Fuck, fuckidy, fucking hell!
“Daddy,” he says as I bend down and pick him up.
“Hey Champ, have fun at Grandma’s?” I ask and Mom scoffs.
“How many times have I told you, it’s Nanny not Grandma. You two look happy,” she says with a knowing smirk.
Sarah hides into my chest and cuddles into Ethan.
“Yeah, well we thought you were coming at midday,” I say and hand Ethan to Sarah.
“Honey, it’s nearly one I gave you extra time,” she says smirking even wider now.
“Crap, really?” Sarah asks and Mom nods.
“Crap, crap, crap,” Ethan says and I can’t help but laugh.
Sarah and Mom both look at me sternly.
“No Ethan, that’s a bad word,” Sarah says and he chuckles and starts smacking Sarah in the face.
“Yeah, I forgot to tell you he’s been repeating everything we say and do, your sisters taught him how to Macarena last night,” Mom says and I roll my eyes as Sarah laughs.
“Macaweena, macaweena,” Ethan says as Sarah puts him down and he runs off.
“They must be so pissed that he’s a boy,” Sarah says, ushering Mom inside and shutting the door. We laugh and head down to the kitchen.
“Want a coffee, Mel?” Sarah asks and Mom nods.
“So did you two have a good night off?” Mom asks and I look at Sarah and she’s smirking.
“Yeah, thanks Mom, it was nice to have some alone time, once I finally got her to stop with the freaking laundry,” I say and Mom laughs.
“Oh well, at least you got some quality time in, and anyway I love having Ethan, so does your father, and your sisters. He makes us laugh, so much,” she says as he comes running down the hallway.
“Nanny, Nanny,” he says running up to her. She picks him up and sits him in her lap.
“Momma and Daddy did poo poo in their bed,” he says making me laugh as Mom looks at me strangely. I look over at Sarah who looks mortified.
“Why do you say that, Ethan?” Mom asks.
“’Cause their sheets, all brown,” he says and then it clicks.
“Oh, that’s just chocolate mousse,” I say and Mom smirks at me and looks at Sarah, who is purposely not looking at either of us.
“And why would there be chocolate mousse in your bed CJ?” she asks with the biggest smirk.
She knows why, she’s just asking to embarrass Sarah, and it’s working.
“It was for dessert if you know what I mean?” I question and Sarah huffs making Mom and I laugh a little louder.
“What’s funny?” Ethan asks and I scruff his hair.
“Go tell Mommy you want some chocolate mousse,” Mom says putting Ethan down. I smirk at her sometimes she can be really evil.
“Mommy, can I have chwoclate mousse?” Ethan asks, pulling on Sarah’s robe.
“No, honey there’s none left, but Daddy will make you some later, okay?” she says and Ethan runs off again.
“I hate you both,” she whispers and we both start laughing again.
Mom stays for a coffee and she tells us all about how Ethan went over night and how the girls fussed over him like they always do, and how Dad was trying to teach him to play with the tool set that they bought Ethan for his birthday. Dad seems to think that when Ethan grows up, he’ll be working at ADF with his Pop.
Not likely!
He’s going to be a chef like his Dad and we can run our own restaurant together one day.
* * *
We arrive at Aiden’s for dinner with Callie and Mike to start to discuss some of Sarah’s bat shit crazy ideas.
It’s going to be an interesting night.
We walk up to the front door and ring the bell. Mike answers soon after.
“Hey guys.”
“Hey Mike, congrats,” Sarah says, leaning in to kiss his cheek.
“Congwats,” Ethan says and Mike chuckles.
“Thanks Sarah and Ethan.”
Sarah rolls her eyes. “Sorry Mike, he’s saying everything we say these days,” she says and walks inside with Ethan on her hip.
I shake Mike’s hand and walk in behind Sarah looking at her gorgeous fuckable ass in those tight jeans.
“Hey guys,” Sarah calls out as we walk into the living area and out onto the deck.
“Hey!”
“Auntie Jeni,” Ethan says as he struggles in Sarah’s grip.
“Just be careful, remember what we said about Auntie Jeni’s belly?” Sarah questions Ethan, he nods and continues to struggle.
She puts him down and he runs over to a heavily pregnant Jeni, who looks about ready to burst. She bends down and picks him up and places him on her lap.
Aiden walks over. “Hey dude, how’s things?” he asks slapping me on the shoulder.
“Yeah, not bad. Nearly had Mom and Ethan walk in on us this morning,” I say, knowing that if we were any longer at answering the door Mom would’ve let herself in.
Aiden laughs. “That would have sucked the poor kid would be scarred for life with the antics you two get up to.”
I laugh. “Yeah, no doubt, something for you to look forward to. Jeni’s not far off now, hey?” I ask and Aiden looks terrified.
“Yeah, she’s due any time now, I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m putting on a brave face for Jeni but really I’m shitting myself. I don’t know the first thing about being a father, all I know is I don’t want to be anything like my father,” he says and I actually see a hint of fear in his eyes.
“Hey, it’s not too bad. The first few weeks suck, but once you’re in a routine it comes second nature. You’ll be a great Dad, Aiden, I see how you are with Ethan. Just be like that with your son and it’ll be fine,” I say and slap him on the shoulder.
“Hey Chris, come see our baby chicks,” Callie calls out and I smile and walk with her and Ethan follows along with the rest of them.
We spend the night with our friends and Sarah tells Callie all her crazy ideas and Callie being the lovely woman that she is, didn’t dismiss the ideas, but said they would revisit them at another time. Aiden, Mike and I stood back and tried not to laugh as we watched my beautiful wife make a complete fool of herself. Doesn’t matter, we all love her anyway.
We said our goodbyes as Ethan was beyond exhausted after playing with the baby chicks all night, and we headed home. We tucked him into bed and went and sat in the living room to unwind and watch Game of Thrones. Sarah cuddles up into my side and I wrap my arm around her tightly. She suddenly sits up and looks at me biting her lip like she wants to say something, but is holding back.
“What’s going through that head of yours?” I ask and she exhales and looks me directly in the eyes.
“So, just hear me out before you say anything, okay?” she asks and I instantly worry.
“Okaaay?” I say drawn out with concern etched in my voice.
“Right, so, I was talking with Jeni today and I was watching her and how beautiful she looks when she’s pregnant and she was telling me all about how the boy is kicking and she can feel him move and all that stuff. Sooo… I was wondering what your thoughts are for us trying to have another baby?” she asks and bites her lip again.
I was waiting for something like this to come up. Sarah is always touching Jeni’s belly and doting on her and I knew eventually this scenario would play out. I don’t know how I feel about it, I honestly haven’t really thought about it much. I always knew we would have more kids and I guess Ethan is two and a half, so now is probably the right time.
“Okay, you’ve been quiet for too long, just say you don’t want to and put me out of my misery,” she says, folding her arms across her chest. That little display of disappointment is enough to make my mind up.
“No, I was just thinking, babe. Okay, I’m in, let's try for another baby,” I say and her smile shines so bright as she lunges forward, embracing me tightly, so tightly I can hardly fucking breathe.
Holy crap, I just agreed to another kid.
&n
bsp; Oh, well, guess that means more sex for me. I smile and she leans in kissing me.
“Thank you Chris, I’ve been thinking about it for a while, you’ve just made me so happy,” she says and she cuddles into me again.
Just think, lots of sex, lots of sex, lots of sex!
“When do you want to start trying?” I ask and kiss the top of her head.
“Tonight?”
It would actually be great to have another baby. I’m completely on board.
“How long will it take, to get pregnant, I mean?” I ask and she shrugs.
“I guess not too long, we got pregnant with Ethan really easily and we weren’t even trying, so I can assume it won’t be too long once the pill is completely out of my system.”
I love her so much and I’d do anything to make her happy, so if she wants another baby, then that’s what I am going to give her.
“Well then let’s get cracking,” I say standing up and pulling her with me. She laughs and turns off the television. I bend down, lifting her up over my shoulder and walk us down to our bedroom.
* * *
I wake with a start to my cell ringing. Sarah groans loudly and covers her head with a pillow. I look over and notice that it’s Aiden calling.
“Dude, it’s like three in the morning! Are you guys okay?” I ask.
“Sorry, yeah, it’s just Jeni’s gone into labor and I’m… freaking out man,” Aiden says quietly, but sounding shit scared.
“Jeni’s in labor? How long ago did it start?”
Sarah uncovers her face and looks at me excitedly.
“She was having back pain last night and she said she couldn’t sleep so she went to have a bath. I stayed in bed ‘cause, you know, it was like one a.m. and then I heard her moaning, so I raced in there and she was hunched over in pain. I mean what kind of husband does that? Let’s his pregnant wife go to the bathroom alone while he sleeps in bed! I’m a fucking jerk Chris,” Aiden rambles and sounds a lot like he’s freaking out.
“You’re not a jerk, Aiden. Jeni knows how much you love her. Just calm down and stop talking to me and go be with her. You need to hold her hand. I’m not going to lie, dude, it’s gonna scare the crap out of you. But you have to be strong and support her and whatever she needs. Oh, and don’t take it to heart when she tells you that she hates you and screams expletives at you, it’s just the pain talking,” I try to reassure him.
“I hate seeing her in pain, I’m so weak,” he mumbles.
“Aiden pull yourself together, I know you’re scared, but think about Jeni. She needs you and you have to grin and bare it. It’s gonna suck, but dude if I can do it, you definitely can. Now shut the fuck up and go back in there. Where are you now?” I question.
“Just got her to the hospital, they’re hooking stuff up to her, you know monitors and shit, she sent me out to get skittles,” he says with a slight chuckle.
“Skittles?”
“Yeah, trust her to want something weird while she’s in labor. Oh, hey, I gotta go, she’s having another contraction,” he announces and then hangs up.
I laugh and put the cell down on the side table.
“So, how far along is she?” Sarah gushes looking ecstatic.
“Umm, I’m not sure he never actually said, but he sounds like shit the poor guy, he’s all over the place. Believe me, I know how hard it is,” I say, shaking my head at the memory.
Sarah slaps me on the arm. “Are you kidding me? How hard it is for you? What about the mother who has to push a watermelon out their va jay jay? You think the father’s task is harder than the mother’s?” she berates and I chuckle which only makes her cute face crinkle with rage.
“No baby, I know women have it way tougher, but just think what it’d be like if the roles were reversed. It’s the scariest fucking thing you’ll ever see as a man, watching the woman you’re madly in love with, in so much pain. It’s shit, but of course you have it worse,” I explain while she nods and lies back down on the bed. I lay down next to her and she cuddles into my side.
“Just think that will be us again soon, I hope,” she mumbles running circles on my chest with her finger.
I smile and kiss her head. “And are you prepared to go through all that pain again?”
“In a heartbeat,” she confirms.
“I love you.”
“I love you too, and seeing as we’re now both wide awake and Ethan is fast asleep, and we are on the topic of babies, I think we should try as often as we can, if you know what I mean,” she insinuates by raising her eyebrows up and down.
I smile and lean over her pushing my body into hers and her hand rushes to the back of my head, pulling my lips to meet hers and then she takes hold of my bottom lip in her teeth and tugs hard.
Fuck!
I smirk and plunge my tongue into her mouth as my cock grows rock hard for her again.
I will never get tired of fucking her.
Chapter Eight
We walk into the hospital, Sarah with a bunch of flowers and a balloon and me carrying Ethan on my hip. He’s so obsessed with the ‘It’s a Boy’ balloon that I’m not sure Jeni is actually going to be able to keep it. I told Sarah that Ethan would want it, but that’s beside the point. We walk into the maternity ward and find our way to Jeni’s private room.
“Now, baby boy, remember no jumping on Auntie Jeni, okay,” Sarah reminds Ethan and he nods.
We walk in and spot Mike and Callie. There are flowers everywhere and the smell smacks me in the face as I walk in. Aiden’s sitting in a chair half asleep and Jeni’s nursing their boy.
“Hey guys, congratulations,” Sarah gushes as she rushes in leaving Ethan and I behind.
“Hey,” Jeni murmurs as she looks up at us.
“We got here as soon as we could, how are you feeling, cause you look like shit?” I say.
“Shit, shit, shit,” Ethan calls out making me laugh.
“Chris!” Sarah berates me.
“What, Jeni knows I tell the truth, don’t you Jen?”
“Yeah, it’s all good, Sarah, I know I look like crap. I’m so freaking tired and completely and utterly exhausted, but it’s all worth it for our little man.”
“So what’s his name?” Sarah questions and Jeni looks up at me with a smile on her face.
“Brody Michael Christopher O’Connell,” she says with a smirk, looking straight at me.
I’m shocked to the spot. I have no idea what to say so I look at Mike, who’s smiling at me while I stand here with my mouth open wide.
“I know, it’s an amazing feeling having someone named after you, isn’t it, Chris?” Mike states and I instantly feel my eyes brim with tears.
“I ah… I don’t know what to say?” I mumble as I walk toward Jeni and Brody.
“Say thank you, you dick wad,” Sarah berates.
“Dick wad, dick wad,” Ethan calls out and I shake my head at him.
“Bad word, Ethan,” I say and Sarah grimaces at me. Normally I’m the one teaching him the bad words.
“Thanks guys, you don’t know what this means to me,” I try to hold back the tears as I look down on Brody’s cute little face. Ethan starts to wriggle and I put him down and he runs over to Aiden and jumps in his lap.
“Hey little man,” Aiden pulls him into a hug and turns him to sit in his lap.
Sarah sits on the edge of Jeni’s bed and gushes over little Brody while I pull up a seat next to Aiden and Mike.
“Thanks for naming him after me dude, you really didn’t have to do that you know.”
“Hey, after everything you’ve done for us, it was the least we could do,” he says as Ethan fiddles with Aiden’s three day growth.
“How you doing?” I question him and he raises his eyebrows and huffs.
“I don’t know how people do this more than once. I’m exhausted and I didn’t do anything. It was Jeni, who did all the work. She was amazing and I’m totally in awe of her.”
I smile because I know that exact feeling. “It
’s a crazy thing to witness hey?” I can’t help but notice Mike’s face. He has a saddened look plastered all over it.
I wonder what that’s about?
“It’s the scariest, most beautiful thing I’ve ever been a part of. But it’s all worth it for that little man right there. I never knew I could love anyone the instant I met them, but with Brody, I don't know, I think I’m going soft,” Aiden chuckles.
“Nah man, you’ve always been soft,” I joke and Aiden rolls his eyes.
A nurse walks in and checks on Jeni and Brody and then she looks up to Ethan and smiles. “Hey, little man, how are you doing today?” she asks.
“Shit, shit, shit,” Ethan calls out loudly, making me laugh and Sarah blush.
“Oh my God, Ethan, no. I’m so sorry he’s repeating everything we say—”
“It’s okay, I know how it is, I have a three year old at home who won’t stop saying ‘for Christ sake’, it’s very embarrassing when your partner’s parents are devout Catholics,” she chuckles and Ethan luckily doesn’t repeat that one.
We laugh and she walks back out as Sarah walks over to me holding Brody. She sits in my lap and I can’t help but get giddy. I knew I had agreed to wanting another baby, but sitting here with Sarah and Brody just cemented it for me. I can’t wait to have another child with the love of my life.
“He looks so much like Aiden,” Sarah coos as she strokes Brody’s cheek.
“Did you just call your best friend's child ugly?” I tease looking directly at Aiden.
He smirks and punches me in the arm.” F-off dude, my son is smoking hot,” Aiden retorts and I chuckle as Sarah and Jeni roll their eyes at us.
“I think it’s illegal for anyone to call a new born, smoking hot Aiden,” Sarah jokes and he nods his head and winces.
“Yeah, you’re probably right. But you have to admit in all seriousness, that we’ve made a damn cute kid, right?” Aiden asks.
“Yeah, he’s adorable, great job dude, you did good!” I say and pat him on the arm. I can tell how proud he is of his son, and of Jeni. The way Aiden keeps looking at her with nothing but adoration in his eyes. Well, I guess that’s what their relationship is all about, you can tell they complete each other, I know because it’s exactly the same with Sarah and me.
