Michael's POV

It's the first day i've left the house since we moved back with Jermaine and Randy and I are working on a house today and I brought DJ with me so it wouldn't be to much for Ocean being home alone with all three of the children and it feels really weird not having my girls around me. and even though I'm happy about going back to work, I feel bad about leaving them home alone.

"you ok? You seem pretty quiet" Randy asks "it just feels kinda weird"

"It's your first day back. That's understandable. You just have to take to it one step at a time" he smiles through pursed. "How's Ocean?"

"She's not been out yet either, but other than that she's alot better now. I feel real bad about leaving her home alone with the girls though. I hope she's ok" I sigh "isn't Aisha or Jermaine there?"

"no. I um.. I don't really wanna leave her alone with Jermaine after. You know" I mumble. "I thought you guys had put all that behind you"

"we have but, I can't help but worry that she'll want him again. I do trust her but.. But What if you know?"

"what?" He looks at me confused and I sigh taking a deep breath. "what if she preferred it better with him?" I mumble. "your her husband and were each others first. Of course she's doesn't prefer him. She made a mistake. Just like you did with Aisha"

"exactly which means Jermaine's way more experienced than me and older and..."

"and so was Aisha. did you enjoy it more or feel like that about her?" He cuts me off "of course not! I hated when I did it and I've regretted it ever since" I tell him honestly. "so what makes you think Ocean would feel any different about Jermaine?" He raised and eyebrow. And I don't answer "Ocean loves you just as much as you love her and just like you she made a mistake and regretted it since"

"I guess I'm just being a little paranoid" I shrug. Trying not to think about it anymore. "why don't you call Ocean and we can all go out to to lunch?" He smiles changing the subject. "I don't know. Ocean and Princess are still pretty delicate and it might be a too much for her to..."

"Mike it's ok. Nobody's gonna take them away" Randy cuts me off "but what if it's to much for her and.."

"it's ok daddy" DJ says walking over to me. "if mommy get scared then we can take her home. Please can they come?" he smile and I sigh taking a deep breath "alright I'll call, but if it's to much I'm taking them straight home" I say sternly to both DJ and Randy and they both nod smiling.

Ocean's POV

I felt nervous at first about coming out for lunch, especially with the children, but once we got to the café and I saw Michael I started to feel a little more relaxed. "how did everything go this morning?" He asks as I sit down beside him "It wasn't to much for you was is?" 

"everything was fine" I smile "are you sure? Because if it's too much for you right now. I can always.. "

"baby, it's fine I told you to it would be. It's not my first at this ya know" I giggle slightly and he smiles holding my hand under the table. "well if it ever gets to much or you need a break just say the word an I'll be straight home"

As we're all eating and talking Michael. And I tell Randy about our plans to sell our house and move somewhere else. "Makes sense why you wouldn't want to go back. I actually know this guy who's looking to buy a bigger house. Do you want me to give him your number and set up a viewing?"

"thanks. but um..."

"or I could do the viewing" Randy cuts Michael off sensing our nervousness about going back to the house.

"you ok sweetie?" I ask DJ noticing he's suddenly gone silent and I turn to the direction he's looking and see Sherri walking in and order something. "oh great!" I roll my eyes as she smiles walking over to us. "Ocean! You looking well. Glad to see you out and about again" she smiles and I smile back sarcastically through pursed lips. "awww.. An this must be your new little addition" she coos turning to look at Princess and Michael quickly takes her from her stroller and holds her close to his chest not saying anything to Sherri.

"I'm not going to do anything" she says sensing our uneasiness "None of this was my fault. Your mother was and is still ill... Just like you was at one point" she says softly turning to me. "I never kidnaped and sick newborn baby from a hospital did I!?" I frown. "she wasn't in her right mind when that happened and she didn't mean to frighten you with that letter. She just wanted you both to know she's truly sorry for what's she's done. She getting help in the hospital and..."

"we don't give a fuck if she's sorry or how's she's doing. She can rot in that place for all we care!" Michael snaps cutting her off and she turns back to me, ignoring Michael's comment. "she'd really like to see you and.." 

"forget it!" Michael cuts her off again. "I was actually speaking to Ocean" she frowns at him "they just told you no and they don't care about her. So why don't you take the hint?" Randy cuts in. "Ocean please. Just hear her out"

"I wanna go home now?" I turn to Michael and him and Randy both get up and we start making our way out with the kids. "just think about it... Please" Sherri shouts as where leaving and we walk out not answering her.

**

"this is all my fault I'm so sorry" Randy sighs. "you weren't to know she'd go there" Michael's shrugs. "but I was pushing you guys to come out and then when you finally do this happens"

"it's not your fault. that was gonna happen eventually" I shrug "are you ok?" Michael and softly and I nod. "I just wish everybody would just leave us alone and let us have a normal life for once"

Jessica's POV

"so what happened is she going to come?" I ask hopefully when Sherri arrived to visit me "I'm sorry. I did try, but Michael was there and neither of them were best pleased to see me" she frowns looking annoyed "they were probably just surprised. Did you explain about the letter? And.."

"I tried but they just refused to listen and were just as rude as always" she frowns "I haven't done anything to either of them and all I did was explain about you and ask about the baby and they just bit my head of and stormed out with the kids!"

"they had the children with them?" I smile "did you see the baby? How is she? Does she look healthy?"

"they were all there with Michael's brother Randy and I don't know what she looked like. I tried to look and Michael grabbed her before I had the chance"

"they wouldn't even let you look at her?" I mutter disappointed. I was really hoping Sherri would have been able to tell me how's she's doing.

"I still can't believe how everybody acts so proud of the two of them. When I was their age, being teenage parent was something to be ashamed off" she shakes her head. "they are pretty good with them. When I stayed with them for a while Duncan and Nevaeh were really well behaved and Nevaeh's really advanced like Duncan" I smile at the memories. "no thanks to them two" Sherri scoffs "they didn't raise either of them remember? Your were the one that raised Duncan and Nevaeh was with Michael's brother and girlfriend while they were off doing drugs! They haven't done a single thing to help raise those kids. Just like all teenage parents they dumped the kids on their families then came back once all the hard work was done. I'd hate to see what the baby turns out like. Hopefully they'll let Michael's parents raise this one too, so it dosen't get too messed up... and the stupid names they give them! Nevaeh Star and Princess Ocean! It's like they want their kids to get beat up at school!" Sherri rants shaking her head. "I think they choose the names because of meaning or something like that. Duncan Joesph is a nice name though" I point out. "which most likely Michael's parents picked" she scoffs.

"even with the silly names. they do try to be good parents" I admit and sigh looking at the ground. "you were a good mother. Your just I'll at the moment and Ocean will see that eventually" Sherri reasures me. "you really think so?" I look up and smiles. "of course! And Ocean will come around eventually and you'll be better soon and she'll be able to see for herself what a wonderful mother you can be"

"they told you that!? they'd give me another chance!?"

"well no.. But they will in time. You just concentrate on getting better for your daughters sake" she smiles through pursed lips and I smile back excitedly at the thought of getting out of here and now knowing Michael and Ocean are giving me the chance to be a mother again.

Michael's POV

It really pissed me off today Sherri turning up like that and saying all that stuff about Jessica. It was Ocean's first time really being outside of the house after everything that happened and she just went and ruined it and I'm sure she had that whole speach thought out and followed us in there. Ocean said she's fine about it and shrugged it off, but I know she's lying because I could see in her eyes how upset she really was, but like me she doesn't like to get upset around the children.

"I got a surprise for the you and the kids" I smile getting into bed "what is it?' Ocean smiles back joining me "we're all gonna go away for the weekend just the five of us"

"to where?" She asks a little nervously "do you remember my old co-workers cabin?"

"It'll be just us?"

"yeah, but don't worry he promised he'd keep it between us and we won't tell anybody else exactly where we're going so we don't have to worry about anyone. It'll be just me you and our beautiful babies and nobody and nothing else" I reassure her. "thank you" she smiles kissing me softly. "you don't have to thank me for anything. I'm never gonna let anything happen to you or our kids ever again. I promise" I smile onto her lips then kiss her deeply leading her down onto the bed.

Ocean moans slightly kissing my neck as I slowing push myself deep inside of her. I slowly begin thrusting and gradually picking up the pace and I suddenly see Aisha from the corner of my eye, hiding outside our room and looking in.

**********

Aisha's POV

After Michael and Ocean fall asleep, I head downstairs to fix myself a drink. I know I shouldn't have and I do feel guilty peeping around their bedroom door watching them have sex like that, but it's like I can't help myself from watching them and the things Michael does to Ocean and imagining it's me he's doing those things with. I thought when me and him were together was the most amazing ever, but watching him with her shows just little he put into it with me. He puts in so much effort and passion with Ocean and she does with him. Sometimes to the point they both pass out through exhaustion.

I'm sitting at the kitchen table drinking some hot Coco and Michael walks in making me jump slightly "I thought you were asleep"

"nope. I just came down for some water. Then I'm going to sleep" he says in a neutral tone then turns his back and pours himself some water and I nod not saying anything. "did you enjoy the show?" He asks casually turning back to me and I look at him confused. "I saw you watching... A few times actually"

"I wasn't watching purposely.. I just um... I was just checking you guys were ok and..."

"no.. You were watching me make love to my wife" he cuts me off from my rabbling and trying to think of a good lie. "I'm sorry" I mumble feeling completely embarrassed. "Aisha, I'm with Ocean. we're married with a family and that's never gonna change and what happened with you and me won't happen again... ever. You know that right?" He asks softly and I nod "it's probably best we keep this between us. But we do understand each other right?"

"absaloutly" I smile through pursed lips and he smiles back the same way. "great. Well I'm gonna go to sleep now. Goodnight" he smiles and leave the room.

I was really surprised by Michael's reaction. When he said he knew I'd been watching him have sex, I thought he was about to flip out, but from his reaction he clearly enjoys being watched during sex. If he didn't then he would have got mad and told me to stop, but he didn't. In fact he said the complete opposite and asked if I enjoyed it too and that we have and understanding if we could keep it between us. Clearly he gets a thrill from me watching him in action.

**********

Micheal POV

I felt really awkard at first about bringing up that conversation with Aisha, but I'm glad I did and we squared things out. It made me really uncomfortable knowing that she was watching me be with Ocean like that, but I didn't stop because I didn't wanna cause any problems between her and Jermaine and risk us getting us kicked out. Also because there's no way I was gonna stop being with Ocean to go and speak to her. Hell if a meteor hit the house I still wouldn't stop untill I knew Ocean was 100% satisfied! I can't wait untill we find a new place and it will be just me Ocean and our kids again. Before all that stuff happened with Jessica and Mollie, we were all so happy and we had the perfect family life we always dreamed of and I can't wait to have that again. Even though I'm grateful for Jermaine letting us move back. It's still pretty awkward at times especially with what's happened in the past and how weird Aisha's been acting since we got here. Personally I would love to just pack up and move away today. But with a wife and three young kids it isn't that easy. Plus the last time Ocean and I just packed up and left. It didn't exactly go so well.

After talking to Aisha and clearing things up with her, I tiptoe into the guest room to check on the kids and smile watching all three of them sleeping contently then go back to bed.

I put the sheets over me and lay down and Ocean stirs slightly "did you go somewhere?" She mumbles sleepily putting her arm around me "I've been here by your side the whole time" I smile kissing her temple and hold her close to me. "just like I always have and always will"
