Babysitting The Desired

Rebecca's POV There's two kinds of people in this world when it comes to situations. When something life altering happens to you.. You either choose not to react and try to keep everything the same as long as you can, or you choose to embrace it and make the best of the situation.. I have always been a person who wants to be a part of the light in everyone's life, trying to brighten it up even if it's just a little bit of illumination on a hard situation. It's seeing the silver lining in anything that happens. There is too much dark in this world, so I will always strive to be the light in it.. I just really hope I made the right decision. Flashback to 5 Years Earlier.... My eyes flutter open to the sound of my alarm echoing so loudly on my nightstand, with my phone moving around the top of it like the energizer bunny.. it's getting my undivided attention from the vibrating on the wood, since that's all I can hear, besides the light sound of upbeat music in this utterly quiet room. I quickly reach over and shut it off before I completely wake up my husband, I want him to get a little more sleep if he can. He works so hard and deserves as much sleep as he can get. I get out of bed with a stealthy pep in my step because I have a second interview today! I was picked out of 300 plus interviews for this starting secretary position.. They say you can work your way up through this company pretty easily if you work hard, and I'm a hard worker.. This is a billion dollar company, so I want to climb as high as I can, and this is just my foot into the company door. To say I'm nervous about this next interview is a complete understatement. I haven't had a new job in years, so this is nerve-wracking, to say the least.. but a hard foreign step is not always a bad one. I sneak on my tip toes across our room and into the bathroom, starting the shower up as I strip every last bit of clothing from my naked body. I step in letting the nice warm water cascade down my body, with the warmth helping wake me up as I bend over, grabbing the shampoo from the shelf. I feel my favorite pair of muscular arms wrapping around me, gripping my waist and lightly patting my ass. I stand up, letting him wrap his body around mine from behind, so there is now no space between us. "I guess I had perfect timing, huh?" Jeremy says into my ear. I feel his hands trail over my hips as I smile and respond, "Yes, I think you did, JerBear." I turn around as we start to kiss with so much passion, which surprises even me because we have been together for 11 years and still have that spark between us, even after 2 kids. I don't know many other couples that can actually say that and mean it. Our oldest is our 10 year old Edward or Eddie we call him.. he is just starting to get to know girls and had some girlfriends here and there, but he is just like his daddy, the star of every single team he is on.. he loves sports and having so much fun with his natural athletic abilities... just as much as Jeremy did, and I feel sometimes like that's all they talk about. Our youngest is our 9 year old Katie or Kitty as most of us call her. She is more of my bookworm, which I don't mind because that's what I have always excelled at are books.. I might not have the best street smarts, but I have book smarts, and that has to count for something, I guess.. but luckily for me, my other half Jeremy has enough street smarts for the both of us. He is very athletic and has always been my knight in shining armor. We have been through so much together, and our love has never wavered.. people could only hope for a relationship like this, and I couldn't be more grateful.. I wouldn't trade anything for this world that I have somehow been lucky enough to acquire. Jeremy and I kiss with so much hunger as our hands trail in some sort of a haste. If you have children, you know how hard it is to get time to just the two of you, especially for some 'sexy time.' We giggle back and forth as Jeremy turns me around, bending me over slightly so I prepare myself to take it all in the quickest pace.. we are so good at the quicky now, we do it all over the place with no problem at all. That's the plus of being together for so long, we know each other buttons to push, that makes us both c*m so easily.. So we get exactly what we want and need while still good parents as long as we avoid being seen by them. I feel Jeremy put his member at my entrance as we hear, "Mom?! Eddie won't get out of the bathroom and I have to go!" Katie whines at the top of her lungs echoing in the bathroom. I groan as I hear Jeremy behind me saying, "Kitty? Tell Eddie he has 5 minutes to get out of there and if he doesn't then I'm coming to get him out." "Thanks Daddy!" Katie praises as she runs out of the room. I can feel his breathe fan my neck before he says, "That's all I need.. right momma?" I giggle and nod as he bends me over giving me the time of my life in about 4 minutes. I know it doesn't sound like much but he can read my body like braille, touching every spot perfectly.. so that's all the time we need to relax ourselves in the small amount of time we have. "So I will see you downstairs my gorgeous wife. Thank you for the morning fun and I can't wait for tonight." He says blowing me a kiss, then shutting the shower curtain behind him. I finish washing up since I feel so much better for today.. at least not as nervous which helps. I get out of the shower drying myself off as I grab my clothing already set out for today. I slip everything on so I can quickly dry my hair and then curl it trying to look my best and as professional as possible by doing my make up accenting my big brown eyes. I just try to accent everything pretty about me which isn't much since I just turned 30 today, so feeling old.. I hate my birthday for no particular reason except for the fact that I'm getting older and I hate it.. that's why Jeremy is excited for tonight.. he got all of us a reservation for this fancy restaurant that's always booked and I have always wanted to go.. actually giving me a reason to really dress up. He always tries so hard for my birthdays when I just ask him to forget about it every year. I just want to concentrate on my interview to do something new and maybe better with my life.. I keep trying all these little jobs to try to get out of my main job.. but nothing makes the same money that I already do. That's why I'm going for this job, it's with a billion dollar company, I have got to make some good money with it.. I have been a bartender for 10 years and I need something else so that I can get some sort of change of scenery. I give myself a once over in the mirror, with approval, before I head down for breakfast. I prance down the stairs pretty easily even though I haven't worn heels in a while. I was half expecting to tumble down our stairs. But luckily for me that wasn't the case. I make it down in no time at all, before anything does happen. Getting into the kitchen to see there are happy birthday banners hanging and balloons floating all over. I freeze in place as I hear, "Happy Birthday Momma!!!" It's my adorable little family with the biggest ear to ear smiles on their faces as they start shooting those mini confetti rockets inside the house. I'm soon sprinkled with confetti from head to toe. That's going to be fun to clean up. No matter how much I hate my birthday I still cannot contain my smile that breaks out across my face as I shake some confetti off.. "Thanks guys!" I say opening my arms as my kids and husband give me a big family bear hug, shaking off more of the confetti just with that contact. "You're the best mom." Eddie comments.. "Yea the best!".. Katie replies with so much excitement in her voice. "Yea! and the sexiest!" Jeremy announces jokingly adding to the excited family compliments making the kids groan in unison, "gross dad!" "What? I know she is your guys mother but she is my wife and I think she is sexy.. to other people who are not related to her, she is a sexy mom.. some might call her a MILF. I know I do." He says as he wiggles his eyebrows at me and I can't help but blush at that comment alone as the kids groan louder than before. The kids let go of me but my husband does not. When the kids sit back down Jeremy pulls me into his strong comforting hold as he kisses me with such enthralling love. We can hear the kids making gagging sounds besides us as I break the kiss and whisper, "We should probably stop torturing the kids with our affections." "Awe come on they get to do what they want on their birthdays, why don't you get to do everything you want." He says into my lips as I retort playfully, "Oh I already got what I wanted." Jeremy chuckles and says with so much excitement, "Yea you did and if you want more I'll be around later!" "Dad! Stop!" Eddie groans as Jeremy retorts back, "Hey she was mine first and stuff like this is the only reason you two exist, so you have to appriciate it at some point, so you will let me love on your mother!" I hear crackling and popping as Jeremy let's go of me with panic in his eyes before he runs over to to skillet on the stove. I think he might have gotten distracted by me coming down and forgot he was cooking breakfast.. I won't ever object, a meal I don't have to cook for.. I'll take. Even if it might be a little charred.. my husband isn't very good at cooking at all but I appriciate the kind gesture either way. "Mommy you look so pretty." Katie says to me as I smile big and say, "Thank you Kitty! I have a SECOND interview with this company so keep your fingers crossed for me." She crosses her fingers showing them to me as I mimic her actions. I walk over to the cabinet grabbing my coffee mug and the pot of coffee already made. I pour me some with a little honey and creamer in it just like I prefer. I have a seat on the kitchen island right next to Eddie. "So Eddie, I have heard your having some trouble in math.. if you need help I can help you tonight but you need to get that grade up if you want to stay on the basketball team." I say with so much warning in my tone as he groans putting his head into his arms. "Ed, my man, your mother is right you know the rules you have to keep your grades up if you want to be on a team.. I thought you were doing good in math at the beginning of the year.. what happened?" Jeremy asks from the oven as we hear Eddie groaning more into his arms. "I bet it's because of BRITTNEY." Katie says with so much tease in her voice. My eyebrows raise as I say, "Brittney? Is that the cute girl who gave you the Christmas present before the break?" I ask as Katie nods and Eddie groans, "Yes mom." I look up and Jeremy has a smirk on his face about the new found crush information.. "Well Eddie.. I know it maybe hard to concentrate in those types of situations but.." I'm cut off by Eddie groaning more not wanting to listen to my mom advice. Jeremy's booming deep voice is the only thing heard in the kitchen, "Edward Michael! You will not treat your mother with that type of disrespect especially on her birthday.. Now she was trying to be nice and trying to help with this situation.. so you say thank you and go to your room.. you and I are going to have a little talk." Eddie without hesitation says, "Thank you mom." gets up, then runs, ascending the stairs quickly and over to his room. I look at Jeremy as he walks past me whispering in my ear. "I'm going to go have the s*x talk with him and make sure he knows what's really happening and maybe that will help.. if you could just watch the food momma I'll be right back down.. love you." He kisses my cheek as I nod and get up walking to the stove. I stir the eggs and flip the bacon and pancakes. "So Kitty.. it seems that your doing well in your classes, so how are things with your friends?" I ask just trying to start conversation. "Sarah and I aren't friends anymore." She says a little quietly but I heard her loud and clear. "What? Why not Kitty?" I ask with concern in my voice as she responds, "She thinks I like her boyfriend but I don't like him and I guess he said something to her about me and now she won't talk to me at all so I really don't know." I humm in response thinking about this.. "Well if she is so willing to lose you as a friend when she won't even listen to you or take your word, then she doesn't deserve to have you as a friend." I throw out that motherly advice as she says, "Yeah your right mom.. and I can make other friends anyways." "That's right baby make sure to always keep your head up." I say to her as she smiles at me and I plate her up some food. I plate up Eddie some food as I hear the multiple footsteps coming down the stairs. I put Eddie's plate out in his place as he sits down and gives me a small grin. I grin back as I stir and flip more at the stove. Jeremy's arms wrap around my waist as he kisses my cheek and I whisper. "How did it go?" He humms and whispers back to me, "I told him about the changes that are happening with his body and what these feelings mean and to just be safe about it.. and that he can always talk to me about anything guy related and I told him to just make sure he is being respectful of the girls he is interested in.. I even shared some horror stories of situations that happened to me in school and I think that made him feel better.. hopefully." "You are the best dad.. did you know that DADDY?" I whisper playfully as I hear him purr in my ear. "Don't you start it again my sexy little MILF or I might just have to take you back upstairs for another round of the best 5 minutes of your life." He says with so much humor kissing my temple as I giggle. I plate up food for him as I turn around in his hold, holding the plate out for him to take. He winks and takes it from my hand as he heads to the kitchen table and pulling a seat out for me. I fill my plate and put the extra dishes into the sink and make my way to the table. I start the morning off with a nice flirtatious filled comments back and forth with my husband as we feed each other our food like some kids who just started dating. I know I'm getting older but somehow he makes me feel so young. Which is how anyone would want to feel on their birthday. I grab the dishes taking them to the sink, Jeremy cuts me off taking the sponge and soap out of my hands. "It's your birthday Becca, just try to relax as much as you can. I'll take care of the dishes and I only have one appointment today so I'll clean the house too." He says so sweetly to me as I turn around wiggling my eyebrows saying, "Wow you really know how to woo a woman don't you.. dishes and cleaning the house.. because they are so dirty right?" I say with humor in my voice as I bite my lip staring up at him. "Oh it is so dirty from us down here last week and the day before... oh and the day before that.." He says playfully as he leans down to kiss me and continues, "I'll even send you pictures of me cleaning in the nude how would you like that?" I fan myself off with my hand as I say, "That sounds like the best birthday present I could have ever asked for." He chuckles and says, "Well that's too bad because I also got you this and I thought you would like this the most." I look at him with confusion as he pulls a ring box out.. I look at him with confusion as I say, "Jer, I told you not to get me anything.. come on you know that restaurant will be expensive enough." I say to him objecting to the spoils he has thrown at me. "I know you don't like getting presents on your birthday and I was going to stick with just helping you out with the house stuff and cooking for you but I do that every year and wanted to spice things up, that's why I got the reservation and got this. He pops open the box and it's a rose gold ring with 4 stones on it and they are all different colors. One is a diamond, the next is amethyst, the next ruby and the last is emerald. "This is a ring with all of our birthstones on it and an engraving." He says to me as I'm still in shock so I pull the ring out of the box and stare at it in close proximity. The stones are gorgeously sparkling under the light. I don't have a lot of nice jewelery so this means a lot to me and he knows it, mostly because it's from him. I also love anything rose gold, it will match my watch! I look at the inside trying to see what it says. I stare for a moment until I find the words but before I can read them Jeremy says, "You will always be the light in our lives." I feel my eyes filling will tears as I slip the ring in my middle finger and it fits perfect. "Thank you.. that's really sweet of you Jer." I say softly so I don't start crying and possibly ruining my make up. "We all had the idea Becca.. I wanted to get you jewelery, Katie chose a ring and Eddie suggested the birthstones and you know you're the light in my life so I came up with the engraving." Jeremy explains to me as I smile as nod hugging him tight, then to the kids hugging them just as tight.. I love my family so much. I'm the luckiest woman ever.
