The next morning I was surprised that there was no awkwardness between us.
Actually, it was about as far from awkward as it could be. I woke to her kisses covering my face and the weight of her leg moving across my thighs. Like the rest of her, the leg was heavier than it was seven months ago. No longer the lean, distance-runner's leg, it was a momleg, thick at the thighs but tapering nicely I thought.
I was hard, as I usually was in the morning, and she straddled me before scooting forward, lifting herself, and then settling, accepting my length into her body.
"Good morning, Daddy," she said with a bright smile and I saw, for a brief instant, the seven-year-old I congratulated so effusively when she won her first gymnastics meet.
"Good morning, bride-to-be," I said and her smile spread even more.
I sighed as she settled onto me and she giggled.
"You know," she said, her hips moving in a slow, gentle rocking motion, "We don't really need a ceremony. Our last names are already the same after all."
"Would you be happy with that?" I asked.
"Daddy," she said, leaning forward and kissing me, a soft loving kiss, "I've been your wife since you said you wanted me. Anything else is just window dressing."
"And I have been your husband since you said 'yes,'" I said.
The movement of her hips increased and I laid back, lacing my fingers behind my head, making her do the work now. And as her movements got faster I continued holding still.
"Are you going to help me?" she asked.
"Nope," I said, "You need the exercise."
"I could cut you off," she said and I chuckled.
"You could, but you won't, will you?" I replied.
She giggled and moved even faster.
"The problem with marrying your Daddy," she said in an oddly conversational tone, "is that he knows you too well. Now HELP me or I'll be puking on your chest."
That got me moving of course. I started thrusting, matching her rapidly speeding rhythm watching as her oversized and full boobs flopped up and down as she bounced.
She came, grunting and laughing, and then pulled off of me suddenly and ran toward the bathroom, her hand covering her mouth as the morning sickness took her.
She didn't quite make it and I slipped, almost falling, in the vomit on the floor as I made the turn to follow her into the bathroom. That got me laughing, which I was doing as I made that treacherous turn and found her on her knees, her face in the bowl, her back arching, the loud sounds of her retching echoing through the room.
Somehow, this morning, after what had happened last night, she looked different. Oh, she was still my daughter, but she was something else as well. She was my wife and my lover and as such, she needed to be treated differently. And I realized it was going to take some time for me to adjust.
I got her hair back, out of the way, but it was wet with her puke. It felt slimy in my hand but, to my surprise, my cock jumped erect and quivered at the feeling.
My laughter registered on her and she turned to look at me.
It struck me, and I laughed again, that her sickface, her pukeface if you will, was exactly the same as her cumface. Well, except her cumface didn't have thick runners of snot pouring out of her nose and mouth and red eyes with tears overflowing.
"You think this is funny?" she asked.
"No, Teddy, not this," and I rubbed her back softly, "I'm just adjusting."
Before she could say anything else another wave took her and her face was back in the bowl.
Suddenly, it was 19 years ago and it was her mother there, throwing up loudly, and I knew what she liked.
I rubbed her back and told her she was beautiful as wave after wave of nausea wracked her body. She was sweating with the exertion and moaning when her body would allow her a respite before she was sick again, her body rebelling against the parasite growing in her.
I grabbed the old towel I kept handy and draped it over her ass. The way she was straining made me think I would have quite a mess to clean up.
She continued puking and I continued telling her I love her and that she was beautiful, using the same words I had used with her mother.
And the thing is, it was true. Every damn word of it was true. She was beautiful in that way only a pregnant woman suffering through her morning sickness can be. She was beautiful in that way of a pregnant woman with her belly hanging, moving as she retched and heaved. She was beautiful in that way of a woman you love. And it was true that I loved her, now as a lover and a husband, no longer
just
a daddy but still as a daddy too.
Okay, I was a little fucked up right then. I would never deny it.
Eventually, she was reduced to little quivers and deep whooping gasps of breath.
When I was sure she was done, at least that the morning pukefest had passed, I patted her on the ass lightly and said, "Stay right where you are. I'll be right back."
I got up and started the water in the shower. I ran it until it was hot, almost as hot as I like my showers. Once I had that adjustment done, I returned and said, "Come on, Honey, let's get you cleaned up."
And she seriously needed cleaning up. There was a puddle and a pile between her knees and when I pulled the towel off of her ass it looked like it hadn't since I changed her diapers.
"Be careful," I said.
She murmured a soft, "Sorry Daddy" as she stood and sidestepped around the mess.
"No," I said, taking her into my arms in that awkward embrace any man has with a pregnant woman, bowing my back around her belly, "No," I repeated, "You have nothing to be sorry for." I kissed her, the smell of vomit on her breath and the taste on her lips just another part of her right then, not something offensive or disgusting.
I made it a good kiss, holding it until she relaxed into my arms.
When I broke the kiss she smiled up at me, said a soft, "Ewww," and giggled.
She was a bit unsteady, this morning's pukestorm had been particularly bad. But I supported her and got her safely to the shower.
This was another first, and I loved the wonderful closeness I felt as I washed her face, being very careful around her eyes, and then washed her hair. Teddy's hair is very curly, just a tiny bit this side of kinky, suggesting that my ex's family had some African blood in that tree somewhere. It was that curly. I shampooed it, working my fingers through it carefully, and then rinsed before shampooing a second time to make sure the last traces of vomit were gone. I did a conditioner rinse, the thick white creamy goop feeling like I was working semen into her hair.
Once her hair finally hung clean and free I did her body.
I started with her hands, doing each finger separately before starting to work my way down her arms. Once again, I had that feeling of deja vu. The ex, when she was pregnant, complained almost constantly about how the hormones of pregnancy had hair sprouting in the damnedest places. Teddy, apparently, was having the same reaction although, to be honest, I hadn't noticed. But now, seeing that she had obviously stopped shaving under her arms, I decided I'd check closely. I sudsed up her armpits and rinsed them carefully with the handheld shower head.
Then I started on her body in earnest. I did her shoulders, washing and rinsing, and then kissing. I did the interesting spots, those hollows her collar bones made, and the boring spots, the skin over her sternum that separated her very full, heavy breasts.
I got captivated by her belly. Jesus, it was absolutely gorgeous. I washed and rinsed and kissed and then sucked on her protruding belly button. It was the bottom of that belly though, where the stretch marks spread and her
mons
was another round area merging into that beautiful belly that truly got to me. I washed and rinsed and kissed and licked, fascinated by the way that thick curly pubic hair ran up the roundness there. And, of course, those full nether lips needed kissing so I kissed them thoroughly.
