Chapter One
Harry and Jake and the kids spent the week getting ready for their weddings. They went to the Jewelry Exchange first and picked out rings. All the kids went with them, no one wanted to be left out of the celebrations and they were in such a happy mood they let everyone come, even the annoying little girls, Violet, Tammy and Amy who were now sixteen and Susie who was fifteen. They all gushed about how happy they were but everyone knew that Violet had had a hissy fit of major proportions when she had found out her precious Harry was pregnant and getting married.
She and Billy had been playing around in his bedroom, having spent the night together and she made him bring her breakfast in bed. Normally he wouldn’t do that, especially since she had such small breasts and he was into large ones, but she also had an incredible mouth and knew how to use it. So he got up and fixed her a nice breakfast and they were eating it when the wedding bells had sounded and she had jumped up to read his email.
“That’s private mail you know,” he called to her, admiring her fine ass, another good quality, thinking it was a damned shame about her boobs. She squealed.
“Hey, Charlie and April are getting married,” she yelled excitingly. He got up to read.
“Nice picture, she’s got nice breasts,” he said peering at the. Violet rolled her eyes.
“Is that all you men can think of?” she teased. Then the next picture came up and she squealed again. He admired Kathleen’s fine pair.
“Now, Kathleen is one hot looking woman, Steve and Synta got a good thing going on there,” he gushed. She rolled her eyes again. Then, of course, the next picture came up and he smiled and she made a face.
“I don’t think those pointy ears are the least bit attractive,” she declared. He looked at her strangely.
“Are you kidding, it’s like fucking a faerie, Nyla is so hot and she’s got an incredible pair of boobs,” he declared and she made another face. Then the next picture came up and she gasped. He grinned.
“What the fuck, my Harry is marrying that fucking Jake, no way in hell,” she yelled and picked up the picture. He reached for it.
“Hey, that’s my mail,” he said and she slapped his hand away. Then the next picture came up and they both read it. She snatched that up and read it again. Then she opened her mouth and screamed. He looked at her with shock. Doors opened down the hall and the door to his room opened. Bobby peeked in and saw them standing there naked, her holding the two pictures and screaming. Billy grinned at him.
“She just found out Harry and Jake are getting married and Harry’s pregnant,” he explained. Bobby nodded. Susie rushed in the room and rushed up to Violet.
“Oh, my God, Violet, honey, what’s wrong?” she asked. Violet handed her the group picture and Susie read it. “Oh, God,” she exclaimed. Violet stomped over and began putting on her clothes.
“That fucking bastard, how dare he take Harry away from me, I’ve been waiting for six years for Harry, he loves me, Susie I know he loves me,” she yelled and Susie nodded.
“I’m sure he likes you,” she said weakly. Violet glared at her.
“Harry loves me, you know that, he said that day at the waterfall that if I waited until I was eighteen, he would be my lover, you remember that don’t you, Susie?” she said and Susie almost nodded.
“I don’t think he said that exactly, Violet, he just said you were too young and to wait until you were eighteen to ask him again, I think that’s what he said,” she told her friend. Violet stood up and screamed again. All three kids looked shocked.
“I’ve waited six years for you, Harry, and you broke my heart; I’ll hate you forever for this. I swear one of these days, I’ll get you for this, I swear I will,” she screamed. Then calmly she walked out of the room and out of the house. They heard her drive off.
“Man, that bitch is crazy,” Bobby remarked and Billy grinned.
“Yeah, but she does give great head,” he commented and Susie giggled.
“You two are pigs,” she said and they agreed and laughed. Then they all looked at the pictures and went over to Harry and Jake’s.
Now, Violet was all sugar and spice smiling at Jake and Harry and all the older kids like she hadn’t said she hated him. Harry and Jake pretty much ignored all the little kids as they searched for the perfect rings to express their love and commitment to each other.
“I don’t want a diamond, diamonds are too flashy,” Harry said as they peered over trays of gold, silver and platinum diamond men’s rings. Jake made a face.
“I agree, babe, diamonds are too common,” he whispered so the girls who were going insane over diamond engagement rings didn’t hear them. They grinned and kissed. Violet saw this and her dark, brown eyes flashed. The boys moved on to the sapphires.
“Sapphires are nice, so are amethyst,” Jake said and added that the purple stone matched Harry’s eyes. Harry smiled.
“Amethysts are not very expensive, besides matching my eyes is tacky and we don’t want to be tacky, honey,” he said. “And I don’t care for sapphires; they look like rhinestones, tacky.” Jake grinned and they moved on.
“Emeralds are really nice, I like green,” Harry said with a sly smile. Jake laughed and kissed him again. These days, he couldn’t resist kissing him, his eyes were so alive and he moved so gracefully and he was just so damned sexy. Jake looked down at the green stones.
“I like emeralds, they’re very elegant and very expensive,” he said and emeralds it was. Now they just had to find the cut they liked. They got rid of diamond right off the bat; that was too feminine. And heart-shaped was too precious and tacky. Round was okay but when they tried them on, they didn’t like the way they looked, on one ring the stone was too small and the next ring, the stone was way too big. They finally decided on a nice square cut, in gold because platinum just looked like silver and silver and emeralds looked cheap and tacky. Gold was nice and elegant and very manly. They loved the way they looked on their hands.
“Very nice rings, Harry, Jake, very nice, I love emeralds,” Kathleen gushed when she saw what they picked out. Harry thanked her and then removed the whole tray that contained about a dozen of the rings in the same style but different sizes. They all looked confused. He grinned.
“Well, I’m not about to sell our wedding ring to anyone else, maybe one of our sons will want to wear them but only family will ever wear these rings,” he said firmly. Jake kissed him.
“Harry, can we have an engagement ring too?” Violet asked as she peered at the one on her finger. Harry laughed and pointed to the tray.
“When you get engaged, Violet, you can have an engagement ring, please return it to the tray, darling,” he told her firmly and with a pout she and Susie returned their rings. He offered all the girls earrings instead.
So they all ran off to the earrings which were fantastic and all the little girls took forever to pick theirs out but they finally choose and they left the store. Violet was mad because she really wanted that ring so she could pretend Harry had given it to her. She sat in her car and watched the other kids drive away.
“Come on, Violet, lets go, I’m bored,” Susie who had rode with her complained. Violet glared at her.
“Wait a minute, I want to watch them leave the store, maybe they’ll forget to lock it and we can get those rings,” she said crossing her finger. Susie sighed. Then finally all the cars except for Jake’s jeep were gone, Violet grabbed Susie’s arm.
“Come on, let’s go,” she ordered and they got out of the car and rushed into the store. The door opened and the bell above it rang. Harry came out of the back room and saw them. He smiled.
“What are you two doing back here, I thought you left,” he said. Violet smiled.
“We want to change our earrings, right, Susie?” she said and pulled her up to the counter. Susie smiled and Harry waved his hand to the earring counter.
“Just leave the ones you didn’t want on the counter and I’ll put them up,” he said, and then he looked down at the tray he was carrying. “Shoot, I’ll be right back, ladies,” he said and went back into the back. Violet saw her chance and ran across the room to the engagement rings and grabbed the one she had been trying on. Susie rushed over and grabbed hers. Then they rushed over and took earrings off the rack and put them on the counter. When Harry came out they were rushing out the door. He grinned and walked over to the earrings and picked up the ones they didn’t want and put them in the right place.
“Who was that, babe?” Jake asked as he came out of the back room. Harry grinned.
“Violet and Susie changed their minds about their earrings and exchanged them,” he informed him. Jake grinned.
“It only took them an hour to pick out the first pair; how long did it take them to exchange them?” he asked. Harry laughed.
“Only a second, they must have changed them back again,” he teased and they looked around the store. “I think everything’s put away except for those rings, will you put them back, honey?” he asked and Jake nodded and walked over to the ring tray and started to put it under the counter. Then he looked at it and paused.
“Harry, exactly how many engagement rings did the girls pick out?” he asked in a funny voice. Harry looked at him.
“One each, why?” he asked and walked over. He glanced down at the tray and counted the empty slots.
“There are five rings missing from this tray, Jake,” he said and Jake looked at him.
“Someone helped themselves to a couple of rings, babe,” he told him. Harry looked confused.
“But all of our friends would just ask,” he began, and then he frowned. “Those two little bitches,” he snapped. “Come on, honey, let’s watch the security camera.”
They went to the back office and watched Violet and Susie shop-lift the rings and play with the earrings and Harry got mad.
“They didn’t even want to exchange their earrings, they just used that as an excuse to get into the store,” he snapped. Jake hugged him.
“We’ll ban them from our stores, babe, that’s the last time they’ll do that,” he said. Harry nodded.
“I’m getting my rings back, Jake, those two little girls
