Chapter Thirteen: Cheering up
"Are you gonna call him?" I asked Connor. He had stared at the Smecker's business card since we'd left the diner.
"I don't know if we should get him involved," he answered.
"You said he was a good man," I replied, "And he wants to help you. Maybe he can find something on that man."
"She's right, Connor," Murphy stated. He looped his good arm around my waist.
"When am I not right?" I gave him a quick peck on the cheek, then fumbled in his pockets for a cigarette. "Call him."
We walked to the payphone and Connor dialed the number. It was a pager. He entered the number and we waited for a call back. The phone rang and Connor picked it up. I tucked myself close so I can hear them.
"The man had a silver beard. Wore a vest with six guns. He was clearly a professional," Connor said into the phone.
"That's all you can give me?" Smecker asked from the other end.
"I didn't really see his face he was maybe late 50's early 60's," Connor responded.
"One guy six guns and he was a senior freakin' citizen?" Smecker asked.
"Aye," Connor said, "It's better we find this man before he finds us again."
"I'll see what I can do," Smecker responded, "How can I get in touch with you?"
"We'll hit Papa Joe tonight right in the comfort of his own home," Connor replied, "Then we're moving onto New York, it's getting a bit hot for us here."
"Be careful," Smecker said.
"All right," Connor looked at me, "I need ya to do something for me."
"What do you need?" he asked.
"I need you to care of someone for me," Connor said, "Keep her safe until after." I looked at him in disbelief.
"I can do that," Smecker responded. "I'll send Duffy and Greenly to pick her up."
"Thank ye," Connor said, "We'll call ya tonight afterwards." He hung up the phone.
"What the hell?" I exclaimed.
"Ya can't go this time, Katie," Connor stated.
"So you're gonna pawn me off?" I asked.
"It's just until after," he replied.
"Murphy?"
"Don' look at me like dat, Katie," Murphy responded, "I agree with Conn on this. We'll be able to work better knowing ya are safe."
In desperation I looked to Rocco.
"Leave me the fuck out of this," he said. I had lost this battle.
"When are you leaving?" I asked.
"Not for a while," Connor answered.
"Ok," I said and took his hand. We walked together back to Rocco's car. Rocco drove us back to my apartment.
"Hey, I'm going to get drunk," Rocco said.
"We'll see ya in a bit," Murphy responded.
"You didn't want to go?" I asked them climbing up the stairs. I still held Connor's hand and I had tucked my other in Murphy's elbow.
"Na we can drink with Rocco anytime," Murphy answered.
"We want to be wit ya right now," Connor added.
"I like that," I smiled fumbling for my keys. Connor took them from me and unlocked my door. "How do you want to spend the afternoon?"
Murphy plopped down on my couch pulling me with him. Connor took his seat beside me. I rested my hand on Murphy's leg. I held Connor's hand with my other.
"Don' look so sad, Katie," Murphy said.
"I'm sorry, I can't help it," I responded.
"Wha' can I do to cheer ya up?" Connor grinned and pulled my hair away from my neck. He kissed my neck softly.
"That's a start," I smiled back. I closed my eyes and leaned my head back. My hand inched up Murphy's leg. I tightened my hold on Connor's hand.
"Wha' ya doing, Conn?" Murphy shoved Connor off of me. "I'm cheering her up." Murphy turned my face to his and pressed his lips to mine. He ran his tongue across my lower lip. I opened my mouth and he explored it with his. He slid my hand further up his thigh.
"It was my idea," Connor shoved Murphy. I turned and looked at Connor who pulled me to him and I kissed him softly. Murphy pushed Connor off me.
"Stop it ya' ass!" Connor said pushing Murphy back. I leaned back and they were having a shoving match across me.
"Stop!" I shouted. They stopped and looked at me.
"Sorry, Katie," they said in unison.
"You're supposed to be cheering me up," I said.
"Aye, we are," Connor leaned in closer to me. I felt my face flush. He kissed me fully on the lips. He pulled me tighter in his arms. I felt Murphy's tongue on my neck. He ran hand down the front of my shirt and cupped my breast. I moaned against Connor's lips. Connor kissed me on my neck. I leaned my head back and Murphy caught my mouth with his.
I laced my fingers in Murphy's hair. Connor licked and sucked at my collarbone. He unbuttoned my shirt and kissed the top of my breast. Murphy pulled me back against him. I laid back into his chest. My lips still on his. I felt Connor lips between my breast and then on my stomach. Murphy pulled my shirt off and unclasped my bra. Murphy's hand cupped my breasts and kissed my neck again.
Connor opened my pants and pulled them down. His lips grazed the top of my moistening panties. I reached my hand back and gripped Murphy on top of his jeans. He moaned against my mouth. I pulled at the button of his pants freeing him. I gripped him in my hand. Connor pulled my panties down and kissed my inner thigh. I quivered in anticipation. He finally parted my folds and licked my clit. He entered me with his finger. I gasped against Murphy's lips and continued to stroke him.
My legs started to shake with my first orgasm. Murphy released my lips and I opened my eyes. I breathed deeply and relaxed back on the couch.
"Are ya cheered up yet?" Connor asked.
"Almost," I said. I leaned forward and kissed him on the mouth. He let me explore his mouth with my tongue. I felt Murphy lift my hips so that I was on my knees. His fingers dug into my hips as he entered me from behind. My fingers pulled at Connor's hair as I came again. Murphy thrust again and cried out as he came.
"How about now?" Murphy asked.
"Just about," I responded. I kissed Connor again and tugged at his pants. He lowered them and pulled me into his lap. I guided him inside me. Connor held my hips as I lifted up and down. I clenched my walls around him as I came again. I felt Connor explode inside me. Connor pulled my face to his and kissed me softly on the lips. I climbed off his lap and sat between them on the couch.
I grabbed a cigarette off the table and lit it. I handed Murphy the remote and leaned back onto his chest. Connor leaned back onto mine. I smiled snuggling into my boys. I knew the day was getting away from us and they would be going to take out Papa Joe soon.
