Chapter 30
"She"s cute," Toby remarked.
"Very," I agreed.
We stood back near the door while Oliver held his newborn baby granddaughter. The expression on his face was nothing less than complete awe.
"She looks just like her mother," he said softly.
"Funny, all of my guys think they look like her," Cat said. She lay back in the hospital bed, looking exhausted but happy. When we arrived, she sent her boyfriends off to have something to eat, giving us time to spend with her.
Oliver scoffed. "She has your nose, eyes and chin. I can already tell she has a stubborn streak."
"Whose stubborn streak?" Cat teased. "I"m pretty sure that started with you."
"Yours, mine, whatever." Oliver smiled down at the baby and kissed her forehead. "Either way, she"s adorable. Just like you were."
Cole squeezed my hand. "It won"t be long until we"re holding our baby," he whispered.
"I can"t wait," Toby also kept his voice down low. "I hope they look just like Marley. Although, they"d be doing well if they looked like me or Cole."
"I can hear you, you know," Oliver said, without looking in our direction. "The baby will be beautiful, no matter what. With Marley for a mother, how could they not?"
"You guys are sweet," I said."
"They"re right," Cat said. "Your baby will be gorgeous. I can"t wait for these two to play together."
"Have you decided on a name yet?" Oliver asked.
Cat smiled softly. "Her name is Sophie. Sophie Wendy Ryan, after Mum."
"She looks just like a Sophie," I said. Having the same last name as Cat was certainly easier than Sophie Brewer-Moss-Grant, or whatever order they chose to put the guy"s last names. Baby Hammond was definitely easier than Baby Davies-Glover-Ryan.
"Yes, she does," Oliver agreed. "That"s the perfect name. I was worried her fathers might insist on Puck or Winger."
Cat laughed. "Don"t give them any ideas."
"Too late," Toby said with a grin.
"There"s no way this baby is being named Puck Hammond," I said firmly.
"Of course not, that would be ridiculous," Toby said. "Puck is just a nickname. Right up until they forget what their actual name is."
"You really like eating hamburgers with beetroot on it don"t you?" Oliver asked him.
Toby cleared his throat. "Good point. Puck is a terrible nickname. We"re totally not going there. No way." He raised his hands in the air and swished them back and forth as if he could erase the last couple of minutes.
I shared a glance with Cole and we both laughed. He gave me a loving smile and a faint questioning raise of an eyebrow.
I looked back at Oliver. Seeing him with Sophie reminded me why I fell in love with him in the first place. He wasn"t perfect, but he was one of the most loving, caring people I'd ever met. Going behind my back was a dick move, but all he wanted was to give me a moment like this. A perfect little life to bring into the world and love. It was the most fucked up, precious gift I"d ever been given.
I nodded once.
"Looks like the new mommy could use some rest," Toby said. He must have noticed the exchange between Cole and me. "Why don"t we leave her to it?" He gestured meaningfully to Oliver.
Oliver kissed the baby again before placing her back in her mother"s arms. He leaned down to kiss Cat"s cheek. "I"ll be back later to see how you"re doing."
"Thanks, Dad." Cat smiled down at her daughter, pure love on her face. She"d never looked more beautiful or more happy.
I realised that, if I wasn"t already pregnant, I would have wanted to be after seeing her like this. I guessed Oliver had a point. He knew me better than anyone. He knew what I needed before I did.
I took his hand as we stepped out of the room, into the corridor.
"I forgive you," I said. "Don"t ever do it again, but I forgive you."
He pulled me to him and brushed his lips over mine. "I won"t promise that I won"t screw up again, but if I do it will only be to make you happy."
That was what I thought. He"d totally do it again. He was never going to stop thinking he knew best. That was something we were going to have to work on.
"Oliver—" I started.
He silenced me with a kiss. "I told you, you belong to me. That hasn"t changed. It"s my job to take care of you. I"m never going to stop doing that, whatever it takes."
"Hey, it"s our job too," Toby said. "That and kicking ass out on the ice."
"Exactly," Cole agreed. "I"d say we all belong to each other."
"Sounds about right to me," I said. "Now, about that huge library…"
Each of the guys held a heavy bag of books in both hands. They carried them into the library and placed them down beside the door.
"You want us to put them on the shelves?" Toby offered. He leaned against the door frame and crossed his arms.
I looked around again at the extensive shelves and chewed my lip for a moment.
"I think I"ll sort them out as I go," I said finally. "I don"t know how I want to arrange them. I mean, do I go by genre, author or book colour?"
All three of them exchanged a glance. I could almost see them thinking, wondering if the last option was a joke or not. Should they laugh or was I serious? Would they offend me if they chuckled?
I watched all of this pass between them, my eyebrows raised slightly. Let them stew on that for a while. It wouldn"t hurt them.
For the record, I preferred alphabetical, by author. Then by genre.
"At least she didn"t suggest placing them with their spines facing the wall," Toby said.
"Do I look crazy?" I asked. I liked to be able to find my books without having to pull them out, one by one.
"You look beautiful," Oliver said. He grabbed my hand and pulled me to him.
"Is that so?" I asked. "I have to say I"m liking this roguish look you have going on." I ran the tip of my finger down his stubbled cheek. "It"s sexy."
"Really? I might let it grow out. I"ve always wondered how I"d look with a beard." He rubbed his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
"I might do that too, if that"s what Marley goes for," Toby said. He rubbed his own chin as though he had a beard that covered half his chest.
"You don"t need to have a beard to be attractive," I said. "If you want to grow one, that"s up to you." I wasn"t going to start telling them how to dress or what to look like. I trusted they"d give me the same consideration. Or else we'd be having words.
"I"ll think about it," Toby said.
Oliver placed his hand on my cheek and turned my face to him before lowering his mouth to mine. "I missed you."
He kissed me like he"d never kissed me before in his life. As if he"d waited millennia for this moment. He kissed me with love, promise and desire.
I slid my arms around his neck and kissed him back, savouring the warmth of his lips and the taste of his mouth.
In the corner of my eye, I saw Cole step over to us. He stood behind me and lightly massaged my shoulders before moving his hands down to the hem of my shirt and back up underneath it.
Apparently not wanting to be left out, Toby moved between Oliver and me and helped Cole to pull my shirt up and off over my head.
Cole unhooked my bra and he and Toby slid it off and dropped it to the floor. Toby cupped my breasts and started to massage my nipples.
At the same time, Cole knelt and pulled down my leggings and panties before helping me out of them.
While Oliver slipped his hand between my legs, Cole undid Toby"s jeans and pushed them down his hips. He wrapped his fingers around the base of Toby"s cock and his mouth around the head.
"I love a guy who knows what he wants," Toby said.
"I love you too," Cole said before swirling his tongue around Toby"s tip and taking him back into his mouth.
"I know what I want," Oliver said. He worked loose the button of his own pants and pushed them down with one hand while pushing me to my knees with the other.
Kneeling side-by-side with Cole, I teased the head of Oliver"s cock before taking him into my mouth as deep as I could. With him all the way down the back of my throat, I sucked, gagging when he thrust in deep.
"I"ll never tire of your mouth," Oliver groaned.
"Funny, I was thinking the same thing," Toby said. In spite of that, he slid himself out of Cole"s mouth and dug into his pocket for something before taking his jeans off the rest of the way. "Cole, clothes off. Now." In his hand, he held a small tube of lube.
Flopping onto his ass, Cole hurried to do what Toby said. Stripping off his clothes and sending them flying every which way.
After a moment, Toby and Oliver did the same thing.
Toby gestured for Oliver to lie on the hardwood, on his back. Looking amused, Oliver actually did just that before pulling me to straddle him and slide down his cock.
Cole knelt right behind me and took the tube from Toby"s hand to squirt some lube onto his fingers. He handed the tube back and smeared the cold lube onto my rear hole.
"Lean forward," Cole said. When I did, he pressed a finger into me, then another, readying me for his cock. He slid them in and out several times.
I moaned, enjoying the sensation of having two of my holes filled at the same time. It was like nothing I ever experienced before. I couldn't have described how good it felt if I wanted to.
"I want your cock," I whispered.
Oliver reached up to wrap his fingers around my throat. "Are you sure you"re ready?"
"Very sure," I said, whimpering with anticipation.
Cole moaned and gripped my hips before pushing himself straight into my ass.
I cried out with the suddenness of his entry, but it turned into a moan of pleasure.
"Lean forward a bit more," Toby said.
I looked back over my shoulder to see Toby kneeling behind Cole, readying him for his own cock. Holy shit.
Cole swallowed audibly, but leaned forward, his head pressed against my shoulder. He groaned as Toby slid inside him.
We were all still for a while before Toby started to move. He set the pace, driving Cole deeper into me and pushing me onto Oliver.
It could have been a rushed, frenzied fuck, but we took our time, moving slowly and carefully in and out, on and off each other. The only sound in the library was panting, moaning and the rush of blood through my ears. I"d never felt so full or so complete. I never wanted this to end.
"I love you," I said to all three of them.
"We love you too," Cole said, his mouth near my ear.
"I"m going to come," I said. "Come with me. Please…"
I pitched over the edge, into the abyss, where the only thing that existed was pleasure and the sound of myself and my three guy's orgasms in unison, like a beautiful orchestra. The rest of the world ceased to exist for an eternity before time started to flow again like the juices of our arousal.
Panting and slick with sweat and cum, I flopped down onto Oliver, holding him close while Cole held me and Toby held all of us.
"I declare this library officially christened," Toby said.
I managed a breathless laugh. "Yes. Yes it is."
"Let"s get cleaned up and christen the rest of the house," Oliver said.
"That"s the best idea I"ve ever heard," Cole said.
"Is the first of many," Oliver said. "I have a lot more of them."
I picked up my head and gave him a stern look. He grinned, not even slightly apologetic.
"All of them are based on love," he said.
I hummed and slid off him. "I guess I"ll find out if that"s true or not."
"It"s true, we have the rest of our lives for me to prove that to you." Oliver pulled me to my feet and, between my guys, we went to christen the first of the house"s showers.
