Happy Birthday
"Hey, is Jude in?" Thea asked, standing outside the hotel room where Sean answered. She'd gotten the details from Cassie and had woken up with the aim to set things right with her sister.
"Yeah, she was just in the shower." Sean nodded, "Come in." He told her as Thea walked into the hotel room.
"How are you?" Thea asked him.
"I'm good. You?" Sean asked her.
"Yeah, I'm alright." Thea said.
"You want a coffee?" Sean asked.
"No, I'm fine." Thea smiled.
"Aunt Thea!" Mirren came running over.
"Hey girl." Thea smiled happily, crouching down and giving her niece a hug, "Oh, I missed you." Thea nodded, squeezing her tightly whilst Sean smiled, "How have you been?" Thea asked her, "I love this hairband." Thea nodded, looking at the red bow hairband in Mirren's hair.
"Thanks." Mirren smiled, "I'm fine." She told her aunt, "Mommy's in the shower."
"Is she taking so long?" Thea smiled.
"Yeah." Mirren said as Sean chuckled, "And my sister is napping because she's still a baby." She nodded with superiority.
"You still nap too." Sean added as Mirren looked up at him unhappily.
"Not… all the time." Mirren objected as Thea smiled.
"Hey, there's nothing wrong with a good nap. I love taking a nap." Thea nodded as Mirren smiled.
"Sean." Jude called from the bathroom.
"Yeah?" Sean walked over, opening up the door where Jude was hanging out the shower.
"Could you pass me in my shower bag? I think it's still in my suitcase." Jude said as Sean nodded.
"Thea is here to see you." Sean let her know as Jude nodded.
"Ok, I'll… be as quick as I can." Jude said.
"I'll get you the bag." Sean nodded, leaving the bathroom and walking over to their unpacked suitcases, "She'll not be long." He nodded over to Thea.
"That's ok. Mirren's telling me all about the new addition to the family." Thea said, sitting over on the couch with Mirren, who she absolutely adored, just like all her nieces and her nephew.
"Oh, Rex?" Sean asked as Thea nodded with a smile.
"He's mine." Mirren told her aunt, "I named him and… and he sits on my lap at night." She said as Thea smiled.
"Yeah, he's yours but mommy and daddy clean his house, don't we?" Sean said, walking back over to the bathroom to give Jude her bag for the bathroom.
"I help clean it too." Mirren made clear to Thea who nodded.
"Of course." Thea smiled, hearing all about her nieces new bearded dragon. She wasn't surprised at Jude for getting the girls such an obscure pet, "You didn't want a dog, huh?" Thea laughed a little, looking over to Sean.
"They love him." Sean nodded.
"Daddy show a picture of him." Mirren nodded excitedly as Sean smiled, walking over and showing a picture on his phone of Mirren holding Rex, "Look, that's me and him." She told her aunt as Thea looked on.
"Oh, he's kinda cute." Thea laughed a little.
"I came home from work one night and found Jude sitting on the floor talking to him." Sean told her as Thea nodded.
"He's sweet." Thea smiled, watching as the bathroom door opened where Jude came out with some shorts and t-shirt on, her hair wet.
"Uh… Mir, why don't we go downstairs and get some ice-cream?" Sean suggested.
"Ok." Mirren nodded, getting off the sofa and taking her father's hand.
"Lee is still sleeping over there." Sean told Jude who looked over where two year old Leela was sleeping on their bed.
"Ok, thank you." Jude nodded to him as he took Mirren out of the room.
"She was showing me the dragon thing." Thea nodded.
"His name is Rex." Jude said defensively, "And he's a bearded dragon." She nodded.
"Ok." Thea nodded awkwardly, standing up from the sofa, "I just… I'm here to apologise to you." She said as Jude looked over at her, "I know you weren't trying to hurt me or… tell me how to live my life."
"You've just realised?" Jude asked.
"I think I tend to jump the gun, maybe. And I think that instead of hearing what you said I… I actually went by how I felt. I guess I was disappointed in myself for maybe not being there for dad as much as I should have been." Thea said, "I took it out on you and I'm sorry about that." She nodded as Jude looked across at her, "My head's kinda been up my ass lately."
"I sort of figured." Jude nodded.
"I'm sorry." Thea nodded sincerely as Jude nodded.
"Well… apology accepted." Jude said, "And you shouldn't feel like that. Like you've not done enough."
"I know I shouldn't but… I'm still dealing with a lot of stuff. In therapy. Out of therapy." Thea said, "I guess I just gotta learn to not be so defensive when it's my own head that causes the problems in the first place."
"You're doing good." Jude nodded to her.
"Am I?" Thea laughed a little.
"Yeah, you are. And I get it." Jude said as Thea nodded.
"Yeah, you do." Thea smiled, "I don't like to hug but… can we?" She wondered as Jude smiled.
"Of course we can." Jude nodded as Thea walked over to her, hugging her tightly as Jude hugged back.
"Ok, blow your candles out." AJ smiled, standing behind Punk as he sat at the kitchen table with a lit birthday cake in front of him and his family standing around.
"Make a wish." Sofia told him whilst Punk had Leela sitting on his knee.
"Ok, let me think." Punk nodded, closing his eyes over before leaning forward and blowing the candles out as AJ smiled, leaning over and kissing his cheek.
"Can we eat it now?" James huffed, sitting across as Punk laughed.
"Yeah, we can eat it." Punk chuckled. The truth was, he couldn't wish for any better than this. To be surrounded by his family, to have them healthy and happy.
"Ok, I'll cut some pieces for everyone." AJ nodded, taking the cake over.
"You want some cake?" Punk asked Leela, his youngest grandchild and by far the cuddliest.
"Yeah." Leela grinned, leaning back against him as Punk kissed her head.
"Just a little bit." Jude nodded.
"No, we were gonna give her a piece the size of her head actually." Punk nodded sarcastically as Jude just smiled.
"So how was your day? What did you get up to?" Cassie asked her father.
"Your mom took me out for breakfast like she always does." Punk smiled, "Dean came by earlier with Renee and then Sarah dropped by. And now you're all here, eating all the food from my kitchen." Punk nodded, looking over at Theo was hands deep into a bag of chips.
"Oh, that reminds me actually." Thea said, walking over to her purse and taking the card out, "This is from Chrissy. She said she was working so she gave it to me when I saw her a couple days ago." She said, handing the birthday card over to her father.
"Oh, Dean told us that she was out of town with Brandon." AJ remembered as Thea folded her arms.
"Dean barely listens." Punk scoffed whilst AJ glanced over to Thea, "That's sweet." Punk smiled, opening up the birthday card.
"Did you like my card?" Mirren asked Punk, "I made it in pre-k." She told him.
"I loved it." Punk nodded, "It was my favourite." He whispered to her as Mirren smiled.
"What about the one I gave you?" Sofia walked over, overhearing unhappily.
"They were both my favourites." Punk nodded to them.
"You have to pick one." Sofia folded her arms, looking at Mirren who looked back. To Punk, it was exactly like looking at Thea and Jude standing in front of him. It made him smile.
"I can't. They were both great." Punk said as Sofia looked at him unconvinced whilst Mirren wandered over to her mother.
"Ok, children. Who wants some cake?" AJ asked.
"I do!" Chase yelled as Theo chuckled.
"Ok, babe. Here is yours." AJ handed Chase his cake whilst dishing out the rest.
Most of them all made their way into the living room whilst Punk sat in the kitchen, helping Leela with her piece of cake whilst Cassie sat across from him.
"You have a good day?" Cassie smiled as Punk nodded.
"It always is." Punk smiled, "You know your sister got them a dragon?" He pointed to Leela.
"It's not a dragon." Cassie chuckled, "It's a bearded dragon." She corrected.
"Still… what happened to a dog or a cat?" Punk shook his head.
"Well it's Jude. She likes being different." Cassie nodded.
"She does." Punk agreed.
"You think she's doing ok?" Cassie asked him.
"Jude?" Punk asked as Cassie nodded, "Yeah, why?"
"Just asking." Cassie said.
"Are you doing ok? You've been kinda quiet." Punk said.
"I'm fine." Cassie assured him, "Bet you that brings back memories, huh?" She smiled, watching as her dad helped Leela with some cake whilst she sat on his knee.
"Yeah." Punk laughed a little, "Feels like just yesterday."
"Doesn't it feel so good after you clear up a messy kitchen?" Punk smiled to himself, walking into the bedroom and collapsing down on the bed.
"You sound so old." AJ chuckled from in the bathroom.
"I am old." Punk laughed to himself.
"Oh, please. You're still a spring chicken." AJ teased as Punk smiled to himself, "Did you have a good day?" She called.
"Yeah, it was great. Thank you for everything." He told her.
"Did you get some cake?" AJ asked.
"Well I actually shared some with Leela. I was helping her with it and then she began to feed me it so… I probably ate most of hers." He laughed a little, watching the bathroom door open as he looked over, watching his wife standing in a lingerie set. He immediately sat up.
"It's still your birthday, right?" AJ asked as Punk checked his invisible watch on his wrist.
"Yes." Punk answered right away as she smiled, walking over to him as he watched her every move. Of course knowing she could still have his absolute full attention like this was definitely a confidence boost.
"I got you some more gifts." She smirked, pulling a bag out from under the bed as he watched closely.
"What is it? What is it?" He asked like a child.
"See for yourself." She smiled, handing him the bag as he looked inside, raising his eyebrows and chuckling to himself with enjoyment.
"I can see why you wanted to give me this after everyone left." Punk nodded as she grinned, watching him take out the can of whipped cream, "This is gonna be fun." He smirked as she nodded, grabbing the bag from him and pulling his t-shirt off, sinking down to her knees as he smiled.
He watched her as she undone his jeans, pulling them down along with his boxers which he kicked away, placing his hands on the mattress behind him as he watched her stroking him up and down, kissing up his thighs as she used her hand on him.
She put her lips around his length, taking him into her mouth, bopping her head up and down as Punk closed his eyes and moaned, reaching his hand out and placing it at the back of her head.
"Fuck." Punk whispered to himself as AJ continued bopping her head up and down, sometimes slow and steady, sometimes fast and sloppy, doing what she knew made him tick.
She eventually got up from her knees as Punk watched her wipe her mouth, watching her about to climb over him onto the bed when he grabbed her hips and kept her steady, kissing her upper stomach whilst hooking his fingers in her panties, slowly pulling them down past her thighs as she smiled to herself. She already felt herself getting hot between her legs.
"You want this off too?" AJ asked, reaching behind for her bra clasp, taking it off and dangling it in front of him as he snatched it from her and threw it behind him as she chuckled.
"Ladies first." Punk nodded, standing up from the bed and giving her access as she smiled, climbing on as he slapped her ass causing her to chuckle.
"Ok, big boy. Go ahead and play with your toys." She smiled, laying down on the bed as Punk knelt onto the bed, picking the whipped cream up as she grinned, watching him shake it before squishing some over her breasts, down her stomach and her crotch area.
He leaned over her, pressing his lips against hers, kissing her passionately, trailing the kiss from her lips to her neck, down to her breasts where he got some whipped cream in the process.
She panted breathlessly as he kissed her body, moving back up to kiss her lips as she got a taste of the cream, lacing her fingers through his hair before he disappeared back down her body, kissing down her thighs and between her legs as she moaned.
For Punk there was nothing better to do on his birthday night than worship his wife's body with the fun additional extras she'd brought for him.
"You have cream on your nose." AJ chuckled, looking down at him, watching as he moved back up her body, lowering his face to hers as she licked his nose, rolling them over as he chuckled.
"Ok, give me your bag of tricks." Punk nodded as she smiled, straddling his hips and pulling the bag onto the bed.
