Bounty On your Heart (complete)

22. Home

Waking up cuddled with my babies in my arms , I just hold them . And fight back the tears trying to escape.

After a few  hours just lying there watching them sleep I finally get up and dress. Stacking pillows around them to make sure they don't fall off the bed .

I grab the baby monitor and make my way to the mess hall. I look around and see touches of the bad batch making my ship a home.

As I pass the den , toys and blankets litter the floor and I smile. Especially since  Wrecker is fast asleep with his stuffie on the lounge couch. Mouth open and drool forming a wet spot on the pillow.

I walk towards him and grab a blanket to drape over him. When it settles he stirs and says
" Glad to have ya back Z...."
Then Drifts back to sleep.
I smile at the nickname as I move to the mess hall to grab some food.

I freeze on the threshold when I see Crosshairs and Hunter at the table steaming cups of  Caf beans from the looks of it.

The both look up when I come to a stop in the doorway .

They just stare at me as I shake my self loose from the stare down and move to grab a snack.

They don't say anything for the longest time.
Neither do I. How can I?
I was kidnapped and tortured for a month . Finally let go only to lose my memory . then another few months went by and I missed my babies first words. Their first crawl. I missed it because of a vindictive Ex.

I go willingly when a hand gently pulls me around into a solid chest. I cry for everything I've lost. And for everything I've gained. I remember everything.

I cry into that solid wall of comfort. Not caring how long I do so. I'm so tired of having to do it all on my own.

I pull back and look up into the tattooed face of Hunter.
He gently cups my face and does something I will never regret in all the years I live.

He kisses me . And it feels like I'm home.

He pours everything into this kiss. Showing how much he missed me . How much he loves me.

I don't. Hold back either. Kissing Hunter is like seeing the sun for the first time. Suddenly I'm pulled away from him and another pair of lips takes his place kissing me with a savage need.

Crosshairs kisses like he does everything else . With passion.
Kissing Cross is a whole different stratosphere than kissing Hunter.

Hunter was caring and loving. Crosshairs consumes me. Kissing me likes it's gonna be his last.

Hunter rubs circles into my back as Crosshairs kisses me.

I reach back for his head and pull him down to my neck. Indicating for him to continue his ministrations.

He does quite happily. About 30 minutes of us necking like teenagers we all take a breather.
I step away from them to get my bearings and I just look at these two incredible men.
I sigh and run a hand through my hair as I come to a decision.
I look at them and say

" we need to discuss what to do from here."
