So this came to me tonight while I was at work you can probes guess what I do for a living and what I did tonight... parts of this story are true. But please be nice and awesome and review.
&
Such beautiful girls they have. Today, I was asked via a note on the fridge, "Can you do some ironing today? Need some shirts –Jane."
Already having picked up their "youngest" we tidied up the kitchen and she practiced piano while I made her some lunch. "Amelia would you like to watch Beauty and the Beast later? We can pick it up from my house when we go to pick up your sister" I asked their "youngest".
Jane and Maura are the best bosses I've ever had and the fact their sexualities correspond with mine, I find that I have someone I can talk to about it that understands, but also they give me hope because they are the ultimate power couple ever I am definitely envious of their relationship. When they were ready to Maura got pregnant they used one of Maura's eggs and one of Jane's and the same donor, they were and well still are so happy that both eggs took and now they have these beautiful twins. They've had other nanny's before but I've been working for them for the last year and a half. They honestly are amazing bosses, and because I'm a student who happens to be working on getting my necessary degrees to work with children with autism and other special needs, they have been so helpful. And on top of paying me an awesome salary and me occasionally using my boss the walking Google, to help with my homework, they said that they'd help me through school as long as I maintain a certain GPA it's like having a scholarship but with way more relaxed rules.
Alessandra, was the first born, and was clearly from Jane's egg, she has beautiful dark brown hair with light brown eyes that seem to darken a little more the older she got. She had adopted much of Jane's personality and attitude, but was the sweetest little girl always wanting affection and willing to give it as well. She like Jane though did have a tendency to bottle things up but for the tiniest thing made her explode.
Amelia, is their youngest clearly Maura's, she has very short but still beautiful blond hair, with these amazing green eyes with a small hazel ring right around the pupil. She is so smart, and sweet. However when she was 2 they noticed that she wasn't talking and after much debate between the two of them they waited a little longer and tried their best to help her, they took her to the doctor and after what seemed like endless tests they were told their youngest has autism. Being the power couple they are they (and by they, I mostly mean Maura) did research into the therapies and treatments and now, at 10 Lia is mostly caught up, she's in a lower grade than Alessandra and they do go to a private school that is technically an arts school but has a strong emphasis on those with different learning abilities, but in some aspects she's 10 but there are still a few areas she functions at a about an age 6-8.
Anyways back to today.
"Yes I really want to watch Beauty and the Beast it's my favorite movie, I saw it in 3D it was really cool"
So knowing that I'd be able to keep an eye on at least one of them I decided that I would Iron after dinner while watching the movie like I usually did when having to perform that particular task.
So while dinner was baking in the oven I got everything I'd need for my task set up and once Lia and I finished cleaning up and Alex was done her piano the two of them sat on the couch while I stood behind ironing.
Halfway through the movie Alex's friend from next door called and I let her go play over at her friend's house while I, now finished ironing, sat and watched the rest of the movie with Lia watching her face light up at certain parts and eyes dancing in the merriment during "Be our guest" and look as though she wanted to hide or cry when the beast gets attacked.
When it was over I was going over some questions from the movie to check her comprehension and see how she related to it when she turned to me and said "This movie reminds me of my family" while we were cleaning up the blankets and stuffies she had watching with her. Curious to know how it reminded her of her family but blatantly surprised she had managed to see links between the movie and her life I asked her how.
"Well mommy, she's like Belle because she's pretty and she lived in France and she's polite and stuff like Belle and she helps the beast out like mommy does."
"Sweetie I don't understand what you mean by she helps the beast out like mommy does, can you explain that please?"
"Well mommy helps the beast when he gets hurt" she says looking up at me like I'm the idiot for not knowing what she's talking about, "and mommy always helps mama she gets hurt" then her face turns confused when I couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Why are you laughing?" she asks me.
"You think mama's the beast?"
"Well not in the beginning when he's all mad and scary but like when they're telling him how to act before dinner or when they have the snowball fight, or when he gets hurt, he whines like mama does when mommy's telling her what to do so she can stop hurting, or when Nonna tells mama how to act. But the beast is like mama because he acts all mean and tough like mama but really he's really nice to Belle and the others like mama is with mommy and Nonna and stuff, and mama has crazy hair like the beast too, well and when mama gets really mad she yells like the beast does and looks all mad and crazy like him too"
After actually getting where she's coming from I ask "What about Mrs. Potts does she remind you of someone?"
"Yeah Mrs. Potts reminds me of Nonna, and chip is kind of like Uncle Frankie, and Lumière is like Uncle Barry, and..." she gets cut off
"How is lumière like Uncle Barry?"
"IT IS NOT NICE TO INTERUPT PEOPLE!" she says
"Sorry please can you tell me how Lumière is like Uncle Barry?"
"I forgive you, he's like uncle Barry because mama says that uncle Barry likes to think that he's smooth, and not like the feeling smooth but mama says that is means to speak easily with someone you want to date, and that he's kind of girl crazy with his girlfriend, kind of like lumière is with Babette the maid. And Uncle Vince is like Cogsworth because he and Uncle Barry bicker all the time, and Cogsworth is kind of fat like Uncle Vince."
"Lia you know that it's not nice to say that about people, remember what mommy told you about calling people fat? That it hurts some people's feelings"
"Oh no... I'm sorry... did I hurt Uncle Vince's feelings?"
"No no sweetie you didn't but you shouldn't talk about people's weights I'm just reminding you okay?"
"Okay"
"Can you explain to me why Uncle Frankie reminds you of Chip?"
"Well because he's Mrs. Potts's son like uncle Frankie is Nonna's son and mama says that Uncle Frankie is a mama's boy."
"What about Gaston? Does he remind you of anyone?"
"Well umm, now that I think about it he kind of reminds me of mama's doctor, Dr. Slucky."
Again doing all that I can to stifle and contain my laughter, proved to be really difficult and my body was shaking as it all came out. And curious to see where or if I fit into this at all I asked "What about me? Do I remind you of anyone in Beauty and the beast?"
She looked at me and pondered a moment, her face crinkling up for a second "no not really, but Jo reminds me of the barking footstool but that's only because the footstool turns into a dog at the end and Jo's a dog."
"What about Alex?"
"No I meant this movie reminds me of all the adults in my family, and you and Alex are not adults."
"I'm an adult"
"Yeah but you're more fun than all the other adults you're more like me and Alex than you are like Mommy and Mama and everybody."
As our conversation was coming to a close and we were finishing the ice cream I had gotten after we cleaned up the TV room. I sent her and Alex who had gotten home just in time for ice cream to get cleaned up and ready for bed. After reading a story and tucking them in I made my way back to the kitchen to grab a drink then into the living room to do some homework while waiting for Beauty and the Beast to get home, who I knew wouldn't be home until some undetermined amount of time as they'd called at dinner saying that they were about to leave but now seemed to be on their way to a crime scene.
After about two hours of homework later, I decided that it was going to be one of those nights where I was too tired to drive home so I made my way to my room changed into PJ's and grabbed my notebook to write down how the characters reminded Lia of certain family members and why.
I must have fallen asleep on the couch while writing the comparisons out because I was woken up by a gentle and sweet voice while her hand rubbed my really cold arm "Honey wake up," I slowly opened my eyes and rubbed them while sitting up. When my vision had returned to normal I saw Maura on my left and Jane looking rather pissed off on my right. I wasn't sure what was wrong it's not like it was the first time I'd fallen asleep on the couch, it wasn't a big deal last time but Jane looked pissed.
Turning to her about to apologize for falling asleep she spoke before I got the chance to.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? She said shaking my notebook.
"My notebook, can I have it back please?" I answered matter of factually and then in a small voice asked the latter part.
"Care to explain why you seem to have this wonderful and beautiful description of why my wife as Belle of Beauty and the Beast, then below it you have me listed as the beast and other family members of our family compared to it as well? Like WHAT THE FUCK SERENA?"
"I... Well...you see...umm...Maura make her stop yelling at me?" I begged knowing that I myself am a lot like Maura but also knowing how intense intimidation has a tendency to great that bond between my amygdale and my lachrymal gland.
"Jane remember what happened the last time you were like this and came home? You hardly even said anything to the poor girl, and what you did say wasn't even mean but you know she's a little bit sensitive, and honestly she's the best nanny we've had you need to calm down go get a beer and come back and speak calmly." Maura reprimanded "Oh and can you please get me a glass of red wine?"
When Jane returned she handed Maura her wine and passed me a bottle of water, while settling back on my right side, Maura was still sitting in the same spot on my left with her arm wrapped around me and rubbing my arm calming me down from the near panic attack I'd almost had and thankfully was without tears this time. "Serena can you please explain why you have these comparisons written out" Maura asked in a calming voice.
"well Jane left me a note that asked me to iron some of her shirts and so Lia and I were watching Beauty and the beast while I was ironing like I was asked after dinner while Alex was over at Taya's, and after the movie was over, I was checking her comprehension and stuff and then while we were cleaning up she said that the movie reminded her of her family. Then she told me and after tucking them in and doing my homework I decided to write it down and this" pointing to the notebook now in my lap "is more or less what she said reminded her of each character to each family member. I thought it was funny, well actually hysterical when she first said that Jane reminded her of the beast; hold on give me a second to remember it. Ok this is how it happened 'life I asked her how.
"Well mommy, she's like Belle because she's pretty and she lived in France and she's polite and stuff like Belle and she helps the beast out like mommy does."
"Sweetie I don't understand what you mean by she helps the beast out like mommy does, can you explain that please?"
"Well mommy helps the beast when he gets hurt" she says looking up at me like I'm the idiot for not knowing what she's talking about, "and mommy always helps mama she gets hurt" then her face turns confused when I couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Why are you laughing?" she asks me.
"You think mama's the beast?"
"Well not in the beginning when he's all mad and scary but like when they're telling him how to act before dinner or when they have the snowball fight, or when he gets hurt, he whines like mama does when mommy's telling her what to do so she can stop hurting, or when Nonna tells mama how to act. But the beast is like mama because he acts all mean and tough like mama but really he's really nice to Belle and the others like mama is with mommy and Nonna and stuff, and mama has crazy hair like the beast too, well and when mama gets really mad she yells like the beast does and looks all mad and crazy like him too"' it was so funny I couldn't stop laughing." Turning to away from Maura who was shaking with laughter beside me to look at Jane, "I'm sorry it was just soooooooooooo funny, I thought that you ought to know"
"Ha ha very funny. I'm sorry I yelled at you."
"No worries," I said laughing still trying to calm down "thought maybe you guys might want to share this with Jodi."
"You're right we probably should share this with her" Maura said calming down and wiping the tears that had fallen from laughing so hard away.
We sat there for a few more minutes while they read over the rest of the comparisons chuckling now and then while drinking their drinks.
We talked about our days, mine with the girls and my homework, and theirs with what they were allowed to tell me, which they often tell me basically the whole thing and sometimes I get to look at their case files. When Jane suddenly turned to me looking very pale.
"What did you do with my shirts after you ironed the?"
"I put them in your closet like I always do why?"
"Oh um you didn't let the girls in our room did you? You didn't see anything either did you?"
"No they did not and yes I did, but honestly Jane it's not like it's the first or hell even the tenth time I've seen that particular treasure chest."
"What are you guys talking about?" Maura asked confused
"Do you remember what we did last night and this morning and how tired we were so we opted to deal with it later?"
"Maur, Jane is apparently embarrassed because you guys left your sex toy chest out and opened again, and I saw it whilst putting her shirts in the closet."
"Thank you Serena, Jane honey I really don't know why you're embarrassed the three of us are all aware of what's in there and what each item is used for and how. We already know that she participates in the same kind of alternative lifestyle that we do."
"Well yeah but still" Jane whined
"Jane if it makes you feel better the one particular item you left on the bed is very quite similar to the one my ex has, except hers was ribbed on the outside, well she had that one too, but the ribbed one was way better."
"Really?" Maura cut off
"Oh yeah it feels much better and the orgasm is more intense, and my ex used to get multi's when she'd be too sensitive but I'd slowly pull out and just rub the ribbed shaft along her clit,"
"What do you mean multi's?"
"Multiple orgasms"
"Oooh maybe I'll look into that tomorrow"
"Oh you definitely should Maura; you wouldn't believe how much of a difference it can make it makes"
"Umm hello you two does it not bother either of you what you're discussing and with who you're discussing it with?"
"Jane no I really don't mind discussion sexual intercourse with our nanny"
"Nah it doesn't really bother me either, it's not like I have many people to talk to about this anyways, after what happened when I was outed. And besides whom better to talk to about sex than a doctor?"
"It's not like she's a lady doctor, or sex therapist kind of doctor she's a dead person doctor and I really doubt the dead are concerned about their sex lives, not to mention she's your employer"
"I really have to disagree with parts of what you've said Jane, this doctor is in fact the very epitome of the definition of a lady, and though I understand that what you mean and no she's not but you've said it yourself that her guess is better than most doctors, and also you've said that she's a walking Google, and I find it difficult to view you two as my bosses you are more like family, to me anyways. Oh and also I happen to know that you two are the two best moms anyone could have, I wish mine were as awesome as either of you. And lastly how often does one nanny who happens to be a lesbian get employed by THE lesbian power couple of Boston? Why the hell wouldn't I talk to well at least Maura about sex?"
"Thank you, Serena that's very sweet of you to say we think of you as family too. Besides Jane, it's not as if she's asking or that we're speaking directly about our sex-life"
"It's just weird!" Jane whined "But I suppose you are right about many of your points and you are family and my Ma's already told you to call her Nonna enough times to prove that you're not going anywhere."
"Aww thanks Jane, but I should really get to I mean it is after 1 am and I'm really tired I should probably call Dylan too."
"Do you have classes in the morning?"
"No I actually get tomorrow off but I'm guessing that from what you've told me you'd like me to take the girls to school cause you'll either be sleeping or at work already?"
"Would you mind?"
"Not at all, I'd be passing by it anyways even if it is earlier than I'd prefer to get up, but at least I'll get to sleep some more if I can go to Dylan's"
"Who's Dylan I don't recall you talking about a Dylan in the past?"
"Oh, Dylan's this girl I've been hanging out with lately, I met her at the hospital, well it's not really hanging out so much as it is snuggling in bed sleeping, reading, or watching movies, well or talking. She's really nice; she's studying to be a paediatric surgeon. I met her at the coffee shop last month when I had to take Alex to the ER cause of that allergic reaction."
"Oh, you sound sweet on her."
"What the hell does that even mean Maura?"
"That you like her it's typical from the early to mid 1900's"
"Yeah okay whatever yes I like her a lot she's amazing. I've noticed that I've started doing some of that sappy shit that you two do to each other"
"What's that supposed to mean" Jane asked with a mildly offended look
"Well we stare at each other and it only seems like a few seconds but it's been like a few minutes, and the gentle touches and when we're at school on Tuesdays and Thursdays I buy her coffee and wait outside her first class cause mine ends like 20 minutes before hers and we hang out till our next classes and then she'll buy me lunch or coffee and wait outside my class and last week she brought me flowers that she picked and coffee."
"Oh so that's where those flowers came from"
"What the big bad detective couldn't figure out that someone gave me flowers?"
"No I figured as much but Maura wouldn't let me pry. When are you inviting her over, oh how about Sunday? Gnocchi night, you know how much you love Sunday family dinners around here."
"Well yeah I do but I don't know if I'm ready to meet my big crazy surrogate family of cops and death dissector just yet, although she did really like Alex."
"Oh come on, it's one dinner what's the worst that can happen?"
"Well let's see, Tommy could come in here heard Nonna say he was coming to town this weekend, hmm speaking of Nonna you remember what happened last time I brought someone here to meet you two and the girls and she was here? She wouldn't stop talking about marriage and great grandchildren that wouldn't be biologically or legally hers, the next day Lizzie dumped me. I haven't even had sex with this girl yet."
"How long have you been seeing her?"
"3-5 times a day 4-5 days a week for a month give or take?"
"And you haven't had sex yet? What's so special about this one? Is she making you wait?"
"no I am actually she's different I've loved others in the past but I've never been in love before and this feels like I'm in love, all the feelings I feel for her are way more intense, so no we haven't had sex yet, we've kissed... like a lot... and it's like legit there's fireworks and it makes my knees week."
"So uhh what's her last name? Where does she work?"
"so uhh nice try Jane if you want to find that out go use your mad skills I'm not telling you till I'm ready for you guys especially you Jane to meet her"
"What why especially me?"
"Well because you are just like Nonna when it comes to me and girls sometimes especially the ones I really like."
"Yeah but I haven't scared any of them off like ma has have I?"
"Well technically but you have scared a couple of them. I'm going to bed night" I said collecting my things and heading to my room.
