One Thousand Miles

Chapter  |  Not So Warm Welcoming

Part  |  One

The first two weeks after giving birth to Cameron was great. A lot of John's family member's stopped by the house with gifts or just to meet him. They were all so nice and generous that it put the biggest smile on my face and made me think that things were going to be just fine. I haven't seen one sign of the John I was living with before we conceived Cameron and I hoped it would stay like that.

Things between my husband and I were a whole lot better and it made me happy that he changed for me. John has always been sweet, but ever since Cameron was born he's been saying, "I love you" a lot more and always whispering sweet things in my ear. We didn't take things farther until tonight when he arrived home late from work. I was glad when he told me he was working late because I could now decorate the room a little bit, find a nice pair of lingerie in the closet, and still put Cameron to sleep at his normal time. As expected when John arrived home at ten, he would find his dinner in the refrigerator, go into his office after eating and find me here once he was done working.

The moment couldn't be more perfect. One of John's hands was wrapped around me and tangled in my hair while his other was above his head holding mine. Our kisses were fast, somewhat passionate and urgent. My naked chest was pressed against John's while my naked lower half was covered by a blanket. Every movement we made caused the rose petals I had thrown on the bed to either bounce or fall off the bed.

I giggled as John nibbled on my bottom lip before he pressed a quick peck to my lips. "God I love you so much. You're so beautiful," he said as he pecked me on the lips again. "Sexy."

I giggle again and press my forehead against his. "You always say that to me."

He raises an eyebrow as if he were confused. "Do you want me to stop or.....?"

I look at him for a few seconds before leaning in and kissing him. This time the kiss isn't as urgent as the one before and was filled with nothing but passion and love. Once I pulled away I brought my friend up and moved some of his dark hair off of his forehead before smiling. "Please don't."

And with that we went back to kissing sloppily and urgently. John's hand that was tangled in my messy blonde hair slowly skimmed down my back towards my bare bottom underneath the blanket. I could him poking and I knew he wouldn't be able to hold off much longer, so without warning I lifted my hips and prepared myself for what was about to happen.

He quickly pulled out of the kiss with him groaning and me panting before he tilted his head back into the pillow while one hand went to my hip and dug its fingers into my flesh. He groaned before biting his lip. "Come on Steph, stop being a tease. This is why I never let you be on top."

I laughed and just as I was about to stop with my game, a small wail sounded from next to me. Both of our heads whipped toward the baby monitor sitting on the night stand next to the bed. John groaned before turning his head back around and placing his hands on my shoulders. I try to move out of his grip, but he's stronger than I am. I laugh and try to shake him off. "Baby let go. I can't just Cameron lay there and cry."

He groaned again before moving his hands. "Fine, but I swear I better still be getting some when you get back. Man our son is such a cock block."

My eyes widen and I quickly look back at him as I climb out of bed. "He's a baby John. He has needs just like you do and don't worry I'll come back and take care of your needs," I say with a wink.

He groans bites his lip as he watched me pull on his light blue button down shirt. I buttoned up a little past my belly button before looking back at John who still had still lustful look in his eyes. 

"What?" I ask even if I already knew the answer.

"I'm horny and you wearing my clothes really isn't helping anything or anybody so could you please go take care of Cam before I lose control," he says as he closes his eyes tight.

I giggle before quickly skipping out the room and shutting the door behind me. My smile widens as I come closer to my son's room and once I reach it I'm showing teeth. I crack the door open and peek inside before opening the door all the way and stepping in. I quickly walk over to the blue bassinet in the corner of the room and peek inside to find my red faced and teary eyed son. His small mouth was open showing off his pink gums and small tongue. I pout as I watch him continue to cry and wave his arms around before slowly picking him up. I rest his small covered head on my shoulder before bringing my hand up and patting him lightly on his bottom. I hum softly to him as I slowly walk over to the wooden rocking chair Alexandria has bought for me just a day after I brought him home.

"Shh, it's okay mommy's here now," I coo as he continues to cry. I pat his bottom lightly again and he slowly starts to calm down. "You smell great and I just fed you before I put you to sleep so you must of wanted mommy's attention huh?"

I continue to whisper to him and lightly pat his back and bottom when he starts to get fussy. Once he finally goes back to sleep I continue to sit there and expect to be there for just a few more minutes, but a loud yawn breaks free from my mouth and my eyes begin to droop. Maybe I could just rest my eyes for a few minutes. I'm sure John wouldn't mind one bit.

But a few minutes turn into fifteen and after that I'm out like a light.
