Daddy's Love novel Chapter 40

We are busy kissing each other, done away with most of my clothes (well, Grey was already naked under the covers) when we hear a knock.

"Daddy! Uncle Jay?!" I see them trying to push the door open. It's heavy for them. I chuckle and get up to open the door. I am shirtless and Grey, quite awake now. He pulls on a pair of shorts.

"Hello, there. What's the matter?" I pick her up. She looks over to her daddy to make sure he's not mad. Grey smiles at her and she visibly relaxes.

"We found a lot of things... In my room, that daddy said is a no-no. We don't know what to do with them. Carol said to go call you or daddy."

Just then we hear the fire alarm. Grey leaps out of bed runs to Ana's room. "Stay here!" he shouts.

One minute later, he comes back with a tearful Carol in his arms.

"Shh... It's okay... It's not your fault. It's my fault... " I sigh in relief and then I glare at her. She knows not to play with fire because of a certain incident in the past.

"Hushh... Don't be scared." Grey glares back at me. "You're safe. It's okay."

Ana wants out of my arms. She goes and hugs Carol, who then calms down.

"Daddy... Sorry?" Carol tells me, scared that I am mad at her and for good reason.

"It's okay, baby." I kiss her forehead. "But, if I see you playing with fire again, your butt will be on fire. I promise you that. You remember what happened last time, don't you?"

"Shut it, Jay. It was my fault. I don't know what was the matchbox doing in her room." Grey tells me.

The girls get busy talking to each other.

"Then your ass will be on fire." I mouth at him.

He shows me his middle finger. I can't help but grin.

Later, we are in the kitchen eating breakfast. They like the food so much. It's such a happy day, all four of us, together, it seems after a lifetime.

"Grey, why don't you give a bath to these babies while I clean Ana's room?" I tell Grey.

"No daddy! No bathing yet! We want to Playyyy!" Both the girls whine.

The phone rings.

I go to pick up the call. When I come back the girls are still troubling Grey for bath time.
