The next morning was very quiet. Through the night the nurses looked after their patient, with a 3am vomiting moment being the highlight, although Emma briefly panicked not recognising the room or the carers, then saw Jack who managed to calm her down, and help her to get back to sleep.
Breakfast was a somber affair, with very little appetite around the table as Jack, Angela, Debbie and Laura sipped on coffee and nibbled at toast. Their two guests appeared a little later though both were very subdued. Angela took both away for a quiet chat and made both promise to seek counselling when they returned home.
Emma finally spoke.
"I don't even know where to begin. But momma raised me right and I'll start by saying thank you for looking after me and making sure my boo was okay too. Jack I'm pretty sure that wasn't the night you were planning on...it certainly wasn't what I had in mind! Angela you are an absolute saint and I won't ever be able to thank you for your hospitality. And as for my two angels here...The main thing I guess is everyone is okay."
"Emma darling, you're welcome here any time. I hope to get to see you if you are coming back to do that movie in the spring, however right now the best thing that you can do is tonight go show up as the amazing, talented women that you are. It's probably for the best that we don't know who is responsible, as our Debbie is a second dan black belt in Tae Kwon Do, and would likely feed him his bollocks with fava beans and a delightful chianti."
That joke broke the subdued mood just a little bit and raised a chuckle around the table, with Debbie merely nodding in a way that suggested that Angela was not far off the mark. At that point Jennifer's phone rang, with Mandy obviously burning the midnight oil in LA. She chatted for a few minutes, then signalled to Emma who took the phone and after a couple more minutes, waved to Jack.
"So Jack the blood tests tell us it was Rohypnol and we think it was meant for my girl? That fucker is never going to work anywhere by the time I'm finished, but that's not your concern. I'm sending security for tonight...it's not a reflection on you and in most towns we would normally do it anyway, but in the circumstances it's prudent. I'm also sending a car for Emma with a minder to get her back to her hotel, so watch out for that. I'll text you the details so you know what to look for."
Jack assured her that Emma was going nowhere unless he was sure it was safe.
"Now I can't get you in to the ceremony, those tickets are like gold dust. But I have procured 4 tickets for the after party that I insist on you, Angela and your two nurses come to. It's a rather swanky affair, but I bet you'll fit right in. It's nothing really, but right now it's a tiny way to say thank you."
"That's very generous Mandy, but I'm sure it will be much appreciated. If you need anything else let me know."
Mandy assured him she would and ended the call. Jack returned the phone to Jenn, who looked a little brighter at this point and was pleased to see her friend coming around. The two actresses stepped aside and were in an animated conversation. They gestured Jack to join them.
Jennifer spoke in hushed tones.
"So Jack I'm having a little trouble convincing Ms Stone here of what's gone on the last couple of days. She thinks I'm at best exaggerating or outright telling lies about my sex life since I arrived here."
"Jack honey, my boo tells the best stories. But I find it hard to believe that she fingered your girlfriend and that blonde tv woman while at dinner the other night. That's bullshit, right?"
Jennifer, as usual, punched her friends arm but then invited Jack to tell her everything.
"Well that was a busy day. To be fair it really started the night before when Jenn walked in on Angela, Debbie and myself. We didn't notice her there until her orgasm..I presume watching us was a fun experience. Then that day after doing a bit of shopping we had a very pleasurable half hour after the lingerie show she put on for me."
Jennifer blushed ever so slightly at that.
"That afternoon there was an interview, we came back and she took Angela upstairs. I was eventually invited to join them though we didn't fuck again until the shower afterwards. We went to dinner, and Ms Lawrence had her hand up Angela's and Holly's skirt during the meal, taking my girlfriend to the ladies room and fingering her to what I understand was a very satisfactory orgasm. We went back to Holly's place, she watched me fuck our host for a bit before going to another room to pleasure Angela. I think after that Holly blindfolded and handcuffed her, then they shared a double ended dildo and fucked until they both came, then we finally went home. This morning I awoke to find Jennifer riding my morning erection."
"Oh that's so good baby, so much fun."
Jennifer briefly mimicked her sex voice which made Jack chuckle.
Emma however looked vaguely stunned by the tale.
"Damn boo, I honestly thought you were telling tall tales. But I don't think Jack here is a liar, so I'm inclined to think that this trip has been a wild adventure for you. I was hoping for a kiss and maybe to watch you two fuck, seeing as all you've done is talk about this man and his amazing cock."
That had the trio burst out laughing, and for a moment, the wild tale of Jennifer's adventures were enough to let both forget the night before. Jack's phone buzzed and he got the instructions for Emma's transport back to her hotel. Jennifer took Emma back to her room and they returned with her wearing yoga pants, the hoodie from the other day and a pair of Angela's trainers. Jack answered the door shortly after and spoke briefly with the driver and security, both of whom he knew. Emma was just about to walk out when she turned and hugged Jack tightly and whispered thank you in his ear. With a promise to have her dress cleaned and delivered to her hotel, she left.
Jack saw Angela and Jennifer having a discrete conversation, and was just about to return to the table and a fresh cup of coffee, when the doorbell rang and a large envelope was handed over only after Jack had signed for it. He opened it and smiled...there inside were indeed four invitations to the BAFTA after party as well as security wrist bands that they would need.
Debbie's curiosity got the better of her and trotted over to him. She spotted the BAFTA mask logo, and then gasped when she saw her name on an invitation. Jennifer was broadly grinning at this point and they all clustered round to listen to Jack.
"Miss Jennifer Lawrence wishes to invite you as her honoured guest to the reception following the award ceremony. R.S.V.P. Dress is black tie."
There were squeals and laughs as the group realised their plans for the evening had radically changed.
