First time sex stories: A Family Betrayal – Chap 4B
Adam gets up at that moment to head up the stairs leaving Jack and I confused. After a few minutes he returns with his hands behind his back. Adam walks back over to the couch looking at us both.
“ You both know I can’t hardly afford anything as my money goes for my tuition.” Adam says only to get two nods before he continues “ So I made you both something instead.”
Adam pulls his hands back around holding two picture frames with pictures that were taken during Halloween of us with May. He hands one to Jack then the other to me. Jack and I are in awe looking at the detail in the wood.
“ I thought you couldn’t buy anything bro?” Jack asks getting a nod
“ I can’t, but I made the frames with 99 cent stuff. Look at the sides of the frame.” Adam tells us as Jack and I look
On the sides are all four of our names engraved in the wood. I feel the glass to find it’s the plastic kind. I am very astonished at how detailed he made these.
“ Adam bro you did one hell of a job on these. Mine is going by my bed.” Jack says getting a smile
I think for a moment before I get up going to the mantle. I place mine by the urn that holds May’s ashes. I turn to see both my friends looking at me.
“ If it’s ok with you two I want to place mine right here where it belongs.” I tell them getting smiles
“ Heath to me it looks good right there.” Adam says with a smile as Jack nods as my emo brother continues “ Now what about you buddy?”
I smile giving them a nod as I reach behind the urn to grab their gifts. I walk over handing the envelopes to each of my close friends. Both give me confused looks as I tell them to open them. I watch as they do only to see wide eyed smiles. Jack pulls out a key plus a gift card as does Adam.
“ Um what’s with the key, and the card Heath man?” Jack asks as Adam gives a questionable look
“ They keys are for here as I want you both to think of this house as home. The cards are 200 dollar gift cards. I tried to find the perfect gift, but there is no such thing that is more perfect then friendship.” I explain getting eyes of truth
“ You landed that on the mark.” Jack tells me as they both stand coming to me
We bro hug then look up and with happy voices say at the same time.
“ Merry Christmas Grandma we love you.” All three of us say in unison smiling
Ellie’s POV: Noon on Christmas
I am sat between Tiffany and Selena as they both smile at the baby clothes they received. Kiko, Verna, and I bought the clothes so our grand baby could start on her wardrobe. Although Selena was pregnant as of last month so she wasn’t showing yet for any of us to know the sex of the little one she was going to carry. Her and Chris finally came to the point they could move forward, but were still hurt for what they had done. These past months has been hard as we all watch the door hoping the one family member would show up only to say he was home. I was looking at my email’s on my phone when one popped up. I read it as I heard Kiko and Verna gasp as I did.
“ What is it mom?” Tiffany asked Verna to see wide eyes
“ Ellie, Kiko did you just get what I did as of now?” She asked us getting nods
“ Mom what is it you three just got?” Chris asked me as I looked up with wide eyes
“ A email from Heath, but there is no place to reply or a email.” I answer seeing Nate go to Kiko
“ Let me see that darlin.” He says as Kiko hands her the cell phone
He looks at the email doing some technical stuff.
“ That smart ass he has it where no one can find him, or send a email back. Heath is too smart for his own good.” Nate says making us confused
“ What do you mean by smart for his own good?” I ask as Nate chuckles
“ He is using email A to send to email B. It’s like sending a email at a specific time and day.” Nate says confusing me more
“ Nate maybe in English that I can understand.” I exclaim as everyone laughs as I giggle
“ Dad means Heath set up email messages ahead of time to be sent on holidays, but using fake IP’s.” Selena tells me making sense
“ Oh ok so Nate why didn’t you say that in the first place.” I say as he shrugs handing Kiko’s phone back to her
“ So what does the email say?” Mike asks as I look at my girlfriends getting a nod
“ It says ‘ I hope your family has a wonderful holiday, Merry Christmas, Heath’. I tell them all getting smiles
“ At least we know he is still alive.” Ricky says getting nods
I nod, but a big part of me wished my god son was here instead. I love him so much as my son. I keep thinking maybe if I just did something. Maybe if I called before this all happened he would be here. If only he came here the day after maybe I could of helped him in someway. And that dream I had Friday night didn’t help. Greg telling me Heath needed us more. What did he mean by that. My heart was in pain as my other son wasn’t here for the first time to receive his gift from me. I just hope Heath was safe and enjoying this day with others. I prayed he wasn’t alone. I looked at his picture on the wall after getting a new frame. I looked at the blue eyes and in my mind spoke from my heart. ‘ Heath if you can hear me in your heart. Just know your god parents love you deeply. Merry Christmas my loving Heath’.
Tiffany’s POV: Around 1 p.m. Christmas
As my family talk about the baby, and other things. I focus on the man I love hoping he is safe and happy. Once I found out I was pregnant from that first doctor visit I made sure to start eating right. I want Heath and my baby to be born with no problems. Every day I make sure to tell her of the man that I hope she will be like. Smart, caring, and love the family that stays strong. I have learned from my mistake all those months ago. I have stayed strong avoiding the other sex. I have focused my life in a positive way by decorating the nursery for the baby.
So far it’s coming along very well. I have even placed a big enough picture of Heath on the wall above the crib. I intend to tell my baby all about her father. The times we shared during the summers. The times on the flights to the school as well as home. How he cared for those around him besides loving them with his heart. Oh Heath where are you? Why haven’t you called or wrote me. I am so sorry for my mistakes, and also the hurt I had caused. I just hope we meet again one day to me a family. I still love you with all my heart. I hope you can still feel my love that I have always held in my heart for you. I love you Heath so very much. As I said those words I felt a kick. My eyes went wide as I felt another kick.
“ Tiffany honey you ok?” My mother asks as I massage my belly
“ The Baby…she kicked. She kicked when I thought of Heath.” I tell her seeing her smile
“ Aww she hears what your thinking honey. You both are connected, and when you think of Heath she is going to respond.” My mother tells me as I look at my belly
“ You think she knows who her father is already?” I ask as Ellie turns to look at me
“ Tiffany, she doesn’t exactly know as she is sensing what you feel. Just keep talking to her as she will learn more of the man who is her father.” My other god mother tells me
As I take in all that they tell me I feel my baby kick again. I smile at this knew sensation feeling my baby kick. I love this new look at being pregnant as I hope we grow closer each day.
Maggie’s POV: 2 p.m. as the day continues
The day as gone by with happiness and joy. My family has shown their love through the years, but still I feel a loss in my heart. Michelle and Travis are happy with how the past few years have turned out being in our new home away from the west coast. My husband Tyrone has made it a point that I was a stay at home wife and mother. I have enjoyed the past years, but again I have this loss that cannot be filled. That loss is of my son Heath as he is not here with me. Michelle and Travis told me he wanted to finish private school after they came back from their trip that March before I got married. He told them of his plans for college in California, but the letters he sent tell me other things as he didn’t want to be a part of this family. I miss him so much as my heart aches to hold him again. And the dream that haunts me of my deceased husband saying our son was on a path that Greg did not want him on, but yet he wouldn’t tell me where Heath was. The gravestone scared me to the point of fear. I have wept in private that my son is alive, and safe wanting to be with his family. Christmas is about family being together. As I sit on the couch between my kids I can only hope my son is thinking of me as I think of him. I am brought out of my thoughts as my daughter hands me a long slender gift.
“ This is from Travis and I mom.” Michelle tells me as I give her a small grin
“ Thank you honey.” I tell her as I open the gift
After I open it removing the wrapping my eyes go wide as it’s a locket in the shape of a heart. I look at the engraving that says ‘ We love you mom’. I open it up only to see a small picture of the two of them. I feel shocked as there is no picture of Heath. My heart seems to sink at that point, but I don’t show my sadness as I give them a fake smile.
“ Thank you both for this. I love you both so much.” I tell them with a half lie
“ We love you mom.” They both say in unison giving me hugs
After the hugs are done I look at the locket as my eyes fill with tears. I excuse myself as I need a moment to compose myself. I make my way out of the living room only to seek out my own private space. I made one of the guest rooms as my own den. Tyrone never questioned me about this decision as he had his own. Once in the room I lock the door only to move over to the rocking chair that was my mothers. As I get comfortable in the chair I take the key that is hidden under the side of the cushion to open the footlocker that was once Greg’s. I unlock the lock to open the top. I look inside for the only picture I was able to save. The picture is of my family before the love of my life passed away. I look at it once in my lap seeing the five smiles that have aged the past years. Greg is standing with Michelle and Travis as I hold Heath in my lap. His bright blue eyes looking at me make me wish he was here right now. As I hear a old song from the past I catch the lyrics they play.
