When Christmas rolled around, things were becoming more and more normal. Rory was turning two on Christmas so she was more excited then the rest of the kids. Hawkeye invited Margaret and Sabrina to spend Christmas with them. He had a huge house, so Margaret accepted. Christmas was only a week away when Hawkeye was forced to go to a banquet. Margaret was doing rounds just before lunch when Hawkeye spotted her.
“Margaret.”
“Hi Pierce, what can I do for you?”
“Lunch? I have Rory over lunch. If you didn’t hear, she bit Jane yesterday.”
“I would believe it. I met the woman, and I don’t trust her.”
“Yeah well she’s the only person that would look after six kids. And now she went and quit on me.”
“Well we can go back to the system if we have to. I know the kids don’t mind hanging out with me.”
“They don’t. They love it.” He said with a smile. “Beej has the baby, gotta go get her first.”
“Okay,” She smiled placing a clipboard in its slot. The two walked up to the pediatric floor to find the nurses playing with Rory. When she saw her father and Margaret she toddled over to them.
“Hey Baby Doll.” He smiled picking her up. Rory smiled and looked at Margaret.
“Hi!”
“Hi Rory, are you having fun?”
“Uh huh.” She smiled holding her arms out. Margaret smiled and took her.
“Where’s Uncle BJ?”
“Dere.” She said pointing to his office. Hawkeye smiled and walked in. He was sitting in his desk talking on the phone.
“I wouldn’t recommend that Mrs. James… its not that… Mrs. James, listen…I can’t…giving cosmetic surgery to a child is out of my league…look, I wont…okay, good bye Mrs. James.” BJ sighed and hung up the receiver. “Hey,”
“Hey. Greta James?”
“The one and only.”
“Chase is the same age as Rory, been trying for just over a year to get her son’s eyes fixed.”
“What’s wrong with them?”
“Nothing. They’re a little pointed, that’s it.” BJ replied. “I’ve seen the child, absolutely nothing wrong. He got the recessive gene for his eyes, and she doesn’t like that.”
“Oh,”
“Well ready to go for lunch. Peg is meeting us.”
“Okay, sure.” Margaret smiled. Rory clapped her hands together and wiggled down from her arms.
“Me awk.” She smiled taking the hand her father offered. Together the three walked to a small little restaurant in the hospital. “Otty.” Rory said looking at her father. Hawkeye smiled and picked her up.
“Okay, let’s go potty.” He smiled. “We’ll be right back.” He said to BJ, Margaret and Peg who was sitting at the table. BJ and Margaret sat down and waited for the two to get back.
“So Margaret, you got a date to the Christmas fund-raiser?”
“No, I don’t think I’m going.”
“What are you talking about; these things are always so much fun. This year they’re raffling off Doctors.”
“They do that every year, each department at a time. This year Pediatric and Surgical.”
“That means BJ is being raffled off.”
“Sure doesn’t. Hawk is, but he doesn’t know that yet.” BJ smiled. Margaret laughed until she saw the two coming back.
“Hey what did we miss?”
“Nothing much, just what department doctors their raffling off this year,” BJ commented dryly.
“Oh yeah, who are the unlucky Doctors?”
“Pediatric and Surgical.” BJ said talking a drink of water to hide his smile.
“What? I can’t be raffled off! I have six kids!” He exclaimed.
“Too bad Hawk,”
“What are we giving them this year?”
“I don’t know. I do know they never make the people that are married get raffled.”
“Arg, Margaret marry me right now so I won’t have to go through this.”
“What, no.” Margaret said in surprise. She never thought she would hear those words come out of his mouth. She hoped that one day he would say them out of love, but she knew he would never feel the same way. He couldn’t believe he said that. He wanted to say that for real, and have her accept, but knew she wouldn’t, she would never feel the same way, they were too different.
“Fine, Rory, you wanna marry your old man?” Rory just looked at her father in confusion and then at Margaret.
“Wink?” She asked.
“Sure.” He smiled handing her the glass of water. “Arg, Margaret could you watch the kids that night.”
“Sorry, I’m going to the fund-raiser.” Margaret said looking at the man in front of her. “I could get Jenny’s sister to help, and Jenny and Christy can watch the kids.”
“Sounds good. Since we’re going, wanna be my date? I can’t show up without one.”
“Sure, sounds fun. As long as I get to wear a really nice dress.”
“Oh you will. And you know that Sabrina and Katelyn will want a new one too. Those two are so much alike it scares me.”
“Oh me too.” Margaret agreed. BJ and Peg sat listening to the two talk. They could tell that they belong together, but they wouldn’t admit it. They were both too stubborn or say that they can’t. It was now up to them to get them together. Peg decided to work on Margaret; they spent time together when Margaret didn’t have to work.
The following Monday, Margaret had the day off so the two made a trip to the dress shop. Rory came with them. Margaret was going threw cocktail dresses when Peg saw the perfect dress. She knew Hawkeye for ten years, and knew exactly what he liked and disliked. Margaret saw the dress and smiled. That dress would certainly tease him. It had a low enough neckline so that he could see the top of her breasts, there was barely any back, and it went down to her knees. . It was a black that looked more like the sky at midnight. She decided to buy it. After that they went shoe shopping and picked a couple things for the kids.
When they arrived back at Margaret’s place the kids were running up the street. They all loved that Margaret was there to help them with their homework. Hawkeye would usually get upset if they weren’t cooperating, and when Jane was taking care of them, well she wouldn’t help at all. Margaret smiled when she heard all ten children run into the house. Peg had told them to get off the bus there, since she would be there. When Sabrina saw her mother she smiled and ran to her. Margaret gave each kid some cookies and milk and she and Peg sat down to help with homework. By five o’clock Peg took her kids home and left Margaret with the seven. Katelyn and Sabrina went up to her room, Dorby, Finn and Vincent went outside and Rory after missing her nap was sleeping on the couch. Baylee came up to Margaret and smiled.
“Margaret?”
“Yes Honey?”
“You like my Dad right?”
“He’s my friend, yes.”
“No I mean like, like.” Baylee said. She was going through the puppy love phase.
“Honey, come here.” Baylee smiled and walked over to Margaret. Margaret bent down to be eye level with the eight-year-old. “Now, I do like you Dad, he’s one of the best friends I ever had. He helped me a lot, and still does. And I love him for that. Do you understand?”
“Yup.” She smiled. “Margaret?”
“Hmm?”
“Thank you.”
“For what?”
“Being here. We don’t see much of Dad, but with you here, it makes it better.” Margaret smiled at the little girl and watched her run off.
By Friday all the kids knew that Margaret was going on a date with Hawkeye. His six kids loved the idea, and so did Sabrina. Even though they tried telling them it was for the hospital. Sabrina and Katelyn didn’t believe it. They wanted their parents to get together. On Friday night Baylee and the boys all decided to spend the night at friends. Katelyn wanted to sleep over with Sabrina, and Rory would be spending the night with Margaret. By the time they arrived home it would be too late to take her home. So after school the other kids went over to their friends, Vincent was only three but he wanted to sleep over with his friend Greg, and his parents never minded. Sheryl took care of Vincent a lot. He never listened to his baby-sitters, only to Sheryl.
Margaret smiled when Sabrina and Katelyn walked in. They had only known each other for four months, but were closer than most people were. Margaret and Rory went to meet the two girls.
“Mama!” Sabrina smiled.
“Hey baby girl. Hi Honey.” Margaret smiled when Katelyn came in.
“Hi Margaret.” She smiled.
“How was school?”
“Good. Mama my class is having ‘Daddy Day’.” Sabrina said looking at her mother.
“Do you want me to come?” Margaret asked looking at the small girl.
“Do you think Katelyn’s Daddy will come? I know he’s not my Daddy. But he takes care of me sometimes and likes to take me skating. And since Grampy died, I got no one.”
“I’m pretty positive Hawkeye will go with you.”
“Okay, can you still come Mama?”
“I wouldn’t leave you.” Margaret smiled. “Why don’t you two go do your homework?”
“We don’t have any! Mrs. Curtis says that all we have to do is find a baby picture. And Katelyn can’t do that until she goes home. And I know you’re going out, so I can get one later.”
“Okay, go watch TV then. And don’t let Rory get into anything. I’m going to get dinner started, and then Jenny is going to come over.”
“I thought Christy was going to come too?”
“No, since it’s only you three Christy is going to stay home. Jenny is going to come take care of you.”
“Okay.” The little girl said content with her answer. Margaret smiled and watched the two girls walk into the living room. She looked down at Rory who was staring at her.
“Wanna help me?”
“Yup.” She smiled standing up and toddled into the kitchen. After the three girls ate and Jenny arrived Margaret started to get ready. Working with Rory made a simple dinner a lot harder, but so much fun. By the time seven o’clock rolled around, Rory was just about in bed and Margaret was ready to go. Hawkeye came, said goodnight to Katelyn and rocked Rory to sleep. She was his baby, and he treated her like one. He only hoped one day that maybe he would have another child with the woman he loves more than life itself. After the little girl was sleeping the two left. Margaret made fun of him the whole way there. He really didn’t want a bunch of strangers bidding on him. He ended up convincing Margaret and Peg to bet on him. Either way he wouldn’t have to go on a date with someone he didn’t like. When they arrived everyone was surprised to see the prestigious Dr. Piece with the new Nurse Houlihan on his arm. Some of the older couples thought that they belonged together. When it was time for the bidding, they took their seats. Hawkeye was last so he got to see all the poor men being bought.
“Well ladies, this is our last bachelor. Ladies Doctor Hawkeye Pierce.” Ladies in the audience started to whistle as the middle aged surgeon made his way onto the stage.
“Hawkeye is one hundred eighty-two pounds, has been a surgeon for the past thirteen years. A Veteran from the Korean War, and ladies, he has six children.” The announcer said. She knew he wouldn’t go, but then again it wouldn’t be right to the kids.
“$25.00.” One woman screamed. Hawkeye hated her; she had been after him since before his divorce. He looked at Margaret and Peg.
“$50.00.”
“$75.00”
“$200.00.” Margaret said. The other woman looked at her in disgust. Margaret just sat there, she just bid $200.00, on a man she was supposed to be just friends. Somehow she felt a little angry that the other woman was betting on him. After all he was hers.
“Sold to Nurse Houlihan for $200.00.” Hawkeye smiled and stepped down. He walked and sat down next to her.
“Why did you bid so much?”
“I don’t know.” Margaret lied. She knew, but she wasn’t going to tell him. How would you tell your best friend that you’re madly in love with them? Well you cant. After the fund-raiser was over they headed home. When they got back to Margaret’s house he walked her to the door.
“Thanks for coming with me tonight.”
“No problem I had fun.”
“Me too.” Margaret looked at Hawkeye. She loved him so much, but she couldn't tell him. Hawkeye smiled down at the gorgeous blonde and smiled. He bent down just to place a kiss on her cheek, but that didn't work. As his lips touched hers Margaret moved up so that she could reach his lips better. They kissed like that for a while, until Hawkeye let his tongue slip into her mouth, as his hands moved over her back and rested on her ass cheeks. Margaret moved her hands above his head and pulled him down. He moved them towards the door and pinned her there as his mouth explored hers. They were to busy kissing that they didn't see Katelyn and Sabrina smiling at them. The two girls looked at each other from Sabrina’s bedroom window and smiled. A few moments later the two parted and smiled at each other.
“Would you ah like to come in for ah a drink?” She asked kind of nervous.
“Sure. And I can check on my rugrats.” He smiled. The two walked into her house and saw Jenny sitting in the living room reading a book.
“Hi Jenny.”
“Oh hi Ms. Houlihan.” Jenny smiled closing the book and standing up.
“Thanks for watching the girls tonight. I hope they weren’t any trouble.”
“No they were great. Rory did wake up with a fever around 11 or so,” Jenny started. Hawkeye’s eyes lit up with worry and walked off to find his little girl.
“Well it seems that Hawkeye is gone to check on her. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Sure will.” Jenny smiled.
“Bye honey.” Margaret smiled as Jenny ran to her car. Jenny was Sabrina’s regular baby-sitter. She got paid once a month and they had a terrific system. Margaret walked into the room where Rory was sleeping. “How is she?”
“She’s got a fever.” Hawkeye sighed. He always hated when his children we sick. It made him sad that he couldn’t make them feel better right away. “Maybe I should take her home tonight.”
“Don’t bother, you can spend the night here if you want.” Margaret smiled rubbing the little girl’s back.
“Thanks, but I couldn’t.”
“Pierce, there’s a bed in here, you can sleep with her.”
“Okay.” He smiled when Katelyn and Sabrina walked in. “Hey pumpkin.”
“Hi daddy. Daddy what’s wrong with Rory?” Katelyn asked walking up to her father.
“She’s sick.” Her father said. “What are you doing up?”
“I dunno.” She smiled. “Are we going home?”
“No, I’m going to sleep over and stay with Rory.”
“Oh okay.” Katelyn smiled as she crawled onto his lap. Hawkeye moved Rory so he could accommodate the five-year-old. Sabrina stood there and stared. She never had a father’s lap to crawl on when she was tired or sad, or any reason whatsoever. She wanted that so much, and hopefully she could have that with Hawkeye.
After new years things started to heat up between the two. They went out alone more often and always enjoyed the others company. Even though neither of them acted from the night of the fund-raiser. Each tried to forget it in their own way. Even though they knew they couldn’t. Hawkeye was more then thrilled to go as Sabrina’s dad for her class. He was very touched of what she said. Margaret, Sabrina, Hawkeye and Katelyn were all sitting together when Sabrina was called up to present her father.
“I don’t have a daddy. My daddy died coming to see me born. All I have is a Mommy. But when we moved Mommy’s friend was real nice to me. I liked him. He’s Katetyn’s Daddy, I haven’t told him, but he’s like the daddy I never knew.” He felt tears forming in the corners of his eyes. He quickly wiped them when Sabrina ran over to him and flung herself into his arms Hawkeye hugged the little girl as tight as he could. He always felt bad that she didn’t have a father. He may have six children, but Sabrina there made it even better. With her there the kids we happier to spend time alone. This little girl had a power over the world and he loved it.
Spring break was coming and Kamilia, Sabrina and Katelyn were going off to a camp. When Katelyn found out that Sabrina was a ballerina she wanted to be on too. And of course then so did Kamilia. The adults found it amusing how close the three girls were. Hawkeye’s Dad wanted to spend some time with the other children, so he shipped them to Maine for the week.
Rory didn’t want to leave her father but when she found our that her grandfather and grandmother was going to take her she was more excited then ever. Hawkeye’s father got married a couple months after the war ended. Hawkeye hated it, and still did. Even though he loved Betsy, no one would ever replace his mother. And she knew that, she would never try.
BJ and Peg took the rest of their kids on a trip which left Margaret and Hawkeye together with nothing to do.
They stayed at home most nights and talked, watched movies, or whatever they came up with. It was on a Friday night that they went to a cocktail party.
Margaret dressed to please and tease him. And he enjoyed every minute of the material you could call a dress.
He spent the whole night flirting and trying to get into her pants, so to speak. When the night was over they drove home, each flirting with the other.
Hawkeye walked Margaret back to the door, before pinning her to the door and kissing her forcefully. Margaret kissed him right back. She didn’t know whether this was just for fun or the real thing. But hey she was kissing Hawkeye Pierce! Hawkeye moved his hands over her naked back and down the back of her dress. She didn’t stop him but move her hands to open the door. She fumbled opening the door and let him walk her backwards into the house. She could feel his hardness in her belly as he pushed into her. Not letting his mouth away from hers he picked her up and carried her into the living room. Resting her down on the couch he pulled away.
“You sure?”
“Yeah.” She smiled pulling him by the tie down to her lips once again. She kissed him then sat up. “Let’s go to my room.” She smiled as she started to undo his pants. He let her and started to take his shirt off. His jacket was in the car and he had the first couple buttons undone when he walked her to the door. They made it upstairs only in their underwear. Margaret was working on his boxers when he threw her onto the bed. He kissed her and let his hands run over her naked form. He moved his hand to her thighs and opened her legs. Letting a finger glide across her clit, Margaret let out a low moan. He moved his hands up to her breasts and started to massage them as he let his mouth attach to hers. The two kissed for a while until she felt his arousal near her opening. She gasps when she felt him enter her. He was huge! She had been with many men, and not one of them ever felt like this. Hawkeye smiled and started to pump in and out of her making sure to hit her G-Spot every time. He was so talented. After a while of humping Margaret felt herself ready to cum. She pulled away from his shoulder, and let out a gasp.
“You…cumming?” He asked as he continued thrusting. Margaret nodded and came as he did.
After he emptied out he rolled off of her and pulled her onto him. Gently stroking her back to calm her breathing. Once her breathing was calm she rolled off of him and onto her side. “You know what just happened?”
“Yeah.” Margaret smiled looking at him.
“This gonna last?”
“What do you mean?”
“Are we forever, or was this just casual sex?”
“Forever and always.” Margaret smiled giving him a kiss. Hawkeye smiled and wrapped his arms around her.
“Good. I love you.” He whispered into her ear. Margaret smiled and closed her eyes.
“I love you too, always have.” She said before falling asleep. One night of passion made feelings come out and both of them loved it. They loved each other and always would.
When the girls came back Margaret told Sabrina she was dating again. Sabrina was a little sad, she wanted her mother to marry Hawkeye, but now there was another guy. Sabrina was a little bit used to her mother dating. Before they moved to California Margaret had a steady boyfriend. Sabrina liked Jeff; he was nice and always took her places. But something happened, she didn’t know that Jeff couldn’t move with her, and needed to end things. Margaret agreed. They were still friends, and talked on holidays he even came for Easter, which Sabrina loved, because he brought his daughter, Emily. After Margaret and Jeff broke up, he decided to work things out with his ex, and they were good again. Margaret thought it was amazing, and then thought about how amazing her new relationship was.
When Hawkeye told his kids he had a new girl friend. They weren’t that enthused. Baylee didn’t like the idea at all. It had only been just over two years that her mother left and she always thought that they would get back together. The boys didn’t care; they would rather run off and cause trouble. Rory didn’t understand at all. Katelyn was the worst off. She threw a fit when she found out. He knew that he was going to have a rough time with his five-year-old. She never liked when he went on a date. Of course he never blamed her, when he found out that his father was dating he wasn’t pleased one bit.
One night, after all the kids we in bed Hawkeye walked into his bedroom and picked up a book when he heard a knock on his door. He smiled and opened the door to see Katelyn. He could read her like a book.
“Hi Pumpkin.” He smiled.
“Hi Daddy.” She said quietly. Hawkeye saw her demeanor and scooped her up.
“What’s the matter baby?”
“I don’t like you dating.” She said laying her head on his chest. Hawkeye sat down and held her as she started to sob. Hawkeye rubbed her back trying to calm her down.
“What don’t you like about it?”
“Don’t…know.” She managed to get out. Hawkeye waited until she was finished crying to ask her more questions.
“Do you still wish me and your mom were married?”
“No,”
“Pumpkin, you gotta tell me. I can’t make it better unless I know.”
“I like Margaret.”
“I know you do. I do too.”
“Now you’re gonna marry your girlfriend and Margaret won’t be able to be with me.” That was a deeper answer than he expected. But then again Katelyn was always open about her feelings. That’s one thing that separated Katelyn from her siblings.
“Katelyn no one is going to take you away from Margaret.”
“Promise?”
“I promise. I would never do that to you.” Katelyn looked up at her father and hugged him. She knew that when he promised something, he would do it. That’s how her father was. Hawkeye hugged his baby back and smiled. “You wanna sleep with me tonight?” Katelyn nodded. When she was sad she always got to sleep with her father. He was her security blanket and always will be.
The next day Hawkeye planed to spend it with the boys. Three mischievous little boys they were. Margaret explained it as being a ‘Pierce’. Hawkeye laughed and started to attack her. The kids found it very funny that their parents were so close.
Margaret came first thing that morning to pick up the girls. It was Sunday so they were going clothes shopping. Baylee loved going shopping almost as much as Katelyn. Rory didn’t care; she got to spend the day with her second favorite person. Hawkeye let the boys sleep until they woke up on their own. He was in the kitchen when Vincent got up.
“Hey Buddy.”
“Hi Daddy.” He said rubbing his eyes. Vincent looked so much like his father it was frightening. He even acted like it.
“You hungry?”
“Uh huh. Can we have hot-dogs for breakfast?”
“No. How about some cornflakes?”
“Kay.” He said crawling onto a barstool. Hawkeye poured some cereal and milk into a bowl and set it down.
“So what are we gonna do today?”
“Dunno.”
“We’re going to have dinner at Margaret’s.” He told his youngest son. Vincent smiled. He loved playing over there and Margaret always made him great food.
“Good. Daddy?”
“Yeah Buddy?”
“Where is Katelyn, Baylee and Rory?” The four-year-old asked.
“Shopping with Margaret.” He replied as Dorby and Finn walked in. All three boys shared a room. Rory was the only one that had her own because she was the baby. “Hey guys. Who wants cornflakes?”
“ME! ME! ME!” They screamed. All three boys loved cornflakes; the girls on the other hand liked Cheerios better. Rory didn’t care; she could play with both of them. After the boys were fed and clothed they headed out. They were going to play golf. The boys decided that, that was their new favorite game. Finn loved running and grabbing the balls. Dorby liked beating the grass with his club, and well Vincent liked to hit things. Whenever he hit his sisters, which was quite often, he got in trouble.
After a morning and part afternoon of miniature golf, Hawkeye took the kids home to put Vincent down for a short nap. Dorby went to read which left Hawkeye and Finn.
“Dad?”
“Yeah?”
“Why did Katelyn cry last night?”
“She was sad.”
“Why?”
“Well she thought that she would never be allowed to see Margaret again.”
“Why?” He asked. Finn always wanted to know things, no matter what they were. He wasn’t in the ‘why’ phase he just was a very curious little boy.
“I don’t know Buddy. Why don’t you ask her later?”
“Okay. Dad, can I wake up Vincent?” Hawkeye looked at his watch and smiled when he saw the four-year-old walk in. He usually didn’t give Vincent naps, but he was cranky.
“Hey Buddy. You ready to go see Margaret?”
“Yup.” He said happily. Hawkeye got the three boys together and they went to Margaret’s house. When they got there the boys ran into her back yard.
“Where are the girls?”
“Picking out what they want to wear to school. Rory is playing with her new doll.” She smiled.
“Good.” He smiled and gave her a light kiss. Margaret kissed him back and smiled. “Well shall I go see what you bought my girls?”
“They’re in Sabrina’s room.” She said letting go of his hand. Just as she did Rory appeared at the top of the stairs.
“Daddy!” She screamed in delight as she toddled down the stairs. Hawkeye smiled and scooped her up.
“Did you have fun with Mags?”
“Yup!” She smiled. Rory decided she liked Mags better than Mag. Only because she could say the letter ‘s’ now. “Ook wat Mags buyed me.” She smiled holding up a doll.
“Wow, what’s her name?”
“Anne, ‘ight Mags?”
“That’s right. Raggedy Anne.” Margaret smiled as she tickled the small girl under the chin. Rory laughed and squirmed in her father’s arms. He put her down and kissed the top of her head before walking upstairs to see his two girls. He walked past Margaret’s bedroom and smiled. She had the teddy bear her gave her the night before they left Korea on there. He smiled. He got a smaller version of his Hawaiian shirt and put it on the bear. She had his captain bars on them too. It was right then that he knew she loved him. He quickly stopped thinking about her; after all he was wearing tight blue jeans. He smiled and walked into the pink room down the hall. He learned early that Sabrina liked pink, and he wasn’t about to think otherwise. Sabrina had her mother’s temper, and he knew not to go near the ‘Houlihan’ temper, he had more then enough of that in Korea.
“Hi,” He smiled knocking on the door. Sabrina, Katelyn and Baylee smiled at him. Sabrina was in her closet going through clothes. Margaret had gotten her to put them all away when they came home.
“Hi Daddy.” Katelyn smiled brightly. She loved her father, and was always happy to see him.
“Hey Pumpkin, didja two have fun.”
“Yup. Time to go home?”
“Nope, we’re staying for dinner, then its home and bath time!” The two girls whined, their father picked up a stuffed animal off of Sabrina’s bed and threw it at them. “No whining, you’re sounding like the boys.” The two girls laughed and attacked their father. Sabrina stood alone staring at them. Oh how she wished she had that. Hawkeye saw the look on the small girl’s face and felt his heart drop. He smiled and lifted the two girls off of him and attacked Sabrina tickling her. She fell to the floor laughing.
Margaret and Rory heard all the noise upstairs and made their way. Margaret stood in the doorway as she watched the man she loved play with the three girls. He spotted her and looked up. Sabrina and Katelyn we’re on his back and he was holding Baylee with his arms.
“Having fun?”
“Sure are. Hey why don’t you come and join us. I can make room.” He asked raising an eyebrow. Margaret shot him a glare then a smile. Sabrina saw both and smiled.
“Mama?”
“What is it baby?” Margaret asked.
“Can I spend the night with Katelyn and Baylee?”
“You have school in the morning, then you have dance. How about on Friday, if that’s okay?”
“No problem.” He smiled. “But I have a date.”
“So do I.” Margaret smiled. They still hadn’t told the kids whom they were dating.
“Well I’m pretty sure Kamilia would love to have you two.”
“Yeah!” Both girls smiled brightly.
After dinner the kids went outside to play while Hawkeye helped her clean up. Margaret was putting away dishes when he let his hand grip one of her butt cheeks. He gave it a gentle squeeze before letting his hands move around her waist.
“What are you doing?”
“Trying to cop a feel. Can I?”
“No, the kids are here.” She said as his hands moved up her stomach and over her breasts. “What’s wrong with you?”
“I’m really horny baby.” He whispered into her ear. Margaret rolled her eyes and noticed Vincent in the doorway.
“Daddy?”
“Yeah Buddy?”
"Daddy what are you doing? You're not apposed to do that.” He started. “Daddy, why did you kiss Margaret?" He asked innocently. "How come you kissed her like that? Why do you do that? Why do you like it? Why did you squeeze her bum? What are the things on her chest? How come you touched those?" Hawkeye looked at his four-year-old son in horror. "Grammie doesn't like it when Grampy touches Grammie. Why does Margaret?" He kept on asking.
“Vincent.” Hawkeye started sternly. Vincent stopped asking questions and looked at his father. “You need to stop asking questions.”
“Why?”
“Because I said so.”
“Why?”
“I just do.”
“Daddy?”
“Huh?”
“Your gildrind no gonna like this.” Vincent stated before running off. Hawkeye smiled and looked at Margaret.
“Did my girlfriend like it?” Margaret looked at him in horror and slapped him across the face.
“Shut up! Do you know what your son just asked?” She asked in the ‘Major Houlihan’ tone.
“Yes I know. What kind of father do you think I am?” He asked a little hurt. “He always asks those questions. Plus he’s going through the ‘why’ phase.”
“That doesn’t matter. He knows that you have a girlfriend and I have a boyfriend.”
“I know he knows.”
“Well what are you going to say?”
“If he asks again, or tells the other kids then I’ll tell them that you’re my girlfriend.” He said simply. Margaret looked at him and sighed. She sat on the counter and stared at him.
“They are going to find out one day.”
“That they are.” He smiled then gave her a quick kiss. “I should get the rugrats home, it’s almost Rory’s bedtime.” As on cue Rory walked into the kitchen, looked at her father and held up her arms. Hawkeye smiled and picked up the little girl. “We should get going.”
“Okay. I’ll go get her ready, why don’t you get the others.”
“Surely.” He smiled and walked outside where all the other kids were playing. After everyone was ready to go, he sent them all out to the car and Margaret sent Sabrina to the shower.
“Bye.”
“Bye baby.” He smiled giving her small kiss. “I’ll see you tomorrow. Drop by my office okay?”
“Okay, bye.” Margaret said as he walked off. Vincent was standing at the end of the walkway. “Bye Vincent.” She smiled as she waved to the little boy. Vincent smiled and waved back.
Once everyone was clean and in bed, Hawkeye took Vincent aside.
“Daddy?”
“Yeah? ”
“Why are you doing that? Daddy why can you hit Margaret's bum and I cant hit Katelyn?”
“Vincent have you told any of your brothers and sisters what you saw?”
“Nope.”
“Good. I don’t want you to tell them okay?”
“Why?”
“I want to tell them later.”
“Daddy?”
“Yeah?”
“Is Margaret your gilfrind?”
“I’ll tell you later. Bed time.” He smiled picking up the small boy. Vincent laughed and hugged his father. After all the kids were in bed and sleeping, Hawkeye walked downstairs and picked up the phone.
“Hello?”
“Hi baby.” He smiled when she answered the phone.
“Didn’t we just say goodbye?”
“That we did, but we’re never saying goodbye again.”
“What can I do for you?”
“Well you can do many things,” He started out. “But there’s something I need to talk to you about.”
“What is it?”
“Vincent, he’s asking questions.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well,” He started. The two talked for a while before they realized it was close to eleven. Margaret made him say goodnight and she would see him in the morning. After she got Sabrina off to school she went to work. She walked straight to her boyfriend’s office and found him playing with one of Rory’s toys.
“What are you doing?”
“Rory broke this; I’m trying to fix it.”
“I see. I only have a few minutes, what did you want to talk about?”
“A lunch date. Peg has Rory and BJ is on vacation, so I was thinking we could have a romantic picnic, then come back and work, and then I can take you out to dinner and a movie.” He smiled.
“Dinner and a movie huh? What about the kids?” she asked sitting on his lap.
“All taken care of.” He smiled. “BJ offered to take them.”
“For how long?”
“Tomorrow afternoon. We both have tomorrow off,” He said pulling her closer to him. Margaret smiled and kissed him. “And then tomorrow we can tell the kids about us.”
“Deal.” She smiled.
“Well what would you like to do tonight?”
“Well I know what you want to do.” She smiled at him.
“Yeah well.” He smiled.
“We’ll see. I gotta get to work. Pick me up around noon.”
“Okay, bye honey.”
“Bye,” Margaret smiled walking out the door.
Just as she told him too, Hawkeye picked her up and they went for a nice romantic lunch. Then went back to work. When they passed each other he would grab what ever he could and give it a squeeze. After work he literally picked her up. The other nurses looked in shock and tried to suppress laughter. He carried her to the car and drove her back to her house. Which was decorated with flowers and candles.
“Just as I promised a night of dinner and dancing.” He smiled wrapping his arms around her. “And some dirty dancing upstairs.” He said slyly. Margaret hit his chest and smiled.
“Let’s skip dinner and dancing.” She said as she started to take off his clothes. He grabbed her waist and lifted her up. She wrapped her legs around his torso and kissed him. Hawkeye moved his hands over her ass and started to walk upstairs. Once they got into the bedroom, he gently laid her on the bed and moved his hands up her nurses’ uniform. Slipping it off as Margaret pushed his pants down. He was only in his boxers while she was in her bra and panties.
“You ready?” He asked moved his hands over her breasts. Margaret moaned at his touch and smiled.
“Always.” He smiled as she slipped his boxers off as he removed her remaining articles of clothing. He looked over her naked form and straddled her, letting his erection gently rub against her. She wanted it in her. She let her hand slip between them as she grabbed his erection and squeezed it. She led it to her opening and then moved both of her hands to his ass and gave him a gentle push to shove it in. He took his order and shoved his cock in her, hitting her G-Spot as he did. He slowly started to rock in and out of her. It was a sometime later that he felt himself about to cum.
“I’m…gonna….cum…” He managed to get out. Margaret nodded she was about to come too. With one final thrust he shot into her and Margaret released herself. After he emptied out he rolled them over so she could lie on him.
“Oh god.” Margaret breathed as the orgasm ran through her body.
“Baby, we can’t go for a week without this.”
“I know.” Margaret said.
“You up for another round?”
“Only if I’m in control.” She smiled and sat up.
The two made love couple times throughout the night and morning. By noon they showered and got dressed and waited for the kids to get home.
When they did they told the kids that they were seeing each other. Sabrina smiled brightly and jumped into her mother’s arms. Margaret hugged the little girl and saw that the other six children were waiting for hugs. After everyone was hugged they ran off and played. Margaret and Hawkeye smiled and started dinner.
The two families talked and laughed for the rest of the night until Hawkeye took his kids home. Margaret got Sabrina ready for bed then went to tuck her in.
“Mama?”
“What is it Baby Girl?”
“I’m glad you’re dating Hawkeye.”
“Why?”
“Cause he’s a good daddy, and I want him to be my daddy.”
“Oh?”
“Yeah, he said that since you and him are dating he’s gonna take me out one day and we can get to know each other.”
“Sounds like he wants to spend some time with you.”
“He does. Thank you Mama.”
“For what?”
“Loving Hawkeye.” She smiled and closed her eyes.
