Chapter 18

After spending a couple of days at the beach as a family, we get home and I'm unpacking everything while Happy's watching the kids. I get everything put into the laundry room to handle the next day while Happy is working. Heading into the kitchen, I start dinner while Happy is in the living room feeding Elena and watching a movie with Vin. I haven't said much since we've been back but the couple of times that Happy and I have had sex, I won't let him see me. I make sure it's dark. I still don't look him in the eyes but at least I'm giving him sex.

We sit down to eat. Vin is in his booster seat and Elena is in her swing while we eat. Happy and Vin are eating but I just push my food around. "You need to eat babe." he tells me. I just nod. I eat a little bit but just enough to keep him from noticing. After dinner, I clean the kitchen and get the kids ready for bed. After tucking them in, we head to bed and once we lay there for a few minutes, I kiss him. Kissing my way down his body, I get to the waist of his boxers and start pulling them off. He lets me. I run my tongue up the underside of his shaft and take him into my mouth. Sliding my mouth up and down his shaft, he takes a fist full of my hair and sets the pace that he wants. He tries to pull me up to him but I don't let him. I keep sliding up and down his hard member and hollow out my cheeks. Rolling his balls in my hand, I feel them tighten and know he's close. I hear him grunt when he finds his release and I swallow each drop. Moving to my side of the bed, he starts trying to pull at my panties and I tell him, "Tonight was all about you." I snuggle into his side so he doesn't think something is wrong. He pulls me close and says "I love you." I say "I love you too." before I feel his breath even out telling me he's asleep.

The next morning, I slide out of bed without waking him. "I get the kids up and get Elena fed and get breakfast started. Once it's done, I go to wake Happy up. "Hap, wake up. Breakfast is done." I tell him and slip away before he can grab me. I walk back into the kitchen to get Vin set up in his booster seat and put his plate in front of him. I am plating Happy's food when he walks into the kitchen. Kissing my cheek, he takes his plate and I grab my coffee and start cleaning the kitchen. "You need to eat babe." he says. "I ate while I cooked." I tell him and he just looks at me. "I ate." I tell him and he just nods and finishes his breakfast before getting ready for work.

Once he leaves, I clean the house and take care of the kids. I am outside with Elena in her bouncer and Vin is running around the yard when Happy comes walking out to the deck. "Hey babe." he says. "Hey." I say still watching Vin. He sits beside me and Vin comes running up. "Daddy play." he says. "Okay." He gets up and goes out to the yard to hang out with Vin. I get Elena and walk inside to start dinner. Once it's about done I go to the door. "Dinner's about done. Get washed up Vin." I say without saying anything to Happy. We get sat down to eat and I don't say much. "You okay babe?" he asked. "Yeah. Just tired." I tell him. He looks at me for a minute before I get up and start cleaning up. "You barely ate." he tells me. "I'm just not hungry Happy. I'm fine." I tell him. He just shakes his head and takes the kids to the living room.

After we put the kids to bed, he pulls me to the back deck. Sitting on the steps he says "Talk to me." He tries to take my hand and I pull away from him. "Nothing to talk about." I tell him. "You just pulled away from me when I grabbed your hand. That tells me something's wrong." he tells me. "I'm just inside my own head. It's nothing to worry about." I tell him. "Tell me what's going on. The only contact we've had is when you give me head and you won't let me touch you. What's going on?" he asked. I stand up "Happy, every time you try to touch me, I keep hearing that voice in my head telling me that you don't really want me. I can't even handle you seeing me." I tell him. "Lacey, listen to me." he says as he pulls me between his legs and cups my face in his hands. "Baby, you are the only one I want. You're fucking perfect. Baby, don't ever think I don't want you. I know you feeling like that is my fault and I'll do whatever it takes to show you how perfect you are and how sorry I am." he tells me. I touch my forehead to his and he kisses me softly before saying "I love you babe."
