I put my hand on Jesse’s knee. “He’s the other tattoo artist that we met when Allie got her tattoo,” I said trying to catch him up.
“Oh! He plays in a band? What kind of music? I love live bands,” I say excitedly looking back at Shane. He looks over at me and smiles. “Well now. They are a Classic Rock band, the crowd’s really love them and they get them all revved up when they play. They play over at Barton’s Bar. I know the owner personally if ya wanna go sometime and see them. I can get ya in free.” He winks at me.
“Is that the place that was closed down for so long on the corner by the Coffee Shop?” I ask. Shane nods.
Allie screeches. “Oh! We have to go! When do they play next?” Shane gives Allie a wide grin. “They happen to play tomorrow night, if ya wanna go.”
Allie looks at me then proceeds to look at Jesse. I look at Jesse and give my cutest pout face. Shane and Jesse both start laughing.
Jesse gets up to clear the table. “Well, I guess we’re going out tomorrow night,” he says matter of fact. Allie and I both jump up and down in our chairs.
Chapter thirty-four
The next night we head for the bar. It is freezing out and starting to snow. I hope it’s the last snow of the winter since we only have a week left until spring.
We get to the bar and there is a short line to wait in. When we get up to the front of the line Jesse is ready to pay for us to get in but Shane appears out of nowhere by the bouncer.
“Nope, they get in free, anytime they come. Got me?” He tells the bouncer. The man nods and waves us in.
“Follow me,” Shane says and leads us to a big round booth that has a ‘Reserved’ sign on the table. It’s to the left of the stage with a great view. “Best seats in the bar.”
Allie smiles at him and I swear I saw her batting her eyes at him. Nah! Must be the low lighting.
We all sit and soon a waitress comes to the table in a very low cut tank top, her breasts almost spilling out, with the bar's name on it and the shortest shorts I have ever seen. She looks at Jesse with a sexy grin, and she winks at him. I look at her and glare. Jesse orders our drinks giving her a smile back. I turn my attention to him and glare. What the hell? After the waitress leaves Jesse returns his attention back to me. I am still glaring. “Ahem, what’s wrong, baby?” He says casually. I turn my head so I don’t look at him. “Oh, nothing.”
Jesse chuckles while putting his arm around me, pulling me close. He leans down and whispers, “Baby, don’t. I only have eyes for you.” Then he kisses me on my head.
I turn to him and kiss him back on his mouth. When I pull back I let out a big sigh and turn my head. “I’m sorry. I guess my hormones are already going a little crazy,” I say with a little laugh.
His arm tightens around my shoulder. “Hey.” He puts his finger under my chin and turns me towards him. “Your hormones may be a little crazy but you aren’t. I love you and there is no one else in the world that I would rather be with than you.” He flicks my nose with his finger. “Know that. Trust that. Believe that.” I just sit there with tears in my eyes looking into his.
“What’s going on, you two? Quit with the lovey dovey eyes,” Allie laughs. “The band is going to be on soon.”
Jesse and I give each other a quick kiss and turn back to enjoy our friends. “So, how is it you can tell the bouncer to always let us in free, Shane?” Jesse asks.
“Ahem, well, I actually own the place,” Shane says quietly. “It was my old man’s but he decided to move to Florida and sell it. So I bought it from him. I fixed it up and changed it a little, started having bands and it’s just taken off.”
“Wow. That’s great. I’m impressed,” Jesse says as he reaches over and slaps Shane’s shoulder. Shane smiles. “Thanks, man.”
A loud scream makes me jump. Apparently the band is coming onto the stage. Geez. I think my heart skipped a beat.
Tucker saunters out first with an electric guitar hanging from its strap around his neck. He’s followed by the other three members of the band. They all have tattoo’s in different areas of their bodies, piercing’s and the drummer has a Mohawk.
Tucker stands in front of the microphone and screams, “Hello Barton’s Bar!” The screams are so loud I swear I lost my hearing for a minute. “How is everyone tonight?” He yells. More deafening screams. “Are you ready to party with us?” Now there is a crowd of women and a few men that are standing on the floor in front of the stage. The women are screaming and jumping up and down in excitement.
Tuck turns his head to look at the rest of the band and nods and the drummer hits his sticks a few times and the music begins.
Their music is great! I don’t know this song. I wonder if it’s an original of theirs. We sit and listen to the band play for an hour. “You all ROCK!” Tuck shouts into the microphone. The crowd roars. “We’ll be back in a few minutes. Gotta get some drinks. Be ready to PARTY when we come back!” The crowd screams again. Oh, my God! I am never going to be able to hear again!
Making his way to our booth, Tuck gets mobbed by some women. He stops to chat here and there with them. Finally, he slides into the booth by Shane.
“Whew! Great crowd tonight,” he says looking around at us. Shane pats him on the back. “You really bring them in for us, kid. Business has really picked up since you all started playing here. I appreciate that!” He smiles at Tuck.
Jesse reaches out his hand to Tuck. “Jesse. Great music. Are they your songs?” Tuck smiles and nods and shakes his hand. “Tuck, nice to meet you. It’s just something I do in my spare time. I get these words in my head and have to write them down.”
Shane laughs, “Yeah, kind of bizarre. He will be working on a tat on someone and all of a sudden he stops, jumps up and runs to get his pad and pen.” He laughs again. “Good thing we have nice customers who don’t mind him not coming back to finish for 20 minutes or longer sometimes.”
We all laugh with Shane. Jesse looks at me and winks then he looks at Tuck. “Do you ever hire out or play at functions?”
Tuck shrugs his shoulders. “Well, no one has ever asked that before.”
Jesse smiles. “Well I own a company who helps organize charity functions for mega corporations and I know a few who would love your music. Who knows, there might be some good publicity at some of those and some people who might be interested in your band. Would you and your band be interested?”
Tuck looks at Shane but talking to Jesse. “Not sure my boss would let me take off to travel.” Shane smiles at him and puts his hand on his shoulder. “Tuck, my man, if you need to travel just let me know in advance so Buck and I can cover for ya. I don’t see any problems with that.”
Jesse is smiling at Tuck as he turns his attention back to him. “Well I guess I will make some calls and see where that goes.”
Tuck looks concerned and says, “Um, maybe I better get with my band first. Make sure everyone is up on this, but I think they all will be. Let you know?” Jesse smiles and nods.
I start feeling ill about an hour later. I’m freezing then I am so hot. I don’t know if it was the loud music, the heat in the bar due to the crowd or what.
“Baby, are you ok? You look really pale.” Jesse asks in my ear. I feel like I am going to be sick so I just shake my head a little. Jesse puts his arm around me. “Ok. You’re making me nervous. Baby? Can you answer me?”
I jump up and walk very fast around the corner and into the woman’s bathroom. I barely make it into a stall and start throwing up. By the time I am almost done relieving the entire contents of my stomach, I hear Allie behind me talking quietly with soothing words, rubbing my back and holding my hair away from my face.
I stand but am very dizzy. Next thing I know I am in Jesse arms and he is kissing my head. “Allie can you get her purse and bring it to my car? Thanks.” I hear him talking, but I am so tired that it’s getting hard to keep my eyes open.
I am in the ‘right before you wake up’ state and I can feel something cold and wet on
my forehead. When I open my eyes Jesse is sitting beside me on the bed with a frown on his face. I reach up and rub the frown lines on his forehead. “Jesse,” I croak, my voice is hoarse, “What’s wrong?”
He takes the wash cloth off my forehead and puts the back of his hand on it. “You just about passed out at the bar, do you remember?” My eyebrow’s crease over my eyes as I shake my head.
“You’ve been running a little fever but you really have been making me nervous with how hard you’ve been sleeping. You feel a little cooler now. How are you feeling?”
I yawn big and smile. “I think I feel better, just really tired. What time is it?” Jesse looks over at the clock on the night stand. “It’s almost 5:00 in the morning.” He smiles. I can see how tired his eyes are.
“Babe, thank you for taking care of me but come to bed. I’m ok, I promise and you will be right here with me.” He nods, gets undressed and climbs in bed beside me. I roll over to him and wrap my arm around his waist. I kiss his chest and snuggle into him. He takes his hand and feels my forehead again then leans down and kisses me there. I barely close my eyes before I am asleep.
Chapter thirty-five
I called Stella the next morning and told her I had a bug and probably wouldn’t be at work Monday. She told me not to worry about it and not to even think about coming in on Tuesday unless I felt 100% better and to let her know.
So I laid around all day Sunday on the couch napping on and off. Jesse took care of me, bringing me soup, 7-up, Kleenex and lots of kisses. Every time he came in to bring me anything or just to check on me he was always kissing my forehead, my cheek or the top of my head. I feel so loved and cared for.
By Monday afternoon, I pretty much feel back to normal and am so bored I am about to scream. I am sick of watching TV, so I go upstairs and creep down the hall towards Jesse’s office. I open the door slightly and look around the room. Since Jesse’s desk faces the window, I can only hear his fingers tapping on his laptop.
Quietly, I push the door open and walk into the room until I am behind him. I wrap my arms around his chest and start kissing him on his neck. He bends his neck to the left to allow me more room.
“Mmmmm,” I hear him moan. “Shouldn’t you be resting?” I keep kissing as I move around him. He pushes his chair back and I climb onto his lap, straddling him. He places his arms around me putting one hand on my lower back, the other on the back of my head.
“Mmmm, no,” (Kiss) “I’m done,” (Kiss) “Resting.” My mouth moves down to his chest as I move his shirt open so I can kiss his flesh. He moans as I unbutton his shirt further and continue my kissing trail over his left pec then the right and circle his nipple with my tongue.
The hand on my lower back moves around to the front and up my body until he is massaging my right breast. I moan this time as I nip on his nipple and suck.
“Damn I wish you hadn’t gotten dressed today,” he says as he tries to pinch my nipple through my bra. I sit up and in one quick moment I pull my t-shirt over my head and remove my bra, discarding them on the floor. He leans down and begins sucking and biting my nipple. I throw my head back and moan loudly. My long hair is laying on his arm that is around my waist now.
I bring my head back up and watch as he moves his mouth to my other nipple to give it the same attention. I reach down to rub his cock through his jeans, and I can feel it growing with every move of my hand. He lets go of my nipple with a pop and plants his mouth on mine while his hand grabs the back of my neck pushing my mouth into his harder.
Never breaking our kiss he lifts up from the chair and carries me to our bedroom, laying me across the bed. We are kissing furiously while helping each other to remove the rest of our clothes.
We stop kissing as he leans up from me looking deeply into my eyes, searching them. “Baby, we can’t hurt the baby doing this, right?” He asks concerned. “Or you either, right?”
I look up at him and brush his fallen hair out of his eyes and smile. “No, honey. This won’t hurt either of us, I promise. Just please, please love me. Make love to me, please,” I whisper.
That was all the encouragement he needed. As he pushes his cock into me in one hard thrust we both moan out loud. “Baby, you feel so good,” he moans.
We rock together as he leans down sucking on my nipple while his hand makes its way down to my clit, rubbing circles and giving it the pressure I need. My skin is flushed and my muscles stiffen. As my climax is reaching its peak the muscles inside squeezes his cock as my orgasm takes over my body.
My high starts to dissipate but then Jesse pulls my legs up and over his shoulders allowing his cock to push in even deeper and it starts hitting my g-spot with every thrust. This seemed to make my orgasm last forever but before it ended another orgasm overtakes me as Jesse thrusts harder. He stops, his body shuddering and slowly moves in and out of me as we ride through our bliss together.
I watch him close his eyes with his head tilted back, his body twitching. He is gorgeous and he is mine.
After his breathing slows he leans over me and kisses me softly. He looks into my eyes with love swimming in them. I wish I could take a picture of him this way. Beautiful.
Smoothing my hair with his hand. “You have the most beautiful cum face I have ever seen. I love watching you as you cum.” I smile and laugh a little. “Um, just how many cum faces have you seen?”
He looks at me seriously. “Baby, I haven’t been with very many women, honest. And never, never without a condom until you, only you.” My mouth drops open. “Wow! Really? Ever?” I ask.
His eyebrows gather together. “Yes, ever.” Then his frown turns into a smile. He leans over and kisses me, our mouths moving in time with each other. He pulls back up looking at me tenderly. “I love you so much, Cassie. Marry me.”
What? Huh? Did I just hear him right?
I looked at him, cocking my head in confusion.
“Uh, what?”
His smile is all teeth as he looks at me. “Marry me, Cassie. I love you. Marry me. We’ll see if we can buy this house or hell we’ll build a house however you want it, whatever you want. I love you and our baby. We can have more kids. We can get a dog!”
Oh my! He’s getting carried away.
I start laughing and cover my mouth with my hand quickly. He looks down at me and frowns.
“No, babe. Honey. I’m not laughing at you. Well, ok, I am a little but, honey. You’re moving a little fast and getting a little carried away here,” I say quickly. I cup his face in my hands. “I love you too. More than anything. But can we slow down, just a bit? We still haven’t found out the test results and I feel weighed down with that right now. It’s not that I don’t want to marry you but can I have just a little time,” I ask holding up a hand with my finger and thumb just a little bit apart.
He smirks at me. “Well, ok, I guess I can give you a little time.” He holds his finger barely to his thumb. Smiling he caresses my face. “I will wait as long as you need me to as long as you marry me in the end. I love you more than my life.” He leans down and kisses me.
Rolling off me to his side of the bed he brings me with him. I snuggle in my favorite position. Sigh. This is my heaven. I fall asleep warm with the feelings of being loved and content.
~*~*~*~
Weeks have gone by and it’s the day of my doctor’s appointment for the DNA test and ultrasound. I am a nervous wreck. Once we are in the room, I see that they had everything all set up to draw blood from each of us.
I got a little light headed. I know, I’m a light weight. And I am going to give birth? Oh, my!
Laying spread eagle on a bed with other people in the room is not the most pleasant experience. We are looking at a screen off to our side waiting for a glimpse of our baby.
As Dr. Zellar moves the wand over my gelled belly he keeps letting out hmmm’s and ahhh’s. What the hell? All I can make out on the screen is nothing. I can’t tell what I am looking at and all I see is a monitor that looks like it has bad rece
ption.
The doctor stops and looks up at us. “I have to ask. Do either of you have a history of twins in your family?” Jesse and I quickly look at each other. Jesse coughs. “On my mom’s side, yes. My grandmother was a twin, why?”
The doctor grins and laughs. “Well, because there are two babies in there.” He points to the screen at what I think are two little pea’s. “If you look very closely here you can make out two sacs, which means they are Fraternal Twins.” He looks at the nurse. “Please turn up the monitor volume.”
We all get very still and listen. “Can you hear them? Two heartbeat’s almost beating in unison. You really have to listen but there are two of them,” the doctor states.
I swallow hard and look over at Jesse. He is grinning ear to ear. “Baby, are you ok? You look a little pale,” he asks me.
“I. I.” I look back over to the doctor. “Are you sure?”
He nods and smiles. Jesse pulls his chair up as close as he can get to the bed and is squinting at the screen. “Can you tell the sex of the babies yet?” He asks.
“No, sorry. They are too little at this stage of the pregnancy to be able to establish their sex. We should be able to determine that in your second trimester. If we are lucky we will be able to tell as early as 14 weeks along but it could be any time after that. It depends also on when or if they cooperate by being in positions where we can tell,” he laughs.
“That’s amazing,” I said looking at the screen.
The nurse proceeds to print off little snapshots of our babies and hands them to me. Jesse leans over my shoulder staring at them.
“Well,” the doctor says while standing, “I am going to leave you so you can get dressed. Since you’re having twins I will need you to set up two week appointments starting two weeks from today and then down the road we will switch you to weekly. With more than one baby we need to keep a closer eye on them. Congratulations again.”
