*THank-you for the reviews on the last chapter. THey were greatly appreciated. THank-you all so much*
"So what do you want to do today?" I ask Dean as we are lying in bed. "This is your last day off before you return back to work.
"I don't know," he says, "but I have an idea of what I want to do right now. Do you hear that?"
"The silence?" I ask with a smile as I trace his chest with my finger. "I hear it. Avery and Alex are still in their milk comas from 4 this morning. They ate so much so their bellies are full their diapers may be too but they are still sleeping."
"I know," he says with a smile as his fingertips trace my caramel skin. "Maybe they decided to give Mama and Daddy some time alone."
"Maybe," I say with a smile as I wrap my arms around his neck bringing myself closer to him as I feel his arms wrap around my waist. "I'm not so tired anymore," I say with a smile. Over the last couple weeks the babies have finally gotten their schedules synchronized and they have determined that sleep is done at night with an occasional feeding here and there with a couple naps during the day but they have given us a lot more opportunity to sleep.
"Me either," he says with a smile before he kisses my lips softly and passionately. "I need you so much, Tay," he whispers against my lips before he kisses them again.
"I need you too, Baby," I say against his lips. It's been a long time since we have been intimate and while the boys are sleeping I want to take the advantage to be with my lover.
"Is that right," he says with a smile as he rolls me over onto my back and towers over me. His blue eyes meet my dark brown eyes as he flashes me a sexy smile.
"Yeah," I say with a smile as I rub his chest and abs softly. "I love you, Baby."
"I love you too," he says before he leans down and kisses my lips softly. "Are you sure you're ready to do this?" he asks.
"I'm more than ready," I say, "the doctor said it was okay and said we could resume sexual activity when we were ready. I'm ready," I say with a smile.
"Okay," he says with a smile as he spreads my legs gently and I feel his erection on my inner thigh as he leans down to give me another passionate kiss as I run my fingers through his blonde curly hair. I moan against his lips and tug at his hair as I feel him slide his erection into me slowly and softly taking his time as he does it so I am comfortable. I have heard stories that the first time you have sex after having a baby it's not very comfortable. I hope it's not true and as he works his way into me I feel nothing but pleasure and the need to have more of him in me. "Tay," he breathes as he deepens himself inside of me.
"Dean," I moan out as I feel all of him inside of me as he starts to rock his body, his lips finding my neck and my lips on his as he works himself in and out of me. Nothing fast but soft and passionate, loving and slow sliding himself in and then back out, then back in again going as deep as he can go. "Baby," I say as he picks up his movements and I rock my hips with him. The sensation is better and more pleasurable than pre-pregnancy.
"Are you okay?" he whispers in my ear.
"Yes, Baby," I say as I move with him.
"I love you," he says in my ear as he continues his movements filling me with passion and ecstasy causing me to moan and cry in pleasure with each soft movement he makes.
"Baby," I moan out as I feel the passion building up and feeling the pleasure of his movements taking me to new heights as I find myself on the verge of my climax. "Dean," I say as I feel my body start to shake and quiver as the length of his erection pulls out and slides back in. I can't control myself anymore as I dig my toes into the mattress, my nails into his back and my teeth into his neck as I find my hot release. I fall apart around his erection crying out in pleasure. "Dean, Baby, I Love you," I breathe as he continues his movements, his breaths deepening, the moans escaping his lips as he moves.
I feel his erection throbbing and growing larger as he slides into me one last time, his body quivers, he groans out before crying out in pleasure, "TAYLA!" he says as he finds his hot release deep inside of me. "Oh, Baby," he says in my ear before he softly nibbles on it. "That was amazing."
"I know," I say as I hold onto him not wanting to let him go as he keeps himself inside of me. "I love you," I say as I play with his curls.
"I love you too, that was well worth the wait."
"I couldn't agree more," I say with a smile before his lips catch mine for a passionate kiss. "They're still sleeping," I say with a smile. "We can go again if you want to."
"You don't even have to ask," he says as his lips find mine again.
Our kiss is interrupted by one of the babies crying. "I guess we won't be going again," I say with a little bit of disappointment. Dean groans as he removes himself from me before he rolls over onto his back. I don't want to get up either as we lay there for a couple minutes before we both get up and clean ourselves up before we tend to our sons.
Later that morning after the boys have been fed, changed and dressed I get myself dressed while Dean keeps the boys occupied in the living room by playing with them. "Oh no here he comes! Here comes Babyzilla!" he says as I stop in the doorway of the living room to watch him with the boys. "Boom, boom, boom," he says as he starts having Avery knock down couch cushions. "Babyzilla is on the loose," he says as he makes Avery cause destruction making me laugh. "Here he comes Alexander, here comes Babyzilla! Oh no!" he says as he knocks down another couch cushion. "He's angry!" he says as I laugh to myself at how cute it is.
"What are you doing?" I ask as I walk into the living room.
"Playing Babyzilla," he says with a smile as he holds Avery and I pick up Alexander. "They like it and I think Alex may have cracked a smile."
"I think he did too," I say with a smile of my own. "You're going to miss them aren't you?"
"Yes," he says. "I don't know how my day is going to go without holding my little boys. It's going to be hard but I know they'll be here when I get back and I'm ready to take them on a dinosaur adventure."
"Oh dinosaurs now?" I ask.
"Yeah," he says with a smile. "I love these guys," he says, "and I love you too," He says before he kisses my lips softly.
"I love you too," I say, "so my dad said it shouldn't be long and that my divorce should be final by the beginning of December, still want to get married on New Year's Eve or New Year's Day?"
"New Year's Day," he says with a smile. "This is what I was thinking."
"I'm listening," I say as I rub Alex's small hand with my thumb as I kiss the top of his velvet soft hair.
"How about we get married right after midnight on New Year's Day? Don't you think that's a great way to kick off the new year together by becoming husband and wife?"
"I like it," I say with a smile. "I really like it and the babies will most likely sleep through it. That's a good idea. Right as the new year hits at midnight we could start the wedding procession and be married shortly after midnight. I can't think of a better way to start my new year other than becoming your wife."
"So it's a plan," he says with a smile. "You will be Mrs. Ambrose on the first of the year. Nothing big; I just want something small for our close family and friends."
"Sounds good to me, I want something simple. It doesn't have to be a big extravaganza."
"All right," he says with a smile before he kisses my lips softly. "I love you."
"I love you too," I say with a smile before we start to play with the boys. "Do you want to take them to the beach?"
"Isn't it a little cold for the beach?"
"It's 74 degrees I'm not saying let's put them in the ocean but let's just take them to the beach and take them for a walk. Let's give them a change of scenery."
"All right," he says, "do you want to go to the beach Avery? What's that? You do? Okay," he says, "Avery wants to go to the beach."
"So does Alex," I say with a smile, "Let's get them ready to go, I'll pack the diaper bag. Is the stroller in the car?"
"Yeah," he says.
"Perfect," I say as I give him Alex while I go to pack up the diaper bag so we can spend the afternoon at the beach but apparently there are other plans for us as our doorbell rings. I walk downstairs to the front door as Dean is getting the boys ready to go to answer the door. I freeze when I see Roman standing at the door with Renee. He has a lot of nerve coming to my house with Renee. "What do you want?" I ask.
"I was in town. We wanted to talk to my parents and we figured we would stop in here to see the babies."
"Why?" I ask.
"I just want to see them," he says. "You've met Renee haven't you?"
"Hello, Renee," I say with a friendly smile. "How are you?"
"Good," she says, "how are you?"
"Good," I say, "we were actually getting ready to go to the beach with the boys."
"Oh really?" asks Roman.
"Yes, Really," I say.
"Well, can we see the babies?"
"I guess," I say. I do find it weird that my soon to be ex-husband and his girlfriend are walking into my house to see my babies with another man. It's not like Roman and I stuck to our friends bargain if we had this might be a different story but we didn't so he really doesn't have a right to be here. "Dean," I say as we make our way to the living room. "Roman and Renee came to visit the babies. Isn't that sweet of them?" I ask.
"Why?" he asks as he stands up holding Alex while Avery is in the swing.
"I just wanted to see them," says Roman, "you do know I still have rights to them."
"No," I say, "you don't. Dean is their father. It has been proven but you would know that had you come to the paternity results. I told you."
"I knew they weren't mine," he says.
"Then why did you keep dragging it out, Roman?" I ask as I walk over to Dean as he immediately wraps his arm around my shoulders.
"I don't' know," he says wrapping his arm around Renee. "They're cute," he says with a smile. "They look like Tayla. They look exactly like her," he says as he looks at Avery in the swing and then at Alex.
"Thank-you," I say, "I happen to think they have a few of Dean's features."
"I don't know," he says, "did you hear our news?"
"That you're having a baby?" I ask.
"Yeah," he says with a smile. "We were looking at some houses in the neighborhood because we decided we wanted to live up here."
"That's cool," I say, "and congratulations. When are you due?"
"May," she says with a smile. "I can't wait."
"That's great," I say, "I'm happy for you. You two can sit down," I say as I point to the couch.
"Thanks," says Roman, "so how have you two been? How is life with twins?"
"It's good," I say, "I mean it's hectic but we've gotten used to it. We love them and they're fun."
"I bet," says Roman, "what are their names again?"
"This little guy," I say taking him from Dean, "is Alexander Dean but we call him Alex for short. And that little guy in the swing is Avery James."
"Oh," he says. "Their names are cute. They're cute," he says, "can I hold one of them?"
Dean and I look at each other and we are just as confused as the other as to what Roman is trying to do. "Sure," I say as I hand him Alex.
"Hey, there, Buddy," he says with a smile as he holds him. "I'm Roman," he says, "I'm friends with your mama and daddy. You're so handsome. Yes you are. You're handsome just like your mama is pretty," he says with a smile causing me to smile. "Tay, they are adorable. How do you tell them apart?"
"Alex has a birth mark under his chin and Avery doesn't. That's how I tell them apart not to mention that Alex is a bit chubbier than Avery. It took a couple weeks but we finally figured out a way to tell them apart."
"That's cool."
"So you were talking about looking for houses in the neighborhood?" asks Dean as I sit on his lap as he wraps his arm around my waist. I can see Roman's eyes go straight toward Dean's hand as my arm finds its way around Dean's neck.
"Yes," he says.
"Did you find any?" asks Dean as I can still see Roman's eyes on his hand as he is rubbing my upper thigh softly.
"We actually found one around the corner from here. We put an offer on the house so I hope it gets accepted. It's a nice house and it's so close to yours not to mention to my parents' house." I feel Dean's grip tighten around my waist at the news.
"Why would you want to live around the corner from us?" I ask.
"I don't know. I thought we could be friends. I mean Dean and I work together. We should be civil and get along."
"But out of all the houses in Pensacola that are for sale you have to put an offer on the house around the corner. Are you trying to pull something? And I'm still trying to figure out why you're here."
"I just wanted something close to mom and pops," he says as he plays with Alexander, "and I want to raise my kids in Pensacola."
"Right," I say as I look at him and I know he's doing it out of spite. I thought that after everything he would let go. "So Dean and I are getting married on January 1st."
I see the shocked look on Roman's face when I tell him the news. I am not sure he knows what to say but I want him to know that Dean and I will be married as soon as possible. "That's a bit fast isn't it?" he asks as Renee places her hand on his thigh.
"Dean and I have been together for almost a year. I don't think it's a bit too fast. I think it's perfect. I know I love him and I'm ready to marry him."
"Well," he says, "congratulations."
"Thanks," I say, "my dad said our divorce should be finalized by the beginning of December."
"I heard," he says. "Do you think we can be friends again and be civilized?"
"Roman," I say, "I have been trying to be your friend. I was trying to be your friend but then you started getting ridiculous talking about how the boys were yours and dragging out the divorce. You made it ugly. I didn't. It was you. We could have been friends had you not started acting like an asshole. How do I know you're not going to be an asshole again?"
"Because I won't be," he says, "I'm happy with Renee and we're having a baby. I thought that our baby could be friends with your babies. I just want to make this as civil as possible. I am sorry for the way I acted but can we just look past it and be friends?"
"Roman, I'm not sure. There is just too much that has happened between us for me to just say let's be friends. I saw a whole new side of you. I don't know how I feel about us being friends."
"You can think about it though right?"
"I guess," I say, "but I think that my mind is made up. I'm pretty sure that I don't want to be friends. I just want to go my way and you go your way. If I see you on the street if you get that house then I'll say hi to you but I don't want to act like I like you when I don't."
"So you don't like me anymore?" asks Roman.
"Not anymore. I don't like the person you became. I don't' like the person that I saw come out because you were jealous. Now because you're with Renee and having a baby with her you act like everything is going to be okay. You act like I'm just going to bend over backwards for you and just act like nothing happened. A lot of things you did during our divorce hurt. A lot of things that you said hurt but I think the worst was when you caused me to miscarry one of the babies. That was the worst thing. You know how I am. You know every pregnancy I have had was high risk but you did not care that day we were in mediation. You turned into an asshole, maybe you were always an asshole I don't' know but I saw someone I did not like and I'm not going to be friends with you," I say as I get up and take Alex from him. "I think it's time that you leave."
"That's kind of rude," says Renee.
"Rude?" I ask, "rude is coming to MY house unannounced trying to be friends with me after all the hurtful things he's done over the divorce. He's your problem now, Renee. I hope that he doesn't put the amount of stress on you that he did on me when I was pregnant. I hope that he doesn't find a ring rat to sleep with behind your back and I hope I really hope that if you ever think about adoption you don't use a woman named Vanessa for an adoption counselor. Maybe Roman changed I don't know but I'm just warning you now. He has one person in his mind and that's Roman. He will go lengths to hurt you and then act like sex can make it up. I don't care about your relationship but don't come to my house calling me rude because I ask you to leave because I can see his bullshit shining through and you have NO idea what happened or why we even got to this point. I would appreciate it if you both left." I hand Alex to Dean as Renee and Roman stand up I stand up with them to walk them to the front door.
"You act like this divorce was my fault," says Roman, "but you are just at as much fault as me. Who is the one that got pregnant by another man? Maybe I wouldn't have had to cheat on you if you weren't such a whiney, condescending bitch, Tayla. You did this you brought everything I ever did to you on yourself."
"Get out," I say, "and don't come back here again," I say.
"You don't have to worry about me," says Roman, "the sooner this divorce is final the better."
"My thoughts exactly," I say. "Now get out," I say walking them to the door. I slam the door behind them once they walk out the door. I walk into the living room where Dean is getting the boys ready so that we can enjoy the rest of the day at the beach as a family. "He has a lot of nerve," I say putting Avery into his car seat. "Who does he think he is?" I ask as Dean puts Alex into the car seat.
"I don't know," he says, "but he better not come here again and why does he have to live around the corner from us. And what made him think everything was okay that you would be friends with him?"
"I don't know," I say, "but I don't want him to ruin our day together. You're going back out on the road tomorrow and I want to enjoy my last few hours with you and the boys as a family having fun. I never want any negativity around them. Let's go to the beach and spend the day together as a family."
"All right, Baby," he says as he kisses my lips softly. "I love you."
"I love you too," I say with a smile as we each grab one of the car seats to take out to the car. My bad mood slowly fades away when we get to Pensacola Beach; a place I have always loved. I still love it and to bring my sons to the beach makes me extremely happy. Dean, Alex and Avery and I spend the afternoon walking along the beach, taking in the beautiful scenery around us and I think about how much my life has deserved to be like this for a long time. My life can't get any more perfect than it is right now. I have two of the handsomest boys in the world, one sexy husband to be and I am happy. Nothing can destroy mine and Dean's happiness; we're one happy family.
