Her Keeper

Chapter 138

--Guilia Parris--

It was amazing seeing my Mom and Dad share love like they do. It was even more amazing seeing Grandma and Grandpa share love like they did as well.

Grandma and Grandpa told us all about the trials they went through in love. They even told us how Grandpa used to sleep with Dad's mom at one point and now he's Dad's father-in-law. It's ironic, because Dad recently had a fling with Brianna's Mom and now he's Brianna's soon-to-be father-in-law.

I only know because I saw her sneak out of our house around four one morning, while I was sneaking back in from seeing Vincent. Him and Mom were not together, so I couldn't fuss about it and I also didn't want to be caught sneaking around.

We are currently at one of our family dinners and the entire family was actually present; Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Gran-Gran Elise, myself, Krystopher, Genovia and Junior.

Dinner had been over for a while now, but everyone was at the table making small talk.

"So Guilia, how's everything been?" I dreaded this question these days.

"Everything's fine." I shrugged.

"No interesting stories today?" Grandpa asked.

"No sir." I shook my head.

"That doesn't sound like my usual, jolly Lia." He continued.

"I'm ok, Grandpa. Really." I tried to assure him.

"Ok. If you say so." He decided to leave it alone.

I looked over at my parents and Mom's lips were pulled between her teeth while her head was laid on Dad's shoulder. They seemed to be in their own zone, not even bothering to participate in any of the ongoing conversations around the table.

Then, Mom's eyes closed for a brief moment as a chill seemingly ran down her spine from the way she slightly shivered, but that's when I noticed the slow, subtle flexing of Dad's chest muscles, which obviously were a result of his hand moving. I couldn't believe that my parents were indulging in sexual activity around the table unbeknownst to everyone else, but myself.

I inwardly shook my head and looked at Krys and Junior playing some sort of game on Krys' iPad. Genovia, Gran-Gran, Grandma and Grandpa were all conducting a conversation of their own.

Being bored with everyone else, I discreetly looked at my parents. Mom now gripped at Dad's arm and the flexing of Dad's chest muscles slightly increased in momentum.

I watched as Mom dug her nails deeper into Dad's skin as her teeth sunk deeper into her lower lip. She closed her eyes and released a deep, but inaudible sigh. Dad's hand which was closest to Mom surfaced from below the table. As I tried to figure out what was going to happen next, Dad's hand went up to his lips as he sucked off his index and middle fingers.

Gross. Was all I could think to myself as I watched Mom make her head a bit more comfortable on Dad's shoulder. He turned his head and gave her a kiss on the forehead, causing her to slightly smirk.

I glanced back at everyone else just to confirm that it was just me who had observed them. After being certain that I was, I continued.

They were now having a conversation like everyone else.

I watched as Daddy brought Mom's hand to his lips in his own and kissed the back of it.

I thought of how lucky Mom was to have a man that was so tender toward her, though he was usually a mean, cold man.

I'd just watched my Dad who was married to my Mom for years unselfishly please her, without forcing her to return the favor. A lump formed in my throat and I could feel my eyes gloss over.
