Beth

After the mind-blowing sex with Melanie, we decide to go check on Shawn and Abbigail. Melanie quietly opens the door and to both our surprise, they were passed out with Shawn still deep inside Abbigail. Melanie and I leave the room, quietly closing the door. I look up at her and notice the tears in her eyes. I take her hand and bring her back to the living room.

I make her look me in the eyes and the tears roll down her cheeks. They weren't tears of jealousy, they were genuine. My only thoughts were of how close it was that she and Shawn were supposed to be on a plane that crashed, leaving no survivors. If I hadn't over stressed about the bad feeling, they'd be dead right now and we wouldn't have done what we just did.

I look away as tears of my own fall rapidly down my cheeks and Melanie takes me in her arms. Uncontrolled sobs cause my shoulders to shake violently as I hug my arms to my stomach. My baby could have lost their father and it was hitting me hard. Melanie did her best to console me, but I needed Shawn. Despite her best efforts, Melanie just wasn't able to help me.

A few minutes later, Shawn walks out carrying Abbigail who was sobbing, holding onto Shawn. Shawn whispers to her and she nods against Shawn's shoulder. She sits with Abbigail not letting go and Shawn does her best to calm her down. I've only ever known Melanie to get her calmed down. "I need Melanie," she says between broken sobs, pulling away from Shawn.

I climb off her lap and Melanie taps her shoulder. She scrambles over to cuddle with Melanie and shutters a calming breath. "She woke up, sobbing from a nightmare about us in the plane crash," Shawn chokes quietly and gently pulls me down in her lap. "I know we all agreed to this, but I felt like I was cheating when I woke up to someone who wasn't my wife."

"Looks like you survived the beast Abbigail," I joke, wiping my eyes.

Her face turns bright red and feels Melanie's face for expression. Melanie smiles and laughs when Abbigail turns away from her. "Babe, I'm not jealous. It was a nice distraction for all of us," Melanie says in a soothing tone and kisses Abbigail's forehead.

"This wouldn't have happened if you'd been on that plane," Abbigail chokes in broken sobs and hides her face in Melanie's neck. "Waiting over an hour to hear about Beth and the baby didn't hurt as much as it did when I heard the news about your flight. It felt as if someone had ripped my heart out on stomped on it.

"Shawn was an amazing distraction, but the fact that you were meant to be on that plane...," Her sobs were making it difficult to continue speaking.

Melanie looks at us, not knowing what to do. I couldn't see passed the tears and move from Shawn's lap. She gets up, whispering in Abbigail's ear and she nods vigorously. She kisses Abbigail's head and heads toward the bathroom. I shrug at Melanie when she looks at me wondering what was going on.

Moments later Shawn returns and looks between me and Melanie. "Do you trust me," she asks in a soothing tone and we both nod. Without another word, she scoops Abbigail from Melanie's lap and heads back towards the bathroom.

Abbigail

Shawn brings me to the bathroom and the smell alone was calming and relaxing. I let her strip me down and she helps me in the warm bath. Moments later she's climbing in behind me and rubbing my body down with the softest washcloth I've ever felt. "This helps Beth when I can't get her to calm down. We already had one scare with Beth and the baby, I don't think I can sit through another one, even if it isn't mine," she says in a soothing whisper and I feel myself relax against her front.

"When she finally made her move on you, I told her it was about time. I listened to her brag about how much she wanted to tell you about her feelings, or how she'd secretly watched you change in the locker room and imagined it was her doing it," I say quietly and let out a content sigh. "Thank you for this."

"You're welcome," she says in a soothing whisper, rubbing my stomach.

"I told you she was probably sitting in a bath with her," Beth says softly. "See, she's already calmed down, no need to worry."

"Thank you Shawn, I never would have thought of this," Melanie chokes quietly.

"We had enough of a scare yesterday when Beth collapsed from stress, I didn't want to see you go through what I did," Shawn says quietly as she continues to rub my body with the warm lavender water.

I could feel my eyes getting heavy with sleep and let my body slump against Shawn. I let out a content sigh and the last I heard before drifting off to sleep was Melanie whispering, "You're putting her to sleep."

I woke up feeling relaxed in the bedroom. I reach out and notice I was alone until the faint smell of orchids fills the room. "How are you feeling," Melanie asks softly, helping me sit up.

"Relaxed, I want to thank Shawn. Where is she," I ask in a husky whisper from sleep.

"She's cooking in the kitchen," Melanie says as she helps me out of bed, I tend to be a little clumsy when I first wake up.

"Is that what smells so good," I ask, breathing in the delicious smell of garlic and parmesan cheese. "How did she know I've been craving pizza and garlic knots?"

"Beth is craving it too," Melanie says with a light laugh.

"Oh," I say with a laugh.

"You look well rested," Shawn says softly and I walk in the direction of her voice.

I hug her and she returns it. "Thank you," I say quietly and she kisses the top of my head.

"You're welcome," she says softly. She lets me go and says, "I hope you don't mind pizza and garlic knots, Beth is craving it."

"Me too," I say with a smile.

Shawn

Abbigail was turning away from me and wavers on her feet, falling back against me. I steady her and she brings a hand to her forehead. "Easy," I say in a soothing whisper as Melanie comes to her side.

"Do you need to go back to lie down," Melanie asks with worry in her tone and eyes.

"No, just a little dizzy spell," she says in a wavering whisper. "It'll pass after I eat something."

I bring over two cups of chamomile tea for the girls, hoping it would help them relax. I place Abbigail's hand on the mug handle and she thanks me. I give Beth hers and give her a kiss. "Will you take a bath with me after dinner," Beth asks as she bites into her garlic knots with a moan. "Babe these are good, better than at the restaurant. I hope you know I want more of these."

I laugh at her reaction and hear Abbigail moan too. "I think I'm in heaven," she says as she chews her garlic knots. "I have to agree with Beth. Will you please make more?"

"Already planned to, but now that I know both of you are craving it, I'll make sure to make plenty," I say with a smile.

"Thank you," they say in unison.

"You're welcome and it's my mother's recipe, you guys can always ask her to make them when Melanie and I leave on tour," I say softly and they both let out relieved sighs. "My parents already said both of you are welcome to stay either in the main house or here where there's security. I already informed both your parents that your safety is our concern while we're gone and they were understanding about it."

"Thank you Shawn," Melanie says with relief and tears fill her eyes. "Your family has done a lot for me and I have no idea how to repay you."

"Don't worry about it, they love you like a daughter," I say with a light smile and she returns it.

After making enough garlic knots to serve in a restaurant, I take Beth for a relaxing bath. She was laying against me in the tub while I rubbed her body down with the washcloth. She hums with content and hugs my arms around her. "How are you feeling," I ask in a soothing whisper and kiss her temple.

"Relaxed for the most part, my back hurts a little," she says quietly scrunching her eyebrows with her eyes closed.

I bring my hands up and gingerly massage her neck and shoulders. She groans with relief and I kiss her temple. "Can you do this in bed? I don't want to fall asleep in the tub," she grunts in a whisper.

"Of course," I say in a soothing whisper and help her out of the tub.

Melanie

I sat with Abbigail straddling my lap, tracing my facial features. She's been quiet since Shawn took Beth for a relaxing bath. She had this look on her face, like she was deep in thought about something and didn't know what to say. She sighs deeply and brings both hands to caress my face as tears fill her eyes. "I spoke with my eye doctor, he's going to follow us to Arizona. He said I was eligible for this implant that will fully restore my sight. When he asked why I suddenly wanted it, I told him that my wife was joining the military and I wanted a chance to see her before she left. That I wanted to see our baby and watch them grow," she chokes quietly as the tears start to roll down her cheeks.

I was at a loss for words as tears of my own roll down my cheeks and over her fingers. I guess it was a good enough reaction for her, because she starts kissing me passionately. She grinds her hips against my bulge and I feel myself erect against her. Her arms and legs wrap around me and I bring her to the bedroom. I close the door and bring her to the bed. I pull her shorts and panties off, kissing up her thigh to her core.

Her breathing was becoming ragged and ran her hand in my hair. I slowly lick the length of her opening and she moans, lifting her hips against my face. She whimpers and I attach my mouth to her clit. Her breaths shutter at the sudden pleasure and pushes my face against her dripping entrance. I start sucking on her clit and she writhes above me, gripping my hair.

She lets in whoever was knocking on the door and I look up to see it's Shawn. When she sees Abbigail is exposed, she covers her eyes and turns around. "Sorry, just wanted to know if Abbigail wanted more garlic knots made," she stammers quietly.

"Where's Beth," Abbigail asks in a breathy whisper before Shawn could close the door.

"She fell asleep while I massaged her back. I'll give you privacy," she says and was ready to leave the room but Abbigail stopped her. "Yeah?"

"Join us, please? I'll tell Beth when she wakes up," Abbigail pleads holding her hand out toward the door.

Shawn looks at me and I look down at her forming erection. She must have noticed me looking because she brings both hands to cover her bulge. "I want to watch," I say in a seductive whisper and Abbigail gets off the bed to bring Shawn over.

She takes Shawn's hand and places it between her legs. "Take me like you did earlier," she moans as she grabs Shawn's growing member through her gym shorts.

Shawn lifts her up and lays her on the bed. She removes the rest of Abbigail's clothes and her own. My eyes widen at the size of her junk no wonder she and Beth call it a beast. I wonder how they're able to fit her thick shaft?

I shake my head of my thoughts as Abbigail let out a blissful moan. Shawn was tongue deep inside her, holding her legs wide open. Her back arches off the bed, squirting all over Shawn's face. Abbigail lay above her breathing heavily from the monstrous orgasm. Shawn positions herself and slowly pushes herself into Abbigail.

Abbigail's breaths hitch as Shawn lifts her legs over her shoulders with a pillow under Abbigail's hips. Abbigail's eyes were hooded and Shawn starts gently pumping her hips. "Mmmm, just like that," Abbigail moans, gripping the bedspread and Shawn starts rubbing her clit. "Shit, don't stop. Harder, faster."

Shawn obliged and starts thrusting her hips. The sound of wetness and skin smacking filled the room. I look down and notice I was harder then usual. Every time Abbigail moaned my dick twitched and I start rubbing myself. Watching them drove me to an orgasm and came hard but couldn't soften.

Moments later Shawn gave three hard thrusts before stopping deep inside Abbigail. "Roll me on my side, but don't pull out," Abbigail moans and Shawn does as she asks.

She wraps her leg over Shawn's side and I take this as an invite to join them. I take my clothes off and Shawn rolls on her back with Abbigail laid on her chest, sucking her nipple. I took this time to grab the lubricant and slick up Abbigail's back entrance. I lubricate my erection and slowly fill her other hole. She moans and together Shawn and I find rhythm, thrusting into Abbigail.

Moments later she comes wildly before passing out on top of Shawn. We pull out of her and gently lay her on the bed. We were both still at full length and she takes notice of the vaginal slit at the base of my scrotum. I swallow nervously as she motions for permission. I nod lightly and she teases her finger at my opening, pushing me onto my back.

I moan as her finger delves inside me, taking my vaginal virginity. She was the first to notice it and I couldn't wait to feel her stretch it out. "Are you sure about this," she asks as I reach for her thick shaft.

"Fuck me," I growl seductively and I moan as she slams inside me. "God this feels good."

She starts thrusting into me, jerking my dick in her hand and my eyes roll in my head. "This is your first time this way," she asks between grunts.

"Oh my God yes, don't stop. I'm almost there," I moan.

Moments later we come in unison and she lays beside me, both of us catching our breath. We look over to see Abby still asleep and break into fits of giggles as we catch our breath. We get dressed and sit out in the living room while our wives sleep. "Guess that makes all three of you able to handle my big dick," she says with a smile and I blush.

"You're the only one who knows I have both gentiles," I whisper shyly and glance at her. "Please, let me tell them when I'm ready."

She nods with understanding and I break into relieved sobs. She takes me in her arms and I'm thankful she accepted all of me. She strokes my hair and I let out a calming breath. "I'm scared Shawn. What if we get over there and the Americans we're rescuing aren't my parents? What if I never find them," I ask between broken sobs and hide my face in her neck.

"Shhh, I'm sure it's them. They're the only known missing Americans over there," she says in a soothing whisper and I sob myself to sleep.

    BethIt was the night before Shawn and Melanie left for basic training. Unfortunately they weren't able to postpone their tour. They had to act fast for this mission before the window of opportunity closed. They were granted permission to return home in six months to be with us for the remaining of our pregnancies and stay with us six weeks after our babies are born. I was devastated when she broke the news a few days ago and we've been inseparable ever since. We skipped graduation and stayed cuddled in her bed. We just finished making love and I was propped up against the headboard with Shawn between my legs on her stomach. Her arms were wrapped around my waist planting gentle kisses all over my stomach. I play my fingers through her hair as she whispers to Jordan. She's promising to return home safely and to write letters or video chat as often as she can.Tears roll down my cheeks and she looks up at me with a smile.
