One more thing...

[Riven]

He chuckled softly as got up and stretched as well, smiling. "It's my pleasure honey, I'll always be here whenever you need me."

 

[No More Pretending]

She kissed his cheek.

 

[Riven]

He smiled and opened the door for her, gently taking her hand.

 

[No More Pretending]

She gave his hand a squeeze.

She closed her eyes and sat on the couch.

He smiled and sat beside her, one hand on her belly, the other arm around her and her neck. Rover took his usual position, in front of them and on the ground, lying and curled up into a ball.

Elizabeth smiled softly. "These babies are going to be great. I bet at least one of them is going to be a real genius if they take after you." What she was not thinking about or anticipating, though, was that pregnancy can cause depression, or worsen it in people with whom it was already a problem.

 

[Riven]

He chuckled softly, "As long as they came from you, I can care less, I bet the girl will be beaming with beauty, but it will never outshine the original." He leaned over and gently kissed her cheek. "Besides, your little present may come before Christmas and after their birth", he said with a cheeky smile and wink.

She gave a giggle. "Oh, you're making me blush," she murmured, wrapping her arms around him.

 

[Riven]

He smiled softly as he gently rubbed her shoulders and her stomach, "It's what I'm here for.."

 

[No More Pretending]

She kissed his cheek and smiled. "Love you, dear."

 

[Riven]

He leaned over and gently returned the kiss to her cheek, "I love you too sweetheart.."

 

[No More Pretending]

Elizabeth closed her eyes and smiled.

 

[Riven]

He smiled softly as he brought himself closer to her gently and stroked his fingers through her hair.

 

[No More Pretending]

She giggled. "That feels nice."

 

[Riven]

He chuckled softly, "I'm glad."

 

[No More Pretending]

She looked at him. "I'm thirsty. Let me get a glass of water real quick," she murmured, standing up.

 

[Riven]

"Alright", he nodded as he moved over to the side, "Mind if you grab one for me as well honey?"

 

[No More Pretending]

"Sure thing, dear."

 

[Riven]

He smiled softly as he lied down, "Thank you sweetheart."

 

[No More Pretending]

She brought him a glass.

 

[Riven]

"Thank you", he replied as he smiled and took it gently, sipping it.

 

[No More Pretending]

She sat down and smiled.

 

[Riven]

He placed the glass on the table as he lied back sighing, relaxed.
