Teddy’s Perspective
“Thanks Uncle Zach” I said as I took the juice box from his hand. Freddy and me were watching a movie on the iPad and sharing the earbuds. We each had one ear bud in and we pushed our other heads together to see if we could both listen with both ears… it didn’t work. We were on the plane for a long, long time and Uncle Zach said we still had a long time to go before we got home. So, we kept watchin’ the movie while he did somethin’ on his computer.
My dads’ n’ me just ‘dopted Olli and Abbi, they’re my TWIN SISTERS and really, really tiny so we had to stay home n’ take care of ‘em when school was closed so we couldn’t go on ‘a’cation. I loved my sisters but they’re just babies and don’t do nothin’! I knew I was gonna be soooooooo booooorrrrred stayin’ home while my friend Sammy was goin’ to Flor’da, and Freddy was goin’ to Feenix with his family. Freddy was my bestest friend ever, our dads’ say we’re more like brothers. We’re in the same class, we like all the same stuff, like Legos, video games, b’sketti, and ridin’ bikes… and he’s really funny. We’re always crackin’ each other up. My dads’ ‘dopted me last year. I was left at a church when I was just a baby and lived a lot of places with a lot of different people when I was little. Ms. Elkin (she’s the lady who helped me find my forever home) used to tell me I was a special prize and she just didn’t find the winner yet… then she found my dads’. Then, Freddy’s Dads ‘dopted him and his little sister Izzy (she’s crazy) right after I got ‘dopted, and we all went on a’cation to Disney World to celebrate. Me n’ Freddy got to be pirates, n’ Izzy n’ Maggie (she’s my cousint) got to be princesses, it was so awesome.
Our dads are bestest friends too, Freddy’s family lives across the street, so we get to hang out a lot. Me n’ Freddy do everything together! Anyway, our dads all decided that I should go on a’cation with Freddy and his whole family. Uncle Seth says I’m like one a’ their own kids anyway, and my dads’ said I was workin’ hard helpin’ with the babies and deserved a break. So, I got to go with to Feenix to visit Freddy’s cousints and some other friends. First, I got to ride on an airplane, and the pilot (that’s what they call the guy who drives the plane) even let us in to see all the controls n’ stuff. There were two steering wheels and two guys drivin’… one of ‘em let me sit in his seat and drive for a while, Freddy too! They showed us how everything worked, it was so flippin’ cool (okay, before you yell at me, ‘flippin’’ is not a swear word, Uncle Seth said so), me and Freddy both wanna be plane drivers when we grow up. Before we left the cockpit, (hee hee, ‘cockpit’ now that’s a swear word, but Uncle Zach said it was okay to use it that way), they pinned wings on us. All that before we even got to Feenix!
When we got there, Freddy’s uncle’s and cousints were waiting for us at the airport… oh, oh, oh, I almost forgot… and the airport had sidewalks and stairs that moved! You just stood there and didn’t even have to walk That was flippin’ cool too! We rented a minivan that looked ‘zactly like my dad’s, Uncle Seth let me Facetime home to show ‘em the minivan and tell ‘em we got there safe. Dads’ showed me my sisters, they were just sleepin’ (boooooooring), but I missed everybody already. Anyway, after that we went to Uncle Brad and Uncle Scotty’s house (they’re Freddy’s uncles, but my dads’ say we’re all one giant family so they’re my uncles too). Their house was so cool, they had a swimming pool right there in their backyard (lucky) and it was warm outside… in Winter! At home it was cold, prolly even snowin’ or something! So, we got our swimsuits on and jumped in, we played in the pool every day while we were on a’cation. The next day, Uncle Kev (he’s the guy my dad works for) took a bunch of us out to the desert to go 4-wheeling in his Jeep, it was so flippin’ cool! Everybody took turns ‘cept me n’ Freddy, we got to ride in the back seat the whole time! Uncle Zach made us use our booster seats and buckle up tight, but it was still cool. There were these giant Cactuseses everywhere that looked like a man standing with his arms over his head like somebody just made a goal. The ground was covered with clay dirt and rocks, it was hard kinda like cement, there were lizards and snakes everywhere, oh, oh, oh, yeah, and these giant rabbits kept runnin out of the brush. All the Uncles took turns drivin’ the Jeep and Maddy, Matty, and Scotty took turns riding with us (those are my cousints, well, they’re Freddy’s cousints so that makes ‘em my cousints too. Right? Just like Maggie and Dylan are my cousints, so they’re Freddy, Izzy, and Ali’s cousints too… see? One giant family). After 4-wheelin’ we went to a party at Scotty and Matty’s house… they had a pool too and everyone was havin’ chicken fights in the pool. The grownups were ridin’ on each other’s shoulders and knockin’ people into the water and they would fall in n’ splash the water up on everybody. Uncle Zach Put me on his shoulders and Uncle Brad grabbed Freddy and we wrestled until we both fell in. Man, it was so much fun. My dads’ friends from college were there too, and Uncle Seth let me show them all the pics of my sister Abbi and my other sister Olli on his phone, I told ‘em all about my sisters (I really missed them and my dads’ too). While I was showin’ em the pics, Uncle Zach got my dads’ on facetime and I got to tell ‘em all about 4-wheelin’!
On another day we got to go to the zoo. Maddy is way older than us, he’s like almost ten! So, we got to go with him and look around without grownups. The pettin’ zoo was fun! The lady there let me pet a sheep, she said it was called a “ewe.” When we got to the gift shop there was this onesie (that’s what babies wear) that had three pictures on it, I didn’t get it at first, but then Uncle Zach explained that it said I love you, and the one next to it said I love you too. I totally didn’t get it, then Uncle Zach pointed at each picture and told me what it meant: There was an eye, a heart, and a sheep (ewe) (👁️ ❤️🐑-and- 👁️ ❤️ 🐑2). Get it? Eye. Love. Ewe. HAHAHAHA I laughed so hard! “I want to get these for my sisters. Can I?” I said to Uncle Zach. My dads’ sent spendin’ money for me with Uncle Seth, but I didn’t use none of it… everybody was always payin’ for stuff for me. I decided that I HAD to buy the onesies for my sister Olli and my other sister Abbi. They were too funny! My dads’ would crack up. Uncle Seth thought it was a great idea and let me have some of the spendin’ money. On another day we went to a place that had rides and laser tag inside, and on another day, we went to a real live ghost town. We did somethin’ cool every day.
I had so much fun on a’cation, but I missed my dads’, my sister Olli, sister other Abbi… oh yeah, and my dog Zoey. I missed her too! It was hard falling asleep at night without her. I wanted to get home and tell them everything. The plane driver (pilot) announced that we were gonna land in Wilmington (that’s where we live) so we had to put the iPad away and sit up straight. We were almost home. YAY!
The plane landed and we all got off and walked toward the turning thing where our suitcases were. When we got there, I saw them. My dads’, my sister Olli, and my other sister Abbi. I didn’t expect them to be there waitin’. I forgot all the rules and just ran to them yelling, “I’m home! I’m home! I missed you” People were watching me run to my dads’ and sisters and laughing for some reason… I missed my family, what was so funny about that? My dads’ had the babies strapped to their fronts, the girls just sat there while I hugged my dads’, man they got bigger while I was gone! I was so happy to see them all that I cried a little, I don’t know why, I wasn’t sad, I was really, really happy.
“Hey buddy, I missed you so much” Daddy Max said.
“I wish I went with you; it looked like you had so much fun” Daddy Brody said. I told them everything…. I just started saying all the stuff we did; 4-wheelin’, the zoo, my cousints, the party, the ghost town, everything I could think of (I hope I didn’t forget somethin’ important)! But I talked to ‘em like every day so hopefully if I forgot somethin’ they already knew about it.
“Hey, we got a surprise for you” Daddy Max said pointing behind me, “look.” I turned around and saw Grandma and Grandpa Harrington walking towards us with GG, my great Grandma. “They came for Easter and to meet your sisters.”
“TEDDER!!!” Grandpa yelled (that’s what he called me) and got down on one knee; I ran over to him (yeah, I broke the rules again). They all hugged me and I told them all about my a’cation while grandpa carried me back to my family. Grandpa still held me while everyone met my sisters. It was so loud there with all us kids telling everyone about a’cation, and everyone cooing at my sister Abbi and my sister other Olli.
I thanked Uncle Seth n’ Uncle Zach for taking me on a’cation, n’ said goodbye to Freddy, n’ Izzy, ‘n Ali, and rode home with my family.
That night Grandma Harrington made my favorite, b’sketti, for dinner (hers is the best), n’ she made me peanut butter, fudge brownies (those are my favorite too). Uncle Zach was always taking video and pictures on our a’cation; on the plane ride home he turned em into a video and sent it to my dads’. We all watched it on the TV in the living room after dinner while I told everybody all about it. My favorite part of the video was me and Freddy ridin’ right at the camera in the Jeep… there was dust flyin’ out from the wheels, n’ we were laughin’, n’ Uncle Zach put this old song from the 90’s, Wild, Wild West under it. It was cool!
We watched it over n’ over until Grandpa Harrington asked, “If you don’t go to bed, how’s the Easter Bunny going to come?!” CRAP! I forgot the next day was Easter!!! How could I forget that?! It was a big flippin’ deal!
First, I showed Grandma and GG how to put the girls to bed. Then, my dads’ tucked me in. “Did you guys do anything good without me?” I asked.
“Well, Abbi ate, then she pooped” Daddy Brody joked.
“Oh yeah, Ollie ate, then pooped too” Daddy Max said.
“And then did they both fall asleep?” I said and all three of us cracked up. That’s when I remembered the presents I bought for my sisters and showed my dads’, they cracked up like I knew they would and told me to give them to the girls in the morning. I loved my sisters (as boring as they were), I loved my dads’, I loved my whole flipping family… and the best part is that I know they all loved me back! A’cation was awesome, but I was happy to be back in my own bed. I fell asleep as soon as my dads’ kissed me goodnight and shut off the light.
Seth’s Perspective
We drove up our long driveway with the gravel crunching under the tires of the Atlas, and parked near the door. We unloaded the kids first, then the luggage. When I opened the front door of our home the smell hit me, it was a good smell, our smell, the smell of home. It had been an amazing, action packed vacation, I got to see my brothers, and so many friends, even Cam and Elliot (that was a huge surprise)! I had no clue they were even in Phoenix; damn I had missed them.
I was so impressed at how well behaved all four kids were; they won everyone over. Ali and Uncle Brad bonded, Izzy got some “girl time” with Brooklyn, and Auntie Mo. Freddy and Teddy got to do all kinds of boy stuff with their cousins and uncles like laser tag and 4-wheeling, and me and Zach got a couple of grownup nights out. One night relaxing at The Resort (with an unexpected interruption from Asher, Trevor and Alejandro), and another night on the town with Cam and Elliot. But the truth is, I was exhausted and happy as hell to be home.
It was late afternoon on Saturday, Zach and I unpacked all the suitcases, I did a couple loads of laundry, and made the kids dinner. On the flight home Zach had edited all the videos and photos into an awesome vacation video, we all gathered around the TV and watched it after dinner… so many great memories. All three kids watched intently and pointed out their favorite moments, even Ali walked up to the screen a couple of times and pointed, once he pointed to my brother and said, “Uncle Brad” It warmed my heart that he bonded with my family.
Well, like I said, I was exhausted. I was so happy to get all three kids tucked in and off to dreamland, however, the night wasn’t over... not even close… we were on E.B. Duty. Luckily, I had done all my Easter Bunny shopping before we left and had everything for their Easter baskets hid away in the high cabinets in the kitchen. Zach and I pulled everything out, dumped it on the dining room table, and got each basket ready then hid them. Ali’s was in plain sight on top of the couch, Izzy’s was hidden in Barbie’s Dream House, and Freddy’s was in the coat closet near the door, behind a bunch of stuff on the top shelf; he was old enough to work for it. With E.B. duty completed we went up to bed.
I was ready to pass out, but the hand playing with my balls told me I had one more “husbandly duty” to perform. I was tired, but we hadn’t had any real “daddy time” in the sac since our pool romp like 5 days earlier and we both probably had a gallon of juice in our balls begging for release. I was lying on my back as Zach massaged my neglected nether regions, I slyly reached over and grabbed his… to my surprise he was hard as a freaking rock. “No need for the foreplay, we can go right to the good stuff” Zach snickered quietly in the darkness.
“The hell we can” I barked back. “If I’m staying up late, I’m getting a blowjob” I half-joked.
Zach grinned, moved between my legs, pulled my sweats down and took one of my plump balls into his mouth and sucked hard, to the point of pain. “You mean like that?” he snickered.
“Not if you want this ass tonight. Play nice” I teased as I pulled my knees to my chest. He snickered again then went to work on my hole. At first, he lapped gently at my musky opening, then he stuck his tongue in deep and sucked, he was all in for eating me all out, and it was flipping heaven. I was content to just bask in the miracle of Zach’s tongue as long as he was willing. Next, he licked up and down my crack, licked my eggs, then back to sucking my basket, and finally up my now rigid shaft, engulfing my purple head. His tongue played with my cockhead before he took me down his throat. His phlegm slickened my staff as he swallowed me whole… I was hugging my knees and begging for more. With his mouth and hand focused on giving me euphoric pleasure, it was only a few minutes before I shot a load of Cadbury cream from my easter eggs and colored the inside of his throat with it. I shuddered and shook in sweet orgasmic pleasure.
Zach came up from between my legs after he licked me clean and gave me a creamy kiss. “There. Now it’s my turn” he whispered before he spit in his hand and slickened up his hard cock. He lined himself up and pushed in. Even though I had already shot my load, my body was still fraught with desire. With my arms and legs wrapped around the love of my life, and my lips attached to his as I begged for more… the words went from my mouth straight into his. He pumped hard and fast with more fury than a category five hurricane. “I’m cumming” he mumbled into my mouth as his lips pressed hard against mine and his tongue probed my oral cavity. I wrapped myself around him even tighter, welcoming the intrusion. His words were gone and in their place was a powerful grunt as he shot rope after rope of his sweet, salty Zachness inside me. He used his juice as lubricant while he continued to fuck me until he went limp inside of me. Exhausted and spent, he rolled off me and said, “happy Easter.”
“I’m glad the Easter bunny came” I whispered before kissing him and curling into my position as the tiny spoon.
On Easter morning, Freddy was up EARLY! He had found Ali’s basket and Izzy’s basket already and was getting frustrated trying to find his. “Hey, bud” Zach said when we got to the bottom of the stairs, startling the anxious boy. “Watcha’ doin’?”
Freddy had this look of guilt, that was quickly replaced by a look of excitement as if he thought to himself, ‘fuck it. It’s Easter. I don’t feel guilty’ And decided to just be excited. “The Easter Bunny came! I found Ali’s basket, and Izzy’s basket, but he didn’t leave me one.” Then his looked changed to this, this look. This look of sheer disappointment, almost disbelief, “I’m a good kid, Right?” He asked us.
We both laughed, “yeah. You’re usually a good kid” I said.
“Except when you do stupid stuff like take off on your bike without telling an adult” Zach joked. Oops, Freddy didn’t take it as a joke. We knew he felt bad about taking off, and we could see it on his face. He really believed the Easter Bunny stiffed him because he took off on his bike last month. “I’m kidding” Zach laughed, “I know he left you a basket, you’re a great kid!”
“I’ll bet he just hid it better because you’re older” I offered.
Freddy was smiling again, but he let out a sigh, “I wish Tunia was home, she’d help me find it.”
Zach and I gave him hints without giving him hints like, “I’ll bet it’s up higher” or “Hmmm maybe he put it in a cabinet, or a closet, or something.” He tore the place apart… everywhere but the closet. We told him to go wake up his siblings then look some more. While he was upstairs, Zach moved his basket to be a little more visible on the closet shelf and dropped a couple of jellybeans in front of the closet door as a hint. I headed up to help him wake the others and the four of us soon came down the steps. Freddy bounded down, Izzy toddled behind, and Ali was in my arms. Zach of course recorded the whole thing.
“Dao’s my Easo basset” (Izzy to English translation: There’s my Easter basket!”) Izzy yelled with excitement when she saw Ali’s sitting on the couch.
“That has Ali’s name on it” Freddy said, then gave her a hint, “Hmm maybe you should look in the playroom.” I loved that he was helping her. Then he pointed to Ali’s basket as he looked at his little brother and whispered, “that’s yours.” Ali squirmed to get down and went right over to his basket. He pulled out the little stuffed bunny in the middle of it… that was all he needed, he held onto it like it was the most precious thing in the world. I loved how Ali was just so content with… well… whatever.
Freddy was still struggling to find his, so Zach pointed to the jellybeans in front of the closet and asked, “hmmm, I wonder who dropped those?” Freddy was all over it, he opened the door, dug through, and found his basket. By the time he found it, Izzy had found hers, and all three kids sat on the floor in the middle of the living room and went through their loot. Freddy got a lot of candy, but the other two just got a little candy and more shit! Barbie stuff, little stuffed animals, stickers, plastic jewelry for Izzy, PEZ, that kinda stuff… all three were thrilled. “What do you say to the Easter Bunny?” Zach asked.
“Thank you, Easter bunny!” All three yelled, then went back to checking their loot.
It was barely 7AM when the doorbell rang. “Who dat?” Izzy asked curiously.
“I dunno” Zach answered as he walked towards the door.
“I hope we’re not too early, but she couldn’t wait to see you any longer” Grandma Kelly said as she opened the door with her key and let Petunia run in. They had brought her back from Eli and Riley’s.
“TUNIA!” Freddy yelled and left his candy to go hug his dog. Petunia had started off as Zach’s dog, morphed into the family protector, but somehow along the way Freddy attached himself to her and took ownership. She licked his face, rigorously before she took a lap around the house, then licked the other two kids… she was happy to be home.
“GWAMMA!” Izzy yelled finally looking up from her Easter basket and the dog to realize who had walked in. “Look, the Easo Bunny comed. He bwinged us dis stuff cuz we ow nice!” (Izzy to English translation: Grandmother, it’s lovely to see you. Look, the Easter Bunny came and he brought us all these lovely things because we’re good kids!”). “N’ I got wainbow glitto nail powish” (Izzy to English translation: “Oh, and by the way, I had my nails done in rainbow colors with glitter while we were vacationing in Phoenix”) Grandma Kelly made her way over to the kids and handed out a million hugs and kisses, as Grandpa Nathan made his way through the door with a breakfast casserole in his hands and greeted everyone.
Then, before the door shut Mom Nicholls said, “Oh Seth, what a beautiful home you have.” YES! That’s what I said... MOM NICHOLLS had just walked into my house with Pop right behind her.
“Oh my god, what are you doing here?!” I asked as I ran over to hug and welcome them to our home.
“Your parents invited us to come down with them for the week” Mom said.
“Pop’s going to help me with Karen’s case” Nathan added. We made all the introductions, Freddy and Izzy had met them once at Eli and Riley’s wedding last year, but Ali was a brand new face. Grandma Kelly got down on the floor with the kids and helped them go through their loot.
“I brought a breakfast casserole” Kelly said from her place on the floor with her grandchildren. “Just pop it in the oven for me, would you Zach? We’ll eat before we go to BroMax so the kids have some real food in their bellies before they gorge themselves on Easter candy” Kelly was in town and in full-on control mode. “Oh, and I texted Max to tell him the Nicholls’ were in town, he just said the more the merrier.” I just had to smirk at how entrenched our extended family was in our life. Kelly considered herself enough a part of our group to call Max on her own and invite more guests to their party.
Anyway, Zach put the casserole in the oven, and Grandma and Grandpa played with the kids on the floor while I gave Mom and Pop a tour of our home and got all caught up with them. After the tour we sat in the living room and told them all about our trip. Zach even put on the vacation video… okay, in all honesty showing home vacation movies sounds boring as hell, but the four grandparents loved watching all their grandchildren playing, swimming, 4-wheeling, etc. together. There was a snippet of the video that Zach had taken of Matty, Scotty, Maddy, Brooklyn, Freddy, Teddy, Izzy, and Ali all lined up in the pool. The older kids are standing in the shallow end while the little ones are dressed up in their water wings and sunhats were sitting on floaties. After Zach had framed the shot, him, and the rest of us “grownups” jumped in the pool behind the kids and mugged for the camera. Everyone was smiling, splashing, laughing, and giggling.
“Now, THAT’S what a happy family looks like” said Mom Nicholls with a big smile. After breakfast we got dressed up in our Easter clothes (dear lord Izzy was covered in pastel ruffles, proudly sporting her rainbow-glitter nails), Ali donned suspenders and a pastel plaid bowtie, and Freddy was looking cute in his khakis and a pastel plaid button down. We were all ready for Easter at BroMax Farm.
To be continued…
