Posts: 5486 05/19/09 2:12 PM Finally Free! David and Erica Addict #1 Porn Nazi! D&E Encyclopedia Volume 1 The Big Cheese Left Arm	Tags : None Sorry for the delay. I was down for a few days because of a really bad allergic reaction so I couldn't write. Bah. But I'm better now, and hope to have this part completely done tomorrow. I love this little world, and I think I'm going to do two more pieces in this series, so definitely look for those. I'll give a hint as to the next one in the last part of this one. To be continued very soon, I promise. Hope you like! " src="http://s4.images.proboards.com/smiley.gif"> Part II "Mommy, what are you doing up?" Nicholas started from the doorway, his hand still on the knob eyes narrowing on his mommy. "Bella wanted someone to play with," She told him softly, offering him a smile. "You're supposed to be sleeping," He said again, a soft pout twisting his face. "Mommy," Noah dragged out as he too come to stand in the doorway, "we was gonna surprised you." "Oh?" She said back, raising a curious eyebrow at them. She was on her left side, propped up on her arm, and hand been looking down at Bella, who was laying on her back. "Go back to sleep, mommy," Nicholas demanded tossing her a less then amused scowl. Erica laughed lightly, "I'm not tired." She told them, eyes behind them and fixed on the doorway where David had just emerged. "But we wanted to surprise you, mommy," Nicholas pouted. "Why don't we still surprise her?" David offered from behind them, "Just because she's awake doesn't mean she knows what we've been up too." He flashed her a knowing smile and held her gaze. "What did you boys do?" She asked with a smile and a curious eyebrow. "We mades you a surprise," Noah beamed back, Nicholas nodding as he tipped his head toward his daddy. Bella gurgled loudly from beside Erica, kicking her pink pajama clad feet at her brothers and her daddy. Erica laughed, cooing to Bella as she scooped her into her arms, and shifted so that she could sit with her back against the headboard, Bella in her lap. "You heard the ladies," David told them, tipping his head toward Erica and Bella. The boys exchanged knowing looks, and matching mischievous smiles, before looking back at their mother. "Happy mommy's day, mommy," They said in unison, eyes wide and twinkling with delight, as they started toward the bed. David watched them with a knowing, amused, proud smile, his heart swelling with love for these children. He still didn't believe this was his. Erica, the boys, Bella, that this was his family to love and protect. He still worried that one day he'd wake up and realize it was all some cruel dream, and that he really was all alone in the world. Nicholas flanked the right side of the bed, throwing himself up on the edge, bouncing it slightly, much to Bella's delight, "I love you, mommy," He beamed, sliding on his knees toward Erica so he could place a soft kiss on her cheek. Noah echoed his brother's sentiments, jumping on the left side of the bed. "We mades you breakfast." He told her, leaning in to kiss her cheek, in the same soft sweet motion that his brother just had. "You made me breakfast?" Erica asked, smiling from left to right at the two most adorable little men she'd ever had the pleasure of laying her eyes on. "They did," David told her from the doorway, tray in hand as he started into the room, "They even helped with the menu." Make that two of the three most adorable men she'd ever laid eyes on. "Oh, so I'm having pizza." She teased, both boys bursting with laughter as they shook their heads. "We no made pizza," Noah told her through his laughter, sliding in closer to her and holding his and out to Bella, who was gurgling happily in her mommy's lap. "What did you make?" She asked curiously, watching David shake his head as he walked toward the bed. "That's the surprise, Erica," David told her with a wink, nodding as he walked around the side of the bed. Bella kicked her feet and blew out a bubbly laugh, at the sight of the daddy. She loved both of her parents and her brothers, but there was no doubt that she was her daddy's girl. "Anything that my guys made has to be worth the wait." The boys beamed at her, eyes wide and twinkling with love and excitement. It all seemed surreal sometimes, that this was hers. A loving husband whom she shared three children with. A house full of love and laughter. She'd missed this with Bianca; the wide eyed wonder of young children, the bright, eager way they approached everyday, like it was something new and wonderful. She'd spend the rest of her life making sure that their smiles never faded. David stopped at the side of the bed and leaned down slowly, setting the tray just above Erica's knees, so that he could scoop Bella up on the way back. "Happy Mother's Day," He offered through a smile and low breath, as he leaned in to drop a soft kiss on her lips. They boys snickered and made soft Ewwww sounds in response to their parents display of affection. "If we stop kissing boys," David laughed, shaking his head as he pulled a very amused Bella into his arms, "that's when you get to complain." They grinned back at him, their wide eyed wonder and happiness flooding the room. They might not always like to see their mommy and daddy kissing, but that didn't mean they wanted it to stop. They wanted their mommy and daddy happy forever. "You gots to see what we made you now, mommy," Nicholas told her, and Noah nodded, bouncing enthusiastically on the bed. David shook his head, laughing happily as he sat down on the edge of bed, Bella in his lap as they faced the boys, "Don't keep us in suspense any longer, Erica," David teased, offering her a knowing wink. The boys moved to lift the lids off the plates; Noah revealing the omelet and fruit, while Nicholas opened the lid to the pancakes he'd helped prepare. "It's an om'it, mommy," Noah told her proudly, happy that he remembered the name, "With 'ushooms." He beamed nodding as Erica leaned over to place a sweet kiss on his cheek. "It looks delicious, thank you baby," She replied, offering him a sweet smile in return. "The pancakes are chocolate chip, mommy, I helped make 'em." Nicholas proclaimed proudly, pointing to the plate of pancakes. "You helped make these?" She asked, watching him nod back to her, eyes wide and burning with love and pure innocence. She'd spent so long jumping from relationship to relationship, man to man, trying to find whatever it was she was missing. It wasn't until these three little people were placed in her arms that she'd found all those missing pieces. That wasn't to say she didn't love Kendall or Bianca, or that they weren't as big of pieces of her heart as these three little beings were, she'd just never had this chance with them. These moments, and each one she made with them the more herself she became. "Well they look fantastic," She beamed, eyes going from her boys, to David who was holding Bella' against his chest; her eyes sleepy and low as she blew slow soft breaths against his shirt. "Show her what else you made for her," David reminded them, tipping his head toward the rest of the tray. "There's more?" Erica asked with a knowing smile, watching the boys nod excitedly. "We made you cards," Nicholas said excitedly, reaching for the tray and his card which sat in front of his brother and sisters. Nicholas pulled his card out first, holding it out to Erica so that he could tell her about all the pictures he'd drawn for her. At four years old he was hardly and artist, but to his mother's keen mommy eye, she could see every heart, every flower and every balloon he'd draw for her. Noah was next in line, his smile wide and toothy as he handed Erica her card. It was nothing more then scribbles, lines on the paper, that were different colors and had no rhyme or reason. Erica saw the flowers, saw the hearts, and pointed them out to her son, who nodded excitedly. "Bella made you one too," Nicholas told her, after she'd showered them both with thank you kisses and a mommy hug and left them both pulling away while laughing that she was squishing them. "Daddy put her hands in purple paint," Noah told him, shooting his eyes to David, "and then we put her hands on da cards." Bella's eyes were heavy lidded, drifting open and closed as she fought sleep against her daddy's shoulder, "She loves you too," David told her, looking down at Bella as he rubbed soft circles over her back. "You gots 'nother pesent, mommy," Noah told her, pointing to the nicely wrapped box that sat on the opposite side of the tray. "Another card?" She asked of the boys, who shrugged at her, feigning innocence as they pointed to the box. "Open it mommy," They demanded, bouncing against the mattress in their excitement. She let her eyes leave the package and shifted them up to meet David's, wondering what this was and why he had that look in his eyes. She knew that look, that one that took her breath away. The one that made her heart skip a beat and made her pulse thread loudly in her ears. The one that was filled with so much love, it almost hurt. "You heard them, open it up." His voice was low and mischievous and his expression matched their sons to a tee. If this is what she had to look forward to for the rest of her life, she may as well just give up, because she was hopeless to resist them. Nicholas handed her the box, pressing her to open it, "Come on mommy, open it." To be continued

Posts: 5486 05/24/09 9:56 PM Finally Free! David and Erica Addict #1 Porn Nazi! D&E Encyclopedia Volume 1 The Big Cheese Left Arm	The box was nicely wrapped in soft pink paper and tied with a single silver string which was knotted into a bow perfect bow on top. "Open, open, open," Nicholas chanted all smiles as he looked at his mommy. "Open mommy," Noah commanded, through a nod as Erica pulled at the ribbon. "I wonder what it is," She half said, half asked the boys, who she knew were holding back from telling her by a thread. "If we tell you, it's not a surprise," Nicholas told her, shaking his head. "That's my boy," David told him, "She'll do that you, boys," He started, watching Erica cock her head and throw an amused eyebrow at him, "tell you that she doesn't love surprises, tell you that she needs to know what's in the box for her own good. Don't ever fall for it, no matter how sweet her smile." The boys giggled nodding as Erica offered David a playful glare. "I already know what it is," She told them, watching both boys cock their heads in confusion as they watched her pull away the pink wrapping. "You do's not," Noah told her, and Nicholas nodded agreeing with his brother. She threw them a knowing smile and focused her attention on peeling back what was left of the paper; the outline of a black box peeking through. At her urging the boys helped her with the last of the paper, before sitting back and watching her with wide eyes. "Now you gots to open the box, mommy," Nicholas told her, his excitement almost to much to bare. "Open box, mommy," Noah mimicked, and David nodded laughing as he egged his sons on. He wanted moments like this to last forever. She took the lid off and pushed past the white tissue paper that was underneath, revealing the first edge of one of the black frames. "Open faster," Nicholas told her, nodding at the box. Erica pushed at the last of the issue paper, revealing the entire present. She lifted it out of the box slowly, knowing instantly that it wasn't one frame, but four frames hooked together. She pulled them apart slowly, noting how they were hooked side by side, the smallest frame on the far left and the biggest at the right side. The first frame was the smallest, and held a picture of Bella. She was dressed in soft pink dress; accented with pink leggings and the most adorable pair of pink Mary Jane's she'd ever seen. The little hair she had was pulled up on top of her head and clipped together with a tiny pink bow. She was flashing the camera a gummy smile, her big brown eyes open and alert. At four months old she was an incredibly photogenic child, and was sure to only get more as she grew. "When did you have time to do this?" She breathed, running a fingertip over the glass as she traced Bella's picture. "A few weeks ago, when you were in New York for the day," David told her, his smile soft and tender, filled with love and devotion. She blinked a few times, trying to hold back tears as she shook her head, words escaping her. "My picture mommy," Noah told her, pointing to the next frame, which was slightly bigger then the one that held Bella's picture. It didn't take her more then a couple of seconds to decide this was probably her favorite picture of him. His smile was wide and curious, his eyes big and narrowed as she seemed to focus on or see something off camera. That was Noah; their free spirit, their explorer, their curious little man who came at the world with wide curious eyes, as he watched it unfold before him with rapt attention. Everyday was new and exciting and he never seemed to take a moment for granted, even at two he seemed to grasp the concept of living each day as though it was a new one. "It's wonderful, sweetheart," She told him through a soft smile and watery eyes. "Now me," Nicholas told her, pointing to his picture. Sometimes it scared her how much like David Nicholas really was. Not just his looks mirrored his father, but his entire personality. His picture was the complete opposite of Noah's, but was just as adorable. His face was intense and focused, despite the bright smile that was spread across his sweet face. He'd clearly stopped to pose for the camera, obviously taking the photographers words to heart. He was his father in that respect, serious and intense, focus and driven, yet there was an air of innocence and playfulness that fluttered around both of them. "I love it, baby," She told him, the tears she'd been struggling to keep at bay, finally slipping down her cheeks. "Looks at the last one, mommy," Nicholas told her, all smiles, "It's all of us." The last frame and the biggest off the four contained the most adorable sight she'd ever seen. Her three babies in the same photograph. Nicholas was sitting on the floor, holding Bella, who was looking up at him with big wide eyes and bubbly smile. Nicholas was looking at his brother and sister, a playful smile on his face as he smiled in the general vicinity of the camera. Noah was seated on the floor next to them, his eyes focused to the left and off camera, probably looking at David who was trying to get him to behave, a mischievous smile painted on his adorable face. "It was a long day, that was the best we could do," David told her with a soft smile. "It's incredible," She told him, tipping her tear filled eyes up to meet his, "Thank you." "Do you like it mommy?" Nicholas asked. "Oh, I love it. Thank you so much." She told them, setting the pictures down on the tray's so that she could open her arms to her boys. She enveloped them in a giant bear hug, holding them close. Sometimes she couldn't remember life without them…and it didn't bother her in the slightest. "I think there might be one more present," David mentioned after a few seconds of watching the wonderful site before him. The boys pulled out of Erica's arms and turned their heads to David, shooting him a curious smile. "Another present?" She breathed back, touching at the tears that still lined her cheeks. "What else did you get me, boys? "I not know," Noah shrugged. "Me neither," Nicholas added. "What's it, daddy?" Noah wondered, watching his daddy tip his head toward the other side of the tray and the edge of paper that peeked out from under her napkin. "I don't know," David told them, eyes wide and wicked as he looked at his wife, "Why don't you open it, and see." It was a card she noted quickly, pulling the paper out from underneath her napkin and silverware. The front of had a black and white picture they'd taken in Rio on their honeymoon. It was a big heart David had drawn in the white sand of the Brazilian beach, a D at the top and E near the bottom. He'd teased her about wanting to carve their initials into a tree when they went to the rainforest the following week. She'd suggested he do something less permanent and less harmful to the environment. "The present is on the other side," David told her, softly. "D and E, David and Erica… that's you and daddy," Nicholas proclaimed after he'd finally made out the letters on the card. "Daddy drew that for me on our honeymoon," Erica told them, eyes alive and dancing with love as she looked at David. "I like it," Noah said, nodding. "Me too," Nicholas added, "What's the other side say, mommy?" The words on the backside were typed in a soft black font, and aligned in the center of the page. "What it say mommy?" Noah asked, watching his mother's face as the read the words. "Why are you crying, mommy?" Nicholas asked, slightly concerned. "They're happy tears, baby," She assured them, eyes still locked on the words. "What they say?" Noah asked again, his eyes shifting between his parents. "Well," Erica finally started, blowing out a steadying breath as she moved her eyes up to lock with David's, "there's going to be a wedding, and we're all invited." "Who's getting married?" Nicholas asked looking down at the invitation to see if he could make out any letters. "Your daddy and I," Erica breathed softly, a love filled smile playing on her lips. "You's already married," Noah said, his little voice filled with confusion. "Yes we are," David told him, "But I was thinking that since you're all here now, and our family is complete, that we should get married again, celebrate the last six years. What do you think?" Both boys nodded excitedly, "Do we have to go to a church?" "No," David told him, shaking his head as he looked at his boys, and then at Bella who slept peacefully in his arms, "I was thinking that we'd go to a place called Rio and get married on the beach." "I like the beach," Nicholas proclaimed. "Me's too," Noah added, despite the fact that he'd never been to the beach. Erica was still struggling for words, the scope of what he had planned not yet sinking in. She'd talked about them doing something special to make their five anniversary last year, but she was in the first trimester of her pregnancy with Bella and they didn't want to do anything to upset her pregnancy. She'd mentioned in passing how it would be even better this year, now that their family was complete, but she never expected this. A trip back to Rio. A big wedding on the beach, with all of their friends in attendance. It was the wedding she'd wanted from the start, and had opted not to have in favor the marriage and not the ceremony. "I think you boys will like Rio. There's lots of fish and birds. We can go to the rainforest and see the monkeys," David told them, watching them nod vehemently, "That is if your mother thinks it's a good idea." He finished, turning his eyes on Erica, who was still silent. She was looking back at him now, her eyes wide and dancing with love and happiness. "I think it's the best idea I've heard in a long time." She finally answered, all her love and devotion to David pouring into the single sentence. "Good. I'll tell Eduardo to go ahead with the plans and in the Fall we'll get married in Rio," He told her, but it was the boys who nodded excitedly. He slid forward on the bed, careful not to jar Bella from her sleep, stopping so he was close enough that he could leave over the tray and kiss her. "Happy mother's day, Erica." "I love you," She breathed back, her voice low and firm as she smiled back at him. "Always," He replied, dropping his lips in so that he could seal the deal with a kiss. He'd been blessed to marry her once, and now he'd have the chance a second time, with their children in tow. How he got this lucky he'd never know, but he'd never let this go. Fin~
