Thank you everyone for your detailed feedback.
Ms. Southworth, I'm glad that you loved the conversation between the women. As you can see they didn't see the BBC news while out shopping as we thought it was more important that they got proper time to bond and have a heart to heart talk. But don't worry someone will see it on the news...
Sanda, I'm glad you loved Pam & Sue Ellen's conversation too. I agree about John Ross and Chris but they are teenagers and they are gonna act like teenagers in this story which means that adults sometimes will find them annoying!
Silvie, I'm glad that you loved the update and yes Pam and Sue Ellen are still close. I guess they both sense that they need an ally in the house to make their stay there easier.
Honkytonkangel, I'm glad that you're enjoying the women's friendship. Well Sue Ellen do give Pam some advice about Christopher and fills her in a bit about what happened after she left. But she's not getting into an arguement with her about abandoning Christopher since that won't make anything better.
You're right both women still have feelings for their ex-husbands.
Yep Chris & John Ross are typical teenagers in this story. That means they sometimes pull some stupid shit but they can be quite entertaining while getting into trouble too!
Okay so it's time for another update:
At the multiplex had Miss Ellie, Clayton and Rebecca moved on into the movie area when Christopher and John Ross finally came back with the candy and popcorns. Noticing that their grandparents and Rebecca were no longer in the spot where they’d last seen them Christopher said, “Looks like they’ve already gone into the cinema.”
“Yeah we’d better follow them,” John Ross said before they walked up to the guard, who checked the tickets before letting people into the area where they could enter nine different projector rooms.
“May I see your tickets please?” The guard asked. He was an elderly man with gray hair who looked like he was about ready for his retirement any day now.
“Yes here sir,” Christopher said and he and John Ross held up their tickets for the guard to see.
“Hmm…” the guard frowned.
“Is there a problem sir?” John Ross asked.
“No it’s just that I thought boys your age were too old to watch cartoons?” The guard said, well aware of that buying tickets to another movie and then sneak into an adult movie was a common trick among the teenagers in Dallas. During his 40 years of working as a guard he took great pleasure in being one of the few people who had busted more teenagers than any of his colleagues.
“We are. It’s just that my little sister picked the movie,” Christopher said.
“Oh really?” The guard crossed his arms in front of him. “So where is your little sister now?”
“Oh she’s already gone in with grandma and grandpa. We just went to buy the snacks,” Christopher said and the guard sighed, as he’d heard better lies than that before. But since he couldn’t prove it, he just tore their tickets and made a mental note to keep his eyes on those boys. John Ross and Christopher then went into the movie area and started to look for their grandparents and Rebecca.
After a moment Clayton called out, “Hey John Ross and Christopher, over here.” Christopher and John Ross smiled as they hurried over to Clayton, Miss Ellie and Rebecca who were waiting outside of the projector room showing
Pochahontas.
“What took you so long?” Miss Ellie asked. “The movie is about to start soon.”
“Oh just the queues…” John Ross said. “Anyway here you go, one small popcorn for grandma and grandpa Farlow and candy and pop corn for Rebecca.” The boys then handed the stuff to Clayton, Miss Ellie and Rebecca.
Rebecca frowned as she was missing something, “Where’s my peanuts?”
“Oh no we forgot to buy peanuts,” Christopher said and twinkled his eyes at John Ross.
“But I want peanuts,” Rebecca whined.
“Yeah and a soda wouldn’t be too bad to wash down the pop corns with,” Clayton said.
“Oh that’s not a problem we could go back and get one for you,” John Ross offered.
“But are you sure?” Miss Ellie asked. “I mean with those queues you’re going to miss the beginning of the movie.”
“Yes we’re sure we don’t mind missing a few minutes,” Christopher insisted.
“You can go in ahead we’ll find you,” John Ross said.
“Well thank you John Ross and Christopher,” Miss Ellie smiled before she, Clayton and Rebecca walked into projector room 3 where they were going to watch
Pocahontas. John Ross and Christopher waited until they were gone and then they hurried over to projector room 9 where they were showing
French Twist. The guys walked into the projector room and sat down in the front row while the trailers for the other films were being shown.
“Oh check in those babes,” John Ross said, as he spotted some older blond teenage girls in short mini-skirts who were sitting down on the same row.
“Yeah they sure looks great, but aren’t they a little too old for us?” Christopher asked.
John Ross grinned, “No I like older girls.”
“But we don’t like younger guys. I mean if I had a boyfriend as young as you are I’d be ashamed to show myself in public on dates,” one of the girls said, as she had overheard their conversation.
“Yeah who ever let you minors in here anyway?” The other girl asked.
“Yeah I bet you two are going to get thrown out of here before the movie starts so you can’t watch it,” the other girl said.
This angered Christopher who said, “No we’re not. But I bet you’re going to be thrown out.”
“Not very likely but you minors will most certainly get caught,” one of the girls said tauntingly.
This angered Christopher who stood up and was about to walk over to the girls when John Ross stopped him and pulled him down to his seat again, “No don’t do anything stupid the movie is about to start.”
Christopher sat down again, “I’m sorry but their whole attitude just makes me so angry.”
“I know but never mind them, I was wrong they aren’t babes. They are witches…”
“Oh yeah they are witches. Hey look where did they go?”
“I don’t know but I guess they took their broom sticks and flew off,” John Ross joked and the boys laughed before they turned their attention towards the screen where the movie finally started. “Oh yeah that is what I call a babe” John Ross grinned, when a brunette woman dressed in sexy clothes showed up on screen.
“Yeah I think I’m going to like this movie,” Christopher smiled. “So do you think we’ll get to see some boobs?”
“Yeah sure it wouldn’t be a French movie if we don’t get to see anything,” John Ross grinned.
But the grin was soon washed off his face when all of a sudden a voice said, “That’s enough boys.”
Looking up John Ross and Christopher went pale as they saw the guard, who had checked their tickets standing there. Christopher asked sheepishly, “Um…what’re you doing here?”
“Some girls tipped me off that there were some minors in the cinema and it seems like they were right.”
“No sir, we’re not minors,” John Ross said and tried to lower his voice to sound more adult.
“Oh really?” The guard asked. “So can you show me your tickets and IDs please?”
“Um…I forgot my ID at home,” Christopher said and the guard gave them a stern look.
But John Ross was not that easily defeated as he said, “Hey I have a better idea. How about forgetting all about this little incident?” John Ross picked up 20 dollars and waved in front of the guard.
The guard looked thoughtfully at the boys when Christopher said, “How about making that 40 dollars sir?”
The guard then smiled before he said, “I recognize that, I bet you two must be the Ewing boys aren’t you?”
“Oh that’s right my daddy is Bobby Ewing,” Christopher smiled.
“And my dad’s JR Ewing,” John Ross said.
“Figures as you boys are just like your dads. They used to sneak in here too when they were young,” the guard said.
“Great, so we have a deal then?” John Ross grinned.
“No deal,” the guard said. “Now move it boys,” the guard said and Christopher and John Ross, who realized that they were busted stood up and started walking out of the cinema.
“Oh great, I guess it’s back to Pocahontas,” Christopher sighed.
“On no, not so fast boys you two are coming with me to my office.”
“What?” John Ross exclaimed.
“But our grandma’s waiting for us at Pocahontas,” Christopher complained.
“Right she is and I’m Santa Claus,” the guard laughed, since he didn’t believe them. “No you two are going nowhere but to my office where we’re going to call your parents.”
“Hell no!” John Ross cursed. “You can’t do that.”
“Yes I can, now move it boys and I hope your daddys are in a good mood because you’re in a lot of trouble,” the guard smiled, as he walked towards his office pushing the two angry teenage boys in front of him.
I can't help but wonder what kind of magazines John Ross keeps under his pillow at night? 
But then again it's not unusual for teens to do that. I remember some girls in my class went to watch Bodyguard at the movies when we were like 13 and it had a 15 year age limit. I think they put on lots of make up to look older though...
Nice to know how they both feel about being back in Dallas. :fantastic:
