Chapter Five

Abby

Levi and I help gather dirty plates and silverware, disposing of them in the plastic tub by the kitchen door, while AJ and Sawyer straighten chairs and tables. Nick’s parents covered tonight’s dinner, even though Nick and Meghan balked about it. They wanted to do it all themselves, but couldn’t turn down the offer when his mom pulled out her puppy-dog eyes.

“I think that about covers it,” I say to my sister, making sure we leave the room in the back of the restaurant the best we can.

“Looks good to me. The manager said they’ll collect the linens after we’re gone,” AJ chimes in, with one final glance around.

“I say we hit it,” says my husband of a year.

It’s still so weird to say that word. Husband. It wasn’t that long ago that he was merely my friend. My best friend, actually. The one I secretly watched from afar, waiting until my stupid crush was over. Fortunately, it never ended. In fact, it only intensified, and the best part was his feelings did too. We went from friends to lovers in a matter of weeks, and we never looked back.

Oh, it wasn’t all wine and roses, though. I mean, men are stupid, so of course, he almost messed it up. We were able to work out his blunder, and it was the best decision I ever made.

Well, besides saying yes to a certain question he popped, while down on one knee.

Glancing his way, I see that twinkle in his hazel eyes that lets me know he’s probably thinking something dirty. The man’s mind is always in the gutter, but that’s okay. I usually benefit greatly from his naughty thoughts. Between that wicked tongue and the apa piercing, I’m a very well satisfied woman.

And often…

“Are you okay? You’re all flushed,” AJ says, a look of concern mixed with her grin.

“Oh, yeah. Fine,” I reply, looking around the room once more to conceal my burning face.

I feel his presence before he wraps his arms around me, pressing his front to my back. He’s already hard, which doesn’t surprise me. The man is a walking hard-on anytime I’m in the room. “What are you thinking about, Mrs. Morgan?” he whispers in my ear, his warm breath tickling my earlobe.

“Nothing,” I reply, and even to my own ear, it comes out all breathy.

“Mmhmmm, nothing. I bet it definitely is something,” he says quietly, flexing his hips discretely and sliding his cock against my rear.

“Well, maybe it is something.”

“We should go. Then I’ll be able to do something about it.”

“Are you two talking about sex? Abby has a look on her face like she’s about drop to her knees and worship at the altar of Levi,” AJ says loudly, drawing the attention of the staff milling about and cleaning up the room.

Again, cue the blush.

“Stop it, Grandma,” I tell my older sister.

“Did someone say sex?” Sawyer says, joining our group with a sleeping baby boy on his shoulder.

“He finally fell asleep?” she asks, checking on her infant son, sleeping in his father’s arms.

“Finally. If we hurry home, we can get about an hour of Mommy and Daddy alone time before his next feeding,” Sawyer adds, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively at my sister.

“You know damn well that the moment we lie him down on his mattress, he’s going to be wide awake again,” she grumbles, holding in a yawn.

“Then maybe we should drive around for a bit. You know, check out the local parking spots…” he suggests.

“We’re not parking with our son, Randall. You’ll just have to keep it in your pants until we’re home and he’s passed out again,” AJ says.

“Is he sleeping better yet?” I ask.

“Nope. He’s wide awake at night. There isn’t enough coffee in the world to help us get through the day, some days,” she replies.

“I fell asleep last week at my desk before baseball practice. I had to pretend to be looking over the opponent’s roster to cover up the fact that my starting pitcher just busted me sawing logs at school,” Sawyer adds.
