Red loved being able to sleep with his wife cuddled in his arms, her baby bump nudged in his stomach. It reminded him of how lucky he was to have the family that he had, which included the five dumb asses that Eric had befriended. But what made him feel like the luckiest man on the planet was when he could feel his twin babies kick. Every once in a while, he would be woken up by said kicks and on rare occasions, his wife would be asleep. That night was one of those rare occasions. He was never a heavy sleeper, his two kids had gotten him into that habit, so it wasn't hard to wake him up and with how much his wife's stomach was cuddled into his, it was hard not to feel every move of his babies.
Another kick was felt against his stomach and Red looked down at Kitty's stomach and he smiled to himself. He let his hands wonder to her stomach, happy to have a silent moment without anyone watching him with his unborn babies. He sat there for a minute just thinking to himself until he scooted down in the bed he shared with his wife and placed a soft kiss against Kitty's stomach. He moved the flannel button up shirt of his Kitty was wearing and placed his hands back on her protruding belly.
"Hi, babies," he said softly, careful not to wake his wife up. "It's your daddy. I just wanted to tell you that I already love you so much," he said. He planted yet another kiss against Kitty's bare stomach, his hands still protectively placed on her baby bump. Just then, Kitty woke up. She had woken up just in time to hear her husband tell their babies that he loved them. She smiled at the image in front of her and she ran her fingers through the hair that was left on his head. Red hadn't realized his wife had woken up so he looked at her and blushed.
"Red Forman," she said, her smile widening at Red blushing. "You really couldn't get any cuter, even if you tried," she added. A smirk appeared on Red's face as he scooted back up in bed so he was eye level with Kitty. Kitty placed a soft, loving kiss on his lips as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in as close as her baby bump would allow her. "Did they wake you up again?" she asked, breaking the happy silence that had fallen over them. Red nodded his head and he placed one of his hands on her belly. "You really should be nice to your daddy, you two," Kitty said to the babies in her stomach.
"No, you two need to be nice to your mommy," Red said, a smile appearing on his already happy face. Kitty looked up at Red and just laughed at the conversation they where having with her baby bump.
"I'm not sure if these babies will ever know what hit them when they're born," she said. Red just laughed.
"I'm not sure either, especially with the dumb asses that live in our basement," he replied. Kitty sternly looked at her husband and then broke out into her famous laugh. Red just looked at her like she was the most beautiful woman in the world. He really was the luckiest man alive to have a wife like Kitty. He wasn't sure how he managed to get her to agree to marry him, but he never took her for granted, even if it seemed like it. Kitty recognized that look immediately.
"Stop looking at me like that," she said.
"Like what?" Red asked, knowing exactly what she was going to say. He just wanted to hear her say it.
"I don't know, like that," she said. She loved how much this pregnancy had calmed her husband down. Red just rolled his eyes and kissed Kitty's forehead.
"I can't help it, you're the most beautiful woman in the world," he said soothingly. Now it was Kitty's turn to blush.
"Stop it," she said as she let out a girlish giggle.
"Okay, okay," Red said as he also let out a laugh. He wrapped both arms around his wife and pulled her into him again. "Go to sleep, now, sweetie," he added. "You need your sleep." Kitty nuzzled Red's broad chest, smelling his familiar scent. She always felt so safe in his embrace.
"I love you, Red Forman," Kitty said sleepily, her eyes fluttering close.
"I love you too, Kitty Sigurdson," Red replied. He rarely ever used her maiden name, only when he was comfortable with the situation he was in.
