A Second Chance

Chapter 2

“Mom! Where are you? I’m home!” I heard Tristan yelling, waking me from my dream.

“I’m in my room lying down,” I called from my room.

I could hear him running down the hall. I knew he was probably worried about me, since I never sleep during the day. “Hey Mom, everything ok?” he asked me.

“Yes, bud, everything is fine,” I told him. “I’ve just been extra stressed and needed a catnap. I feel better now.”

“Good,” he said, “Because I need a ride.”

I rolled my eyes. “Where to now?” I asked him.

“Just to the mall,” Tristan replied, “a bunch of us want to go to the arcade. There’s a new game and I have to make my stand!” he said.

I laughed. These kids, all they worry about is video games. “OK,” I said, “be ready in 10 minutes. That’s when the bus leaves.”

Tristan rolled his eyes. “You’re so weird, Mom,” he laughed.

“Where do you think you get it from? Now out so I can wake up and pull myself together,” I told him.

He left to go grab a snack while he waited for me. My mind went back to my dream, which was actually a memory of the first time I ever spoke with Jonah. I remembered the sound of his voice and how much it intrigued me, how I could not wait to talk to him again. I just wanted to hear his voice every day. Ugh, stop it Taliah, I told myself. No time for daydreaming or memories. Time to go be a parent. Adulting really sucks!

After I dropped Tristan at the mall, I picked up Jax and Illy from their afterschool program. Tristan told me he had a ride home from one of his friends so I didn’t have to go back out to pick him up. When I pulled up to our building, I noticed Jonah’s truck in the driveway. I guessed they had gotten done earlier than expected. After parking the car, I sent the kids to go do their homework while I went to look for Jonah. I found him in the bathroom taking a shower.

“Hey baby,” I said to him, “you’re home early.”

“Yea, it wasn’t as much as he thought it was gonna be,” Jonah replied. “He still paid me for the whole day though. So that was cool.”

“Well, I’m glad to hear that,” I said. “I’m going to go start dinner while you finish your shower. Meet me in the kitchen when you’re done?”

“Ok, I will,” he said. I left the bathroom and went into the kitchen. I opened the fridge to see what my options were for dinner. There was pork chops, chicken and ground beef. I also had a sack of potatoes and canned corn that I bought the other day, so I decided to make Shepard’s Pie. I cut up the potatoes to set them to boil. Then I opened and drained the corn then set it to the side. I fried up the ground beef, drained it and then spread it in a casserole pan, covering the layer of meat with a layer of corn. When the potatoes were done boiling, I drained and mashed them, adding in sour cream, butter and seasonings. I added a layer of potatoes on top of the corn, sprayed some spray butter on top, then sprinkled some paprika before popping the dish into the oven to bake for a bit. I decided to catch up on one of my programs while I waited for dinner to finish. Meanwhile, Jonah had come in and started cleaning up the kitchen while I was cooking. He joined me in the living room and I turned on the TV to look for my show.

After the episode was done, I checked on the food and it was ready. Jonah set the table then called for his kids. I served up dinner and we sat down to eat. A few minutes later, Tristan came home. I quickly fixed him a plate so he could join us for dinner. After we were all done eating, I asked the kids to put away the leftovers, soak the dishes and clean up the kitchen. Then they were to go brush their teeth before finishing their homework. Jonah and I sat on the couch in the living room.

“Have you heard anything new about the case?” I asked him.

“Not yet,” he said. “But the guy did say it would take a few weeks. We just have to be patient and let him do his thing.”

I sighed in frustration. “It’s just taking so long! I just want all this to be over so we can get our lives back.”

He pulled me in for a hug. “I know babe,” he said, “but these guys know what they’re doing. Mr. Costa wouldn’t have them otherwise. I know you’re frustrated. I am too! But we have to wait and be patient and just go about our business until they get back to us.”

“I know, I know,” I said. “I’ll try to be more patient. I just hope they get back to us soon.”

It was Friday afternoon. I got all the kids right from school, since it was time for them to see their other parents. I dropped Tristan off with his father first. After confirming when he would bring our son home, I headed to Jonah’s ex-wife, Missy’s house to drop off his two kids. Missy wasn’t a great mom and barely spent time with them, but she was their mother and they still loved her. Regardless of mine or their father’s feelings, she had a right to see them. I just wished she would stick to a regular schedule instead of this sporadic sh*t she kept pulling. I pulled up and didn’t see her car. I called her.

“Hello?” she answered.

“Hey, it’s Taliah. I’m outside your house. Where are you?”

“I’m home. Dennis has the car,” she said. “I’ll be right out.”

She came outside and waited for the kids to get their stuff out of my trunk. “Can you guys take the kids back early?” Missy asked me.

I glared at her. “You barely spend time with them as it is, then you want to send them home early? For what? What could be more important than your kids?” I yelled at her.

She blanched and lowered her eyes. “Well, Dennis wanted to take me somewhere special. He said it was gonna be a surprise.”

I shook my head. “You are unbelievable!” I said. “NO! We cannot take the kids back early because we have plans for the weekend and we won’t be home. So you two will have to wait for another time for a date night,” I said to her. “Jax and Illy keep asking when they will get to see you and it’s sad. Spend some time with your kids. At least try to pretend that you still f***ing care!”

She mumbled incoherently and turned away to walk back to the house. I looked at the kids and said “Try to have a good time and behave for your mom. We will see you Monday morning to take you to school.” I hugged each of them and sent them in to be with their mother. I watched as the door closed behind them. I sat there for another minute feeling sorry for those two kids, knowing there wasn’t much we could do. So I composed myself and went home.

When I got home, I found Jonah was waiting for me in the living room. “Have you packed your bag yet?” he asked me.

“Yes I did, this morning before I dropped the kids off at school,” I said.

He smiled and hugged me. “Good. Then grab your stuff and we’ll get going.”

I ran to our room and grabbed my packed bag, as well as my phone, purse and laptop. I had a few j***ts rolled for myself (Jonah didn’t smoke) and I made sure to grab my cart pen as well. I did a last check to make sure I had everything I was going to need for our weekend getaway. We were renting a small cabin on Block Island so we’d have our privacy. After ensuring that I had everything, I met Jonah at the door. We went out to the truck and we were on our way to Block Island.

We headed to Narragansett to catch the ferry to Block Island. Jonah waited patiently to be allowed to drive his truck onto the ferry. Once we were parked, we got out and walked around, while waiting to leave the dock. We grabbed some snacks and drinks at the snack bar, and then we found a bench to sit on near the railings, so we could watch the scenery as the ferry cruised. Before we knew it, we were pulling into the Block Island ferry dock. We drove off the boat and pulled off to the side so Jonah could enter the address of the cabin we rented into the GPS. When he drove up, the first thing I noticed was how gorgeous it was! It was a cute little log cabin set in the woods. It had a wrap-around porch that led to the deck behind the cabin. There was a small backyard with a fire pit, which we would definitely make use of. Jonah parked the truck; we got out and grabbed our bags then headed into the cabin-the owner had told us where to find the key. The interior was even more adorable than the exterior. We walked into a cozy living room, with a large mounted TV and a fireplace. To the right was a small kitchen with a dinette set. All the appliances were modern. The walls of the cabin matched the exterior and the floors were all hardwood. To the right was the bedroom with an en suite bathroom. There was a king sized bed in the middle of the room. The closet was very spacious. The bathroom had a Jacuzzi-style tub and a large walk-in shower. It was a bathroom from my richest fantasies!

We placed our bags in the bedroom before going to sit on the couch in the living room to rest for a few. It had been a long week and I was glad it was finally over. I was looking forward to a very relaxing weekend.

“What do you want to do about dinner?” Jonah interrupted my thoughts.

“Well, the food has been stocked up here. We could cook something,” I replied. “Or we could go out to eat. There was a cute little diner I saw on our way here. That or we could order in.”

“Do you really feel like cooking?”

“Not really.”

“Well then we’re left with the other 2 options. So would you rather go out, or dine in?”

I thought about it. I really did want to check out that little diner. And my stomach was rumbling. “Let’s go check out that little diner. We’ll have a real date night,” I said.

The diner turned out better than I expected. It looked so small on the outside, but once you got in there, you realized looks can be deceiving. It was very cute and cozy with a homey feel. The staff was wonderful and the food was amazing. By the time we left, I could barely walk I was so full.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to eat for a week,” I said.

Jonah laughed. “You say that now, but in an hour you’re gonna want dessert.”

“Only if it’s chocolate cake!”

We drove back to the cabin and decided to watch a new movie. I had brought my Firestick with us when I found out this place had Wi-Fi, and I was able to stream all the new movies. When we got back, we each went to the bathroom before putting our pajamas on and getting into bed. We decided on a new horror movie that was out. Jonah wasn’t a big fan, but I loved horror movies!

We started the movie and then I cuddled up next to Jonah. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me tight. As the movie progressed, Jonah started to run his fingers lightly up and down my arms, giving me tingles. I leaned into him more as his hands started exploring the rest of my body. He then started to kiss my neck, moving his lips up to behind my ear and back down again. He trailed light kisses across my collar bone to my shoulder, then back again before doing it again on the other side. A small moan escaped my lips. I felt him smile against my neck. I turned towards him before grabbing the back of his neck and smashing my lips to his. I felt his tongue slide into my mouth, slowly massaging mine.

Jonah then removed my t-shirt before kissing me again. His hands found their way under my bra and started kneading my breasts. Then I felt his thumbs start caressing my n*pples. I threw my head back and groaned in delight. All of a sudden I felt his mouth suck my n*pple into his mouth, while his thumb continued to caress the other one. I grabbed the back of his shirt and started pulling on it. He sat up and allowed me to pull his shirt off his body. Then his lips went back to my breasts and my hands started massaging his body.

“Mmmmm,” I moaned.

“Tell me what you want. What should I do to you?”

“Mmm I want your... mmm…f-face between my l-l-legs,” I stuttered as he continued to tease my n*pples.

“You want me to eat you like it’s my last meal?”

“Yes! Please!” I cried.

Jonah kept teasing my n***les for a few more minutes before he started to trail kisses down my stomach, dipping his tongue into my belly button. His tongue tickled my naval and made me giggle before he moved his mouth farther south. He moved his lips across my waist and my hips, lightly licking the sensitive areas with the tip of his tongue. He slipped his thumbs into the waistband of my panties and slowly pulled them down.

“Baby, please!” I cried. And then I felt his tongue slowly slide up my slit, causing tingles to run through my body. He gently massaged my outer lips with his fingers, while his tongue lightly licked my c****ris. I moaned and he started sucking on my c**t. I bucked my hips before he held me down. He continued to lick my p**sy with fervor, making my juices flow down my crack. All of a sudden, he plunged his fingers inside and started pumping them in and out quickly, while his tongue continued to ravish my c**t. I pumped my hips faster and faster until I started to feel the pressure build.

“Don’t stop baby! That feels so f***ing good!”

Jonah pumped his fingers inside of me faster, causing me to pump my hips faster. His tongue was all over my c**t when suddenly he lightly bit down and my orgasm hit me like a freight train. I yelled out my pleasure as he licked up all my juices. I rode out my orgasm, yelling out Jonah’s name. When he was done, he kissed me, sticking his tongue in my mouth so I could taste myself. It was so f**king sexy to taste my c*m on my man’s lips. I grabbed his c*ck, which was already hard, and started rubbing it through his pants. He groaned into my mouth.

I pushed against Jonah until he was lying on his back. I then unbuttoned and unzipped his pants. He lifted his hips so I could pull his pants and boxers off. His large hard p**is sprung free. I grabbed it in my hand and started to run my hand up and down his length. I swirled my thumb around his tip, spreading his prec*m all over. I used my other hand to grab and massage his balls. Then I lowered my head and took his c*ck into my mouth. I bobbed up and down, running my tongue up and down his hard unit. He slowly started to pump his hips, making his p**is hit the back of my throat. I started to breathe through my nose as he continued to f*ck my mouth. I could hear him moaning and panting, which turned me on, starting my juices flowing again. Jonah pumped his c*ck into my mouth faster and faster while I used my hands to play with his balls. Suddenly, I felt his balls tense and then he shot his load down my throat. I swallowed all of him before releasing his d**k.

“Damn baby, that was so f***ing good,” he said.

“Oh don’t worry; I am not done with you yet. But I do need a little break.”
