Shelter Me(85)

By:Kathy Coopmans


“I forgive you, Vincent, so please forgive yourself.”

He searches my eyes to see if I am telling him the truth and his entire face starts to light up.

“When did you become so wise, girl?”

The six of us laugh together for a moment.

“My son is lucky to have you because you are one of the strongest people I have ever met. I am so proud of the woman that you have become.”

Placing a soft kiss on my forehead, he draws me in for another hug. He then turns to Luke and pats him on the shoulder.

“Let’s go fire up the grill, son, and feed your girl and my grandchild.”

The two of them walk away and I turn to Antonio who pulls me into a big hug as well.

“This baby better be a boy,” he teases with his crazy sense of humor. “I’m tired of getting my ass kicked at baseball by my little brother.”

When he puts me back down on my feet, I swat him on the shoulder as he starts to walk towards his brother and father.

“Get your fine ass over here, my friend,” says Bubba.

“You little minx, you,” he says as he turns me around and we watch what everyone is doing.

“I am so happy for you and Luke. No one on this earth deserves to be happy as much as you do.”

I smile, feeling extremely lucky as I stand there next to Camillia and look around at all of the people I love gathered in one place, but I can’t help but get a very strange feeling that something terrible is about to happen.

A while later, Luke and I finally get our daughter to ourselves for a couple of minutes when she goes into the house to change her clothes. I kneel down and give her the biggest hug.

“Happy birthday, sweetheart. You’re growing up so fast. I can’t believe you are seven years old.”

Being a typical child, despite being as smart and loving as she is, she whispers in my ear as if she doesn’t want anyone to hear her.

“Thank you, Mommy.”

She then turns to Luke, who lifts her up in his arms and peppers her face with kisses as he wishes her happy birthday as well. He carries her outside and announces to everyone it is time to open her presents. Everyone gathers around the table where there are more gifts than there are people stacked high. Lucy starts opening them one by one and to everyone’s surprise except mine, she reads the cards and thanks each person.

When she gets to the gift from Luke and me, she opens it and squeals with delight as she takes out the bright pink baseball glove with a matching helmet, batting gloves, and bat. She leaps into Luke’s arms and places the biggest kiss on his cheek and whispers in his ear her famous secret.

The day is full of laughter and love as we all celebrate Lucy’s birthday. Before everyone leaves, they all help us clean up. I am so damn grateful because all I want to do is submerge myself in a nice warm bath, relax, and then climb into bed.

Once all the guests have gone home, Luke and Lucy stay outside playing ball until it starts to rain. By the time they have everything picked up and inside the house, they are soaked. I get Luke a towel to dry himself off and then pick up Lucy and carry her upstairs to take a shower. I turn on the water and help her out of her wet clothes.

“Did you have a good birthday, sweetheart?”

“Yes, Mommy,” she says as I tickle her belly.

“Daddy said he has one more present for me and he has one for you, too, but he wanted to give it to us when we were by ourselves.”

I’m surprised by this but I don’t want to ruin how excited she is.

“Is that so?” I ask. “Well, then let’s get you all cleaned up so we can go see what he has.”

Lucy gets into the shower and I let her know I will be right back as I make my way down to our bedroom where Luke is changing his clothes. He has his back to me and I stand in the doorway admiring his perfectly sculpted body. I start moving toward him and he turns around just as he is pulling his t-shirt over his head. I bring my hands around and grab hold of his ass, hauling him into me as far as I can.

“One thing you need to know about a pregnant woman, Mr. Schavone, is that her hormones are so out of control that her sex drive increases,” I say with all the seduction in my voice that I can muster. “Right now, if our daughter wasn’t still up I would…”

I stop as I feel him thicken and press his erection into my stomach.

“You would what?” he asks.

“I would let you bend me over and fuck me so hard right now.”

“Fuck me, woman. I will make sure to get you pregnant as often as I can, then.”

I release my grip on his ass as I hear Lucy shut off the water and call out to me. I turn to walk away only to have him pull me back into him and whisper in my ear.

“Don’t worry, my sexy as hell baby momma. As soon as the birthday girl is asleep I will bend you over this bed right here and fuck you so hard you will be begging me to stop. Now go get our girl and meet me downstairs in the living room. I have something for the two of you.”
