‘Do you think it’s clean?’ I whispered.
‘Wow, this spontaneity thing is really getting me extra horny.’ The sarcasm in his voice palpable.
‘Sorry, but I don’t want to lie in someone else’s love juices.’
‘Neither do I,’ he laughed. ‘Which is why they have a bell on the table with the condoms and lube sachets. When you’re done, you ring and someone comes and changes the sheets.’ I raised an eyebrow at him. ‘All in the rules and information.’
‘Rules and Information? Wow, we really do know how to make our sex spontaneous and raw, don’t we?’ I laughed.
‘We do normally,’ he replied as he pulled me to him and yanked on my pony tail. ‘These are exceptional circumstances and we’re both a little nervous.’
‘You are too?’
‘Hmmm,’ he nodded and shut me up by kissing me. I put my arms around his waist and slid my hands down inside his trousers to find he was commando. I gripped his pert buttocks and squeezed and he reciprocated as his tongue entwined with mine. I could feel the heat building between us again, the urgency to have each other, to feel him filling me, and the noises around us amplified that need. I could feel his erection pressing into my pelvis and I rotated my hips to grind against it, making him groan into my mouth.
‘Now,’ I ordered breathlessly as I pulled away. ‘Before I lose my nerve.’
‘Get on the bed on all fours, facing the room,’ he ordered. I nodded and quickly scrambled into position. My eyes widening as I took in what was going on all around us. I could see tangled limbs, threesomes, girl on girl, guy on guy and plenty of onlookers getting in the mood. I felt Gabe climb onto the bed behind me and heard his zip being lowered, then felt the crotch of my knickers being pulled to one side as he guided himself into position. I was already turned on enough from our little display earlier, he didn’t need to check or stimulate me any further.
‘Gabe,’ I gasped as he gripped my hips and rammed into me. My arms trembled as I looked down at the black satin sheet below me and panted. He’d set a mind blowing pace, the sound of his flesh slapping mine, his balls ricocheting off my thighs. He suddenly grabbed my pony tail and pulled my head back, making sure my eyes were on the room. ‘Gabe?’ I whimpered as I saw a couple standing right in front of us watching, the woman in lingerie and suspenders and the man in just tight boxers.
‘You know what to say, baby.’ He was giving me an out, but I was determined to see it through. I had a feeling it would be the last time we came to the 710 club, or anywhere like it ever again, and I wanted to at least say I’d tried something new, to have something sexual with Gabe that he’d never had with his other women.
‘Harder, Sir,’ I replied as he spanked me while thrusting. He circled his hips making me cry out, and as he stimulated me the tingle I felt spreading outwards was encouraged by the man in front of me. He was standing behind his partner, having freed her one breast from her bra he was kneading it, while he slid the other hand inside her knickers. The look on her face, I imagined, was a miniature version of mine, but nothing could feel as good as Gabe filling me completely. ‘Sir?’ I mewled as my climax built.
‘You’ll come for me as soon as I tell you to, baby,’ he answered gruffly.
‘Yes, Sir.’ I tried to nod but he was holding my hair so tightly I couldn’t move my head. My jaw dropped as I let out little gasps of pleasure, the man in front had his eyes fixated on mine while he played with her and she was focussed completely on Gabe. I wondered what it was doing for him? Was he enjoying that?
‘Now, I want you to come now,’ he ordered. I screamed as I shattered, clenching down on him, my whole body shuddering again and again. I heard Gabe groan, but nothing happened inside. He wasn’t finished with me yet. He tugged my hair again. ‘Up, onto your knees,’ he barked. Damn he was so hot when he ordered me about in bed. I pulled myself up, him still buried deep inside of me and listened to the woman opposite panting as her partners hand moved faster. Gabe put a hand on my stomach and the other at the base of my throat as he kissed and bit my neck and I angled it to allow him to get a proper mouthful. As he started to move his hips again, I reached up and picked up his hand and gently placed it on my neck. He stiffened behind me, we’d spent a lot of time letting me get accustomed to him holding me there, but not during sex. I tightened my grip, making his fingers curve around and hold me tighter, before reaching up and grasping the back of his head as I twisted mine to kiss him.
‘Gabe,’ I groaned as our lips awkwardly clashed between thrusts. I placed my other hand over his on my stomach and he parted his fingers to let me nudge mine between. He was lifting my knees off the bed with the power of some of his thrusts and I heard a groan from in front of me.
‘Watch them,’ Gabe whispered against my lips. I let go of his head and reached around to grab his backside and dug my nails in as I turned to look ahead and gasped to see more people were watching us. The woman of our two original onlookers was sobbing and quaking as he finger fucked her while watching us. It was too much, I cried out Gabe’s name as I came again and heard him groan as he bit my ear and blasted my insides multiple times, holding me steady as I quivered in front of him. The woman in front screamed her way to an explosive orgasm and the man quickly dragged her off and threw her down on the next available bed and dropped his trousers. I panted and closed my eyes.
‘O. My. God,’ I whispered. ‘I can’t believe we just did that.’
‘Me neither,’ he chuckled. ‘So I want kiss you and snuggle, but I don’t want to do it here. Can we go home now?’
‘Yes please, Sir,’ I replied as I twisted my head to look at him.
‘I love you,’ he smiled with a shake of his head. ‘And I’m loving my new title.’
‘And I love you bossing me around,’ I smiled and his face lit up. ‘In bed only,’ I added quickly and giggled as I watched his face fall slightly.
‘But I’m very good at bossing you around,’ he protested with a quick peck on my lips.
‘You are, but if you remember you asked out a feisty, mouthy, hot headed and stubborn girl. I can’t submit all the time, I still need to be me.’
‘I married that girl, but as long as you submit in the bedroom when I order you to, I’ll happily accept you as you are.’
New Arrivals
We were curled up on the sofa in front of the fire reading when we finally got the call, Sofia was in labour. We’d decided that rather than potentially miss the birth, we’d miss the first few weeks of term so that we could be in New York when it happened. We were beginning to wonder if it ever would, as we had to get back in a few days for my implant for the new round of IVF I’d reluctantly agreed to.
‘Shit, shit, where’s all the information on the hospital?’ asked Gabe as he frantically rummaged in his jeans pockets.
‘Calm down, you left it all on the console table by the door so we could grab it on our way out. Ring Antonio and see if he can get us there promptly, if not we’ll get a taxi.’
‘What if something goes wrong?’
‘With getting there?’
‘With the birth?’
‘Gabe, Robert has her under the care of the top Doctor in New York, if she can’t deliver this baby no one can. Get your coat, you’ll freeze going out like that.’ I rubbed his shoulder, he was all wound up. I figured he was worried after our set back, but also having lost his sibling when he was younger. I grabbed my bag and wrapped my coat around myself and picked up the two large gift bags. I’d decided we’d buy for a boy and for a girl and write both cards. Robert and Sofia had decided that they didn’t want to know the sex and wanted it to be a surprise. Whichever it wasn’t, I told Gabe that we could give the gift to the hospital for any babies that had been abandoned or orphaned. ‘Ready?’
‘Car keys, I can’t find them.’
‘We don’t have a car, we’re in New York, you were ringing Antonio,’ I gently reminded him.
‘Fuck! I’m a bundle of nerves,’ he sighed as he
ran a hand through his hair and placed the call.
We were directed up to the maternity wing and then down to Sofia’s private room. No one was waiting outside and we had no idea if she was even still in labour, either in there or somewhere else. I figured as we couldn’t hear any screaming, from Sofia or a baby, they were somewhere else. I sat Gabe on a seat outside her room and went to get him a black coffee, then held his hand as he jerked his knee up and down rapidly. We’d been waiting about forty minutes when we suddenly saw Robert striding up the corridor toward us, a huge smile on his face.
‘Dad?’ Gabe leapt up as he approached.
‘They’re fine, they’re both fine. You have a very beautiful and healthy nine pound baby sister, Gabriel,’ he announced proudly. I clapped my hands and started crying while Gabe and his dad hugged each other.
‘God Dad, I’ve been so worried. This ranks up there with when Mia was in hospital.’
‘Wait until it’s your own baby. I was nearly sick I was so nervous, just like I was with you. Mia, are you ok?’ he frowned as he turned to give me a hug.
‘Yes,’ I sobbed. ‘I’m just so happy for you.’
‘I’m sorry, this must be so hard for you both,’ he sighed as he kissed the top of my head.
‘These are happy tears for you Robert, not sad ones.’
‘Thank you, both of you. I know it’s your final year and you have so much on your plate. I can’t tell you what it means to me, to both of us, that you’re both here.’
‘We wouldn’t want to be anywhere else, Dad. So when can we see them both?’
‘Let’s go and get a drink and grab a sandwich, I’m starving. By the time we get back she should be in her room and you can come and met your sister.’
‘You both go and have something to eat,’ I advised. ‘I’ll be waiting here.’
‘You’re not coming?’ Gabe frowned.
‘Have a few minutes with your dad and I’ll find out where to give the spare gift to, ok?’
‘Please don’t go far.’
‘I won’t.’ I watched them walk away, Robert’s arm around Gabe’s shoulder, and smiled. Having a sister would do him the world of good. It was just a shame that we wouldn’t have much time with them before we had to head back. I was directed to a ward where I could leave the enormous, adorable blue teddy bear and “It’s a boy” balloon and freshened up in the ladies and returned to take a seat. I heard a cry coming from inside Sofia’s room. She was back. I dithered, wondering whether I should knock or wait for a while, in case Robert and Gabe hadn’t got back yet, but I decided to knock.
‘Come in.’
‘Sofia? It’s Mia,’ I called as I put my head around the door.
‘Mia,’ she beamed from the bed. ‘Come on, come in properly. Come and met Ava.’
‘Ava? Ava Austin? That’s a beautiful name. How are you?’ I asked as I approached the bed and saw a tiny peak of skin poking out of a pink blanket cradled in Sofia’s arms.
‘A little tired, but I’m too excited to sleep and I can’t take my eyes off her. I know I’m probably biased, but I think she’s beautiful,’ she sighed. I laughed and kissed her.
‘Congratulations, we’re so happy for you and Gabe’s been a total wreck since we got the call. He just went with Robert for something to eat, they should be back soon.’
‘I can’t wait for her to meet her big brother. Would you like to hold her?’
‘O God, I’ve never held a baby, I don’t really do babies,’ I giggled.
‘Neither did I, but Ava is family. Come on, just hold her like I am, support her head and as long as you don’t drop her you’ll be fine.’
‘Thanks,’ I laughed. ‘No pressure.’
‘Here,’ she gently passed her over to me and nodded as I looked for confirmation that I was holding her right. I carefully pushed the blanket away from her face so I could see her. She had the smoothest skin, with a definite touch of Sofia’s darker complexion and a surprising amount of black hair. I gasped as she flickered her eyes and looked at me, big blue eyes staring up at me and I reached up and wiped my eyes. ‘Mia, are you ok?’
‘Happy tears,’ I said again. ‘I usually hate babies Sofia, but she’s just adorable. I want one.’ I put my index finger in Ava’s tiny hand and she clutched it tightly and closed her eyes again.
‘I really hope you’ll be successful this time around,’ Sofia advised with a sad smile.
‘Me too. I’m not sure if I can go through it again.’ I looked up as the door opened and Gabe froze as he saw me with her in my arms. ‘Do you want to meet your big brother, Ava?’ I asked as I rocked her. She scrunched up her face and I giggled.
‘Ava?’ Gabe asked as he walked over to kiss Sofia.
‘Sofia wanted to name her Tabitha, after your mother, but … I hope you don’t mind, I felt that as a new family we shouldn’t.’
‘God Dad, no of course I don’t mind. Though that was a really sweet thought, thank you Sofia, and congratulations.’
‘Thank you, Gabe. I’m so happy that you and Mia are here.’
‘Where are the rest of your family?’ he asked, not taking his eyes of Ava and I. He had a soft look on his face, a look that said “I want that to be my baby in my wife’s arms” and it made my chest hurt.
‘We haven’t called anyone else. We wanted you and Mia to meet her first.’
‘You guys,’ I moaned and started sniffing.
‘Son, I think you’d better go and rescue your sister, Mia needs a tissue,’ Robert laughed. Gabe slowly walked over and stood looking at her in my arms.
‘Gabe? Don’t you want to hold her?’
‘I don’t know how, I’ve never picked up a baby before.’
‘Neither had I. Just make sure you support her head and hold her like I am in the crook of your arm. Here,’ I passed her over to him and giggled as he tensed up. ‘Give her your finger, she likes to grab.’
‘She’s so tiny,’ he whispered in awe. I smiled as I looked at him holding her. ‘God, I wish we had more time to spend with you all,’ he sighed.
‘Stay,’ I said quickly.
‘What?’ he looked up at me puzzled.
‘Just because I have to go back in a couple of days doesn’t mean that you have to. You have access to the study notes on your online account, you’re not needed to manage Greyson’s and there’s nothing you can do when I have the IVF implant with the frozen embryos. Stay and enjoy time with your family.’
‘But what about you? You’re family. You’d be all alone, what if you needed me?’
‘I’ll be fine. I’ll miss you, but I’ll be fine. Lexi can come to the appointment with me and we can get a taxi. And she’s right next door if I need anything.’
‘Mia, I … I just don’t know.’
‘Gabriel, Mia’s right. You live halfway across the world, it’s not like you can pop over for a quick visit. Stay, you can come to live with us at Sofia’s for some company. You can spend time with your sister.’
‘Are you sure?’ He looked at all three of us in turn. I nodded and smiled.
‘Gabe we’d love to have you, plus it will be good practice for you for when you have your own baby. Men have to be hands on nowadays,’ she advised with a poignant look at Robert, who rolled his eyes and laughed.
‘Well, I guess it would nice to spend time with you all. Plus Mia and I have talked about your job offer Dad, I’m going to accept. Maybe you could show me around and give me an idea of what I’m letting myself in for?’
‘Can this day get any better?’ Robert beamed as he slapped him on the back looking touched.
‘Here, have your daughter back,’ Gabe smiled and handed her over. He came and kissed my temple and put his arm around me.
‘Are you ok?’ he whispered.
‘I am, I’m really happy for them,’ I replied as I dabbed my eyes.
‘Hey baby,’ I smiled as Gabe’s face appeared on my iPad. ‘I miss you so much.’
‘God, me too,’ he groaned.
‘You miss yourself?’
‘You know what I meant, I think about you constantly. We agreed we wouldn’t ever be apart, how did this happen?’
‘You needed time with your family. How were we to know that the weather would change and they’d ground the flights? Do you think you can make it out tonight, for the news tomorrow?’
‘I don’t know, Mia,’ he sighed. ‘But Dad’s got Tommy on standby to save me waiting for a ticket with everyone else that wants to get home. Fuck, I can’t believe I’m stuck here and may miss the appointment.’
‘I’ll be fine. I’ll drive and Lexi’s offered to come with me.’
‘Great,’ he sighed again, as he ran a hand through his hair. ‘So Lexi gets to know if I’m going to be a Dad before I bloody do.’
‘I’m sorry, but if it’s bad news again I want someone there with me, Gabe.’
‘I know, I’m sorry. I’m just frustrated, that’s all. How are things there?’
‘Pretty much the same as last night,’ I laughed. We’d facetimed every night and sent texts throughout the day. I’d missed him terribly, it had been nearly four weeks since I’d left New York. ‘Greyson’s is going well, I’m acing my assignments and my dance classes are full with a waiting list. Other than not having you here with me, I’m happy. How’s Ava?’
‘O my God, she is just too cute. She screws her face up a lot and loves to hold my finger, but Christ, does her shit stink,’ he laughed.
‘Are you changing nappies?’
‘Nappies and feeding her,’ he nodded, proudly. ‘And I’ve spent time at the New York office.’
‘How did it go?’
