Letting out a huff, you turned onto your side and draped a leg over your sleeping husband. Seconds later you were turning onto your back, putting a pillow behind your knees, then turning again. And now you had to use the restroom.
As you were struggling to sit up it woke Nick. “Would you just hold still. I’ve barely slept.” Nick grumbled
You rubbed your 9 month pregnant swollen belly, “Well excuse me. I’m just a little pregnant right now”, you shot back at him. When you emerged from the restroom, you grabbed your pillow and yanked the blanket off Nick.
“Cariña. What are you doing? ” Nick asked sounding annoyed. “Why did you take the blanket?”
“Sleeping on the couch. I wouldn’t want to disturb you anymore my love.” You said over your shoulder. You heard Nick mumbling something in Spanish. The words you could understand were stubborn woman.
After putting the blanket and pillow on the couch, you clicked in the TV. Lowing yourself onto the couch, you attempted to get comfortable. Nick appeared in the doorway, shirtless, with his pajama pants hanging off his hips. You stared for a moment in appreciation. “I am NOT stubborn, Nicholas.”
Nick raised a questioning brow, but wisely didn’t say anything. He shuffled over to the couch. Taking your feet into his lap, he gently massaged them, “I’m sorry.”
“I know, me too.” Sighing, and running your hand over your belly. Nick continued to massage your feet.
“How about some chamomile tea? I know that helps you relax.” He gave you a small smile.
“Tea would be nice. Thank you.” You grinned sleepily at him.
When Nick returned you had your eyes closed. He put the mug down on the end table. Leaning over he kissed your head. “I love so much, mi amor” he whispered.
“I love you too Nicky” you mumbled, not opening your eyes.
“Let’s get you to bed. I dont like you sleeping on the couch.” Nick stated, taking your hand.
“No. I’m comfortable here.” You fluttered your eyes open. “Go back to bed, Nick. You need to rest too.” You closed your eyes again.
You heard him move around the room, the TV shut off and the couch sunk as he sat down, placing your feet in his lap. “Good night, Y/N.”
“Hmm..” was all you could say before finally falling asleep.
