Margaret smiled to herself and sat on the couch. It was 5:00pm, and Ben would be home at any minute. She had taken Nick and Beth over to their grandparents’ for the night. Earlier, she had left them with them so she could shop for a few things. Her smile grew wider as she thought of what she had bought. Even if her mom did give her the idea, it was still great, and the more she thought about it the more she wanted to try it out.

Soon she heard the familiar sound of Hawkeye’s Desoto coming up the driveway. The driveway was long, and surrounded by Oak trees. She always heard him long before he actually got into the house. She ran down to the back of the house, looking out to see her husband get out of the car. It was Friday, jeans day, so he had on his tight jeans that really showed off his nice firm butt just the way she liked it. He had his famous blue Hawaiian shirt on over a tight black tee that showed off his muscles. Once he got back from Korea he had started to work out, she always loved watching him lift weights in the den. Dear God he looked good. Margaret was so excited, and she couldn’t wait. She watched him slowly walk up to the door and she ran to stand in front of the door, smiling suggestively.

"Margaret! I’m-" He called and looked up. "Oh. Hi."

"Hey there." She smiled seductively.

"What are you smiling about?"

"Just the fact that you look incredibly sexy." She smiled and went to him, kissing him as her hands moved to his back pockets and slowly moved her fingers along the fabric inside.

"Hmm. Where are the kids?"

She mumbled the best she could against his lips "At mom and dad’s."

"Hmm, you seem excited to see me today."

"Well, I did some shopping today."

"Oh?"

"Yeah. C’mon." She took his hand and led him upstairs and into their bedroom. She flopped down on the bed and he flopped down next to her. He propped himself on one elbow.

"What is it?" He was very excited and extremely curious. He thought maybe it was a new teddie. He always loved when she wore those.

"Hold on." She jumped up and dug into a bag. He looked at the label and thought he saw ‘Candy’s Sex Shoppe.’ He must have read that wrong he thought.

She pulled out a book and sat on the edge of the bed and he sat next to her. "What is it?"

"The Karma Sutra."

"Karma Sutra?"

"Uh-huh."

"Margaret, uh,"

"Don’t worry, the kids were at your parents all day so I could do a little shopping on my own." She smiled.

"But, everyone knows us here. I don’t even think they sell it anywhere, not that I’ve seen, and all the store clerks would know what you bought and who you are and they’ll think that I haven’t been satisfying you. Where did you even get that?"

"Candy’s Sex Shoppe in Portland."

"Oh. Isn’t Karma Sutra—"

"Positions, yeah. Actually mom gave me the idea."

"Your MOM?"

"Well remember when they were over for dinner, and Beth told everyone you had an itchy penis?"

"Don’t remind me."

"Well mom called me into the kitchen, and told me that she never wanted to know about us doing kinky things in bed, but she said if I wanted, to get the Karma Sutra, and, you know, try it out."

Hawkeye was a little stunned. He always thought that he had pleased her. "Margaret, aren’t I, uh, don’t you, aren’t you satisfied?"

She looked at him. "Believe me, you are AMAZING!" She smiled. "Actually that time with me and Peg we wondering which one of us was luckier, I remembered, I just didn’t want to tell Peg that I was luckier than her. You are seriously the best!"

Happy with that but still confused, Hawk asked, "So why the book?"

"Well I thought it would be fun. I was looking though the book today. There are some really neat ones I think would be kind of nice. I mean, you’re great, but I saw some and I know it’d be really sexy to try it." She opened the book and showed him a few pictures.

"Wow." He whistled. "Some of these seem complicated."

"I’m sure you can do it." She smiled.

He pretended to think about it really hard as he looked from the book to Margaret to his pants to the book. After a moment, he sighed. He looked up and smiled. "Looks like fun." And before she knew it she was flat on her back on the bed and Hawkeye was straddling her thighs and kissing her forcefully.

They groped and explored each other’s bodies as they pleased, Hawkeye groaning as she snapped the waist on his boxers and then pulled them off as he lifted his hips and were now both completely naked. She cupped his firm ass in her hands as he lifted up a bit.

"Hold on." He reached back, grabbing the book. He laid back on her, showing her some pictures. "This one." He smiled eagerly.

"You got it." She smiled back. "But we don’t have to do just one."

He growled a little and nibbled on her lower lip.

****

A long while later, Hawkeye collapsed on the bed and Margaret put her chin on his well defined chest, running her hands through his black, now sweaty and tousled hair, giving him that peaked sexy look.

"Wow." He breathed.

"I know. You were amazing before, but WOW!"

He smiled a little. "Sex was always pretty good, but oh my God that was the best ever."

"I know."

"You were so smart going out and getting that book. First I thought it was because you weren’t happy, but that was so much better."

"Oh I was very happy." She kissed his sweaty chest. "Thank my mom."

He groaned, "Please don’t mention your mom, Baby. I’m lying here with you after having the best sex of my life, I don’t want to think about your mom."

"Sorry, Sexy. But she did suggest it."

"So how did that come about?"

"Well actually I walked in on my parents when I was younger."

"You never! What did they say?"

"Oh they came up with something much more creative than our excuse. They said they were cold and were rubbing together to create friction to warm up."

He laughed a little. "And what was wrong with ‘it was itchy and you scratched it for me’? I mean, you were kind of telling the truth. I did have an itch that wouldn’t go away."

She laughed. "Well so were they. I mean don’t we warm up?"

"Oh that we certainly do. You’re not cold now, are you?"

"Maybe." She looked down. "I can tell you’re cold."

"Hey! I am not!"

"Oh so it’s just that small?"

"Oh that’s dirty."

"Well want me to see about what I can do to warm it up?"

"You bet. We should try another one." He said reaching for the book, as Margaret got more on top of him, kissing his neck and slipping her legs between his and putting her hands on which had long since become one her favorite parts of his body, his butt. "By the way, I’m kidding, I know you’re not cold. You never seem cold." She mumbled against his tongue gesturing to below his waist.

****

The next day, Wednesday, Hawkeye and Margaret were watching TV cuddled on the couch. Nick and Beth were put to bed, and were enjoying the only time they really had together on weekdays.

"I have a surprise for you." Hawkeye said.

"What is it?"

"Well our anniversary is on Friday, so I’m taking that day off. Thursday when I get home for work, we’ll drop the kids off at Mom and Dad’s and then we’re heading out to Myrtle Beach. They’ve got a really nice resort there. I was thinking that we’d have all weekend to try out some more of those Karma Sutra thingys." (AN: I think Myrtle Beach is relatively close to New York and Maine and that, but I’m probably wrong. I come from Canada, eh so I don’t really know. I’m saying that Myrtle Beach is about a four hour drive away and it’s nice and warm there. If I’m wrong, live with it.)

"Oh Ben that sounds great! I’ll pack our bags and the kids’ for the weekend tomorrow, that could take a while so I’ll be plenty busy, but I won’t be able to WAIT for you to come home." She smiled at him and was so happy with the idea of spending the weekend with him, alone.

"Want to make out like teenagers on the couch, afraid our parents might come home?" He leaned over her before she answered.

As his lips neared hers she mumbled, "I guess so. I’d hopefully like to go farther than a high school make out session."

He raised his eyebrows. "You bet. As long as I can brag to my friends in the locker room tomorrow that I made a homerun." She giggled and playfully slapped his chest as she leaned over him pushing his back to the couch and kissed him.

****

The next day Margaret was busy getting everyone ready for the weekend. First she packed everything for Nick and Beth with their "help", which mostly consisted of asking to bring every teddy bear and toy that they owned. Once the kids’ bags were packed she put them down for a quick nap so they wouldn’t be cranky at their grandparents’ house.

She went into her and Hawkeye’s bedroom to pack their bags. She got the clothes he would need, minus pajamas but black silky trunks for swimming in. She smiled to herself thinking about him in those trunks. She also put in his white silk boxers that really turned her on. Then she put in a bit of regular clothes for the two of them, including his tight jeans to show of his butt plus a little more. Grinning, she put in her black teddie and her blue-slightly-see-through teddie.

Margaret opened her dresser drawer and dug around for what she was looking for. She grinned when she found the pink fuzzy handcuffs and the Karma Sutra. God that book has amazing ideas in it, she thought to herself. She looked at the time and realized that Hawkeye would be home soon and she needed to make some sandwiches for her and Hawk to eat on the way. Putting the book she thought in the bag she left the room, though she never realized that she had just laid it on the bed.

She got downstairs in time to see her gorgeous husband walk in the door. He smiled at her. "Hey there."

"Hi. I’m all packed, I’m just making some sandwiches for us to eat."

"Okay. You make them while I have a snack." He wrapped his strong arms around her stomach and nibbled at her neck as she made them sandwiches.

Meanwhile, upstairs Nick and Beth had both woken up and were upstairs looking for their mom. They went into their parents’ bedroom and saw the pink handcuffs and a book. They were slowly learning to read small words, and loved to get their hands on books to try and read. Nick jumped up and grabbed them.

"We can play with this over to Grampy and Gramma’s," He said to Beth who agreed and nodded vigorously.

Sneaking back into the spare room where Margaret had packed their bags they put them into the bag and zipped it back up, giggling.

They walked back downstairs to find their parents kissing passionately and looked away in disgust.

"EWWW!!" Nick yelled as he pretended to spit.

Hawkeye and Margaret jumped apart. "Well we’d better get going." Margaret said while catching her breath.

She ran upstairs and zipped up the bags and Hawkeye carried them downstairs and out to the car. Once the children were buckled up in the back they headed out. On the way to their parents, they stopped at a new store, McDonald’s that had just opened up the week before to get some supper for the kids and brought them to their grandparents.

Finally, after many goodbyes, hugs and kisses later (mostly between Margaret and the twins) they went on their way to Myrtle Beach.

As they drove Margaret laid her head on Hawkeye’s shoulder as they drove along. She sighed. "I can’t wait to get to the hotel."

"Neither can I."

"I didn’t pack a whole lot of clothes, but I didn’t think there was much need to."

"Hmm…"

"I brought your silk white boxers. I love the way the look on you. Though, they look even better on the floor."

"Margaret, don’t get me excited while I’m driving."

She cuddled in closer. Her fingers started running along his thigh. "Oh God Margaret, please. I can’t stand it."

She giggled. "Fine. I’ll wait, but as soon as we get in the hotel room…" She whispered something in his ear that caused his eyes to widen and he grinned.

"You bet." He smiled.

"I brought the Karma Sutra. And the handcuffs."

"Oh I love the handcuffs."

"It didn’t seem like that the other night when you were begging me to untie you." She laughed.

"That’s just because you’re evil."

They managed for the whole four hours; Hawkeye was able to control himself and didn’t have to pull over on the side of the road. A few times if her hand got closer to some of his sensitive spots, he almost had to stop driving and pull her into the backseat, but they managed all the way to remain in composure. Once they got to the resort they checked in. Hawkeye had reserved a honeymoon suite.

They walked in the large room. "Oh Ben this place is beautiful!" There was a large king-size bed, a small kitchenette, a table and two chairs, and one side a couch with a TV. In the bathroom was a huge hot tub.

Margaret went over to Hawkeye and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Thank you so much." She looked into his deep blue eyes and kissed him passionately. Their hands started to roam and soon they were on the bed without a stitch on them.

"Wait." Margaret looked at him. "We should get the book." She managed to pull herself off of him so she could get the book and the handcuffs out of the bag. She dug around. "I can’t find it!"

"What?"

"I don’t know where it is!! It’s not in here though! I was sure I packed it while the twins were having their nap."

"Well, umm, are you sure it’s not in there?"

She emptied out both bags on the floor. "Positive."

He sighed. "Well I know the past couple of nights it’s been the absolute most wonderful sex for both of us, but how would you settle for the stuff you were getting before?"

"You’re still the best anyway." She went over to him and he kissed her.

They jumped back on the bed.

Afterwards Margaret lay on top of Hawkeye, looking into his eyes, threading his hair through her fingers. "You’re still amazing." She said and kissed him gently.

He smiled. "Well it would have been better."

"The thing is, I know I took them out because I remember getting them out and looking through the book. So I can’t figure out where it went."

"Oh God."

"What?"

"What if you laid it on the bed or something, and Mom and Dad come over to the house or something. What if they see it? You know we’d never hear the end of it."

"Well hopefully I just put them back for some reason. When we took the bags off the bed to bring them downstairs I don’t remember seeing anything on the bed."

"Neither do I."

"Well then hopefully no one will ever know about our dirty little secret." She kissed him on the nose.

"Hmm" was his reply as he rolled over on top of her and started again.

Meanwhile, at Jane and Daniel’s, things were a little more hectic than at the resort. Beth missed her daddy and cried a little when they left, causing Nick to cry. Once they were okay with being with their grandparents, they started to settle in, taking out toys and everything they had with Jane running along picking up behind the two little tornadoes.

Daniel and Jane finally were able to keep them entertained by a few toys in the living room, while they went in the kitchen and ate supper. There was very little around that they could get into, since Daniel had kept it baby proof for years because Hawkeye as a child always had gotten into things. Right up until he was sent to Korea he’d manage to break things, and it was difficult to keep things from a 6’2" 30 year old. Nevertheless, the living room was quite safe for the twins to be in.

They were quiet for a long time, which started to worry the grandparents. Daniel looked at Jane. "You don’t think they’ve done anything and are keeping quiet because they’re scared to death, do you?"

"I don’t know. I keep telling myself they’re fine but any children of Margaret and from what I’ve heard about Hawkeye, I know would be trouble. It’s not that Margaret was a bad kid, she just always got into things she shouldn’t have."

"Oh I know, Hawk was the same way. He, well like any boy would be sent to the principles office a few times and such, but he was pretty good. Never a real troublemaker. But he was a hard case just getting into things, like my office. He always wanted to be a doctor and would take my medical bag and pretend to be a doctor for all his stuff animals. More than once he broke a stethoscope and didn’t know until I put it in my ears only to realize the end had been dipped in grape juice."

Jane laughed. "He sounded like a cute kid."

"Oh he was. Sandy loved him so much." He sighed. "Jane, you know, we did, um, you know, once. But, I really don’t think I can do it. I can’t love another woman besides Sandy, and, plus, our children are married. I just don’t think it would be right."

"I know Dan, I know. Al and I divorced, but I just never married because I never found anyone. You’re a very nice man, but we’re just too old to be at that now."

"You got that right, I was stiff for a week!" He laughed as Jane gasped a little.

"Dan!"

"Grampy, Grammy!" Both twins were calling out as they ran into the kitchen. "What’s these words mean?" Nick held up a book to Daniel.

"Hmm, well, let’s see now." He put on his reading glasses he hand around his neck. "Umm, Oh dear. Kids why don’t you go play with something else. This is one of daddy’s and mommy’s um, a medical book. They wouldn’t want you to break it."

"Okay." Beth said and the two turned around and ran out to the living room again.

"What is it Dan?" Jane asked when she saw the troubled look on his face.

"This." He handed her a book and she looked at it and started to laugh. "It’s the Karma Sutra!" She said between her laughter.

"What’s so funny about this?! You know that this is Hawkeye and Margaret’s!"

"I know I know! It’s just, she actually took my advice!"

"Your advice?"

"Well you know about when Beth told you that Margaret was, uh, scratching Hawkeye?"

"Please I’m still trying to get the rotten pictures out of my head."

"Well I talked to Margaret after and said that although I never want to know about the kinky things they do in bed, I said that she could consult the Karma Sutra for advice on it. I don’t think Hawkeye has been unsatisfying to her or anything though—"

"Jane!! This is my son you’re talking about!! Please don’t talk about that! I don’t want to know! I can’t believe you even suggested it!"

"Well I bet they are in Myrtle Beach now having the most amazing sex of their lives!" She was just saying this now just to see the reaction on Daniel’s face.

"Oh dear God! Please Jane!!" He shook his head as if to get rid of the thoughts and he looked at the time. "It’s almost nine, we should get Beth and Nick to bed now."

"Yeah, c’mon. Let’s get the terrors asleep."

They went into the living room to see Beth handcuffed to the coffee table. They were often playing cops and robbers with Nick’s toy handcuffs, though they weren’t the usual ones. These were pink and fuzzy.

"Oh my God." Daniel said to Jane.

"I know. They must be Hawkeye and Margaret’s. I’ve heard that’s a good idea for foreplay too—"

"Jane, for God’s sake, please stop mentioning them and what they do in the bedroom."

"Beth, Nick it’s time to go to bed. These handcuffs are daddy and mommy’s special handcuffs and wouldn’t want you to break them. Why don’t you use your normal ones, Nick. But right now, it’s bedtime."

After much opposing and complaining from the young children, they were finally put to bed in the twin beds that had been put in Hawkeye’s old room for them whenever they came over.

Daniel and Jane were sitting on the couch talking when Jane picked up the Karma Sutra and started thumbing through it. "Oh my God." She stifled a laugh and showed Daniel what she was looking at. A couple of pages were particularly dog-eared and the page was creased. One picture was circled again and again and next to it was written "the sexiest." Another one said "Hawkeye’s favorite" and another said "Margaret’s favorite". As Jane continued to thumb through it she burst out laughing. "Look at this one." Next to one, another little note was written: "Hawk’s doesn’t bend that way."

Daniel looked on with disgust. Jane sighed and pointed to one. "I remember this one." Daniel looked at her with surprise.

"Really?"

She blushed. "Yeah, I can remember when I could do this. It was always my favorite."

Daniel looked at it. "I know. That’s the one where Hawk was conceived."

"That’s how we got Margaret, too."

Daniel laughed a little. "I guess they were ‘made’ for each other then." Causing Jane to laugh with him.

***

At the resort, the younger couple was still looking for the book.

"I guess we just left it home." Margaret said finally.

Hawkeye grabbed her and she grabbed his butt. "I guess we can just make it up as we go along. We never were bad at it before."

She smiled. "That we weren’t." She said kissing him passionately.

The entire weekend they barely left the hotel room. For the most part they ordered room service and ate it in bed, or on the couch, or in the tub, or on the kitchen counter, or sitting on the table. One time they left so they could get clean sheets. They went swimming, which was another excuse to leave. He wanted to see her in her bikini, not that he didn’t love the teddies, and she wanted to see him in his trunks, even though she saw a whole lot more for the rest of the weekend. It also gave them the chance to put suntan lotion on each other. Other than that, they stayed in the room the whole weekend and made love to celebrate their anniversary.

All too soon, it was over and Sunday had arrived. They got dressed in actual clothes for the first time the weekend and headed home.

When they picked up the kids they brought them out to the car and buckled them in. Before they got in themselves, Daniel called out. "Hey Hawk! Margaret! C’mere."

They went back to the front door and Daniel handed them the Karma Sutra and the handcuffs while he fought to keep a straight face. "We thought you might want them. The kids took them off your bed on Thursday." Jane said, also trying hard not to laugh.

The couple looked at them in horror and shock and slowly walked about to their car with their mouths and eyes wide. They couldn’t believe that someone, their parents of all people, had stumbled upon their secret.
