Love doesn't have to be hard

Chapter 41: Traumatizing our son

Two years later:

So, Krystal dropped Liam off, and Isabel and the twins were visiting my parents. We didn't know that Krystal was bringing Liam home. 

So, we have been enjoying our empty home, not shutting our bedroom door and had no clue he had heard us.

We had been enjoying our Anniversary weekend, pleasing each other everywhere, and more times than I could even count.

Liam was in his room and left a note saying I'm home in my room. 

Two days later:

Zed and I were confused, so Zed went to his room. He hadn't looked us in the eyes and barely acknowledged us since he came home.  

We tried to talk to him, but he just wanted to be left alone. Stephanie was in town visiting her parents. Since Robert retired, they had bought a house near us to be closer to the kids. 

Stephanie drove him home from school, and she asked him what was going on. At first, he told her he was fine and nothing was wrong. 

She was like really, then why are you crying? "Are you sure you didn't hear something between your parents?"

"Oh, god, you know. I heard them having sex, and she was yelling Dad's name over and over. Three times, it was horrible. Why would they do that? I can still hear the sounds and their voices. I have been having nightmares since it happened. Why would they do that, Aunt Steph?"

She busted out laughing, "Well, kiddo, they are in love, and that's what people who are in love do. Your Mom and Dad are going to have a fit when they find out you heard them. You should always call before you come home when none of your kids are home because, in their defense, they thought they had the house to themselves. Just be glad you didn't see anything. You didn't, did you?"

"I was confused by what was happening and the noises. I thought something might be wrong. I walked into their room, and Dad was behind her as her body was raised, touching her chest. I ran out and went downstairs."

"Oh my god, yep, they are going to freak out. Liam, you have to talk to your parents, they have been really worried. Your dad caught your grandparents having sex when he was younger as well. It traumatized him as well. So, when he tells you he understands, it's because he really does."

"I am never having sex that looked and sounded so gross. I don't know if I will ever get that out of my head."

"You will be okay. Seeing our parents didn't stop your Dad, and trust me, bud, when you get into middle school or high school, you will like girls."

They pulled to the gate she entered the code, and parked her car. He jumped out and ran in, and she followed behind him. He went to his room. 

"Did he talk to you?"

"Yes, and you two better sit down."

"Oh god, what happened to my baby?"

"You and Zed happened to him. He saw and heard you two going at it when he returned home early."

"What do you mean he heard and saw us?"

"Exactly that. He heard you screaming Zed's name and the sounds. He thought something was wrong and walked in a little. He said you were behind her as she was raised up and touching her chest. Damn, bro, you go all out. No wonder you had four kids?" 

"Oh my god, he wasn't supposed to be home. We had a kid-free house, and we made plenty of use of it. Tessa, we have traumatized our son. Fuck, he wasn't supposed to see us or even hear us. I put thick walls throughout this house to stop that from happening."
