Chapter 26
Titan
We get homework done and the kids run up to their rooms to change their clothes. They're changing into what my woman calls their play clothes. We step out onto the back deck and wait for them to come down.
"I've got Church tonight at 8 pm." I say to my woman.
"The twins' bedtime's at 7:30 pm during the school year." She responds.
I'll be here to help with bath and bedtime. The kids come out of the sliding glass door and head right for the swing set to play. While they're playing we go back into the kitchen. My girl starts to rummage through the fridge and freezer.
"What are you looking for babe?"
"I'm looking to see what I can make for dinner." She replies.
I watch as she pulls out some peas and green beans from the freezer. She then opens the fridge and pulls out butter, milk, eggs and chicken. She goes to the pantry and pulls out a packet of dry ranch, rice cereal, and a box of noodle sides. I'm shaking my head trying to figure out what the hell she's making.
"Sit and watch honey." She says to me with humor in her voice.
So that's what I do. I pull out my phone and put some music on. She turns the oven on and grabs a couple of bowls down from the cabinet. Then grabs a baking dish from under the counter. She grabs the cooking spray from the spice cabinet along with some salt, pepper, garlic salt, chicken seasoning, and the measuring cup. She cracks the eggs in a bowl and beats them like making scrambled eggs. In the second bowl she puts the cereal. I watch as she empties the ranch packet into the cereal along with the seasoning and stirs it up. She takes the chicken and dips them into the egg and then the cereal. She puts the chicken into the baking dish.
"Will you cover it with aluminum wrap and stick it in the oven? I need to wash my hands." She asks.
"I would love to help babe." I say to her.
She gives a little laugh and shakes her head and calls me a smart ass. She grabs the bowls and throws the cereal away and rinses out the bowl with the egg and washing her hands. She gets out the disinfectant and a paper towel and washes the counter down. She throws the paper towel away and puts the bottle under the sink and washes her hands again. I think she might be a little OCD. I go back to my seat and watch as she grabs three pots and puts them on the stove. In the first pot she puts the peas with butter and seasonings and puts the lid on, the second pot she does the same with the green beans, the third pot she starts making the noodle side. I turn away from her periodically to look outside to check on the kids. I have to say watching her make dinner for us is unbelievably sexy. I know I think everything about her is sexy or turns me on but god damn if this shit isn't making my cock hard. I thought I wouldn't ever get this ending with her. Now to know that she's in fact real and here with me; I find that everything she does turns me into a horny fucking bastard. She comes up to me and wraps her arms around my waist from behind me.
"Would like a beer honey?"
"I would love a beer babe" I say to her.
I turn my head so I can get a kiss before she walks away. She grabs a beer for me and she gets herself a glass of wine. She goes to the stove and stirs all the food and is going toward the back door when someone knocks on the front door.
"Go get the kids babe and I'll get the door."
She says okay and disappears into the backyard. I go to the door and open it. Zeus and Shadow are there.
"Y'all smelled the food didn't ya?" I say with a laugh.
The both laugh and walk in the door and head to the kitchen just as she comes in with the kids. The twin's see their papa and race to him. My woman looks at her dad and raises her eyebrow.
"You better do what your momma told you to do or I'll be in trouble along with you two." He says to the twins.
They laugh and go to wash up for dinner.
She goes back to the kitchen and we follow behind her.
"Grab out plates and put them on the table please." She asks me.
I grab the plates and I notice that Zeus has the silverware and napkins. While Shadow's carrying two glasses with milk and three beers. We set the table and go back to see what else we can help with. She hands me the baking dish and Zeus has the two bowls with the vegetables. Shadow has the noodles. The twins come down the stairs and take their seats at the table and the rest of us follow suit. We take our portions and I skeptically take a bite out of the chicken. The chicken's good as hell. I start to eat with gusto and I see everyone else digging into their food also. We listen to the kids tell us about their day.
"What did y'all do today? Jamie asks us.
We each tell them something we did that's kid friendly.
"Who went grocery shopping before we got here? I would like to thank them?" She asks as we are sitting around the table.
"I emailed a list of food I saw in your cupboards and pantry to your dad. I asked him to have someone go grocery shopping for us." I respond.
"I asked S.J. to grocery shop for y'all and put it away." Zeus tells us.
"Thank you for doing that dad."
"Anytime Baby Doll." He looks at her and replies.
"Did y'all come over for dinner or do you need to talk about something?" I look at them and ask.
"We know baby doll's schedule for dinner. We came here because we wanted to eat what she cooked. She's a freaking great cook." Zeus says sheepishly and Shadow is shaking his head agreeing with him.
I've got to agree with them. I was skeptical about what she was making tonight; but that shit was fire.
"Babe the food was great." I let her know.
"Thanks honey. I'm glad you liked it."
"It's bath time. Give hugs to papa and Shadow and go pick out your pajamas y'all want to wear. I'll be up in a minute." She tells the twins.
"Since y'all came for dinner. Y'all get to do the cleanup. The dishes in the dishwasher are dirty so y'all just have to put dinner dishes in it. I'll start it later before I go to bed." She says to Zeus and Shadow.
She kisses her dad and hugs Shadow and goes up the stairs.
"I'll be down after I get Jamie out of the shower and tuck the twins in bed." I say to them both.
"Don't worry about it. Take your time." Zeus says to me.
I nod and head up the stairs to Jamie's room. We get showers and baths done and we each read the twins one book each and hug and kiss them. We tell them we love them and good night and turn on their night lights. My woman and I walk hand in hand back down the stairs.
"I shouldn't be more than an hour." I tell my woman.
"Take your time honey. I'm going to get in the tub and soak. When do you go back to working at the Mining Company?"
"I can do most of my work from the office here. If I need to go in I'm only a quarter of a mile down the hill." I respond.
"It'll be nice having you home sometimes. You should still go to the office and make an appearance. Will you show me the basement tomorrow?"
"I'll show you the basement after it gets finished and not a moment before babe. I gotta get to the clubhouse babe. I'll be back in a bit. I love you." I say to her and bend down to kiss her lips.
We pull into the Clubhouse parking lot and get off of our bikes.
"Fuck if baby doll can cook her ass off. Did you get any of the taco salad Saturday night?" Zeus says to me.
"I did. That shit was good. Who made it?" My dumb ass asks.
"Your women made that shit." Zeus says as the both laugh.
I think to myself, no wonder they came over to eat tonight.
"We're going to have to start working out more with her cooking like she does." I tell them.
We all laugh as we walk into the Clubhouse and go straight to Church and take our seats. Zeus grabs the gavel and hits the table telling us Church is in session.
"Brothers, Titan is more than likely not to be the father of Marley's baby. If any of were with her from Christmas to New Year's you need to get up with Thorpe. You'll need to get a DNA test. She'll more than likely not tell the father. She was trying to pin it on Titan. If any of you happen to be the dad, we'll have your back. She won't be pulling any disappear acts with the kid. Now on to other business. Remember dues are coming up; get with Titan or Killer to pay. Killer, Have the girls have paid their rent?" Zeus asks.
"All the girls have paid their rent. I've paid the regular bills also. The taxes are coming up for all the businesses. We're up this quarter so we're in a good spot." Killer responds.
"What about Leelee's and Harlan Vinyl?" Zeus asks.
"They're also standing well." Killer says.
"Is business in the good brother?" Zeus asks Steel.
"Business is fucking booming Pres." Steel says to Zeus.
