Frisco texted me every hour with a status update. Everything had been quiet on the home front, and nothing out of the ordinary had caught his eye. When I pulled into the driveway, he was waiting for me outside.

“Everything okay?”

He nodded and absently rubbed the back of his neck. “Yeah, everything is fine.”

“Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost, then?”

He dragged his eyes to mine. “I realized something today.”

“And that is?” I twirled the key ring in my fingers, trying to keep my anxiety under control.

“I want a family. Spending time with Suzy and the girls has made me realize that I want that too.”

I trapped the keys in my fist and laughed. “You scared the fuck out of me.” I punched him in the arm and shook my head. “You can be a prick sometimes.”

“I’m being serious. I didn’t think I was ready for kids, but now, I’m not so sure.”

“You better be sure, brother. There’s no return policy on a kid.”

“I know.” He hung his head and ran his fingers through his hair. “I’m going to talk it over with G and see what she says.”

“Suzy’s probably already told her you want them.”

“What?”

“You know Suzy. She can’t keep a secret. If you told her how you feel, I’m sure Georgia is already expecting the conversation.”

“Fuck! I forgot she can’t keep a secret.”

“Yep.” I laughed and glanced over his shoulder, noticing Suzy waving at me through the window.

“You’re going to be a good father, Frisco.” I grabbed his shoulder and gave it a light squeeze. “There are very few men that I can say that about, but I’ve known you long enough to know that any kid would be lucky to have you as a dad.”

The unsure look on his face changed; his lips that had been set in a firm line curved into a big smile. “That means a lot coming from you, man.”

“Now go the fuck home so I can spend some time with my wife.”

He nodded and punched me in the chest. “Don’t make another baby.”

“Fuck you. I’m all about the practice.” I laughed, pretending to pound into someone.

“I’d have thought you’d have figured out how to fuck by now.” He shrugged and waved at me over his shoulder.

I flipped him off, but he didn’t see. When he pulled away, I took a final glance around the yard, grabbed the baby gates out of the trunk and headed inside.

Suzy greeted me with the biggest smile and not much else. “I missed you today.” The sheer, pink nightie she had on didn’t leave much to the imagination.

“Did you have this on in front of him?” I held her at arm’s length and took in her beauty.

“Are you crazy? I had my robe on, and he’s been outside for the last hour. When I saw him pull away, I threw my robe over there.” She pointed toward the white robe that had barely made it onto the couch.

“Sorry,” I said and put my lips against hers. “I don’t want any man seeing what’s mine.”

“Honey,” she whispered. “There’s no man I’d let see me naked besides you.”

“Fuckin’ better not,” I growled. “So what’s for dinner?” I didn’t have the heart to tell her I had a burger at work because she’d probably spent all evening burning the shit out of something inedible.

She rested her hand in the center of my chest and looked up at me with a naughty grin. “Me.”

I lifted her off the ground, smashing her tits into my chest and feeling the hardness of her nipples through my shirt. “Kids sleeping?” I asked against her lips.

“Out like a light.”

Without another word, I tossed her over my shoulder and took the stairs two at a time. She squealed halfway up and I smacked her on the ass to remind her to quiet down. If she woke the kids, our fun-filled night would turn to shit in a heartbeat.

“How am I supposed to stay quiet when you smack me on the ass?”

That statement earned her another tap on her cute, perky ass. “Shush it, woman. Save it for when we’re inside our bedroom.”

“Promise to spank me some more?” she asked and massaged my ass cheeks with her small fingers.

“I plan to do more than that,” I told her as I kicked open our bedroom door with my foot, but not hard enough to make it smash into the wall behind it.

As she slid down my body and her feet touched the floor, I said, “I think it’s been far too long since I’ve felt your mouth on me, sugar. Be a good girl and I’ll reward you for your efforts.”

She licked her lips and glanced down at my already bulging hard-on. “I’ve been dying to taste you all day.” Without hesitation, she knelt and started to undo my jeans.

I pulled my shirt off, throwing it on the floor across the room and readied myself for the feel of her lips on my cock. Although I loved being inside her, Suzy’s mouth was heavenly.

The feel of her small, strong fingers wrapping around my cock made my body jerk forward. My dick led me out of instinct, wanting to be inside her more than anything in the world. When her tongue touched the tip, my eyes closed and my breath hitched. Even after all these years together, there was no other woman I could imagine being with besides my sugar.

Her velvety tongue slid against the underside of my shaft as her lips closed around my length, toying with my piercing. I felt drunk on lust and had to hold on to the wall for support before my knees gave out. She palmed my balls in her hand, moaning deep in her throat, causing the vibration to shoot straight to my spine.

I’d never been quick to come, but seeing her on her knees and sucking me off the way she was, it took everything in me not to make it over before it ever truly began. I cleared my mind and concentrated. It required all of my attention to focus on the tiny things—the scrape of her teeth against my flesh, the softness of her lips around my dick, and the flick of her tongue as it passed over my piercing.

I tangled my hands in her hair, needing her to slow down and wanting to savor the moment. “Slower, baby,” I said, glancing down at her and almost losing it after watching my cock disappear between her lips.

Her mouth opened and she pulled back, holding my cock in her grasp. “You suck a dick and try to take it slow.” She didn’t stop stroking my shaft and playing with my balls as she spoke. “It’s not the easiest thing in the world.”

“Looks pretty easy to me,” I replied and instantly regretted my words.

“You need to shut your mouth or you’re just getting a hand job… That’s if you’re lucky.”

“Sassy little thing, aren’t you?” I smiled down at her, nudging her face back toward my dick.

“Want to spank me?”

The woman loved getting her ass spanked when I fucked her. She got off on it, and I loved every fucking minute of it. I never hit her hard enough to inflict real pain, just the right amount to cause a sting and remind her of where I’d been for the next couple of hours.

“Put your mouth back on me.”

“Or what?”

“Or I’m not going to spank you.” I grinned because it was a complete lie. I’d do anything she wanted. Anything to make her happy.

“In that case—” She wrapped her lips back around me and sucked with more vigor than she had before.

My eyes rolled back and my body lurched forward, chasing her lips. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I pulled back and kicked off my pants. Before I could speak, she ran to the bed and got on all fours. “I’m waiting,” she said, wiggling her ass in my direction and glancing over her shoulder with the cutest damn look on her face.

It was going to be that kind of night, and I couldn’t be fucking happier.

When my eyes opened in the morning, Suzy was still in bed with me, staring down at me. “What’s wrong?” I asked, my voice still gravelly from sleep.

Her hand slid down my chest, disappearing underneath the sheet. “I want to have a party for the Fourth of July. Is that okay?”

“I don’t see why not.” All sleepiness vanished when her hand wrapped around my cock.

“Because nothing would make me happier than to throw a huge party with all our friends and family.” Her hand began to slowly stroke my length, causing me to harden in a few seconds.

“As long as you’re happy, I’m happy.”

“You know what else would make me happy?” she said, toying with my tip between her fingers.

“What, sugar?”

“If you got a vasectomy.”

My hard-on disappeared.
