Dale
“You were right, right now I’d like to summon Troy back to life just to beat him to death.” She said angrily as we reached the car.
She introduced me to Troy’s sister, her arm was in a cast. But what I found out later was making me agree with Amanda, his death was way too fucking easy.
“He was even sexually abusing her Dale! Since their parents passed away since he became her guardian. How could a person do such horrible things.”
“Hey… baby, look at me… he’s gone now. She’s getting help, she has you, I’ll help in any way I can. She will be just fine.” I said caressing her knuckles as I continue to drive back home. She relaxed back to her seat, but keep her hold on my hand for a little while longer.

“Let’s do it. Tomorrow, you can call Aiden and get all the paperwork ready. We can skip the diamond and get right into the wedding ring. We’re doing this at the town hall, it’s our second wedding for both of us…” she suddenly said and looked at me, when we were resting snuggling closer to each other just before bed.
“… I’m done with arranging venues and caterers and all the rest. We’ll just book a place for the family dinner, maybe at Barney’s I’m sure Lisa would love to help out…” she was still talking when I get on top of her and shut her mouth with my kisses.
She started to giggle saying that she needs to talk some more, but in my mind, all I hear was town hall tomorrow and thinking that I need to get a set of wedding rings for us.
“Stop giggling baby, I want to celebrate this epiphany of yours.” But I was smiling like a mad man myself. I was beyond happy that she decided to marry me soonest. I couldn’t wait any longer, I need her to be by my side always.

“Aunt Amanda! Why can’t you come to our Adventure jar day?” Mable was pouting on her chair, clearly upset that Amanda had to leave us that day.
“Can I?” She was asking my permission to share Mable the news of us getting married next Friday. I kissed her cheek and nudge her to the little princess, and let her break the news to Mable.
The day after her epiphany, we found out that arranging a marriage in the town hall would take a couple of days. Then Aiden told me that she still needs to sign off on some documents regarding Troy’s will. But finally, the date was set we were having it next Friday, and the family dinner on that same day.
“Mable honey… I promise you that I will join your adventure jar day next week, and every week after that… would you like that? Would you like me to stay here forever with both of you?” She was saying it softly, while she caresses her hair lovingly.
“Yeah? Forever? Will you be my mommy then?” She was giving her toothy grin.
“Well your dad had asked me to marry him, so… if you want to call me your mommy, I will be very happy. But if…” she didn’t get to finish her words as Mable jumped off her chair and hugged her tightly.
“Thank you, daddy! Thank you for giving me, mommy!” Amanda was teary already, then I join in their excitement and gave them a group hug.
“Now then, how about this… how about I leave for aunt Jess earlier so that I could join both of you later for some afternoon ice cream at Barney’s?” Amanda was pouring her kisses to Mable and hugging her over and over again, making her giggle in excitement.
“Yes! Yes! Okay! Bad Mommy! Daddy, please help meeeee!!!” She was giggling while trying to run away from Amanda. I let her have all the fun, as I sat down the on the couch and look at both of them in content. Up until Mable climb up to my knees, and hide behind my back.
Then all three of us scattered on the floor in seconds laughing, while trying not to get tickled.
We finally managed to leave the apartment an hour later, we drop Amanda off at Jessica’s then we were off to the aquarium.
“Daddy?”
“Yes, kiddo?”
“If Amanda is my new mommy, will my real mommy be upset?” she asked all of a sudden.
“Come, let us rest and watch some penguins.” I got her orange juice while we relax at the penguin exhibit. The day was a bit hot, she sat beside me while we watch the penguins swim in their aquarium pond.
“Ava, your real mommy will always be your mommy. But now you have another mommy, you can love them both. We have so much love to give.” I caressed her hair and continue on talking.
“Just like how I loved Ava, then you came along. I didn’t stop loving her though she’s not here, but I start loving you. And now I love Amanda too.” I tried to explain it as best as I could.
“See there… do you see how many penguins one handler feed and caresses? that is also love. And he’s showing all the penguins equal affections and some maybe more…” I was about to explain some more when she gives me her hug.
“I love you more daddy…”
“I love you more too my princess.”
We sit back and watch the penguins some more, then I told her it was ice cream time with Amanda. She was grinning from ear to ear and quickly got up to her feet. She pushed me to walk faster while I tease with her and walk extra slow… obviously too slow for her liking.

“Mommy! I missed you! Come on let’s get inside…” Mable ran to Amanda as she saw her waiting in front of Barney’s.
“Hey, baby…” I kissed her cheek and sneakily squeeze her ass, making her slap my arm but I could see that she was liking the attention.
We were sitting down when Mable start blurting out about our visit to the aquarium. Amanda was ordering us the ice cream while listening and commenting on her day. It had never been this perfect.
My simple Sunday afternoon with the two love of my life.
“Dale?”
“Daddy! You said we’re like penguins but you didn’t even hear me when I’m talking.” She crossed her arms to her chest and pout at me.
“I love you kiddo… always, sorry but I was actually thinking about us. About how perfect today has been, about how I love both of you so so much.” I said as I kissed Mable and caressed Amanda’s cheek lovingly, making her smile at me.
“Really daddy? Soooo… if you do love me so so much, you would let me get a pet lizard? Aunt Lisa has baby lizards from her pet bearded dragon named Barney. Yes, daddy! the same name as the restaurant!! And she said I could have one if I promise that I’ll feed and clean his cage…” she was still rambling when I put her on my lap.
“Kiddo, let’s do some research about this so-called bearded dragon when we get home okay, I’ll show you the disgusting worms that are included in their diet. Then… then we will see if you still want one okay?”
Amanda was shaking her head at us, but runs her hand to Mable’s strand of hair and tidying it to the back of her ear.
We were finally stuffed with ice cream when we eventually decide that it was time for us to go back home.
“How’s Jessica today?” I asked her after Mable was tucked in for bed.
“She’s getting better, we talked a lot. She’s a really nice girl. I hope someday she’ll find her prince charming.”
“You mean like me?” I pulled her on top of me abruptly.
“Dale! My prince!” she pretends to gasp, making me laugh at her. I pulled her down and give her my deep sensual kiss.
“I love you, Amanda.”
“And I love you… my Prince charming.”
