Morning Surprise Pt4

Morning Surprise part 4

Sunday morning, I woke with a slight headache. Too much to drink. I normally spend Saturday night at the police club; I have a couple of pints with my mates, sing a few rugby songs and head on home.

Last night my neighbour and colleague Dave decided that we should get an Indian on the way home. We always have a couple more pints to help wash it down, that is always a mistake. My head would pound away for a few hours; I would be forced to go for a run to clear it, have a shower and I would be fine.

“Are you awake?” Joan said from beside me.

“Yes baby I am wide awake” I said turning over to look at her “ A little hung over but awake”

“Steve how long have you been fucking the girls” was the second thing she said to me.

My mind went into free fall. Fuck how did she find out so quickly, what the fuck was I to say to her that would explain what I had been doing. Do I lie to her, would she know I was lying, of course she would know I was lying. You cannot spend so long together without knowing when your partner is lying to you.

I sat up and looked her in the eye. “How long have you known, that I was sleeping with the girls?” I asked.

She reached across, pushed some hair away from my eyes “I am so glad that you decided not to lie to me. I have known for four days, do you want to tell me what happened”

I felt relieved that she knew all I had to do now was try and tell her the facts, being a detective she would be able to know without me telling her, that it was not planned.

“I came home the other morning, climbed into bed as usual, and you know how I get. I started playing about and before I knew it was not you I was deep inside Sandie. I thought that it was you in bed honest”

“That would have been Wednesday morning, I thought it started then” was her only response.

“Are you mad at me baby” I reached over and took her in my arms; she snuggled onto my chest and said “I was at first, but while you have been on nights I have seen the changes in the girls.

You have turned them from teenagers, who bicker and fight each other at a moments notice. Into women I have watched them share everything with each other, they are polite and helpful. You should have seen them sitting down helping each other with homework, it was for me a revelation”.
I had been holding my breath waiting for her to explode, but the explosion was not coming. “When did you know?” was all I could think to say

“It started with small things. The bedding was fresh on the bed nearly every day, the underwear they have been putting in the wash, was always dry and crusty with come. I keep smelling angel perfume in our bed; it was not hard to unravel. Someone has even been using my rampant rabbit.

”Have you noticed that when you walk into a room now, both girls look at you with adoration and love?”

I have to admit that I had noticed that the girls did always look up when I came into the room; I put it down to the way our feelings for each other had changed. “I have noticed that they do look up when I come in” I said giving her a reassuring hug. “Will this change every thing with us love”

“I hope not” she said “We have always been a close family; this is only bringing us all closer together”

I breathed a huge sigh of relief, I bounced out of bed. My feelings had been raw, I hate lies and now that things were out in the open I wanted the girls to know. “I am going to get the girls” I shouted as I headed for the door.

I woke the girls and said “Our bedroom five minutes family conference”

I rushed back to bed to await their arrival. I snuggled close to Joan. I so wanted to let them know that their Mum was Ok with what had gone on.

They came in together holding hands, they looked a little sheepish. A moment of silence was suddenly broken by everyone trying to talk at the same time.

Joan called everyone to hush “sit yourselves down; we need to talk over what’s been going on”. She said, patting the bed for the girls to climb on.

“We are sorry Mum, we asked Dad not to tell you the day it happened, we felt so fantastic, we did not want anything to stop us enjoying him for just a little while longer.” Mel after telling this to her mother came over and sat at the bottom of the bed.

Sandie was now also perched at the bottom of the bed

“Girls you know that we both love you, every fibre of you is loved by your father and me. I was angry at first when I suspected what was going on. But I have had a few days to think it over. Your father is the kindest, most gentle man that I know and if any one is going to teach you about physical love making I cannot imagine a better teacher” Saying that Joan leant over and gave me a very passionate kiss, filled with love that has always blessed our marriage.

I had no words to say, speechless.
