Whipped Crème 4
Mommy Mine: Finale
Ryo dropped into the booth with a relieved sigh. He noted his new cell phone blinking. "Leon," He looked at the displayed number. "He must have called when they were transferring the numbers. Wonder what he wanted." Ryo pushed the button to redial the pet shop. As Ryo spoke into his phone Dee ordered for them both. Rain noted that Dee did not even ask Ryo, but he knew that whatever arrived would be exactly what Ryo wanted. Rain smiled and pulled his Journal from his pocket and began to scribble words on the page. He looked up to see the waitress waiting for him to make his order.
"Chicken sandwich, fried please, a baked potato with everything…and steamed vegetables. A large 7 Up and… Do I get dessert now or…?" Rain waited for the waitress to stop staring at him.
"For such a little thing you have a healthy appetite. I envy you. I wish I had been able to eat whatever I wanted at your age and retain my figure." The waitress was laughing as she moved on to Bikky. Her eyes widened as she took in his dark skin, light blond hair and deep blue eyes.
"Hey dad," Bikky said with a grin as he got Ryo's attention. "She noticed that HE eats like a horse now." Bikky laughed when he saw the waitress' eyes travel over Rain once more. This time her disbelief and envy turned to wonder. "Whatever Lord D is feeding him keep it up." Rain said nothing. He lightly elbowed Bikky as he shoved his journal back in his pocket.
"Dee, Leon called to tell me that as they were putting Jewel down for a nap Randolph showed up with questions. He seems to think the…" Ryo paused and gave a meaningful look at Rain who was busy laughing with Bikky. "He thinks there is a connection to the shop."
"He thinks everything he can't solve is connected to the shop." Dee muttered allowing his hand to travel across the bench to curl around Ryo. Ryo turned a slight shade darker when he felt Dee's fingers slip through the hair at the nape of his neck. Rain noted the simple yet abundant affection and he grinned going back to his journal.
"What are you always writing in there?" Bikky asked trying to peer over Rain's arm.
"Bikky, Andy suggested that if Rain felt overwhelmed by emotions he should keep them in a journal." Ryo said trying to avoid Dee's touch. Dee caught the meaning and moved away. "It's rude to ask him to tell you what he thinks… all the time."
"This is not that journal." Rain indicated another pocket of his large pants. "This is the one I write poetry in." Rain handed the journal over and Bikky gasped when he saw the sketch of Julie Summers on a page. "I am almost as good as you are." Rain admitted thinking of the portraits that Bikky had given as Christmas gifts.
"But you've got one up on me." Bikky admitted as their food arrived. Lyo clapped his hands in glee at the array of chicken fingers, fries and fresh fruit. Ryo smiled at Dee as he was handed a fresh Caesar salad with grilled chicken strips over it in an edible bread bowl. Bikky continued to laugh as he dove into his bacon cheeseburger. "I couldn't sing to save my life." Rain was laughing as he took his journal back shoving it in his pocket.
Break
So happy. Randolph sat alone in the restaurant after he left the pet shop. He saw the family sitting down to have lunch. Watching as Detective Laytner randomly brushed his hands through Ryo's honey colored hair. He saw how Ryo colored and moved into the slight touch. Randolph wanted to go over and wrench Dee away from Ryo. Why should he have all that to himself? Randolph stared as Ryo laughed as Dee's fingers found the ticklish spot behind his knee. He saw the lips curve up. The lush lips that Dee kissed every chance he got. The lips Randolph could almost taste. He had sat with his binoculars the previous night watching as those lips emitted cries of joy. That, Randolph thought. That was what he longed for. The sound of Ryo's voice in the throes of passion. From the tree he had heard muffled groans, but not like he had wanted to.
Those lips. Ryo had bitten his lips as he clung to Dee sweaty and shattered panting and trembling a beautiful display of a fallen angel as he had sprawled upon the bed. He had canted his hips as Dee left his body to lie beside him… smiling… Content. Randolph wanted to kill him. Why should Dee have all that to himself?
Break"Bikky, Rain," The boys looked up from the plates of pie at the serious tone in Ryo's voice. "Dee and I have been thinking."
"Dee thinks?" Bikky quipped laughing when Dee cuffed him in the head. "What? I thought all you did was eat and try to screw Ryo."
"Yes well sometimes he thinks about other things." Ryo said glad to see Rain smiling.
"Hey you," Dee frowned at Ryo.
"Hey yourself," Ryo's lashes lowered as he hid the heat behind his eyes thinking of the night before.
"If you two are done flirting," Rain said a giggle escaping.
Ryo's blush darkened and he cleared his throat. "Well, Bikky you are fourteen now and Rain you will be fourteen in a matter of days and well. We thought that since you now have phones and can call us at anytime. You will be allowed to be out until seven on Weekdays excluding extracurricular activities. On weekends eight. Nine thirty if you are together."
"Nine thirty it is, he ain't going nowhere without me." Bikky said going back to his pie. "Thanks Ryo… Dee, I mean Dads." Bikky grinned Rain simply nodded his head agreeing that he would not want to venture too far without his brother. Ryo reached across the table to lift Bikky's face until their eyes met. "Yes?"
"I expect you both to act with responsibility and integrity."
"We'll make you proud." Rain promised."
"You already do," Dee said glancing at his watch. "Now come on, we still have some shopping to do. You boys run along and find some friends to hang with for a few hours. Here," Dee reached into his wallet. He extracted two separate wads of cash to give each boy. "There's extra dessert tonight if you take Lyo with you."
"Dee! They have both had enough sugar today to…" Ryo's words ended as Dee kissed him soundly.
"Be at the car in two hours, Rain you have rehearsal at three." Dee said as Bikky pulled them from the restaurant in the mall. Lyo clapped happily as Bikky undid the straps of his booster seat. Dee stood to pay the bill watching as their boys ran off.
Rain was laughing as Bikky looked over Cell phone accessories. He saw Dee pull a resisting Ryo into Spencer's. He nudged Bikky who outright laughed when Ryo's blush could be seen from so far away.
BreakLaton sat alone as he thought of Zarro's orders. Was the feline finally succumbing to madness? Laton frowned as he stretched back into his sleek scaled form. Bright red and black was highlighted by the azure sky as he took off for the peaks of his castle. It was the best place in the world to think. Crisp air so fresh it hurt to breathe it in and a view that stung the eyes with its beauty. Leave his wife behind in favor of another… Laton sighed, here, he thought, was the first time he would ever think to defy the great white lion.
Images of his grandson came to him unbidden. Ryo sitting with Dee. Ryo with the boys and finally he saw Hon. Laton remembered how she had stood before them in full flame regalia denouncing her betrothed. Leaving the great hall in a flurry of fury and flames. Scorch marks had been the only sign of her passing through. He had never found her again. Lost she had been. Lost in the world of men. He saw her again as Ryo had last seen her. An image he had stolen from his grandson's mind. He saw his beloved daughter riddled with bullets surprise etched on her lovely features making her a grotesque parody of the woman she had been.
"I will not lose you both." Laton vowed spreading his wings wide. He found Zarro lounging in the grand garden with Queen Victoria. Laton came to a skidding halt he fanned his wings to send the dust away from the royal pair. "I understand your majesty?" Laton dipped into a full bow leaving his neck and horns exposed before his sovereign. "I will not force history to repeat itself by asking my grandson to make a choice I myself can not adhere to."
Zarro stretched his lips across his large teeth bringing a massive paw to wipe the luxurious mane from his brow. Victoria leaned against her husband with a satisfied purr. Laton bowed further before he released his wings and took to the sky. A beautiful living flame in the bright Arcadian afternoon sun.
BreakAlicia wandered the halls of the large house with a sad smile. She admired the lifestyle that Ryo and Dee shared with their boys. The home was well taken care of, clean and beautifully decorated. She found a room that was obviously Lyo's. Alicia sniffled when she saw the shelf full of books some of them favorites by the look of the tattered edges. Coloring books, teddy bears, toys, all neatly arranged as if Ryo cleaned his room often. No dust littered the floor, as Alicia thought of it, she had found no dust anywhere in the house.
She looked over her shoulder and gasped. A large hand drawn portrait hung over a toy chest. Lyo sat in Ryo's lap while Dee looked on. The two other boys were happily engaged in listening as Ryo read from a book. The only signature was B. M. It looked more like inner city tag work than a signed name. Alicia could guess at the artist. With tears she sat on Lyo's bed curled over onto her side. She lay there sobbing until exhaustion took her in its deep embrace.
BreakDee wanted to laugh. Ryo was so cute with his red cheeks as they saw some of the more daring items for sale. "Dee," Ryo asked not having seen any of the items that Dee had left for Count D and Leon as a Christmas gift the previous year. "Do we need any thing for sale here?" Dee frowned wondering what Ryo was asking but not saying. "Are you not…" Ryo looked away from Dee blinking rapidly. "Are you dissatisfied? Is there something I am not doing? Do we need these things?"
"What… Ryo, baby, no…" Dee moved quickly to take Ryo into his arms. "You are more than sexy enough to keep me happy. That is not what this is about." Dee tried to explain. He felt relief when Ryo relaxed in his arms. He could still see the confusion on Ryo's face. "I just wanted to try a few new things that's all. I love making you feel good." Ryo gasped when Dee's hand traveled to his hard, well-toned tummy. "Besides, I was here picking up lube a few days ago and I saw that," Dee pointed to a pair of small scarlet satin shorts with a matching robe edged in black lace. "I imagined you in it and well, remember when I came home all sweaty and dragged you to bed?" Ryo's eyes widened and he audibly gulped as he did indeed remember Dee's almost wild possession.
"You want me to wear that?" Ryo asked fingering the lacy material.
"Would you?" Dee asked heat filling his gaze. Ryo blushed saying nothing as he began to walk around the store. Dee knew he was thinking, even as he looked at the vibrators and massive Dildos. He saw Ryo shudder. "What's wrong?" Dee came to his side looking at the offending article.
"Double X," Ryo whispered looking away. "The leader wanted to…" Ryo inhaled sharply causing Dee to pull him away from the oversized appendage. "I know that is not what you want, but I can not help but feel that something that is not you would be a violation of my body. I love you Dee, I am sorry, but…"
"Whoa… Whoa," Dee took Ryo's arms in a gentle hold. "Listen to me Randy Ryo MacLean." Dee placed a hand under Ryo's chin and lifted until the smaller man was forced to look into his eyes. "I love you too. I don't want you to think that I came here to buy something that would make you feel that way. Flavored lube, sexy lingerie and maybe a few toys that is all. And I am not the only one purchasing here, if you see something you like I am all the way there baby."
"All right," Ryo tried not to think of the large dildos on display. The clerk behind the counter pretended that he did not notice the couple. He could tell that the honey haired one was shy. But wow, the clerk thought, he sure was gorgeous.
"He makes a man think about switching teams," The clerk said aloud causing another customer to comment.
"He sure as hell did." The man shook his head and left the shop. Randolph looked at the red ensemble and shivered. He would love to see Ryo in that.
"Find anything?" Dee sidled up to Ryo startling him. Ryo looked to see the small basket that Dee had. It was filled with various items that caused Ryo to raise his brows. "I'll show them to you later, I might even share." Dee promised holding his basket away from Ryo.
"I'll wear that," Ryo hedged taking his bottom lip between his teeth. "If you… wear this." Dee looked around wondering what Ryo meant. He then looked into his lover's hands and gasped. Ryo snapped the thong before dropping it into the basket. "Shouldn't we be getting to the car?" Dee was quick to search through the rack finding the proper size for Ryo before heading to the counter to pay for their items. Ryo was blushing as they left the store. He was sure that everyone would be staring at them and know what they had purchased.
BreakBikky smirked as he saw Ryo and Dee approach the car carrying bags with the Spencer's logo on them. Ryo was red faced and could not look directly into Bikky's eyes. Dee's looked at the large bags that both boys held. "Roller-blades," Rain explained. "Bikky said he would teach me how."
"I needed a new pair," Bikky shrugged. "I mean Chris knows how to skate man." Bikky thought of their younger friend with a fond smile
"Chris lives in a magical pet shop," Rain muttered with a scowl at Rain.
"One of your father's is an arcadia eastern dragon prince." Bikky returned Rain inhaled as if to speak then nodded his agreement.
"We are all totally weird huh?" Rain said helping Ryo to put their things in the trunk while Dee and Bikky strapped Lyo into his car seat. Ryo shut the hood laughing. He paused when he saw a small woman standing nearby. She had dark brown hair and deep green eyes. She was watching Dee shut the car door with Lyo inside. Bikky was just getting into the car but paused to see what everyone was staring at.
"I…" She began, took a halting step forward and stopped. "I tried to stay away. I told myself it would do no good, but… Life is so short. I could be gone tomorrow and you would never know." She began to sob. "I was home alone when my brother's best friend…" She shook her head. "On my fifteenth birthday I found out that I was pregnant. I was scared. I did not know what to do… I… I always found it funny that your name is Dee Laytner, you see." She approached Dee still crying, afraid that he would reject her. So silent he stood with his family his face a mask of coolness. "On the day you were born… I named you Dillon."
