Still Krieger’s POV:

When we both calmed down from our orgasm, I wrapped myself in a bath robe. I unlocked the door and grabbed our swimsuits. Ray emerged from a guest room and eyed me. “No protection?” he asked. “Ray, leave Krieger alone! It’s both of our decisions!” Mary yelled from her room. “Sorry, hun. Just wanted to make sure,” Ray said as Mary peaked her head in the doorway.

“What are you doing up here anyway?” she asked. “Bathroom. Figgis and Lana are screwing in the downstairs bathroom,” Archer said, leaving the spare room. “Not a word to anyone,” Ray said and Mary hugged him. She had on her bathrobe as well. “I hope he makes you happy. Or Lana shooting him in the foot will be the least of his problems,” she said. “We aren’t da-“ Ray started.

“Don’t give me that, Ray. I know that face. You’ve been giving it to Archer all day,” she said. “You Gilette’s are freaking scary,” I said. “We’re protective of those we care about. Plus, I know where to get lye should someone fuck with those we care about,” she said. “That’s so hawt,” I said and Ray groaned. “We’ll take our leave. See you out there,” Archer said, nudging Ray down the stairs.

“Took them long enough,” I said as Mary and I returned to her room to get back in our swimsuits. I capped the two bottles of milk while Mary put away the pumps. We went downstairs, putting the bottles into the fridge. When we were back outside, Mallory rolled her eyes. She was lounging in a chair, holding Raylene. “Food is ready,” Pam said. “She took over since Ray and Archer had to go to the washroom. At the same time,” Cheryl said.

“We know. We finished around the same time,” Mary teased. “Mary Jane!” Ray exclaimed, blushing. “Must be a twin thing,” I said and Mary grabbed a plate. She piled it with steak and veggies. I followed suit, sitting at the table beside her. After everyone was seated, we dug in. “So, Ray tells us you two are making a baby,” Lana said. “Lana!” Ray exclaimed.

“What? It’s a burning question I’m sure everyone is thinking,” Lana said. “Yes, Krieger and I are trying,” Mary replied. “So, there will be a mini Krieger running around?” Mallory asked. “And you met when?” Lana asked. “A week ago. Well technically three days ago,” I said. “What!?” Cyril exclaimed. “Mary, are you sure that’s what you want?” Lana asked.

“Yes, it is,” she replied, leaning towards me. She was biting her lip, looking down and her hands were shaking. She was getting uncomfortable with the topic. I took her hand that was on the table and linked my fingers with hers. “Ray, you can’t seriously be ok with this?” Cyril said, looking at Ray. “She is a grown ass woman. Krieger knows I will murder him if he screws up,” Ray said. “This steak is amazing, Ray,” Archer said, changing the topic.

“Yeah, Mommy really likes the doctor. We have never seen her this happy. With anyone,” Melody said. “Yup, yup, yup. Especially with men,” Mikey said. “That clears that up,” Mallory said. Mary relaxed and went back to eating.

Her hand never left mine and Lana studied us. After dinner, we put the dishes in the dishwasher, threw out the scraps, put things away. Mary stayed out with the twins and held Raylene. Mallory told me to go join her, handing me a bottle. I went out and Mary handed me Raylene.

Cyril’s POV:

Lana and I watched Krieger and Mary from the kitchen window. Krieger was holding the baby and feeding her. Mary was entertaining the twins. They shared loving glances at each other. “They really do love each other,” Lana said. Mary laughed at something Krieger said. She leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder. She wrapped an arm over his shoulder.

“Let’s give them space,” I said. “They are too cute,” Archer said. “Krieger is surprisingly good with the kids,” Mallory said. “I’m sure if she knew what he was capable of, she wouldn’t,” Lana said. “Oh, I’m sure she knows,” Ray said. “How though?” Lana asked. “She definitely knows and I’m sure he’s dropped his more nefarious stuff,” Mallory said, pouring a drink. “I mean he did shut down Mitsuko. Without hesitation. And no, Mary did not tell him to,” Mallory added.

“Holy crap! She’s got a wall of movies! Mostly horror!” Archer said from the living room. “She’s a total nerd for horror,” Pam said and we went into the living room. Which was huge and beautifully decorated. There was indeed an entire wall of movies. Kids movies at the bottom and adult movies at the top. She even had box sets of animes and crime shows. At the very top was porn.

“Damn, she’s got the same taste as Krieger in porn,” Archer said. “I’m not listening to this,” Ray said, slipping out back. After browsing through the movies, we all followed suit. Ray was in a super soaker battle against the twins. Mary and Krieger were laughing at them from the beach chairs. Pam and Cheryl were quick to join them. Lana and I jumping in after them.
