As I slid them down over his hips, his erection sprang free and popped out toward me, teasing me, begging me for a kiss. It took every bit of restraint not to touch him yet. I let out a sigh as I continued to press his jeans down his muscular thighs. I instructed him to have a seat on the edge of the bed, then, one leg at a time, removed his shoes, then I pulled the jeans off over his feet. He tried to stand, but I pressed him back down. It was time I took charge. I’d had enough of his teasing me. I knew what I wanted, and I wanted it right then.
My tongue caressed up his inner thigh. When I reached his testicles, I kissed them gently, before my tongue continued its pursuit of his length, up the underside of his shaft, stroking the thick, inviting vein, then up to the ridge, circling around its thickness, then out to the tip, teasing his slit before engulfing his crown. He hissed his pleasure and growled deep in the back of his throat. My eyes roamed up his beautiful body to see his eyes closed. He was mine.
I worked my mouth up and down his shaft, making sure to tease across the bulbous top before taking him back into my throat. I could feel him harden even more as he began to raise his hips to my mouth. He thrust gently in and out of my mouth. I reached down between my legs and felt the hungry wetness as I rubbed my clit. I cried out and moaned. It took no time for me to find my orgasm before Jeff removed his cock from my mouth.
“Damn, baby,” He said as he pulled me up on the bed. “Are you ready for me?”
“Fuck yeah, I’m ready. I’ve been ready.” I scooted my ass back up toward the middle of the bed, but Jeff grabbed my legs and pulled me back across the sheets toward him.
“Not so fast, sweetness.” He placed my feet on his shoulders, parted my folds, and inhaled deep. “Damn, I love your smell. I wish there was a way to bottle that scent so I could carry it with me.” He took in another deep breath, before his tongue licked down my slickness. He slid one finger in me as his tongue lapped in circles on my clit.
“Damn, baby,” I whimpered. My eyes were closed, and I was being pushed near the edge, again.
He growled again, then slid a second finger inside me, massaging deep in my core. I was so close to unraveling. His fingers kept stroking in and out while his tongue was working magic on my button. He picked up speed with his fingers, and I could feel his knuckles slam into my tender flesh.
“God. Damn. It!” I screamed out as I gripped the sheets. “Fuck!” I was squirming and pressing myself into his hand and mouth, writhing as if I were possessed.
“Oh yeah, baby. Come all over me.” He was licking and lapping as his fingers continued to slay me. “You taste so fucking sweet.”
As I came down from my high, yeah, I was high, I was fucked up out of my mind with that orgasm, I felt a cool spot on the bed. What the hell?
I raised myself up onto my elbows and noticed a huge wet spot, and Jeff was wiping his mouth off. Holy shit, please tell me I didn’t pee when I came?
“That was awesome; you squirted again, baby.”
“Um ...” I was dumbfounded and embarrassed. I guess if I had known, I could have warned him or something. “I’m sorry.”
“Don’t ever apologize. I loved it. It’s so sweet, tastes heavenly.” He stood and climbed up on the bed, kneeling beside me. “Turn and put your head up on the pillows.”
I eagerly scrambled to get into position, then spread my legs, inviting him to me. “Don’t tease me, please,” I pleaded as I massaged him lightly along his outer thighs.
He pushed my ankles back over my head slightly, raising my ass off the bed and exposing my tight knot to him as he rubbed his tip across my inviting, eager hole and ass. So much for my request. My slickness was incredible and seemed to make him even harder. He had distributed our comingled lubrication to cover me entirely. He pressed slowly against the tightness of my ass. Holding his length firmly in one hand, he flicked the head back and forth to stimulate me, hoping I wouldn’t object. As he continued to rub and poke at me, he again pressed to try to slip into my tight opening.
“Not there.” I stopped him and pressed my hand against his thigh to push him back.
“I was just messing around,” Jeff said. “Your ass looks so good, so inviting.”
“Maybe one day.” One day, like when hell freezes over.
He stole one final feel with his swollen crest before moving back up to my slit. He let my legs drop back down and placed my feet on his chest before he parted my lips, sinking slowly into me. I arched my back as he sank deeper into me, then I lifted my hips up to meet his, taking him completely. The feeling of him grinding deeper into me, touching against the deepest tissues while rubbing his pubis craftily against my aching clit forced another orgasm from me. My moans became deep sighs.
“Fuck me hard, baby.” I just wanted to feel him feverishly pound into me.
He was more than willing to oblige before he gasped out, “I don’t know how long I’ll last like this.” He changed speeds, thrusting hard and furiously, then slowing down to long, deep, sensual plunges before picking up the pace again. “Tell me when you are there again,” he uttered to me as he pressed my thighs far apart, widening the gap. His sweat was dripping down onto my stomach and mound. My hands searched his body. They felt around his muscular arms, around his waist, and down his butt, pulling him into me as if I were trying to swallow him up.
“Shit, now,” I cried out as my body quaked. Jeff intensified his movements repeatedly until I felt my orgasm rip through me, and simultaneously, he found his release. He collapsed on the bed next to me, wrapping me tightly into his arms. We laid there like that for many minutes. He showered my face with kisses.
We eventually retreated to the shower, then, after brushing our teeth, decided it was time to get something to eat, then find the tram and take a tour of the resort.
Chapter 11
The time in Hawaii flew by. Before I knew it, we were on the return flight, downhearted at the thought of returning to our normal lives. Of course, I was eager to see Abby, our family, and friends, but the time we had spent together had been so blissful.
Our flight landed late Wednesday night. I knew it was too late to get Abby; she had to have been fast asleep. Sky would drop her at day care, then I’d make sure he knew I would pick her up and that I would have her the entire weekend.
After a restful night’s sleep in our own familiar bed, we rose and busied ourselves with planning the menu for Saturday’s party. We checked with everyone to make sure they were able to make it. I scrambled to compile our pictures that we planned to show everyone into a PowerPoint presentation. We were going to take the laptop down to the movie theater and have the pictures set up to display on the large screen. I inhaled, deep in thought, and exhaled loudly.
“What’s bugging you, baby?” Jeff asked. He stood behind me and rubbed my shoulder.
“I was thinking about when we tell them all the baby news. I can just see Mom, Jackie, and probably Georgia’s mouths drop to the floor. How are we going to tell them?”
“I hadn’t really given it a whole lot of thought. I guess we can just say it.”
“I don’t know. Well, maybe. Maybe we can find some way to say it really fast.”
“That’s fine, if that’s what you want.”
I rubbed my hands across my face. “I don’t know what I want.”
Jeff stepped closer behind me, his jeans grazing across my upper back. Maybe I do know what I want. His hands set firmly on my shoulders, and he bent to kiss the top of my head. “We’ll tell them one way or another Saturday; don’t fret over something this simple.”
“You’re right.”
He walked away, and I continued uploading the pictures from the camera memory card to the hard drive on my laptop. After they finished, then I uploaded the pictures from our cell-phones to the hard drive.

Saturday was here before we knew it. I had everything ready to go for the presentation. Abby was helping me cook, or at least, I told her she was helping me. I let her get things fr
om the refrigerator for me. She spent a lot of her time playing with her doll.
“How are my two favorite girls doing in here?” Jeff broke into my concentration with his deep, sultry voice.
“Good,” Abby replied. She didn’t look up from her doll. I looked up and smiled once Jeff’s gaze met mine.
“And you, my love, how are you feeling?” His face softened, and a crooked smirk curled one side of his mouth up. He is so fucking hot.
“Perfectly ecstatic. I don’t think I could possibly feel better or be happier than I am right now.” My eyes lingered on his beautiful smile.
“I’m going to set up things downstairs.”
“You don’t want to be up here? You could help me cook.” I winked at him before stirring the food bubbling on the stovetop.
“I think I’m better off downstairs right now. We have everything we need, but I’ll make sure we have plenty of soda pop and water in the refrigerator so it’s cold by the time our friends arrive. I also need to get the tables set up.”
“You’re right. We’ll be eating down there anyway, and then head in to the movie theater to watch the slideshow.”
“Exactly.”
“Let me know if you need me to do anything or need any help.”
“You, baby doll, will not be lifting or moving anything. Connor is coming by soon and he’ll be helping.”
“Fine. I’ll be down, though, a little later. I need to get the crock pots set up on the counter.”
The doorbell rang, and Jeff left the kitchen to answer it. It was Connor. Connor gave me my hug hello, then the two of them disappeared down the basement stairs.
I washed the five crock pots, filled them with the food to be kept warm, then took each of them down to the bar counter. The ribs, lasagna, and the sausage and peppers, would be kept warm in the chafing pans. Abby walked up and down the stairs behind me each trip.
Mom was bringing by two apple pies. Apple pie was my weakness. I could eat one whole pie all by myself. As I set the final pan in place, I could hear the faint sound of the doorbell. I ran up the stairs, Abby close behind me on my heels. We both walked to the front door, me gasping for air, Abby mocking me with her breathing. I couldn’t help laughing as I opened the door.
“Oh my god, you’re early.” Jackie had arrived before anyone else, even before my mother. “What is the world coming to?” As she entered the house, Hunter walked in behind her.
“I figured I’d surprise you today.” Jackie smiled and pushed past me.
“Hey Hunter, good to see you again.” I gave him a quick hug.
“Hey beautiful, good to see you, too.” Hunter was gorgeous. I was surprised he wasn’t with someone when he arrived.
“Jeff and Connor are downstairs.”
“I figured I’d come by early to see if you needed help with anything,” Jackie said. “You didn’t answer your phone.”
“Yeah, it’s buried in my purse. You can come keep me company, but I have everything done, for the most part.”
“So how was Hawaii?”
“Freaking awesome,” I sang out. Just the mention of the honeymoon had me flashing back.
“I hope you took a lot of pictures.”
“We took a ton of pictures. We’re going to show them later. You have to make a promise to yourself, Jackie, you have to go to Hawaii.”
“Have to?”
“Absolutely, have to.”
“I’ll put it on my wish list.”
“Put it on your must-do list, seriously.”
We continued to talk and were joined by everyone else trickling in. Jeff, Connor, and Hunter all came upstairs to join the crowd that had formed in the kitchen. We were waiting for Mom and Jim to arrive before we all went downstairs.
I gasped in a deep breath as Jeff walked toward me. “What’s wrong?” he whispered in my ear.
“I forgot to put out the plates and eating utensils downstairs.” I felt so agitated and whispered into his chest, “Shit.” I went to stand up, but he held me in place.
“You can thank Connor for doing that. Everything is set downstairs. We dug my two old folding tables out of the storage area and set them up, too.” He leaned in and kissed my temple.
The doorbell rang and made me jump. “Relax, baby. I’ll get it.” Jeff walked to the front door. I was mesmerized by him. I wondered if I’d ever get tired of staring at him.
Never.
Abby ran to the door behind him and screamed when Jeff opened it. “Nana!”
“Hi, Abby. Hi, Jeff, good to see you.” Mom’s voice was warm. I watched as Jeff welcomed them in. He gave Mom a hug and shook Jim’s hand.
We encouraged everyone to go downstairs, then told them to feel free to help themselves to the food. Jeff and Connor each had a drink in hand within minutes of going in the basement, and Jeff made Jim a drink, as well. I noticed Jeff and the guys had gathered together, while all of the women had gathered around me. Abby was perched on my hip. I was being bombarded with questions about the honeymoon, just as we had anticipated.
“We have a lot of pictures we’re going to show you all on the movie theater screen in a bit. After we eat.”
“I can’t wait.”
“Where all did you go?” Georgia asked.
“We spent three days on the Big Island, then we went to Kauai for three days and our last three days were in Maui. We went back to the big island for the final day before flying home.”
“That sounds so amazing,” Candace said.
“Yeah, it was.” I sighed. “But Mom knows, she went to Hawaii for her honeymoon with Jim.”
That was a great way to redirect some of the attention. I wasn’t the only one who had been to Hawaii, and they had been to Oahu and Lanai. I let her tell them her stories while I got some food.
“I see your appetite is back; that’s a good thing,” Mandy said. She heaped some lasagna on her plate.
“Oh my gosh, Mandy. I ate like a freaking horse in Hawaii.” I searched for Abby and saw she was still working on her food; her plate was sitting on one of the tables. She was having a good time wandering around talking to everyone.
“Do you think you guys will go back anytime soon?”
“Maybe in a couple years. I loved it, but I’d like to go to the Caribbean next trip.”
“You’ll like that.”
“Hey, why didn’t Creighton come with you today?”
“Creighton and I.” She swallowed, “we are, um … taking a break from each other right now.”
“Oh, no! What happened?”
“It’s a long story, for another day. I’m not talking about it now.”
“Do you think you’ll get back together?”
“Maybe, I don’t know.” She wiped her napkin at the corner of her eye to dab up the tear before it fell. “Maybe this is it.”
“Oh, sweetie.” I gave her a hug.
“Don’t say anything; no one knows yet.”
“My lips are sealed. I won’t say anything.”
“Today is your day; we can talk during the week.”
Jeff
I interrupted all the conversations and let everyone know that, when they were ready, we were set to show the pictures in the movie theater. Nikki grabbed Abby and wiped her fingers off. Then she made sure the lids were on all the dishes so the food would stay warm.
She was the last one to enter the movie theater. Abby was sitting next to Nikki’s mom and Jim. I dimmed the lights, and we began showing the pictures. After I took a seat in the back, I pulled Nikki down onto my lap. Her arms snaked around my neck and her head laid on my shoulder. God, I loved her touch.
She had put the presentation together to show only one hundred of the over three hundred pictures we took. There was so much talking as the pictures changed. The helicopter aerial shots, waterfall, and volcano pictures garnered the most reaction.
The final slide displayed a blank screen. That caught me by surprise because I thought the slides were finished. Then a pair of pink booties flew
in on the screen, followed by the word ‘or’ and then a pair of blue booties appeared. Everyone was really quiet.
Without warning, her mom gasped. Jackie stood up and turned to look at both of us. “Are you kidding?”
I helped Nikki stand so I could get up and turn on the lights. I pulled Nikki’s hand into mine, then pulled her closer to me. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder, cleared my throat, and announced, “Yes, we’re expecting a baby.”
We all left the theater, and the basement was abuzz with questions about the baby. Everyone congratulated us both. They were all surprised to learn Nikki was almost four months along.
“Did you hear that, Abby? Mommy is going to have a new baby.” Nikki’s mom said. She seemed very disturbed by the announcement. I couldn’t tell if it was because we had just gotten married or because we kept it from her.
Chapter 12
I convinced Mom to come with me to my next doctor’s appointment. Jeff was going to be out of town, and I needed to understand what was bothering her now. Jeff and I both had noticed her agitation at the party.
I was lucky enough to get the first appointment of the day. I didn’t want to miss much time from work, especially after my two-week vacation for the honeymoon and the few days off before the wedding.
After dropping Abby off at day care, I drove to Mom’s house to pick her up and decided to just jump in feet first to get to the root of what was bugging her. She took a seat in the car and held her lips tightly pursed, as if she’d sucked on lemons all morning.
“Good morning, Mom.”
“Good morning, dear.” Her words were abrupt.
“What’s wrong? Is something bothering you?”
“Oh, no, it’s nothing.”
Fucking lies. She thinks I don’t know she’s pissed about something? “No, Mom, I think something is bothering you. It was on Saturday, too. I could tell. I think we should talk about it.”
“Well, if we must.” She avoided looking at me and stared out the side window. I hated playing this game with her.
“Yes, we must.”
