made beef kidney with mushrooms and onions in a mustard sauce largely using this recipe last week!

added some cayenne

used some fresh button mushrooms in addition to the dried porcini bc i didnt have that much

i ended up doubling the amount of the creme fraiche and mustard sauce

i used a spicy dijon but also ground up a mix of black and yellow whole mustard seeds roughly along with some colmans mustard powder to give it a bit more texture and flavor

i dont really drink much wine and didnt want to waste opening a whole bottle just for this so i used some cheapo cab sauv merlot blend that came in tiny not even full serving bottles in a pack. maybe not the most economic by volume but worth it for how i use wine. also tbh i ended up liking just drinking the rest of the bottle so thats good too lol expected it to be more shit from reviews but im no sommelier so all the better i can enjoy it w/o being discerning

took out all the fat from the kidney then let it sit in milk in the fridge for 2 days (was gonna do one but then couldnt cook that night) it was so funny it was pink when i took it out even tho i rinsed it well before then

then i did the blanching with vinegar water as described in this recipe but then i couldnt really do anythin with it for a while anyway so i then soaked it in water with vinegar in it for like an hour or so on the counter afterwards too like id seen in other recipes

was kinda nervous when i started cooking it bc i remembered a thing i read from some julia childs recipe where she said you should cook the kidney whole so that the liquids dont all come out and just steam it but i just didnt know how to compromise that with other recipes saying to take out all the fat bc kidney fat increases the piss flavor lol. so a Lot of liquid came out and it def steamed a bit but i wasnt able to really slow cook it either so im sure it couldve been more tender if i could possibly find a way to balance both those needs or did a more slow cooking recipe but honestly it was barely an issue it still was plenty good imo as someone whos never had kidney before. recipes were making me so worried when they all hated on beef kidney as compared to other types of kidney meats

on a similar note ppl said that beef kidneys were much stronger flavored than other kidneys maybe besides pig and a lot of similar recipes said they would avoid beef kidney so that got me a bit worried about flavor too. especially when i read in one recipe to not trust recipes that tell you to cook in the liquids of the kidney instead of taking out the kidney and wiping out the pan or just cooking everything beyond the meat separately until the end. but since a lot of the liquids disolved anyway and i tasted it and honestly it was fine i just trusted this recipe and i dont think the flavor was too strong or anything even though i didnt cook it separately

as for the potatoes i used this recipe

and i kinda wish i had gone with my gut and avoided putting in the onions and garlic right at the beginning

the potatoes were very nicely crispy but the onions and garlic got absolutely burnt to a crisp (was not a problem with my oven temperature! i have a second thermometer to check that)

if i did this again i’d put the onions like idk maybe halfway through and the garlic only right at the end

but yeah!!! it turned out good! excited to finally have used up all the organ meat i got on sale literally a year to almost a year and a half ago that i froze and then forgot about bc i got so busy and didnt have the time to figure out something fun to do with all of it. also i really like the creme fraiche i wanna use the leftover of it on stuff this week

Winters love (M)

Inspired by Neptunecw and Flightofbats tiktok 

Written while listening to the song below ♡

UA wasn't known for its cold wintery days, unlike other times of the year it was mostly sunny even if just a tad bit on the chilly side. The staff did its best to make sure the campus stayed pretty warm but ever since the villain attacks started up their central heating system had been on the fritz, some days it was blazing hot in the winter, and other days it was freezing cold. So they made sure all students knew to keep a jacket in their lockers just in case. However, some of the students continued to forget about their heating system issues, completely disregarding things as they sat in classes shivering, Ochako Uraraka being one of them.

Her foot tapped against the bar of the chair in front of her,  her skin covered in goosebumps as she tried desperately to pay attention to what Aizawa sensei was teaching them, but it proved to be harder than she imagined. Normally the cold wouldn't affect her as much but it had snowed the night before she knew Bakugou was most likely irritated with her constant tapping and she was thankful he hadn't turned around and yelled at her yet. Of course it was safe to say that he was passed out cold against his notebook so she was at least safe for a little while.

Halfway through their lesson Bakugou lifted his head, causing Uraraka to freeze completely as he turned around to look at her. "Pink cheeks stop shakin the damn chair I'm tryin to sleep here." She blinked as he looked her over for a moment before grunting with a roll of his eyes. He reached down into his back and pulled out a large black and orange hoodie,  tossing it over onto her desk. "Next time bring a jacket kay?" He grumbled as he turned back around to return to his nap, a yawn leaving his lips.

Uraraka stared at the jacket that laid over her work, eyes wide as she glanced around the classroom, Denki and Kirishima were both staring at her with wide eyes, making a gesture with their hands as if to tell her to just put it on and don't argue.  "T-thanks.." She whispered softly as she slipped her arms into the much too large hoodie that almost swallowed her whole, immediately being overwhelmed by the scent of Bakugou. Caramel and vanilla… it consumed her as she zipped the hoodie up and closed her eyes for a moment, trying to keep herself from floating off her seat from pure embarrassment.  

He had been fairly nice to her and it flustered her beyond her own beliefs,  sure she got flustered around Deku but that's just because it's Deku… Bakugou being nice to her was unheard of so it truly affected her in ways she really didn't want it to and for the rest of their lecture her mind was a misty place.

Once class was over she tapped Bakugou's shoulder, clearing her throat softly as he turned to face her, shaking his head. "Dont." He said quickly as he got up and nodded to Kirishima, yelling something about sparring in the training grounds, she watched as the two of them headed out of the classroom. "Woah what was that about?"  She looked over at Mina and shrugged, gathering her things as she stood, the hoodie coming to rest just above her knees. "I'm not sure… Bakugou being nice is strange, but I guess he didn't realize he woke up earlier and let me borrow this." Her hands smoothed over the front of the soft material.

"I don't know Ura… He's not one to just forget things he does half asleep." Mina laughed as she shook her head, draping her arm around Uraraka's shoulders. "But damn it does smell nice though doesn't it? I wonder what cologne he uses that smells this good." This pulled a chuckle from the rosy cheeked female, shaking her head softly. She knew it wasn't Cologne, she had been close enough to Bakugou during training to know that this was all him, and it really didn't bother her.  "I don't know, but I'll have to return it soon. Maybe I'll sneak into his room and leave it. But hey, you wanna go shopping?? I heard there are some sales going on at the mall!" Mina just grinned at the girl and grabbed her hand, pulling her out of the classroom, passing Bakugou and Kirishima who were standing just outside the classroom.

"So when are you gonna tell her?" The red headed male asked as he watched the two girls run down the hall. He turned to look at Bakugou, snorting as he waved his hand in front of the usually grumpy male. "Yo, earth to Katsuki, come on man stop staring you're gonna burn your notes again."  This snapped Bakugou back out of his trance, dropping the smouldering notebook in the process. "Shit! Damn it i gotta stop doing that!" He groaned, stomping on the notebook to smother the fire that had started around the edges of the cover. "I don't know shitty hair, maybe I'll never tell her. I don't want to distract her from hero training.."

"Or do you not want to get rejected? Come on dude it's obvious she likes you! And you have to admit… She does look fine as hell wearing your hoodie." Kirishima nudged Bakugou's shoulder, his words resulted in a solid punch to the jaw. "Shut the hell up, don't talk like that about her." He knew Kirishima was right but what the hell was he thinking? Talking about her like that especially in front of everyone. "Lets just go spar. I need to get my head out of the clouds, i couldnt sleep last night because stupid Deku and Denki were watching movies all night in Deku's room. God, I wish they would just have a regular sleep schedule like everyone else." He rolled his eyes, stuffing his hands into his pockets as he made his way towards the exit.

One month had passed since He had lent his jacket out to Uraraka, and they hadn't seen much of each other since she was deep into her work study at this point so he hadn't had the chance to ask her about getting his hoodie back. However, the students who had work studies had been given a few days off so he figured now was a better time than any. As he walked into the door he looked around, spotting a tuft of red hair disappearing into the kitchen. "Hey, shitty hair, you seen pink cheeks?" He called out, Kirishima poked his head around the corner and nodded, pointing over to the stairs. "Her room." Bakugou nodded and headed up the stairs, taking two at a time as usual.

Heading down the hall he noticed her door was cracked slightly, he took a deep breath as he stood there in front of it for a moment before lifting his hand to knock, the door swinging open slightly. "Hey pink cheeks, do you still have my jacket-?" His words faltered as he saw her curled up in the little loveseat seat she had placed in the corner of her room, dressed in a pair of sleep shorts and his hoodie. Fuck, she was so cute. How could someone who was so smart and loud at the same time be so fucking beautiful even after going through hell. He bit his lip as he slipped inside, closing the door behind him as a small smile graced his lips. He quietly made his way over to her and lifted her into his arms, a sigh leaving him as he moved her over to her bed. "You shouldn't sleep like that, you'll get back problems…" he whispered, more to himself than to her since he knew she wouldn't hear him anyway.

As he went to cover her up so he could leave her to sleep a hand wrapped around his wrist, sleepy eyes peering up at him while he leaned over her. "Katsuki?.." Fuck, he had woken her up. His jaw went slack as he tried to find something to say, which he couldn't at the moment, because the look in her eyes was something he wasn't used to seeing directed towards him. "I'm sorry, I meant to return it… i just got so busy." She spoke softly, sitting up in bed as she held onto his wrist, her free hand rubbing at her eyes and once she looked up at him again she froze. Their noses just barely touching as they looked back at one another.

For a few moments the two of them just sat there, staring into each other's eyes before Bakugou made the first move. He closed the space between their lips, kissing her gently as he reached out to cup her cheek, thumb stroking over her rosy cheeks. Her eyes widening as she was slowly pushed back onto her bed, Bakugou moving to hover over her as their lips parted. "K-Katsuki… What are you doing?" Her words were breathless, and he knew she hadn't expected to be kissed, he just couldn't help it when she had that look in her eyes. His thumb traced over her bottom lip as he sighed heavily. "Sorry…"

As he moved to get off the bed she reached out and pulled him back down, this time wrapping her legs around his waist as she kissed him, her fingers tangling into his messy blonde locks. She had been waiting for so long to take this type of chance with him and she had never even dreamed that he would be the one to make the first move. He was always so aggravated with everyone, and after everything that had happened she was afraid he had closed himself off completely. The kiss had proved her wrong and she was going to take that leap of faith and she wasn't going to look back.

Bakugou tilted his head into the kiss, shifting around slightly so he could move into a position where he wouldn't crush her with his weight,  his heart was pounding and the amount of adrenaline running through him was starting to cause him to sweat. A small groan left his throat when she bit down on his bottom lip, the slight pain pulling him back to the real world for a minute. He pulled back and stared down at her, licking his lips. "Okay, one.. the door isn't locked. And two.. how long?" He asked, knowing that she knew exactly what he meant by how long. He watched the rosiness of her cheeks spread to her ears. As she looked away shyly. "Since the training camp."

She pushed at his shoulders, pushing him towards the headboard so she could get up and move to lock her door. When she turned back to face him she smiled softly, flicking the lights off so they were only bathed in the light of the evening sun. "Doors locked now…" A smirk formed on the blonde's lips as he watched her saunter back over, his hands reaching out to rest on her hips while she crawled onto his lap, their lips coming together in another kiss that was filled with so much desire that it sent shivers down his spine. As her fingers ran down his chest he slowly slipped his hands down the back of her shorts, grabbing two handfuls of those luscious globes that always had him so distracted when she fought.

A moan left Uraraka's lips, her head tipping back as she tugged at his hair gently. The lips that were occupying her own now traced down along the expanse of her throat, the hands on her hips guided her to grind down against him. Her eyes widened as she left his erection pressing up against her, nails digging into his scalp when he bit down on her shoulder after leaving a dark hickey to blossom on her pale skin. She quickly unbuttoned his shirt so she could push it off his shoulders and toss it on the floor. Her hips lifted slightly so she could scoot back, leaning down to leave a trail of kisses down the center of his chest. His eyes never left hers as she slowly pulled his sweats down, nearly drooling as she took his cock into her mouth.

There was a knock on the door as his cock hit the back of her throat, his eyes widened as his hand gripped her hair tight, a finger lifted to his lips to keep her quiet. "I don't care who it is but go away!" He yelled, picking up the nearest thing, being a book so he could chuck it at the door. There was a squeak from the other side before he heard footsteps retreat. He looked back down at Uraraka who had his cock deep into the back of her throat, a look in her eyes that told him he needed to prepare himself. Which he wasn't able to do quick enough as she swallowed around his length, "holy fuck a-ahh." His head thunked back against the headboard as she pulled off of him slowly.

"Mmh.. Katsuki~" Uraraka licked a slow stripe against the underside of his length, watching his eyes nearly roll back just from the feeling. "Please.. I want you to be my first." She whispered, placing a gentle kiss to the head of his length. He nodded and shifted, watching her as she wiggled out of her shorts, tossing them somewhere in the room. She turned so she was on her hands and knees, then as Bakugou positioned himself behind her her chest dropped down against the sheets, her back arching to show him the damp spot that had formed on her panties.  

Oh gods he was going to love tearing that ass up, he had dreamed about this moment for so many nights and now the one thing he had lusted after for so long was right in front of him. "Gods your ass is amazing Ochako.." He whispered as he spread her cheeks, thumb dipping under the hem of her panties to pull them aside. If he didn't have as much self control as he normally did he would be drooling, she was barren, no hair in sight and just the most delicious shade of pink. He moved forwards on his knees, one hand moving to press against the curve of her spine as he pressed into her and as that deliciously tight heat wrapped around his cock he knew that was it. This girl was going to be his, from this moment on she belonged to him and he belonged to her, if anyone tried to hurt her he would kill them.

"You're mine, you got that Pink cheeks?" He grunted out as he snapped his hips forward, penetrating deep within her core, the head bottoming out against her cervix. He only gained a nod in return, but as he rolled his hips in a teasingly slow manner she got the hint. "Y-Yes Katsuki~" She mewled as the feeling of him deep inside, hips pressing back against his as a hard slap resonated around them, her ass stinging as she let out a lewd moan. "That's a good girl~" he had purred, he fucking purred. His words dripped sex and his hands simmered against her skin as they fell into a passionate push and pull of want, need and hunger.

The air between them would never be the same after tonight and he knew he was never getting his hoodie back, not that he even wanted it back in the first place. It looked too good on her, hell maybe he would give her some more of his clothes for her to wear when it was just the two of them. Though the inevitable chaos in the morning barely graced his mind as his eyes held steady on the sweet jiggle of her ass as he pounded her into the mattress, bed knocking against the wall without a care as they lost themselves in each other's bliss.

The Results... || JElla

Tagging: Ella Jameson & James Harrington When: 6/16/17 Where: The doctor’s office Notes:

James-06/16/2017

"Baby?" James called from the shower, eyes closed while his hands were in his hair. There was soap on his face and he couldn't see anything. "El," he called out once more. They were at his house and he finished packing his entire garage and needed a shower due to how sweaty and greasy he got. He didn't know if Ella was taking a nap somewhere or on the phone. He didn't move for a couple seconds before resuming his shower.

Ella-06/16/2017

Ella was sitting on the floor in the living room, legs crossed as she sorted through some of James belongings. Rocky sat next to her, dozing in and out. God it seemed like the packing would never end. She heard J's faint call for her and yelled back, not getting up, "What?"June 17, 2017

James-06/17/2017

James turned the water off and pulled a towel from the hook next to the shower. "Aren't you supposed to hear back about the results today?" They'd been busy with packing that he couldn't remember if this was the day or sometime next week. The towel went to his face and then his body, patting everything dry while water dripped from the ends of his long hair.

Ella-06/17/2017

"Today or tomorrow they said. Don't worry I  have my phone next to me." Ella could hardly think about it without having her stomach knot up. A matter of fact she could hardly sleep the night before wondering what the results would be.

James-06/17/2017

James wrapped the towel around his waist and went down the hallway, stopping short when he reached the living room. She was in the midst of all of his shit and he looked down at a photo album and bent down to pick it up. "I hope it's today. That way we can know for certain and move on. Not that it changes anything." It was more for peace of mind than anything. James opened the cover and and saw his baby picture. He hadn't seen this since he moved into this house.

Ella-06/17/2017

Ella looked up at hearing james and couldnt help but check out his half naked body. She nodded, "Yeah, the sooner the better would be great." she agreed, stopping the packing and peeking into the book James was looking at. A helpless smile crossed her face, "You were a beautiful baby." she commented.

James-06/17/2017

"You took a look at this?" He asked, flipping through the next few pages while he halfway took in the pictures. He'd seen them all before. There were picture of him as a toddler and playing with a neighbor kid in a small swimming pool. There were pictures of him missing teeth and grinning wide. Others where he had his first puppy, before it was given away.

Ella-06/17/2017

She shook her head,"No only just now. You were so cute." A pang of anxiety hit her as she stopped herself from asking if she thought their babies would look like him. "I've been so in the zone of getting everything in boxes. The movers will be here wednesday and I know we need to have all the small stuff ready to go. "June 18, 2017

James-06/18/2017

"What do you mean 'were'? I like to think my cuteness carried over into my adulthood." He moved to lower the album to show El more pictures. "I think my high school prom picture is in this one," he said as he turned more pages, hearing the noise of the plastic crinkle with each flip. Towards the back he found a few pictures of him as a teenager. There were some of friends he hadn't talked in a long time. There were others with buddies he saw at the bar. He kept going until he found the picture of him in a white tux and baby blue bow tie. He stood by himself, sporting something which closely resembled a mullet and a bigger than life grin. "Guess you can say this is blackmail material if you ever need it." he laughed.

Ella-06/18/2017

"Yes baby of course it did." Ella laughed, too hard actually as the babies started moving and leaning on her sciatica. She held on to her side as she continued laughing, "Oh my God! J! Okay tell me the truth, did you get laid that night?"

James-06/18/2017

James laughed with her. He knew then he needed a haircut and never got around to it. "Isn't there a saying that goes, what happens on pr-" James was laughing again and unable to finish that sentence. "Oh man," he closed the album and set it on the surface of a box, "Maybe I did. Once I lost the jacket and bow tie I looked good. Especially when I showed my dance moves," he took her hand and kissed at her knuckles. "I'd give a demonstration but only if you feel like being swept off your feet."June 19, 2017

Ella-06/19/2017

"You don't remember? How wild were you!?" Ella laughed, her brows raising. She watched him take her hand, "I bet you had all the ladies and not just because of your dance moves or cute face but because you're smooth as hell."  She nodded to her belly, that was  exposed as she wore James button down  opened over a black bralette and a pair of his black boxer briefs, "you wanna dance with this?"

James-06/19/2017

"The night is a complete blur. There was a lot of alcohol and my friends got a couple hotel rooms. I know I had a good time." He shrugged and smiled. "There were a couple girls who'd been after me all year and I remember hanging out with them," Did he hook up with both of them? He remembered kissing them, the girls more than happy to share him. God, he lived quite the life at eighteen. "I think we're both dressed appropriately for a dance. You in my clothes and me in a towel. Or am I overdressed?" He hooked a thumb at his towel and pretended he was about to drop it.

Ella-06/19/2017

Ella shook her head smiling, "You player! I went with Bradway Archibald - my high school steady. We had a blast. We were prom king and Queen." She recalled fondly. Ella smiled up at him, knowing it would be a sight for sore eyes to see him naked. I could always do--- this!" She gave the towel a yank so it pooled on the floor. She wiggled her eye brows, "well helloooo there!"

James-06/19/2017

"What type of name is Bradway? Was he a part of those fancy families that go to expensive restaurants and eat dinner off gold plates?" James teased her with a grin and before he could do or say anything else, the towel was gone and he stood completely nude in his living room. If she wasn't pregnant he'd have scooped her over his shoulder and taken her to the bedroom but all he could do now was look down at himself and consider playfully making himself move as a means of saying hello back. He didn't buy the idea amused him. "Just know it's saying hi," he laughed and went to pull her in close.

Ella-06/19/2017

"It's a handsome name!" Ella defended. "He was so sweet and I was so awful to him ." She recalled how she had dumped him to spread her wings in college and left him broken hearted. Ella smirked,"I'm sure he is, he's always very polite to me." Ella held on to his arms and kissed at his warm bare chest. "You should get dressed and then help me get this packed up. Maybe we'll find more pictures of you for me to blackmail you with.." she thought better of it, "or not get dressed but still help me pack." Ella giggled. She would have offered to show her embarrassing pictures but she had paid movers to box and move out her entire town home. Most of all their furniture was being sold or stored away as Ella wanted new furniture that would fit the house perfectly.

James-06/19/2017

"I'd that's what you consider handsome then I'm glad I came along when I did or the babies would have wound up with some weird name. The type that are guaranteed to get picked on in school," he said. "Now James? That's a strong name. The type of name you know will go along with a good looking guy. Like me," he stepped away from her, but before doing so he nipped her neck. "I better put pants on at least. Don't want to risk injury. That'd be terrible for the both of us."

Ella-06/19/2017

"heyyy!" Ella frowned giving James a little shove. " He was a good boy!"  She shook her head, an adoring grin on her face," Hoo boy, listen to this. But I cant disagree..." Ella cupped his package before he pulled away, "Yeah I have scissors. Good call." She watched him walk down the hall shamelessly checking him out.

James-06/19/2017

"Are you sure you're over him? I can look him up on Facebook and see what he's up to. Maybe he's still pining away for you?" James' felt her hand on him and he wanted to encourage more but the mention of scissors set him on the path to the bedroom. "Up for going on a walk with me and Rock? He needs one," James called out as he pulled a clean pair of boxers on.

Ella-06/19/2017

"Oh I'm sure I've very desirable to him right now. Uptight lawyer, expecting twins. Sorry, you're stuck with me." She called to him. Ella frowned, "A walk? That means I have to get dressed like a human." she whined.June 20, 2017

James-06/20/2017

"You're not as uptight as you think. Not when I'm around." James entered the room wearing jeans and a plain white shirt, hair damp and loose from his shower. "Come on, El. It'll just be around the block," he lowered and placed his arms around his dog, "and how can say no to this face?" James placed his cheek against Rocky's and raised it so they were both looking at her; James with a pitiful expression.

Ella-06/20/2017

At seeing their faces Ella let out an exasperated sigh,"Alright. I'll go change." She grumbled. She headed back to go find some real clothes. "We shouldn't put off packing," she called back over her shoulder,"it's never going to ---" Ella was interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She froze and then slowly turned looking back at J. "Oh my god. Is it them?" She flew back down the hall and started at her phone on the coffee table. The number wasn't recognized which she figured was a good sign it could be the lab. "Should-- should I answer?" Suddenly it occurred to Ella that if she knew for sure and it wasn't what they hoped for, her dreams of having them be J's biologically were dashed officially.

James-06/20/2017

James gave Rock's side a good couple pats and he went to grab his dog's leash. As he heard the phone ring Ella hurried past him and James went into the kitchen with her. His stomach was in sudden knots and as much as he braced himself for this moment, he could still feel those nerves. "You should," the leash wrapped around his hand a few times and he got close to her. Ready for whatever may come.

Ella-06/20/2017

Ella grabbed her cell phone and answered. She had specifically asked them to call her instead of waiting for the results via mail. Quickly she put the call on speaker phone so James could hear everything too. They listened to the  blood specialist on the other side of the phone confirm that James was the biological father. The call was quick and deliberate and Ellas hand shot over her mouth as the woman on the other spoke. Her knees felt weak and her whole body seemed to be vibrating in  emotion. With a small thank you Ella hung up and looked at James bursting into tears

James-06/20/2017

James prayed the babies were his. He knew in his heart he'd love them as if they were his blood, but the confirmation felt like someone pumped him full of joy because he felt the biggest smile form and he didn't think he would ever stop. His eyes swam with tears of his own as he went to pull her to his chest. James' damp lips pressed against her forehead and hair, feeling like the luckiest man at that very moment.

Ella-06/20/2017

Ella  cried happy relived tears against his chest unable to speak at the moment. It felt like the biggest weight was lifted off of her. Her kids would grow up with their actual father; the one who deserved them.

James-06/20/2017

James continued to kiss her, hands cupped Ella's cheeks and he brought theirs lips together; able to feel the wetness her tears left behind. "I knew they were ours. I knew it," he kissed her once more and pressed his forehead to hers. Their noses bumped momentarily and he let out a deep sigh; the kind that one released after they endured such a hard situation and they finally were granted a sense of relief.

Ella-06/20/2017

"I'm so happy." Ella cried. "For the first time this while pregnancy I feel okay." Her hand went to the top of her belly and she rubbed it affectionately. "They're  ours, j. We made them." In that truth,  the hold that Peter had on her didn't seem so strong; she felt braver.

James-06/20/2017

They did. Something that they were completely careless with turned into such an important moment in their lives and James continued to feel wetness along his lashes. This was a relief for them, that they could no move forward and know for certain that Peter will be completely in the past soon. That there would be nothing to tie to him and that gave James a tremendous sense of comfort. He moved from her and got down to his knees, placing his hands on either sides of Ella's stomach and saying, "You hear that guys. I'm your dad," he looked up at her and leaned forward to press a couple kisses there.

Ella-06/20/2017

Ella's heart swelled with happiness, no admission had ever sounded better. She ran her hand through his hair, smiling down at him adoringly. No matter what had been said on that call Ella would have claimed James as their father but now, knowing they were in every way his, made her smile harder then ever.

James-06/20/2017

James kissed her stomach again and pressed his cheek to it as he wrapped his arms around her as best as he could to hug. "I'm glad this call came after I got dressed. I'd had to tell this story and have me naked." he laughed and added, "Not that I can imagine us retelling this to anyone but, well, you get what I'm trying to say," he let go and moved to get to his feet, taking her hand and bringing El with him to the living room. Rocky followed them into it but he kept going until he found his bed in the corner of the room. His walk was long forgotten. "Lets take a break from packing. I want to enjoy this a little longer."June 21, 2017

Ella-06/21/2017

"You don't think it would have been more special with your penis out?" Ella laughed, still threading her fingers into his blonde locks. It was true, Ella wasn't sure who she'd ever share this story with; maybe her sister some day, maybe her best friend down the line but for now it stayed close to the chest. When he stood, she followed him into the living room, giving a nod,"definitely. This deserves to be celebrated."

James-06/21/2017

"My penis has gotten enough attention when we bought the house. Can't let the guy be involved in too much or he'll get a big ego," James sat down and pulled Ella to come sit on his lap but then second guessed it and lured her to sit next to him. "I imagine being on my lap wouldn't be the most comfortable place for you."

Ella-06/21/2017

Ella didn't think he could ever have too much attention but she digressed.  He was right about his lap because her belly made it a little hard so she snuggled up next to him, her stomach  resting atop his his. She draped her arm over him, loving the feel of him being close.  The babies were stirring and she could feel them bounce around inside of her; it was as if they were celebrating too.

James-06/21/2017

When she got close James decided to lean into her a little more before resting his chin on top of her head. He was smiling. He'd been smiling since the results came in, and he wished he took a picture or video or something to remember this moment. But it was tucked away in his mind to recall at random moments. His hand went to her stomach and he felt the action happening underneath his palm and against his stomach. "They're having a blast in there." he laughed. "Think they're playing? Tell you the truth I don't know if they can in there."

Ella-06/21/2017

"I hope they're playing and not like, battling or something." She laughed. "They probably can for now but once they get a little bigger they'll be too squished." She watched her stomach and saw the little waves and bumps of her skin from them pressing against her.

James-06/21/2017

"If they're battling then we have one hell of a challenge coming our way. Can you imagine the yelling and fights?" He laughed but he knew there was the possibility and sighed, "I hope we have chill kids. I don't want to be that dad who's hard on them," his hand went along her stomach, trying to figure out what was happening in there.

Ella-06/21/2017

"I mean I'm sure they'll fight but hopefully not more times then they'll be sweet to each other." Ella looked down hopeful at her stomach. "Can you imagine the terrible twos times two?" She laughed. "God, J, what did we get ourselves into?"June 22, 2017

James-06/22/2017

"Fuck," his hand went through his hair and James scratched the back of his head. "Everything. Times two. Think we have it in us to handle this?" Not like they had a choice because they will get through it but Jesus. "Once again my cock is in the spotlight for this one. Getting us into this little pickle."

Ella-06/22/2017

"Well, whether we do or not- they're coming." Ella said with an exasperated look on her face. "Yeah well who knew you were going to shoot off twins into me. He needs to be tamed."  Her hand ran over his lap.

James-06/22/2017

"I sure as hell didn't. I'm glad it stopped at twins and not triplets but there's no guarantee we're out of the woods yet. Never know if my swimmers will try to one up things and get us with even more kids. Then I'm pretty sure you'll kill me." His eyes went down to her hand and he smirked, "Careful, El..." his gaze returned to her and winked. "Might give him ideas."(edited)

Ella-06/22/2017

"Jesus! Yes, I will absolutely kill you - or at the very least cut that power dick of yours off and bronze it so we know it can't have any more children!" She shuttered, "It would be sad because it's definitely been the best one to me but, I can't have 50 kids all the same age." Ella directed her attention to his crotch," You hear that? That's a promise." She laughed as she pinched his shaft.

James-06/22/2017

Oh god the laughter which poured out of him was so hearty and loud that he almost missed out on the 50 kids comment. "I'll get things fixed in my area before that eve-" and the he made an unexpected noise when she pinched him and he placed his hand on her wrist and pulled Ella close for a kiss: still feeling a type of tingle where her fingers were. There was some pain but he was too amused to think a lot about it.

Ella-06/22/2017

"You laugh because you think I'm kidding, but I assure you - I am not!" She laughed with him, nuzzling her nose against his when he pulled her close. She closed the distance between their mouths, her hand going up to cup his face as she placed a firm kiss against his soft lips.

James-06/22/2017

"I know you're kidding because you will miss it too much. I can only satisfy you so much with my mouth before you want more of me. The part they requires to stay attached to my body," James kissed her back, but it was too swift for his liking so he put his hand on the back of her head and went in for another.

Ella-06/22/2017

"Will I? Will I miss it if you've impregnated me with 50 children, J?" Ella still giggled.  Fuck she knew he was right and she didnt fight against another kiss.June 23, 2017

James-06/23/2017

"I know you will." His hand went to her thigh while they kissed and James had to say, "I bet even with fifty kids you'll still have a smoking hot body," he wanted to bring her to his lap but he had to keep with having her next to him.

Ella-06/23/2017

"Just to clarify, we are not having fifty kids." Ella smiled against his mouth. "But thank you, baby. As long as you think I'm hot that's all that matters to me." Ella knew even pregnant she looked good with her tan, smooth skin and perfectly round,  albeit large, breasts and baby bump but it had still been hard for her to accept her changing body a little.

James-06/23/2017

"I don't think I can handle that many in the first place. Maybe five at most. But even then I think it's pushing it." James hand went across those very smooth tanned legs and he leaned over to kiss her collarbone. "Want to go out and celebrate the good news?"

Ella-06/23/2017

"Let's just get used to two first shall we? If they don't kill us, we can talk." It was funny to Ella to even hear herself talk like that. She had never seen herself with babies really but being pregnant and with J had really softened her to the idea of a bigger family. "I do, definitely. Maybe we can dress up and get all fancy?"

James-06/23/2017

"Okay. Hear me out. How about we do away with fancy and go get ribs? The saucy-" he raised his hands to speak with them, "type that are practically falling off the bone," he'd been craving them and he'd never seen her eat something like that before.

Ella-06/23/2017

Ella pulled back and made a face. "I don't eat meat with bones in it and plus they're so messy."

James-06/23/2017

There went his idea and he sighed, "The messy part is what makes it better," he said and he knew that there was a buttoned up shirt in his immediate future.   "What are you feeling?"

Ella-06/23/2017

She made a face,"Um, maybe another time..I could go for some good Italian. Like chicken parm with linguini and some warm garlic bread -  not  sticks, bread. Can you find us a place with bread?"June 24, 2017

James-06/24/2017

"Love how specific you are about this. Don't like Olive Garden's breadsticks?" He nuzzled his bearded face into her neck while his hand smoothed down her thigh. "I know an Italian restaurant that should give you what you're after," his lips brushed her skin as he talked.

Ella-06/24/2017

Ella thought about it, "I've never been to an Olive Garden.  But, the babies want bread not breadsticks so we need to give them what they want!" Ella squirmed as his beard scratched her skin, "you know it's getting  too long right?  I meant to tell you last night that you need to trim it; I think I have beard burn on my vagina." Focusing back on the food, Ella brightened, "do you? Awesome, lets check it out then."

James-06/24/2017

James pulled from her and brought his hand to the beard. "It has?" His hand smoothed down it, stopping some inches past his chin and he stroked it a couple times. "If I had know it was chaffing your skin I would have shaved the whole thing off," He looked at her, "If a trim is enough then I'll get right on it. A full shave may require me to mourn a little before it happens." He dropped his hand and got to his feet, helping her up. "You might need to put pants on."

Ella-06/24/2017

"No no, don't shave the whole thing! I like your beard. And okay, the chaffing wasn't all terrible." Ella smirked. "But yea a little trim would be sexy." She took his outstretched hand," I think I'll wear a dress; try and look cute."

James-06/24/2017

"What's this try shit? You are cute," he paused, "Not exactly the type of word I choose to describe you because I think smoking and sexy are better adjectives but cute works, too." He stepped back and a box bumped against his leg. "I'll work on the beard while you get ready. I may decide to pull over somewhere and have a little dessert if I get a craving of my own."

Ella-06/24/2017

Ella loved his flirty nature and the way he found her sexy even when she didn't feel it. His pulling over comment Ella snorted in laughter and gave a roll of her eyes "oh my god, j! You can at least wait till we get home." She looked back over her shoulder,"And I won't even wear any underwear."

James-06/24/2017

Before he went to the bathroom, James paused and looked at her. "So you want me to wait but you won't wear panties? Something tells me you're not practicing patience either." He went back to her and brought his arms around her body. This was a lot easier before the twins came along but he managed to get what he was after; squeezing her ass and going in for one of those kisses that told her that he was going to make her feel fucking fantastic later. "You better hurry. I don't want to make a sudden restaurant change because they decided they want Indian food or something." He was looking forward to pizza or pasta now. Something with a lot of tomato sauce.
