Chapter 6: Settling in At first light I was practically dragged from the bed, I already found myself sleeping so well in New Hope, or maybe it was because I was no longer sleeping alone, but either way I loved it. Waking up... not so much. But after grabbing a bite to eat and having a chat with Ann; the older lady that ran the kitchens, I felt much better, my plan was to head straight to the infirmary and start an inventory. I spent most of the morning going through the stock and organising it, I added some of my own supplies to the cupboard and then repacked my bag that I carried pretty much everywhere with me, I wanted to be able to deal with anything from a grazed knee to gunshot wound at any moment. The next few days went by a hectic blur, I was kept busy in the infirmary; within the first 2 days I'd already given health checks to all 33 of the children aged under 12. Luckily Erin and Aaron, the two nurses had already proven themselves as very capable, I'd seen them give stitches, deal with a broken finger and calm down a dramatic mother when her baby had come down with a common heat rash. All the same there was a lot to do. There was an outbreak in flu-like symptoms that Erin had also caught. Luckily Aaron and I proved to be immune as we dealt with an onslaught of sickness and by the time things had called down, I'd been at new hope for almost two weeks and the last 10 days I had barely seen Ren or Akeem, Akeem had gotten ill, and Ren was doing more shifts on patrol to cover everyone's sickness. During those 10 days the weather had given New Hope quite the beating, rain like I'd never seen before, poured from the skies onto the hard compacted earth, flooding much of the block. The crops and plants in general were thankful for the extra water, the infirmary however was not. The building that housed the infirmary, kitchens and showers was low and wide, the roof was pitched slightly so that rain could be collected in huge containers and used as a supplement. For the crops. However, something evidently was broken because water began pouring through the ceiling one afternoon. Luckily, I had been there and grabbed a bucket to catch the leak and then with much help from Kellen, climbed onto the roof to help his most the problem. The wind had really gotten up and it was hard to see anything more than a few feet from my face, but we managed to temporarily fix the problem and get back into the dry, although soaked to the bone. Any time I did have with Ren and Akeem, included Elijah as he continued to draw plans for the houses, which he insisted would limit the spread of illnesses in the future, something Akeem insisted that I pitch to the group when the plans were shown. I was impressed with how quickly Elijah was able to knock up designs onto paper, work out the manpower needed and construction times. After the illness had seemed to dissipate, a meeting was set for one evening and we all headed towards the schooling room. I entered the room and was surprised to see quite a gathering. As well as the usual people, there were a few of the builders, Ritchie; Akeem and Zeke's father and Angie, another `elder', although neither were over 60. After talking the plan through with the group, Zeke looked over Elijah's plans and nodded, "Well done guys, Elijah you're clearly an asset to New Hope, and you're right we've put of building new homes for too long, the warehouse is basically at capacity now. Elijah, you really think we can get it done in 3 months?" Elijah replied, "We have all the supplies we need for the first phase of 8 houses, with plumbing for sinks and a toilet in each, it's just the manpower, we can only spare a quarter of what I need to get it done." "I don't want to take guards off the walls." Kellen cut in. "Definitely not. We've discussed getting the fair-grounders to help in the past," added Ritchie, "When I mentioned it to Stefan in the past, he was eager to work something out." Lily agreed, "I know some residents will have safety concerns, but we've known the fair-grounders for years and have never had any issue with them. What do you think Angie?" "People need homes." She shrugged, "If the people in the fairground have the capability to help and you feel we can manage any risks, then I think we move forward with the idea." Kellen then looked around the room, "It sounds like we're all in agreement then. We'll get someone to head out in a few days to iron out a deal with Stefan." Lily added, "I'll set up a town meeting for tomorrow so we can take questions from residents, and I'll put together a list of the lucky 16 families that'll be moved into the first homes." With the group in agreement, we started to say our goodbyes as I approached Lily, "As we're only across the hall, can you come into the infirmary I want to show you something for the baby." "Of course, I'll be right there." I had finally found time earlier that day to scope out the machinery in the infirmary and was particularly excited by one of them. A few minutes later she walked into my clean, white room saying, "I hope you don't mind, but I brought Zeke along, he's the dad." "Oh, I hadn't realised. That's great, congratulations Zeke." "Thanks man, you've got us intrigued, what's the surprise?" "Well, Lily if you could hop onto the bed here and lift up your t-shirt, I can show you." As she situated herself comfortably, I rolled one of the machines towards here and pulled out a wand connected to a wire. They both looked a little started as the machine got closer. I chuckled, "Nothing to be scared of this is called ultrasound. See the screen here?" I taped on the front of the machine, as they nodded. "Well, in theory this screen will show us your baby once I find it with this wand." "What?" Zeke asked in shock. "You're joking." Stated Lily. "I'm not. Watch." I squeezed out some jelly onto her stomach and pressed the wand lightly against her skin, she winced slightly as I spread the cold liquid over her abdomen. On the screen we could see dark pictures with different shade of blue outlining her internal organs, I casually named the few I knew and search for her womb. After a few tense minutes in which I felt myself going a little red I found what I was looking for. "This is your womb and right here is your baby. Look there's their little head. This machine is amazing." I said in awe, turning to look at them both. Zeke was wiping tears off his face and Lily clasped a hand over her mouth and sobbed quietly into it. "We're having a baby." She squeaked looking at Zeke, "You're gonna be a Daddy." He smiled at her kissing her forehead, "I can't wait." I flipped a switch turning on the sound and the room was filled with the fast beat of the baby's heart. "Oh." I exclaimed in shock. "What's wrong?" She asked in panic. "No. Nothing, Sorry. Look." I moved the wand ever so slightly to the left, "You're not having a baby. You're having two." They couldn't get enough of seeing their babies on the screen and it took them quite a while to come down from finding out they were having twins. Zeke was particularly excited to tell Keem that they could have mini versions of themselves in a few months. I made a solemn promise not to tell anyone the exciting news. Because of their excitement, I had ended up staying with the two of them longer than I had initially planned and by the time I'd got back to the room, Akeem and Ren had already started their night shift. I decided to take a stroll along the wall in the hopes I'd bump into one or the other of them. After 20 minutes of wandering alone I decided to give up, but first climbed a ladder to one of the empty guard platforms that looked out over the wall. I crossed my arms on the wall looking out to the grey wastes, not that I could see much of anything, just differing shades of greys that I knew to be farmland, hills, trees and mountains. I jumped a little as I heard the ladder being climbed but relaxed back into the same position when I heard Ren say, "What are you doing up here babe?" "I came looking for you, we've barely seen one another this past week or so." He came up behind me, placing his hands on my waist, I relaxed into him, my head on his shoulder. "I know, but things should calm down again for everyone now." "I hope so, because I've missed you." I said as I gently gyrated by arse into his crotch. I turned my head slightly and kissed him lightly on his bristly chin, then pressed my mouth to his neck, kissing and nipping at the warm skin. I could feel his hands, rubbing up and down my chest. "I've missed you to." I closed my eyes and leaned backward, letting him touch every part of me, reaching up under my shirt. He unbuttoned my jeans, forcing his hand inside them, caressing my cock and bringing it slowly to full attention. The other hand reached up, pinching my nipple gently. He forced my jeans and underwear to the ground, and reached between my thighs, cupping and pulling gently on my balls. The night was dark, the only light far off from inside the block, it sent a thrill of excitement through me, doing it here in the open. Not that anyone would care if they saw, more likely they'd try to join in. "I need you Noah. Now." "Then take me." I whispered. He spat on his hand, and I felt the rub of saliva against my hole. His fingers were warm as he pushed them inside me. One hand still working my ass, Ren opened the fly of his trousers and pulled out his cock and began rubbing it against my hole as he slicked his precum against it. He was gently pumping against my ass, his cock slowly stretching my sphincter. I leant forward, braced myself on the wall and thrust my ass backward, my hole stretched around the head of his dick, and he entered me. He was thick, and my ass stretch to accommodate him. The warm breeze from the wastes washed over my skin, as I rocked my hips harder and faster. One of Ren's hand stroking and teasing my cock, his other pulling my hips to meet his thrusts, I shuddered on the edge my orgasm. "Fuck me Ren," I moaned. "I'm going to cum." He was slamming into me now, each thrust hard and deep. As he fisted my cock, I felt my ass clenching tight. I let out a whine, and shot my load, all over the wall. As my hips jerked backward from the force, Ren sucked in a breath, and his cum filled my ass. We stayed like that for short while as we collected our breath, when he did pull out from me, his cum flowed from my ass. "Noah. You're a sexy little bastard." I felt myself laugh as I pulled my jeans up, "Well, I do try." He then walked me back to the apartment giving me a small kiss at the communal entrance before heading back to his watch. I didn't mind the quiet room after that and fell asleep almost instantly. ... The next afternoon much of the town had met in the clearing by the front gate to hear the plans for the new homes and the support we'd be asking of the fair-grounders. Most were in agreement that it was the best idea, a few had questions about safety and how well we could trust them. Ritchie answered for Lily, "We've known Stefan and the rest of his people for years and we've helped each other out on smaller capacities in the past. This in the obvious next step. Having allies in this world should be celebrated." This got him a round of applause from the town, but it wasn't nearly as loud as the cheers Zeke gained when he addressed the crowd to tell them Lily was not only pregnant but expecting twins. Drinks were brought from the kitchens and people celebrated all the good news. After congratulating the two of them a few times, Ren, Akeem and I snuck off back to the apartment for some well deserved alone time. (A little shorter this week, but I have longer ones coming.
