Chapter 20

After breakfast in which Hannah and Tiffany finally showed up for. We all meaning the family, went to hangout by the pool. I noticed my four beautiful ladies came wearing the same swimsuit along with my daughter. I looked over at Jasmine, Diamond, Hannah, and Tiffany with confusion. I guess Diamond noticed as she spoke up.

"What's wrong baby you look confused about something?" She asked as I nodded

"Yeah what is up with the same black and red trimmed bikini's?" I asked as Tiffany giggled as did our daughter

"So everyone knows who your ladies are stud." Tiffany says as they all nod

"But what about Karen?" I ask pointing at my little girl

"So everybody knows I am your daughter daddy." Karen says as I chuckle shaking my head

I leaned back in the lounge chair with a smile feeling the sun shine down on me. It wasn't long until I felt little hands on me. I open my eyes to see it's my sons and Lil Heath.

"What's up my little men?" I ask as they smile

"Daddy Uncle Jack wants to know if you want to play bolley vall." Lil Greg says as Kota and Lil Heath giggle

"It's volley ball bubby." Dakota says to his brother

"Yeah that." Lil Greg says as I just shake my head

I see them waiting for my answer as I look at my girls.

"What do you say ladies want to play?" I ask as they all look at me then our kids

"Sure why not darling. If it helps us see that body of yours in action. I am in!" Hannah says with a sexy grin

"I second that most definitely." Diamond says getting giggles from her fellow sister fiance's

We all make our way over to where we see half the family waiting as I see my god mothers, mom, Faye, sisters all in bikinis. I shake my head as Mom and Faye are wearing matching baby blue ones, the godmothers are in light pink, Michelle and Kaye in teal green, Sierra and Mandy are wearing Black, Selena is wearing the same as my ladies and daughter. The thing is all the bikinis are two pieces.

"Heath son you ok?" Mike asks as I nod

"Yeah I am." I answer still remembering what I saw this morning

As I look over at my godmothers I see something I didn't want to see. Each one has camel toe between their legs. It's a good thing I have my shades on as every one would see where my eye's were at. We decided on teams as the ladies would watch. It was Adam, Jack, Chris, and I on one team with Mike, Nate, Ricky, and Travis on the other. Our family as well as other people all gathered around to watch. The game was going well as both teams were being cheered for. During the middle of the game Jack was spiking the ball but it hit the net coming back at Chris hitting between his legs. Chris went down grasping his crotch. Selena rushed over as did the kids. Dakota went to his uncle with concern.

"You ok Uncle Chris?" Kota asked as Chris shook his head

"Sorry bro I didn't mean for the ball to hit you." Jack says as I looked at Dakota looking from Chris to himself

I watch my youngest son raise his shirt looking at his belly button. He steps to Chris tapping him on the shoulder.

"Is it your outty Uncle Chris as I have one too." Dakota says pointing at his belly button

"No honey it wasn't his outty." Selena says as the family laughs

He stands there for a moment before tapping Chris again on his shoulder. Chris looks up at him again.

"Is it your pee pee?" Dakota asks making the guys and I chuckle

"Yes little buddy." Chris says as Dakota goes wide eyed

My son looks around before he sees the ball. We watch him go over to the ball straddling it. He looks down at it before shocking us all even Chris. Dakota went down hard hitting the ball with his crotch. My eyes go wide as my son goes down crying holding himself. My girls go over to him as Diamond has tears in her eyes.

"Kota baby talk to mommy. Why did you do that?" She asked holding him to her

"So Uncle Chris wouldn't feel alone." He answers as the mothers say awwww

We hear two more screams as I turn to see Lil Greg and Lil Heath laying on the court holding themselves. Hannah goes to Lil Heath as Jazzy goes to our son. I just lower my head before I speak.

"Well guess they just wanted to fit in." I say getting laughs as the mommies comfort the boys

I see Selena wants to comfort Lil Heath who still doesn't want to have his mother around him. I hope by the end of the cruise they become mother and son again. As everyone started to get things back under control we noticed it was lunch time and made our way to get to the buffet that was in the dining hall. All the women put their wraps on to cover their bottom halves. Once we all get our plates full and get seated that is when I start staring at my three godmothers in which momma Ellie notices before speaking.

"Heath honey what is it? You are looking at us like something is wrong." She says as I let out a sigh

"Well there is something, but I don't know how to say it." I answer as they all three look at me

"Just say it honey as whatever it is I am sure we can talk about it as a family." Momma Kiko says as Ellie and Verna nod

I look at them as my family all start wondering what's up.

"Well this morning I went to see if you wanted to home school the kids. I knocked and there was no answer. I walked in and well I saw you three um." I paused as their eyes went wide before I continued " I saw you three doing it."

When I said that my godmothers all blushed as my godfathers all started laughing.

"I told you three that you would get caught one of these days." Ricky says as Nate and Mike nod

"Wait you guys knew?" I asked as they nodded

"Yes why wouldn't we. It helps our marriages." Mike says as Nate and Ricky nod

"Ok I am confused what did you see baby?' Tiffany asks as I blush

"Honey he saw us petting the kitty." Momma Ellie says as to not say it directly

"Wait what you mean you three have?" Selena asks before cut off by Verna

"Love with our tea yes when your fathers are at work." Verna says as the mother's nod

"Oh my so that is what goes on when our dads are at work?" Chris asks getting nods also

The rest of the family just eat quietly as the kids just ignore the adult talk. I look at my three godmothers before excusing myself. My ladies ask me if I am ok. I answer saying yes that I just need some air. My mother stands up surprising me making her way over taking my hand leading me out of the room. We go up to the upper deck making our way to a clear quiet spot. She has me sit down as she sits on my lap as I use to when I was little and would sit in hers.

"Honey you sure everything is ok?" She asks as I nod then shake my head

"No mom I mean I asked for no secrets and what do I find a secret." I say as she shakes her head

"Heath baby do you think they could actually come out and say ' Heath hun we have sex and eating each other's pussies out'. Honey I don't think they could. Look I know this seems very strange, but it helps them not to cheat on there husbands." My mother says making a point

"True I can understand that. So have you um been with them?" I say asking getting a giggle

"Yes I have baby ... are you disgusted knowing that?' She asked as I shake my head

"No guess not as it kept you from cheating on dad." I say as she nods

"Exactly honey even after what happened to your father until that bastard Tyrone came along." She says with anger

"Well mom you don't have to worry about him now. Your back in my life and with Faye. We are not going to let him hurt you mom." I tell her getting a sad look

"True but I still have nightmares at times. Faye helps me by holding me in her arms as I cry." My mother says as I hold her

"She is a good woman mom." I say to her as she nods agreeing

We sit there in silence until I let out a sigh.

"I guess I should go apologize to them for bringing out their secret." I say as my mom looks into my eyes

"Yes you need to honey sorry to say that. Just don't hold it against them for being intimately together." She tells me as I nod before my mother continues " They love you Heath sweetie just as Faye and I do."

"I know mom as I love all of you. It's just I um can't get their." I try to finish before mom starts giggling

"You can't get their naked bodies out of your head?" She asks as I nod with a smirk

"Yes I can't get what they look like out of my head. I guess now I know what Selena and Tiffany will look like in 20 years." I say with a chuckle as she giggles slapping my left arm playfully

"That's bad honey, but I guess true. So question would you fuck them or make love to your godmothers?" She asked making me show shock

"Mom what kind of question is that?" I ask as she laughs

"A simple question sweetie again would you if you had the chance to?" She asks as I sit there figuring out how to respond

"Actually I don't know mom. I mean they are beautiful, but they are married to three guys that are fathers to me. So to answer your perverted question I don't know. I guess if things were different or I was Jack maybe, but still I have no clue." I exclaim as she cuddles into me

"Baby it's not being perverted it's called healing those hearts that were hurt as yours has been. Heath honey I still feel bad for not being there for you all these years. Maybe if I was there your heart would be strong." She says with some tears as she rubs my chest letting the tears fall

"Mom if I was there Tyrone would of never had the chance to hurt you." I exclaim as she holds me tight as I return the hug

We hold each other a bit longer before making our way back to our family. My godmothers looked at me with a look of fear and worry as I approached them. I had each one of them stand before I gave them a hug. I apologized to them for bringing their secret out to the open. Each told me it's ok as it would of been found out one day. I felt momma Kiko grab my ass with a smile as she said I could watch anytime. I asked if she was kidding only to get a nod then some giggles as I blushed. After hugs and kisses on the cheeks we finished breakfast making our way to the deck to continue our 3rd day on the ship. Tonight was suppose to be Chris and Selena's night with the kids, but they changed with Adam and Michelle, because Lil Heath was still not having anything to do with his mother. As us younger adults were lounging around the swimming pool with the kids in the kiddie pool with Jack, Sierra, and Mandy. I looked around to catch a glance of a woman staring at Kaye. She looked to be in her early 50's, 5'7, 120 lbs, with long black hair her eyes looked to be as brown as Kaye's. I looked at her face and for some reason she looked familiar. She looked away for a minute as if debating on something. She turned back to look at Kaye again, but this time stood up making her way over to my sister who was holding hands with Travis. The woman once made her way to Kaye standing in front of her. Travis and Kaye looked up at the woman.

"May I help you ma'am?" Kaye asked as the woman nodded

"You wouldn't happen to be Kaye Robertson would you?" She asked with a look of hope

"Yes I am Kaye Robertson, but how do you know me?" My sister asked as the woman took in a deep breathe to only let it out

"I am Jacqueline Pierce I ... I am your mother Kaye." She says shocking Kaye to no extent

"You ... you can't be. My ... my mother died when I was a little girl." Kaye says sitting up quickly

"I know baby girl, but I had to fake my own death to get away from that monster you call a father. I had to get away so I could start fresh and do all I could to get you away from him, but I never could as your father would move when I got close to getting you and Trey. I am so sorry Kaye." Jacqueline explains as Kaye stands up looking at the woman in front of her

"Prove it, prove that you are my mother." Kaye says as the woman lowers her left bikini top to show Kaye

"When you were 6 years old you accidently scratched my left breast before getting out of the way of your fathers punch that he gave me. I was trying to get you to safety, but he caught up with us as I ran down the sidewalk. Kaye you were always protective of me. After that day I had enough. I am so sorry for leaving you." Jacqueline says as Kaye has tears in her eyes

"But dad said you left, and the police found your dead body ... he even had the police reports?" Kaye says as Jacqueline nods

"Yes, but I had a few friends that your father didn't know about. I think you know their son though." Jacqueline says as Kaye looks confused before her eyes go wide

"No way you know GH0$T?" Kaye asks as I watch Jacqueline smile with a nod before my sister continued " How did you find me?"

"Through him as he thought since you changed for the good it was time for mother and daughter to get reacquainted, but if you feel you don't want me back in your life I will understand. I just wanted you to know that your mother is still alive, and has missed you so much." Jacqueline says with tears as Kaye cries

"Oh god mom yes I want you back in my life, but how do we leave off from before? It's been so long since I was a little girl?" Kaye asks as Jacqueline nods

"Baby maybe we start with a hug then move on from there. Our mutual friend filled me in on everything and I hope your new family can understand why." Jacqueline says as I see everyone smile

I watch the two hug accepting the other as Travis stands up. He stays quiet before Kaye breaks the hug. I watch as he extends his right hand.

"Ma'am my name is Travis Thompson. I am your daughter's boyfriend." He says as she takes his hand

"Nice to meet you Travis. So I take it your Maggie's oldest son?" Jacqueline asks as he nods with wide eyes

"Yes how did you know that?" He asks as she giggles

"Again Kaye and my mutual friend." She says turning around to look at me

"And you must be Heath the young man my daughter decided to protect from my asshole of a ex." Jacqueline asks as I stand up

"Yes, so your Kaye's mother?" I ask getting a nod

"Yes and I know this looks bad and all, but I had to take this chance to get back in my daughter's life." She tells me as I nod

"Actually this cruise was one of healing for my family. Even those that want a second chance as I was given. So how long are you on board?" I asked being curious

"Just another day as I only had enough for the past 3 days." She tells me as I get my cell phone out

"What are you doing Baby brother?" Kaye asks as I give her a wink

"Yes this is Heath Thompson ... yes same one. Look I have a friend that would like to extend her vacation on the same cruise ... her name is Jacqueline Pierce ... Yes that would be her. Could you put her on my list of family ... yes that is perfectly alright. Thank you have a nice day also." I said hanging up seeing wide eyes before I continued " What?"

"Heath you didn't have to do that." Jacqueline says to me as I shake my head

"Yes I did Ms. Pierce as your my sister's mother. Look this family takes care of their own, and since you are Kaye's mother that makes you OUR family to. So why don't you both take the day getting to know each other as a mother and daughter." I say as Kaye and Jacqueline embrace me with hugs

After they break their hugs to me I sit back down watching Kaye, Jacqueline, and Travis leave. Kaye made it clear that Travis was going with them to as why I have no clue. At that moment my ladies all come and flock to me sitting on my lap or on the end on the lounge chair with smiles.

"What you just did was very nice baby." Jasmine says as the others nod

"Yes it was darling, but what made you do that?" Hannah asks as I chuckle

"I thought of it as if my own mother did the same. I would hope she would come back in my life in which she did." I answer as each of them smile

"Well still that was very nice of you baby, and deserves a reward." Diamond says looking around before sliding her right hand up my left shorts leg reaching for my cock

"Diamond what are you doing?" I ask stunned and shocked as she gives me a wicked grin

"Giving you a hand job. Ladies anyone watching us?" Diamond asks as they giggle

"Yes we are why don't you take it to your cabin, or go to the couples area." Selena states as Chris laughs

"Your right come on lovers we have a man to reward." Diamond says letting go of my hardening dick

They get up helping me after. As we start for our room Karen gets out of the kiddie pool and comes over to her mother.

"Where are you going mommy?" Our daughter asks as I chuckle

"Your mommies are going to take daddy back to our room to spend some time together. You be a good girl ok sweetie." Tiffany says giving our daughter a hug

"Ok mommy, but remember we were going to get pedicures later." Karen says as I start to laugh

"I remember baby girl now go to Uncle Jack and your Aunts Sierra and Mandy." Tiffany says as Karen giggles running back over to the kiddie pool

I shake my head as I am led to our room by four beautiful women.

Travis's POV: Around 3 p.m. in the after noon

The family has been on the cruise for a couple days now. I had forgotten how much fun family vacations can be. Heath got the family awesome rooms. I'm saddened that I was a after thought, but know I only have myself to blame. Keisha, my first love and now ex step sister, talked to me while I guess Heath had gone back home to California to think. She told me why she left and what she had done. She made me see the damage I had done to Champ. I remember teaching him how to swim and ride a bike. I chuckle remember him wiping out and me coaxing him back on... 'Bubby you promise not to let go.'" I'll never let you go Champ" Heath starts peddling as he picks up spend I let go. He's riding a bike as mom, dad and Shellie come out to see Champ riding a bike like a big boy. He turns and doesn't fall down. He looks to see me and realizes he's doing it all on his own, 'Bubby look at me I'm riding by myself. Now Shellie, you and me can all ride together.' I feel arms around my shoulders and turn to see Shellie and her sweet smile as she kiss my cheek, 'Thanks Buddy for teaching Heathie.' I smile back, 'Oh course a big brother is supposed to do these things.' I cry as all the memories come back. The thing that hurts the worst is thinking that if I had listened to Tyrone and thrown Lil Greg into the ocean I'd have killed my own nephew. I smile thinking that Heath has some good people around him. I think back to the second day of the trip and asking Heath to talk with me. He glares back and I tell him its brother stuff. He gets up but so do the other three.'This is brother stuff ... not guy stuff. Sit down.' It's the one called Adam that looks at me with such malice that I take a step back, 'You listen good ... HE IS MY BROTHER. Blood doesn't mean shit. I'd die for him just as he would for me. FAMILY IS THOSE THAT CARE FOR YOU AND YOU FOR THEM.' I try to talk to Heath just for him to sock me in the gut, 'Back off Travis.' The memory makes me cry as I wonder what my dad thought of his sons fighting. I make my way back to the room. Once in the bed I fade off to slumber and I'm about ten again and am walking down a hall full of monitors. About that time I see my dad, but his eyes are red and he talks with a voice that scares me.

"TRAVIS MARSHALL THOMPSON SIT IN THAT CHAIR THIS INSTANT." My dad tells as about that time a chair emerges from the floor

I shake my head in fear. Leather bands come from behind the chair and grab me bringing me to the chair and securing me.

"YOU WILL WATCH THIS." He tells me as about that time each monitor places a memory of Heath and someone in the family ... mom, shellie, me, auntie el, aunt kiko, auntie verna, uncle mike, uncle rick, uncle nate, selena, tiff and chris

All are happy memories. Then videos start playing of Heath coming home and Shellie and I leaving, then the summer we had hooked Tyrone with mom and finally the Christmas we left him. I start to cry wondering what I had missed and caused Champ to miss. Then the video floats to a scene of Heath looking distressed. He looks about eighteen and in turmoil.

"Dad what's wrong with Champ?" I ask as he looks at me with venom

"WATCH AND SEE WHAT YOUR ACTIONS HAD CAUSED TRAVIS." He tells me with anger as I watch as Heath strips and walks through a bedroom door

I see Chris is sticking it to Tiffany while she eats out Selena. I watch as my brother takes his girl and when he finishes he assualts his best friend. Selena tries to stop him, but she is no match and Heath he ... he rapes her! I watch as he leaves and I ask my dad to stop the movie. He shakes his head no. I then see Heath at a mall watching a young family as he leaves Jack and Adam. Then he's at a dorm room and he starts emptying bottle after bottle of pills. I watch as my brother thrashes on the floor as the tears never stop coming from my eyes. Jump ahead and this one looks current as Heath is on the beach as he heads into the water.

"Stop dad this is enough ... please stop I can't watch" I say as I close my eyes as they are opened by some device causing me not to be able to close them again

"TRAVIS YOU WILL WATCH THIS TIL THE END." he tells me as Heath goes up to his head and submerges himself

Jack and Adam save him, but he's not breathing. They fight to bring Champ back to life. Then we jump to the his birthday a week ago after I had been politely removed from Heath's house. He walks out and at seeing Shellie and mom he faints. I ask my dead a question that no one has filled me in on.

"Dad why did Champ just pass out?" I ask him to see a sadden expression upon his face

"You remember all those pills from college?" He asks as I nod figuring it out,"It weakened his heart. One bad time too many and he's gone Buddy" My father tells me as I cry because Tyrone had helped me push Champ out of my life but my actions helped almost kill him

I cry so hard I am brought back to reality and Keisha is looking at me with worry.

"Travie baby you ok?" Kaye asks as I nod

"Yeah just a bad dream that told me I need to set things right with my baby brother." I tell her as she smiles and tells me I will and to try not to rush things
