Loving Lacey

Early November

Year 2 of Us

Friday

I woke up and realized that there was only one other person in bed with me. I started to sit up when Lacey flung her arm over my chest, followed by planting her head on my shoulder.

"We're under strict orders to stay here and cuddle."

I looked into her blue eyes and noticed that there was a sleepy smile on Lacey's face. "Orders?"

"Yes," she nodded, "we can only get up if we have to go to the bathroom or if the babies are hungry."

"What time is...?"

"It doesn't matter. The reinforcements are here, and Erica has everything under control."

"When did all this happen?" I kissed her forehead, smiling gently.

"Before dawn. Travis and the kids got here first, then Cathy and Miriam. Roni and Tina got here about thirty minutes ago."

I chuckled. "Did you go meet everyone as they arrived?"

"Of course. What kind of hostess would I be if I didn't meet them?" Her smile grew wider. She shifted up and kissed me softly, her tongue teasing mine. I started to roll towards her when there was a tap on the door.

"Lacey, are you awake?" I heard Erica's voice come through the partly opened door.

"Yes, and so is Wyatt, so come on in."

I rolled my head and reached for my glasses. Once I had them on, I could see Erica's smile as she pushed the door open. Lacey raised herself up and then sat cross-legged beside me, her hands caressing my chest.

"Why are you awake, Wyatt?" Erica gave me a mock scowl. I shrugged.

"Just woke up." I grinned at her. "I'm surprised that I didn't wake up earlier, considering everything that seems to have been going on."

Lacey leaned forward and kissed my forehead. "I have to go pee."

"Then back into bed with you, young lady," Erica scolded, then smiled. "We've already fed all three babies without you, Wyatt."

"Oh?"

She nodded as Lacey got off the bed and walked into the bathroom. "Travis stood in for you, but you need to eat before the littles wake up again." She grinned. "I don't think Sam was fooled, at all!"

"Of course not," I moved around and sat up, holding my left leg as pain shot up it. "Travis only has a mustache, not her Daddy's beard." I grimaced, even though I had meant to grin at her.

Erica leaned over and rested her hands on my shoulders, before taking my chin in one hand. She pulled up, forcing me to look into her blue eyes. "Just how badly are you doing, cowboy?"

I closed my eyes. "About a nine on the scale, to be honest," I whispered.

"Do you need help?"

I shrugged. "Maybe?"

Erica gave me her hands and I started to stand up. I groaned just as Lacey walked back in.

"What the hell?" She rushed over to us.

"I'm trying to help him up, Lacey."

Lacey shoved herself under my right arm, pushing up gently, using her strength to help me get vertical. "Can you walk, love?"

I nodded. "I think so." I took a tentative step. "Maybe." Erica released her grip.

"Perhaps." I stopped moving and looked down at Lacey. "Honey, get back into bed. I have to pee, too, then I need to go downstairs to get something to eat."

Lacey nodded as I limped into the bathroom. I took care of business, and I could them talking in the bedroom. When I came back in, my cane was leaning against the bed. I hated that thing. It made me feel useless... crippled. I gave it a look and Lacey simply said, "Use it, Wyatt. Everyone here knows what condition you're in." She took a breath. "Don't be prideful."

I looked at her and I could see everything she felt for me... all the love... all the care and support shining in her eyes. I nodded. "Okay. It just makes me feel..."

"Inadequate?"

"Exactly." I choked a bit, but then I was grabbed by them and held tightly.

"You're not inadequate, Wyatt," Lacey whispered to me as she tugged my face to hers. She stared into my eyes before she kissed me.

Erica added, "She loves *you*, Wyatt. Do you think that she'd love someone inadequate?"

Lacey broke the kiss, and I turned my head enough to give Erica a kiss, too. I rested my cheek on Lacey's forehead, before saying, "I love both of you. I just wanted to say it aloud, instead of merely thinking it." They both smiled at me as Erica stepped away. "I'm just glad I got pants on somehow."

"Oh, my cowboy," Lacey giggled. "We got them on you right after Travis got here -- we were sleeping, too."

I grinned at her. "Will you get me a shirt, then, love?" I found my slippers and stepped into them as Erica hovered while Lacey pulled a shirt from the closet. When she handed it to me, I pulled it over my head. Two pairs of hands helped me tug it down and I gave them each a kiss after it was in place.

"Lacey, you get back in bed, okay?" I took a breath and lifted my cane, watching as she got back under the covers. "I'll be back up as soon as I can."

Lacey caressed my back then dropped onto the bed with a giggle. "Yes, sir."

"Don't call me sir, I worked for a living!"

"Yes, love." Then she started laughing, and I joined in.

Erica looked from Lacey to me, with a puzzled look on her face.

"Tuck her in, Erica, and I'll tell you the joke on the way downstairs." While that was happening, I quietly made my way to look in on the babies. All three were asleep, with LB under Sam's crib and Sherlock looking at me from under Duncan's. I smiled at both of them and backed away as Sherlock wagged his tail at me before settling his head back down.

When I made it to the bedroom door, Lacey was already asleep, and Erica was standing at the door with a gentle smile on her face.

On the way down the stairs, I tell Erica the bit about having been a sergeant, an NCO, which nobody calls an NCO 'Sir', which is reserved for male officers. Once I told her the entire thing, she shook her head and said," You military guys are complicated."

I simply nodded agreement as we reached the bottom of the stairs and then I smelled food, so I started to head for the kitchen when Erica took my arm and guided me to the living room.

Travis looked around the wall at me and asked, "The usual, Wyatt?"

"Sure!" I answered as Erica brought me to a halt at the couch.

There were four young women sitting there and Erica began to introduce them. She pointed to the one on my far left and said, "This is Cathy Roché," I shuffled forward as she rose, extending her hand. I shook her hand, took her in and smiled at her. She was about the same height as Erica, with shoulder length, jet-black hair and piercing green eyes. Her pale complexion was striking when combined with her hair.

The next was "Miriam Lee," a redhead with very short hair and beautiful grey eyes. When she stood up to shake my hand, I realized that she was nearly as tall as I was. After our hands touched, she leaned forward and gave me a hug, which certainly surprised me.

Then there was "Roni Hansen," an Asian girl shorter than Lacey whose hair was over her shoulders and whose dark eyes sparkled with amusement.

Finally, I was introduced to "Tina Baker," a blonde with green eyes who didn't seem to like me. She was a little taller than Erica, and there was a definite 'I don't like you' vibe coming from her.

When that was over, Erica took me by the arm and guided me into the kitchen, where Travis had just set a breakfast plate down on the table. I made it into the chair and started to eat. I bobbed my head towards the living room before speaking to Erica in a low voice.

"What did I ever do to Tina?"

"Well," Erica paused and looked to make sure that we were alone except for Travis, who began to clean up.

"It's a little complicated."

"Of course," I replied with a smile.

"I think that she believes that you 'stole' Lacey from her." When I looked at her, Erica shook her head softly. "Lacey likes her, but there wasn't that much to the relationship. Play time? Yeah. Love?" Erica shook her head again. "No."

Sounds came from Erica's pocket. She pulled her phone out and I could hear faint sounds coming from it. "That's Amanda. I'll get up there, wake up Lacey and start to deal with them." She patted my shoulder. "Finish up and come up. I'll take the girls up and they can meet the babies." She kissed my cheek and walked into the living room.

Once she had gotten them up the stairs, Travis sat beside me.

I looked at him. "So, am I going to have trouble with Tina?"

He shrugged. "She's not a man-hater, but she did make it clear that she was annoyed."

I slumped down as I finished the last of my food. He clapped his hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry. If anyone can keep a lid on this, it'll be Lacey."

I smiled and then Travis got a ping on his phone. He pulled it and looked at it. "Text from Erica. They need *you* up there. Sam isn't happy."

I stood up and grabbed the cane. I hobbled over to the stairs and made my way up them.

When I got to our bedroom, Miriam was walking around the room holding Sam, cooing to her. I knew the sounds Sam was making and Miriam walked her over to me.

When I took Sam from her, my daughter quieted almost immediately, looking up at me with her blue eyes. She smiled and gave a little burp.

"Was that her problem?" Miriam asked with a little laugh. She looked down at Sam and smiled.

I grinned at Miriam. "Looks like it."

"I guess you're right." She smiled at me and stayed by us as I slowly moved about the room. "Lacey said that you sing to her, sometimes."

I nodded.

"Will you sing to her? And me?"

I chuckled softly, looking down at Samantha. "I don't want to scare everyone."

"Wyatt?" Lacey's voice reached me.

"Yes?"

"Sing to her." I looked up and saw her eyes on me. "No dancing. Not today."

I nodded and began softly singing "Slow Dancin'" to my daughter. I gently moved her around, trying to mimic the moves I would make if I was dancing with her. I looked down and saw LB sitting in front of me, her tail wagging slowly as she watched me, her head tilted to one side.

It didn't take long until Sam drifted off to sleep.

"You're better at singing that then you give yourself credit, Wyatt."

"Thank you, Miriam." I started to move, then I realized that my cane was leaning against my right leg. "Would you grab my cane and follow me? I'm going to put her to bed." She nodded and I started to slowly make my way across the floor as she got my cane.

"Where are you going?" When I looked up, Erica was standing there, with Roni standing beside her and Cathy hanging back a bit. They were smiling, so I just kept moving.

"Taking her to bed. Amanda's already down?"

Erica nodded, then she reached for Sam, her eyes trying to tell me something. "Will you let Roni and Cathy hold her for a bit?"

I stop and look at them. Roni was smiling widely, and while Cathy was smiling, hers was almost tentative. "Certainly."

With a little maneuvering, I was able to transfer my daughter into Roni's arms, whose face just started to glow as she cuddled Sam.

"Let's get her into bed," said Erica. Roni and Cathy nodded as they moved towards the door. I followed along, and then Erica reached out a hand. I took it and she squeezed mine gently while giving me a sweet smile. I think she knew just how protective I felt towards both of my babies, and since I didn't know any of these four young women, I was a little anxious. I watched as, just before they reached the door into the babies' room, Roni skillfully transferred my daughter to Cathy.

Her face lit up, too, and I was dazzled by Cathy's smile. Her quiet beauty just erupted. She was cuddling my daughter so well, I simply followed all of them into the room and watched as Cathy gently laid Sam in her crib. I could hear Lacey coming towards us, so I simply backed out to give them room.

Again, Tina gave me a cold stare, this time as Lacey stretched up to give my cheek a kiss.

"Where are you going, Wyatt?"

"Getting crowded in there." I looked down at Duncan. "How is he?"

Lacey giggled softly. "Everyone loves him. He gave a big burp and then fell off to sleep."

"That's my boy." I grinned. "One last, loud statement, then off to sleep." I caressed his face once, then looked into Lacey's eyes. "I need to get off this leg, love. Do you think...?"

"Yes! Stretch out, take off your pants, and as soon as he's in his crib, I'll work on your leg."

I looked at Lacey and she just calmly returned my look. I shrugged and made my way to our bed. I pulled my pants off and flopped onto the bed, pulling a blanket over my midsection before dropping my head onto my pillow. I laid there, trying to subdue the pain.

I must have done myself some good, because I don't remember anyone coming back into the bedroom, but I did hear Lacey say, "Erica, would you go get the lotion, please?"

There was a murmured response and then I felt Lacey's hand on my chest. "Wyatt?"

I opened my eyes and looked into hers. She smiled and caressed my chest. "I'm going to work on your leg. Erica's going to help, but they need to go home soon. Okay?"

"Sure," I mumbled.

"While I'm doing this, we're going to talk about how this is going to work. Erica has figured out most of it..."

"Maybe," Erica added. "They all have their own rooms. Cathy and Roni have been working remotely for some time now..."

"But I have to go into the office twice a week." I rolled my head slightly and saw Tina standing there, her arms crossed. Her expression was closed, which bothered me.

Miriam joined Erica and Lacey on the bed, touching her hair as she smiled at me. "I'm working from home right now, so I can be here as long as you guys want."

I smiled back and then Lacey began working the lotion into my leg as Erica started on the side of my knee. I winced and then I heard someone gasp.

"What the hell...!" I saw the shock on Tina's face and then I could see the faces of the other three as they moved to join Tina. Miriam went pale and Cathy looked a little queasy. Roni just looked.

I knew that they were seeing the outer portion of my left leg, and I just closed my eyes. I heard Travis' voice from the door, and I kept my eyes closed.

"Wyatt?" Erica's voice was soft.

"Yeah?" My voice was tight, and I winced as Lacey continued to work on my leg. "We have to go home. Will you let Miriam work on your knee?"

I nodded as she kissed me before crawling off the bed. "See you later, Wyatt!" I heard Travis call. I gave a weak wave and then I looked at Miriam as she moved around to take Erica's place. She gave me a big smile and then I felt her hands on my knee.

"Wyatt, Miriam is a masseuse," Lacey said.

"Oh, really?"

"I've been working as one for about three years." She smiled. "I'll be gentle, I promise."

Her touch was gentle. At first. Then she started to really work on my knee as Lacey explained to all four of them what had happened. I stopped listening after a bit -- I knew most of it, anyway.

I faded out at some point, even with the five of them talking.

I felt movement on my right side and someone's hair tickled my nose. When I focused, the hair was red and then I got a kiss on my cheek from my left.

When I looked in that direction, I saw my favorite blue eyes on me. "Hi, beautiful," I said.

She smiled at me, "Hi, back, cowboy."

"Why is Miriam sleeping on me?"

"Because you're very, very comfy, Wyatt," Miriam said as she turned her face to look at me.

"But, what...?" I asked.

"We figured who is going to do what and when," Lacey smiled lazily at me. "For today, all that we have to do rest and respond to the babies."

"But..." I couldn't even think of anything to say.

"Wyatt," Lacey said as Miriam placed her cheek on my chest, "just rest. You need it, maybe more than I do. Cathy and Tina are dealing with the kitchen. They'll make menus for a couple of weeks and go shopping. Roni is taking a nap, so it's just us three."

I looked at Lacey, then at Miriam, who smiled and said, "I've tasted Lacey, Wyatt. I want to taste you." I felt three hands moving down my body and then I realized that neither Miriam nor Lacey had any clothes on. Miriam moved so that she could look me in the eyes. "Do you wanna?" she smiled.

I could feel myself reacting to the hands on my body and Miriam kissed me, before sliding herself down my chest. I felt Lacey's lips on my chest and when Miriam met her there, I could see them kiss.

Lacey's hand was on my hardening cock, and she giggled during the kiss. "He's coming around to the idea, Mir."

"Oh, is he?" Miriam looked at me, her grey eyes intent on mine, as she pulled the blanket away before turning her head. "Oh, he is!" she giggled, then her head moved down, and I felt her warm lips take in the head of my cock. She took my entire length in one motion, making me moan.

Lacey kissed her way to my face and looked into my eyes. Her blue eyes did their magic -- I was enraptured by them and then she kissed me, hard. I used my left hand to caress Lacey's back, making her moan lightly into my mouth.

My right hand found Miriam's body and she turned so that her right shoulder was on the bed, snug to my thigh. I caressed my way up her leg and then she grabbed my hand. I wasn't sure what was going to happen until she placed it directly on her wet pussy. I could feel the curly hair around it, and then I teased her lips with my fingers.

She pulled away from my cock. "No. Fuck me hard. Cum in my mouth." I began to fuck her with my fingers, and she moaned before taking me in her mouth again.

Lacey eased her lips from mine. "You'll like this, I think." She shifted a bit, and I could see her put her hands on Miriam's head. "You ready, Mir?" Sounds came from around my cock and Lacey looked at me again. "Get ready, love."

She began to use her hands to force Miriam's head up and down on my cock, making me fuck her mouth. I was so excited by everything that I looked at Lacey and said, "I'm going to cum in her mouth, Lacey."

"Good! You want her pressed down?"

"Yes, God, yes!" Lacey forced Miriam all the way down on my cock and I exploded in her mouth and throat. I could feel Miriam sucking on me, swallowing as much as she could until Lacey released her head. As I shuddered to a stop, I felt Lacey's hand on my cock, slowly stoking it as Miriam cleaned everything up.

"How does he taste?"

Miriam giggled. "Very yummy."

Lacey giggled in response. "Are you missing something, Mir?"

I slid my fingers deep into her pussy and she moaned. When I found her clit with my thumb, I stroked up and down on it, then I pressed on it. I felt Miriam start to shake, then her legs tightened around my hand, and she cried out, "Oh. God! Cumming!"

Her body seemed to clench up and then she completely collapsed, every muscle relaxed.

"Wow," said Lacey. "I think she swooned."

I heard Miriam moaning and then she lifted her head from my thigh. "Oh, that was delicious!"

"Really?" I asked as she shifted and moved up to place her head on my shoulder. Miriam moaned a little as my fingers came free from her, but she kept moving. She draped her arm over my chest, and I could feel her hand caressing Lacey's face.

She nodded and smiled, then she lifted her face and kissed me. She surprised me, and then Lacey surprised me by saying, "Well, kiss her back, Wyatt." I did so and she was very enthusiastic about kissing.

Lacey caressed my chest and said, "I think she's as oral as you are, love."

Miriam broke the kiss, her eyes wide. "I think..." she said, before Duncan began fussing in the bedroom. Lacey and Miriam quickly got out of bed, both of them grabbing robes and Lacey paused just long enough to say to me, "Take it easy, okay?"

I nodded, got my pants on and made my way to the babies' room where they had just finished up with the diapers. Miriam had Sam in her arms and Lacey was just picking up Duncan. LB and Sherlock were alert under the cribs, and I could hear his tail thumping against one of the legs.
