Dedication
I hope you get everything you want for Christmas
Chapter One
I cracked open the fly of his pajamas, eased it out and sucked on the head until it got hard. Then I began to suck the whole length, easing down to the base and then back up again. I moved slowly.
"What? Who’s there?"
I released his cock. It’s just me, baby.
"Misty..."
I smiled. Yes. It’s me.
I took off my nightdress, straddled him, slipped his cock inside me, and slowly sank down until we were mated together.
In the semi-darkness, I smiled at Josh as he lifted his arms and put his hands on my waist.
I moved my hips slowly, at first. Up. And down. Up. And down. Up. And down...
"Oh! Oh! Oh, baby!"
"Damn, Misty!"
"Oh, baby! Oh! Oh! Oh, shit! Oh, shit! God Damn it!"
The alarm clock jerked me right out of that dream. Groaning, I reached over and slapped the stupid thing before it could make that awful noise again.
I lay back down, listening to the drumbeat of my pounding heart.
That dream was so real. And I’ve been dreaming it a lot lately. A lot.
Waiting for my rapid pulse and breathing to slow down, I lay there for a few minutes, until I saw what time it was. Regardless of how lonely or horny I was, the two most important people in my life needed their mother.
Feeling like I weighed a ton, I slowly got out of bed, padded into the master bathroom to do my business, and then went down the hall to make sure the girls were awake.
As always, I came to Raquel’s bedroom first and cracked the door open. Raquel? It’s time to get up, baby.
I’m up, Mom.
Right away, something didn’t sound right. So I eased into Raquel’s bedroom and sat on her bed. What’s the matter?
There was a long silence.
So I said, Raquel, what is it?
What did we do, Mom?
What on earth are you talking about?
Sam and I. Us. What did we do wrong, to make Dad go away and leave us?
Raquel, you did not do anything wrong. It’s your dad, him and nobody else but him, that made the decision to leave us.
Raquel dabbed at her tears
