"I'm still trying to understand what this has to do with your absence"

"You have to agree that the dress is nice" Tristan replies

Dylan tosses a ball into the air before catching it, "He's an idiot"

"Shut up" He scoffs before looking back at me

I narrow my eyes, "So if I'm correct you missed practise because you were buying your girlfriend a dress-

"Not just a dress, dresses" Tristan clarifies

Dylan snorts, "You broke up with your girlfriend last week" I point out

He opens his mouth before closing it, "Yeah..... we got back together-

"How about I bench you tomorrow and we'll call it a day"

"It was worth a try" He mutters before sitting down

As a coach you have to know what each of your players are like. Tristan is one of my best players but his problem is that he's unserious, skipping practise is what he tends to do. I look through piles of paperwork as I sit back in my chair, "Could you guys do me a favour and-

"Pony ride!" We hear a giggle along with some footsteps

I frown as I lean back in my seat. Booker walks in with a little girl clinging to his arm, she's being held up.

He shrugs at me, "She was in the reception coach"

"By herself?-

"Hi daddy" Alaska reaches over to me and I take her

"Hi baby-.... Who dropped her?"

Booker shrugs as he leans on the door and I look back at my three year old, "Where's Thiago?"

She does nothing but wrap her arms around my neck and lie down, I sigh. Honestly I'd love nothing more than to sit down with Ally but I've got a lot of work to do and I'm not even half way done. I've got matches to organise and then a whole load of contracts to look over for my hotels, "Aww how sweet" Dylan says amused

I check the time, "Hi dad!" Thiago runs in with a bag of candy..... yes, candy.

As soon as I saw sugar I knew for a fact that I'd have a lot to deal with. "Who dropped you T?"

"Grandma"

Of course

"What's up lil T" Booker lifts up his hand and my son jumps to high five him

"Don't eat all of that candy-

"But Grandma said-

"I know, but too much sugar isn't good for you" I tell him

"You should listen to your dad" Dylan steals a gummy worm and my son frowns

I look back at my daughter, "I'm gonna put you down while I work ok?-

"Daddy no!-

"Ally-

She grips onto my shirt as tears pool her eyes and I mentally groan before getting up with her. Ally's a daddy's girl and sometimes it can be the sweetest thing ever, other days it can be the worst..... I'll never get anything done with her clinging to my side.

Tristan hands Thiago his phone, "Need any help coach?-

"Coach coach coach!" A group of boys from the team come stumbling into my office, Cole has two sheets of paper raised into the air.

"Where in Gods name is Aaron" I scoff

"Coach!-

"Now what?"

"Remember how you said we could use your beach house this summer" He reminds me

"Yeah what about it-

He lays down the papers, "Your mom recommended that we get you to sign a contract so you don't back out"

My daughter looks at the sheets curiously and I roll my eyes, "Typical Melissa" I mutter before picking up a pen

"Your the best-

"Dad I'm hungry!" Thiago announces

"Hungry!" Alaska repeats as I sign off on the letter

"They're hungry" Dylan echos

"Ok you know what" I look around at everyone

"One, two, three, four, five-.... With me" Alaska climbs onto my back as I pick up my car keys

"Where we going?" Anthony asks

"My house"

"Fuck yeah" Booker gets up with Thiago before following me

"What about us!" Leo calls out

"Keep an eye on the little ones until Aaron gets here" I call back

Booker, Anthony, Dylan, Cole and Tristan all follow me and my kids out of the sports centre. It's pretty clear that I can't get any work done without interruption so I'm trying something else, "Do you realise how great this is?" Tristan scoffs

"What?" Cole says confused

"We're going to his house..... that makes us favourites"

Thiago looks up, "Daddy-

"Your hungry I know"

"Do you think we'll see Carmen" Anthony murmurs

"My mommy's not at home" Thiago replies

"Hey coach how come Carmens not home" Dylan asks

I unlock the car, "She's on a trip so until then you guys are babysitting"

"Shotgun!" Tristan opens the door to the passenger side and I look back at Booker

"Do you have your car?"

He nods, "Yeah I'll go with Cole and Anthony"

Dylan helps Thiago and Alaska into their seats as I get into the front,

"Daddy, McDonald's" Alaska pleads

"Actually that's a good idea" Tristan chimes in

"You two are on a diet, you've got a game coming up" I point out

"We won't tell"

My phone chimes

I smile a little, even over text my wife can't help but add a sexual comment

"He's smiling, she definitely said something sexual"

I switch off my phone before starting the engine and Dylan leans forward in his seat, "What'd she say"

"Don't worry about it"

-

I frown as I skim my eyes over my laptop screen, Thiago passes by and I automatically grab whatever was in his hands. Then I look at what it was.... A box of lollipops, "Booker I told you not to give him anymore"

He walks in with a mouthful of toast before taking the box, "My bad"

My son pouts before going back into the living room and I sigh before continuing with my work. Truth is, I don't even know if coming back here was a better option.... It's noisy. I'm too scared to even look at the state of the kitchen, last time I checked Alaska was in there with Tristan. I'm not necessarily bothered with the state of the kitchen but I know Carmen and I know how much mess annoys her. "Coach we ran out of milk" Anthony informs me

"You don't have to call him coach, we're not at the sports centre" Tristan informs him before smiling down at my daughter

A nerf gun bullet suddenly flies past my head, "I'm coming for you T!" Cole calls out

Thiago laughs before running into the backyard and my eyes follow as he runs after my son, "Don't just leave the bullets on the floor-

Another one flies past and I roll my eyes, "I can never catch a break-

"What the hell happened to my house"

The room goes quiet and everyone looks back at the front door. Carmen frowns as she takes off her shades, she looks all boss like and dominant...I'll admit I was too afraid to speak first. But thankfully Alaska broke the silence, "Hi momma"

"Hi Carmen" Tristan says amused

"Tristan?" She says confused before looking at the rest of the boys, they all wave

"Mom!" Thiago rushes towards her before hugging her legs and she ruffles his hair

"Long story short, coach called us here" Booker tells her

She finally makes eye contact with me as I stand up, "And they're all here to....

"Watch the kids"

She nods slowly, "Right because you were...

"Working" I pick up her suitcase

"I see, working"

She then tucks her shades into her shirt, "Thiago how many times have I told you to stop leaving the nerf gun bullets on the floor"

"That was my fault, sorry about that" Cole apologises

"It's fine, T help him pick them up"

They both head into the living room and I narrow my eyes, "And Alaska you know what I've said about the bubbles"

She reaches her arms out but Carmen shakes her head, "That's not gonna work this time. Your gonna help Tristan wipe the mess"

Our daughter pouts as he puts her down, "Yes Ma'am" Tristan picks up a cloth

"The rest of you can clean my living room"

The rest of the boys all head into the living room and I stand there with a little shock. Now all of a sudden they wanna listen and clean up shit, before they were animals.

"And you" Carmen says as I head over to the stairs

I freeze, "Me?"

"Yes you, where's my hug"

I relax a little before fully turning around and lifting her up into one, Carmen kisses me as she wraps her arms around my neck. "How was your business trip"

"Not too bad, I'm just glad to be home"

I give her another kiss before setting her back down, "And so am I-.... Maybe it's time I showed you how much I've been missing you"

"Uh uh coach, your not off the hook"

I frown as she hands me a cloth, "My kitchen"

I sigh, "C-

Ally runs in before grabbing my hand, "Come on dada"

Carmen waves at me with a little smile before taking her suitcase, "I want my house clean within twenty!" She calls out as she heads up the stairs

"Yes ma'am" The boys reply

I scoff, "You guys are absolute suck ups"

-

You know I think the boys should start their own cleaning business because when I went back downstairs the house was exactly how I left it three days ago, I was impressed. Anyway they left after dinner since I'm back, it's night time now.

I turn off the taps before retying my robe, the door opens as I do so. "Goodnight mommy"

I kiss Thiago on the head, "Buenas noches"

He high-fives his dad before running out the room and I turn off the bathroom light before shutting the door. Carter still has his work glasses on and is going through paper work even though he's in bed, "Babe take a break"

"Hang on" He murmurs whilst keeping his eye on the page

He doesn't even glance up at me until I untie my robe, that's when he does a double take

"I said take a break" I repeat

Carters eyes skim over my body as his pen drops and I move his papers out the way before straddling him, I'm wearing his favourite lingerie set.

And it's red

"Shittt"

"Your so stiff" I start to massage his shoulders and he holds onto my waist

"Carmen-

His breath hitches as my lips hover over his neck, "You've been working all day" I murmur

"I have to-

"Haven't you"

Carter eventually nods and I start to suck on his neck, I feel him relax under my touch.

He's already hard and I haven't even done much, "So tense"

He stares at me with lust as I pull away and I slowly take off his glasses, "Just five minutes, this is due in the morning-

"I don't care, you've overworked yourself" I reply

He leans back against the headboard with defeat and I continue massaging his shoulders, "Your beautiful"

I smile before leaning in once more, "I know"

There's nothing I love more than a make out session. I've lived thirty two years and yet every single time he manages to kiss me better than the last time. Carter takes control of the kiss as I grind my hips against him, I then wrap my arms around his neck so that I can get a better taste.... My tongue is tired at this point.

"More"

Honestly I don't know where all this bossiness has come from but I know that Carters the one who likes to be in charge. Having enough of my neediness, he flips me over so that my back is lying against the bed. He then looks down at me darkly and I bite my bottom lip with excitement.... I want him to get mad.

"You've been bossy today" My husband notices

I slide my finger down his chest, "Remember July twenty third?"

Our wedding day

He narrows his eyes at me, "You fucked me until I couldn't move my legs anymore" I continue to trail my fingers down until I reach his sweats

Then I whisper, "But now you've lost your game-

"Are you trying to get in trouble?"

"It's the truth my love"

"Don't my love me"

"Your-

Carter flips me over so that my stomach is lying on top of the sheets and I scoff with surprise as he yanks off my panties, "You wanna take that back?"

"No" I challenge

"Bet"

And that was the exact moment that I realised I fucked up

**

"Mommy!" I hear a shout from outside the door

I groan into my pillow

I actually woke up an hour ago, however after I brushed my teeth -which I did sitting down- the soreness in my legs started to kick in and I sort of fell back onto the bed so I've resorted to giving up.....sometimes I don't know why I do this to myself.

"Where's mommy?"

"She's still sleeping, she'll come down soon"

I unbury my face from the pillow as the door opens and closes, "What does T want" I mumble

Carter sits at the edge of the bed, "Nothing he just wanted to know why your not awake yet"

I keep my arms underneath my pillow as I lie there, "Still sulking?"

"This is your fault"

"As I recall, your the one who was getting a little too cocky" He says amused

"You could've stopped after round two"

"I think three rounds was enough to teach you a lesson"

I don't reply and he lies down behind me before wrapping his arms around my waist, "I'll get you a hot water bottle" Carter murmurs before kissing me on the neck

I stay facing the nightstand whilst placing a hand on his cheek, "I think I'll be on bed rest for the whole day"

"Your dads coming over"

I look back before scoffing, "What? He can't"

"I can't tell him no-

"Your gonna have to"

He laughs, "Baby relax"

"No, he'll know instantly what happened after seeing me walk"

"Well I mean it's no secret that your sexually active.... We have kids"

I roll my eyes, "I'll take that hot water bottle now"

Carter looks down at me suspiciously, "Are you on your period?"

I shrug, "It's the fifteenth" He points out

"And?"

"You always get your period towards the middle of the month"

Now that I think about it, it kinda explains the bitchiness.... And the cramps -although I thought that was just because of last night-.

"Who cares, can you just hold me" I shuffle closer and he wraps his arms around me

"Carter"

"Yes?"

"Sorry"

"For what?" He says amused

"For being a bitch"

He kisses me on the head and I close my eyes, "It's ok"

I love you
