Laura's POV

I chose to go next to Tristan's legs gently running a finger down one of his ankles

As soon as my voice cracked Jarrod immediately went into comfort mode. It was no surprise as I was so used to it by now. He kissed a couple tears from the middle of my cheeks then wiped a couple more on their way down with the backs of his fingers delicately wiping their streaks with his thumb. He then kissed another tear as it fell then wiped my face completely clear of the remaining streaks.

Jarrod then told me not to be embarrassed for crying as he loves me  and will always take care of me and my tears. That's when I felt a fresh wave of tears begin their decent down my cheeks.

I noticed out the corner of my eye William had taken Anna's hand and walked toward Jarrod and I. I then saw William place an arm around Jarrod's shoulder. I gave a small smile as I really liked seeing him this way. Next thing I knew I felt a hand wiping a tear from my the middle of my eye all the way to my chin. It didn't feel like Jarrod's hand so I turned my head to the left and saw William standing directly next to me with his hand still on my chin, smiling.

"Its the least I can do seeing as how you took care of my tears before." He said blushing a little.

I didn't even have time to react before I felt another hand on my right cheek tracing a newly formed streak down to the middle of my cheek then thumbing away the tear before it could even reach my chin. I was taken aback as this hand felt smaller. I slowly turned to the right to see Anna smiling at me as she was silently placing her hand back by her side.

I was stunned for a moment as I wasn't used to having multiple people wipe my tears, let alone at the same time but I had to admit it felt nice to be surrounded by people who cared and were not there to judge.

Seeing Camilla blush a little when William and Anna wiped her tears, I turn to William and smile, then turn to Anna and caress her cheek in gratitude. I finally turn back to Camilla and kiss her lips, showing her all my love for her, tasting her tears in her lips. I softly place my hand on her thigh, give it a soft, reassuring squeeze and caress it from the hem of her night gown to her knee giving her soft pats and squeezes every now and then, feeling her toned, relaxed muscles give in to the pressure. I make sure she knows she is loved and she is part of my family now.

Tristan's POV:

I stretch my legs, they start jiggling as I am having a hard time maintaining that position, plus, I am getting quite turned on as in stretching my legs I am brushing Laura's right arm. As I feel my jiggling tense muscles against Laura's arm she turns around, face up, as she turns to place her left hand on the green in the front left of my left leg. My next turn is right hand blue, as I am already on low ground, I stretch crossing my hand between Laura's legs, inevitably caressing Laura's left thigh. I feel a tent forming in my shorts as Laura's inner thigh jiggles as I brush my arm across it to reach the circle.

I saw Jarrod smile at William then caress Anna's cheek. He then turned to me and kissed my lips which still had leftover tears on them. I kissed Jarrod back as I felt him place his hand on my thigh. He gave it a tender squeeze then slid his hand to my knee. I already feel like part of his family. I've never felt so loved and accepted before.

"Before the day gets away from us we should all get changed and go for an outting. What does everyone say?" I begin smiling at Jarrod. "If it's ok with Jarrod I think it'd be nice if our guests choose what they'd like to do as they are only here for a couple days before unfortunately having to head home tomorrow evening for Monday's work." I finish waiting to see what they have in mind.
