Part 131
Tuesday Dec. 3
North's POV
My shift at the diner seemed long. I know Luke is at the house with Sang Baby and I want to be there too. He told me he was paying up his reward which reminded me of my own reward.
Taking her out on my bike was great, but her being all sexy, kissing me on my bike while straddling me.... And I'm hard just thinking about it! Good thing I am headed home. My foot pushes down on the accelerator a little harder.
I had left the diner about 10 minutes before I knew Uncle would be leaving, so I won't have much time with Sang before Uncle butts in. Then we have to wait for him to go to sleep before we can join her in her room. Sneaking around just sucks!
Just as I pulled onto our property I got a text from Silas.
Silas: you should have been here tonight. Erica does a good job teaching sex ed
North: thanks, but I'm sure I already knew what she taught.
Silas: maybe she should hold the class for my dad, it would have been better than "if you make her scream, you're doing it right!"
North: ha! Anything is better than your dad's education. In fact, that is not sex education at all.
Silas: well, technically it is only "sex ed". . did you realize the phrase, 'spreading your seed' is actually fitting?
North: what are you going on about?
Silas: every time males cum, there are 300 million swimmers!!! We literally spread our seed.
North: thanks for that visual, Si. I'm home and only have a few minutes to see Baby before Uncle gets home. Talk later.
Silas: k
I walked in the front door and saw Luke and Sang laying on a blanket, pillows propped under their heads, food in between them, a fire blazing in the fireplace, and they were talking quietly.
"Hey North! We saved you some food." Luke Chimed. I walked over to them looking at what food was available.
"Where is the Protein?" I asked.
They both started laughing. "Cheese is protein North." Sang spoke quietly then smiled. But her smile was off. I narrowed my eyes at her lips, cocking my head to the side.
"What happened?" I asked. "Why does Baby have a fat lip Luke?" I was trying to stay calm, I don't want to yell and miss out on time with Sang before Uncle gets back. I take in a slow breath, then let it out through my nose.
"Sang was getting chocolate off my face when I sat up and my forehead hit her mouth." I looked at Luke and his eyes said it all. He felt bad about hurting her and he knew it was all his fault.
"Did you put ice on it Baby?" I sighed, she wasn't really hurt. It was an accident.
"Yes, North Star. Do you want some finger foods?" She pointed at the 3/4 eaten tray of food. I sat down cross legged on the blanket, between Sang and Luke, down by their feet. I reached out grabbing the baguette and cheese, then placed an olive on top before putting it in my mouth.
Sang started giggling while I was chewing. I arched my eyebrows in question at her. "I put those three foods together and made Luke try it. I guess great minds think alike."
"You definitely have a great mind Baby. This combination blends well. Nice pick on the olives."
"Luke bought all the ingredients."
"You always say Greek olives have the best flavor." Luke announced.
"In Greece, it is a well known fact that men prefer green olives while women prefer black olives. Which did you like best Baby?"
"I agree with the Greeks, the black taste best. Why is that?" Sang asks.
"They are an aphrodisiac. Same with watermelon, asparagus, chili peppers, chocolate, avocados and a few other foods. But for whatever reason, with olives it only works with the green ones for men and the black ones for women." I stated matter of factly.
"That right there explains my love of food and all things chocolate!" Luke exclaims and I chuckled because Sang's face was beat red. Her ankles were crossed right next to me and as I grabbed some grapes and strawberries with my right hand, I traced my left hand's fingers over her ankles.
Baby sighed as she slumped back into her pillow. Luke broke out in a smile. "I meant to tell you today, I really like that skirt on you Baby. You know I like all things black, but with the lace... It just looks more.... delicate." I traced my fingers around her calves and ankles.
Sang smiled as she responded, "I'm not a delicate snowflake flower thing North. But thank you for the compliment." Luke was chuckling.
"Am I going to be reprimanded for telling you I like your sweater? Because the color looks so soft, yet the sweater hugs all your curves in just the right way." He winked at Sang as she blushed. I could feel her leg heat up with the blush.
I popped a few more olives in my mouth and took a few slices of cheese. "Do we get to share the guest bedroom with you tonight? Or do you prefer to be alone?"
"Never!" Baby exclaimed.
"Cupcake, can you clarify? 'Never' didn't really answer North's questions. Unless you are telling us you never want to share a bed with us again." He almost looked heartbroken.
"No, no! I never want to sleep without one of you guys next to me. I don't know if I could anymore. Please, come in. I'll leave the window or door or whatever unlocked."
"Just the window Forever." Just then I heard Uncle's car come to a stop.
"Uncle's here." I announced and removed my hand from Baby's leg. She made a grouchy face when I removed my hand. Ha ha. That's how I feel too Baby. I never want to stop touching you.
"Luke, North..." Uncle stated in greeting. "Little Bird! I'm happy to have you here again." Uncle was smiling a goofy smile. "Are you working again tomorrow?"
"Yes." Sang answered quietly as she sat up.
Uncle's face fell and he looked concerned. I can't figure out why. Neither of us are touching her. She is fully clothed. The food is almost gone so he should know she ate.
"Who gave you the fat lip Little Bird?" Uncle questioned seriously.
"It was just an accident Uncle. Luke's forehead hit my lip. And we got ice on it right away." Sang tried to diffuse the tension coming off Uncle in waves.
Uncle was glaring at Luke. "She better be telling me the truth about this being an accident Lucian. Otherwise, you will have to deal with me." Uncle still looked angry.
Luke's eyes again were repentant, no doubt it was an accident. "I swear to you Uncle, it was all an accident. If it weren't, I would expect North to kick my ass." I chuckled. Uncle seemed to accept what Luke said as he nodded his head.
"Very well. You should clean this up, put out the fire and get to bed. It is a school night after all."
We sent Sang to go get ready for bed and Luke gave her a hug and kiss on the cheek so Uncle would accept he was heading to his own bed. While cleaning up I heard Uncle remind Luke about treating Sang like a lady and that he better be using the condoms he gave him if they were getting intimate. I wanted to laugh out loud but I don't want to hear Uncle's sex talk again myself.
Once everything was put away, I said my good nights and headed to my trailer. I took a cool shower and got in my black pajama pants but didn't put on a shirt. Then I waited for the text from Luke. It seemed like forever before he gave me the all clear.
I quietly crossed to Sang's window and slid it open. "North? Is that you?" Baby whispered.
"Yes, it's me Baby."
"And me!" Luke said from the window just as I got in the room.
Sang giggled. "Well come on then." She pat both sides of the bed for us.
Luke closed the window and I set my phone alarm for the morning. I snuggled in behind Baby and Luke laid facing her. "Night Baby."
"Sleep well Forever."
"I love you both." Baby said as she rubbed her hand over my hand on her stomach and she was touching Luke somewhere too.
----------
I heard a noise that brought me out of my sleep. I squeezed Baby to reassure myself she was right there. I felt Luke's arm over mine. His ankle laid over mine. Sang's fingers were linked into mine. I wonder what that noise was?
"Luke" I whispered.
"Hmmmm?" He mumbled without waking up.
"Did you hear that?"
"What?" He asked with alarm. His head up off the pillow. Sang was stirring under us. The clock on the nightstand said 4:30am. That was too early for anyone to be awake yet. We heard it again. A creak of the floor boards in the living room.
We both moved in unison. Luke checked out the window, nothing. He locked it then to prevent someone from entering that way. I had grabbed a baseball bat that was in the closet. Together we moved toward the bedroom door. Luke quietly unlocked it and did his stealth thing to open the door.
So very slowly he opened it up. I glanced down the hall and saw a figure move. I touched Luke's shoulder, nudging him so he had instructions to stay with Sang. He pat my forearm twice acknowledging my command.
I stepped into the hall, keeping my back to the wall so I cannot be jumped from behind. Raising the bat to a hitters stance I crept toward the living room.
