A/N: Having a moment where I couldn't upload to ff still having trouble but am managing to copy and paste work rather than upload it but if there's an influx of chapters or a shortage of chapters you know why. Enjoy!
A few days passed since the ultrasound and Frankie and Andrew were basking in blissful parenthood. Frankie came down the stairs and stroked Bruno as she walked into the kitchen. Teagan was with Andrew in the lounge opposite dancing to a song on the tv, Teagan was laughing her head off.
Frankie smiled watching them, she made a coffee and leant back against the counter smirking. Teagan loved spending time with her daddy. When the song finished he dropped her down and ran around with her until he was worn out. He came over to Frankie and grabbed her hips.
"My turn." She smirked and kissed him.
"Oh god I don't think I have the energy." He laughed and she did too.
Pushing her arms around his neck she started to sway slowly as she rested her head on his chest. "Ahh that's more my pace." He laughed and stroked her sides.
"Baby?" She asked and he replied with a small grunt. "I was thinking about what are we going to do about a baby room for the new baby? Shall we share Teagan's room?"
"It's big enough." Andrew said and nodded. "I'd rather they be in the same room. When Teagan's old enough we'll move her into the room next door, then new baby can have that room when their older."
"Sounds good to me." She smiled and cuddled him for a little bit. He was still swaying when he thought she'd gone quiet. "You okay?" He asked and pulled back a little to look at her. "Frankie?"
She was sound asleep on him, he furrowed his brow and gently kissed her head. "Frankie?" He whispered close to her. She didn't stir he managed to hook his arm under her legs and picked her up taking her to the sofa. He gently laid her down and knelt down next to her. "Baby?" He stroked her cheek softly and kissed her.
She gently opened her eyes and sat up suddenly. "Woah!" He said and grabbed her shoulders. "Steady baby."
"What happened?"
"You fell asleep on me."
"Crap! Sorry…"
"You must be tired baby."
"I spoke to the doctor about it he says it's because I'm pregnant like my hormones make me extremely tired. He says it should go away the further into the pregnancy we get….sorry."
"Don't be, I like it when you sleep on me." He smiled and kissed her gently, "will you be okay if I go back to work?"
"Of course I'm fine. I'm going up to the barn."
"Oh hell no!" He said adamantly. "Frankie you're pregnant, you're not doing any heavy lifting."
"But…"
"Frankie!" He said firmly. "I mean it."
"But…"
"No!" He kissed her forehead and smiled.
She sighed and nodded. "Now you go steady, I've got some work to do but if you need me just shout." He kissed her lovingly and stroked her cheek softly before getting up and going to the office. Frankie sighed and sat on the edge of the sofa looking around.
A few weeks later Frankie sat at the breakfast bar and flipped through a magazine, she wanted baby bits but she didn't know the gender so she was struggling to find anything she liked. She shut the magazine when the doorbell rang.
Getting up she went to the door and opened it. An absolutely stunning young man stood there and smiled. "Hey." He had crystal blue eyes. "Wow… I mean hey… sorry." She laughed and shut up.
"I'm err new to the area and I'm looking for some part time work and I was wondering if there were any odd jobs around this beautiful home you would need help with?"
"Err no I don't think so." Frankie said and shrugged. "We've pretty much got everything under hand but if you give me your number I'll keep it incase anything does come up?"
"That'd be great thanks!" He smiled and handed her a business card. She read it and smiled. "Mike Lewis." She said as she read it. "I'm Frankie Kiernan." She smiled and offered her hand. He shook her hand and smiled, "nice to meet you."
Andrew came out of his office and walked around looking for Frankie when he spotted her at the front door laughing and chatting with an incredibly handsome young guy. He walked over and the guys demeanour changed completely.
"Hi." Andrew said protectively, putting his arm around Frankie. Frankie smiled at him and rested her head on his shoulder. "Andrew this is Mike he's new to the area and looking for work. Mike Lewis this is my husband Andrew Kiernan." The guy seemed to back up from practically being on top of her to a few steps back from the both of them. They shook hands and Mike started to back up. "Well err… thanks very much, sorry to bother you."
"No problem Mike you take care, nice meeting you." Frankie smiled and waved as he walked away. Frankie shut the door and put away his business card. "Never know might come in handy." She said and went to pin it on the notice board by the fridge.
Andrew turned her to him and wrapped his arms around her. "My sexy lady. I thought he was practically drooling over you."
"Thanks but I'm not drool worthy." She laughed.
"Don't be silly your drop dead gorgeous, my beautiful Frankie."
"Random topic but I've always wondered what kind of porn magazines priests would have under their beds? Like pictures of naked women on top of giant wooden crosses or something?"
Andrew laughed and nodded. "Yes we did actually, big pullout magazines with babes and crucifixes."
Frankie laughed hard and hugged him. "Maybe I could pose for you some day?" She asked him sweetly.
"Maybe I'd let you." He replied and kissed her neck.
"Maybe I could stand like this." She did a sexy pose and he laughed stroking her sides. She sighed and tickled the back of his neck softly. "When's your family coming in?"
"Next week baby." He said and smiled.
"I think we need to do a big grocery shop before then." She said going to their empty-ish fridge.
"We'll go Saturday, their coming Sunday morning."
"Sounds good." She nodded. He went back into the office and she followed him in. "Andrew? What do you think about maybe hiring Mike to finish up clearing out the barn? Maybe fixing it up?"
Andrew paused and tried not to sound jealous. "Maybe we should get someone else baby we don't know this guy."
"I just feel bad for him, I know what it's like not to be given a chance in life."
He softened and looked at her, coming across to her. "Okay baby, hire him but promise me one thing."
"What's that?"
"You won't fall in love with him and runaway." He said and Frankie laughed shocked. "Baby?" She questioned him but he was serious.
"Baby my eyes are on you, I'm carrying your baby, sex with a stranger is the last thing on my mind. I love you, only you, always." She said and kissed him lovingly.
"My sexy gorgeous lady." He wrapped his arms around her and lifted her up onto his hips. She wrapped her arms and legs round him as he fondled her butt. She leant in and kissed him, passionately running her hands over his chest. "Mmm… you taste sexy." She smirked and dropped down. She pushed him back into his office chair and came over his lap, straddling him and lifting her skirt a little so she could grind against him.
He moaned a little and smacked her butt playfully. She jumped a little but teased him more. Slipping down between his legs she took his growing pleasure out and proceeded to give the best pleasure she could offer.
Within a few minutes she was bringing him to the edge and he tried to stop her so they could make love but she wouldn't let him, he breathed hard as she did her thing, teasing him and bringing him to the edge many times before she finally let him release his ecstasy. He shook with pleasure and moaned loudly breathing heavy and moving as he could.
When it was over she kissed it and put him away, zipping him back up. He brought her up to him and kissed her hard, lovingly, stroking her all over. "Oh baby." He ran his hands through her hair and made her sit on his lap. He wanted to play but she grabbed his hands. "Later." She said through passionate kissing.
A few days later Mike was hard at it in the barn and Frankie came over. "Mike?" She called not seeing him."
"Hey!" He said from the loft.
"Oh hey!" She laughed and looked up at him. "Are you hungry? I've made a homemade pizza and I think I made enough to feed a regiment."
"Oh heck yeah! I love pizza!" He climbed down the ladder in just his vest, his muscles flexing through. Frankie nodded and waved him over.
He followed her to the patio door, taking off his boots. He came inside and she got a towel so he could wash up at the sink. He did and thanked her. "Would you like a cold drink or a beer?"
"Well a beer would be lovely thank you." She offered him a seat at the table and he sat, she went and got him and Andrew a beer.
"Baby, come join us for food." She said gently knocking his door and peering in. He nodded on the phone and she left him to it. Going back to the table she sat down and sliced up a couple of slices of pizza for him handing him the plate and the bowl of salad she'd made to go with it.
She took a small slice for Teagan and cut it into bits for her, putting it in front of her with some slices of peeled cucumber.
Frankie put a small slice for herself and some salad and started eating, smiling at Mike.
"This is amazing! The dough is great and the sauce, oh my god."
Frankie laughed and blushed a little. "It's okay not the best." Andrew appeared and came to the table.
"Hey." He said sitting down.
"Sir." Mike said and Andrew laughed. "Call me Andrew." He said.
Frankie pushed the food around on her plate and helped Teagan eat her pizza. Andrew started eating and looked at Mike, "how're you getting on up there?"
"Good, I've just cleared a big space at the back of the loft. It's a good job you're not doing it Frankie those hay bales are saturated with water from a roof leak, their heavy as heck. I've found a few interesting farmers tools though. I'm not sure but u think whoever owned the barn way back when used to hang pig meat in there, from the looks of the tools anyway."
The thought of pigs hanging churned Frankie's stomach and she jumped up, running to the bathroom. The boys watched her go and Mike looked worried to Andrew.
"Pregnancy sickness." He said simply and pushed away from the table getting up and going to the bathroom. He pushed the door and she was just cleaning up.
"Hey baby you okay?" She rested her head against Andrew's chest and said nothing. He gently stroked the back of her head and kissed her head softly. A few minutes later she smiled up at him and they returned to the table.
"Sorry, morning sickness." Frankie laughed a little as they all carried on eating. Frankie dished some more pizza up for Mike and Andrew and another small slice cut up for Teagan.
"I err… I have a herbal remedy that my partner at the time used when she was pregnant it worked amazing I'll bring you some over?"
"Oh that'd be great thank you." Frankie said. "I'm on tablets but their not working very well."
Andrew wasn't about to let Frankie take anything in her body some cock and bull cowboy said was 'herbal' but he'd have it out with her later about it.
"So are you a father Mike?"
"Oh, no, baby wasn't mine. I'm single and living alone. I live up the road you know where it splits off in two?"
"Oh down the old mill road?" Frankie asked.
"Yeah the old mill house."
"Oh wow I bet that place is beautiful inside I'd love to see it."
"Well why don't you? Come round to mine for dinner tomorrow? I'll cook you up something special."
"Oh err…" she could practically hear Andrew screaming no as he looked at her. "Oh I've got to get the place ready for guests we've got coming in Sunday, but another time I'd love to."
"No problem. I'm free any day." He laughed a little and finished up. "I best get back to work." He said and stood up. "Thank you for lunch it was delicious Frankie."
"No problem." She smiled and watched him go, rubbing the back of her neck.
"You aren't taking any of his herbal medicines Frankie." Andrew said when he was gone.
"Why not? He's harmless Andrew. Just being friendly."
"Because I said no and that's that."
"You're not my father Andrew…" she trailed, "well technically you are…" she laughed a little, he did too and softened, taking her hand.
"Please baby, I don't want anything inside of you that's not been medically approved and in a sealed container."
"Okay baby." She nodded and leant in to kiss him. He kissed her softly and stroked her face.
"And another thing." He said leaning back.
"Now what?" She asked laughing.
"I don't trust him, I have a bad feeling about him and I don't want you going up there alone or with Teagan. Promise me you won't."
"Baby…" she trailed rolling her eyes.
"Seriously Frankie there's something odd about a guy living alone in a big place like that. What's he hiding from us?"
"Baby what if he invites me again, I can't be busy every time."
"Then wait till I can come with you, please Frankie I don't want anything to happen to you or the baby or Teagan."
She sighed and nodded. He thanked her and kissed her softly. "And one more thing."
"Andrew!" She said shocked.
"I want you to eat more, you've barely touched food in days, I know you feel sick a lot but baby please?"
She looked at her plate then back at him and nodded. "I'll try." She pushed her plate away and he pushed it back. "Don't just try baby."
"Okay but not right now otherwise I'll be sick." She said and he sighed.
A few days later and it was Sunday morning, Frankie sat playing with Teagan as the doorbell rang out and the door swung open.
"And welcome to my mansion." Liam said and walked in, a young woman around Frankie's age followed in behind him and boy was she hot. Blonde as tall as Andrew wearing hot pants with heels and legs that went all the way up, slim wearing a white shirt with bare shoulders and very large breasts.
Frankie stood gobsmacked and Liam came in. "Mary-Jane Leary, Frankie Kiernan, Frankie is my brother Andrew's wife."
"Hi…" Frankie said shocked and shook her hand.
"Oh and this is her son Craig, he's 13 and not very talkative." Liam said as he pulled him in the door. Craig had earphones in and a phone in his hand.
"Nice to meet you." She said but Craig ignored her. Liam pulled his earphone out and threw a bag in his hand, "you're bedroom is the first on the right top of the stairs." Craig took his earphone and bag and went upstairs, to his room.
Liam and Mary walked away as he showed her the house. Connie walked in and Frankie gave her a shocked look. Connie shook her head. "Don't mention them, she doesn't shut up about them." Connie said regarding her breasts.
Frankie quickstepped into Andrew's office just as he was on his way out. "Andrew don't…" too late.
"Holy Jesus." He said seeing her.
"Well hello to you too." Mary said to Andrew with a wink.
"Errr…" Andrew tried shocked.
"Mary-Jane Leary. My brother Andrew."
"Err nice tits meet you…. I mean nice TO meet you."
She laughed and plumped them together. "They are pretty nice Andrew." Liam laughed and pulled her away to continue the tour. Andrew looked at Frankie shocked.
"I feel inadequate." She whispered to him.
"Their huge!" He replied.
After everyone had settled down and got unpacked Frankie ordered Chinese and they all sat around in the patio chatting and drinking. Mary looked very pretty in her facial features, Frankie thought, but she ruined it with her chest being so huge. She was a lovely person to talk to, very chatty and open about her breasts and other things…
Frankie handed a beer to Mary, Liam, Connie and Andrew and a coke to Craig. Teagan was wandering around the garden Bruno followed her like a lost puppy, keeping an eye on her. Snowy came and jumped on the patio table and sat watching the birds.
Putting her glass of water on the table she sat in Andrew's lap and he put his arm around her back to support her.
"So what are ye hoping for Frankie?" Connie asked.
"A baby?" Mary quipped. They all laughed and Frankie shrugged. "I'll be happy with whatever but…" she looked at Andrew then back at Connie. "I think we're kind of hoping it's a boy so we've got one of each."
"Do you just want two?" Mary asked.
"Well…" she laughed and looked to Andrew again. "I want more but we'll see." She laughed again and Andrew kissed her smiling.
"Aww you two are so cute together." Mary said smiling. Frankie rested her head on Andrew's shoulder and he cuddled her. "We are close, Andrew's my best friend, I adore him."
"That's sweet." She said smiling brightly.
Bruno barked and Frankie looked over, Teagan was getting too close to the lake and she jumped up jogging down to her.
"How old is she?" Mary asked anyone.
"Teagan or Frankie?" Andrew asked.
"Both." Mary chuckled.
"Frankie is 28, Teagan is 2." Andrew replied.
"How old are you?"
"45 almost."
"Wow that's a big age gap."
Andrew sat up as he saw Frankie look up. Bringing Teagan back up with her. Connie took Teagan off her and Frankie sat down on Andrew again.
"So Frankie you like well endowed older guys?" Mary laughed. Andrew shifted his package a little bit by moving in his seat.
"Well Andrew does have a huge penis and yes I love sexy older former priests. I love it when he takes me up the ass, you know cos that's what priests do apparently." Frankie got up and stormed off up towards the barn.
"Sorry I didn't mean any offence…" Mary called after her. Andrew shook his head. Connie piped up.
"She's very protective of her relationship with Andrew she doesn't like people talking about their age gap in a demeaning manner, not that you were dear." Connie said and Mary nodded looking to Andrew. "Sorry, I didn't mean to…"
"It's fine, I'll go cool her down." Andrew said getting up. Frankie opened one of the barn doors and sat inside picking hay out of a bale. Andrew leant against the door frame watching her. "Hey." He said and she looked at him then back to the hay bale.
He walked over and sat down next to her. They sat in silence for a while before he spoke. "Baby you know that I love you don't you?"
She didn't reply so he turned to her and brushed a stray hair out of her eyes. She shed a couple of tears as she yanked angrily at the hay bale, he leant in and kissed her tears with butterfly kisses.
"Hey don't cry, come to me." He said and held his arms out to her. She got up and came and sat in his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck she kissed him softly as tears mixed with their kisses. He rubbed her back slowly and brought her to him, holding her to his chest.
"You know that I love you don't you?"
"Yeah." She said and pulled back playing with the buttons of his shirt.
"So don't ever forget it because it doesn't matter to me or you about how old I am or young you are, all that matters is you and me and that we love each other, my beautiful lady, I love that you're protective of our relationship but don't let it upset you, cos when you cry, I cry." He kissed her softly and she kissed him back, stroking his jaw.
"My sweet, passionate, precious lady. I love you."
"I love you too and I won't let anyone try and hurt us. It hurts me when people assume things about our relationship, so what if you're 45 and I'm 28 the only people it should matter to is us and if she wants to start I'll…"
"Hey!" He grabbed her hands gently and held them tight. "Look at me." She did. "She can say what she wants, think what she wants and have the biggest breasts this side of Pennsylvania, it doesn't mean shit to me, I only care about you and you me, now come on, don't get yourself worked up I don't want none of my babies stressing." He smiled and stroked her arms.
"Would you prefer it if I was older, more experienced?" She asked.
"No, I love you at the most beautiful age you are. I love your beautiful eyes, your sexy body, your luscious lips, amazing personality and your fiery attitude. I wouldn't want it any other way."
She wrapped her arms around him and cuddled him, he held her lovingly stroking her back softly. "Now come on let's get back before they send a search party for us." He stood up and took her hand locking their fingers, stopping as they went to walk out the doors.
"And for the record I'm not adverse to a bit of ass play." She hit him and laughed as they walked back to the group.
A few days later and Frankie took Teagan down to the pier. She showed her the lake and then sat down on the deck chair to read her a book. She brought Teagan onto her lap and began to read to her. Teagan clapped and laughed as Frankie read her the stories in the big book of fairytales.
Andrew, Connie, Liam and Mary sat inside chatting whilst Connie finished making lunch, Mike was working in the barn and came down to the house, he tapped on the glass and Mary looked over. Going to the door she opened it and smirked, "well hello there."
"Wow…hi!" He said and drooled a little.
Andrew looked up and saw them chatting, getting up he went over and spoke to him. "Mike what can I do for you?"
"Well he just wants a glass of water." Mary said.
"I'll get you one." Andrew said and went to fetch him some water.
"So what's a pretty little thing like you doing in my neck of the woods?"
"Aren't you the big flirt." She laughed as Andrew handed him the water. Liam stood and came over draping his arm over Mary's shoulder, "how you doing I'm Liam!" Liam said shaking Mike's hand. "This beautiful babe is my girlfriend Mary-Jane."
"What a pretty name for a beautiful woman." Mike said and took her hand kissing it. Mary blushed and Mike drank his water.
"Lunch is ready!" Connie called. Liam turned and went back to the dinner table, Andrew rolled his eyes as Mary struggled to part ways.
"Well why don't we invite this handsome young man in for lunch?" She asked Andrew.
"Err…" he tried and Connie interrupted, "come on in we've got tons of food."
"Thanks!" He kicked off his boots and went to sit next to Mary. Andrew went and put the glass down watching Mike and Mary with one eye open.
"Craig!" Liam called. "Food!" Craig came down from his room with his phone and earphones clearly glued to him.
"Sit down bro!" Liam said and Connie looked up, "someone shout Frankie."
"I'll go get her." He said and slipped his shoes on. Shaking his head he walked outside and down to the pier.
Coming alongside Frankie he smiled as they both were asleep. Kneeling down he gently shook Frankie. "Baby?"
Frankie stirred and looked down at Teagan. "Sorry…"
Andrew took Teagan to his shoulder and leant forward a little to kiss Frankie. "Beautiful angel, come eat food is ready."
"Ok I'm coming." She stood up and straightened her dress. Taking Andrew's hand she walked slowly back up to the house with him.
Walking inside Andrew gently woke Teagan up as Frankie put the book away and went to the table sitting next to Mike. Teagan refused to wake so Andrew put her on the sofa and covered her a little before joining everyone at the table.
As they ate Mary gazed at Mike and drank in his attention. Liam either didn't want to see it or was blissfully ignorant but he never noticed them fawning over each other.
Andrew decided it wasn't his place to intervene in his brothers affairs so he left it, he didn't want another episode of what happened with Charlotte.
A few days later and it was a beautiful sunny day, Frankie dressed in her hot pants and a frilly off the shoulder top. Andrew, Connie, Liam and Teagan had gone to the park for a walk Frankie wanted to relax at home and of course Mary wanted to stay and talk to Mike.
Frankie made some fresh orange juice and slipped on some sandals to take it up to Mike. Going up there she couldn't see anyone, she looked around and went into the barn, flipping the flood light on she got a sight she wasn't sure she wanted to see, Mary bent over a barrel way at the back of the barn, with her breasts out her dress hitched up and Mike hanging out the back of her.
She stood there open mouthed for a moment not sure what to say. They both quickly dressed and Mike walked over to Frankie. "I err…"
"Frankie…" Mary said politely.
Frankie turned quickly and walked away. They both went after her and Mary grabbed her arm swinging her to her. "Frankie!"
"You're just a slut!" Frankie said and threw the glass of orange juice in her face. She stood there soaked and Frankie walked away back to the house. Mike ran after her and grabbed her by the hair, Frankie fell back towards him and he threw her to the floor.
"You think you're good bitch?" He said and kicked her hard in the stomach, she winced and shielded her stomach. "Stop! I'm pregnant!" She yelled he didn't care as he threw punches at her.
Mary joined in grabbing the hose pipe and spraying her with water until she was soaked through. Mike laughed and kissed Mary passionately. Frankie laid on the floor unable to move for the pain in her stomach.
Mike ran around laughing and picked up Mary before dropping her and kicking Frankie again.
The front door opened and Andrew walked in with the rest of the gang. "Oh my god!" Connie screamed. Liam and Andrew walked round the corner and watched as Mike kicked Frankie on the ground, just outside the patio doors. Luckily Connie was carrying Teagan, otherwise he would have dropped her.
Mike kissed Mary and she kissed him back, they both looked at the gang and he grabbed her hand. "Want some?" He laughed manically, Andrew's anger boiled through and Liam joined him as the pair ran after Mike, Mike suddenly lost his ballsy attitude when Andrew and Liam ran after him, Liam reached him first and started punching him.
Andrew got there and grabbed him throwing him to the floor, getting on top of him they both beat the shit out of him. "You touch my fucking wife again and I'll fucking destroy you!" Andrew said angrily.
Mary stood shocked and Connie put Teagan in the playpen and ran to Frankie, Frankie was holding her stomach moaning in pain, Connie put her hand on her arm. "Frankie where does it hurt?"
"The baby…" she sobbed and moved a little so Connie could see. There was blood coming from her privates and pooling around her. "Oh Frankie…" She said shocked and shouted up to Andrew.
"Andrew!" Andrew looked up to his mother at Frankie's side and she shouted at him, "Frankie's bleeding!"
Andrew jumped off Mike his knuckles bloody and ran across the yard to Frankie. He dropped down at her side and saw the blood. "Oh no, no…"
He grabbed his phone and called an ambulance. Picking her up into his lap he brought her gently to his chest and held her crying with her. "Shhh…" he whispered to her and she sobbed holding her stomach.
Liam finished beating the shit out of Mike and walked over to Mary. "Pack yer shit and get yer kid and get out you're not welcome here!"
"But…" she sobbed. He grabbed her arm and pushed her towards the house. "I don't want to know what you two have been up ta, get yer shit and leave!"
Andrew stroked Frankie's hair as she lay sobbing on the ground. "It's okay baby, I'm here." Andrew kissed her head and held her tight. Mike got up and staggered away running past the ambulance as it pulled up.
A few hours later and Andrew sat in the waiting room praying. He'd been in this situation before and he prayed Frankie was ok, if she lost the baby she would never forgive herself and he wasn't sure even his love would be enough to bring her back.
He closed his eyes and gripped his sore fists tight looking at the floor then up at the ceiling. The door knocked and a smiling doctor came in. "Mr. Kiernan?"
"Yes? Frankie is she okay? What about the baby?" He asked all at once.
"Mr. Kiernan calm down she's fine and the baby is fine. The bleeding came from a cut to her groin. We figured it must have torn as she fell as I doubt it would have come from being kicked. We've stitched it up and she'll be fine. She's got some bruising to her ribs and her forearms are sore from protecting her stomach but she's lucky, she hasn't got any serious injuries. Just cuts and bruises but I suggest for a week or two she takes it easy as the baby will have been jostled around, she's got a couple of bruises on her stomach from being punched more than likely, that's probably what caused her stomach pain. She's had an ultrasound and an MRI and we can't see any sign of worry. The baby's got a lovely strong heartbeat and looks to be moving and is quite happy in there. So don't worry!"
Andrew sighed heavily and cried a bit, collapsing back in the chair. "Thank god." He whispered and thanked the Doctor.
"She's just getting dressed and she can go home if you'd like to see her."
"Yes!" He said and got up following her out. Going into the room Frankie got up and ran to Andrew. He grabbed her and she jumped up on his hips, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him lovingly. He held her up and kissed her back, letting her down he grabbed her gently all over, touching her and stroking her. "Baby, baby, baby." He said and held her to him.
"I caught them having sex in the barn." Frankie said pulling back.
"I don't care. All I care about is you and the baby."
"I know but you need to tell Liam."
"Frankie he kicked her and her son out, booked her a taxi to the airport, she's on her way back to Ireland."
"Oh." She said and nodded. He kissed her softly and stroked her face. "Come on let's go home." After getting her discharge papers he took her hand and took her home.
Opening the front door Andrew stepped in and smiled. Connie and Liam stood up and went to him as Frankie followed him in.
"Well?" Connie asked worried.
"Everything is fine baby is growing healthy and strong, the bleeding was from a tear to her groin, apart from cuts and bruises she's fine." Andrew said.
"Oh thank god!" Connie said hugging her, Liam joined as did Andrew and they all hugged Frankie.
"I'm sorry to worry you all, he came at me from nowhere, I didn't have a chance to react." They all pulled away and Connie shook her head. "It's not your fault, that sick man!"
"If he ever comes here again me and Andrew will see to him."
"I dunno brother I gave him a good enough pasting." Andrew chimed in and laughed.
"He got the rough end of the boot with me too!" Frankie laughed a little and sighed. "Where's Teagan?"
"She's in bed." Connie said. "Which is where you two are going." Connie said and turned them both towards the stairs. "But…" Frankie said and Andrew laughed, "I think we're going to bed."
Liam locked up and Connie turned off the lights, everyone went upstairs and to their respective bedrooms. Andrew shut and locked the door, getting undressed to his boxers he went and laid on the bed, watching Frankie undress slowly.
She got down to just her panties and looked at her ribs and chest in the mirror. Bruises were starting to appear and she sighed. Coming over to the bed she slipped on one of Andrew's T-shirts and climbed into bed slowly. Andrew turned and pulled her back to his chest, wrapping his arms and legs around her protectively. Kissing her neck and shoulders, he linked one of their hands together and rested his head on her shoulder. Kissing it gently over and over.
Frankie turned out the light and snuggled back into him, he tightened his grip on her, wanting her to know she was safe in his arms again.
During the night Frankie started to dream about her dad, about the night on the boat, about her mum stabbing him… she could see the blood everywhere, she was there watching it all unfold piece by piece, he screamed in pain and agony, climbed to the top and grabbed a life vest putting it on and jumping overboard to get away, Frankie stood and watched him but then she felt a cold hand on her shoulder and she turned around to see her mum stabbing her in the baby belly, stabbing over and over, Frankie screamed and screamed but no sound came. Suddenly she came at Frankie and Frankie whacked Andrew round the head, fighting her way out of his grip and screaming, sitting up and clambering off the bed, she jumped up and ran to the other side of the room falling back against the wall breathing hard.
Andrew was so shocked, he woke in a dead sleep to several whacks around the head and Frankie flapping around wildly. He rubbed his head and looked to Frankie. "What happened?" He asked putting the light on, thankfully it didn't sound like she'd woken anyone else up.
"I had a bad dream…" she said breathing hard and closing her eyes tightly. "Sorry."
He got up and went over to her, pulling her into his chest and kissing her head. "It's okay, you scared the heck outta me but it's okay." He laughed a little and picked her up. Taking her back to the bed and dropping her down gently. This time he turned her to face him and brought her as close to him as he could, stroking her hair back over her ear.
Pulling the covers up over them slightly he snuggled close to her and stroked her face softly. He kissed her slowly over and over, before resting his cheek against hers and whispering I love you in her ear. She felt so safe with him and loved, he was her protector and she adored him for it.
The next morning was the morning of their big date night at the theatre to watch the show Annie at the opera house on opening night. Frankie was way too excited, not only for the show but for her date night with Andrew, a chance for just the two of them to spend together without being parents for the night.
Frankie got her dress out and admired it as Andrew laid in bed watching her smiling. He couldn't wait to see her in it. She hung it back up and went back to bed, climbing over the top of him she leant down to kiss him.
He touched her sides and kissed her back. He loved seeing her happy it made him happy, "thank you." She kissed him a couple of times and stroked his cheek. He stroked her sides and hips kissing her back.
"You're welcome beautiful, I'm looking forward to seeing you in it, and out of it." He smirked and she did too. "How about I give you a preview?" She said and pulled off the T-shirt, he brought his hands up to her chest and played with her breasts. "Perfect." He said tasting them.
She kissed him and he flipped her over onto her back, he ran his hands over her slim figure and beautiful breasts, he pulled away her panties as he made his way down her body…
Later on after making love and taking a shower, Frankie pulled on some hot pants and a T-shirt and stood in front of the mirror doing some basic makeup. Andrew slapped her butt as he went past her, she slapped his arm for making her jump and he grabbed her, taking the makeup out of her hands and tossing it down. "You don't need that. Beautiful goddess."
She kissed him and he stroked her butt where he'd slapped it. She stroked his back and stared at him. "I love you." She said softly.
"I love you too baby." He kissed her lovingly and took her hand, leading her out their bedroom and downstairs. The family hung out for the majority of the day, Connie made dinner for her and Liam, Andrew was taking Frankie for dinner before the show at a very fancy black tie restaurant.
So around 4pm Andrew told Frankie they needed to get ready for the car to pick them up at 5:30pm. Frankie got excited and went to shower and get ready, Andrew followed after her.
After her shower and doing her hair and makeup, Andrew went downstairs whilst Connie helped Frankie put on her dress. Around 5:30 the car pulled up and Connie came out the room. Andrew was dressed in a black suit and tie, waistcoat and everything was tailored. Connie went downstairs and beamed. "You're going to drop your jaw Andrew, she's absolutely stunning."
"Frankie?" Andrew called he couldn't wait any longer, Connie got her phone out to take photos. Frankie came out the room and for Andrew it was like seeing a real life goddess walk in front of him, his jaw did open and he stared as she came down the stairs, even Liam couldn't take his eyes off her.
She had a very light pale blue prom dress on that flowed beautifully outwards from her waist, the top was lace with floral patterns, that faded down into the dress, it had straps that sat tightly round the tops of the arms, there was fine gem details she had a necklace and earrings Andrew had brought for her and her charm bracelet on, her heels and clutch bag matched her dress with fine jewellery detail, her hair was full long curls down to her shoulders. Her tiara sat beautifully nestled on her head. She looked like royalty, she was absolutely stunning.
"Hey." She smiled as he took her hand. He stared at her dumbfounded, he tried to speak but he couldn't take his eyes off her.
"You looking bloody stunning Frankie." Liam said. "You look beautiful Frankie you really do, Andrew's a lucky man." Connie said.
"I'm the lucky woman, to have such an amazingly handsome and smart, kind and wonderful husband. I'm the truly lucky one." She said and Andrew still stood staring, he couldn't believe how absolutely beautiful she was."
"Baby believe me, I'm the lucky one. You're absolutely…jaw dropping gorgeous." He leant in and kissed her softly. The car papped its hooter and Andrew took her arm and led her out.
"Enjoy you're night you two." Connie said. "Don't bang her in the bushes!" Liam called. Andrew rolled his eyes and they both laughed. Getting in the car they drove away.
Forty five minutes later and they were at their first destination. The chauffeur dropped them off with plans to collect them at 7:30 for the show that started at 8pm.
Walking into the restaurant Andrew confirmed their name and they were seated at the quiet little table by the window, overlooking a river. The moon was high in the night sky and it shone beautifully off the water. Andrew sat Frankie down before seating himself.
"Wow this place is very high end Andrew, there's a lot of posh people here."
"Tonight you're one of them my beautiful Frankie."
"I don't care about being posh Andrew so long as I'm with you."
"You'll always be with me my most beautiful wife."
She blushed and he took her hand across the table, kissing it softly. She smiled lovingly at him and returned to reading the menu that was given to her by their waiter.
"Wow the food sounds delicious." She looked at the prices and about swallowed her tongue. "My god Andrew it's expensive."
"You're worth it." He smiled and looked at the menu himself.
"What are you having as a starter?" Frankie asked. He thought about it, "I think the prawn salad sounds lovely." He said, she agreed, there was no way she was having anything with liquid going down her dress.
For the mains Frankie chose braised duck breast and Andrew chose lamb. For dessert they both chose to split a chocolate bar mousse. Whilst they waited for their starter Frankie reached out and held Andrew's hand across the table. He stroked her hand with his thumb and stared at her.
"You're absolutely incredible Frankie."
"And you my love." She replied. "Thank you for what will be one of the most amazing nights of our life."
"If it starts and end with you Frankie it's going to be amazing."
She blushed and held his hand as she looked out over the river. He could see she was thinking and churning something over in her mind and he wondered what. "Baby?" He asked.
"I keep thinking about the nightmare last night and what it meant, why was my mother trying to kill our unborn baby?"
"Baby it was just a dream, a collection of terrible things happened yesterday and it was all your minds way of processing it and dealing with it. You were very brave baby… if we'd have been a few second later I'd have probably never forgiven myself. Mind you I'd be in a prison for murder too."
"Did the police get back to you?"
"Not yet." Andrew said and shrugged. "All I know is they'd arrested him but apart from that nothing."
Their starter arrived and was beautifully placed in front of them. They both tucked in with small chat between mouthfuls. The food was delicious. When they came and took their empty bowls away, Frankie stood up and Andrew did as well out of curtsey.
"I'm just going to the little girls room I'll be right back." She smiled and he kissed her hand. "Don't be long." He said and watched her go, her beautiful dress flowing as she walked.
He sat down and sighed happily, the night was going perfectly just how he wanted it to. He had so much love for this woman, he couldn't believe this was really all down to Daniel Houseman and him insisting he was coming to investigate her stigmata.
Though what happened was tragic he wouldn't change it. He met Frankie, fell in love, got married, made so many memories, had a child with another on the way. His life with her was his dream, he thought his dream was to be a priest but that changed the moment they locked eyes in that salon.
When she came back he stood and waited for her to sit down before he did. "Even the bathrooms here are like royal bathrooms." Frankie laughed and he did too, he sat staring at her across the candlelit table and everything seemed to melt away, right now there was just him and her and the rest of the world was gone away.
He laughed at her stories as they ate dinner, he joined in with tales of his younger days as they tucked in, happily retelling memories. She laughed and sat there after dinner playing with his hand across the table. He stroked the back of her hand with his thumb, lost in her beauty.
"Andrew?" She laughed and shook his hand. He shook himself and smiled. "Sorry I was lost in you for a second." He said and she blushed.
Dessert came and it was big, they placed it in between them with two spoons, Frankie picked a spoonful for him and he did her, they fed each other and Frankie laughed as he got a little on her nose.
"Sorry baby." He chuckled and she wiped it off. "No problem."
They continued to eat the dessert til it was almost all gone, but both of them were full and they left a little. Andrew raised his glass of champagne and Frankie raised her glass of orange juice, they clinked together and drank to them and their life together, so happy and in love.
Andrew paid for the meal and took Frankie's arm as he led her back out to the waiting car and they got in, the chauffeur driving them to the opera house to watch the Annie play.
Andrew presented the box VIP tickets and they were led down the red carpet into the opera house. Frankie took a seat in their private booth and watched on as the place filled with people, she was so excited. Andrew didn't mind the show, he was doing it for Frankie and to see her so excited and loving every second was simply amazing to him.
Frankie sat on the edge of her seat as the show started with a big musical number, the lights dimmed and a little girl appeared in a window frame singing 'the sun will come out tomorrow.'
As soon as she started singing Frankie began to cry, it reminded her of herself at that age. Obviously not the same situation but that feeling of wanting to be loved. Andrew was ready for it and got out the tissues from his pocket handing her one and pulling her into his shoulder. She wiped her tears as the song played out and Frankie sat glued to every second of the play. Singing along with every song.
The intermission gave her time to compose herself and for them to grab drinks before returning for the second half. She sat there and watched again glued to every second, singing her heart out as most people in the audience did with it all. Eventually it came to an end and Frankie cried at the ending. She'd seen the film before but the play was so real and so beautiful.
When it ended Andrew took her backstage and they got to meet and mingle with the cast and have their photos taken. It was absolutely perfect, she couldn't have wished for a better night. They left the opera house and Andrew asked for the chauffeur to drop them off at the pier for a short walk.
Getting out the car they walked the length of the pier out to the end and looked out across the river. "Thank you baby. Thank you for such a wonderful evening, for a beautiful experience and a delicious meal." She said as they leant against the railing. "I don't know what I did to deserve you or to make you fall in love with me but I'm so glad you did. I adore you Andrew my gorgeous man. I'm so thankful to have your unending love." She said and turned to him, kissing him lovingly.
He kissed her back and stroked her cheek holding his gaze into her beautiful eyes. "I'm the lucky one baby. All I want is to make you this happy every day of our lives. I live and breathe for you Frankie, my beautiful heart. I adore you." He kissed her again lovingly and she smirked as she suddenly climbed up the pier railing and sat on top.
He grabbed her and held her hips tight. "Baby! Don't fall! Come down!"
"Shhh…" she whispered kissing him and making out with him as she sat there. He came between her legs and held her protectively to him, making sure he wouldn't let her fall. He ran his hands up her sides and they made out a bit more hotly.
"I want you." She said to his ear and jumped down running her hands through his jacket around the hem of his trousers. He brought her to him wanting to pick her up but knowing he couldn't in the dress. So he swooped her up into his arms, his arm under her legs. She wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder as he carried her quickly back to the car.
They held hands in the back of the car staring at each other, she kept copping a feel of his manhood and he kept rising to attention. They laughed and kissed a little but the ride was over soon, Andrew paid the driver and tipped him well. They got out the car and headed inside. The place was dark it was gone 1am and Andrew locked up, walking towards the stairs he pulled Frankie gently with him, taking her hand they walked down the hall and into their bedroom closing and locking the door. Andrew flipped the small mood lighting on, he slowly started to undress, taking off his jacket and shoes, socks and trousers.
Frankie took off her jewellery and tiara, setting them all down she turned around and Andrew stood in his waistcoat, shirt, tie and boxers. She went to him and slowly undid his buttons. He kissed her softly as she did and she laughed a little.
"I can't see what I'm doing." She giggled as he kept distracting her to kiss her.
"That's the idea." He said and stroked her arms laughing into her lips softly.
She pushed his waistcoat off and tossed it aside. She grabbed his tie and pulled him in to kiss her, he did so with eagerness, he wanted to tear her clothes off but he didn't, he wanted the moments to last. She undid his tie and tossed it aside, taking off his shirt. That went as well.
Next she pulled down his boxers as she went down on him, tossing them aside she kissed his proud member and returned to his lips. She turned around and watched him over her shoulder as he slowly undid the zip of her dress. He kissed her shoulders slowly and her neck. She smelt so immensely fantastic, like vanilla.
The dress slipped down and she stepped out of it, he picked it up and laid it over the chair in the corner. He turned back to see her standing in sexy lingerie a sexy lace see through type strapless bra, matching lace thong and with suspenders and lace stockings.
She couldn't have looked more sexy if she'd tried and yet she felt bashful and shy. She stood with her arms crossed across her front her head tilted into her shoulder. He went across to her and looked into her eyes.
"I want to touch you but I'm afraid I'll break you, Frankie you are so gorgeous." She blushed more and he gently ran his fingers over her arms up to her face. "You sexy, sexy woman. I need you." He whispered and she reached up to him. Gently pushing him backwards she sat him on the edge of the bed and started to dance for him as she slowly took off the sexy lingerie. Her hips swayed to him and she pushed her body into him grinding against his manhood through the little clothes she still had left on.
He sat looking up at her getting hotter and hotter for her, her teasing edging him on. She sat in his lap as the only thing left to come off was her thong. She ground against him some more and stood, taking his hands to her thong, he gently pulled it down and she stepped out of them and tossed them away. She was now completely naked as was he and she went down on him, spreading his legs for her to come between.
He watched her and breathed hard as she enveloped him. Their love making began and it eventually led to them having full on sex. She took him every way she could and that he wanted, he climaxed three times during the night, she lost count of her own climaxes.
He spent every last ounce he had in him but still wanted her, he wanted her over and over but he was exhausted and she was too. They dropped to the bed, covered in sweat and sex and wrapped each other up in their arms and gently fell to sleep in the early hours of the next morning.
Waking up Frankie slowly opened her eyes and found herself on the floor. She sat up and looked for Andrew, she saw him facing away from her on the bed. "Baby?" She asked, he woke and turned over, laughing a little.
"What are you doing down there?" He asked. She shrugged.
"I don't even know, I must have been exhausted." She laughed and he came over to her.
"Come here." He took her hand and pulled her back up on the bed. She clambered in and straddled his waist. They were both naked and she could feel him between her thighs. She leant down and kissed him laughing a little as she played with him.
"Hmm…." He sighed as he took her hands and kissed her softly watching her on top of him. "You beautiful sexy lady."
"You handsome, smart, sexy, beast." She replied and giggled. He ran his hands over her body gently playing with her breasts, leaning up to her he sucked on them a little massaging them.
"We should get up baby." Frankie said running her hands through his hair as he sucked and played with her breasts. She moaned a little and he looked up at her.
"No fair." He said and turned her onto her back.
"Andrew?" Frankie asked smiling up at him.
"Oh no…" he said and hid his head in her chest.
"What?" She laughed.
"I can feel a priest question coming on…"
"Just a small one." She said and laughed, he shook his head.
"Go on…"
"Well you know when you said you struggled with not having sex when you were a priest, did you ever you know…?"
"What?"
"Well you know?"
"Have sex?"
"No…this." She said grabbing him and playing.
"Oh, no baby, that was as much a sin as having sex."
"Did you after you met me?"
"Well I didn't really have a chance everything happened so quickly. Plus I was staying in the church it would have been rather awkward." He laughed a little leaning down and kissing her. "But rest assured Frankie I have many times since we've been together, to the thought of you always."
"Maybe you can show me sometime…"she asked slightly blushing. He came down to her and kissed between her breasts, kissing her stomach back up to her lips.
"Would you like that?" He asked curiously.
"I think I really would." She smiled and looked away, embarrassed. He turned her head back to him and kissed her softly.
"Then I'll show you." He brushed her cheek and she stroked his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck he laid against her chest and she cuddled him close.
