Sal was happy they got everyone settled at home. He was pleased to see Jared was so helpful. Angel looked as if she was up for the job and really they didn't need that much help from them. Still, he was proud to be a grandpa. Oh, he couldn't help but smile a little more.
He just wanted to squeeze Angel a little more, but he knew it was best that they should go.
"Oh, but he's so sweet," Fan said all smiles as if she'd stay the night if they let her.
"You and I both need some sleep," he put his arm around her wondering just what they'd get up to. Of course, they'd have to eat. He could make breakfast. "Come on now. We need to let them rest."
Of course, another fifteen minutes went by and she was asking Jared all sorts of questions. Did they need to buy baby formula? Did they have enough disposable diapers? They'd made it to the livingroom and Fan stalled.
"Come on, we need to get home." They were only a couple of doors down. He put his arm around her to coax her out of the way. Oh, just what in the world was he going to do with her. Of course, she had some ideas of her own.
It was like a changed woman. She was wanting something by the time they got to their own door and it was not an omelet. She had him backed into the front door before he could get it unlocked. She kissed him hard and even started unbuttoning Sal's shirt.
He was in shock. But whatever. As long as he could keep her from going back and bothering the kids with the new baby.
It wasn't long until she was on top of him in their bed. Maybe they were making up for lost time. Sal just went along with it.
"You'd think we were newlyweds or something," he said about twenty minutes later when it was over. Of course, the clothes were on the floor. There was only the light on in the livingroom to see by, but she was snuggled next to him, happy as a mermaid.
"Wouldn't it be something if we had a baby," Fan laughed as her index finger touched his chest in circles. Sal sighed and just stared at her.
"Wouldn't it?" Sal said automatically as he laid next to her without a stitch on under the duvet. It made him shiver. What was she talking about? "But you wouldn't."
She was full of hot flashes lately. They had to keep the electric fan on at night. Sal always froze and was happy she was like sleeping with a hot potato. He was always in his pajamas while she wore nothing at all. Really, it had taken some getting used to. Especially, since he'd been alone all these years.
Fan had seemed happy about that. She liked having sex every morning and before bed.
"What if we did?" It was like she was drunk on life.
"But we're older," he reminded her.
"Not that old." Fan shrugged.
"But old enough to know better," He moved the fallen hair out of her eyes. "Let's just be good grandparents, why don't we?"
She kept looking at him, smiling. But he knew she didn't like his answer.
He kissed her forehead. It was as if they were ready for some more night swimming. This time he would be on top.

ReplyDeleteGreat post 😊
ReplyDeleteWhat comes around goes around- sorry the title made me think of the song by Ratt. :)
ReplyDelete"it was not an omelet" Ha! So, I guess... they're having fun!!
I'd already copied this line with the intent of saying it rocked when I saw that Greg agreed: "She was wanting something by the time they got to their own door and it was not an omelet." So funny! You really have a way with wry humor, Ellie. And then, later, comes this sweet bookend: "There was only the light on in the livingroom to see by, but she was snuggled next to him, happy as a mermaid." You paint such a cozy afterglow, and I love the simile with the mermaid. Fan wanting a baby threw me for a loop, though. I think I thought she was a lot older. Then again, these days even menopausal women are turning up pregnant, so who knows? It might be a real Father of the Bride II moment, with Fan becoming a grandmom and mom around the same time. We shall see!
