Taking this as his chance, he flipped the ring around in his mouth then worked his lips over her ring finger, sliding it on all the way. The entire time, he looked up into her eyes.

Shock registered as she realized what hed done.

John, I"

Will you marry me? he asked before he lost his chance. I mean, I know you said you want to, and were already planning it, but I wanted to actually, you know, officially ask the question.

Then she started crying. Happy tears, he was pleased to see, nodding as she let go of the leash and flung herself onto him. Yes!

Apparently their friends had been paying attention after all, maybe with Tillys forewarning. The room erupted into applause as John ended up on his back on the floor, Abbey straddling him, kissing him.

He took advantage of that, grabbed her by the hips, and sank his c.o.c.k home into her p.u.s.s.y.

That got her attention.

He swallowed her moans as she kept kissing him, actively f.u.c.king him back as they lay there going at it. He reached up and cupped her b.r.e.a.s.t.s through her dress, freeing them from it, pulling down the front, the cheers of their friends fading away in his brain as he sucked her nipple into his mouth and then nipped it.

Her needy moan dug straight through his c.o.c.k. He rolled, taking her with him, flipping her onto her back and hooking his arms under hers to keep her from sliding away from him. Harder, faster, deeper, he drove his c.o.c.k into her as he stared down into her eyes, knowing she was close.

Come for me, baby, he said. Give me what I want.

Nails raked down his back, her heels digging into his a.s.s as she came.

Good girl, he said, speeding up and glad to finally be able to blow his load, the b.u.t.t plug still wedged in his a.s.s making it difficult to hold back in the first place. As he finally collapsed on top of her, another round of cheers went up.

Beneath him, Abbey started giggling.

When he pushed up onto his elbows to look, she was grinning, clamping down on her lower lip with her teeth as she tried to hold back the laughter.

She grabbed his leash, which still hung from his collar, and pulled him in for another kiss.

We should give out a gift certificate to Sigalos to anyone who can accurately explain that scene to the rest of us, Tilly called out, starting another round of laughter around the room.

He unsnapped the leash and sat up, helping Abbey sit up in front of him. She blushed as she started trying to put the girls away in her dress. No, this wasnt the wildest thing their friends had seen from them at a party, but it was certainly the least-antic.i.p.ated outcome on their part. Usually if they started in one role at a party, they finished before switching over.

I think I need to go take out this b.u.t.t plug and clean up, he said. What do you think?

She leaned in to kiss him again. I think thats a great ideaSir.

He pulled her left hand up to his mouth and feathered his lips over her finger. Good thing I didnt accidentally swallow that, he said. Youd have to go fishing around for it in the other end with a glove and some lube.

She burst out laughing, falling against him. I think I might call red on that, Sir. Sorry. Youd have to wait for it to pa.s.s naturally.

He stood and helped her up. Then lets get our stuff and ourselves cleaned up. I have a feeling people will want to say something to us, but not likethis.

Agreed.

Chapter Eight.

Clarisse knew she couldnt wait all night to do what she had to do. Plus she knew shed need at least enough pee in her to do both tests. Right now, she had to go pretty darn bad.

Add to that the worry Sully might opt to rig her instead of Mac for the contest, and there would go her chance.

She grabbed her bag and snagged Abbey during a lull in the congratulations, pulling her into the master bedroom and closing the door behind them.

I need your help, Clarisse admitted, forcing herself not to burst into tears.

Abbey frowned. Sweetie, whats wrong?

Well, theoretically, Clarisse wanted as many of her friends around her as she could get. Practically, that would be impossible. For starters, the men of the party would notice if nearly all the women there suddenly disappeared into the master bedroom.

Then there was the fact that a couple of them were already in the process of being rigged. Leah was actually rigging Seth, so she wouldnt be able to join them, either.

Please, I cant explain, and Mac and Sully cant know yet. Can you grab Tilly and maybe Loren and Essie? Bring them in here? Only if they can get away without any of the guys noticing.

Sure, but"

Please?

Abbey rested her hands on Clarisses shoulders. Talk to me. Youre scaring me.

Clarisse couldnt say it. She opted to dig into her purse and hand one of the sealed test kits and the instruction sheet to her.

Abbey had to turn the instructions around to read them Then realization dawned.

Im scared, Clarisse said. And I really need at least a couple of you guys with me when I do this.

But what about Mac and Sully?

Ill explain after. Please?

Abbey nodded and handed them back to her. Ill be right back. Abbey hugged Clarisse, kissing her on the forehead before hurrying out, shutting the door behind her.

As Clarisse sank to the bed, the full realization of what she was about to do hit her.

Worse, the circ.u.mstances around it.

Shed deliberately concealed something pretty d.a.m.n big from her men, something theyd already told her was her decision to make. Shed had no reason to hide it, and now she was probably going to make it worse.

Since shed come this far, at least she wanted to know the full extent of how badly shed f.u.c.ked up before admitting it to her guys.

Abbey returned a couple of minutes later with Tilly and Loren. Abbey locked the bedroom door behind her while Loren muttered and tried to shut off the glowing hearts hanging from her nipple rings. It took her a couple of attempts and getting them through the various flashing sequences before she found the off setting.

I hate these d.a.m.n things, Loren groused. I feel like a derpy dog. I can see Im going to have to readjust my hard limits with Ross.

Tilly wore an expression of all business. Honey, whats going on? she asked Clarisse. Abbey said you needed us.

Shed dug the other test kit out of her bag. She held up the two sealed pouches and the instructions.

Tilly frowned, immediately catching on. Why are you acting like this is a bad thing?

Because I f.u.c.ked up. Big time.

Tillys gaze narrowed even more. If you are about to tell us you cheated on those guys, Im going to drive you to the hospital myself and have you admitted for a thorough exam and an MRI. Because I wouldnt believe youd say something like that unless you had a serious head injury or an alien parasite or something.

Clarisse shook her head.

Well, lets do this, Tilly said, obviously taking charge, much to Clarisses relief. Either you are, or you arent. But I suspect if youve got two test kits you already have a strong suspicion as to this questions answer.

Clarisse nodded.

Tilly took the test pouches and instructions from Clarisse before she gently grabbed her arm and herded her up off the bed and into the master bathroom. Loren and Abbey started to hang back at the doorway, but Clarisse motioned to them.

No, please come in. Not like Im bashful in front of you. This is why I wanted you here. Youve seen worse.

Loren snorted as she grabbed Abbeys robe off the back of the bathroom door and pulled it on. You aint kiddin, sweetie.

Tilly, now in full-on nurse mode"not even the kinky kind"completely read through the instructions before ripping open the kits and handing Clarisse the first one. Ill get the second one ready and well switch off.

I have gloves, if you want them, Abbey said.

Tilly snorted. Please. Ive had my fingers up Cris a.s.s before. She must have noticed their reactions, because she said, Hey, Ive washed up since. h.e.l.lo, nurse. Nursing students go through h.e.l.l like you wouldnt believe. Not to mention when they actually are working. Accidentally getting a little of my friends pee on my fingers isnt going to kill me. Besides, Eddie nearly sprayed me in the face that first time I tried to change his diaper.

Clarisse had to keep from laughing so she didnt mess up and have to wait until next time she had to pee. I warned you boys are tricky. She stuck the test strip into the stream as she went.

I never did pediatrics, except briefly in school. I mostly trained on and worked with adults.

Except Landry, Loren said. Hes a big baby.

The biggest, Tilly agreed, swapping out the testers when Clarisse handed the first over. Sir Fussypants. She capped the tester and set it on the counter, the second cap at the ready. Thank G.o.d hes only like that when hes not feeling well. My own d.a.m.n fault. He warned me he wasnt a good patient when we met. But I wouldnt trade him or Cris for the world.

After Clarisse handed Tilly the second tester and it was capped and safely on the counter, Tilly moved to the sink to wash her hands. Time, anyone?

Eh, I dont think thatll be necessary, Abbey said, pointing.

Already, the first was starting to show a line in the positive window as well as the control window. The second was working through the control window.

Tilly looked down at the testers. Well, lets see what the other one does.

Clarisse had finished and washed her hands and joined her friends just in time to see the second one start turning positive, too.

Now she wasnt sure if the lump in her stomach was from nervesor the baby.

Tilly, Abbey, and Loren wrapped their arms around Clarisse as she softly cried. She didnt even know for sure if they were happy or sad or confused tears.

Then again, at that point, it could be hormones, for all she knew.

It was Tilly who took the reins again. She gripped Clarisse by the shoulders.

Okay. Now what gives? Why isnt this a happy thing, and why arent your Frick and Frack in here with you?

She weepily explained, feeling stupid and silly and really, really guilty as she told it. When she finished, her friends surrounded her again.

Honey, Abbey said, Im sure the guys will understand. You were nervous, and then She looked at Loren. Help me out, here.

You did want to have another baby, didnt you? Loren asked her.

Yeah. I just hadnt decided yet.

Well, that explains it, Tilly snarked.

I justWed actually sort of talked about it a little. Then Essie and her guys made their announcement. And I got to thinking about it. I guess I just Wasnt thinking? Tilly eventually finished for her.

Yeah. Then it was happy hump day every day, and I kept waffling.

Until you got your a.s.s caught in a waffle iron, Tilly said.

Clarisse nodded. Yeah.

I would suggest telling them now, Abbey said. Not just tonight, but right now. Ill go get them and bring them in. We can stay with you while you tell them, if you want us to, or we can give you guys some privacy.

Privacy might be best, Loren gently said. But well wait outside in case you need us once Tilly gets them in here.

Tilly disengaged from them. Sure, throw the Domme switch on the sword, she teased as she headed toward the bedroom door. Ill bring them into the bathroom. Well wait in the bedroom with the door locked to keep things private until youre done.

Clarisse stared down at the testers. Yep, they were both positive. No doubt about it.

Congratulations? Abbey offered. I hope?

Yeah, Loren said. We can throw you and Essie kinky baby showers together.

Tilly returned, alone. Bad news, theyre in the middle of spotting for Leah and Seth, and if I drag them out of there and get stand-ins, thats going to make everyone wonder what the h.e.l.ls going on. Everyone who isnt actively rigging their own stuff is watching whats going on. I can get them if you want"

No, Clarisse said, wiping at her face with her hands. No. Ill tell them after thats done. I dont want everyone else freaking out and thinking Im dying or something. And Im not sure Sully will want to tell everyone yet.

Why wouldnt he? Tilly asked.

Clarisse gave Tilly the look.

Right, sorry. Master. Gotcha. He makes the call. See? We switches, we tend to forget about that s.h.i.t.
