For anyone who wishes to by pass any sex, when you come to the 2nd page line (it is right after they buy the new rocking chair), skip down to the 3rd one.


Tuesday had been better for Happy and Toby. He'd been really remorseful over the abuse he had unleashed on Happy and while she was still skittish he saw small glimpses of the woman he had married. He even climbed into her truck and detailed the inside, to make up for what he'd done, while she washed the outside.

He apologized for his attitude over the rocking chair and with her agreeing they took the chair they bought Sunday back to the store and exchanged it for a heavier duty model. Toby even stopped on the way back to the front with a new ticket to look at seat cushions. When Happy looked at him with curiosity about his inquiring about which cushion she liked best he grinned. "I can't imagine that hard seat felt very good to your knees last Thursday. I thought just in case you ever want to try it again."

Happy blushed even as she pointed at a certain one and Toby snagged it.

As they began walking back towards the front they were passing by the baby section and Toby frowned but looking at Happy peripherally he smiled as he pointed. "You'd said you wanted to get Paige a different baby crib so we could keep ours. Did you still want to do that?"

Happy's eyes went wide in disbelief but she nodded slightly. "I-if you don't mind I would."

Toby nodded. "Well we got the money so pick out whichever one you want to get them. If you want to get her the same model I'm okay with it."

Happy felt a tear run down the side of her cheek and she reached up and wiped it away. "Thank you." She walked over and looked at all the models and then looked back at Toby. "Are you absolutely sure about this?" Part of her worried it was a test or that he'll pull another cruel joke on her.

Toby squeezed her hand. "Happy, I'm not messing with you. I'm not saying everything is forgiven with her and me, far from it. But I need us to be in a good place together. I know what Paige means to you, I know what her baby means to you as well. And I need you to know how much you mean to me. If this simple thing helps with that, I'm happy we can do this for her."

Happy smiled at him as she planned to test his resolve. She reached out and pulled the ticket from the same model she'd bought back when she thought she was pregnant while she was still married to Walter.

Toby only nodded with a smile as they turned and holding hands walked up to the cashier. The same younger man who had carried out their first rocking chair brought their new rocking chair and the boxed baby bed up on a rolling cart. As they pushed out into the parking lot he looked at them both. "If you don't mind me saying you look happier today then you did Sunday. I'm glad things are looking better for you."

Happy nodded.

Toby put the gate of the truck down. "Yup, things seem so much better."

The young man nodded as he moved the rocking chair off the box and then picked it up and slid it into the bed. He considered the box possibly sliding. "You don't have anything to secure this box with so it doesn't slide and possibly damage your rocking chair do you?"

Happy nodded and climbed up in the bed and opened the tool chest and pulled out a number of bungee cords and strapped it down once the young man pulled the box up on its edge.

He picked up the rocking chair and put it so if the box came loose it wouldn't fall against the side of the chair.

Happy looked at Toby as he closed the gate after she jumped down. "Do you mind if I drive?"

Toby looked shocked but shook his head no as he opened the door for her. Happy took a breath and stepped up and climbed inside. Toby closed the door before walking around and climbing in. He made sure to sit as close to his door just to be sure she was as comfortable as possible.


Wednesday morning Toby was having a very arousing dream as he slept on the couch. He'd chosen to sleep there the last three nights to give Happy more time to regain her sense of comfort and feeling safe around him. He was dreaming he was sitting on the couch when Happy came into the front room naked. The way she walked was pure arousal. There was a sultry way her hips swayed back and forth and then an almost a pop to them as they completed each pass until she stood between his feet. She raised a finger up and slipped it between her lips and slowly knelt down.

Toby's eyes opened wide as she tugged on his belt and opened his pants. She had just a bit of trouble getting his excited manhood out of his pants and she just grinned at him as he stared at her in disbelief. She winked and then her head pushed down and took him into her mouth briefly before she pulled back up and moved her tongue down to the base of his manhood and began licking her way backup.

His right hand reached out and he felt her hair as his eyes closed in pleasure. His hand closed into her hair as she moved around his manhood. As he groaned in excitement his eyes opened as he realized he was dreaming but then the dream turned out to be reality as Happy was knelt next to the couch as he laid there with his manhood in her mouth.

He fought to remain in control of his passion but the talent at which she pleasured him defied his control. After just a few minutes he cried out. "Happy, I'm about to come."

Happy smiled as she redoubled her effort until he began shaking in his orgasm and cried out his release. Happy grinned and swallowed as she continued to lightly suck and then moved to licking his manhood as it softened.

Toby moaned at the feelings. She had completely rocked his world and he couldn't be happier at the moment. He finally looked down when he no longer felt her mouth or tongue. He saw her watching his face grinning at him. He reached down and pulled gently on her arm and Happy slipped up on top of him before rolling into the small space between him and the back of the couch.

Toby hugged her tightly against him. "Happy, damn, that was amazing. Thank you."

Happy smiled as she pressed her lips into his chest and kissed him above his heart. "I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't know how often I can do it, there is still something too subservient about it but I definitely want to keep it in our love making arsenal."

Toby nodded his agreement. "Well I'm definitely interested in that anytime you are comfortable with doing it."

Happy laughed. "So Paige was a pretty good teacher huh?"

Toby grinned and nodded.


Dr. Rizzuto opened his office door and let a couple of men out before he stepped out and smiled at Happy and Toby. "Come on in kids and grab some couch."

Dr. Rizzuto was surprised at the change in Happy. She was still a good ways away from who she used to be but clearly he felt that both of them had been working hard at making things better between them.

"So I got to say I see remarkable improvement in you Happy as well as what I am seeing between the two of you. Honestly I figured it would be a week or two before we got to this level of comfort." Dr. Rizzuto told them as he sat down in his chair.

"So what happened that brought you both to where you are?" Dr. Rizzuto asked.

"Well we had a number of talks and Toby was willing to keep his distance and not press me so I could stay comfortable. Then yesterday we both cleaned and detailed my truck before we returned the rocking chair and got a better model." Happy looked away before she blushed just a bit as the memory came back. "And then he suggested a cushion for it in case I ever wanted to repeat the act that broke the other one. And then he volunteered that we go ahead and get a new crib since I had promised Paige to let her use the one I'd gotten back when I thought I was pregnant the first time."

Dr. Rizzuto nodded as he smiled. "That's some pretty good things then. Is that all?"

Happy blushed even as Toby shook his head. "Happy woke me up this morning in the most pleasing of manners."

Dr. Rizzuto chuckled lightly as Happy blushed even more. "Alright let's talk about some other things now."

Their hour passed fairly quickly and Dr. Rizzuto brought it to a close by bringing up Paige. "So Happy, have you contacted Paige since we last talked?"

Happy shook her head. "I'm waiting until Monday when we go back. I know Toby said I could but I just want to prove to him he is what is coming first."

Dr. Rizzuto nodded. "I'm encouraged that you want to make sure Toby knows this but I have got to make sure you understand the repercussions this is going to have."

Happy nodded. "I know Paige won't be happy, but I need to do this."

Dr. Rizzuto shook his head. "I don't just mean she won't be happy about it. She is dealing with the lack of communication from you badly. She was very distraught that I couldn't tell her anymore than I did at their meeting. It is your life, your relationships, so you can make your own decisions but I strongly encourage you. If Toby is still okay with you contacting her, then you should do so and the sooner the better. Remember how you felt after Toby made the demand that you couldn't contact Paige? Well that is where she is with the addition of knowing that Toby said you could contact her and you have chosen to ignore her."

Happy frowned. "H-how does she know Toby said I could contact her?"

Toby kind of held up his hand. "I messaged her. I figured she'd contact you and the two of you would talk and it would help you. I didn't realize you turned your phone off."

Dr. Rizzuto nodded. "And for a while she thought you had done that to just mess with her until I confirmed that you both told me that you told Happy she could contact her. She was pretty messed up before our session and I'm sorry to say she was messed up even more after because I couldn't go into any details of what we discussed."

They both noticed Happy's knee began bouncing up and down. "I'm going to have to call her then Fungus. I didn't do this to cause her pain or suffering. I only did it so you would know you were my priority."

Toby nodded. "I believe you Happy but I told you so you could have a source of strength to rely on outside of us, because everyone should have one."

Dr. Rizzuto nodded. "That's an interesting observation Toby. Who is your source of strength outside of you two?"

Toby shook his head. "I don't have one right now. I'm just trying to channel my snarky side into the strength I need."

Dr. Rizzuto nodded. "Well I recommend you call Paige as soon as possible Happy." He told her as a way of goodbye.

Happy nodded as they stood up and left his office. Happy climbed into her truck and reached for her phone when she remembered she'd left it at the house. "I left my phone at the house." She complained.

Toby held his out to her and she shook her head. "No, I can wait until we get home."

Toby nodded. "If that is what you want."


Happy pulled up into the drive in front of their garage and they got out of the truck. "Can we not have anymore late afternoon appointments?"

Toby laughed. "Well considering they were good enough to get us squeezed into his schedule I'm okay with it, but we'll see going forward."

Happy smiled as Toby opened their door. As it closed behind them they both kicked off their shoes. "What do you think for dinner? Want pizza or Chinese maybe?" Toby asked.

Happy grinned. "Well Chinese of course."

Toby laughed as he pulled out his phone just as it rang. He frowned and looked at it. "It's Ralph."

Happy frowned too as Toby pressed answer and put it on speaker. "Ralph?"

"Oh thank goodness. Toby, look I'm at Caltech. Grandpa just dropped me off. But Mom's in trouble. I don't know what is going on with her. But she hardly goes for more than an hour without crying. She rarely gets out of bed. Dad really has to raise hell with her just to get her to come out to the table to eat with us. She's barely eating. Maybe two or three bites and then goes back to bed. They keep saying they are okay but I think Dad did something and Mom is heart broken." Ralph rushed to speak.

Toby saw Happy's hand come up to her mouth. "Well that is a little concerning Ralph but we're on vacation buddy."

"You're on vacation? Toby this is my Mom and she is so horribly despondent. Dr. Rizzuto has had zero luck in helping her and really after Tuesday's meeting she was even worse. Please I need you to talk to Mom and help her. I know you can." Ralph begged.

Toby watched as tears ran down Happy's cheeks as Ralph's pleas for help and everything he described that was going on with Paige tore at her. "Look buddy, I'm sure Dr. Rizzuto has a handle on this. You got to trust him."

"No, he doesn't Toby. I know my Mom. You remember what she was like when she broke up with Dad last time. That looked like a picnic compared to what she is going through now. I can't take having our family tore apart again Toby. Mom and I need your help, please." Ralph continued to beg.

"Look Ralph, I am quite sure that what is going on with your Mom has nothing to do with your Dad and they are not breaking up." Toby said a bit more upset.

"No, you don't know. You haven't been here since last Thursday. Something happen when you and Happy were gone to that medical conference. And I was gone with Grandpa and Allie camping. We never should have left them alone. Toby please, I'm talking about family." Ralph still begged.

"You're damn right it's about family." Toby said angrily.

"W-what's that suppose to mean? Toby, what is going on? What do you know that I should know? Please? Is Happy there, maybe she can help me?" Ralph begged.

Happy finally broke and in between sobs she ran over and out the door. She ran out and climbed in her truck even as Toby ran out after her. "Happy, wait, you aren't even wearing your shoes!"

Happy's truck roared to life and she threw the truck into reverse and took off out of their drive, stopping briefly before slamming it back into first gear and took off. "Look Ralph I'm going to have to call you back. Ralph?" Toby looked at his phone and saw the call had already ended.


Greetings! Hope this finds you all well!

Franxine - Do I get a kick out of cliffhangers? lol No, but sometimes they have to happen. You're probably going to be mad where this ended. hehe

Railman - I love Daddy Walter! Yeah Paige is having a hard time.

Margaret - Well with the exception of Drew and Tim, Paige ended her relationships because of infidelities on the other persons' part. Interestingly enough that didn't stop her with Happy or bringing Happy and Walter together. I'm not sure you could say she raped Walter in the motel room. Good reason not to drink to excess though. But no she didn't manipulate Toby about the conference. In the other story Toby had wanted to go to the conference with Happy and had asked Paige about it. Paige had gotten permission from Walter for Scorpion to pay for the trip and conference but due to pregnancy nausea Happy had fallen behind on her project. When Paige told him Happy couldn't go because it risked them being in breech of contract Toby still wanted to go, disappointed but he chose to go. Also in the story Happy had wanted to see Paige perform a certain sex act with Walter. So since Toby would be gone and Sly would be at a convention all weekend Paige had planned to let her. To accomplish it, she'd blindfolded Walter so he couldn't see, restrained his hands and used the coms to play music in his ears effectively eliminating any chance he'd know that Happy was there watching. But as things sometimes happens, this is where the wheels came off and Paige decided to up the ante. While she didn't force her, she did "encourage" Happy to do something with Walter. And the rest they say is history.

2LawDog - Ralph , oh boy, right? LOL And poor Cabe. Chapter 12 he is going to know far too much about what is going on behind closed doors. LOL

To the Adventure! -Tim
