She'd fed, bathed, burped, fed, sung, cuddled and snuggled Sophia. She tucked her into her cot asleep, she turned on the night light and turned on the monitor and snuck out leaving the door open so they could hear her. Carol come out to the lounge seeing both Merle and Andrea watching tv snuggling on the couch. Carol felt a little jealous that they were able to spend time together normally.
Daryl was sound asleep still he was totally spent emotionally and so was she. She took a shower and washed her hair, pulled on some cute pj's that somehow appeared in the bathroom while she was taking a shower. Cute little boxers and a singlet top. It seemed Andrea's obsession was cute pj's. She come out in her new outfit stopping by the couch to give her a hug to thank her.
'Now now, ' Merle told told her, 'Get your own girl,'
'You wish,' Andrea told him, 'Come join us, move over Merle,'
'No its ok, I want to just... I don't know,' Carol searched for the words, she just wanted to look and hold him. Thankful she still had him even though he'd been behaving like a bit of a brat but he was struggling. 'I might just snuggle him and watch a movie,'
'What do you want to watch, I've got everything,' Andrea told her, Carol chose two movies to watch and went into their room, she stuck her head back out.
'Keep an ear out for Sophia? Check her for me?' Carol asked them, she knew she didn't have to ask Uncle Merle checked her all the time during the night, he would get up wander down tuck her in. She had heard him checking and talking to her over the monitor during the night when he forgot she had it. He was desperate for them to have a baby and become very attached to Sophia.
Not that Carol minded, while she was so tired and barely functioning, Merle had helped getting up and bringing her to her for feeds, and just generally helping with Sophia while Carol was busy with Daryl.
'Uncle Merles on it,' Andrea called out, 'He's already been in twice while you were in the shower,'
Carol turned on the tv and put the dvd in and pushed play, run it through the previews, climbed into bed beside Daryl who was lying on his side facing her. She stroked the hair off his face and bent over to kiss him then settled back running her hand up and down his shoulder while she watched her movie, it was funny and for the first time in a long time she felt like she could laugh while actually watching a movie without being distracted.
Half way through the movie she was aware Daryl was awake, his breathing patterned changed as she was still running her hand up and down his back, he moved slightly and groaned a little trying to move so he wasn't so stiff in the bed. He moved pulling his pillow with him so his head was near her belly, wriggled down the bed with his arm around her waist.
His hand drifted up over her tummy finding the gap between the boxers and the top. A finger tracing across the bare skin there. He moved his hand down into her shorts, she looked down at him, he looked up at her. His hand down over her slit tracing his finger up her.
'You shouldn't be doing this,' she told him.
'Why? It feels nice, I can touch my wife,' he told her.
'You might want to calm down, you shouldn't be doing this,' Carol tried to tell him but forgot when his finger circled her clit. 'God,'
'Please, just... go on top,' He rolled on his back and tried to encourage Carol to climb on him, she shook her head. She didn't know if she should or not. She didn't want to hurt him or do something that was going to damage his arm anymore.
'I'll be fine, baby please,' Daryl suggested to her again. He was pouting and put more effort into rubbing her clit, that she moved dropping her pants, pulling them down over her legs. Daryl pulled down his pants and help her on him, she slid down on him softly. He had his sore arm across his chest resisting not reaching out to touch her. She lifted her arms up taking her singlet off, putting herself on full display for him. His other hand helping balance on her hip, his eyes were taking her all in, he could barely move without his shoulder or arm being in pain. 'Go slow,'
Carol leaned down to kiss him, she took it slow, and loved him the way she'd been waiting to do for long time. For the first time since they married consummated their marriage in one slow love making session.
