Chapter 65

Hmmm, I almost had too much to drink last night. No wonder, seeing Kathy after a few years and she comes in the door with a baby that my sister says looks just like I did when I was a baby and looks enough like Stevie to be a twin. I have another baby, another son. I'm happy for that, but am I that scary that a woman who professed love would keep this from me?

I gotta get up. This has my head spinning. I need to reason the thing out, then I'll be sane.

But what do my girls think of this? What must they think of me? I'm pretty much scum for not making sure that didn't happen with Kathy. Why didn't she just call me, or write me a letter, or tell Glenda? Damn, I'm getting up, I need coffee.

I slid from bed, peed, put on some shorts and T-shirt, and went into the kitchen. It was only four thirty, so I was the only one up. I made coffee for myself then sat at the counter waiting to have that first cup.

"Whoa!" I jumped, when a hand slid around my side and hugged me to a heavy-breasted Sue.

"Sorry, Honey, I didn't mean to scare you," Sue said, kissing my cheek. "Does the news have you upset?"

"An understatement, Sue," I said hugging her back and turning to have her between my legs in a full body hug. "You, Mercy, and Juanita must think I'm really bad for letting something like this happen and not taken care of them."

"Not in the least, Honey," Sue said, hugging me. "We know how you are and how you love us and your kids. The one thing you are not is stingy, and if you knew Kathy needed help, you have been all over it."

The coffee was gurgling, signifying that it was done, so I got up and poured myself a cup then gave Sue a half-cup, along with a glass of orange juice.

She was sitting at the counter now too and said, "When I talked to Kathy before she came, she told me about Greg. She told me that she was afraid to come back down here when he was born, and the longer she didn't tell you, the more difficult she said it was. She wasn't ashamed of having your baby, but she was ashamed she couldn't tell you."

"Sue, the time Kathy and I had together was so short, so intense, but really it was a very short time."

"She knows that too, and said that the horror that went on here during that time drove her away. She was terrified that something would happen to her kids or to her and her kids would be orphans. She just wanted to be gone from here."

"Why would she be so willing to come down here now? Why wouldn't some of those fears still be present?"

"Steve, Honey, her kids think you are their dad, or at least they want you to be their dad. They know you are Greg's dad and they want some of the love they think you're going to give Greg. Kathy knows from Glenda and
Shawna that the place is safe, secure, and full of love now. She had heard how we've expanded our home and the small patio so more and more people can be friends. She's been living up north in a house in a development that you know is probably not all that friendly. She misses her friends here, and she misses you. She wants her kids to grow up here and she wants them to grow up with you as their dad."

I shook my head in lack of understanding and asked the scary question, "How do you feel about this? You and Mercy and our kids are the most important things in my life. Juanita is too, but you two are the mothers of my kids and are carrying four more. Here's this woman walking in the door with four partially grown kids and one about the same age as Stevie. What do you really think about this?"

Sue took my hands in hers and looked at me, "When Kathy was here, I didn't know her well, but I really liked her. Then when you got together with her, I was very jealous. Well, maybe not jealous, but very envious. I wanted you to be having fun with me the way you were with Kathy. Once we were together, I knew you and I were a match. I still believe that with all my heart. I also learned with Mercy that we three are a match, then we brought Juanita into our family."

Sue scooted around on her stool, "Kate is a match too, and we could live happily ever after with her, but she still loves Jim, as she should. He's the father of Carson and she wants him to be the father of this new baby as well."

"When Kathy and I talked the first time, I felt something tug inside of me. As we first met when I picked them up, we hugged and I felt that we were going to be together forever. Kathy pulled back and had tears in her eyes. She told me she felt some kind of pull from me that she couldn't explain."

After taking a sip from her orange juice, Sue continued, "I had Kathy ride up front with me so we could talk. We talked about everything. We even talked about this talk you and I are having right this minute. She knew you would be thrown for a loop, but I told her that you would love to have her and her kids. I want her and her kids. Mercy does too, as she thinks they are very sweet and can't wait to smother them with the love she has to give. You should have seen her with Greg. Mercy had Greg down on the floor with Lizzy and Mike, and was explaining to Greg that they are his brother and sister too, just like Stevie is. The two little ones gave Greg one of their two fisted wet smooches and he was won over."

"Mercy had Kathy come down on the floor and sit with her as she introduced Kathy to the little ones. Mike said, 'Ka, Ka, Kathy, mommy Kathy?" She burst out crying and hugged him to her. She got the same two fisted kisses and was instantly in love with the little ones."

"I know this is fast, almost too fast, Steve, but us three girls want to be four now and we want to have five more kids too. The house is big enough and if it isn't, we'll just add another section. Just relax with it, Honey, and everything will work out. Kathy's folks even want to move down here so you know they all feel good about us."

"There's nothing to do but see what'll happen. I'm surprised Kathy just slid right into bed with you guys last night. That was pretty unreal the way you all seem to get along. I hope it lasts, I hope it works."

Kathy came into the kitchen and said, "My ears were ringing. You guys are talking about me."

I held my arms out and she came to me and stood between my legs. I kissed Kathy softly on the lips, then hugged her too me. "Yes, we were talking about you, we were talking about how we could make you feel comfortable with all of us and how we are going to brainwash you into joining our family."

"No need to brainwash. When Sue and I had our first conversation, I had already talked to Glenda quite a bit. She said that my kids and I would be a perfect fit for this family. She didn't know about Greg yet, but she said over and over to call you and ask to come down. She said I wouldn't be here a day before you guys would try to get me to move in with you."

Kathy reached over and stroked Sue's cheek, "Sue and I talked all the way down here. We only talked about how to make you comfortable with me becoming a part of the family. Steve, I really want to be here. I really want my kids to have a bunch of moms and dads like your little ones. I want them to know that you're their real dad too, though. I don't want them to ever forget Jake, but I want them to call you dad too. The way Mercy and Juanita have opened their arms to me is so special. I fell in love with Sue instantly, and when I met the other two, I knew right away that we would work. Thank you, thank you, Steve, for asking me to come down."

"Sit, have some coffee. Pretty soon it's going to get busy around here. It's getting close to six, so Glenda is probably prowling around in her kitchen waiting for me to turn the light outside on. Maggie is going to show up soon too."

Kathy kissed me, then kissed Sue, "I'll be right back, I have to go potty. If you remember, when I drink coffee, I drink it black."

Sue said, "See, she feels okay about this. She feels better than okay. She wants us, she wants to be a part of us."

When Kathy came back, the clock said five fifty-five, so I turned the light on, opened the doors, then turned the TV on to the morning cable news channel.

Kathy said, "When you do something, you do it up right. The patio is awesome. You had the biggest one around before, and now it's a regular party place. There are probably not as many people that come in the morning as there were last night. That was a pretty big crowd last night."

Sue laughed, "Last night was not big. There will probably be more people this morning because a bunch of the guys were at a hockey game and some were out fishing. They will all be here this morning, so you'll get an idea of the regulars. Tonight is the Friday night gathering, and if there is anything special going, there will be a huge crowd. Just hang on. If you want peace and solitude, this isn't the place. When we need to get away, we go sailing."

"Sue said you guys have a sail boat. I'd love to go sailing. Do you take the kids?" Kathy asked.

"We take everyone," Sue said. "The boat is really big and has room for all of us. We'll take a weekend and sail somewhere. Since your kids are in school, we'll either have to home school them, or only travel when they are on vacation."

Glenda came in the house and gave Kathy a hug. "Did you get some loving last night from the father of your smallest?"

"No, Glenda, we all just went to sleep. I think we were all too nervous. Steve got up at some ungodly hour and was out here drinking coffee with Sue when I woke up."

Glenda looked at Sue, "Hmmmm, that's not the way you treat new companions in your bed, Sue. Perhaps we need to let you kids just hang out together today to get to know one another."

Maggie came in at the same instant Tiny, Ruth, Abe, Alice, Margie, Hap, Crystal, Bear, Mickey, and Samantha came in. They began pouring coffee and settling at one of the big tables, talking about what was going on today.

I told Kathy to just sit back and watch, as watching the interaction is just as much fun as being a part of it.

Shawna came in, carrying Sean and leading CJ, who was leading his dad. CJ came and gave Sue, Glenda, and Maggie a kiss and hug. He looked at Kathy, then came over and gave her a kiss and hug too. He said, "Big kids mommy, Greg's mommy, are you my mommy, too?"

Kathy was won. Something small can make such a big difference. Sue went to get our critters up and had Kathy help her get Juanita and Mercy going. I heard some squeals, and then it took them a long time to come out. When they did, they were all showered and dressed, and the four kids were with them.

J.J. came out and sat with me. "There's a lot of people out there. Do they come every morning too?"

"They come for coffee and breakfast, J.J." At that moment the bellhop from the hotel showed up with a big box of sandwiches and the two big boxes of pastries.

Susan and Kevin came in with Tina and Dennis. Dennis came over to J.J. and said, "After breakfast we're going over to play some basketball at the sports complex. Do you want to come? Later we'll probably get up a baseball game. If your brothers want to come, they should. We'll have a lot of fun."

Kathy said, "What is the sports complex, and where is it?"

Tiny had come inside and said, "The man here decided the kids in this part of the county needed some baseball fields for little league, so he built them. While he was at it, he built some soccer fields, some football fields, some basketball and tennis courts, and a big meeting building. The county even has a permanent field director out here. We make them leave the courts and some of the fields open for the local kids to play on."

Kathy looked at me funny, "I guess you're more than you look, and more than I thought."

Henry was standing there with a cup of coffee and was laughing hard enough to slosh the coffee out of his cup. "He's a hell of lot more than he looks. He's down right dangerous. A good dangerous though, as wherever he goes, luck, success, and happiness follows."

I whispered to Kathy, "He's my brother, so he's blowing smoke to impress you."

"I heard that," Mercy said. "Steve is lucky and he brings happiness with him. He's become a good businessman too. Wait till you get an idea of what all he's involved in. It's kind of hard to believe."

The patio was now jammed with our crew getting ready to head out to work. I asked Hannah if she was going to head toward the plant in the park, but Henry said he was going to his office over there first thing. I asked Henry if he would give Kathy's dad, Carl, a look at the plant. I told him that Carl may be the answer to our machine mechanic supervisor woes.

Henry said, "I'll take him over to Tim's place and see if he wants to start a class on sewing machine repair. Perhaps Carl knows some folks up north that would want to relocate down here. We have the jobs, we just can't find the people."

Carl said, "Show me this place. If you all are what you sound like, I'll get you a dozen men down here fast. They're all looking for work now that the plant up there closed."

I told Debbie that I probably wasn't going to come in today as I was going to spend some time catching up with Kathy and her kids.

After a shower and dressing in my usual jeans and S&S T-shirt, I gave all the little ones a kiss and hug, including the new four who were negotiating with Bessie about going over to the sports complex. Sue said that the first thing they were going to do was that she was going to take them in my truck down to pick them up some bicycles so they could get around.

Before I could offer, the four kids, along with Tina and Dennis, were on their way to wherever it was that sold bikes. Dennis didn't need a bike, but I had often seen Tammy and him on a bike. Tina had one too and she had her Mustang. I guess bikes out here were important for short trips.

I told Kathy, "Come take a ride with me. Let me show you the sports complex and the park." I took her around to where this household had several carts parked. We used a small one and rode over to the sports complex area.

"Wow, Steve, this place is huge." She began counting, then said, you have two softball fields and six baseball fields all the way from little guys all the way up. J.J. plays ball, so he'll like this. There are four, five, six soccer fields and three football fields? And look at that, there must be ten tennis courts, along with six full-size basketball courts. Ben, Carl and Barb play soccer and Barb loves softball. This place is going to be their haunt. Is it safe out here?"

"Kathy, Hap and Bear are the co-managers of our security group out here. Would you feel good if your kids were being watched by Hap and Bear?"

"No shit, they work here? They're security guards?"

"More than just security guards, they supervise the twenty man crew that watches where we live, the sports complex, and the business park. Let me show you or at least give you a quick look at the park."

We drove down to the RV center, where a big bus was letting a bunch of retirees out to go across the street to the cart plant. There were a few folks who wandered over to the huge RVs to kind of do some wishful thinking. So many times, that wishful thinking became a reality, and we sold another big live-in bus.

I told her about the cart plant and how it became the size it was now. We then went to the truck/tractor sales building. It resembles a car dealership, except there are huge trucks in the showroom and out in front of the building. We stopped so we could walk through the maintenance area and the chassis rebuilding plant. I tried to explain what we were doing, but Kathy was a little confused about how much activity there was.

We drove over to the body plant where they were mounting two bodies onto rebuilt chasses. Crystal was in the middle of everything, pushing, pulling, and helping to set it down right so it could be easily bolted on.

From there, we went by what I called the small business mall, where a variety of small businesses flourished. Among them was Billy's place, so I stopped so we could go in and see Billy.

"Holy shit, Kathy, where in the hell have you been? I heard you moved back up north, are you coming back?"

The two hugged and Kathy asked how Connie was, then Kathy said, "I'm moving back to live with Steve and his family. Steve is going to be my kids' dad. Isn't that great?"

"They're lucky kids, Kathy. Steve's a great guy. He'll be a good dad to them. He'll be a good man for you too." Billy looked at me, "You're going to have a full house, Bud. Are you going to have to expand that mansion again?"

"Don't know, Billy, but if we do, we'll just add another section and not worry about it."

We left Billy, then looked at the big school where I explained that inside, people were being taught welding, sheet metal work, mechanical techniques, diesel mechanics, small engine repair, fiberglass forming, and if we get lucky, perhaps sewing machine repair.

Kathy said, "So you were serious? You'll really do something with my dad?"

"Very serious, Kathy. Carl is with my brother, Henry, right now, checking out what he has to work with. We need to establish a group to take care of our own equipment instead of farming it out. We don't get perfect work out of contract people the way we should, and our people lose time making clothes. If they can't have confidence in their machine, they don't do their best and they are unhappy. Our people demand of themselves to do a good job. We don't push them to hurry, we push them to be exact, to do a good job on every stitch and cut."

As we drove toward the huge clothing plant complex, Kathy said, "Is that all clothing factory?"

"Actually, Kathy, there are six separate factories there, in the center is a cafeteria for the entire park, and a very large daycare center. We have about two hundred kids in daycare most days, but right now, during spring break there may be five to six hundred kids to take care of. They hire practical nurses and other professional caregivers during these times."

I pointed out into the meadows between the plant and the sports complex, "See those groups of kids? The daycare folks try to get them outside to play a little during the day. They will go back in to watch movies or do crafts. We have to take care of the kids if their folks are going to do a good job."

I drove through the winding roads out to the motel. "This is ours, too. We also lease the buildings for the restaurant across the highway and the other one down the road. There is a new Carrabas just up the road in our little center, and on the other side of the trailer park is a shopping center with Publix and a bunch of other shops. Let's drive back through the main gate so you can see that we do have security."

A young guy who checked every car and truck that entered was manning the gate. When I drove up, he hollered, "Morning, Mr. Sharp." I introduced him to Kathy and told him she would be living here now and that we would make sure everyone knew her, her kids, and her folks. The young guy was very nice and said, "Welcome to our home, Ma'am. This is great place to live and work."

When we got back to the house, Martin was just finishing adjusting bicycles to fit the kids. They were ready for a ride, so they asked Kathy if they could go with Dennis, Tina, and Tammy. Kathy smiled and said, be careful and listen to what Dennis tells you okay?"

"Okay, Mom," came the chorus.

They all rode off, with Tina and Tammy following to make sure everyone stayed together. I smiled that Dennis and Tina were so responsible. I wondered why they were not working today, as they usually worked on non-school days.

When we went back into the patio, Kathy went to sit at one of the small round tables. When Juanita, Mercy, and Glenda joined her, Kathy said, "This is too much. Steve just showed me the business park and all of the businesses there. There must me two, three thousand people over there."

Sue came up and said, "Not that many, but close to two thousand over there now."

"Do they all work for you guys? Is that all yours? How can that be?"

Sue pulled up a chair while I went for coffee. Sue explained, "Steve started his business in the small rental place down the road, then made a deal for a building down that way. I'll take you down to see my plant there too. Anyway, he surrounded himself with people who put out great product and helped him sell equipment. Every time he made money, he put it back into the business. He kept doing this and as you can see, his ideas, his work practices, business sense, and luck have really grown."

Sue had everyone get something to drink, then sit back down. "I had a small business where I sold clothes over the Internet. Steve encouraged me, and with some luck, the clothing business grew by leaps and bounds. I made a lucky deal on a factory across the street from Steve's shop, and let him show my people how to do perfect work and the concept of doing their best. It worked, that place has outgrown itself, and is now three big buildings that employ about six hundred garment workers. We know we can't continue to grow the way we have, but we're trying to help the community at the same time. We train garment workers and Steve has a training center that teaches trades. Every time Steve has had a challenge, we end up growing. Every time we try a new idea, we end up with a new company and continue to grow. This is all overwhelming to you, and it's overwhelming to Steve. I'm used to it, as Steve just keeps coming up with more and more ways for his company to expand."

I had to say something. "Kathy, I'm not the key here, people like Abe, Tiny, Ruth, Judy, Phil, Ryan, and so many more, are what make this place work. When I've given Phil the chance to sell something, he's sold all we can have made. When I give Tiny some money, he invests it and it grows in bunches. Some of it is luck, but most of it is the people who make this place tick. The core is those that you see here in the morning and in the evening."

At that instant, a big truck came and a crew began erecting a big tent.

"What now?" asked Kathy.

Mercy said, "When Phil, Tiny, Ryan, or one of Sue's people have something to announce, we have the folks come out for a Friday night party. We'll have food, lots to drink, some horseshoe and pool games, lots of music and fun, then the announcements. You'll love this, Kathy, it is special. Oh, the caterer's here, I need to talk to him."

Mercy left to talk to the caterer then came back. "Tiny ordered the party, so it's either him, Phil, or Ryan, or all three, that have something to announce. See that, they're going to have two bars in the big tent tonight, so that means a lot of people. Watch, the beer truck will be here any minute with two kegs for out there and an extra one for in here."

Maggie had been out talking to the caterer too and came back in. "Oh boy, barbecue tonight. Barbecued brisket, with some beef and pork roasts. Good eating tonight."

Kathy said, "This is all just so amazing. Let me check on Greg to see how he's doing."

I went inside with Kathy to see Susan and Beth sitting on the floor with all the kids. Bessie was sitting with the two women listening and learning how they were teaching. The older ones were sitting in a circle and the three smaller kids were sitting in the front. Susan was having them use a word, then she would give them another. Greg was having a great time and would smile and answer each time it was his turn. Kathy grabbed my hand and took me back to the patio.

"They're teaching them all how to talk. You, Sue, or Mercy said they did that, but I didn't think they really did. My God, did you hear Greg, he sounded like an adult. Wow, that's really something. Do they do that often?"

Sue said, "Every day they're all here. When we were gone, Susan did it by herself during that time. I think you helped too, didn't you, Glenda?"

"I'm not as good as they are. Sue's mom loves to come out when she's in town. She just adores all of the little ones. When she met Greg, she was all agog over another grandbaby. She'll be spoiling him rotten."

Mercy said, "Wow! Wait till Mom hears we have another baby and four more big kids. I bet she'll be here in a flash. Dad's going to have a fit. He thinks we're a cult anyway, so he's going to flip out over us expanding the family this way."

Mercy said to Kathy, "Get your mom, and let Juanita and I take you over to Dunedin to show you some more of Steve and his guys' dealings. Steve, we won't go out, we'll just show Kathy around a little and fill her in on our trip."

Sue said, "Let's get lunch with the kids, then while they are down for a nap, we'll go to the gym and up to the pool for some sun. If the girls get back, they can come up to the pool too."

Shortly after the girls left for Dunedin, the big kids all came back, riding their bikes, with the new four exclaiming about the tent. Dennis and Tina tried to explain the deal, but ended up just saying, "Wait, you'll see. It's wild with a couple hundred of your Dad's friends here."

There was barely a pause before Dennis looked around, "What's for lunch? Do you want us to warm up some soup and start making sandwiches?"

Sue and I helped Glenda, Dennis, and Tina get stuff ready. J.J, Ben, Carl, and Barb all helped with glasses of milk and getting some high chairs out. Soon more and more people showed up for lunch. There were only about twenty-five, but it was still impressive to someone not used to it.

Henry and Carl came for lunch and met Nancy, who was returning from the other factory. She had been helping Ruth hire new folks for the coming training cycle.

We told Carl that Bessie and Kathy had gone over to Dunedin to check out our charter services there. I told him, "We have some fishing boats, big ones, flats boats, and we now have some sailboats that go out on charter. They should all be in port right now, getting ready to either leave for the weekend or go out for a week or a month. The girls really enjoy sailing."

"What size sailboats do you have? I had a twenty-six footer when Kathy was young. She really liked it."

Sue said casually, "Our smallest is sixty feet, but we have a very nice hundred and ten footer, and our big one is a hundred and seventy-five footer."

Carl choked and blew bits of sandwich all over. "Did you say a hundred seventy-five foot?"

Sue smiled, "We just got back from sailing it to Europe and back. We'll have to tell you about it."

Beth chimed in, "Mercy's mother went with them and I met them in Rome. We did a lot of sightseeing, then when we went to the Riviera, Steve won so much money, they wanted him to leave."

"Oh Beth, they didn't want us to leave. They wanted us to lose some of it back to them," I said, scoffing at the idea that they would make us leave.

Beth went right on, "One of Steve's friends owns part of a casino there and one of the big hotels. The man is super-wealthy, but is always following Steve as he says Steve brings him luck."

Carl said, "Steve, you have so much going on, I don't know what to believe. Henry shocked me when he said you have an air charter service and you even own a Lear Jet. Is that true?"

"Yes sir, the company leases a Lear Jet. The air charter company has a bunch of airplanes. That reminds me, Sue, we need to put our dibs in on trading for the 1900D. Our family is now too big for anything else."

"Get us a Gulfstream, Steve. That would work."

"No way. The Super King Air will be fine. If there are only a couple of us, we can always use one of the smaller 200's."

"Or the Lear, Honey, you know I'm scheduled for the school, don't you? And Mercy is signed up with DeDe to begin flight school next month. We're going to be a flying family."

Carl said, "You really do have all of this going, don't you? I remember you in that little trailer house that was right here when we came to get Kathy and the kids. She was so upset, I thought she was going to have a breakdown. She didn't want to leave you, but she just had to get out of here. She was a little afraid of you though, because of the way you had to be to protect them. You reminded her so much of Jake, that she felt like she was leaving Jake, and knew she wanted to be away from here then."

When we finished lunch, Sue helped get the kids settled down, lying in the living room, then a bunch of us took off for the gym. All of Kathy's kids came with us to see what we did and joined us first on the treadmills, then on the weight machines. J.J. said he had been going to the gym with his mom and had been doing a series of exercises meant for his age to build muscle without hurting himself. He said that he had been teaching Carl and Ben the same exercises, but they didn't come often. The surprise was little Barbara. Of course she wasn't so little anymore, but she jumped on a treadmill and worked herself up to six miles an hour at a very steep incline. She maintained that until we were ready to leave. Her only comment was, "I'll never be a weightlifter or super strong girl, but I'll be able to run forever. That's my goal."

We went home, put on swimsuits, then altogether, including Greg, went to the pool where Beth and Glenda were instructing everyone to put on sunscreen and lotion. The Florida people were already pretty tan, but the northern folks were very pale.

Big Carl almost had a heart attack when Lizzy went running toward the deep end of the pool and jumped in. She sank, then came up floating on her back, giggling. Little Mike and Sean did the same thing, then it was funny to see little Steve swimming past the laboring J.J.

"Are these kids part fish? How could you let them be out in the deep end like that? You're not even out there with them."

Beth said, "Watch, I'll call them over."

Beth hollered, "Sean, Mikey, Liz, come out of the pool for a minute."

All three little ones rolled to their tummies and sort of swam, dog paddled to the side. They pulled themselves up and onto the concrete, then went over to stand in front of Beth. She wiped the water from their faces, gave them all a kiss, and said, "Okay, go back and play, but play down in the shallow end."

She forgot to tell them how to get there, so they ran together to cannon ball into the pool, then did their awkward swim stroke to the shallow end. Beth took Greg by the hand and said, "Come on Greg, let's learn how to swim."

In no time at all, she had Greg floating on his back. Sean, Mike, and Lizzy kept floating right by him as they enjoyed the water. I'm sure this inspired Greg to learn faster.

Glenda and Maggie were busy telling everyone that these were Kathy's kids and for those that remembered Kathy, she was telling them that Kathy was coming back down to live.

Mercy, Juanita, Kathy, and Bessie all showed up in their swimsuits to join us at the pool. While Mercy and Juanita were making sure the northern ladies had enough lotion on them, Bessie was talking a mile a minute, trying to tell Carl everything she saw and how beautiful the two big boats were.

Bessie turned and looked out toward the pool and squealed, "Greg's going to drown, he's out in the pool, look, isn't someone going to get him?"

Mercy said, "Mom's with him, she's probably teaching him how to swim. See the other three little ones, floating on their backs. See Stevie, he really is swimming well already. Watch this, Mike Honey, Lizzy, Sean, come here for a minute."

The three little kids did as they had before, doing their awkward crawl stroke back to the pool side in front of us, then climbed out. Mercy gave each a hug and kiss on the forehead as she wiped the water from their faces. "Do you want Daddy Steve to throw you in?"

Three smiling faces began nodding with Lizzy saying, "Trow me in, trow us in, Daddy."

I picked up Liz, swung her back and forth a couple of times then pitched her into the pool. Giggling all the way, she landed in the water and submerged, coming back to the surface on her back, squealing with glee.

Mike and Sean were hollering, "Legs, legs, legs." This mean that I should pick them up by the ankles swing them back and forth then pitch them head first into the pool yelling, "Alley Oop." When I picked Mike up by the legs, he was yelling, "Spin me, spin me." This always scared me so I went near the edge and when the area was clear, I tossed Mike into the air so he was turning over and over until he splattered into the water. He too surfaced on his back yelling, "More, more, Daddy."

"My goodness, aren't you afraid they will drown?" Bessie asked.

Sue said, "Not really, they love the rough stuff but Steve watches them real close when he gives in and tosses them in. We've made them comfortable in the water in case they fall off a boat when we're not fast enough to catch them. When they are on deck, they all have to wear life jackets, but this will help them to be unafraid in the water until we can get them back out."

Mercy then said, "Besides, Florida kids need to know how to swim early, when they're young. Now that we have heated pools and can swim all year round, the kids need the exercise."

Kathy said, "Just look at Greg, he's floating on his back and already trying to swim like Stevie. The fastest is little Robbie, with Tia a close second. These kids are great. My older ones will enjoy playing with them."

Tina came out of the pool to talk to Susan, her mom. "Mom, you need to talk to the rec center people. They don't have me scheduled for lifeguard duty this next month at all. I told Debbie that I was going to do lifeguard work and not to schedule me at the shop. I don't think I did anything wrong."

Susan looked at Sue, and Sue said, "I'll ask about it. Perhaps the rec center manager didn't understand that you want to work. They think that since you're related to Steve, you're covered up in cash. They don't know Steve and his family very well. He isn't cheap, but he thinks everyone needs to work."

Kathy asked with a laugh, "And what would you have me do, Master?"

I swatted her on the bottom and said, "You may have enough to do taking care of kids. I suppose you could be added to the group that takes care of the house and kids. With five more, we'll need the help."

Bessie said, "Include me in that group. I want to be around all you folks as much as possible."

I did my fast laps until I was winded, then we went back home so the kids could get a snack and rest for while, as this evening would wear them out.

While everyone seemed busy preparing for this evening, I slipped back to the bedroom and laid down for a short nap.

As I became conscious, my hand was grasping a large unfamiliar breast. It was larger than Juanita's, but not as large, and softer, than Sue's or even Juanita's. My mind didn't want to wake up but my hand against a bare breast was sinking in.

As lips touched mine, I opened my eyes. Kathy was smiling as she kissed me. She was lying with me, topless with just her swim bottoms on, and a leg over mine.

"You know what I said about a ready made family. I guess you're finally taking me up on it. I love you, Steve. I know this is quick, but this is right. This is what is supposed to be. Your ladies told me to come wake you up this way. They said you enjoy being kissed awake."

I hugged Kathy to me, continuing to massage her large soft breast. Kathy said, "They're not as big as Sue's, but they still enjoy you playing with them. Your son still wants to nurse. I have to keep them covered or he latches onto one of them so fast it'll make you laugh. I guess I should warn the ladies, as I'll bet he goes after Sue and Mercy."

As she said that, I bent to suck a large nipple into my mouth, swirling my tongue around the areola and nipple. "Oh yes, Steve, suck them, love them for me."

With the continued passion, Kathy was soon pushing my swim trunks down to get at my raging hardon. My hand found its way beneath her bikini bottom and was massaging her soft wet lower lips.

"Take them off, push them off, I'm ready, oh so ready, please, Steve, love me."

Magically, our bottoms were off and Kathy pulled me on top of her while grasping me and pushing me directly into her. She was tight, so very tight. She didn't feel like a mom who had given birth to five kids. It took several in and out thrusts to oil me up enough to bury myself in her depths.

"Oh God, that feels so good. Oh Steve, that feels so good. I've missed you. You were the last man that I had and I'm glad that you are the first since then. We made Greg in our passion and now I'm so hot, we're going to make another unless you put something on or you let me suck it out of you."

Kathy was slowly swiveling her hips up to me then pulling back to repeat the thrust again. It was slow, agonizingly slow, but oh so sexy. Our rhythm picked up until her hips were rapidly meeting my fast thrusts. Kathy's pussy was clutching me like a vise as she held my lips to hers to keep from screaming. When she finally relaxed, my will power to keep from letting loose was at its end. I began pulling out from Kathy, but she was holding my butt to her with her heels. "Kathy, let me up, let me pull out, I'm cumming, Kathy, let me up."

Two large squirts were already deep in her, but I still pulled from Kathy just far enough that my dick was between us. She pulled me down on her as what was left of my juices shot up between us. I had not completely lain down on her when the third shot went up to her nose, with a stripe down her lips, chin, throat, and chest. Our lips meshed, with us both tasting what I had just shot there. The act of us kissing with a cum chaser must have been exciting, since she came with a shudder again as we kissed and hugged.

"I don't know whether I really wanted you to pull out, Steve. With all of these pregnant women, I feel I should have another."

"Oh no, Kathy, your body has done its share. You got a healthy dose of my sperm way up in there, but let's save you for loving and mothering. You've given this life five wonderful children, you're quite a mother."

"I love being a mother, especially to children that come from men I love."

"Perhaps it's time for me to consider a snip job, but that wouldn't help with the way this group plays some times. We need to think about a way you won't get pregnant.

"Rhythm doesn't work worth a damn with me. Ben, Carl, Barb, and Greg are proof. I'm going to need more than some loving a couple of days after and a couple of days before my period. You're going to have to use rubbers or I'm going to have to use something.

Kathy said, "You know, at first I thought that perhaps when we partied in the hot tub, Charlie or Jim might have done it to me, but even then I knew it was yours. When Greg came out, there was no mistaking who his dad is. Now you'll have to worry about how to keep him from having another brother or sister." Then she teased, "If you didn't already fix me up."

As we lay, still pressed together, not letting all the juices escape from between us, Sue and Mercy came in the bedroom. "Gotcha," Sue said, and lay down behind Kathy, kissing her neck and reaching around to caress her breast.

Mercy lay behind me and reached between us, then brought her hand out, looking at the juices that came with her. She tasted her fingers and said, "Aged perfectly, it's definitely a recent Steve vintage, with a perfect flavor."

Kathy began laughing and Sue scooped her hand between us and said, "Ah, wasted fluids. I'll bet you told him that you weren't protected. If you had kept your mouth shut, your pussy could be swimming in this stuff."

Kathy was giggling at the two girls, when Sue said, "You've had enough babies, Kathy, and when Mercy and I have ours, that will be enough for our bodies too. We need to take care of ourselves so we are around for our grandchildren."

Kathy said, "Steve was just telling me enough was enough. We weren't fast enough and he got a couple of good shots up in there. I thought another little girl would be nice, but he says no. I'll have to find a good birth control method, or Steve will have to use rubbers all the time."

"We'll look together," Mercy said. "Shawna is using a new pill that she's comfortable with. Sandy and Mandy are using the same one and they said they are doing fine. Margie uses the Norplant, but says she's going to switch to the pill Shawna's using when her renewal comes up. Then there's Crystal, who's daring Bear to get her pregnant. She's definitely on her way, as she says she's fucking him at least twice daily until she's pregnant."

Kathy asked, "Are they getting married?"

"Crystal says she couldn't care less about getting married," Sue said. "She just wants Bear's kid. She told me if he asks, she'll say yes, but she wasn't holding her breath."

Kathy and I got up and took a quick shower. We could hear the party outside winding up to a gentle roar.

The place was packed when we went outside. It was just five fifteen, so it seemed everyone was ready for a party and most had taken off a little early. Kathy checked on all her kids, to find them having a great time with other same age kids from the park. J.J. was helping the kids park cars, while Ben and Carl were watching all the activity in awe. Barbara was busy with Beth and Glenda, making up vegetable trays for the tables from the bags the caterer had brought.

I sat at the bar talking with Ryan, Tiny, Abe, Jeff, and Phil. They were all excited about Phil's shows that he had been putting on. Abe says that each time Phil gave a seminar, his rebuild orders shot up. He said the super lift orders were at the highest rate since we started, and we were sending some of our work to St. Louis since we couldn't handle it all. Ryan said St. Louis was getting a lot of west coast and central Gulf coast orders too, and were now as backordered as we were in Florida.

"Tiny," I said, thinking of a good solution, "Let's go ahead and build another superlift repair plant, or at least move what we have into a bigger facility. I know how to get the rest of the Gulf coast business now that I've been to Ireland. We'll have stuff barged in. I'll bet we can pick up a lot of business from the rest of the Gulf ports, some Mexican ports, and we haven't even considered Puerto Rico. Any port close enough to ship by barge should be good. We'll need port crane services and probably our own trucks to get them from there to here."

"Sounds good, Steve, I wonder what barge companies do general hauling between Tampa and other ports. I'll do some leg work and perhaps it will relieve St. Louis of the lower Midwest rebuilds. Since the port isn't as busy with shipbuilding as they were, there may be a building near the water we can lease. I'll have Ben check on that. Abe, you were saying you had several prospects for mechanics, we may need them."

I raised my hand to toast the key men around me. We were all smiling, happy to find another way to do business. As the time passed, all of Kathy's kids came up to me and sat with me for a few minutes. Little Greg was getting a ton of attention as it became known he was another of my offspring. I was still embarrassed that he had been on the ground for so long and I had not been taking care of him.

Carl and Bessie were sitting on one of the love seats in the lounge area of the patio, sipping beer and watching people. They had wandered around outside through the big tent and mingled with all the people there for the evening.

After lots of barbecue pork and beef, with potato salad, corn on the cob, and lots of green salad, Tiny got out the microphone and plugged it in.

"Gather around, folks, I need to say a few words."

Everyone knew Tiny and Phil could get long-winded, so almost all made a pass at one of the bars to refill their beer cups and mugs.

"First and foremost, we want to welcome back Steve and his family. Sue, Mercy, Juanita, Kate, Missy, and Beth, all said Steve was generally a good boy while he was in Europe. I'll let Phil tell you how good, except that while our leader was in Ireland, he decided we should be in the manufacturing business over there. Steve made arrangements for us to begin making carts and "hear this," a whole new line of lifts and super lifts designed by our own Abe and the techs within the company."

That brought applause and hollering.

"You know he's done it again, because Phil will tell you, he's just shown up in places and we've received orders.

"The Canadian operation in Montreal is in the black. That means that we have sold enough to recoup all of our capital outlay for startup and actually make money in operations. The new manufacturing facility of carts is not complete yet, but will be soon. Jeff is working on a production line up there, including some fancy robotics he's been designing. How about a hand for Jeff and the group of robotics nerds he has now. We'll be using them in Ireland, too."

More applause and hollering.

"Okay, here's Phil, let him tell the real story."

"The first port Steve intended to hit was Greece. But surprise, surprise, he passed close enough to Gibraltar for the port authority people to make out the S&S on the sails. Sure enough, they called in a very nice order. Our rep over there had talked to them already, but the big boat validated our presence."

"Next was Greece. Steve visited with the distributor in Greece and stimulated him enough to see his sales actually triple his entire output from last year. The rep over there doesn't know what's doing it, but I do, Steve was there."

Sicily was next. There Steve helped resolve a service issue on some new generators. His help convinced the distributor that we were real over here, and his business orders have tripled as well.

"In Rome, Steve only visited one afternoon with the distributor, but when Steve asked the man if he could help, the man gave Steve some materials in Italian for when Steve and family were sightseeing. The result was the Vatican has ordered a complete installation of backup generators."

Lots of applause and hollering, with some hoots and whistles thrown in.

"The family went to the Riviera and I'm told visited some nude beaches there."

That got a lot of hisses and hollering with some yelling, "Take it off, take it off."

"Steve's presence caused the yacht club, a group of hotels, and three casinos to order very big backup generator packages. It seems he became conspicuous in the casinos, and when they checked him out, they found out more about S&S and what we can do for them."

"Oh yeah, Steve and family met another family in Rome and the two families traveled together to the Riviera, then England, and then to Ireland. You've already heard about the new Ireland plant, but you didn't hear how the Liverpool government bought a new generator system and the British government is entertaining our bid for the backup generators for the cross channel tunnel. According to Tiny, not including Ireland, Steve has made the company enough to pay for his boat and all his expenses for the entire trip, plus add a sizeable contribution to our 401K plan."

"Now that I told you what I know, here's a guy that witnessed Steve in Monte Carlo."

I wasn't looking at Phil and Tiny up at the bar, because all he was doing was making me blush and look away. Then a very familiar voice said, "Steve doesn't know I'm in town, but I have to tell you, don't ever play cards with him. He's so lucky, Interpol even checked him out."

I stood up, "Dewey!" I yelled, "What are you doing here?"

"I've been found out now, but I have to tell you how Steve has affected my life. Steve's been instrumental in finding me my life mate, Sheila. He was key in helping my brother up in Alaska. He saved my butt off the coast of California by almost single handedly dispatching some bad guys. Then my friends, he showed me how to gamble, or should I say, I followed his lead in Monte Carlo. We had another big winner, Mercy's Mom, but Steve was the one that kept pushing all his winnings back onto the table over and over again. He kept telling us to stop, as he was trying to give some money back to the casino, but he kept right on winning. He finally tipped the croupier more money than the guy probably made in the last five years and cashed out his chips. The casino manager was using a crying towel the whole way. So I'm here to tell you, any wild story you've heard about how well Steve did gambling, believe it. I recommend that he should be banned from the Indian Reservation and the Hard Rock Casino. Anyway, I want to thank Steve for helping my staff select your company for the lifts and generators for all of my properties."

The crowd really applauded. I'm sure they thought Dewey was blowing some smoke up their butts, but they loved the way he delivered the message."

Sheila was with him and was holding onto Michelle, next to Ryan. I looked around and found Sue holding little Dewey. My family and friends keep sneaking people in on me.

Tiny took the microphone and said, "Now our leader has a couple of words."

I didn't have a couple of words. I didn't have any words. I was speechless.

I took the microphone, "Okay, I'm not all that lucky. It was the combination of my friends and family that make me lucky."

Looking around, I continued, "The service problem in Sicily was actually resolved by Abe, who happened to be in Montreal asleep when I called. He woke up, knew right what the problem was, and instructed me step by step how to resolve the problem. Abe gets the credit.

"All the rest of the activity areas were coincidence. People saw the S&S signs and reacted. The Vatican thing was a little spooky, as I had to try to talk to a priest who was in charge of the building mechanics. Neither one of us could make out what the other was saying, but he recognized the brochures and paperwork and was smiling broadly when I left. He was probably thinking, "That dumb American, I'll buy his stuff in spite of his intellect."

"I'm a believer in taking advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. The Ireland thing is just such a deal. It's a big deal, I know it's a big deal, and the couple of hundred people we're going to hire over there will know it's a big deal. We should all be excited about this one."

"Before I shut up, I want to thank all of you for coming tonight and be sure to introduce yourself to some out of town folks that are coming down to stay. Carl and Bessie, please stand up. Kathy, please stand, has five beautiful children and used to live across the street. She is special to me and will be coming back here to live permanently, as well. If you get a chance, say hi to all of them."

"Now enjoy yourselves and be sure to make use of our driver program if you even think you might have had enough."

"Oh yeah, Tiny and the accounting gurus don't know this yet, but I have a company wide announcement that affects every person employed by S&S enterprises here in the U.S, in Canada, and our foreign employees. Next month, everyone will receive a ten percent bonus of all wages, overtime, and commissions for the month. Earn a hundred, get a hundred and ten. Taxes will kill you, but so what. Sell a little extra this coming month, work some overtime next month, whatever it is, and get an extra ten percent. Don't panic, Tiny, I have it covered."

Instead of hoots and hollering, there was stunned silence.

"If it's too much I can always cancel it."

Then there was hollering, applause, back slapping, whistles, and hoots. I handed the microphone back to Tiny who just shut it off and set it down, looking at me.

Tiny leaned over to me and said, "Do you have any idea what our average company wide monthly payroll is?"

"No, don't care either. You know the money I made from the Mexican oil deal, use it. If you need more, let me know, I'll get you some more. The people have done more than I could ever ask. This isn't enough, but I know I can't ever double wages again."

"It won't be that much when you start talking about the wad you made from the oil deal. I think you're skating mostly tax-free on that, too. The money you re-invest in the company doing this will offset your federal taxes on the deal this year too. I'll get a guy working on a projection for you."

"I don't care how much it is, Tiny, it's for you and all the people. If there's enough, make the ten percent affect their 401K plans too."

Sue came up to give me a hug and to return little Dewey to his dad. "You're giving away the farm again, Honey."

Dewey said, "That's a chunk of money, Steve. Can you really cover that?"

"Probably with what I won in Monte Carlo, Dewey. You haven't heard about the Mexican oil deal, it'll blow you mind."

Sue said, "I forgot about that, good idea, Hon."

Tiny leaned over and whispered into Dewey's ear. Dewey jerked up looking at me, "No way. If I didn't know how Steve was, I wouldn't believe it. Really, that much?"

Dewey got close to me and said softly, "You cheapskate. You should have given them at least a fifty percent bonus." He was laughing as he went to the bar for a beer.

Kathy came up to me and said, "You've done all this since I left. I know you were beginning to be busy just when I left, but you were on vacation then. This whole thing has happened in just a few years. It's wild, Steve, almost scary, but a good scary, not like before. Every person here loves you and wants to make the company better. You can't fail with that type of attitude. This is amazing."

She gave me a hug and kiss, then followed Sue back to the table full of women.

Dewey asked, "Is she someone I should know?"

I looked at him and said, "She was here when I first came to this then little park. I lived in a tiny one bedroom trailer with a fairly large covered patio that Abe rented to me. Kathy witnessed some really bad times with bad guys out here and it scared her off. You heard about all of that before. Well, she left, but she left with a part of me inside her. She never told me. Sue invited her down to visit and found out about Greg, the little boy, and now Sue has invited her to stay, permanently."

Dewey looked at me, "Steven Gregory Sharp is your full name, how did she find out what your middle name was?"

"Kathy and Glenda are good friends and talked to each other often ever since she left. Glenda didn't know about the baby, but told Kathy my full name. Get's ya, doesn't it?"

"Well, you can't let her leave with another of your kids; I guess you have another lady. Wow, she has five kids, including your little one. Let's see, with her five and your other two ladies' eight, thirteen of those little suckers. Wow. You're going to be old and gray in no time at all."

Mercy came to tell Dewey that their bags were in the big room near the clothing office. She hugged Dewey, saying, "Thank you for bringing my mom and dad down with you. That was so sweet that you called them. I had called mom to tell her about the new little boy just before you called here to find out if you should call them."

The house was getting full. Beth could go home, but I figured her to stay as Ben had drank quite a bit. If we had to put up one more person, they would have to use a pull-out couch. We did give Kathy a room but she hasn't used it yet. I noticed her clothes in our closet already.

It was then that I saw Merlin entertaining the four new kids with some campy magic tricks. Merlin is always the entertainer.

As the party people dwindled, the caterers began cleaning up. They brought a bunch of leftover food for Saturday lunches and late night sandwiches. The caterer knew I love peppers and left what was left of a huge jar for us all to snack on. They go great with any kind of drink or beer.

Soon, even Tiny was saying goodnight and was led away by Ruth.

The only ones left not staying at the house were Glenda and Shawna. Charlie had left to put their two kids to bed. Kathy's kids were inside and probably all in bed, but Kathy, Carl, and Bessie were with my ladies, Merlin, Missy, Beth, and me, having a last drink before bed.

Carl said, "Tonight was a real eye opener. This wasn't Sue's company at all, but only Steve's. Or I guess that's Steve's and Sue's. I heard about a utility body plant and a T-shirt plant. I heard about all the NASCAR stuff he's doing from several different people. Steve, you're doing too much."

I smiled at Carl, "Every new idea seemed to create a new business that was successful, because people like Phil could sell it, Tiny could finance it and invest the profits, and my people make it so good, that more and more people want what we make. Our biggest problem was qualified people. We then began training them ourselves, just like I said you were going to help with a sewing machine repair class. The next was space, but we lucked into a few deals on land and we just expanded every time we had a few bucks."

Carl shook his head, "I don't know how you did it, but you did. Bessie and I talked and we're ready to come down. I talked to Charlie, the park manager and he says he thinks he'll be able to get us a place on the same street as Tiny and Ruth, right behind you. If we do, can we come over for breakfast and supper?"

"Of course," Sue said. "The ladies take turns planning a meal and helping out with the food and cooking. We have so many people now that it's pretty cheap to feed us all as we buy in large quantities. We have plenty of room and if we need more patio, Steve will just build on."

Bessie wanted to say something, "When Kathy told me she might come down here and decide to stay, I was afraid she was going to be disappointed in what she found, and what Steve's attitude would be. You three ladies and Steve are so loving and close, that I feel it and I feel your love for Kathy and the kids. I'm so happy for you, Dear. You've had some hard times, but it looks like you're going to have a family again, although a much bigger one than I would have expected. You know Sue, your little boy, Stevie, asked me if I was going to be a grandma too. I just had to pick him up and hug him, it was so sweet. Even little Mike came up to me and asked, "Gamma milk?"

Glenda said, "We're all grandmothers or mothers to all the kids. They know who the moms are and who the aunts are, but they really get the grandmas down quick. We control the cookies."

We got a laugh at that. I said to all, "I think it's time to brush our teeth and get to bed. Can I walk you home, Glenda?"

"No, Steve, just watch me as I go. I'll be fine. Watch Shawna too. We all feel secure out here now that you have the security people."

As we watched Glenda and Shawna walk home, Kathy said, "Why do you pay for the security at the park here. Is that a gift or what?"

I pointed to Sue and said, "The park belongs to us now. Sue bought it a while back when the old owner was retiring and considered selling it to a land speculator. That was sort of the beginning of the land deals out here."

"You own the trailer park," Kathy asked? "You're responsible for the large expansion over on the other side and the other recreation center and pool?"

Sue said, "Guilty, but we did it because we didn't want anyone selling our home. The former owner was getting ready to sell the place to a real estate investment company. It was a fair deal and it pays for itself, so it's a good investment."

"That's why the security. You're still protecting everyone, aren't you? Just in another way. You're my hero, Steve. I like it this way better than the other."

Sue said, "Me too. Much nicer."

We all went inside after the last setup of the coffee maker and putting away the last of the food. By the time I had brushed my teeth, the girls were all in bed. As I came in, Juanita was saying, "This new chica gets some loving in the middle of day now. Is our man going to be too tired to do to me what needs to be done?"

Mercy and Sue pummeled Juanita with pillows, then attacked her, pinning her to the bed with each of them nibbling one of Juanita's nipples. Sue wiggled her finger at me and pointed at Juanita's moist gash. Kathy decided to help and stroked me up and wet me with her mouth before I centered myself and drove into Juanita to hear her loudly moan.

While I stroked her, the two girls sucked and nibbled her breasts and fingered her clit. Juanita was thrashing around quickly and would have been screaming, if Mercy didn't have her mouth over hers. Once she was subdued and quiet, Mercy rolled, spreading her legs saying. "Put that thing right there. I'm too hot to wait while you play around with the rest of me, do it, fuck me quick."

Mercy knows that I love to make her squirm, so I buried myself in her then pulled back out to scoot down, kissing her mouth, ears, and throat. On the way by her two lovely breasts, I bit both harder than would be normal, causing her to yelp, but then my mouth took in her clit, sucking and tickling it until Mercy was now screaming into Kathy's mouth. When I rose and plunged into Mercy, Kathy turned to me and said, I love you, love this lady and give her the pleasure you gave me. Soon, Mercy lay totally satisfied, hugging me to her, kissing me, telling sweet things.

As I moved to Sue, Juanita attacked Mercy's center, causing her to squeal and come some more. This time, it was Kathy that helped me make love to Sue. She kissed Sue over and over while I feasted on Sue's pussy. When I was satisfied I had wrung all the orgasms out of Sue for the moment and began sliding in and out of her, Kathy had her mouth locked on one of Sue's huge nipples. As I increased my strokes, Sue became more vocal of her pleasure until Mercy got up and put her pussy over Sue's mouth. This was perfect, as Mercy's pussy was right at my mouth while I thrust into Sue.

Kathy was whispering in my ear, "Come in her, come, come, my Love. Fill her with the juice that made those babies in her. Come, Steve."

I did, very big, huge, and very, very wet. Cum was actually squirting out the side of my dick as I rode Sue, still squirting into her. I was thoroughly sated for the moment. Mercy climbed off Sue's face so I could kiss her pussy soaked mouth to whisper, "I love you" to her. When Juanita pushed me off Sue, I thought it was to be Juanita who attacked Sue but it wasn't, it was Kathy. She loved Sue's gushing pussy until she had it cleaned, making it respectable, but Sue was now a bowl of jelly from coming so much.

The sight excited me enough for me to once again be hard and I got behind Kathy and slid into her from behind. "Oh Steve, you're so big and I'm so sore. Careful, do me slow and soft. Don't come in me, you're right, I shouldn't have any more babies."

On my outstroke, Mercy pulled me the rest of the way out of Kathy and rolled a rubber onto me. She pushed Kathy over on her back and told me, "Love her, Steve, show her how much."

I kissed and licked her everywhere I could reach until she was squirming all over the bed. When I began sliding into her again, she exclaimed, "Oh yeah, you have a rubber, fuck me, fuck me hard, pound me, make us both come one more time."

I did what she asked and we both received what she predicted. We both came and came, only this time I was filling the reservoir of the rubber, making Kathy's orgasm that much better.

We all settled down, with me in the middle and Kathy on one side and Juanita on the other. I was kissed by each of my ladies and Kathy whispered to me, "I love you, Steve, I love you, Sue, Mercy, and Juanita. I'm so happy, I'm so much in love with all of you. This is so different, but so right. I love you."

In a few short minutes, all five of us were asleep.
