Happy Ending? Pt. 02

I left off at almost the end of March. At that point, my wife Jill, our son Steven and her lover Jane were living at Ann's, Jill's mother's, house. My fraternal twin Amy and son Tom were living with her husband Alex. Ann and I were busy trying to destroy my bed with our lovemaking. It's now the end of April. Much has changed.

First, Jill's and my divorce is in process. Just waiting for a judge to sign off on it. After our son Steven was born my lawyer and I proposed a settlement to Jill which included what I consider reasonable child support, shared custody with Jill as primary, no alimony and we each keep only what we had when we married. The custody agreement has Steven living with Jill but I can arrange with her to see him as often as I want. Travel with Steven by either of us requires the other's consent.

Jill accepted the settlement immediately. No arguments, no counter offers, no stalling. Jill teaches at a local elementary school and, after maternity leave, will go back to teaching. So she'll stay local. We won't fight over who gets Steven on Thanksgiving or Christmas because we'll probably all spend those holidays together with Ann, my parents, Amy, Alex and Tom and my uncle Jake. I figured Jill signed the agreement without any fuss because it was a no brainer. It turns out she signed it without any changes because she had no intention to abide by it.

Ann and I spend as much time as we can with each other. I work nine to five and I'm off on Saturday and Sunday. Ann works 11am to 8pm and has changed her days off to Monday and Tuesday. We spend as many nights together as possible but we always spend Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights together.

Monday's, Ann is off so she usually hangs around my place. Watches me to get ready for work and then does some cleaning. Washes our clothes, does vacuuming, cleans the kitchen and the bathrooms. I tell her I'll do it or to wait and we'll do it together but, because of our work schedules, we don't see each other during the day. Ann says that she doesn't want us to spend our nights together cleaning.

Also, because of her schedule, she doesn't spend as much time as she'd like to with her grandson Steven and her daughter Jill, still at home on maternity leave. I had done some cleaning Saturday, when I was off work, so there wasn't much to do. It was a nice day so Ann decided she'd spend some of the day with Steven, Jill and Jane. Maybe see if they wanted to go to the park. Maybe a picknick. She needed to pick up some clothes more appropriate for the Spring weather anyway. So she drove to her house.

I was almost at work when Ann called, "Jill and Jane are taking Steven on a trip. Do you know about this?"

"No. Where are they taking him?"

"I came home to find them all packed up. A lot of suitcases. Steven's things too. When I got home Jill and Jane were very surprised to see me. And very upset. They didn't expect me. I was supposed to be at your place like usual on Mondays. I asked her what's going on and they told me they're taking Steven on a two-week trip to visit Jane's family in South Carolina. That you know all about it and you're OK with them taking Steven."

"First I'm hearing about this."

"They've packed way more than they'd need for two weeks. I haven't been in their room but from the suitcases it looks like they packed everything. Also, Jane told me before she hasn't talked to her parents in years. They don't approve of her lifestyle. I don't think they're going to South Carolina."

"Let me call you back." We got off and I called Sharon, my attorney, but I had to leave a message, "Jill is taking off with Steven without my consent. She says she's going to South Carolina but that's fishy. We need to stop them."

When Jill got her work visa for Guadalupe, Sharon informed the court and requested a court order preventing her from taking Steven anywhere. But Jill agreed to our divorce and custody settlement shortly afterward and our custody arrangement was already in effect. The agreement specified that Jill can't do what she's apparently now doing. Jill agreed to everything so we thought a court order was no longer needed.

When I gave her the agreement paperwork, I asked Jill about why she got the work visa. She said she applied for it because Jane got Jill the employment letter from the resort and was bugging her to get the visa. Jane filled out all the paperwork and it was easier just to sign the papers than listen to Jane's nagging. She said she has no plans to go to Guadalupe. Since she can't get Steven into Guadalupe without a passport, I wasn't worried. He's not getting a passport without my signature.

But now they're packed up and taking Steven somewhere. I called Jill to ask what the fuck she thinks she's doing. She didn't answer the phone.

I decided to call Amy. If anyone knew Jill's plans, Amy would. I called her. No hello, just, "Where is Jill taking Steven?"

A long silence from Amy and, finally, "You'll have to talk to Jill about that. I don't want to get in the middle."

Trying not to reach through the phone to strangle her, I said, "Amy, what you did to Alex is despicable. It's worse than what Jill did to me and that's saying something. I won't defend you, justify what you did, or excuse it. You don't deserve Alex. But you're my sister and I haven't abandoned you. Amy, If you don't tell me what Jill's up to you will no longer be my sister. I will never talk to you again."

Amy started crying and I waited. Finally, she said, "They're taking Steven to Guadalupe. They're flying to Miami this morning and then taking the afternoon plane to Guadalupe."

"They can't do that. Steven needs a passport to enter a foreign country. How are they planning to get him into Guadalupe? How are they even going to get him on a plane?"

"They have Steven's birth certificate and they think that will get him on the flight to Miami and the one to Guadalupe. When they get to Guadalupe, Jane knows someone who's either ground crew or customs at the airport. I forget which it is but it's an old lover of Jane's. Jane said this woman has helped her get stuff around customs in the past. They plan to pass Steven to her, go through customs and then retrieve him once they're in. Jill and Jane are planning to live there with Steven."

"When's their flight?"

"Mid-morning, I think. Around ten or eleven." After a long pause, Amy continued, "I know I've done some very bad things but tell Alex again I'm sorry and that I love him. And thank you for not abandoning me."

This time I texted Sharon, my attorney, thinking if she wasn't in the office, she'd see the text before she got her messages, "They're taking him to Guadalupe via Miami. Ten or eleven AM flight to Miami. Afternoon flight from Miami to Guadalupe. Can we get a judge to stop them?"

Sharon called me, "Never a dull moment. I contacted the clerk of the court. I'm leaving to see a judge now. If you can get more details: airlines, flight numbers, exact times, that would help with the judge. Makes it more than just our suspicions. How are they planning to get him through immigration?"

"Jane, Jill's girlfriend, knows someone."

Ann called, "They just left. Piled everything into an Uber. I looked in their room and the baby's room. Their summer clothes, all the baby's clothes and most of his stuff are gone. The just left his crib and changing table. They didn't pack for a two-week trip. Wherever they're going, they're going for good."

I said, "They're going to Guadalupe. They think they can sneak Steven in. My lawyer will try to get a judge to stop them. But she needs their flight information. Did you hear them say anything about flights?"

Ann said, "Jane left her phone charging on the kitchen counter and I saw a pop up of a text from the airline telling her that their flight to Miami is on time. I saw the airline, time and flight number. Their flight is at 11:10. I'm going to text you the information."

I looked at my watch. 10:40. They've probably already boarded. I forwarded Ann's text with the flight information to Sharon.

Sharon called about forty minutes later, "I got the court order."

"What happens now?"

Sharon replied, "The Marshal's Service will stop her boarding the plane to Guadalupe. Marshals are going to meet her when she gets off her flight to Miami and present her with the court order. Don't worry, they're good at this and they have plenty of time to get in place.

"The court order prevents her from taking Steven on the plane to Guadalupe. If she doesn't try to get on the plane with him, she isn't in violation of the court order. If she peacefully turns around and heads back home with Steven, the marshals have done their job and will let her go.

"If Jill becomes disruptive, violent, or threatening, they'll take Steven from her. Or she may leave Steven with them and go to Guadalupe without him. Nothing stops her if that's what she wants to do. The marshals will have someone with them who can care for Steven and we'll have to work out returning him to you.

"What you should be thinking about is whether you want to take full physical custody of Steven. Even if Jill peacefully returns home with him, she's still violated your custody agreement. And she planned to sneak him into a foreign country. We have a good shot at getting full custody of Steven. That's what you should be thinking about. If you want that."

Scary. I told Sharon, "I have to think about that. If Jill takes off, of course I'll take Steven. If Jill returns with him.... I have to think about it."

"Just understand that Jill will try this again. A court order won't stop her and next time we might not know to call the marshals. So think hard about custody.

"I'll get a call from the Marshal Service when this is over. They'll probably start boarding the Guadalupe flight around 2:15. The court order doesn't prevent her from being in Miami with Steven, just boarding a flight that takes him out of the country. I'll call you as soon as I hear from them."

I didn't get much work done and talked to Ann on and off. At about 3pm, Sharon called, "They stopped her from boarding with Steven. The marshals are waiting with her until she boards the flight home. She'll be landing at about 10pm. I'll text you the flight information. Jill was upset and crying but she didn't put up much of a fight. Steven's on his way home." I thanked her and we got off.

I called Ann, "They got Jill and Steven before they boarded. They're on their way home."

"I know. I literally just got off the phone with Jill. You called before I could call you. I'm going to pick her up at the airport. She's devastated. Almost completely unhinged. Jane boarded the plane and flew to Guadalupe. She left Jill with Steven in Miami."

I did not see that coming. Neither of us had anything to say for a while. Finally, I asked, "Do you want me to go with you to pick Jill up?"

"Probably best if I get her on my own. I'm not sure how Jill's husband will be much help comforting her for the loss of her lover. She needs her mother."

"I'm off tomorrow so I'll probably spend the day with Jill. Maybe you should skip tomorrow's visit with Steven. I'll talk to her about trying to take Steven away from you but I'm not going to be able to convince her she did anything wrong. And now Jane's in Guadalupe. More incentive to take off. I'll let you know how it goes with her tomorrow. I'm not going to call again tonight unless something else happens. You looked really tired this morning. Get some sleep tonight."

"Yes, Mom." She laughed and we hung up.

I called Sharon the next morning on my way to work. I thought I'd have to leave a message but she picked up. "Let's get me custody of Steven. She's going to keep trying to take Steven to Guadalupe until she's successful. Can I just go get him now and tell Jill he's living with me?"

"No. You can't just take him. We'll file for full custody with supervised visitation for Jill. I'll get the paperwork done and get it expedited. Then, unless Jill agrees to this, we'll have a hearing and a judge will decide. After the stunt she pulled, we're in good shape.

"In the meantime, don't fight with Jill about her taking off with Steven. If you think the two of you can discuss it civilly, fine. Otherwise, just leave it alone. Don't fight with her about you taking custody either. Just walk away. Or stay away. Maybe your mother-in-law can bring Steven to you for visits. Whatever. Just don't fight with Jill. And don't grab the kid." We got off.

I called Ann, "How are things there?"

"Jill spent a couple of hours on the phone with Jane after I got her and Steven home last night. I didn't hear them but when they finished, Jill wasn't happy but Jane was able to placate her. Jill's much calmer. I asked Jill if Jane is returning here or staying in Guadalupe. Jill smiled and said, 'Staying in Guadalupe for now.' I guess they're back to plotting and planning so somewhat back to normal. Jill's still asleep and I'm feeding the baby."

"I just talked to my attorney. I'm going for full custody with supervised visits from Jill. She'll get the paperwork later this week. I don't trust her not to keep trying this shit. I don't want you in the middle of this so if you want to tell her you didn't know I won't contradict you."

"No. I think it'll be best if I tell her. Unless you don't want her to know until she gets the paperwork."

"I don't think it matters."

"OK, I'll tell her. I'll let you know how it goes. Did you get any sleep last night?"

"Yes, Mom." Ann laughed and we got off.

Tuesday, Ann called just before I got off work, "Do you want a visitor tonight?"

"You bet. All rested up and ready for action."

Ann was cooking dinner when I got home. We turned off the stove and got in bed.

Afterwards, lying on her back next to me in bed, Ann was rubbing her stomach, "I'm getting fat. We have to get back to the gym. We haven't been in days."

I reached over and put my hand on her left boob, massaging her nipple with my thumb, "Yeah, this is pretty fat." I changed to her right breast, "This one's even worse. Fat and heavy."

"You think my breasts are fat? I always thought they were too small."

"I think they're perfect. You said you were fat. I just used that as an excuse to massage your boobs."

Ann put her arms over her head, completely open, stretched and said, "Well if you're going to massage, don't stop with my breasts." I didn't stop with her breasts.

After a while, she opened her eyes and looked over at me, "I'm going on a high protein diet. I heard that a lot of protein comes out of here." She took my dick in her hand and began to get me hard. She put me in her mouth.

Afterward, we finally ate dinner. Well, I was starving but Ann didn't eat much. I asked, "Why aren't you eating?"

"Saving myself for desert. I expect to have a protein slurpy later."

I asked, "What happened with Jill? Did you tell her that I'm going for full custody?"

"I don't think she was surprised. She sort of stared into space for a while and then looked at me and nodded. Just nodded and started crying. Didn't say anything. She looked sad but resigned, I guess. She must have known this could happen."

Later, after Ann had her 'protein slurpy' and we were snuggling in bed, I asked her, "You going to work tomorrow?"

"Yes."

"Jill will be home alone with Steven. I wonder if she's planning something."

"If she is, it's probably too soon for her to do anything. Amy is across the street at your parents. I asked her to bring Tom and spend the day with Jill and Steven. She probably would anyway. If Jill gets up to anything will Amy let you know?"

"She told me about Jill's plans to sneak Steven into Guadalupe so, hopefully, she'll keep me informed."

Ann said, "I never found out what happened between her and Alex. All I know is that Alex asked her to leave and take Tom and that he's divorcing her. I always thought they were a great couple but I knew they were having problems. Do you know what happened?"

"I do but it's a long story and it's late. We both work tomorrow. Maybe tomorrow night before you attack me again."

"I'll attack you right now if you don't tell me."

I sighed and said, "Last August, Alex came home from the gym and overheard Jill and Amy talking in the backyard. Jill was clarifying for Amy how she fell in love with Jane, spent two months making love to her but isn't a lesbian. While Jill was explaining this paradox to Amy, Amy kept interjecting how both she and Jill had been wild in college. Lots of boys, lots of fucking. This from two girls who promised their boyfriends they would always be faithful. And still claim they were. Amy went on to tell Jill that sex with Alex was boring, she was bored with their marriage, and that she needed someone like Jane, but with a dick, in her life.

"Alex left them and came to tell me what he'd heard. He was very upset and eventually went home to confront Amy. That's the last I heard about this until late last week. He didn't bring it up again and neither did I. My parents called to tell me Amy and Tom are with them because Alex threw her out. Amy won't tell them what happened. They wanted me to ask Alex. I told them only if Alex wants to tell me. I won't pry.

"Alex called me at work a couple of days later and said, "We need to talk. I'm divorcing Amy and I want to explain to her brother and my best friend what happened. I don't want this to damage our friendship. Can I come over after work?"

"Of course. I'll order pizza.

"Here's what he told me: After Alex overheard Amy and Jill and telling me about what he heard, he went home to tell Amy they're divorcing. Amy was crying and begging him not to divorce her. She said Jill was very wild in college, frat parties, getting high, getting drunk, lots of sex. They were in the same sorority but she and Jill hung out with very different girls. Jill's friends were only interested in parties and hooking up. Amy's friends were more studious and were anything but wild. Certainly not party girls.

"Amy claimed she never did anything but didn't want Jill to think she was a prude or something. So she made up stories about things she did in college. And Amy told Alex she did the same thing when Jill was telling her about Jane and her in Guadalupe. She was reminding Jill about her college escapades so Jill would talk about her time with Jane. Amy said she's always been faithful to Alex. She's never bored with him or their marriage. She loves him.

Ann interrupted, "Alex bought that story?"

"Yes and no. Alex wanted to believe her but he couldn't let it go. It kept gnawing at him. He couldn't shake the doubts. He kept asking her about things she did in college. Frat parties? Bars? Drinking? Drugs? Dates? Amy kept denying she did any of those things. But this went on for months. Finally, he asked Amy what the wildest thing she did in college was. Amy thought a while and said probably drinking wine with friends in the living room of the sorority house. Getting tipsy.

"Then she said, 'Wait, there's something wilder. Jill and I pledged the same sorority. There were five pledges in my pledge class. Our initiation included a party the sorority had at the home of a member of our brother fraternity. Our sorority has a partner fraternity that we have parties with, do charity stuff with. This guy lived close to campus and had a swimming pool. And his parents were away. The weather was still nice so our sorority had a pool party with their fraternity for our initiation. It started in the afternoon and went on until the next morning.

"'The five new members were told to wear bikinis and that we'd be serving drinks to the people at the party. We had to carry a felt tip pen and they would write their drink orders on us. Not our faces, necks or under our bathing suits but on any skin they found that hadn't been written on already. We would get their orders and when we delivered the order, they took the pen to cross out their order on our skin to show it was delivered. Once our exposed skin was written all over, we stopped being servers.

"'Wait, I think there are pictures on the sorority website. Just don't get upset. It was all harmless and innocent.' Amy opened her laptop and pulled up the pictures from her freshman year. Alex said they had a bunch of pictures of Amy, Jill and the other new members in tiny bikinis with writing all over their bodies. Amy and Jill were smiling, having a good time. Alex asked, 'Where'd you get that bikini? It doesn't cover anything.' Amy said, 'The sorority sisters picked them out and had us wear them. We had no choice. That's the wildest thing I did while I was in college. Guys and girls writing drink orders on my body.'

"Alex asked if these were all the pictures. Amy said yes, the pictures stopped because that part of the party was over. She used the outdoor shower to wash off the felt pen writing. Later that night, they had the secret initiation in the guy's living room."

I interrupted Alex, "Why did she tell you this and show you pictures? Why not keep telling you she didn't do anything."

Alex said, "Amy was getting frustrated that I kept bringing up her college years. I think she finally decided if she told me something, bad but not too bad, about what she'd done, I'd leave it alone. 'Okay, I was bad, here are the pictures, now you know everything.' It almost worked.'

"Alex didn't like the bikini Amy wore or that Amy participated in this but it wasn't something he was going to divorce her over. But Alex felt something was off, something kept bothering him, so he kept going back to the pictures the sorority posted. Alex told me he must have looked at those pictures a thousand times.

"In January, he finally figured out what was bothering him. Almost all the pictures were in daytime with just a few in the evening, at dusk. One of the evening pictures was a close up of one of the new members, smiling delivering a drink order. In the background there was another new member with her back to the camera. She was covered in writing. It was clear in the picture she wasn't wearing a top and it looked like she was facing a guy who was happily writing his drink order on her boobs. Alex looked at the earlier pictures and the girl who was topless in the evening picture had a top on in all the afternoon pictures. There were no pictures of the party later that evening.

"Alex said he brooded about that for weeks. Were there more pictures somewhere? Not on Amy's sorority website. He eventually decided to look on the brother fraternity website. Their members were at the party too. He got their website from the sorority's homepage and opened it. They had a link to pictures and that link took him to a bunch of folders, one of which was labeled 'sorority initiation' for Amy's freshman year. Alex opened them. The same afternoon pictures and the evening picture with the back of the topless girl. But also pictures of the party later in the evening. A picture of Jill, with writing all over her body, having her top taken off by two guys. Everyone laughing. Another picture of a guy holding Amy's left boob while he wrote his drink order around her nipple. They were both laughing. The pictures end with all the new members topless. But it's still dusk in all these pictures. Amy said the party went on until morning.

"Alex decided to do a search for pictures and the fraternity. The search gave him the links that included the pictures he just looked at but also a link to some individual's website. The individual turned out to be a member of the fraternity, now graduated, who was at Amy's and Jill's initiation. There were hundreds of pictures categorized by year and type of party. Alex found the file labeled the year of Amy's initiation. The same pictures Alex had already seen but then pictures into the night. By nightfall, all the new members were completely naked. There was a picture of a guy writing his drink order through the wisp of hair on Jill's vagina. Another was writing on Amy's bare ass. One of the girls was bending over so the guy could write on the last of that girl's bare skin. Everyone was laughing and enjoying themselves. No one more than Amy and Jill.

"There were also attached videos. With sound. The first video was of the five new members being led into the house. Everyone cheering. Then a video of opening the drapes of the sliding glass patio door from the pool into the house. One by one, the girls, naked and blindfolded were led into the room and put in front of the sliding glass door. The three sorority sisters in the room pushed each girl down on her knees and a guy came into the room and stood in front of the girl. Each girl pulled down the guy's bathing suit and gave him a blow job. When each girl was done, the sisters got her up, stood her in front of the glass patio door and took off her blindfold. The drapes were open. She was greeted with applause, hoots and cheering and realized she had given the guy a blowjob in front of the entire party. The sliding glass door was opened, the girl was pushed back into the party and the glass door was closed again. Then the next blindfolded girl was brought in. It was the same for each of the five girls. Different guys but each girl gave her blowjob and was presented before everyone for their applause before being pushed out.

"With one difference. The last girl was Jill. Jill was in the middle of her blowjob when the guy stepped back, went behind her, pushed her onto her elbows and fucked her from behind. When they were finished, Jill's blindfold was removed and she and the guy took bows to very loud cheering. Unlike the others, Jill actually bowed. The last video was each girl taking their turn in the outdoor pool shower scrubbing the pen marks off their bodies. The video paned the crowd. Lots of the party goers, men and women, were now naked in and out of the pool.

"Alex showed me all the pictures and videos. Hard to watch. I asked Alex if he confronted Amy about the pictures. 'No, not then.' Alex went on, 'Amy was pregnant when we got married. We didn't tell people until a couple of weeks after the wedding but she was already pregnant.' I told him I knew. 'Amy told me right before the wedding she got pregnant after graduation when she was finally home for good. It would have been better to wait to have a baby but we both wanted kids so not that big a deal.'

"Alex continued, 'After the pictures and videos, I decided to get a paternity test for Tom. He's not my child. So I confronted Amy. About the initiation and paternity. I showed her the pictures and videos of their initiation from the guy's site. Amy said that each time they came back to get the drink orders, each of the girls was forced to take a shot of tequila. By nighttime, she said she was so drunk she didn't know what she was doing. She kept telling herself that if this is what it took to get into the sorority, then she'd have to get through this one night. Just one night that really didn't mean anything.

"'When they took the new members into the house, they brought them into a den that opened on to the pool area. The sorority sisters who were running things assured the girls that the glass patio door drapes would remain closed so no one from the party would be able to see what the girls were expected to do next. They took them back out of the room and one by one they brought the girls back into the room blindfolded. When they were waiting their turn and heard the clapping, cheering and shouting, they were told it was just stuff happening in the pool. When Amy was led into the room blindfolded, they put her on her knees and put something in her mouth she realized was a guy's dick and told her to suck. She didn't know they were going to have her do that and she didn't know that everyone was watching or the filming until they took the blindfold off. She didn't even know who the guy was. She said she was drunk and scared and didn't know what to do. None of the girls knew this would be part of the initiation.

"Except Jill. Amy said Jill was told all the girls were required to have intercourse but each could choose the guy. Jill said she was told all the girls were forbidden to discuss what was planned for the initiation with any of the others. Jill was also told she would be in a room with just three sorority sisters and the guy. The drapes would be closed so no one would see. Jill didn't care about the other girls watching. She figured the guy would be more embarrassed than her by the sorority sisters being in the room with them.

"'Jill chose someone she met at freshman orientation and had been regularly hooking up with. He was at the party as a new member of the fraternity. Jill told Amy later that she put on a brave face but she was horrified. She said that when she saw that everyone had watched her fucking, she was not going to give the sorority sisters the pleasure of seeing her collapse in tears and embarrassment. So she pretended like it was no big deal or that she was actually proud of what she had done. Jill told Amy she would never allow anyone to publicly embarrass her like that again.'"

I thought, "Until I saw her eating out Jane on the beach in Guadalupe. Also good to know that Jill had started to cheat on me with some guy before classes even started." I asked Alex, "Did Amy say why they picked Jill for this singular honor?"

"Alex answered, 'Amy said Jill was the prettiest of the new members. Prettier than any of the current members. They were jealous but they didn't want to reject Jill. She would be a guy magnet for sorority parties and the other members could pick from her leftovers. But they wanted to humiliate her, cut her down to size.

"'Amy said Jill found out that her special event was planned by five sorority sisters. At the time of the initiation, four of the five had long-term boyfriends, one was engaged, and the fifth had just started seeing a guy who she was serious about. By semester break, one by one, Jill ended all five relationships. One after another, Jill moved on their boyfriends and she seduced all five away from the sorority sisters who had planned Jill's public screwing. Jill, of course, moved on once she destroyed each relationship.

"'Amy said that was a fun semester in the sorority house. Lots of drama, lots of yelling and screaming. Jill was not very popular among some of the sisters but she never backed down. Whenever one of the girls demanded Jill leave her boyfriend alone, Jill said she would if the girl would fuck him in front of everyone at the next party. No takers so Jill didn't stop until she got her revenge on all of them.'

"Alex continued, 'I actually asked Amy why anyone would want to join this sorority.' Amy said it was the best sorority on campus, every girl wanted to be a member. All the sororities have initiations like that, theirs was actually comparatively tame.'

"Alex said they moved on to Tom's paternity, 'She told me she thought Tom was mine. But she went to a graduation party at the brother fraternity and drank too much. She had sex. She didn't mean to but exams were over, school was over and she felt her life with Alex was finally starting. She was celebrating and drank too much. She was already off the pill because she wanted to make a baby as soon as she got home. I asked her who the father was and she said she wasn't sure. Was she too drunk to know who he was or was there more than one guy? Amy said it was just one guy who took advantage of her. She was fading in and out, dizzy and too drunk to understand what was happening. Or to identify the guy.

"'That's why I'm divorcing Amy and won't have anything to do with Tom. Any questions?'

"Nope.

"Alex said, 'I got a voice message from Amy yesterday. She wants to get a passport for Tom. I'm on the birth certificate so I have to sign the application. If I'm willing to sign, she won't demand alimony or child support. She won't go after any of my assets. Meaning the house I bought before we married. She wouldn't get any of this in the divorce anyway but my lawyer says it might make the divorce go smoother if we have a settlement where Amy agrees to all this. My lawyer is writing up the agreement.'

"I asked, 'If you sign, doesn't that say you're the father?"

"I have a DNA test that proves I'm not. We're petitioning to get me off the birth certificate. And Amy will have to sign paperwork that states Tom's not my kid if she wants to get him a passport."

"'She only wants a passport for Tom? What about her?'"

"'Amy still has a valid passport from our honeymoon in Italy.'"

"'Where's she going?'" Alex shrugged and shook his head indicating he didn't have a clue."

I said to Ann, "That's all Alex had to say. You came home, we finished the pizza and Alex left."

Ann asked, "You actually saw the pictures and videos?"

"Yes. They were horrible. Why do you think Amy wants a passport for Tom?"

Ann answered, "She's taking him to Guadalupe."

"What?"

"I was at work and tore my blouse on a clothes rack. This was the first week of January, right after New Year's. I drove home to change the torn blouse. I get home and hear moaning from Jill's and Jane's bedroom. I figure it's Jill and Jane going at it until I see Amy's son Tom in a portable crib. Tom wakes and starts crying so Amy comes out to check on him. Jane right behind her. They're both in their birthday suits. Amy sees me and says, 'We weren't doing anything. Jane was just giving me a massage. Please don't tell Alex. He won't understand.' I asked where Jill is. 'She's at school filling out paperwork for her maternity leave.'

"Amy looked guilty, maybe scared, but Jane looked at me stone faced. No guilt, no remorse, no shame. She seemed angry at me for interrupting them. For the first time, I saw the predator peering out of Jane's eyes. It was like she was daring me to say something. To judge her. I had never seen that Jane before. Creepy and frightening.

"So when you said Amy wanted someone like Jane, but with a dick, I'm not sure the dick really matters. Just the Jane part. Amy was either getting way more than a massage or Jane's massages really are something."

"Did you tell anyone about what you saw? I'm sure Jill and Alex would have liked to know. Or did you think it really was just a massage?"

"If it was only a massage, I want one. I didn't tell anyone. I should have but I knew Amy and Alex were already having problems and I didn't want to add to them. Jill was already emotional from being pregnant. Jill would go nuclear if I told her.

Honestly, I didn't really see anything. Just heard Amy's moans and heavy breathing. And none of us needed more drama."

I told Ann to roll over on her stomach. I sat on her ass and started with her shoulders. "Let me see what I can do. But it might end up a massage with multiple happy endings."

Ann replied, "Yum."

I asked her, "So you think Amy's going to Guadalupe to be with Jane?"

"Yup."

While I worked on Ann, I spent some time digesting this and said, "I know why Amy told me about Jill's plans to take Steven to Guadalupe. I threatened her. Why'd you tell me that they had packed up all their stuff. Jill's your daughter. You could have just let her go. Told me after it was too late."

"You're his father. Stealing him away from you is unfair to you and to Steven. I want to see my grandson grow up. The main reason is their relationship. Jill's and Jane's. I know that Jill loves Jane. I thought I knew that Jane loves Jill. But I can't quite fit Amy into the happy, loving relationship I thought Jill and Jane had. I didn't want Steven to be a part of the mess when it all blows up. And it will blow up if Jane is cheating on Jill. Better that this is sorted out here rather than in Guadalupe."

A little more than two weeks later, Jill, Amy and her son Tom left for Guadalupe.

Ann ran home when Jill called and said she was leaving for Guadalupe. Ann called me after Jill left, "When I got home, Jill had two suitcases packed. She told me she can't live without Jane. She's going to her. Jill said it's the hardest decision she's ever made but she knows that you and I will take good care of Steven.

"She told me Amy and Tom are going too. There's nothing holding them here so Amy decided she needed a change of scenery. She plans to stay a few weeks and then come home. Jill said Amy and Jane have become good friends and the three of them should have fun together.

"I asked her about Steven. She said he's asleep. She wanted to leave before he woke up. She called Amy, asked if she's ready, hung up and scheduled an Uber. I waited and watched Jill, Amy and Tom get into a car. They're gone.

"I've already called my boss. Can you take off work too and come over? We need to figure out how we're going to do this."

"I'll be there in twenty minutes."

When I arrived, Ann was feeding Steven on the couch. I sat down next to her, took the baby and Ann put her head on my shoulder, "I guess we're full-time parents now."

I said, "I want you and Steven to move in with me. You can sell or rent this place. You're at my place all the time anyway. It just makes sense. What do you think?"

Ann straightened in her seat, turned to look at me to see if I was serious, then leaned back and started crying. Not the reaction I expected. She said, "I feel as though I'm interrupting your life. You should be with people your own age. Not with me. I'm in the way of you finding someone to fall in love with, marry and have more kids with. Someone in their twenties, not in their forties. You're busy living out your childhood fantasies with me. What happens when all the fantasies have played out? You need to find someone to build a life with. You're not doing that if you're stuck living with me. No. I'm not moving in with you. I can't do that to you."

Neither of us said anything for a long time. Ann continued to cry next to me. The baby fell asleep with the bottle in his mouth. I took the bottle, held him with one arm and put my other arm around Ann's shoulder, pulled her close, and said, "My youthful fantasies played out a while ago. I was twelve and thirteen. I wasn't very sophisticated about sex. Or sophisticated about anything. I actually thought that if I went on porn sites that said I had to be at least eighteen to enter, they would know I was too young and the porn site would tell my parents.

"But I have new fantasies about you every day. I think about you all day. The fantasies are still mostly sexual but I also think about just seeing you, eating with you, going to the gym with you, watching you sleep. Thinking about you makes me smile. Makes me happy.

"I don't need someone my own age. I need you. You're not preventing me from doing anything. I love being with you, every second. I love making love to you. If you're getting tired of me, if it's getting old, no longer fun for you, tell me. I'll understand. But don't tell me you're doing anything to me but making me happy. I don't care about the rest."

Ann replied, "I love being with you. I daydream about you too. I don't want this to end but it has to. I helped raise you for heaven's sake. When I think about that I can't figure out what the hell I'm doing. I'm sixteen years older than you and I'm not getting any younger."

"Either am I. We're always going to be sixteen years apart. So what? I want you to move in with me. Or I can move in here with you. Either way, I don't care."

Ann snuggled closer but didn't say anything. I know Ann. She needed time to think this through. It would be pointless to press her. The baby woke and started crying. Ann put a cloth over her shoulder and asked for Steven. She put him on her shoulder, got up and patted his back while she gently bobbed up and down around the living room.

"You should probably tell Alex that Amy and Tom are on their way to Guadalupe."

I got out my phone and called him. The woman who answers the phone at his garage yelled for him to pick up. "Amy and Tom left with Jill this morning for Guadalupe."

Silence for thirty seconds or so, "They didn't take Steven, did they?"

"No, he's here with Ann and me. Just the three of them went. Jill told Ann that Amy is only planning to stay a few weeks before returning."

"I wonder where she got the money. The tickets are probably expensive and she'll need money to live. I haven't given her any money and as far as I know she doesn't have any of her own. How's she paying for this? And how'd she get Tom's passport so quickly. It's only been a little over two weeks since I signed the application."

"You pay a little more and you can expedite getting passports. Jill and I had to do that before our honeymoon. Took us about two weeks to get the passports. And probably Uncle Jake paid for all that. The passport, their tickets and gave her money. He could never refuse anything the three of us kids asked him for. How does this affect your divorce?"

"It doesn't. The divorce agreement is signed and my lawyer submitted it. Just waiting for a judge to grant the divorce." Alex and I said our goodbyes and got off.

I asked Ann, "Where did Jill get the money to go to Guadalupe?"

"She's been working, saving her money. She's been living here at home. It's not like she's been paying rent or anything. Also, Jane always seems to have money. I don't think Jane made much working for the resort and Jill says things are very expensive in Guadalupe. But Jane always has money. I think she comes from a wealthy family. A family who isn't talking to her."

Steven fell back asleep. Ann checked if he needed changing. He did so she took him to do that and put him down. When she returned, she sat next to me on the couch and said, "You'll end up dumping me."

"I am going to dump you. I already know when. When you're a hundred and I'm eighty-four and you're too feeble to push me around in my wheelchair, I'm going to trade you in for a younger model. Maybe a hot chick who's only ninety."

"OK, I'll start preparing."

"To move in with me?"

"No. For when you dump me when I'm a hundred. A girl's gotta think about and prepare for her future. I have to figure out who's going to supply my protein slurpy."

"Just because I'll be dumping you doesn't mean you can't still get your slurpy from me. I'm a generous man."

Ann climbed on top of me, straddled me, gave me a big kiss and started to pull off my sweatshirt. I said, "We really don't have time for this. We should be packing up your stuff and Steven's." She didn't seem to care what I said.

We both took off the next day and got Ann and Steven settled in my house. I'm off weekends and Ann is off Monday and Tuesday but we decided to look for a full-time nanny. Right now, my parents help out on weekends. Ann's mother, a woman in her sixties but in good health and good shape, helps out when we're both at work. It's a big change being a full-time parent. Maybe someday I'll figure out how to do it correctly.

Jill called Ann at work a few days after she left for Guadalupe. Ann told me over dinner that night: "Jill asked about Steven and told me she misses him terribly. She asked if we were shuttling him back and forth between us. I told her that you, Steven and I are living together in your house. My house is waiting for her to come home and live there. She didn't say anything. No comment on our living arrangements. Instead, she said, 'I'm working at the front desk at the resort hotel with Jane who's back in her old job. Amy and Jane are going to the beach, the bonfire I told you about, every night. They leave me at home to take care of Tom. I don't mind. I don't want to go to the beach at night anyway.

"'Amy didn't come home last night. I asked Jane where she was and Jane said Amy wanted to sleep on the beach. Probably with some or all of the guys who were there last night. They were lining up when Jane left.' Jill asked Jane why she didn't make Amy come home with her. Save her from that. Jill said Jane shrugged and said, 'I'm not here to save anyone. I don't know what Amy took but she was very high. Amy told me she wants dick and that's what she's getting. Maybe she'll get her fill tonight. Amy is either going to get a disease or become pregnant if she's not careful.'

"Jill continued, 'Amy's as bad as she was in college. Back to "staying all night.' I asked her what that meant and she said, 'It's code for boys running a train on you. One after another during a very long night. Amy "stayed all night" at the frat house after finals. Right before graduation. That's when she thinks she got pregnant. Amy told me she was very, very drunk that night. But who knows with Amy. Maybe one of those guys was the father or maybe it was some random guy she met at a gas station on the drive home from school. Tom may have been conceived in a gas station bathroom.'

"I said, 'Or on her honeymoon. I hear that's a thing.'

"Jill burst into tears, 'I fucked everything up, didn't I? Fucked up my whole life. For what? Jane leaves me home at night to go out with Amy. I have to work when Jane has her days off. She took Amy sailing. With Tom. Amy's getting an all over tan. Jane spends more time with Amy than me. I'm left home like a third wheel, the babysitter watching Amy's son. And Amy isn't leaving anytime soon. Jane is paying for her and Tom to live here. Jane has a trust fund inherited from her grandparents. She's very wealthy.

"'I asked her once why she even bothers working. Why not just sit in the sun all day and chill? She said that's how she meets girls. Some girls can lie in the sun all day vegging, reading, listening to music or podcasts. Most guys can't do that. They can't just chill. They get antsy, have to be doing something. When they go off because they can't just sit, pretty, friendly, girly girl Jane is there to help put sunscreen on their abandoned wives or girlfriends.

"'I should have known that Jane wasn't going to change when she went back to work when she returned to the island. Why would she need to keep meeting girls if she was so in love with me?

"'And, of course, when I went looking for Jane on my break, I saw her rubbing sun tan lotion on a girl our age on the beach. A pretty redhead. I checked the redhead and her husband in when they arrived at the resort. Next Jane will suggest to the redhead that she give her a massage. And then that they should go sailing.

"'It's not the same as it was. I don't know what to do. I don't know what I'm doing here.'"

"Jill kept crying. I told her, 'Come home. Steven misses you. I miss you. You have a son and a career here. You're throwing that away for someone who doesn't seem to care about you like you care about her. This is not the relationship you want to be in. Cut your losses and come home to your son.' Jill told me she had to get back to work and hung up."

Ann shrugged and said, "At least she'll be home soon. As soon as she can't stand the pain anymore. We have to talk about sharing Steven with her. I understand you're going for full physical custody and supervised visitation for Jill but I don't think that's necessary anymore. If she comes home, she's not going back. You should think about being more lenient with her seeing Steven."

"You're sure she's going to come home?"

"Yeah. Jane and Amy are flaunting it and it looks like Jane found a redhead to pursue. Jill's tolerance for misery is much less than mine. Probably because she watched me in a miserable marriage when she was a child."

I said, "How 'bout we start this way. Jill can spend time with Steven here or at your place as much as she wants but only in your presence. She can spend limited, scheduled time with Steven and me here or with you and me here after work. For now, either you or I have to supervise. We'll go from there but I'm still going to ask for full custody. Just so I'm calling the shots when it comes to Steven."

Ann kissed me and replied, "You're such a good guy. Thank you." She paused for a minute and continued, "I owe you an apology. I apologized to Jill when she called. I pride myself on being able to read people but I completely misread Jane. I've never seen anything like her. She hides herself so well. She shows you this sweet, courteous, pleasing, lovable girl and conceals who she really is. She's really the girl who came out of the room when I discovered her with Amy. She's always.... calculating. Always hiding until she's ready to pounce.

"I apologized to Jill and I'm apologizing to you. I thought I knew Jane. I told you all in my "get over it" speech that Jane and Jill were a terrific couple. I gave my OK to Jill and Jane being together. I shouldn't have. I sort of closed the door on you and Jill getting back together because I thought Jill should be with Jane. I'm sorry I did that. It was wrong."

"Jill and I were never getting back together. Nothing you said would have changed that. No need to apologize to me. I'm glad you're finally seeing the Jane I saw."

Ann sighed and said, "Maybe too late."

Jill texted her mother two days later. "Can you pick me up at the airport tonight?"

Ann called me, "Jill's coming home tonight, landing about 10:30. I'm going to pick her up and bring Steven, some of his stuff and the portable crib. I'm going to take her back to my house and stay there with them tonight. Maybe tomorrow night too. Depending on what sort of shape she's in. Is that OK with you?"

"If it's not?"

"Then she stays with us in your house. Look, she needs to get reconnected with Steven. He's the best medicine for her. She also probably needs to talk. There will not be a moment I'm not with the both of them. Once I feel she can be on her own, Steven and I will be home."

Two days later, Steven was back in his bedroom and Ann and I were in bed. After Ann had her protein slurpy, this time after I pulled out of her to finish in her mouth, I asked her what happened with Jill. "The night after Jill and I talked, Amy came home from the beach without Jane. So Jill asked, 'Where's Jane?' Amy tells Jill she saw Jane arm and arm with a naked redhead with a great ass walking toward the resort. Jane didn't come home that night.

The next day Jill confronts Jane at work. Jane says it's just sex, doesn't mean anything, the redhead's stay is up in about a week. Until then... just sex. Then Jill asks her about Amy. Jane tells her they started hooking up right after Jill started back teaching last fall. But, again, it's just sex. Jane loves Jill and their sex is great but Jane needs variety. That's just who she is. Jill packed her bags, went to the airport and bought a ticket home.

"I asked Jill if she knew about Amy and Jane when she and Jane were living with me. Jill said she never suspected Amy. Jane didn't really seem interested in Amy and Amy was having real problems with Alex. He overheard Amy telling me that she's bored with him, their sex life and their marriage. That she needs other dicks. Not something a husband wants to hear from his loving wife. After that, Jill thought Amy wasn't stupid enough to chance an affair that Alex could find out about.

"Jill said she actually suspected at times that Jane and I were hooking up. Jill suspected Jane was interested in me. Jill said she didn't realize I was after her husband, not her lover. I let that go. She's angry with me and she's going to get her digs in at me. And there's really nothing I can say. It's true, I am interested in her husband and not her lover."

I interrupted Ann and asked, "Were you ever attracted to Jane? Ever tempted?"

Ann chuckled, "No. I thought Jane was a sweet kid but I can't get this from Jane." Ann grabbed my dick. "She can't provide me with protein slurpies. I've never been interested in women. Nope, never tempted."

Ann continued telling me about her talk with Jill, "I asked Jill if Jane was always like this, flouting the other women. Jill said when they were together in Guadalupe last summer, Jane would occasionally come home very late from work. Once she had lipstick on her t-shirt. Jane doesn't wear lipstick, just lip gloss for the sun. Another time, Jill was sure there was a hickey on Jane's breast. When Jill would ask, Jane never admitted she was with another woman, just always gave Jill some lame story. Jill decided to believe her excuses since Jane's behavior toward Jill never changed. Still loving.

"Probably because Jill made it clear to Jane all last summer that she always planned to return to you. At that point Jill thought she was in control of their relationship so she decided what's what. Jane was a temporary distraction. Or Jane could be a longer-term friend with benefits if Jane was willing to move here and take second place to you. And if Jill could somehow get you to be OK with Jane in your lives. That's why Jill kept telling you that she and Jane weren't romantically involved anymore. Now, just friends. Maybe you'd accept Jane's presence if you believed Jill and Jane were no longer lovers. Delusional, I know.

"Jill may have stayed with Jane last summer but she wasn't willing to give up her life here with you just yet. So Jane had to keep hiding. Jane left Guadalupe to come here for Jill last September. Peak hurricane season in Guadalupe when there are no tourists. No sexy ladies on the beach for Jane to rub sunscreen on. Jane wasn't giving up anything to come here to continue her campaign for Jill.

"So Jill flies back to Guadalupe because she can't live without Jane. Jane figures Jill gave up her marriage, her son, a career she loves, and flew all the way to Guadalupe just to be with her. So Jane doesn't have to pretend, hide, anymore. Jill is just another member of Jane's permanent harem.

"The last straw was when Jill saw the redhead's husband leave in a cab with his bags. His wife wasn't with him and they hadn't checked out. Jill went looking for Jane and saw her and the redhead going into the redhead's cottage. Jill decided to confront Jane and bangs on the redhead's cottage door. The redhead answers, already out of her bathing suit. Jill yells, 'Jane,' and Jane comes to the door wearing only panties. Jane and Jill stare at each other until Jane says, 'You're welcome to join us.' Gesturing toward the redhead, 'She won't mind.' Jill turned and walked away. Jill left, packed her bags, went to the airport and bought a ticket home.

"Jill figured she, Jane, Amy and Tom would soon have a new redheaded roommate. Or Jill would be asked to move out to make room for Jane's new love. She wasn't going to stick around to find out."

I asked, "I wonder what my mother would say about Jane's new girlfriend? Would she tell Jill what she kept telling me, 'It's just a woman so she's not really cheating.'?"

Ann laughed and I asked, "What happens when Jane calls Jill and tells her that she'll stop seeing other girls. Jill's the only one she wants. Come back to Jane's loving arms. They'll live happily ever after."

"Jill said Jane started calling her when Jill was at the airport. Jill didn't talk to her or listen to her messages. She eventually blocked Jane and hasn't unblocked her. I think she's finally seen Jane for who she is and is done with her."

"How's Jill doing?"

"She's depressed, she thinks she's ruined her life. Wishes the two of you had stayed home in bed instead of going to Guadalupe for your honeymoon. She'd have had the life she wanted and still wants. With you. But she says she's glad we found each other. That's not true. She's really unhappy we're together. She asked spitefully if I was still giving you your bedtime bath like I did with the three of you when you were five and you and Amy stayed overnight. She's angry. With Jane, with me and with herself.

"It will take some time but she'll be OK. Even eventually with us being together I think. She needs to be with Steven and I'll take him to see her as much as I can. I told her she should start back teaching now and not wait for the fall semester. She said she'll see if she can. At least she didn't spend ten miserable years with Jane like I did with my husband.

"Life goes on and she'll eventually put all this behind her and move on. But it will take time."

We were in bed, me on my back, Ann on her side leaning on my body. Her head on my chest, leg draped over my legs, running her fingers through my pubic hair. Ann kissed me on the neck and said, "Oh, one other thing. I forgot to tell you, slipped my mind, but I'll be away for a few weeks." I got up on my elbow to look at her. "Yeah, I'm going on vacation. No big deal." I continued to look at her. "To Guadalupe. My lover hasn't given me a massage in forever and I understand Jane gives a really good one. She's offered before. So I'm off to Guadalupe for sun, fun and girly romance. I won't be cheating because it's with a woman." She smiled, a big, mischievous smile and started to giggle.

I turned her over on her stomach and gave her ass a hard smack. "Like hell you are." I sat back between her legs and looked over this beautiful woman spread out before me. This time I started with her butt. "Fuck Jane. I'm going to give you a massage that you'll never forget. Then I'm going to fuck you six ways from Sunday. Just don't blame me if you can't walk tomorrow."

Ann said, "Yummm!"
