The Trip Home

Doug and Carol made it home at about 10:15 PM. They were exhausted. There had been a bad accident on the tollway and they were at work an extra three hours. Tossing their ID badges on the entryway table they locked the front door and went straight up to the bedroom.
"Oh Doug. Guess what happened? Paul Canterna's ex-wife came by the hospital earlier and picked up that letter he wrote to his daughter Molly." Carol walked into the bathroom where Doug was just finishing brushing his teeth.
"Really? I didn't even know you kept it."
"Yea. I was hoping she would eventually come by so I have been keeping it in my locker just in case." Grabbing a tissue she wiped the last little bit of toothpaste from his lower lip.
"I'm sure his 'ex' appreciated that. Did she say what changed her mind?"
They walked into the bedroom. "She just said that she didn't think she had the right to completely cut out Paul from her daughter's life and that if Molly wanted to read the letter later she would give it to her." Carol looked down but didn't seem to be too upset. "Come on, let's get in bed."
Once in bed they snuggled close to each other. Carol rested on Doug's chest his arms wrapped around her.
"Are you okay with all of this?" Doug placed his finger on Carol's chin and lifted it up kissing her lightly.
"Oh, I'm actually very okay with it. I'm kind of surprised that it didn't upset me that much. I guess ever since we talked after Paul's death things just seemed to be 'better.' I mean come on. If my mom can be happy because she is dating Javier then things MUST be getting better." Both chuckled at this.
"Well like I said... she's got to be gettin' it now."
"Oh, Doug! I told you not to bring that up again. The mental images it conjures up is too much for me." She lightly poked him in the stomach.
"Hey, that hurt."
"Turn the light off you big baby. YOU have an early day tomorrow. Oh, and Doug... I love you."
As they were drifting off to sleep he whispered "I love you too Carol."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next morning he had gotten all the way to the hospital when he realized he didn’t have his ID badge. *May be if Kerry isn’t working I can get away with it.* His thought was quickly abandoned when he spotted her down the hall. *Damn, I’ll have to go home. *Kerry and her ‘rules-are-rules’ attitude drove him crazy. *Maybe if I can get this Peds Attending thing rolling I can have a say in how things are run.*
"Hey buddy." Mark was just coming through the bay doors. "I’ve got to go home and get my ID. Not that I give a damn, but if Kerry asks tell her I’ll be in as soon as possible."
"Doug, maybe she’ll just let it…" Mark stopped when he realized who he was talking about.
"No she won’t!" both men replied at the same time.
Doug smiled to himself. Going home wouldn’t be too bad. Carol would still be sleeping.
He loved to look at her when she slept. So beautiful and calm. Her thick, black hair tossed about her face. A slight twitch of her nose when she moved her head. This sight usually led to tender, lovemaking but he told himself he didn’t have time. He’d have to pull a double shift for forgetting his ID in the first place if Kerry had any say in it. He didn’t have time…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
He crept into the house. It was just turning 6:30 AM. He had finally figured out which were the squeaky steps so he gingerly performed his maneuvering act up the stairs.
As he got to the top steps he heard the faint sounds of music coming from the bedroom. The door was slightly ajar so he slowly pushed it open. There she was. His breath almost always got caught in his throat when he would see her again. She was fast asleep on her stomach. Her body wrapped around the pillow he slept on. She had on a purple spaghetti strapped silk gown that had crept up around her waist. No panties. She looked so serene to him. A warm breeze was coming through window and the new Sarah McLachlan CD was playing softly on the stereo.

Oh and every time
I'm close to you
There's too much I can't say
And you just walk away
And I forgot
To tell you
I love you
And the night's
Too long
And cold here
Without you...
**I Love You** by Sarah McLachlan

*There is no way in hell I’ll be back to work anytime soon.* This he was sure of.
He quickly undressed and slid into bed. He slowly pushed her hair away from her neck and started to kiss her upper back.
She groggily started to move. "Doug? What are you doing home?" She opened her eyes and rolled onto her side. Pushing his pillow aside she moved a little closer to him. He was naked and he was hard. "Better yet, what are doing in bed and apparently ready for a little action?" She giggled as she moved directly against him.
"Forgot my ID badge." He began to kiss her. His tongue drawing a line around her mouth then probing inside. "I vowed I would just get it and get out of here. But, damn Carol, you’re irresistible" he mumbled through the assault on her mouth.
She was kissing him hard now too. Pushing him on his back she moved over him and sat up. Doug could feel that she was wet already and this excited him even move.
"Well, if you think this is going to be a quickie you'd better think twice. I’m not letting you out of here anytime soon. We've got to make up for last night." She was just beginning to move her hips in a circle. He reached up and pulled her gown over her head.
"I’ll just have to tell them I got tied up." He pulled her down on him and kissed her. The soft, tender ones she loved so much.
"Mmm, I’m so glad your forgot your badge" she murmured. Her hands beginning their descent down the sides of his body.
She sat up again and began to massage her breasts. Making her nipples hard, she tossed back her head. She was on fire. Her stomach was tingling and her excitement was quickly rising.
Doug watched her as her hands moved down her stomach and then caressed her inner thighs. He loved it when she got herself off. It was an almost guarantee that she would have multiple orgasms when she did this.
Pleasure sounds were escaping from her throat. She sat far enough up on Doug that his penis was pressed against her lower back. She loved feeling it there, waiting to enter her. Her hands pressed against her clitoris and she was making a circular motion. Doug rested his hands on her hips, helping her move back and forth.
"Make yourself come. Carol. I want to watch you come." She looked down at Doug and smiled lightly. He bent his legs so she could lean back a little. She pushed two fingers inside her opening and slightly gasped. Never taking her eyes off Doug she explored the hot, wet hole.
His grip tightened on her hips and he pressed her down into his body. This movement pushed her fingers deeper into her body.
"Oh, God…" she shuddered and her muscles clamped around her fingers. "Doug… Doug" was all she could say as the heat rushed over her body. Her mind whirled as she came. It was a slow orgasm. She continued to move in and out of her body as the feelings coursed through her. Her body ached; she wanted his mouth on her.
"Doug, I want you in me. I want you to kiss me. Feel your body on me."
He rolled her over. He could barely contain himself but he didn’t enter her right away. He wanted to but resisted momentarily. One more minute to gaze at her as she came down from her orgasm.
"Doug… now." She was almost pleading. This was all it took.
He plunged into her quickly, stretching her wider than her fingers had. It was slightly painful, but she loved it. Carol clung to his waist and wrapped her legs around his. Her back arched toward him. Moaning loudly in pleasure.
"Oh Carol, are you going to come for me again? Do it now… do it now… I’m so close."
Like a solider obeying a command her body listened to him. This time her orgasm was sharp and searing. He drove into her, feeling her muscles pull him deeper.
"Oh…" the muffled sound came out of his mouth as he buried his lips in her neck. He quickly, frantically moved up and down her body. Feeling her breasts grind into his chest he kissed her. As he came he never stopped kissing her. Her hands moving through his hair, down his back, grabbing his ass and pushing him into her body. He came hard.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
They laid side-by-side. Both exhausted and breathing hard. Turning to each other they bursted out in laughter.
"Oh shit, Doug, you are going to be in big trouble. You’ve been here for over an hour."
"I know. Nothing like ruining a high by thinking about Kerry." Both laughed again.
"What are you going to say when you get to work?"
"I don’t know. Actually, I don’t think I will explain anything. Mark will just give me a look and I’ll get to work. Kerry can bitch all she wants. Knowing her she will try to use it against me to prevent me from getting the Peds Attending position. ‘He can never get here on time… never follow rules…’" He was starting to ramble and get a little angry.
"Okay Doug. Calm down. Your getting yourself worked up. You better just get going." Carol lightly pushed him out of bed. "You know, I was really trying to catch up on some sleep today, Dr. Ross."
Doug sat down on the edge of the bed reaching for his pants and shirt.
"No, no, no mister. Don’t just get dressed. Get your butt in that shower. Jeez, Doug, do you want to make it that obvious how you got "tied up?"
"No, but…" She looked at him disapprovingly and he quickly went into the bathroom. She smiled as she heard the shower running and drifted back to sleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Doug finally made it back to the hospital and quickly rushed into the lounge to get his stethoscope. Mark was reading over a patient chart.
"Hey Doug. Finally made it back huh?"
"Uh, yea, sorry it took so long… couldn’t find my badge." Doug clipped the badge onto his shirt pocket.
Mark had a funny grin on his face. "Umm, Doug? Did something happen to you when you went home? Some kind of life altering decision?"
"What? What are you talking about?" Doug looked like he had been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
"Well, apparently you have decided to become a nurse and a woman as well." Mark was pointing to the badge Doug had just put on… Carol’s badge he had just put on.
"Oh, I can’t believe it. Well, the only choice I have is to run back home again. Wouldn’t want to break any rules now would I?!"
The only thing Doug could do was laugh as he exited the lounge.
