Love For My Best Friend Sister: The Next Stage of Our Lives
It's almost like it all happened in slow motion, they must have known we were coming how else would they have been able to ambush us. I watched as a bomb went off right in front of him, he got thrown back and when I run over to him he was unconscious and had no the left arm. I looked around panicky to see what was going on around me; I could see other men from my team being dragged way by some team members. I heard a chopper sound; I looked up into the sky to see two rescue choppers for our team coming for us. I looked in front of me to see Stevie standing there; he said "We have to go." I nodded my head and replied with "We have to carry him; he is out of it and needs medically help for his arm." Steve said "Okay, we just have to move now!" I nodded my head, I wrapped his arm around my shoulder and with Steve's help I was able to pick him up from the ground and the two of us carried him together over to where the choppers were going to land. I was praying he was okay, hoping he was going to be okay, I had told them all I would protect him and now look at him.
Memories of that day come into my head, I looked over at Toby to see him looking out the window thinking; I wish I had walked on that bomb not him. It was amazing to believe it had been four years since I joined the army long with Toby. After 6 months of brutally training Toby and I had been put into the same platoon and Stevie was able to get changed into it, he had to do the training with us but he was okay with that; he always said you couldn't be to prepare to face what was out there. When training had finished we all return to our homes which for us was in Rosewood, I had gotten to see Melissa after so much time away it was great; there was only so much a letter could say. To finally have her in my arms was the best, to sleep in the same bed as her was unbelievable and it was only 6 months.
After being home for three months we all got the call saying we were need, Melissa was upset that I had to go for who knew how long for but she knew this was something I had to do; and now we were returning for the first time in four years. Toby and I had only done two tours, the first one had taken two years but as soon as we got back to the base we had been called out for another one which had taken another two years. Melissa and I hadn't seen each other for four months, we wrote to each other but I really missed seeing her. So after having to abought the mission I decided it was time to be discharged from the army and go home to my family. Toby sadly couldn't continue but I knew he was missing his family and the real world so he would have retired from the army as well. Steve was just looking for something new in his life being that he had been in the army since he left high school at the age 18 and his now 25 so I could understand wanting to leave. He had no idea what he was going to do but he had told us that Rosewood was now his home and he wanted to live there forever.
We were all still wearing our army gear since there wasn't much time when weren't on patrol or needing to be in it. We had our professional uniforms in our bags and we wearing what we would on patrol, though not all the heavy stuff. It was a simple dark green tight polo shirt; our dog tags around our necks, dark green with brown as well pants and our black boots. That was the stand uniform for patrol though you also had to have on a jacket, helmet and bag but we had to leave the helmet and bags behind and it was too hot to wear our jackets today. We also had these bullet proof vests that we actually did get to keep, which I was grateful for. I only had two but they had messages to people here in case something happened.
It was now near the start of April which meant summer was over and kids were all back in school including college kids.
I was brought out of thoughts by Steve asking "Are you nervous?"
I replied with "Yeah, I mean we've been writing to each other but that doesn't mean she still wants me."
Toby said "Don't be stupid, she's never returned the ring so you'll be fine."
I smiled and replied with "Thanks Tobs, how's the arm?"
Toby answered with "A little sore but I was lucky since some of our platoon didn't return," some of our platoon members weren't lucky or fortunate enough to return home. Everyone in my platoon treated me with a respect and treated me like one of them; I was going to miss every single one of them.
Steve said "That's right; I bet they are all going to be happy we all got honourable discharges from the army."
I replied with "Yeah Melissa will be thrilled, but you didn't have to."
Steve said "I know but I've been in the army most of my life, it's time to move on and see what else I can do."
Toby said "Pretty much anything, since we were honoured in the army."
I replied with "That is true, I just want to spend some time with my fiancée before I do anything else."
Toby and Steve looked at each other before saying "A'ww."
I laughed and said "Oh shut up, you two would be the exact same."
The bus driver then called out "Last stops Rosewood," we all looked out the window to see we were in Rosewood; outside the Apple Rose Grill to be exact. Toby stood up, followed by Stevie and I was shortly after them, we all thanked the bus driver as we got off.
We all stood on the footpath looking around with big smiles on our faces; I then said "It's good to be home."
Toby replied with "Certainly is."
Steve asked "What are we going to do first?"
I answered with "Well there's something I need to do by myself, what are you two going to do?"
Toby said "I'm going go home to see my parents and Jenna."
Steve said "Cool, I'll come with you and we'll meet you back here in say half an hour?"
I responded with "Sounds good, try avoid being seen though someone is bound to tell Melissa and I want it to be a surprise."
Toby replied with "Don't worry we will."
I smiled and said "I'll see two soon," they both nodded their heads and I started walking to the one place I need to go too before going anywhere else. I walked with my rock sack on my back, Melissa had bought me it for the first time I was home from base camp; she told me it would be easier to carry everything. Knew I should have gone home first but I need to see them before I did anything else, I just hope Melissa understood. I was grateful that the Apple Rose Grill wasn't that far from the Rosewood Cemetery because all I felt like doing was sleeping with Melissa in my arms. I walked over to where they were both buried, grass cover it now and there were flowers on either side of their head stones. I knew Melissa had placed them there, I had asked if she was able to do it for me and she was more than happy too. I sat down in between both of their head stones and just took some deep breaths.
When I was ready I said "Hey Dad, Mum," I was imaging everything Mum did after Dad died near happened and that's how it would always be. I heard Mums voice says "Yes we are very happy to see you have returned home."
I heard Dad reply with "Emmy, thank god. You got home safe, Melissa been telling us what you were up to and we were so worried about you."
I smile and say "I'm home for good."
Dad replied with "That's great Emmy; I never want you to be like me."
I said "I've always wanted to be like you Dad, but I've had four years in the army and it's time to come home; I have family I need to protect."
Dad said "That's my girl, we've watched over everyone hear for you."
I replied with "Thank-you that means a lot to me." Dad then said "What was it like out there Emmy?"
Mum said "Everyone will be so happy to see you home safe."
I answered with "I was terrified half the time but I had Toby on my right and Steve on my left so I was alright."
Dad replied with "I watched over you while training, you wanted to give up so many times."
I said "Yeah I did but I had to it, for you, for Melissa and myself." Mum said "That's our girl, we are very proud of you Emmy, but you have to go. It's time to go back to the people who are really here and not in your imagination."
Dad answered with "That's my girl."
I replied with "Okay Mum, I miss you two so much."
Dad said "We miss you as well Emmy, but you've came to terms with what's happened and now it's time to move on; don't forget but move on."
I replied with "Okay Dad, I love you both. I have to go; I can't wait to see Melissa." Mum added "Always and forever," I felt them both kiss me on my cheeks before telling me to go.
I felt them both smile at me proudly and Dad said "We will be watching over you all the time, we love you Emmy."
I was soon standing out the front of the Apple Rose Grill waiting for the other two to get here, I soon heard the sound of Toby's truck coming down the road and I looked up to see him driving down the road. When the truck pulled into the car park and I walked over to the window and saw it was actually Steve driving.
Steve said "Thought I'd bring this, though I have to drive since someone else can't."
I smiled and replied with "Alright," I threw my bag in the back of the truck where Steve's was too. I then held onto a bar type thing and pulled myself up, training had given me more upper strengthen and if it was possible maybe a 7 pack too. I sat on the dirty floor of the ruck but I didn't care I was used to it, when I was comfy I hit the side of the truck really loudly and Steve took that as a sign to started reserving and driving. It was fun sitting on the back of the truck and I swear Steve took the corners a lot faster and hard than he normally would. Which is probably why we pulled up to the house so quickly and damm did he stop fast, and he so did it on purpose. I looked at the house to see that no cars were in opening or on the side of the road; I could see my car under the carport where it had been sitting for three years. I looked across the road to see the DiLaurents house was for sale, Melissa had told me they were moving away for their Dads work and the girls were upset again but I didn't care too much if she was here when I got back or not.
I was knocked out of my thoughts by Steve's voice saying "You still alive back there."
I smiled and replied with "Yeah just, you should have gone faster."
Toby said "See I told you too go faster."
Steve replied with "Sorry I didn't think it would be a good look to get arrested on our first day home."
I say "He has a point," Toby nodded his head.
I asked "How did they take you losing your arm?"
Toby answered with "They were not happy but I think they were just happy that I was back for good."
I asked "Is Jenna pissed at me?"
Toby replied with "Maybe but I'll try to calm her down."
I replied with "Thanks."
Steve then said "Looks like no is home."
I nodded my head and replied with "It'll make the surprise better and I have key." I hopped out from the back of truck, Steve and I grabbed our bags and the three of us head up to the door. I unlocked the front door and the two followed me in, Toby closed the door and locked it again; we didn't want to give them a heart attack and think someone broke in. Steve went upstairs to put his bag in his room while checking if anyone was upstairs, while Toby and I continued to the rest of the house.
When in the kitchen I said "I'm just going to go put this out in the barn."
Toby replied with "Alright," I opened the kitchen door and walked out. I looked around and saw no one was in the backyard; I continued onto the barn and walked in to find it empty as well. After putting my bag down on the bed, I head back to the house and in the kitchen Steve and Toby were both there.
Steve said "Guess they're all out."
I replied with "Guess so, you boys hungry?"
Toby answered with "Starving," Steve nodded his head as well. I walked over to the fridge to find there was some chicken breast and some veggies so I thought I would try and make a stir fry. After taking out all the stuff, I found peter stash of beer and thought he won't mind. I grabbed three and hand one to the other two.
Toby asked "Dude can you open it for me?"
I replied with "Right, sorry it's going to take a while to get use to you not having an arm." Steve took his beer and opened it before handing it back to Toby.
Toby said "It's okay and cheers," he held out his beer and we clinked our bottles together before taking a swig each.
Steve said "Oh that's good beer," I nodded my head and Toby did as well.
Steve then asked "What you making?"
I replied with "Thought I'd try and make stir fry."
Toby said "Sounds good," neither of the two had changed and I hadn't either so it was pretty clear we had all been in the army. After washing may hands and the veggies, I start chopping up the meat on the chopping board that was already out.
Steve asked "Do you want a hand?"
I answered with "Sure can you find me the wok?" Steve nodded his head and went to it.
Toby asked "Anything I can do?"
I replied with "Supervise him looking for the bowl," Toby smiled and I was slap on the shoulder by Steve but it wasn't that hard. Once he found the wok he plugged it into the wall and turned it on high just so it could heat up quickly. When it was hot enough I tipped some oil into the wok and slid off from the chopping board the meat into the wok, I placed the wok lid on it and lowered the tempter to medium.
Steve asked "What next?"
I answered with "I need to clean the board and knife before chopping up the veggies."
Steve nodded and said "Do you need help with anything else."
I replied with "No I should be good from here, thanks though," I started cleaning the board and knife before drying it. I took two small swigs of my beer before starting cutting of the veggies.
Once everything was in the wok cooking I kept an eye on it while quickly cleaning up and finding three bowls, spoons and a bigger spoon to start stirring the stir fry around so it cook all over and didn't burn. I had finished stirring the stir fry around, I walked over to where my beer was and finished it all off. Just as I finished it off we heard the sound of the door opening, Steve and Toby looked at me, I way my hands for them to come over to me which they did and hid behind the bench.
We heard Hanna voice says "I swear that's Toby's truck out the front," we had to cover our mouth to stop from laughing.
Spencer replied with "No, it's just been a while since we've seen them and we miss them so we start thinking they are back but they aren't. Emily would have told Melissa and she would have told us," I felt a little guilt for not telling them I was coming home but I want it to be a surprise.
Aria asked "Do you guys smell something?" Damm food gave us away though we still stayed hidden.
We heard the sound of the feet walking toward the kitchen and Spencer shout out "Melissa! Are you home! Mum! Dad!"
Aria said "There cars weren't out front."
Spencer asked "Well who the hells been in here, cooking? And Hanna before you say it Goldilocks is not really," I was biting into my hand trying not to laugh.
Hanna replied with "How do you know, you ever seen her?"
Spencer said "No but there has to be a logical explanation."
Hanna replied with "Well go on explain the logic?" I could imagine Spencer was stunned not knowing how to explain it. I looked at the two to see if it was time and they nodded their heads, I held up five on my hand and we counted down.
When there were now fingers left we jumped up and said "Boo!" coursing all the three of the to scream and we laughed. When they calmed down the room was filled with squeals and them all running over to hug us all.
When they finished hugging all three of us, Spencer said "Oh my god, Toby what happened to your arm?"
Toby replied with "Long story short it got blown off."
Hanna said "See I told you it was his truck, but no one believes me." I walked over to the wok and started to stir the food around a bit and saw most of the meat was cook, I had taste of the veggies and they tasted cooked.
Aria asked "What did you cook Emily?"
I answered with "Stir Fry."
Aria replied with "Nice one."
I asked "You guys hungry?" It was only now I got the chance to take them all in Hanna had cut her hair short so it was just above her shoulder and had some black tips in it. She was wearing what looked like an Apple Rose Grill uniform which leads me to believe she work there now. Aria's hair was her normal length as it was before I left but she would have to had a few haircuts, she was holding what looked like textbook which made me think she was in college somewhere in the air; my guess was Hollis. Spencer hair was lighter than it was when we left which I didn't know how that happened but it really suited her, she didn't look like Melissa or her Mum anymore. And she too was also holding textbook that I knew had to be from Hollis since Melissa went there my guess was Spencer would go there too.
I hear Hanna say "Earth to Emily."
I replied with "Sorry I was just taking you all in; you've all changed in looks."
Aria said "We have but we are still the same."
I nodded and asked "What was your answer to food?"
Spencer answered with "We just came from the Grill so weren't hungry," I nodded my head and start dishing up food for Toby, Steve and I. I passed them both a bowl before sitting down next to Steve with my own bowl and we all starting eating, like we hadn't in months.
Spencer said "Wow, wow guys slow down, it's not going anywhere."
We all chewed and swallowed our mouthfuls and Steve replied "Sorry."
Toby replied with "Sorry."
I replied with "Sorry."
Steve added in "We haven't had a decent meal for a while."
Toby nodded and said "Yeah the last meal I had was hospital food."
Steve and I looked at him and said "We feel you brother," the three of us laughed.
Hanna asked "So what exactly happened to your arm?"
Steve replied with "It went boom," I nodded my head.
Aria asked "Is that why your home because of your arm?"
Toby swallowed his mouthful and answered with "Yeah, kind of. Should we tell them now or wait?"
Steve replied with "There's no harm in telling them."
Spencer asked "Tell us what?"
The other two looked at me and I smiled, before turning to them and saying "Affective admittedly Toby, Stevie and I are all honourable discharged from the army," all three girls squeal and clapped excitedly.
Steve said "We have been up close and personal with bombs but man you girls are loud."
I replied with "We had ear plugs in remember."
Steve said "Right forgot about that."
Hanna said "So none of you are going back?" we all shook our heads and went back to eating.
I then asked the question I've been dying to ask "When's Melissa getting home?" Both Toby and Steve made noise but a slap on the back of the head from me made them shut up.
Spencer answered with "She in school at the moment but if I texted her saying I need her home it's an emergency I'm sure she'll be home quick smart."
I replied with "Nah let it be, Stevie when you're finished can you go move Toby's truck away so she doesn't know we are here?"
Steve said "Sure, I'll go do it now. That Stir Fry was amazing; the guys are going to miss your cooking at base camp."
I replied with "I bet they will," Steve stood up and left to go move the truck.
Aria said "So you can cook now?"
I replied with "You pick up things quickly and I was the only girl in my unit, so somehow I become my job to feed the boys."
Hanna said "Melissa going to love you cooking for you," I nodded my head and a smirk appeared on my face. Steve came walking back into the kitchen not to soon after that and we all picked up conversation the girls were filling us in on most of the stuff we had missed, and we told them bits of our war stories but not too much detail; since we really couldn't.
We had sat around the kitchen talking for about two hours I think, we had been brought up to date on a lot things. Spencer and Aria were still dating and week-to-week at each other's parent houses. Hanna and Caleb had broken up but it was apparently mutual though Hanna didn't want to talk about it. Spencer was at Hollis studying Business and playing field hockey. Aria was also studying at Hollis but was studying English, History and Art; apparently in her last year at school she found a love for history. Hanna wasn't sure what she wanted to study, so she was just working at the Apple Rose Grill for the time being. Aria told us that Mike and Mona had broken up though they both still wanted to be together, but Mike would get jealous of all the guys at Hollis since he is still in High School and she in her first year of Hollis. Mona got sick of him being insecure and called things off, I felt for him and wanted to talk to both of them as soon as possible. The conversation went in all different way but stop when Spencer got a call from Melissa saying she was leaving school now and was coming home straight away; Spencer was able to act normal and like nothing was different.
I asked "How should we surprise her?"
Toby replied with "I thought you knew."
I said "Why would I know, I just want to surprise them all and I didn't know I had to do the thinking."
Steve said "It was your idea."
Hanna said "Calm down, surely between the six of us we can work it out," we all looked at each other trying to work out who would come up with the idea.
Spencer said "Why don't we just causally sit in the living room talking with Emily sitting on the chair facing towards the door and furthest from the door; since Melissa doesn't really care if you two are back, no offense."
Toby replied with "We get it."
Steve said "Totally and sounds like a good idea," I nodded my head agreeing it was a good idea. We all walked into the living room and took a seat, I took the seat that Spencer had told me to sit in and I felt my heart beat start beating faster. We were probably talking for about 10 minutes in there when we heard the sound of a car engine coming near and turning off, I felt myself smiling uncontrollable and I hadn't seen her yet. I felt myself stand up and move away from the chair and standing so I was in the line of the door but not close at all; my heart kind of took over my brain and we all waited watching the door.
I watch as the doorhandle turned and the door was pushed open, in she walked. I felt myself take a deep inhale of breath as she looked up from the floor and across to me. I smiled at she dropped everything that was in her hands which by the looks of it was textbooks, her bag and keys; her hands went up to her mouth and I saw tear starting to form in her eyes. I couldn't just stand there looking at her anymore; I sprinted straight over to her and she run towards me.
We met in the middle where she jumped up into my arms and I caught her, I felt her legs go around my waist as I held her up and she held onto me tightly. I placed my head in between her head and neck, I took a deep inhale on her scent and it was amazing. She had always sent her scent in her letters I didn't asked how but on those really tough days it what kept me going, I could feel and hear her doing the same thing.
I felt a few drops of my Melissa tears run down my neck and asked "Hey why are you crying?"
Melissa muffled responds was "Your home, you're finally home. I can actually breathe," I felt her hold onto me even tighter if that was possible.
I say "I'm here, I'm home and I'm not going anywhere." I felt Melissa pulling her head back so I pulled mine back as well to see a confused look on her face.
She then asked "What do you mean?"
I answered with "I am officially discharged from the army," she looked shocked and happy at the same time.
Melissa asked "Why?"
I replied with "It's time to be home for my family and start my future with my fiancée. So what do you say, you ready to start our future together?"
Melissa smiled and said "Thought you'd never ask," she leaned in and kissed me on my lips; I couldn't help but kiss her back.
I heard Spencer whisper "And it starts again," I smiled into the Melissa mouth as did she but we continued making out and I continued holding her up. This was our first kiss or making out session for four years and it felt amazing, it just felt amazing to have her in my arms again.
Sometime later we were interrupted by Steve's voice saying "As cute as this, we here too," Melissa pulled back out of the kiss and looked over into the rest of the living room to see everyone else sitting here. Melissa pecks me on the lips while she removes her legs from around my waist and I let her go. Both Toby and Stevie stood up from the couch they were sitting on and walked over to her, she hugged the two of them and I watch as her face turned sad at the look of Toby's arm; which wasn't there.
Melissa asked "What happened to your arm?"
Steve answered with "He sold it," Melissa turn to look at me to see if he was telling the truth but I shook my head.
Toby said "The short story is it got blown off," Melissa looked at me again for the truth and I nodded my head.
Melissa replied with "That sucks," Toby just nodded his head and went back to seat down as did Stevie and Melissa walked back over to me.
Melissa asked me "And your all in one piece?"
I replied with "Yep all in one piece."
Steve said "Well she might have grown something extra," he said jokingly serious.
Melissa asked "What does he mean?"
I answered with "Well I left with a six pack and well doing all the training and carrying of equipment I had to do there a chance I might I have a seven pack now." I saw the confusion on her face and instead of asking anything she just lifted my shirt and start looking and counting.
She then said "Defiantly gain another one babe and it's very sexy," Melissa looked up at me and I saw the look in her eyes.
I smirked and replied with "Really?" Melissa nodded her head and I saw her catch her bottom lip in her teeth, it was such a turn on to see her like this.
I asked "You wanted to take this somewhere else?" instead of answering me she grabbed a hold of the top of my shirt and took off running towards the kitchen but we were really running out towards the barn.
When we were finally able to open the barn door we walked in, we had kind of started to make out when we had left the kitchen and I kind of pinned her against the barn door and we made out there for a bit. Don't judge four years is a long sex drive especially when you're around guys for those four years; but we were finally inside the barn that was the main thing.
Melissa pulls out of the kiss and said "Just give me a couple of seconds to get ready," I nodded my head and watch her grab something from the cupboard before heading into the bathroom with a smirk on her face. As soon as the door closed I had my shirt already pulled up and off, I placed it down on the table that was in the barn. I walked over to the cupboard to find a pair of my shark shorts and exchanged wearing my pants for them. I left my bra on and walked back into the main part of the barn and made myself comfy on the bed. A few minutes later I heard the door open and Melissa walked out and into my view. I felt my jaw drop there my fiancée was standing in sexy black lingerie it was so simple but it's been a while since I've seen female skin.
I asked "Is that new?"
Melissa smiled and replied with "Yeah, after your first full year away the girls thought when you got back I should have surprise."
I asked "Spencer helped pick out this?"
Melissa grimaced and replied with "No babe, my little sister did not help me pick out sexy lingerie for my fiancée, her best friend."
I smiled and said "I thought so but you never know."
Melissa replied with "No, no that's just too wrong, Hanna and Aria helped." I smiled and started picturing them all helping each other picking out lingerie.
Melissa asked "Are you picturing?"
I answered with "Sorry baby, but for the last four years I've been surround by guys and no girls my imagination got very talented while I was way."
Melissa smiled and said "Don't worry babe its okay, as long as I'm in that imagination of yours I don't mind."
I replied with "Always baby."
Melissa asked "So why are you still imagining when the really thing is in front of you?" she had a massive smirk on her face and this sexy, playful glint in her eyes. I stood up from our bed and walked over to where she had been standing while we were talking. I think Melissa expected me to kiss her or something so when I picked her up and started carrying her over to the bed she must have surprised her. I gently place her lying down on the bed in the middle, laying her head down on the pillows. Once I was sure she was comfy, I straddled her waist and lay down on top of her.
We were now face to face and I said "Hey."
Melissa giggled and replied with "Hi, what'd you going to do now?"
I responded back with "Wouldn't you like to know," she nodded her head and I just smiled. I slowly leant down, I was going to take it slow and make it passionate just like the first time; but she didn't seem to want it that way. How did I know? Well her hands reached up and grabbed my neck pushing it down and smashed our lips together. She didn't want slow, she wanted to quick and needing sex and I was happy to take a part with either; but what Melissa wanted she got. I felt one of her hand start to tangle itself up in my hair while the other started to work on the straps of my bra. I brought my hand up from her sides and brought them up for one to cup her breast and for the other to go underneath her to start working on getting her bra off. We both managed to unhook each other bras at the same time; I sat back up and threw them both away before going back down and into our kissed. Having the feeling of breast on breast was a good feeling to have back; I had missed it a lot, well I had just planned missed Melissa.
I heard Melissa say through as kissing "To slow," to slow okay lets speed it up then I thought. I went from kissing her on the lips to starting to leaving a trail of kisser down her jaw, down her neck, down her chest and stopping for brief suck of the breast. After staying with her breasts for a few minutes, I started leaving kisses down the rest of her body, across her stomach, down her arms and anywhere else of her upper level but I soon came level with the place she really wanted the kisses. Without even having to remove her panties I could already smell the wetness mixed in with her scent and it was a pretty amazing smell. I looked up at her to see her watching me, using my eyes I silently asked for permission and with the nod of her head her panties came off very quickly. I leaned down and licked her slit which coursed her to moan, liking that sound and the feel of her hands in my hair desperately trying to get me to continue. I started looking for her clit with my tongue, when I had managed to find it I pulled it into my mouth and sucked on it for a while. I dropped it out of my mouth and went back to licking Melissa slit and trying to not touch her clit.
Melissa then begged out "Emily, please no teasing." Her voice was filled with want and need, who was I to ignore her of that need. I brought my hand up and straight away pushed three fingers into her, she musted expected it because she sat up a bit before falling back down and moaning at the pleasure she was getting. While pushing my finger in and out of her, I brought my head back down to where I found her clit before and sucked it up into my mouth again. Melissa hands were getting themselves tangled up in my hair again but I didn't mind too much, I just focused on the job at hand. I picked up the pace on fingering Melissa even adding another finger to the mix and started humming on Melissa's clit, Melissa wanted this to go fast then she was going to get off very quickly. As Melissa moans got louder, my fingers moved faster than they were already moving and my humming got even louder. I felt Melissa back arch off the bed and felt her realise, I pulled my finger and moved my mouth to where the juices were coming from and took them all in. Melissa dropped exhaustedly on the bed, after making sure I got everything and when I was sure I had I climbed up Melissa.
When we were face to face again her eyes were closed which made me smile, I asked "You alright baby?" she mumbled something out but I didn't catch.
I asked "Sorry what was that?"
Melissa replied with "All good, did you get better at that?" I just shrugged and she pulled me down to kiss and I was happy to kiss back and let her take control of the situation by flipping us both over.
I flopped down on the bed, we had been going at it for maybe two hours I wasn't really sure but it was dark outside; it was light when we came in.
Melissa said "Yep you defiantly got better."
I replied with "Your one to talk, giving me 3 orgasms in a row," out of the corner of my eye I saw a blush rise on her cheek and I couldn't help but giggle.
Melissa asked "What?"
I answered with "Nothing, you're a cutie," I reached out and picked up the hand that had the ring I have given her four years ago.
I said "You never took it off."
Melissa replied with "Nope and I never plan to either," I kissed the top of the ring and rolled back on top of her.
Melissa said "Really? You want to go at it again."
I replied with "No, it's just a better angle to look at you from," Melissa just smiled and peck my lips.
Melissa said "The room smells of sex, you and me."
I smiled and asked "Is that bad thing?"
Melissa replied with "No, I've missed it."
I replied with "Yeah me too, I've missed you."
Melissa said "I missed you too," I sat up and she came up with me. We had our lips wrapped around each other and I was sitting in her lap. I started to lightly make patterns on her left shoulder, nothing really just something to do with her by ourselves.
Melissa asked "Are you okay?"
I answered with "Yeah I'm all good," I smiled at her and she smiled back. We just there in silence enjoying being with each other, Melissa had her ear pressed up against my heart and I was still tracing patterns but had moved down onto her back.
I then said "Thank-you."
Melissa rose from listening to my heart and asked "What for?"
I answered with "Thank-you for letting me do the one thing I've always wanted do, join the army."
Melissa said "It's nothing really Em."
I replied with "You were amazing, not many people would let there fiancée go join the army where people die."
Melissa said "I knew that, but I also knew you need to get closure and going out there was were you were going to get it."
I smiled and replied with "Yeah, I went to see my parents when we got back."
Melissa asked "You did?"
I answered with "I knew I should have come here first but I need to see them before anything, being out there doing stuff he did has help a lot."
Melissa said "What about your Mum?"
I replied with "We had good times before anything so I'm going to remember her for that, I don't forgive her and I'm not going to forget I'm just going to move on."
Melissa smiled and said "That's great Emily."
I nodded and said "When we would go out on tours or walks with these padded vest on them and it's this army thing where you would write messages to love ones on the inside. One of the picture I had taken of you with me, I always stuck in on my vest where my heart would be and on the back was written my life; so that if anything happened they knew who I belonged to."
Melissa replied with "That's sweet, did you put anything on it for anyone else?"
I said "I wrote a few messages for Spencer, Aria, Hanna and other people I had been friends with while I was here."
Melissa asked "Did you get to keep them?"
I answered with "Yeah I did, they are in my bag."
Melissa asked "Can I see?"
I replied with "Maybe another time, right now I'm hungry but we should properly shower first."
Melissa nodded her head and said "Yeah sex is very tiring."
I replied with "You go get it ready, I'm just going to straighten the bed," she didn't ask any question I just moved off of her lap and she stood up and went to go start the shower. I stood up and went into auto mode of straightening the bed until Melissa called out it was ready; I stopped straightening it and went to shower with her.
About forty-five minutes later we had finished showering and getting dressed, we were just completing straightening the bed before heading to kitchen.
Melissa asked "Are you okay?" I placed a pillow down at the head of the bed and nodded my head and continue with the next pillow.
Melissa snatched the pillow out of my hands and said "Seriously Emily, what's wrong?" She managed to get me to sit down on the bed while she stood in front of me running her fingers through my hair.
I replied with "I saw so much out there," I saw Melissa get on her knees in front of me and looked into my eyes while I tried to avoid hers.
I say "I was right next to Toby as his arm got blown off, I watched as they shoot some of my platoon mates and Steve. I'm trying not to think of it because I want my first day back to be happy one but it's hard not to."
Melissa replied with "Emily it's fine, I know what happened out there isn't going to eraser itself from your memory. I know that the next few months or even years are going to be hard, I don't mind listening to what happened out there; I'll be able to handle it." I just nodded my head and she wrapped her arms around me and I fell into her, need the support and comfort right now.
Melissa pulled back and said "Now where's that smile I love and have missed so much?" I put the best smile on that I could but it probably looked like a grimace, like it was hurting to smile.
Melissa said "Nope that's not the one, never make that face again," she then picked up my hand and placed it on top of her boob.
Melissa said "Seriously? Still no smile okay let's try something else," she then leaned forward and kissed me on the lips and I couldn't help but smile when she moved away from my lips and start kissing me all over my face.
Melissa said "There we go."
I replied with "Thank-you."
Melissa said "Anytime. Now we better go or they might think one of us killed the other and are trying to work out what to do with the body," Melissa helped me stand back up and I followed her out of the barn and back across to the house.
We walked into kitchen to find everyone in there just talking, Mrs H and Mr H were also standing there; I saw Mrs H let out of breath as if seeing me again made her breath again. Aria was sitting on one of the stools with Spencer arms wrapped around her while they both tried cutting up veggies; it just look plan dangerous. Steve and Toby were sitting on the other two stools just sitting joining in on the conversation. Hanna was staying over flipping what looked like burgers, never thought I'd see her doing that but it was nice.
Mr H said "Took you two long enough to come out."
Melissa replied with "Sorry we would have come out sooner."
I couldn't help but cut her off with "Baby, we've already come out and they know," everyone laughed and I smiled.
Melissa turns around and said "A joke like that makes you smile but touching my boob doesn't? That makes no sense."
I replied with "You have a jumper, a t-shirt, a single and a bra on."
Melissa said "It's your jumper, t-shirt and single."
I replied with "I know that but you have so many layers on hard, to smile about that."
Melissa asked "So if I had taken it all off you would have smiled?"
I responded with "Yeah but it would have led to more and we would have never gotten out here."
Melissa said "Can't win," she now had a frown on with her lip all pouty.
I looked at the other and said "You might want to look away now," they all turned away and back to what they were doing. I quickly reach down to the bottom of my shirt and lift it over my head, I unclasped my bra grabbed both of Melissa hands and placed them on my boobs.
Soon a smile came on her face and said "Babe, did you forget, you're the boob one and I'm the ass one."
I smiled and said "I didn't forget but it's one thing to be shirtless with your parents in the same room and it's another thing to be bottomless."
We hear Spencer say "Keep your pants on," everyone kind of giggles.
I replied with "Don't worry Spence; she had enough ass for the time being."
I then said "Ow," Melissa had pinched both of my nipples at the same time which turned me on more than anything else.
Mr H said "We are happy you girls are back together, but Emily can you redress so the two that haven't seen you and talked to you yet can hug you."
I replied with "Sure Mr H," Melissa helped me put my bra back on as well as my shirt though she didn't look liked that very much.
When I was fully clothed I said "All done," they all turned back around to see we were both fully dressed but Melissa had her hand on my ass; always an ass girl. She had to remove it though when her parents walked over to me to hug me.
Mrs H said "Emily you know you can call us by our first name, especially since you're now engaged."
I replied with "It didn't happen when we started dating and it's not going to happen."
Mr H said "Okay but just know you don't have too," I nodded my head.
I asked "So what we got cooking?"
Mrs H answered with "Spencer called us telling there would be extra people for dinner, so we bought stuff for burgers."
I replied with "Awesome, need a hand?"
Mrs H said "No I think we've got everything under control," I nodded my head. Mrs and Mr H walked back over to where they were staying and Melissa hand found it to my ass again.
Hanna said "The boys were filling us in on what everything was like, when you weren't on patrol."
Stevie said "Yeah, we were telling them about Greg."
I smiled and replied with "Good old Greg."
Melissa asked "Who's Greg?"
Toby replied with "We became the four amigos, we pranked everyone in our platoon even each other."
Melissa said "Sounds fun."
I nodded my head and replied with "Yeah, in my platoon I was the only female and I wasn't fused sharing a tent or cabin or whatever as long as they kept their hands to themselves I was fine. Toby, Steve and I would always end up sharing wherever we went and the extra person was always different. When Greg came into our tent, we all clicked and became the four amigos. And we so kicked their asses at rock-soccer."
Toby said "Not my fault, my goal keeper was drunk."
I replied with "I was drunk and I wasn't even the goalie."
Mr H asked "You got drunk?"
I answered with "Don't worry; we weren't on duty for another day so it would have been out of our system before we had to have guns."
Steve said "Yeah, Emily and I got wasted the night before the other two chicken out."
Toby replied with "Again as I said the day after you two got the rest of the platoon drunk, at least two people need to be sober in case of emergencies."
I said "We could have held a gun."
Steve added "Yeah, we just wouldn't be able to see who to shot at," the three of us just cracked up laughing.
I say "The four amigos."
Spencer asked "Where's Greg?" The three of us looked at each other before looking up at the roof; Toby grabbed his dog tags and held his and Greg's.
Steve said "Greg didn't have any family, Emily and I decided that Toby should have them." Spencer and Aria put a hand on Steve shoulder, while Hanna went over to hug Toby and Melissa wrapped her arms around my waist and pecked the top of my shoulder.
I then said "I'm going to go set the table," I removed myself from Melissa arm and left to go set the table in the dining room.
Toby's P.O.V
We all watched as Emily removed herself from Melissa arm's and walked out of the room.
Melissa went to go follow her but Steve quickly said "Melissa, wait, let her be," there was this seriousness in his eyes and words that Melissa just sighed and stopped waling to follow where Emily had gone.
Aria asked "What was that?" Emily takes everything that happens with so many emotions and there had been so much death out there, I really wasn't sure how she would handle it and I hated that I had to focus on myself being okay before I could for her or Steve.
Steve answered with "Don't worry, with a little counselling she should be fine in theory."
Spencer asked "Counselling?"
Hanna asked "Why?"
I responded with "Its need, we see so much out there that it will be good to talk about it. Just don't take it the wrong way if Emily doesn't wanted to talk about all the bad sides of war, she'll talk about the good until her faces turns blue but the other stuff not so much."
Melissa asked "What do we do then?"
Mrs Hastings asked "What can we do to help her?"
Steve turned to me and said "You answer their question, I'm just going to go check on her," I smiled and thought so big brother of him to do that.
I responded back with "Okay," he stood up and left in the safe direction Emily had just a few minutes ago.
Hanna asked "How do we help?"
I answered with "If she starts talking about it, listen to her because there's a chance she won't open up for a long time."
Mr Hastings said "I think we can all do that, but is she seeing a professional?"
I replied with "Yeah, Steve and I are going to make sure she goes there; even if we have to sit out in the waiting room to make sure she actually does go in."
Hanna then said "The food is all cook."
Mrs Hastings said "Okay, everyone help carry something out and let's make it a lighter mood," we all nodded our heads and started grabbing stuff to take into the dining room.
Emily's P.O.V
I was going around the table giving everyone a knife; I hate how emotional I got over it all but I had been told by Steve that it was normal to feel like this. I looked up when I heard someone walk in, I was expecting Melissa but wasn't all that surprised when Steve walked in.
Steve asked "Do you need help?"
I answered with "I'm fine Steve."
Steve said "I didn't say anything."
I replied with "You didn't have too, I know you."
Steve said "They're all worried about you, I'm worried about you."
I replied with "I didn't mean to worry them; I just had to think in my head for a bit by myself."
Steve said "And I get that, so does Toby but they don't Melissa doesn't get it."
I answered with "I'll explain it to her later."
Steve replied with "Good, now do you need help?" I nodded my head and point for him to start placing plates around the table. We did a bit of talking about nothing really; I knew Steve was trying to cheer me up before the others came into the room so I wouldn't make the uncomfortable or anything like that. Though a smile was soon on my face when I saw Melissa walk into the room with a tray that had all the burgers on them, behind her was Aria and Spencer carrying a tray with veggies on them and behind those two was Hanna carry the buns for the burgers. I sat down in between Toby and Melissa, Hanna, Spencer, Aria and Steve sat the other side of the table and when Mr and Mrs H come in they would be at the two ends. Mrs H walked in carrying a wine bottle and four glasses, she placed a glass down in front of Aria, Hanna, Melissa and where she would be sitting. Mr H walked in carrying five beer bottles, he hand Toby, Spencer, Steve, myself and one down where he would be sitting.
I asked "Since when do you drink beer Spencer?"
Spencer answered with "I've become to like the taste," I nodded my head.
Toby said "Emily," he held his bottle out.
I say "Right, sorry," I take the bottle from his hand and crack open the lid for him and hand it back to him.
Toby replied with "Thank-you."
I smile and say "No problem Tobs," I felt Melissa place her hand on the top of my thigh and squeeze it. I looked to her and she mouthed 'I love you,' and of course I mouthed it back to her.
Mrs H had gone around filling wine glasses up, when she was finally sitting down she said "Eat up everyone." Not need to be asked twice I reached out to grab a veggie-patty, a burger bun and some salad for Melissa plate and did the same for mine but doubling it and a normal patty.
Melissa leaned over and said "Thanks babe," she kissed my cheek before turning to her food. I looked up to see a jealous look on Aria face and her glaring at Spencer, who soon took the hint and did what I had done for Melissa and I couldn't help but laugh.
Spencer asked "What's so funny?"
I answered with "Nothing, just good to be home," I finished making my burger and started to eat it. While eating, I kept my eyes open to both my sides on Melissa and Toby, I wanted to make sure they were both okay. The conversation soon went to anything really, it was really great at how relaxed everything was; I couldn't have asked for a better first day home.
Mr H then asked "Do you three know what you're going to do know that your back?"
Toby swallowed his mouthful and replied with "No clue, try looking for a job."
Steve said "Yeah look for a job, find what I wanted to do now that I'm out of the army."
Mr H said "If you boys wanted to come to do some temp stuff at our offices, we wouldn't mind. It would just be filing, taking out the rubbish and bad jobs like that."
Steve answered with "Thanks, will keep it in mind."
Mr H nodded and asked "What about you Emily?"
I looked at Melissa and replied with "Help Melissa plan the wedding."
Melissa smiled and said "I've recruited Hanna to help already, all you need to focus on is showing up, what you're going to wear and who's your bride party will be."
I replied with "Sounds easy enough, but I do want to help Melissa."
Melissa said "Okay you can help by staying out of the way."
I answered with "Alright baby, I get the picture but seriously just ask okay." Melissa nodded her head and leaned over to quickly peck me on the cheek before returning to her food.
Mr H asked "So you don't have anything planned for tomorrow?"
I replied with "No I don't, what to you need done?"
Mr H smiled and said "Any changes of you doing some work on the garden."
I replied with "Sure, Stevie would love to help me."
Through a mouthful of food Steve said "What?"
I say "Don't worry Mr H, I'll work on the garden for you tomorrow."
Mr H replied with "Thanks Emily."
I asked "What are you doing tomorrow baby?"
Melissa answered with "I have class all day."
I asked "Do you have a lunch break?"
Melissa replied with "From 12-1pm, why?"
I smiled and answered with "No reason."
Melissa asked "What are you planning?"
I replied with "Don't you worry."
Melissa said "I always worry more when you say that," I just smiled and went back to eating.
Toby asked "What are you girls up to tomorrow?"
Aria answered with "Spencer and I have classes in the afternoon, so we plan to sleep in all morning," she looked at both Steve and I.
Steve said "What?"
Spencer replied with "We don't want to be woken by you two."
Steve asked "Would we do that?"
Aria said "Yes."
I smile and say "You have my word we won't wake up, are you two up to running at 6 tomorrow?"
Toby replied with "Of course."
Steve said "Wouldn't miss it."
Melisa asked "Why so early?"
Toby answered with "We always run at 6," they all just nodded their heads.
Steve said "I always want to find a good gym."
I replied with "Count me in, will go looking Thursday?"
Steve said "Awesome, Toby you in?"
Toby said "Defiantly."
I asked "What time do you need to be at school baby?"
Melissa answered with "9, why?"
I said "Thought I'd drive you and pick you up."
Melissa said "I'd love that."
I replied with "Alright."
Toby asked "What are you doing tomorrow Hanna?"
Hanna answered with "I have to the all double shift tomorrow but luckily no classes," we all nodded our heads at Hanna and the conversation rolled onto different topics about nothing important; it was just really great to be home again. When we had all finished eating Toby decided it was time for him to go home so Steve was going to drive him home and drive back in the truck and keeping it overnight. I knew how much Toby hates relying on other people, as do I but he knew he had no choice in the matter and he was grateful we weren't making it a big deal. I couldn't help but laugh as soon as they had left; we all started doing the washing up; just like them to get out of it. When the washing up had been completed Aria and Spencer head upstairs to do who knows, Hanna had gone home halfway through the washing up I wanted to spend some time with the girls but their lives were busy so I wasn't sure when it would happen. Mr H and Mrs H had decided to they would go to bed, which left Melissa and I. We waited up for Steve to come home and when he was home we talked for a bit but Melissa yawned so I decided it was our bedtime and left Steve to do whatever he wanted to do.
