“Daddy, wake up. It’s getting late to go to Miss Vanessa’s house,” I heard Emily whisper in my ear. I moved around, fluttering my eyes open and letting out a painful groan. The trailer barely had enough space for a big bed or even two small ones, and I was sleeping on the old leather couch.
I already sank the old piece of furniture in the middle because of my heavy body. But I would do anything to keep Emily comfortable.
“Five more minutes, little mouse,” I said, turning around and closing my eyes again.
“But, Daddy. You promised you’d be there early, and it’s already nine.”
Was it nine already? I looked up at the clock and it was indeed late. Getting off the couch as quickly as I could, I took a shower and got dressed, putting on my boots while I walked towards the door, falling flat on my face.
Emily covered her mouth, holding back a giggle. I couldn’t help but laugh at
Vanessa Emily’s question caught me by surprise, but I didn’t have time to react when I heard a loud thump from under the sink. Clay shouted what seemed to be a swear word, making me direct my eyes towards him. I gasped, kneeling in front of him to make sure he was okay. Checking his forehead, I noticed he had a small but deep cut. I hoped he didn’t need any stitches. Emily shouted something about bandaids, but I wasn’t paying much attention. I was focused on her father. As I helped him up slowly, he leaned against me while we both walked towards the kitchen stool. He groaned in pain as he sat down, holding his head. “That’s going to leave a mark and a killer headache for sure,” he laughed. “Let me see again,” I said, taking his hand off his forehead. I hissed at the sight, and there was already a dark spot. A bruise was about to form there, for sure. Ordering him to stay still, I hurried to my room to search for my fir
Clay Vanessa’s lips were soft, and they tasted of strawberries and cream. We were both in that bathtub for a good while, kissing each other tenderly. I could feel her bucking her hips as she wrapped her arms around my neck, letting out a soft moan from her lips while my jeans were tightening on a very compromising area. That brought her back to her senses, pushing me away with her eyes open wide. She left the bathtub, and I could see a hint of lust in her eyes. At the same time, her cheeks turned red. I just stood there, with the showerhead still in my hand, desperately shutting the water off. The whole bathroom was flooded, and we were both soaking wet. After ordering me to finish my job, she walked out, closing the door behind her.
VanessaI looked around at his home as Emily gave me a tour, and I could see they didn’t have much. But judging by the joy on her face, they didn’t need it. They appreciated what they had instead of what they could have.This made me think of how ungrateful I had been my entire life. She was only five years old, and she didn’t need more than her father’s love and care.“So last, but not least. My bedroom. I have so many teddy bears and I love them. Let me show them to you!” she said, grabbing me by the hand and pulling me inside a small space with a big bed full of the stuffed animals.“Here is Suzy, Gaby, Leon, Herbert and here we have Lilly, Julie, Peter and Little Kit Kat.” She introduced them while pointing at each one.“They are all beautiful. You have a very cozy home,” I said, sitting on the bed with her as she kept handing me her teddy bears. Looking down at them, memories of my ch
CLAY “Wake up, daddy! Wake up!” Emily shouted as she jumped on me, making me groan in pain. She was only a tiny thing, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t heavy. And the couch doesn’t help either. I opened my eyes and looked at her, her toothless smile always making my mornings. After we walked into the trailer last night, Emily brought Vanessa to her room and I laid on the couch as usual. She offered to switch with me, but Emily didn’t agree with it. Just as my parents raised me, I raised her the same. Be kind and polite. “I’m up. Now give me a chance to get off the couch,” I replied. Emily ran to the kitchen and joined Vanessa, who was in front of the stove, looking casual. Her hair was down in waves and she was wearing tight jeans that complimented her beautiful figure perfectly, with a blue blouse that perked her breasts. “Good morning, Mr. Steele. I hope you’re hungry. Just attempting to cook something for you and Emily,” she said, putting a
VanessaThe ride home was in total awkward silence. Clay was still upset about hurting his daughter’s feelings, but to be fair, all I said was that she’s only a kid. I mean, don’t adults know better? I guess I was wrong when I saw that poor thing jump off the truck. I hugged myself as I looked out the window, feeling Clay’s eyes on me, but I didn’t dare look back. I was honestly ashamed.We arrived at my house and as soon as he parked the truck; I got out. Didn’t even bother picking my bag from the back of the truck as I made my way towards the door. I took the key out of my pocket and tried to unlock it, frustrated at my failed attempt to do so.“Let me do it for you,” he said, taking the key from my hand and easily opening the door. I walked in after mouthing a ‘thank you’ to him and stood in the middle of my living room, looking around. It was slowly coming along and I couldn’t
ClaySeeing Vanessa struggle with the paint bucket was a sight to see. She grunted as she tried to pull the lid off, making me laugh.“Oh, you think that’s funny? Why instead of laughing, you don’t help me open this darn thing?” she asked, her hand on her hips while she tapped her foot on the floor as a sign of annoyance.“No problem, beautiful,” I replied, grabbing my metal bucket opener and easily taking the lid off. She scoffed, snatching the lid off my hand before she put it down. I held my lips into a thin line to not laugh. She looked lovely.“You didn’t tell me there was an easier way to open it.”“You didn’t ask.” I chuckled, shrugging my shoulders. Pouring some of the paint on the tray, Vanessa picked up the paint roller and started doing the job. She had chosen a lavender color for her living room, saying it will make it look bright and alive. I could
Vanessa He’s done it. He has managed to do what Alex never did. Make me reach the biggest orgasm I haven't had in years. If his tongue and fingers could do that, I couldn’t imagine what it would feel like having him inside of me. I was still leaning against the cold tiled wall. The water was still running down my body, cooling me down from that intense and heated moment. As I stepped out of the shower, my mind still reeled at the fact that Clay had awoken something in me. With Alex, it was only sex. With him, it felt like something entirely different... and amazing. I walked into my room and grabbed a pair of jeans and a black top, combing my hair down to let it air dry in the meantime. Checking in my boxes, I luckily found a pair of sweatpants and a shirt. They belonged to Alex, and seeing how much bigger Clay was compared to him, I prayed it fit him. There was a female voice coming from the living room, and I wondered who co
ClayI was done with the electric part of the house and finished painting the wall for Vanessa, hoping her conversation with Emily went well. I couldn’t afford to have her sulk around without feeling like the worst father in the world.As I kept painting, I could hear Vanessa’s vehicle park on the driveway. I cleaned my hands and walked out to the porch, only to see my little princess getting out and running towards me.“Hi, daddy! Vanessa bought me some ice cream, it was delicious!” she said excitedly before she ran inside the house. Vanessa walked over with two bags of food in her hands, handing them to me before she sauntered away.I walked into the kitchen, seeing her take out a bottle of red wine out of the cabinet, making me wonder where she got that from. As if reading my thoughts, she laughed and popped the cork open before serving it in two glasses.“Come on, we don’t want the food to ge
ClayAs I sat there, leaning against the chair on our bridal table, I couldn’t help but admire the stunning woman dancing with my daughter. The way their dresses flowed as they twirled around on the dance floor had my heart and soul in total happiness.We had our first dance as husband and wife, but this was topping it. They looked beautiful.“Hello, everyone. Sorry to interrupt this amazing moment, but I wanted to say a few words to the bride and groom.” Candice’s voice was heard on the DJ’s microphone as she walked towards our table while Emily and Vanessa sat down, a big smile on their faces.Holding our hands, I kissed her before we heard the speech her best frie
VanessaFour months!Four months have gone by and I couldn’t be more excited. We finally brought back home our little bundles of joy last month and they looked so healthy and happy.Even visiting them every day at the hospital made me miss them. I had the need to wake up every morning and go straight to their bedroom just to see their sleeping faces before the sun snuck through their colorful curtains.They looked beautiful, and both had dark hair like mine. But they had hazel eyes like their father and made me fall in love with them even more.Our wedding didn’t take place the month after they were born, but
ClayI was almost home when I got a call from the hospital, letting me know about the altercation between Kelly and Candice in Vanessa’s room.Now I was here, holding her hand while Candice knitted with a frown on her face. I knew she still felt guilty.“Why don’t you go back home? I’ll stay here and maybe they’ll lend me some clothes so I can take a shower,” I said. She looked at Vanessa, who smiled at her, and nodded, knowing it was best if she did.I called Lorena and Katherine to stay with Emily and I would let them know when we would be home.Lorena wanted to visit her daughter, but it was bes
VanessaI wasn’t sure for how long I was out after talking to Clay, but when I opened my eyes and found myself alone in my room, panic rose. Looking around the place, I tried to search for him, but he wasn’t there either.My abdomen hurt, and it was sensitive to the touch, making me realize this is how my babies were born.My babies, where are they?I hit the button to call the nurse, fear creeping over me as the last thing I remembered was kissing them before they took them away.“Hello, Miss Harper. Glad to see you’re awake,” she said, walking in to check my vitals.
ClayI couldn’t believe it was happening again, and this time there was no turning back. The babies were either going to be born or lose their little lives.As I paced back and forth, I could hear the footsteps of the nurses going through the double doors, making me think the worst.The doctor arrived, and he quickly made his way through the same doors at the same time a nurse came outside.“We’re ready for you, Dad,” she said, urging me to the room and preparing me to be by Vanessa’s side. They put on some scrubs on me, a mask and a cap before gesturing to me to sit on a stool right next to her.&
Vanessa“Emily will be here any minute. Let’s get this going,” I said as Clay hung a Happy Birthday banner behind the table where the cake would be.The entire house was decorated nicely, with balloons all over the living room, confetti spread around the floor, which I would have to sweep later, and even the horses were ready with saddles to give the kids a ride.Clay had been working hard these past few months to get our business going.Yes, our business. Because now that we were going to get married, we would share everything.“Hello!” Candice walked in with a white box in her hands, putting it on the table
ClayVanessa’s Mom had been sent from heaven. She’s helped her when I’m not here and helped with Emily’s care as well.Months have gone by and now Vanessa was six months along in her pregnancy. Emily started her first grade and soon we would be celebrating her sixth birthday as well.Candice moved out to her house, and John had joined her not long after, which made her happy.One thing I still had in mind was Rita. Pete had given me news about her. As soon as they had evidence about her fraudulent transactions, they went to pick her up at her house, but she had fled.&ldquo
Vanessa“What are you doing here?” I asked, holding myself from hugging her. I have missed her, but I was also hurt that she didn’t even speak on my behalf when Dad fired me from the company. Clay held me by the waist, supporting me, and I was grateful because I needed it.“I came to see how you were doing,” she said, looking down at the already big bump on my belly. “But I see you’re doing well. How far along are you?”I looked down with a smile, rubbing my belly, before I looked back at her.“I’m still three months, almost four.”“Wow, you really are show
ClayI opened my eyes to see Vanessa sitting up, hugging herself and trembling. All I could see were her tears streaming down her cheeks, and that worried me.“Baby, are you okay?” I kissed her shoulder, her skin feeling cold.“I’ll be fine. It was just a bad dream,” she whispered as she slowly got out of bed and headed to the bathroom, closing the door behind her.I followed her, but didn’t dare go in, so I stood by the door and knocked.“Tell me, what happened?” I asked, expecting an answer from her. There was just silence, but I could hear a muffled sob coming from behind the door. Hoping it was unlocked, I turned the knob and walked in, seeing her sitting on the toilet with a tissue
