Thrive - Side 2

Those two weeks passed faster than I thought they would and now, I’m minutes away from meeting Abby at the airport. When I was finally exiting the plane, I was ready to rush out of there and into the waiting area where my wife was. The second I saw her stand up and take a few steps, then I rushed to her, seeing the huge smile on her face. She wrapped her arms around my neck and buried her face into it. I lifted her up and wrapped my arms around her as she continued to hold onto me. She stayed there for maybe five minutes till she broke the silence.

“I missed you.” she said as she looked up with teary eyes.

A couple of tears dripped down.

“I missed you, too.”

I wiped her tears and kissed her with such passion, she returned it.

“Fuck.” she said.

I laughed.

“What?”

“I almost forgot how good you taste. Let me have another.”

She went in for another, amusing me,

“I can see nothing’s changed.”

“Well, just my personality.”

She directed me to her stomach as we separated. She placed my hand there as I felt where her small bump was; I smiled.

“Wow.” I said, coming back to eye level.

“Wow, indeed.”

“I have a question.”

“Yeah?”

“When can we tell people?”

She smiled.

“Today, if you’d like. I’ve really been thinking about when I should. I just knew that it’d be after you came home.”

She placed her head into my chest and sighed.

“Are you tired?”

I wrapped my arms around her as we swayed.

Fuck. I missed this.

“Yes. Baby’s kicking my ass.”

I started to laugh.

“Shut up.”

“Ready to go home?”

“Yes. Let’s go meet up with Miranda and Jack. I drove her and I here.”

“Ok.” I said, kissing the top of her head.

We walked over and she hugged Miranda.

“Is someone happy?” she asked.

“Of course I am. I got my man back.” Abby said, wrapping an arm around mine

Once again, I was amused.

“Are we all ready to go to baggage claim?”

After taking Miranda and Jack home, we headed to ours as Abby let me drive while she rested in the passenger seat.

“We’re home.”

“Home.” she said with a sleepy smile.

While she swiftly got out of the car, I heard her footsteps walk toward me to the trunk where I was grabbing my belongings.

“Can I help?”

“No. I got everything covered, including the door."

“Ok."

She walked to the door with me and waited for me to open it. Naturally, I was bombarded with the dogs as I shut the door behind us. I sat on the floor together while they jumped all over and licked my face. In the midst of this, Abby excused herself to who knows where. I saw her filling her cup with water when I placed my hands on her hips.

"Hi." she said, backing into me.

I slid them onto her belly and she placed her own on mine.

"Hi."

"Do you need something?"

"You."

"In what way?"

"Naked. In our bedroom."

She quickly turned around and kissed me.

"How about I get a quick drink of water, then I'll meet you in there?"

"I have a counter offer."

"And what would that be?"

"I wait for you to get a drink and carry you into the bedroom."

She bit her lip.

"I like that better."

I smirked and kissed him. She took a huge drink, set it down then I picked her up and carried her bridal style like on our wedding night into our bedroom. I was extremely gentle as I placed her on the bed. The kind of sex we have is gonna have to change somewhat, but I don't mind that at all; as long as I'm having sex with Abby, that's all that matters. We removed our clothes quickly and soon I was hovering over her and caressed her face before reattaching my lips to hers.

"I love you, Abby."

"I love you, Alex."

I pressed my forehead to hers as she ran a hand through my hair. My lips travel down her neck to her breasts where I lightly pressed a kiss to each one knowing how sore they were then gently touched her thighs, dangerously close to her danger zone. She moaned as my thumb began to rub her clit before I replaced it with my mouth.

“Alex. Fuck.” she said, bucking her hips.

I quickly slipped two fingers inside her, pumping in and out and Abby was on the verge of cumming.

“I’m almost-”

She orgasmed before she could finish her sentence as she lifted her hips up then lowered them.

“How do you wanna-” I began to ask.

“First of all, you can come up here and kiss me.”

“Yes, my queen.”

She giggled and waited for her kiss. I was absolutely intoxicated and I can just never get enough.

“Now, before I was so rudely interrupted...” I said after a few seconds of kissing.

She laughed.

“How do you want to do this? Because I know things are different now.”

“Yeah. ‘Cause you can’t lie on top of me while I’m pregnant. That bums me out.”

“Me too.”

I honestly don’t know who it bums out more, her or me.

“Move off me...”

I moved so her ass was on the edge of the bed and her legs were bent. Her legs were on either side of me while I positioned myself at her entrance and had a steady hold on her ass.

“Ready?” I asked.

“Yes.”

She kept her arms on her belly when I entered her.

“Oh my God.” she gasped.

I smirked.

Her eyes shut for a brief second before I started a great rhythm; I seriously needed this.

“Faster.”

“You sure?”

I was so concerned about her wellbeing along with our baby’s.

“Yes.” she said, moaning.

I nodded and proceeded to do what she said.

“Thank you.”

Her eyes rolled into the back of her head as I pounded into her. My groans and moans would not end. When we came, we were panting and exhausted. I pulled out and noticed that she didn’t want to move.

“You okay?”

“I’m perfect. So fucking perfect.”

She was smiling and looked like she was in bliss. I moved her enough so that I could lie beside her.

“I missed having sex so much. You have no fucking idea.” she said, still panting.

“I missed this, too.”

“You know, I’d love to lie on you right now, but my boobs are sore.”

“You sure there’s nothing I can do?”

After thinking for a second, she sat up and placed herself into my lap, taking hold of my hands and put them on her boobs. I quickly got the picture and began rubbing them causing her to throw her head back. She moaned as her head fell forward and pressed her hands into my chest.

“Thank you.” she cried.

“Abby?”

I was worried.

“I’m okay. Just continue.”

I continued to pause.

“Please.”

She was teary-eyed again.

“Alex.”

I started up again and she was starting to feel relief. A couple of minutes later, I stopped again.

“How you feeling?”

“Good enough that I can lie partially on your chest, but we’re gonna have to lie differently tonight. The pain will be back.”

“Is the pain really that bad?” I asked as she maneuvered so she was lying that way.

“Yeah and it’s only gonna get worse.”

She buried her face into my chest as I wrapped an arm around her.

“And you’re gonna get through it like you always do.”

She mumbled into my chest and shut her eyes, drifting off to sleep. About two hours later, I woke up and got out of bed, leaving a sleeping Abby alone.

“Alex? Where’d you go?” she said.

I walked into our bedroom.

“I was on the phone with my mom. I’m sorry.”

“That’s okay. Oh wait, you didn’t tell her yet, did ya?”

“I’m not telling her without you beside me.”

“So, she called you then?”

“Yes.”

She smiled and nodded.

“Come sit.”

I sat down and she sat up and kissed me.

“There’s something I need to show you. I’ve been waiting for a couple days to show you it.” she said, smiling.

She reached into the nightstand and located what I was assuming a sonogram photo. She held it to her chest for a second before handing it to me. She looked at me intently while I held it in my hands.

“This is our baby.” I breathed.

“Yes.” she said, reaching for my hand.

I gladly took it and held it tightly. Sure, the sonogram photo was small, but that's going to be our baby in a matter of months and that's what most important.
