Let Me Love You Again
Chapter 121

Nate

The two of the deliveries laid the last box sighing. I looked at the room full of boxes full of stuff from

having to assemble in order to complete the baby’s room.

“Perfect,” I said, proud of myself, “thank you, I show you the way out,” I said to the two men.

We walked out of the room and I walked them to the door, and as we passed by the living room we heard uncontrollable crying, I immediately looked at what was going on, seeing Jess and Maya sitting on the couch.

I got chills, that morning I barely managed to contain a crisis of epochal dimensions just because for a moment I did not become hard, and now I found myself with a double crisis, one of which was my sister, the harpy.

“Women,” said one of the men, snorting as he walked out the door.

I left the tip in the other man’s hand and closed the door and then took a deep breath and went into the room, praying I didn’t get the blame this time.

Maya was sitting with her back on the armrest of the sofa, holding Emma, sleeping happily while Maya cried desperately. On the opposite side was Jess, knees pulled up and Liam lying on them while his mother cried desperately. Among them was Axel, sitting in the centre of the sofa staring in front of him, completely stiff while next to him two women cried desperately.

I approached him and I stroked his hair from behind and he immediately turned and looked at me, his eyes begging me to save him from that situation and actually I was the first one who wanted to run away with legs up to avoid having to put up with two hormones, But I knew if I looked the other way, I’d take the fall anyway.

So I picked up Axel and sat in the armchair next to the sofa, with a desperate sigh, closely followed by my child who imitated me.

I cleared my throat and prepared myself for the worst “Why are you crying?” I asked as gently as possible

“You’re a man you wouldn’t understand,” answered my sister sobbing.

You rolled your eyes and looked at Maya “Mon amour?”

Maya looked at me, her grey eyes completely reddened, her face streaked with tears and her lips trembling “Jess is crying” she said in a hoarse voice from crying “She’s sad and I can’t stop crying” Maya said, crying even more.

Okay, if I said something wrong, I’d get my balls cut off, I could handle Maya, I knew how to control her mood swings, but the harpy, she was a whole other story, so I had to be careful how I had to think about how to act, otherwise I would have found my balls hanging in the middle of town.

I looked over at my crying sister watching Liam sleep peacefully. I took a deep breath.

“What is it, Jess?” I asked as gently as possible.

“Nothing,” she answered, sobbing.

“It’s nothing if you’re on the verge of hysterics and in the middle of a river of tears, Maya is crying, too. You know that I read that kids can sense their parents’ nervousness and absorb it like a sponge?”

“Where do you read all this crap?” Jess said sourly.

“I’m reading a children’s book, actually I’ve been reading children’s books since Maya and I got engaged, so as to better understand how to deal with Axel” I admitted.

Maya suddenly turned to me, tears completely gone as her eyes were filled with a fire of rage. Well, I f****d up, I thought deep down.

“What?!” Maya hissed, standing straight, “Did you train yourself? You know how long I thought you didn’t have what it takes to be a mother seeing how you got on with Axel and instead you studied?!”

“f**k,” I said quietly.

“duck” Axel repeated.

“Do you think I’m stupid?”

“Absolutely not Mon amour, I didn’t want to look like a fool and not even be able to change a diaper. You were always so fast and you left him clean in two minutes, me with two minutes could only understand how to open the f*****g diaper” I said shrugging “I didn’t want to disfigure”

“Tigurare” Axel repeated behind me, resting his back on my chest.

“Because you were great Mon amour,” I said, looking at her with what I hoped would be my sweetest look.

Maya nodded, satisfied with the response, and rested her back on the armrest, then placed Emma in her arms. I sighed, relieved. I had managed to escape another crisis, I was beginning to be good at it.

I looked at Jess looking at me as if she understood exactly what I was doing. I shrugged and looked at her.

“So?” I asked her again.

“It’s for Andrew,” she sighed, “Things aren’t good, we hardly ever see each other, we hardly ever talk, he takes tiring shifts and when he’s home he spends his time with the kids.”

“They haven’t f****d in three months,” Maya chanted.

“May!” Jess scolded her.

“What is it? Isn’t that what matters most to you?”

My sister shook her annoying head, “We don’t have time for each other anymore, and when we do, he sleeps. I’m afraid he doesn’t want me anymore and that he found someone better,” Jess said, crying again.

“Andrew? The same Andrew who when he sees you looks like he’s seeing the sun for the first time? The one with the drool at the mouth always and the one who follows you like a little dog? It seems a bit ‘risky Jess” I said in all sincerity possible.

“Yes, him! You don’t understand! He doesn’t even look at me anymore! It’s like I’m invisible! He doesn’t even try to touch me anymore!” Jess complained.

“Have you ever thought that he thinks you’re too tired after having to look after two babies day and night?” I said, frowning.

“But please Nate!” hysterical Jess said, “He doesn’t even try! He just sleeps and I’ve been without s*x for months”

“Why don’t you try throwing yourself at him? If you’re, like, horny,” I said, taking a deep breath, “He’s probably horny, too, and if you jump naked on him, he’ll probably rip your clothes off for you,” I said trying not to think about the fact that I was talking to my sister.

“He’s not horny if he has another!” Jess whimpered.

“He doesn’t have another one for heaven’s sake, Jess!” I said exasperated.

“You can’t be sure! Sometimes he works 48-hour shifts! You never know what he does in his resting hours!”

I put my hands on my face. Arguing with Jess drained me of all energy. Axel turned to me and looked at me, it looked like pity what I could see in his eyes.

“Sorry daddy,” he said as if he felt my frustration.

“Let’s do one thing,” I said, trying to help her, “Why don’t you leave the kids here for tonight and have a night just you and him? So you can have all the s*x you want,” I said shivering.

Maya looked at me frowning “Why with us? To make Jess have s*x I have to give it up?!” she asked me in amazement.

“What else can I do to help you?”

“Certainly don’t sacrifice my s*x!” Maya replied annoyed.

Jess looked at her, eyes pleading “Please May,” she said with a trembling voice.

Maya shook her head but Jess kept looking at her with the same look I used against her when I wanted something, it always worked.

Maya snorted, “Oh fine! But you owe me a night of wild s*x!” she said to Jess.

“I’d give you what you want but I don’t have a d**k, I can offer you a vibrator,” she sighed as I plugged Axel’s ears and let them talk about all the s*x toys possible.

Also discovered, to my chagrin, that Maya also had some hidden ones, which was very disappointing since we could use them together if she shared her stash.
