Sonya's little house was a very hectic place to be that morning. Between one guy, four women and two kids running around the place it was a small wonder no one had an accident. The queue for the bathroom was worst. Jamie and Sonya had climbed the stairs to hear the shower going in the bathroom and to see Anthony, Elisha and Gwen stood outside. Jamie was wearing his jeans and an under-shirt since he hadn't thought to bring any nightwear and Sonya had her dressing gown on. The nights exploits had left their mark and the pair of them were covered in dirt and grass stains as well as having various leaves and twigs sticking out of their hair at odd angles.
"Mom, what the heck were you doing to..." Stephen began to ask his mother.
"Nothing, nothing at all. I'm sure your brother will be finished in there soon. Are you packed for school?" Sonya interrupted, her cheeks turning a fetching shade of magenta.
"Yeah it's just..." The door opened and Anthony stepped out dressed in a dull brown school uniform. This caused everyone to look at him and made the shy boy a little self conscious. He muttered something under his breath that sounded like 'good morning' before zooming past Sonya and Jamie to hurry downstairs. Stephen forgot what he was saying and since he was next in line he hurried into the bathroom.
This left Sonya and Jamie looking at the very stern expressions of Elisha and Gwen. They had matched each others stances perfectly with their arms folded as they looked at the guilty couple accusingly.
"You two are so dead." Gwen whispered at Sonya and Jamie.
"So very, very dead." Elisha agreed. "What happened to everyone staying in their own rooms?"
"Hey don't look at me, it was Lady Dirtybum over there who woke me up for midnight frolics in the forest. She can be really persuasive when she wants to be." Jamie explained with a nod toward Sonya.
Everyone turned to look at her.
"What can I say? I'm an evil, evil woman." Sonya stuck her tongue out at the rest of them and after a moment they all chuckled.
Gwen and Elisha might have been somewhat angry at being left out of Sonya and Jamie's little early morning dalliance in the dirt. Yet seeing the pair of them the covered in muck with bits of twig and leaf sticking out of their hair and expressions of feigned innocence on their faces was just so hilarious it was difficult to stay mad for long.
It turned out Jamie's only punishment was that he would be last to use the shower. Sonya had to take her kids to school so she got a get out of jail free card and by the time Jamie got downstairs she had already left with her boys. He felt a good deal better after his shower and the smell of cooking bacon coming from the kitchen made his stomach growl.
He found Gwen and Elisha there. Gwen was tending to a frying pan full of bacon and Elisha buttering several slices of bread. The smell of the meat made Jamie's stomach do a summersault in his belly.
"Ah now here's himself." Elisha smiled at Jamie and he grinned back. "Yeh hungry?"
"Could eat a horse." Jamie admitted.
"Well we've only got pig I'm afraid." Gwen turned to look at him and smiled.
Gwen was wearing a conservative black dressing gown and had yet to get dressed properly, her feet remaining bare on the kitchen floor. Elisha was wearing a short denim skirt and a white cotton tank top leaving her arms and most of her legs bare, her smooth milky white skin looked highly appealing in the early morning light.
He stepped over to both women and kissed them good morning. He felt Gwen's mouth melt against his and enjoyed the slow, sensual lip lock that followed. Elisha by contrast made up for with passion what she lacked in subtlety, giving him a fiery kiss that stirred parts of him that he'd previously thought Sonya had taken care of for at least a week.
"Okay well now I'm hungry for something completely different." He joked.
"Well what do yeh think we plan on doing all day long?" Elisha's whiskey coloured eyes sparkled with mischief as she turned back to butter the bread and purposefully bumped her denim clad bottom against his crotch.
"And what about the few tonnes of gold we've got stashed in that field?" Jamie nipped the teasing backside with his fingers.
The frying pan clattered down onto the hob and Gwen spun around, her eyes wide in shock. Both Jamie and Elisha turned to look at her in surprise.
"Uh, Jamie? I think we might have forgotten to mention something." Elisha suggested.
"Aha." He concurred. "Yeah Gwen apparently Allison knew about this stash of buried gold in a field a few hours outside the city. We found it. I'm pretty sure I'm a squillionaire."
"A sexy squillionaire." Elisha added with a pretty grin in his direction.
"I stand corrected." Jamie grinned back at her.
Gwen's jaw hung open for a few seconds longer before she found her senses and turned off the heat to the frying pan. She'd splashed cooking fat over the oven though thankfully none of it had harmed anyone.
"Jamie that's wonderful!" Gwen re-discovered her voice box and flung herself at him, wrapping her arms around his shoulders causing her generously proportioned breasts to squeeze against his chest.
"Yeah. I'm thinking of buying a mansion in the countryside and becoming a recluse." He pondered as his arms encircled Gwen allowing his hands to give her bottom a playful squeeze.
"A sexy recluse!" Elisha practically sang before moving over to fork out the bacon in the pan onto the bread.
"Definitely a sexy recluse." Gwen smirked whilst brushing the tip of her nose against Jamie's.
"Me and 'Leesh were gonna go and unload some of it today. Feel free to tag along; we could use all the help we could get. I hear solid gold is heavy." Jamie said.
Gwen's smile faded a little.
"But how in the world are you going to be able to do anything with it Jamie? I'm pretty sure someone owns this field and if there's anything found in it like that then it's theirs. Plus, you can't exactly march into a bank and say 'Hey, change me this hoard of gold bullion for whatever it's worth' can you?" She warned. Elisha turned her head to look at them; the expression of concern was apparently contagious.
Jamie leaned forward, kissed Gwen gently and then let her out of his arms to move over and snag one of the sandwiches Elisha had made.
"I wouldn't worry about that. I can take care of it. Though I could probably use a lawyer to help me sort through it all. Know anyone I could call?" He said whilst wiggling his eyebrows playfully. Gwen was after all a recently unemployed lawyer herself.
"Jamie I did criminal law. This stuff's different." She explained.
"You'll manage I'm sure." He replied confidently before taking a bite out of his sandwich. "Mmm, thish ish good."
Gwen's expression of worry didn't abate however as she continued looking at him with concern.
"Look Gwen," Jamie swallowed the mouthful of bacon and bread. "It'll work. Allison wants it to work and she usually gets what she wants. Believe me this is gonna be easy. Plus on the outside chance that it doesn't work then I still come home to three amazing women. Either way, I'd call that a happily ever after." He took another bite.
