Chapter Thirty Nine
"Are you comfortable Edit? Do you need an extra pillow or anything?"
"A couple pillows would be great," she replied she and Jamie decided to indulge him on the small things
Armin brought a few pillows over setting them behind her.
Jamie sent a text, just a simple smile with a heart. Eddie checked her phone smiling, "Text Jamie a heart," she commanded.
"He is too good to me," Eddie smiled. "I got lucky dad. I got really lucky."
"I'm glad Jamie makes you happy Edit that's all I want is for you to be happy"
"He does," Eddie replied. "Takes a very special man to love me this way."
"You are very special Edit any man would be lucky to have you."
"Thanks Dad," she smiled. "Can you rub my neck, it's sore."
Armin moved off the couch sitting beside Eddie and rubbed her neck gently. "How does that feel?"
"Good," she smiled. "I'm so tired."
"Get some rest honey," Armin assured. Henry began to cry in earnest and kick his legs
"Soon as I feed Henry can you bring him over please?"
Armin scooped his grandson and handed him to Eddie..."Just give us a little privacy please."
"Sure Edit I'll be in the kitchen just call when you're ready," Armin nodded
Eddie sighed and held Henry as he ate. "My little guy... so cute. Such a big boy..." Eddie rocked him gently.
They napped together, Linda came to help with bedtime when Jamie was late once again. He was stressed already and Eddie didn't want to pressure him more.
He slipped in quietly shrugging his jacket off and checked the living room.
It was quiet, and dark. Jamie slid into the bedroom, Eddie was sound asleep
He smiled changing then carefully got into bed with her
She stirred and moved closer to him. Jamie moved his arms around her kissing her head.
He nuzzled her tight in his arms, "I love you..."
"Love you," Eddie whispered snuggling against him
Armin woke up to Eddie giggling as Jamie turned her that night. "Are you off today," Eddie asked resting her head on his chest
"Not till tomorrow," he replied. "This case is a doozy...wiggle right."
Eddie sighed, "I can't wait 'til you're off so we can spend time together."
"Me neither," Jamie replied. "I can't wait to pass the kids off on your Dad, sit in the dark with a glass of wine, and kiss you all over."
Eddie smiled, 'That sounds really nice. Nothing and no one but us."
Jamie gave her a warm kiss and tickled her near her neck. She laughed again, Armin heard the goings on and pushed the door open.
"Oh you really should be sleeping Edit needs rest and Jamie you have work."
"I know, but I had to turn her," Jamie replied. "She hasn't been getting turned enough and she will get a sore."
"She could tell me while I'm here and I'll turn her. Go to sleep Jamie."
Jamie was getting frustrated and he backed up, "Okay, you turn her. Show me how you turn her!" Armin came in scooping Eddie up carefully and slowly turning her
"Dad. No, no!" Eddie felt her head whipping and the neck unsupported.
Jamie quickly went to Eddie's side slipping her body in his arms supporting her. "I've been doing this the entire time I know how to handle everything!"
"I just didn't want you to wake her...she was sick..." Armin felt awful."
"I know like I've said I've been taking care of Eddie a long time. I know what she needs."
Armin nodded and left the room like a whipped puppy
Eddie felt terrible. "He just wants to help he just wants to be my dad."
"I get that Eddie but he almost hurt you. Are you okay? Let me check your neck."
"I'm okay," she replied. "Just got a little dizzy." Jamie set her in bed still checking to make sure then laid beside her.
"Can we teach him a little more so he can help?" Eddie asked. "I hate we hurt his feelings Jamie."
Jamie sighed, "of course we can Eddie it would be safer to do that."
"Thank you," she replied. "I'll talk to him about relaxing with how we do things too now I'm better. Fever free for a week I think we can set the catheter again this weekend."
"Good you do still need rest though," Jamie positioned Eddie in his arms, lying down with her
"I will, but soon I can come back to work."
"Just make sure you're ready,' Jamie kissed her head.
"I will,* Eddie replied. "A couple days a week, part time, you need my help._
"I do I need my best partner," Jamie smiled.
Jamie kissed Eddie softly, "we will talk about work tomorrow. Rest."
Eddie rested her head on his chest and closed her eyes.
Jamie and Eddie are starting to make love, and Armin walks in and he's astonished they don't hat he thought the kids were invitro.
Frank called Jamie the next morning to offer his babysitting services. "I know Henry can't stay over but Annabeth can."
"Hey Dad, yeah of course Annabeth would love to stay with you overnight."
"You two haven't needed me as much…" Frank began.
"Oh, dad don't say that we always need and want you. You're always welcome."
"Well, I don't want to intrude," Frank replied. "So, Saturday."
"You aren't dad we love having you here don't think like that. Come anytime you want"
"I'll come pick her up around 4 on Saturday and you can take her home after dinner on Sunday," Frank replied.
"Sounds good and dad I really mean it come over anytime. Just because Armin is here doesn't mean we don't need you."
Frank smiled at that and hung up, Baker was right again.
Jamie went into full plan mode, dinner in their bedroom, candles, wine, and of course love making.
Jamie knew they had to tell Armin but first he had to talk with Eddie
Jamie gave Eddie a long kiss, "Hey pretty girl, how about date night on Saturday. My dad is going to take Annabeth for the night"
"Oh yeah he hasn't seen the kids for a bit. My dad can take Henry sounds like a plan," Eddie smiled
Jamie kissed her, "red or white?"
"Hmm surprise me. I can't wait to spend some time together"
He held her close and tight, before getting her into her chair to start their day.
Saturday came quickly
Annabeth was playing in the living room with Armin happily when the bell rang.
Armin got up and let Frank in. Constance was helpings Eddie with her make up
"Armin how are you," frank greeted with a smile as he stepped inside
"Poppa!" Annabeth's eyes lit up and she ran to Frank
Frank caught her in his arms and kissed her, "There she is, Grandpa missed you."
"So, you and Jamie going to get reacquainted tonight?" Constance asked. "He asked me to take Dad to meet Marcus."
"Yeah, I'm really excited we don't really have us time, so this is going to be really something"
"Good," Constance smiled. ""I know that Marcus has been working late to help Jamie sometimes and I'm spending a lot more time with his boys.
"Yeah they're working hard on the case Jamie is exhausted and I'm sure Marcus is too."
"Well, he has his tour and the PI work he's doing with Jamie at the law firm," Constance smiled. She turned Eddie around, "What do you think? As good as when Nancy does it?"
"It looks really good thanks," Eddie smiled looking at herself in the mirror
"You are so pretty," Constance smiled. "Big sister." She put her arms around Eddie. "Well, Dad and I are going to take Henry, we'll feed him a couple of times."
"Thanks so much I really appreciate it. I'm really excited about tonight
"You keep saying that," Constance laughed. They heard Jamie's voice in the living room, "Ah your prince has arrived."
Eddie smiled, taking one more look at herself in the mirror. "Ready."
"Okay, then let's go get 'em..." Constance beamed and hugged Eddie tight.
Eddie grinned following her to the living room where Jamie waited
They made gentle and light conversation, relishing in the time to themselves and the closeness. It didn't take long for them to relocate to the bedroom
Jamie gently set Eddie on the bed kneeling beside her eyes twinkling at her. "You look beautiful."
"I feel beautiful with you..." she whispered. "I want you to touch me. You know where."
"Yes ma'am," Jamie smiled leaning down meeting her lips softly.
They kissed gently, Jamie spending time caressing her face, neck, and shoulders. She slowly brought her arms up and cupped his cheeks.
Jamie took his time gently running his fingers through her hair leaving kisses on her
Jamie massaged her shoulder, ran kisses down her neck, and over her lip
"I'm going to take care of you," Jamie whispered holding her close.
"I need you," she murmured. "I need you so much..."
"I'm right here," Jamie slipped his arms around her waist holding her.
They took a few hours to touch and love each other before transitioning. Jamie and Eddie didn't hear the door open to announce the return of Armin and Henry.
"You were such a good boy let's just say hi to mommy and daddy then we can rock you to sleep."
Henry cooed and kicked his feet in his carrier. Armin set him down on the couch and headed for the bedroom. When he walked in, Eddie was naked and Jamie was undressed to his waist. He was kissing Eddie's chest and stomach as he positioned her legs with the pillows.
"What are you doing?" Armin gasped shocked. "Get...what are you doing to my Edit?"
Jamie moved to Eddie's side her face totally humiliated. "Dad! It's fine really!"
Jamie covered Eddie with a sheet and stood up, "Okay, this is not okay! We are trying to have sex here! You can't just walk in here!"
"I'm glad I did!" Armin thundered. "What are you doing to my daughter? Edit?"
Eddie was red as a beet, she looked down at her legs, spread apart, propped on pillows, covered by a sheet. "Uh, Dad, Jamie and I are married, we are…"
"I'm getting ready to make love to your daughter that was the point of tonight for us to be alone and make love to each other like couples do!" Jamie was beyond angry this time. He put up with Armin's interference in Eddie's care, he let him try to take care of her, and baby her…that was how Eddie wanted it, she wanted him to acclimate, but this was just too much.
Armin hurried out of the room, dumfounded that his daughter was doing that. Yes, she was a married woman, and yes, she was an adult, but she was severely disabled, so much so she had to wear diapers and be turned around in bed and she was having sexual intimacies…that baffled him.
Eddie was beyond humiliated and Jamie was not going to take that one more second. "Help me up," Eddie sighed. "I'm going to clear this up then we are having our special night, he is not taking this from us, no one is. Help me, please!"
Jamie knew better than to deny Eddie when she felt this way, he carefully set her in her chair and stood back as she went to talk to her father.
"Edit, I'm so sorry," Armin nearly stuttered. "I just wanted to let you know Henry and I were home and he was going to get ready to nurse."
"Thank you, but that's why I pumped extra milk," Eddie sighed. "Dad, you had to know Jamie and I were intimate. Not only are we married for three years but we have two kids that did not spring from the cabbage patch."
"Well," Armin sighed. "A father never wants to think about his daughter doing what you and Jamie were getting prepared to do, and second, I honestly thought you used more modern technology to get the kids, in vitro or something like that."
Jamie joined them in the room, lifting Henry, "No, while it has its place we got both our little ones the old fashioned way and this one was planned…" He kissed Henry's head. "Eddie and I have a normal sex life, and we like normal things like being able to enjoy that sex life in private."
Jamie scooped Eddie out of her chair, "Where were we?" he asked. "Oh, yes, I was telling you how much I love you and how beautiful you are."
Eddie smiled, "Jamie, make sure you lock the door."
