David wasn’t home, but Alice was, and she fixed him a cup of tea to go with the cookies that she’d just baked while he poured out his story.He had skipped around a couple of times, but she said that she understood what he was saying.When she finally sat down, he waited for her to tell him he was being foolish.
“The house that we gave your brother was foreclosed on.Someone who had been friends with us, as a matter of fact.We tried to help them, but they wouldn’t have it.Their pride got them into trouble, and it was keeping them from getting the help that they needed to save their home.I’m sure that the bank tried to work with them, too, as they don’t want to foreclose on anyone.There’s not just a lot of paperwork to be filled out, but they might not get what they want from the house in the end.”He said that he’d not thought about that.“I’m sure if you were to ask Mr.Howard about it, he’d tell you the same thing.That the people just wouldn’t play ball with them, and that’s what made them lose their homes.”
He told her about how he’d been trying to spend money and hadn’t gotten the hang of it yet.She told him that it was a good thing.That they’d have money well beyond their lives, and that would be a good nest egg for their children.
“I’m not sure that I want to have a family.I don’t know why, but I think there are enough people in the world who have children they can’t afford.”She said she wished they’d had children.“I’m sorry.I had forgotten about that.I didn’t mean to make you feel bad.”
“I’m all right.Today.Some days are worse than others.But I have to tell you that having you six around, coming to us for advice, has been the best thing that has happened to us.We just love you all like you’re our own children.”She laughed.“We’ve even thought about adopting the six of you, but you’re a might old to be calling us mom and dad at this late in the game.”
“I was just a kid when my mom was killed by our father.Did someone tell you that he died in prison?”She said that she’d heard about it from Kinsey.“He goes to you for advice all the time he told me.I love having you guys around to help us.What I was getting at, I’d love to call you mom.You’re the best thing that has happened to us since I was a child.And I couldn’t ask for a better role model.”
She got up and turned her back to him.He could tell that she was crying, and it hurt him in his heart that he’d caused her to do that.Getting up, he pulled her into his arms and held her while she sobbed.His own eyes filled with tears as he held her in his arms while she cried.He wondered what he’d do if she were to tell one of his brothers that he’d made her cry.They’d more than likely kill him.
After a bit, she stopped crying, but he continued to hold her.She laid her head on his shoulder and told him he was a good man.He thought that she couldn’t have given him a better compliment than that, and he was proud to have her say that to him.
Sitting down when she said she was all right, he enjoyed another cookie.He didn’t much care for the tea, preferring a nice glass of milk instead.He drank it with the cookies and didn’t say anything.She’d been kind to him, and he hoped someday that he’d be able to repay her for her kindness.The Winchesters really were the best part of selling the farm to them.They’d become close friends, and it felt good to have someone in his corner all the time.
Being invited to stay for dinner, he couldn’t find it in him to turn her down.They were having steaks on the grill, and it was his favorite meal.David arrived home around four, and they sat in the living room of their new home and talked about what he’d talked to Alice about earlier.He got a kick out of the story about having money on him and how it had made him sick.He related his own story about money, too, that had him laughing hard.
“I’d been about seventeen and wanted to show up that I had some money.I didn’t.I was just beginning to show my worth to my father when I wanted to be a big man.So I went to the bank and got myself two stacks of ones.They made my wallet look fatter, you see.When I pulled out one of the tens I had too, I made sure that they could all see that I had a wad of cash.Little did I know I was showing them that I had all ones while I was at it.It took me making my first million before I got over that.Today, I carry around money so that I know that I can spread it around.What I love doing now that I’m making my own way in the world.”Ara said he’d have to do that, so he’d feel better if he were to lose his wallet.“No, don’t do that.You be who you are, young man, and you’ll be just fine.If you can’t spend your money on things that you want, you’re going to regret it.Find a passion and fill your home with it.Even if it’s making puzzles.You do what makes you feel good.”
He was going to do just that.As soon as he figured out what made him happy.Right now, he was able to afford the things that he needed when he needed them.He knew that before long, he’d find what made him happy.The first thing that popped into his head was traveling.He wanted to see the world, but he’d start with the country that he was in.He’d not seen much of it since he’d been a kid and wanted that more than anything.As soon as he found himself a house, he was going to travel around, finding new adventures to tell his family about someday.Yes, he thought, that’s just what he was going to do.
He’d figure out a plan and go for it.It would be an eye-opener because he’d only been in Ohio all his life and wanted to try different foods.See different things while he was out and have some fun, and spend a little bit of his money.He might even get himself a truck and a tent to go on his camping trips and do that.He was excited about going around to the different states and was going to start on his planning as soon as he got home.
Chapter 8
Wylie felt like a man on top of the world today.He’d made love to Rosie for the first time since finding out about the baby, and it had been epic.The way that the two of them came together was something that he’d love her for the rest of their life.It was gentle in a consuming sort of way, and he wanted that sort of passion all the time.
He’d been woken up by coming down her throat.She’d been having her way with him for some time if his cock being painfully hard had any indication.When he begged her to let him fuck her, she said that she was having too much fun and that he should go back to sleep.Like that was ever going to happen.As fucked her mouth, he guided her with his hand to where it felt the best.She was doing such a wonderful job that he held off coming until he couldn’t stand it anymore while she sucked him.
When she cupped his balls gently in her hands, he nearly came up off the bed.It wasn’t painful, not at all; it was the pleasure that was painful to his cock.Coming again, crying out with it, he knew that if he didn’t have her soon, he was going to die from it.Pulling her up his body, he’d made sure that she knew that he needed her by kissing her savagely.Then, as he was going to take her, a gentleness settled over him, and he made love to her slowly.She seemed to have needed it as well because she didn’t complain about how he’d changed up his making love to her.
Touching her where he could, he kissed her softly.As she moaned at times, he felt his cock harden even more, but did not need to take control.He slid into her then fucked her just as slowly.When she came several times, one right after the other, he made sure that she enjoyed it as much as he did, making love to her.Taking her hands to the top of the bed, he held them there as he kissed her again.Touching her breast, he was amazed at how it filled his hand, and her nipple became so hard.When he finally came with her, she cried out, digging her nails into his back, holding onto him.As he emptied into her for the final time, he dropped atop of her and laid there.He was spent and couldn’t move.It wasn’t until she started to wiggle out from under him that he was able to move off her and to the side of the bed.It was nice having a bed big enough for this kind of lovemaking.He’d pay twice what he’d paid for it just to be able to lay on his side and touch Rosie in the aftermath of their loving.
“I have to get up.”He asked her why, it was Saturday.“I have that meeting with the townspeople today about my replacement.I have a feeling that they’re going to go with McGee, as he is the most charismatic person I’ve met.If I didn’t know it was all for show, I’d believe the shit that he’s telling.”
“What kind of stuff is he peddling?I’m sure that some people will be able to see right through him.”She said that people wanted new and younger.“You’re younger.Why on earth would you say that about yourself?”
“I mean over Peterson.He’s been retired longer than I’ve been working as a cop, and I don’t see him being up to date on things that would be important to the town.”She got up and stood at the side of the bed.“I’m not sure I’d go with Peterson either, but of the two of them, McGee scares me a bit.I have a feeling that he’s going to be one of those cops who follow every rule to the letter and not let anyone slide like I did.It’s going to be tough for everyone in town.”
“Do you know this about him, or are you just guessing?I’m not sure about the man other than what you’ve told me.I think I’d be scared of him as well.”He got up himself and went to turn on the shower for her.“People don’t like change, and if he does too much of it right off the bat, he’s going to be out of a job before he even gets to decorate his office to his liking.”
Rosie laughed and said that he’d come in on Thursday and was measuring her office.He thought that was a little cheeky and told her so.She told him that he was also filling out a list of things that he wanted to do on his first day in office.
“I’m sure that it’s not going to go over well for either one of them.I guess we’ll have to bewatching ourselves from now on.Not that I remember doing all that much wrong in the first place, but I don’t want to spend any time in jail.Not when I just got my life together.I love sleeping with you in our big bed.I don’t think I’d do well with a little cot and you not around.”He pouted for her, making her laugh.“That’s just what I wanted.You to laugh for me.It might not be as bad as you think.Hopefully not anyway.I guess we’ll have to just wait and see what he does.”
“I don’t like it.Nor him.There is something else about him that I don’t care for, and I can’t put my finger on it right now.It’s like he’s testing me sometimes when he’s in the office.I don’t know.Perhaps he’ll be just fine, and it’s my hormones that are making me see something that’s not there.”Wylie trusted her opinion over anything else.If she didn’t like the guy, then there was a reason for it.She’d never said that to him in all the time they’d been together.“I’m going to take a shower, and then I’m going to the school.I did tell you that’s where they’re having the meet and greet, right?It was the biggest place we could get into.I have a feeling that most of the town will show up for this thing even if they don’t have anything to say.”
After she got into the shower, he made the bed.It was something that he was in the habit of doing and hadn’t gotten out of it yet.He didn’t know if he wanted to.It felt good to have his bed made when he went to breakfast.He also picked up the laundry around the room and put it in the basket as well.He was getting good, he thought at being a domestic worker at home.
When he got out of his shower and dressed, he headed down to the kitchen.Rosie was just finishing up hers when a plate of food was set in front of him.He ate while talking to both Rosie and their cook about dinner tonight.He wanted pork chops, and that sounded all right with Rosie.The cook, her name was Linda, said she’d have them ready at six and would have bread to do with it.He was happy for the bread.He loved her warm bread with butter all over it.
Today, he was meeting his brothers for lunch.They were getting together once a week and on Saturday afternoon so that they could have the rest of the day to hang out.This was their second lunch meeting, and so far, he was having a good time.He saw most of them every day and caught up with them.But having a time when they could get together was fantastic because there just didn’t seem to be enough time to talk about their lives when they were running around working.He thought that they all had a job, including Kinsey now, and they seemed to be happier for it.
“I’ve been looking at the stocks that we have with David.Did you know that he’s hired extra people so that they can work with us?I thought that was wonderful of him to do that.I know that I trust his word over anyone else’s when it comes to trading and buying.”He told Raphael that he’d not known that, but felt bad that he was footing the bill.“Yeah, I thought of that too, but I figured that if he didn’t want to do it, he’d say so.One thing that I’ve learned from David is that when he doesn’t want to do something, he has no trouble telling you no.He’s not done it to me, but I’ve heard him tell others no.He does it in a way that there are no feelings hurt either.”
“Alice is the same way.She’s much nicer at it than David is.While still getting her point across, she almost makes you think you’re the one who decided not to do it instead of her telling you that she didn’t want to.Understand?”He laughed and said that he did.“Good.I love her.I’ve started calling her mom lately.She loves it, and I feel good about it too.”
