Chapter 50- Cabin Life

Here's a new chapter! I can't believe I'm at 50 chapters and still going! I never imagined it would be this long but I still have many more ideas so it will continue on for many more. It's a long one. Hope everyone enjoys :)

They got to the cabin and settled in for the night. Lauren nursed the twins while Jay made sure Mouse had everything he needed downstairs. He came back up and helped her with Jayla's inhaler before they settled the twins in their cribs for the night.

Once everyone was settled they went to bed. Jay pulled Lauren close softly kissing her forehead. "This is nice," she whispered glad to get away for a bit.

"It sure is. Mouse even said he'd keep the twins one night if we wanted to go out. There's this new restaurant opening in town I thought we could try," he smiled.

"Yea ok sounds fun," she smiled at him softly kissing his lips. She loved her babies, but she loved date night with her husband too.

They were both exhausted from the past few days events and they both fell sound asleep rather quickly. They slept all night. Since she'd been giving the twins some cereal with their milk they'd been sleeping longer and were finally sleeping through the night.

Mouse was up making breakfast the next morning when Jay woke. He tucked Lauren into bed and went to join his friend.

"Morning," Jay smiled pouring himself a cup of coffee.

"Morning," Mouse said flipping the bacon he was frying.

"Smells good. You didn't have to cook though," Jay said.

"I know. But I was up and wanted too," Mouse said giving him a grin. "Besides I figured you might be sleeping in," he said with a smirk.

Jay laughed ; "Na. She's out. She needs the rest after these last few stressful days."

Mouse nodded. Jay helped Mouse with the eggs until he heard Lauren. He went to check on her when he heard her in the bathroom.

"You ok?" he asked through the closed door. When he didn't get a response he tried the handle. Luckily she hadn't locked it. "Baby?" he asked kneeling down beside her.

"I'm ok. Just felt queasy," she said. She was kinda pale so he got a cold wash cloth and laid it on the back of her neck.

"Well we're just gonna take it easy today."

"I'm ok Jay I promise," she said settling back against him as he pulled her into his arms. She never got sick she just felt like she could. They both just assumed the stress was finally catching up with her.

Jay tucked her back into bed and went and got the twins. Jayden was fussing and Jayla was just starting to wake. "Good morning daddy's loves," he cooed picking them up and changing them.

Jayden fussed more until he took them to Lauren. He helped her get them fed and she was still kinda pale. Once the babies nursed he took them to their bouncy seats in the living room to play.

He went to the kitchen to fix Lauren some cheese grits. "What are you doing?" Mouse laughed as he dished up their breakfast.

"Lauren doesn't feel good so I'm gonna make her some cheese grits."

"Some what?" Mouse laughed watching him.

Jay laughed, "Chasse grits. Don't worry I had the same reaction when she first asked for them but they're not bad."

Mouse laughed, "Ok I'll take your word for it."

Jay took her the grits once he had them ready and Mouse ate in the living room with the babies. He'd turned Mackey Mouse on for them and they were just watching it totally enthralled. He couldn't help but laugh at them a little. They were priceless.

Jay joined him after making sure Lauren was fed and back and asleep.

"She ok?" Mouse asked.

"Yea. I guess all the stress just caught up with her. She's asleep now."

"Good, good. She needs the rest." Jay nodded his agreement as he ate. Once he was done, they cleaned up the kitchen and then played with the babies. They were trying to get them to roll over but the twins weren't having it. They finally gave up and just played with them.

Lauren had been watching from the doorway and thought it was just adorable. Two grown ex-military men were completely smitten with twin babies. She couldn't help but giggle a little.

Jay heard her and smiled. "What's so funny?" he asked.

"You two are adorable," she giggled.

"Oh really?" he smirked laying Jayla down. Lauren nodded and giggled some more. He was glad she was feeling better. He loved her laugh. He got up and stalked towards her with a twinkle in his eye. Lauren knew that look. She shrieked and took off running begging him not to tickle her as she laughed.

Jay chased her and caught her and they both laughed until they toppled over in the floor.

"Your parents are silly," Mouse cooed at the twins making them both laugh.

Jay had her pinned in the floor and was kissing her. Lauren was holding on tight kissing him back with everything she had. She loved him more than anything and wanted him to know it.

Mouse picked the twins up with a laugh. "Let's go down to the playroom. You'll like it," he cooed taking the babies so Jay and Lauren could have some time.

Lauren wrapped around Jay hearing Mouse go downstairs with the babies. She softly moaned into his kisses. "Jay….. please…." She softly moaned.

He slid his arms under her and scooped her up as she wrapped around him and carried her to the bedroom.

He laid her down peeling his shirt off her as he kissed. Lauren grabbed him and kissed him hard ridding him of his sweats and boxers. She grabbed him stroking him hard making him moan.

"Now," she demanded making him smile. He grabbed her hands pinning them to the bed as he thrust into her. Lauren arched up and moaned out feeling him deep in her.

"Damn baby," he moaned kissing on her neck as he thrust. It didn't take long and they were both coming hard. Lauren snuggled into him panting for breath not letting him go.

"I love you," she whispered.

"I love you too baby," he smiled against her neck. Once they'd caught their breath and come down, they went to shower together. After another mind blowing orgasm, they washed off and dressed.

Mouse had gotten the babies down and had fallen asleep with them. Jay and Lauren smiled seeing the twins asleep on Mouse. "He's so good to them," she whispered hugging Jay.

"I know," he smiled kissing the top of her head. They went up and curled up by their fireplace together softly making out. She could never get enough of him.

After an hour or so they could hear the twins. "Our babies call," she whispered. Jay nodded his forehead resting against hers. He helped her up and they went to get them. Lauren nursed them good and then they played with them.

"Mouse can you keep them tonight?" Jay asked.

"Of course," he smiled. "Just leave me bottles."

"There's a couple in there, but I'll add some more," Lauren smiled kissing the babies heads.

They played with the twins the rest of the afternoon and then Lauren went to get ready. She straightened her hair and put on a touch of makeup. She wore a red fitted dress that she'd just bought last week. She thought he'd like it.

When he walked into the bedroom to get his button up on he was left speechless.

Lauren smiled at him and blushed a little. "I can… uh… well... I can change if I need to," she whispered.

Jay shook his head no still taking her in.

"Jay?" she whispered finally getting him to look at her.

"Don't change. You are stunning," he said wrapping his arms around her.

"Thank you," she smiled her cheeks blushing.

Jay kissed her hard unable to stop himself. He completely took her breath away as her body just melted into him. When they both needed air they finally broke apart. She smiled up at him as they caught their breath. "I do wanna try the new restaurant," she whispered with a wink.

Jay laughed and slowly released her. "Then I guess we better go before I peel this off you and toss you on our bed," he winked.

Lauren blushed deeper as she swatted at him. "Jay Halstead you promised me a date," she smiled.

"You'll get your date I promise," he smiled kissing her again. Lauren softly moaned and it took all of Jay's willpower to break the kiss. He helped her into her jacket before he ripped her dress off.

"Let's go," he smiled reigning in his lust for her. Lauren could see it in his eyes. The dress was working its magic and she knew tonight she would be glad Mouse was below them with concreted block walls between them.

The new restaurant was amazing. The food was delicious and they had a great time out just the two of them. She teased him some making sure to keep his lust burning. As he was paying the waiter she ran her foot up the inside of his leg with a smile. It took all he had not to growl and carry her out of there caveman style.

When they got to his truck he pinned her to the door and kissed her hard. "Damn woman I need you so bad," he whispered biting her lower lip.

Lauren moaned running her fingers thru his hair. It was lightly snowing and freezing cold but she didn't care. "Take me home Jay," she whispered biting his ear.

Jay opened the door and tossed her up in there. He ran around and got in and they headed back to the cabin. He made sure to tease her right back on the way back to the cabin, and she was crazy with need for him too now.

When they got back Jay scooped her up and carried her straight to their room glad Mouse already had the twins downstairs. He closed and locked their door before setting her down. He stoked the fire as they both shed their jackets. Before she got anything else off he grabbed her hands stopping her.

She took her jewelry off and he pinned her to the wall kissing her. "You have teased me all night," he growled into her ear.

Lauren moaned arching her body against him. "I know," she panted.

"Mmmm I think you're gonna have to wait," he whispered pulling back some. Lauren whimpered pulling him closer. She needed him and needed him now. As payback he was gonna draw it out.

"Jay….. please," she moaned.

He smiled and softly kissed her lips before kissing down her neck. He kissed up and down and all over knowing it was her favorite. Lauren moaned and whimpered tugging at his hair.

"Please," she begged. Jay grinned up at her. He slowly peeled her dress off her body softly kissing new skin as he went. She was on fire. "Jay…. Jay…. Jay…." she moaned.

"Do you trust me?" he whispered. He always asked her that before he tried something new. Lauren nodded her head biting her lip as she watched him.

He picked her up and tossed her on the bed. He tied her hands to the bed as well as her feet which was new. She moaned just a little and he smiled. He kissed her hard before slipping a blindfold over her eyes.

"Jay….." she moaned.

"Just trust me," he whispered kissing below her ear.

He kissed up and down her body paying special attention to the areas he knew she loved. She moaned and pleaded with him but he just kept softly kissing. She felt him move away but still couldn't see him. She bit her lip listening.

"Jay?" she whispered.

"Yea love I'm here," he said which made her smile. He crawled back on the bed with her and kissed the insides of her thighs. He sucked her clit between his lips thrusting two fingers deep in her. Lauren arched towards him with a loud moan tossing her head.

He took her right to the edge and pulled back. Lauren moaned and pleaded with him. He smiled as he watched her writhing on the bed.

Once she'd pulled back from the edge, he kissed her lips hard. Lauren moaned and arched towards him. He pushed her hips back down as he kissed her. He slowly peeled her blindfold off wanting to watch her eyes. He thrust into her making her moan loud as she arched up to him pushing him deep. She didn't have the words at how amazing he felt.

They rocked together hard and fast until they both exploded into oblivion. She was floating in the stars as he nuzzled her neck panting her name.

Once they'd both come down he carefully untied her kissing all over her. She quickly flipped them and thrust down on him. Jay moaned as she pinned his hands.

She sat still making him moan. She kept just squeezing her muscles teasing him. "Next time don't make me wait," she growled in his ear as she squeezed him tight.

Jay moaned at the feelings she was creating. She bit his shoulder and neck as she squeezed. Jay arched up needing her to move.

"Every time you move, makes it that much longer," she whispered biting his ear lobe. She knew his ears were his spot and she couldn't resist.

Jay moaned loud at her words and actions. She had no idea how hot it was when she did this to him. She squeezed him over and over until he was throbbing in her. She moaned as she kissed him.

"Baby please," he moaned tossing his head.

"Please what?" she grinned down at him.

"Need…." He panted.

"Need what?" she smiled squeezing him so hard.

"To come," he moaned arching up unable to stop himself. She leaned down and bit his ear lobe again.

"Me too," she whispered thrusting down on him hard and fast. After a few thrusts they screamed each other's names as they came together. He held her tight on top of him as they both came down panting for breath.

"You…. Are…. Amazing," he panted as she nuzzled his neck.

"So are you," she whispered. She nuzzled him as they basked in the afterglow. It wasn't long and he heard her breathing even out letting him know she was asleep.

He watched her for the longest just taking in her beauty. Sometimes he couldn't believe he'd actually gotten her back but he was so glad he had. She was his whole world, she and their twins, and he would be completely lost without them. He eventually drifted off with a smile of his face.

The next morning Jay awoke and she was still on top of him snuggled close. Jay smiled as he softly rubbed her back. He sent Mouse a text asking how the twins were, and Mouse said they were fine and he as giving them bottles. Jay smiled glad Mouse had come with them. He knew he needed to spend some time with Mouse and make sure he really was ok after shooting Erin, so today he would.

After Lauren woke and they had breakfast, she took the twins to hers and Jay's room to play and snuggle while Jay and Mouse had time together. She'd agreed with Jay that he needed to spend time with Mouse and she was totally ok with it. She settled the babies on the bed with her with a smile.

Jay and Mouse went downstairs to the man cave half of the basement to box together. It'd been a really long time since they'd done that, probably since their Ranger days Jay thought.

"So what's up?" Mouse asked him.

"Just wanted to make sure you were good," he said strapping on gloves.

"Yea, yea I'm fine. Why?"

"Well I dunno. Just thought it might have brought up some uncomfortable memories," Jay said with a shrug as Mouse held the bag for him.

"Eh…. Kinda, but being here and playing with the twins has helped."

Jay nodded as he started boxing. They settled into a comfortable silence while Jay attacked the bag. Once he'd finished they switched. Jay held the bag for Mouse and Mouse put on the gloves. "You sure you don't need to talk?" Jay asked him.

Mouse shrugged and started boxing. "Mouse come on man, you know you can talk to me."

Mouse sighed and took a break. "I don't know man. It just, I didn't even see it as her, ya know. It was just a target I had to take out to protect my brother," Mouse said with a shrug.

Jay gave his shoulder a squeeze. "I know man, and I'm so glad you were there too."

Mouse nodded. "I've always got your back Jay, always."

"I know. Same to you Mouse," Jay said with a smile.

"Hey, Jay?"

"Yea?" Jay asked.

"You still have dreams?"

"Not in a while. You dreaming buddy?"

Mouse shrugged.

"Come on Mouse, tell me."

"Yea some since that day."

"Are they bad?"

"Not really. Just…. The normal ones from Kandahar."

"Mouse…."

"I know, I know. I'm not ignoring it or letting it get me down. Like I said, this is helping. But Kandahar man, it still haunts me sometimes."

"I know," Jay whispered. "Do you know since Lauren came back a year and a half ago, I haven't had a dream?"

"That's great buddy. That's really great," Mouse said.

"Yea I know. But you're right about Kandahar. It is haunting. We lost good friends there."

Mouse nodded. "Yea I know. I always wonder if we could've done something different. If we could've gone in and saved them sooner."

"I've wondered the same, but Mouse, had we done anything different, we might not have been the ones to come home. You know the guilt I've felt and carried for so long, but being here with my family and friends, I've learned to accept it and appreciate the fact that I'm getting this life with my beautiful wife and babies. We just have to honor them with our daily lives."

Mouse gave a slight smile. "I'm really glad to hear you saying that Jay. This is what I've wanted for you for the longest. To just be happy."

"I really am Mouse. I really, really am."

"It shows," Mouse smiled as they hugged before heading upstairs. While he still had memories that haunt him, he would be ok. If Jay was ok, he would be ok too.

The rest of the days at the cabin were spent relaxing and playing with the babies. They had the first really good snowfall of the season so they bundled the twins up really good and took them out for a short bit to play. Mouse snapped pictures of them all playing in the snow for them. It was such fun. Jay even made them a snowman that Lauren just loved.

Jayden rolled over the day before they went home and just grinned at them totally proud of himself. Lauren and Jay got it on video to share with everybody. Jayla tried her hardest to do what Jayden had done, and with a little help she was able to. Lauren knew it wouldn't be long and they would be rolling all the time. They babbled so much and were getting so big. She loved watching them learn new things.

After they got back home, they settled back in for a normal week. Jay would be going back to work, and she would be staying home with the babies. Her birthday was just three weeks away and so was the twins first Thanksgiving. Lauren couldn't wait. The holidays were going to be so much fun this year with the babies and she couldn't wait.

Let me know your thoughts :)
