FOUR WEEKS LATER
“Honey? You gonna come downstairs and have
dinner?” Cassidy asked, pushing open the
bedroom door.
“I’m not really in the mood to be
gawked at.”
She sighed. “Want me to bring something up? There’s still ice cream in the minifridge
freezer thing up here, I’ll get some stuff for sandwiches and we can just eat
here.”
“That sounds like a good idea.” He
kissed Cassidy firmly.
“Hey, none of that yet or you’re
not going to eat.” She went downstairs
and returned a few minutes later with sandwiches and salad, along with extra
bowls for ice cream.
“This looks good…you make it all
by yourself?”
“I can handle a tuna fish
sandwich, thank you. Yes I made it all
by myself.” She kissed him.
“So what do we start with first?
Dinner or dessert?”
“You eat your sandwich if you want
ice cream, young man.”
“Who said anything about ice
cream?” He grinned.
She laughed. “You’re insatiable, you know that?”
“It’s one of my many talents.”
“Hey, I didn’t make you dinner so
it could rot,” she laughed, but she didn’t much seem to mind as she kissed
him. “But I guess I should tell you…”
“Tell me what?”
“That I’m… well, I’m pregnant
again,
“I think the real question is if
*you* can still *get* me pregnant at your age,” she retorted.
“Well it seems I’ve done a pretty
good job with that so far.” He kissed her neck.
“You have.”
And dinner was forgotten.
~*~*~*~
Gavin wouldn’t be in
“What happened?” Cassidy asked, having dropped whatever she
was working on in alarm.
“You…ugh! You and your husband
and…your disgusting sex habits!”
“What the heck is – “ Cassidy remembered the now-ancient rumor and
laughed. “Trust me, little sister, if I
wanted kinky sex we’d have used the whipped cream, not the canned meat. We had dinner up there last night. You really think we’d have bothered with
plates?”
“Yeah…I’m sure dinner is all you
had with the tuna…”
“You were poking in my room, you
probably spotted the loaf of bread and yet your first reaction wasn’t Oh my god
my sister’s husband is doing things which will not be mentioned for fear of
someone’s kids walking in!”
“That’s….that’s just disgusting…”
“From what I hear, you’d know,”
Cassidy replied with a smirk. “*I* for
one wouldn’t, but if that does it for you two…”
“Hey, what just happened?” Gavin asked.
“Well I just found out what your
brother and my sister have been doing with a specific kind of canned
fish.”
“Has
“She thinks we’ve been doing foul
things with pretty much everything we can get our hands on,” Cassidy
explained. “I decided *not* to tell her
I’m pregnant.”
“That’s… more than we really
needed to know… didn’t really think that was his style, but okay.”
“Well…maybe it’s not the best
time…”
“Why? Is it more yours?”
Gavin made a face. “No thanks.”
“Probably not,” Cassidy agreed,
getting up and sitting on his lap after he sat down. “But it’s too bad… I sort of *am* excited…
we’re going to have to tell the kids.”
“They’ll be happy.”
“Because I really think I should
know if you think our sex life is that boring.”
“Anything but boring,
beautiful. And trust me, no interest in…
foul things with… things that do not belong in our bedroom.”
“I hope so.” Cassidy leaned against him.
“Glad you think so, because I
can’t even look at a can of tuna now without getting grossed out.”
“They will. They’ve got to be…we’re having a baby.”
“We’ve done this before,” Cassidy
commented, happy to be nestled in his arms once more. She’d missed him…
“Nevermind trying to look at your
sister?”
“Sweetie…when I look at my
sister…*that* is the last thing that pops into my mind.”
“We have. And we’ve got the proof.”
“We have the most beautiful kids
in the world.”
“Well… I’m very, very glad to hear
that.”
“We really do…when did they go and
grow up on us like that?”
“The only person I’d like to think
those kinds of things about…only not so nasty things…is you.”
“Good to know.” Gavin kissed her.
“They’ve been doing it in small
doses all along so we don’t notice,” Cassidy told him solemnly. “Except our
“Those little fiends.”
“Very good to know.”
“And we know what to look out for
this time,” Cassidy said with a grin.
“Oh did she? And what was that?”
“We do. And it might be a bit easier…there’ll only be
one this time.”
“There are little kids running
around the house.”
“Not all that many little
ones. But point conceded.”
“Just one. I sort of like the sound of that.”
“Yeah…and raising one will be
easier than raising five at the same time.”
“Yeah…so if you want to grope me…
you might not want to do it in the hallway.”
“When *don’t* I want to grope
you?” He teased, leading her to their
room.
“We did a good job, though. They’re great kids.”
“They are. You deserve most of the credit, thought.”
“No, you were an important part of
the process too. They wouldn’t be the
same if they hadn’t had us both.”
“No…probably not…” He
conceded. “We’re pretty good parents.”
“We make a good pair.”
“Well…I can think of a few other
things you like to do besides grope.”
“Shh.” Gavin pushed the door closed behind them.

"Cassidy? Are you sure you don't need me to get a doctor or something?
That's like the third time this week you've thrown up."
"I'm fine... I just haven't
told you yet." Cassidy looked up with a smile. "I'm pregnant."
"Pregnant? Really?"
"Yeah.
"Wow...that's great."
"Yeah. We're excited. In
fact... we were thinking of naming him
"What?"
"Why not?"
"Why not?!? You can't name
the baby
"I'd be pleased that you
wanted to honor him!"
"No..."
Cassidy sighed from her spot on
the floor.
"
"Yeah?" She asked,
looking up at him.
"Are you okay?"
"I don't know, Gavin...I'm
just...I feel tired."
"It's more than that..."
He kissed her cheek.
"When are going to move out
of here?"
"Soon if you want... what
brings that up all of a sudden?"
"Cassidy's pregnant."
"What'd they do, have an
accident?"
"That's not why I want to
move out. You said we'd leave as soon as everything was under control. It has
been for a while now, Gavin."
"Alright. Then we'll
go." He kissed her cheek.
"Now?"
"Sure, if you want to."
"I do." She sighed.
"I don't want to stay here."
"Then we'll go."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, baby."
"They're going to name it
"They shouldn't," he
said darkly.
"It's not fair."
"I know it's not,
beautiful."
"They don't deserve to have a
little
"I know he was, love."
"It's not fair."
"No, it's not. But we have
"And so we'll leave."
"Yes." She kissed him.
"I don't want anything to happen to you either."
"I'll be okay."
"I love you, Gavin, so
much...I just don't see any reason to stay in this house."
"Then we'll leave it,
baby." He held her close.
"What about the house we had
right before we left before? Or somewhere near it?"
"Sounds good."
"And we won't have to worry
about getting killed if we walk out the front door..."
"We'll be safe again."
"And who knows...maybe
without the added stress...*we* might be able to have another baby of our
own."
"If you want that." But
Gavin was smiling widely at the thought.
"I think I could be
convinced." She replied.
He kissed her.
"I think I'll need a little
more convincing than that..." She smiled teasingly.
He kissed her eagerly this time.
"Who, me?" He grinned.
"I don't see anyone else in
here."
"Excellent news for me."
"Extremely."
