The Crew
Chapter Nine

When Michelle arrived at the bus stop early the next morning, Randy was
waiting for her.  He told her that he had left his best man in charge of
the construction at the cabin.  He could call if he needed him, but Randy
was taking the whole day off to be with her.

He took Michelle home where they made love until noon. Michelle
demonstrated on Randy what she had learned from her brothers, without
revealing where she had learned her technique.  Randy was not interested in
where.  He was amazed at the `how.'

A dozen times he yelled out.  "Oh baby, that's wonderful.  Just a little
bit more please.  Don't stop."  On her part Michelle was more than pleased
to please her man.

Finally they got up, showered and dressed.  Michelle said that they had to
make a `to do' list of all the things that had to be done before she went
to work on Monday, and a separate list just for wedding plans.  List one
had priority.

"First off," Michelle said.  "I need a car to go back and forth to work."

"Done," Randy said. "I have a Kia that's only two years old.  It hardly has
any mileage on it because I practically always use my truck, so the car is
yours to drive before it rots away from lack of usage.

"Secondly," she said, I need to buy some nurses uniforms and shoes."  Randy
was sure they were available at Sears and Walmart.

 "Thirdly," she said, "would you let me redecorate Liz's room so it looks
like a little girl's room instead of a cell at the orphanage?"

"Please," he said.  "It would be my pleasure."  She decided to hold off on
the master bedroom for now, and was shocked when Randy asked, "How about
our bedroom?  Can you do something about that too?"  She answered by
smacking one big kiss on his lips.

"I'll just do the whole house," she said.  "But don't worry.  We'll do a
little at a time.  Speaking of time, do we have time to shop at that Sears
or that Walmart that's near the hospital before we have to get Liz?  I'd
like to start with her room."

Randy looked sheepish.  "I made arrangements with Josie to pick up Liz
today and keep her overnight.  Liz was all for it as long as we didn't make
a habit of excluding her.  I assured her it was only for this night."

"What a darling."  Michelle remarked.  "Let's go then."

As it turned out Walmart had everything Michelle needed for her
professional life and for Michelle's new room.  They even ate lunch there.
"Let's get out of here," she ordered Randy after lunch.  We can have her
room ready before we pick her up from school tomorrow."

The moment they got home, Michelle took all the tags off her uniforms and
hung everything away in her closet.  Randy had made room for her clothes in
the master bedroom closet.  It was an easy job.  He didn't have that much
stuff. While she was doing that, he moved all of Liz's furniture to the
center of her room.  The room was small and that didn't leave much working
space.  Nevertheless, he opened the can of paint they had purchased and
proceeded to roll on a beautiful pastel pink that Michelle had chosen.  He
was done in half an hour. They took a break while the paint dried and made
love in their room.

Once the paint dried, they moved all the furniture back in place.  Michelle
replaced Liz's old lady lamp with a Winnie the Pooh lamp.  She changed the
curtains, and a matching bed cover which depicted fairy tale characters.
Next she propped up several of Liz's stuffed toys on the pillows.  Finally
she hung three pictures of fairy tale princesses on the previously bare
walls. They were through redecorating before dinner and stepped back to
admire their handy work.

"Oh darling," Randy said.  "Liz will love this.  I can't wait until she
sees her room."

"I have one more request before we begin working on the wedding plan list,"
Michelle said.  "I'm exhausted.  Would you like to take me out to dinner?"

"I'd be delighted," he said.  Instead of Joey's Place he took her to a
restaurant in a nearby town.  The place was candle lit and very romantic.
The menu was very continental.  They ordered a white wine with a dinner of
chicken Francaise for Randy and veal Francaise for Michelle.  They lingered
over their dinner, and sipped the wine slowly as they held hands over the
table.

When they got home, they undressed and went to bed naked.  They wrapped
themselves in one another's arms, and fell asleep almost immediately.

The crew arrived at the Fisher's home on Sunday as usual, with about
fifteen minutes to spare before church.  Hugs and welcome kisses abounded
before they headed out for the church.  They must have been a little later
than usual because everybody was already inside.

Michael looked around as the crew and the Fishers entered the church.  He
spotted Michelle, Randy and Liz in the second row.  Liz was sitting between
them with her head resting on Michelle's arm.  They looked like a real
family and that made him happy.  They all seated themselves in just about
the last row of pews.  They didn't get a chance to say hello to anyone
until the social hour.

As usual, Paul greeted each of his flock as they left the sanctuary to go
to the social hall.  He shook most hands, but each crew member got a really
strong bear hug from him.  Liz spotted Michael as he entered the social
hall.  She jumped up into his arms and kissed him on the cheek.  "Uncle
Michael," she yelled.  "You gotta come see my bedroom. Mommy redecorated it
and it's so, so pretty."  (Mommy?)  Liz was unaware that Michael had never
seen the old bedroom.  Then she remembered what Michelle had said.  "Bring
my other uncles to see it also, please," she added.

Michelle and Randy greeted everyone with hugs.  Much to their surprise,
Randy kissed Michael and Jerry on the cheek and called them, "Bro!"  After
some coffee and Danish they all headed to the cabin.  This time it was just
the crew, Randy, Michelle and Liz.  The others said they had checked on
progress during the week and would pass today.

The crew whistled when they got there.  It's easier at this point to say
what wasn't finished.  The new bathroom needed to be tiled.  That included
the walls and the floors.  The bedrooms were complete except for the wood
trim work and the painting.  Randy said that Michelle had chosen the colors
and the tiles during the week so if they didn't like it, it was her fault.
He said that samples were on the kitchen table for them to approve.  The
new outside deck also needed to be constructed.  The furniture and new
springs and mattresses were coming right after the painting was completed
and the carpeting was installed.  Randy estimated that the cabin would be
completed and he would have a CO in three weeks, just in time for
Thanksgiving.  This pleased everyone and they gave out a loud whoopee.

"Now let's go to Rosie's before I faint," Foster said.  He hadn't eaten
anything at the social hour saving his appetite for lunch.

 "After lunch let's go to Randy's place so I can deliver the rest of
Michelle's stuff and see Liz's famous room," Michael said.

"Yay," Liz said, giggling.

When they got to Randy's, Ron called his folks to tell them that they were
all hanging out at Randy's and Michelle's' place, and they were invited to
join them.  Josie declined and told them that she was making dinner for the
crew and the Joneses.  She would not take no for an answer this time.  They
had given Joey enough of their business and would no doubt give him much
more.  She told them all to be there at 5PM so they could get going for
home at a decent hour.

After everyone oohed and aahed over Liz's room for Liz's benefit, they
settled down in the living room.  Most of the crew was sitting on the
floor.

Michelle stood and stated, "Quiet everyone.  We have lots to discuss.
Randy and I have set our wedding date for the first Saturday after my
divorce is final.  Any idea yet when that will be?" She asked Michael.

"I started the ball rolling last week.  An uncontested divorce should take
about six weeks.  You should be free by the new year," he smiled at his kid
sister.

"Great," she smiled back.  "Just to be safe we'll schedule the wedding for
the third Saturday in January.  We've spoken to Joey about using his
facilities and he said he could accommodate seventy five people for a
luncheon.  We won't have nearly that much.  He told us he could prepare
whatever we wanted.  It didn't have to be barbequed.

"Have you guys noticed the Holiday Inn about a mile before you get into
Lake Henry?  We've already spoken to them and they are giving a nice
discount to our guests. Of course you guys can use your cabin."

Then Randy spoke.  "Liz is going to be our flower girl, and Michael, I'd
like you to be my best man. And I would be honored if the rest of you guys
were to be my groomsmen.  Don't worry.  We're getting married before lunch
and all you have to wear is one of your business suits.  We're keeping it
informal.  The only fancy people will be Liz and Michelle's best friend,
Sarah from Tucson, who is going to be her maid of honor.  Michelle has
ordered her dress and Liz's, and she told Sarah she could wear any
appropriate dress she wanted to, and not to incur any expense."

"It sounds like you two have been very busy these past few days," Jerry
said.  "Is there any thing us groomsmen can do?"

"Yeah," Randy answered.  "Just show up."


The days flew by too quickly.  The cabin was indeed ready the weekend
before Thanksgiving and the crew drove up to Lake Henry on the Sunday
before Thanksgiving to see it.  As they had agreed a while ago, they would
stop referring to it as a cabin and would begin to call it their country
home.  It was beautiful, and Jeff announced that there was a good sum of
money remaining in the joint account.  It would be a while before the crew
would need to contribute additional funds for mortgage payments, provisions
and so on.

Michelle told them that she loved her job and the people she worked with.
The laid back small town atmosphere was much more to her liking than big
city life.  Liz clung to Michelle as she spoke as if she was afraid
Michelle would get away from her, and she called her Mommy.

Much to their chagrin, the crew could not use the country home, over the
Thanksgiving holiday.  Their first weekend would have to be the one
following Thanksgiving.

Jeff and Jim spent the holidays in their suburban hometown.  Tucker invited
the Lesters, the O'Tooles, and Mackenzie and her family for Thanksgiving
dinner.  Tom, Melissa and Amy Lester went to Melissa's parents.

A short distance away, Michael, Jerry and Jerry's parents, Randy, Michelle
and Liz spent Thanksgiving at the Costello's.

Ron and Foster went up north to the Fishers for the holiday, but refrained
from staying at the country home without the others.  They did take
advantage of the visit by bringing up clothes they were going to leave
there.  They also stocked both bathrooms with male toiletries, and amply
supplied the pantry with non perishables.  Ron gave his dad a list of
perishable food items and asked him to put them in the house Friday
afternoon so that they would not have to worry about food when they all
arrived the following Friday evening.  This time amidst much arguing, Ron
forced his father to accept payment for the food he supplied.

The Friday after Thanksgiving, the crew all left work a little earlier than
usual.  Michael, Jerry, Jim and Jeff not only packed for the weekend but
also packed stuff they wanted to leave in their country home as Ron and
Foster had already done.  When they arrived in Lake Henry they made a quick
stop to say hello to the Fishers and an even quicker stop to say hello to
Randy, Michelle and Liz.  Liz didn't want them to go, but they all assured
her that they would see plenty of each other over the weekend.

They arrived at their home and unpacked.  Michael and Jerry took the
bedroom they had used in the past and Jeff and Jim did the same.  Ron and
Foster had already taken the far bedroom of the new wing which had a window
view of the lake.

Because they were tired from the trip and it was growing late, they decided
on going to Joey's for dinner even though the house was well supplied.
Joey greeted them warmly, and provided the usual wonderful barbequed meal.
They ate and ran.  Each was anxious to "break in" the new house.

When they had arrived the afternoon sun had warmed the house, but now it
was quite chilly.  Ron turned up the thermostat, and delicious warm air
started to blow through the virgin vents.  In no time the place was toasty
and the crew decided to strip.  Once settled in the living room, Michael
popped a porno tape into the new VCR and TV set.  After a few minutes of
viewing hot male sex, the boys were all sporting boners, Hands started to
grope, mouths started to suck, assholes began to receive fingers and then
cocks.  Everyone was moaning and groaning in delightful pleasure.  When
everybody began to cum, Ron found himself with Jim.  Jeff found himself
with Michael and Jerry and Foster came in each other's mouths.  The mixed
couples lay in each others arms, hands on cocks for a long while.  Finally
Jerry said, "Hey guys, I'm falling asleep.  I'm going to bed."

Everyone agreed that the house had been properly "broken in," and headed
for their bedrooms.  Ron took it on himself to turn the thermostat down a
couple of degrees for the night and lock up the house.

Jeff was in bed when Jim joined him.  "This mattress Michelle picked out is
so firm and comfortable and it doesn't creak," he told Jim.  Jim literally
jumped into bed and the mattress made not a sound.  They immediately
coupled and started to make out.  Jeff's cock was deeply imbedded in Jim's
mouth when he realized that they were undisturbed by noises from the next
room.  Only when either Jerry or Michael came did they hear a slight
scream.  If they weren't listening for it, they might have missed it.

The night ended with each couple making love to his own partner and falling
into a deep and peaceful sleep.  If it is true that home is where the heart
is, they were indeed at home.
