. I love you Doug, and il be there through it all ok?"

He looked back into her eyes, and thought through her statement. He opened his legs and pulled her onto his thigh to sit on his lap. There was something he needed to say, and perhaps he should have waited, but he was too raw and total honestly seemed necessary!

"Autumn, are you really sorry its over? I'm not...it is sad I'm not, but I'm not." He stopped and licked his lips. "The way I have seen you with the girls, and the way you have made me feel made me realize that both they and I deserve more."

It was amazing the sense of fear and dread he was feeling as he was about to toss his heart on th floor for her to kick. "But this isn't a game for me, or them. You are young, and this may be way more than you ever expected."

He took a deep breath. "I am in love with you, I think they are too, in fact I'm sure they are. That is a lot to take on. But I am about to end a marriage, where at one time she loved me very much, and now not at all. I can't go on with you, if you are not sure you want to. And I would not blame you if you weren't? But, I can't question if you are completely in love with me, want me like you would never want another...that is what I want. And the same thing...that you know you could love my girls, like they were your own...and when, if we had kids...you could love all of them equally. They have felt the pain when a mother doesn't fully love them...and I can't, won't ever let them feel that again!"
 
Autumn, are you really sorry its over? I'm not...it is sad I'm not, but I'm not.

She shook her head no, she felt horrible the family was being split but she wasnt sorry. She positioned herself to straddle his lap and listened to him speak her eyed never leaving his as he poured his heart out to her and her eyes welled up.

She had never felt love this intense or deep and she didnt want Doug to ever question that, she was nothing like Kelly, she didnt see any of them as burdens , they were a blessing for her, a familyshe had always wanted for herself never having the privilege of being in one.

" Doug, i love everything about you , i love the girls, you are my family and i would never abandon you or the girls, I would never want any of you to feel alone" she said softly and leaned in and kissed him deeply.

She smiled at the thought of more children with him, she knew she wasnt the girls mother but she did love them as if they we're her own and growing with them . "Im ready for this Doug, All i want is you and us to be a family, You and the girls had my heart from the moment i saw you all " she chuckled

She sighed knowing it would be alot to talk to Doug about but she wanted him to be completely calm and trust her about her other job " Im quitting tonight... I know youre curious about what i do, and the job isnt the safest, but i need to you trust me that ive always protected myself working there and have done the basics of the job and worn the uniforms" she said and stopped wondering if Doug already had a clue of what she did and how he woukd react to her telling him, if she had felt ashamed of her dancing in the past but it had been the best job she could get before doing this one and it had been how she survived alone for years she just didnt want the man she loved thinking any different of her.
 
Doug, could not have asked for more from Autumn in how she responded to his being ready to end his marriage. She spoke sweetly, touching him and kissing him between the things she said.

" Doug, i love everything about you , i love the girls, you are my family and i would never abandon you or the girls, I would never want any of you to feel alone..."

"...Im ready for this Doug, All i want is you and us to be a family, You and the girls had my heart from the moment i saw you all ..."

" Im quitting tonight... I know youre curious about what i do, and the job isnt the safest, but i need to you trust me that ive always protected myself working there and have done the basics of the job and worn the uniforms"


He held her, and thanked her. "I was actually afraid you might be scared, I wouldn't have blamed you, if you had run, but I am glad you didn't." He knew it would not be easy, and Kelly would attack Autumn and him, even though she didn't really want the girls, she had a huge ego!

After they split though her words about her job not being the safest bothered him. Luckily just as he knew Autumn was leaving, Kelly came home and asked to have a night alone so she could get some things, she also asked for time with the girls. Doug couldn't deny her that, and he also knew he might catch Autumn, if there was danger, if they didn't like her quitting, he wanted to be there to protect her!

He luckily chose the right way out of the driveway, and within two blocks he had spotted Autumn's car. However words could not describe how shocked he was or how his heart sank when he saw where Autumn worked...he wanted to believe in her, but this was a shock! Little did he know that his supposed friend Jerry had learned about Autumn's other job already, and he was already waiting inside!
 
Autumn had left for work with the girls and Doug on her mimd and she was happy it was going to be her last day here at the club, she had good and bad memories here but it had kept her stable and on her feet for years and she couldnt have been more greatful for that.

She also remembered the neighbor Jerry's threats, she glanced around quickly not seeing him and breathed a sigh of relief, maybe she could do a few dances, maybe wait some tables and get out of there before he could arrive and avoid him completely that would definitely be ideal.

She changed into one of the skimpy waitress uniforms and put her hair up into a curly sexy ponytail and did her makeup in a way that accented her features even more and did a once over and got a thumbs up from a few other girls doing a small prayer with them and security for a successful night before heading to the floor.

She had been at the front high payballer tables tonight since it was her last night, some of the men were crude, drunk, but she played it off gracefully and was tipped very well , she liked tables like that who knew the rules not to touch or grope the girls no matter what they said or had to drink , it was usually the bachelors and frat boys that couldn't control themselves.

She had sworn she caught a glimpse of Doug one time but she was so busy at tables she figured she must have been seeing things.

It was dark and a little grimy inside of the gentleman's club as Doug walked in. He had seen Autumn enter in the back so there was little doubt she worked here, and the thought about made him ill. "Oh please don't let her be that..." He thought to himself, although exactly what "that" was, was still unclear to him. He was in love with her, and this did not seem like the girl he knew, the one who he had entrusted his daughters. His eyes were adjusting to the light. He was trying to get his bearings. Luckily he stayed in the back, along the edge, and he saw Jerry before Jerry saw him. What the hell was he doing here? What was she doing here? What the hell was going on?

Doug had been in places like this before, but never frequented. He didn't like them. The girls seemed soulless, he had had dances bought for him but had felt them touch him, try to induce him into something more, veiled and not so veiled promises of things that could happen in the back, champagne room, whatever. What was Autumn, his Autumn doing here? Did she let men see her completely naked? God he hoped not, did she dance? How far did she go? Did she let them touch her? Did she touch them, grind on them like he saw some of the girls doing here in their "table dances"? If she did, everything she said to him would have been a lie. Worse, did she take guys in the back? Doing whatever, he had friends that had gotten handjobs and blowjobs in this very place! Oh my God, he might throw up!

He was on the verge of being ill, if she touched these guys, let them touch her, he just might go punch their lights out. He couldn't do that, he'd be arrested, beaten by some bouncers, maybe both. He wanted to keep an open mind, and he would try to blend into the background. Let her actions, his observations speak for themself. He saw her walk out, and it killed him. She was gorgeous and sexy, too gorgeous, too sexy! She was his...or was she? Their eyes actually met for a second, but she did not seem to be eying the men and he was in the dark, or near dark. Just in case, he went to the front area and bought a baseball cap and sun glasses. These would be thrown out upon his departure. Somehow he needed to see what she did, if she danced and did she strip? What did she do with the men, what did she allow them to do do her? Would she get totally naked? God his heart was beating so fast.

He got his disguise and came back and stayed against the wall. He had a few dancers approach him, asking if he wanted to take a seat, have a dance, or better, go to the champagne room? Doug politely but firmly declined all overtures. So far Autumn was waiting tables, smiling but not really looking at anyone. It was then that Doug saw where Jerry was seated, alone in another area, staring at Autumn. He was in a different area than where Autumn was, but when she turned, he tried to signal for her attention.

Doug couldn't believe it. Jerry was scum, a pervert, if he was a customer of Autumns, god forbid a regular, well, that would say a lot. Doug thought he knew her, trusted her, had he been a fool? Autumn didn't seem to see Jerry and went and got a platter full of drinks for the table she had just taken the order. A bunch of suits ranging from 20's to 50's. When she came back, she was careful in how she served them, how she bent her knees, putting the beer and cocktails on the table, not showing anymore than her outfit already revealed. Smiling, never touching, not really every looking at them, but fuck how they looked at her, salivating wolves! There seemed to be some sort of tape that did not allow the top to go up and reveal any more of her breasts. Doug liked that, there was already too much. God damn, he had thought she was truly his? Now he didn't know what to think, he could feel his heart breaking.

She had just placed the last beer on the table and gone to turn, when some thirtyish guy in a suit reached up to grab at her waist and ass, seemingly wanting to pull her toward him, even onto his lap. That was the first anyone had tried to touch her. Doug felt his heart drop, this would tell him something, he heard the guy say, "C'mon baby, you are the hottest thing here...how about a nice lap dance right now....trust me, I am ready for you" Doug was sure the pig was referencing some sort of hard on...he swallowed hard...waiting to see what Autumn, the girl he thought was in love with him, would do?
 
Autumn had seen Jerry from the corner of her eye but she would not allow him to ruin her last day and she was making tons of cash. She was having a smooth day until she felt the hand at her waist. She sighed knowing the man was intoxicated and saw all the other men looking at her as well probably seeing if she was willing so they coukd get their chance as well.

She removed his hand gently but sternly and looked over toward Chubs one of the security who was already making his way over to them and she just said " Sorry im just a server" she said picked up the empty cups careful not to bend over and put her ass on full display for these men , she saw one guy move it further so she had no choice to but she just sighed picked it up quickly and was relieved security had reached the table. She heard one guy mention paying to fuck her and tossing ones at her before being escorted out and she just picked up her tip and moved to the next table ot wasnt anything she wasnt used to at the club.

She also noticed they were busier than normal tonight and she sighed hearing she had a special request table and she had a pretty good idea on who it was. She took a breath and carried the order over and saw Jerry basically salivating at seeing her like this and being so close. She placed the order down and stepped back just in case he had any ideas and said " Thatll be 45$" she said trying to remain professional but knowing exactly what he wanted and knew he was impatient if he tried his luck shed knew security would put him out.
 
Part of Doug was hoping she would slap the guy for daring to touch HIS girl! However, she handled it very professionally signaling for the bouncer to come over. The guy did not go down that easy though. She removed his hand from her ass, and when the guy tried to proposition her, he was thrown out. It didn't seem to bother her, which did bother Doug a bit. Why did she do this, she was so much better than this? Why did she keep working here even after getting the job with them, with him?

Doug was feeling a little better, but then he saw her walk over toward Jerry, and again he literally felt sick. Jerry watched her set the order down and step back. " Thatll be 45$" Jerry had his phone ready and took a picture of Autumn in her sexy outfit. "Where do you think you are going, come over here, I wonder who will find this more interesting Doug...or Kelly?" He waited and just looked at her. "Come here....please....I thought we had an understanding...tonight?"

Doug had moved around and only heard the very last part, "An understanding...tonight..." Oh God, he couldn't believe it and almost walked out then, but instead he stayed. Sort of like a car crash, he had to know what happened, no matter how much he wanted to look away?
 
Autumn was pissed at the photo he took of her and furious he was serious about what he had expected of her.

"That wont be happening Jerry .. ever" she said sternly and had a slight frown at him saying hed mention it to Doug or Kelly. "There are plenty of girls that do what you want here and im not one of them , this is my last night here and i dont want a scene, if you dont leave me alone i might have to involve authorities and i wouldn't want to be a bad neighbor" she said nicely but sternly knowing hed blow up about her rejection, he didnt seem like a man who took no for an answer.

She saw the anger in his face and quickly put his card down steoping back a little moe afraid he might strike her or do something bizarre like grab her and have his way.

She was tempted to scream for security but because he had chosen a spot that was pretty much out of sight they wouodnt be able to see her well.

" Please... can you just drop this Jerry?" She asked and looked at him.
 
Doug moved closer, but still keeping out of sight, he needed to hear Autumn's answer. He was so in love with her, but didn't know what he would do, if she was willing to be with me like that. Actually he did know, he wouldn't have been able to stay with her, she would break his heart like he had never known possible.

"That wont be happening Jerry .. ever...There are plenty of girls that do what you want here and i'm not one of them , this is my last night here and i don't want a scene, if you dont leave me alone i might have to involve authorities and i wouldn't want to be a bad neighbor"

Doug had heard all he needed to, he was pretty sure Jerry would soon be coming out, and he would be waiting. Doug had raised his phone and took a picture himself of Jerry. But he had been careful not to show anything of Autumn that could be seen by others. Doug started to walk out, but turned as Jerry did not seem to take "No" for an answer!

Jerry was just staring at her, " Please... can you just drop this Jerry?" He sneared, he had not seen Doug at all, and who was this bitch to take back what she promised. He moved a bit toward her. "Drop what, the fact you work half naked and probably strip for anyone giving enough money. I think Doug and Kelly would like to know the influence watching their sweet girls. You said you were coming over...but I will take it now. Yeah I'll drop...just give me 15 minutes in the champagne room...." He put his tongue in his cheek, signifying a blow job. "You take care of me...and I'll take care of your secret..." Jerry was not leaving without a blowjob, a hand job...and touching Autumns incredible body...he had no fear she would actually call security...he looked at her in complete defiance, he was not taking no for an answer!"
 
Autumn was disgusted, what she had agreed t9 was a dance at most she wouldmnever have sex with a man like Jerry, it wasnt that he wasnt handsome, it was the fact that she was in love woth doug and men like him thought womens bodies were theor property.

" I said no " she said and backed up " Now leave me alone Jerry, i am not doing that with you.. EVER and i wouldnt want to have to file a harassment report with the club or police ....this -Doug and Kelly dont need to find out about this or find out who they have living next door...im sure some of the neighbors wouldnt like to hear that youve harrassed me " she said pissed " Like I said...there are other girls here happy to join younin the champagne room but i am not one of them. She said and looked at him seriously "Just drop it now"

She backed up even more afraid of his reaction and started to walk away. She noticed Jerry still at his table fuming and decided that was enough for her formthe night, she just wanted to get back to Doug and the girls safely so she packed her bags of money at least five bags, it was the most shes ever made had tomp be at least 400k and she planned on spoling the girls with toy cars.

She hurried toward the exit trying to be unseen what she hadnt expected was for Jerry to be right behind her every step and she was terrified and quickly made her way to her car as calmly and quickly as she could not noticing Doug had been waiting outside .
 
Doug had already seen to much of his neighbor and supposed friend, luckily he saw Autumn walking out, before she saw him. She was still dressed as she had been on the floor, and was obviously in a hurry to leave. Doug slipped into the shadows and watched her quickly go to the car. He would not confront her, but he did hope she would come and tell him the truth.

But mere moments after Autumn walked out, out came Jerry, and Doug had little doubt he was trying to follow Autumn. Doug was not ready to make a scene, so instead, with his back to Jerry, he stepped in front of him and moved slowly. Jerry tried to move around him, but like he was playing basketball back in high school, Doug moved and blocked him out from advancing. After two or three attempts, Doug felt Jerry push him in the back, "What the fuck is the matter with you dude, I am in a hurry!"

Doug had his eyes on Autumn's car and saw her pull out of the lot, but she was not headed toward their house, or at least it didn't appear so. With her gone, Doug spun on his heel and grabbed Jerry by the collar and pushed him back against one of the parked cars. "I'll tell you what my problem is dude! You and the fact you are harrassing my Nanny!" Doug balled his fingers into a fist, "Jerry, what in the hell have you been doing here....I know God damn well, there is already one restraint order against you, you were never to set foot inside of here again..."

Just then a Police officer came up and grabbed Doug's arm, "Do we have a problem here sir?" Doug turned to him and smiled, "I don't think so, or do we Jerry?"
 
Autumn drove with no destination in mind her eyes now full of tear and she had started crying scared frommthe experince , what wouod Jerry have done if he actually got to her, she was so gladl she decided not to dance anymore , the men who attended just seemed to get worse and Jerry was one of them.

After driving around for 20 minutes, she headed home looking a wreck, still in uniform and mascara stained tears on her cheeks. She carried the money to the greenhouse and stuffed it in the closet and wanted to forget her night.

She knew Jerry wouod tell now, she just wondered how Doug would react to whatbshe now formerly did. Would he think she did what other girls offered for more money? Or would he understand she had done it to support herself?

She ran her finger through her hair and sat on the couch and sighed and while she had her head down she heard the door open. At first she stood up to go to the bedroom. If she needed to hide but she was relieved and nervous seeing it was Doug who was standing in the doorframe.

Jerry waved the police officer off, and Doug waited for him to pull away before turning back to Jerry and landing as hard of a right hook on his jaw as he could do. "You are a fucking pig man, I never want to see you around me or anyone I care about again. And if I do...God help you!" Jerry looked into Doug's eyes and there was no mistaking the truth that lied there.

Doug headed home, he didn't know what exactly to do or say to Autumn. He did not understand why she hadn't told him the truth, not at the beginning, but eventually, and he also had do ask. He hated to, but if she had ever done anything sexual with a man for money, it didn't matter how much he loved her, he could not let her further impact his daughter's lives. That was a line he could not ever get over.

He pulled in and saw that Autumn was there. He killed the lights, hoping Kelly did not see, and he headed to her place. He knocked but heard no answer, so he opened the unlocked door. He was in love with this woman, but this was the moment of truth, he saw her there. "Hi...are you okay...can we talk?"
 
Autumns eyes welled up and she couldn't stop the tears that began to flow as he asked could they talk. She had been absolutely terrified after that encounter with Jerry but seeing Doug was more than welcome even though she was certain he knew what her other job was now from what she was wearing despite the ruined makeup from her crying.

She sniffled and grabbed something to cover up despite her and Doug making love plenty of times she didnt want him to see her like this or think any less of her for what she used to do to support herself.

She made her way over to the couch tears still flowing but silent she was just relieved it hadnt been their neighbor. She sat next to Doug unsure of where to start , holding her robe and looking at her hands, she was afraid to look in his eyes , afraid he would want her to leave now that he knew and she wouldnt blame him, she would understand, he was an amazing father before anything.

She held his hand head turned away slightly and held down " I- I'm sorry" she said softly and looked up into his eyes seeing the concern there and a little disappointment and wiping a bit of her tears "Im shaken up ...but im relieved its you... im glad seeing it was you at my door"
 
Doug's heart went out to Autumn, tears had her mascara running down her cheeks and it didn't appear as if they were stopping. He waited for her to sit down next to him and settle. This might be a long talk, he wanted to understand, he wanted to be supportive, but he hated thinking of her at a place like that, dealing with some of those men.

He pulled her into his arms and just held her before taking her hand again and looking into her eyes.

"Shaken up? Were you hurt at all? Tell me what happened, and what is going on?"

He needed to say more. "Autumn, you know or should know, I have fallen in love with you, but you have kept a big secret, please help me understand, why?"

He didn't know how to bring up the question that he had to know, had she ever had any sexual relationship with any of the customers there, gotten any of them off for money, or let them do anything to her? In or outside the club?

He also didn't know whether to tell her he had actually been there that night, he hoped she would just tell him the truth.
 
Autumn shook her head and he asked if she was hurt and asked her what happened " No , im okay i could've been... i was just scared.." she looked into his eyes as he told her he loved her and wanted to know why she kept the secret.

" Doug I- I jsut didnt want you looking at me like everyone else did once they knew what I did, I alwady had no home, i didnt know if you could handle the fact that i was an entertainer and bartender as well" she saw the expression in his face and held his hand " No i ve never been sexual or intimate with men in that club, ive always known better , i danced and bartended to support myself thats it, id crash at hotels during the winter and fall when it was too cold and spent summers and warm days in my car, there was a time or twomid crash with friends but the minute anything inappropriate happened or i was uncomfortable id leave." She said and looked away for a second " It wasnt something i was exactly proud of doing baby.."

She looked toward the door for a second eyes welling up again and was contemplating whether or not to tell him about Jerry and she knew she should " Your neighbor... the one we met in the store...Hes been stalking me..blackmailimg me.." she said and looked down at her hands " he found out ant threatened to tell you and Kelly and he wanted me to sleep with him pretty much tried to blackmail and force me to and i refused... i left early tonight, got out of there as fast as i could... he wouldnt take no for an answer and i was so scared he was pretty much chasing me out of the club i was scared he was going to hurt me.. or worse.." she said tears flowing freely

Her hands shook a little and she looked at him " Ive heard about men like him who preyed on dancers at the club and i was terrified hed do something awful and id never see you or the girls again.. i drove around for a bit before i realized he wasnt following and once i felt safe enough i came back here"she said and sighed wondering what Doug thought about all of this, she just hoped he didnt look at her any differently.
 
Doug listened carefully, and waited until he finished. He wanted to tell her the truth. "Autumn, for the first time I followed you tonight, I wanted to protect you as you made me think you were worried. And, I have to tell you, I was really shocked, I just never thought of you being in front of men like that. But I think I do understand how you started and how you survived."

He put his hand on her back comforting her, "I saw Jerry, but waited, I wasn't sure what he was doing there, and I guess I had to make sure he wasn't invited or welcome. I hated how those men handled you or tried to, I mean you took care of if, but dang, no man has a right to touch you like that, unless you want him to, and I hope the only one you want touching you is me!" he stopped and looked into her eyes.

I heard what you said, but please, be honest. "Have you ever considered helping any of the men enjoy themselves, you know...cum? Has any of this ever turned you on, did you ever want more?" He held his breath.

"I was waiting for Jerry when he came out, he is a pig...." He laughed, "I think I broke his jaw, and I took a picture, if he ever comes after you he is going to jail for a long time, he broke a court order, he is not allowed in that place, you aren't the first dancer he stalked!"

He cradled her chin in his hand, "I just don't understand, why, once you got this job you didn't quit, why did you keep going back there, didn't you trust me, didn't you know that I would take care of you, that I would never want to have you be in a place like that?...Did you think of me while you were there?"

He loved her so much, but it was as if she hadn't trusted him, or he and the girls hadn't been enough to make her want to leave all that behind her. He had to know that she had no desire for any aspect of that life, none at all!
