"Zach, what's up man?" Grant's voice sounded groggy like he had just woken up.
"What did you say to Bex?" I put in my wireless headset so I could safely drive and talk without waking Kait.
"Nothing special, why?" The sound of the bed sheets told me he was trying to get comfortable again.
"Just tell me what happened." I tried to keep control of my frustration.
"Well I got home and we were happy to see each other. She tried to get me to sleep with her but I told her I was tired and i just wanted to catch up on my sleep."
"What exactly did you say?"
"I wasn't in the mood-"
"Hello? She's pregnant! You don't tell a pregnant woman you're not in the mood! That makes her feel insecure and unloved." I tried not to shout.
"But she said she was okay with me sleeping for a little while. I told her we'd spend some time together later."
"This is Bex, she isn't like other women. To her emotions are a weakness, something people use to manipulate you. Do you know how hard it was for her to say that she loves you? She like me, genuine emotions aren't something we are used to showing. You're marrying someone who is like a little sister to me so you better not hurt her."
"You're married to a girl who is my sister so you better not hurt her." I could hear bed sheets rustling and him getting out of bed.
"Well my wife isn't mad at me. I love your sister more than anything in the world so i would never intentionally hurt her. You on the other hand told Bex that you don't find her attractive with her pregnant belly and swollen ankles and you would rather sleep in your big cold bed alone after almost two months of not seeing her than spending some time together in bed." I knew i was layering on the guilt but I didn't want Bex to feel that way again.
"I get it man i messed up. I feel really guilty now." Grant sighed
"Good. Do it again and you will be in a world of pain." I could hear the doorbell ringing through the phone. "Before you leave i dare you to do something romantic for Bex when she gets back. Maybe you could give her a massage or run her a bubble bath. Just do something for her."
"I will, i promise. Why doesn't Cam ever get mad at you?"
"Oh she does but we've been through too much to hold grudges against each other. Besides, i think she looks really sexy when she's pregnant."
"Gross dude! She's my sister. Goodbye."
There was a few minutes of silence of before i pulled up to the gas station. I filled up the car and drove back to our temporary home and Kaitlin slept the whole way.
I carried her into her bedroom and laid her down gently. I kissed her forehead and quietly left her room.
"How was your day?" Cammie asked as she wrapped her arms around my waist and leaned up for a kiss.
I leaned down and gave her a quick kiss before answering her question. "Our day was great, but we missed you and the boys."
"Bex said Kait was crying when she called you." Cammie looked at me suspiciously.
"What? She was tired! I put her to sleep right after Bex called and then I came home to my beautiful wife." I wrapped my arms around her waist and passionately kissed her. We pulled apart when the need for air became unbearable and I rested my forehead against hers. "I love you so much." I whispered ahainst her lips.
"Don't try and butter me up." She whispered back with her eyes still closed and her body pressed into mine so she wouldn't fall. "Bex is in the living room waiting for you." Cammie slowly opened her eyes and pulled away from me.
"I love what I do to you Mrs. Goode." I smirked as she stalked off.
"Oh shut up." She mumbled while stalking off to our room and slamming the door.
"I still don't see what she sees in you." Bex said when I walked into the living room.
"Neither do I." I said while falling into the chair beside her.
"How do you know that you love Cam?" Bex asked with a curious face.
I sighed as I looked off into space thinking about my response. "When I look at her I get so excited I feel like I'm going to throw up but at the same time I feel so afraid that it will be the last time I see her. I'm always so scared that she will leave me. She could do so much better than me but I have decided to make the most of the time she stays."
Cammie rushed into the room looking at Bex. "Grant says that he needs you home right away!"
"Is he okay?" Bex said while grabbing her jacket and purse.
"I don't know he just said it was important."
"Okay, thanks Cam." Bex kissed my cheek then got up and kissed Cammie's cheek. "I'll see you two later, give my love to the kids."
"We always do. Bye Bex." Cammie called after her. As soon as the door closed Cammie was in my lap with her arms wrapped around my neck. "I would never leave you. If anything you should be leaving me."
"I would never. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me. If I didn't have you I know I would have just given into Catherine. I owe you you my life and so much more but my love and our children will just have to suffice."
"I love you so much. I won't ever leave you as long as you don't leave me."
Before I could respond Melissa came through the door. "Someone called for a babysitter?"
"Hey Melissa!" Cammie called.
Cam POV
I had heard Zach's conversation with Bex and I wanted to talk to him without the interruption of the children.
"How is my pregnant daughter feeling?"
Melissa now referred to me as her pregnant daughter, not that I minded.
"Tired, relieved, I'm just really happy that Zach is back home." I wrapped my arms around around Zach's waist and leaned my head on his shoulder.
"We're all glad you and Grant got home safely." Melissa said directed to Zach. "Have you got their bags packed?" That question was directed towards me.
"Just take the emergency ones. They should be waking up from their nap by the time you get home and they will be hungry so you heat up Kaities bottle. Once it's warm put half of it into Matt's bottle. Split this," I handed her a container of pureed food, "into three and heat it so its warm. Feed Joe first, no bottle. When you feed him you have to hold him, he loves feeling warmth. Feed Matt next, he probably won't finish the whole bottle but that's okay just throw it out. Kait will be the hardest to feed because she is very independent and wants to do it herself so play the train game with her. Don't let then fall asleep before 7:30. If they wake up check diapers or if they want a bottle. If Joe is still crying just hold him close to you he'll calm down."
"Cammie, I've got this. It's just one night. You need to spend some time with your husband."
I had just finished putting the children in the van and I was looking for the keys.
"Thanks mom." I found them and pulled them out of the couch cushions. I handed them over to her.
"Look after my babies."
"Of course I will."
Once they were gone I walked back to the living room where I left Zach but the couch was empty.
"Babe?" I called out.
"Up here." I heard coming from the bedroom.
I walked up to the room to find Zach laying in our bed stark naked.
"Not tonight baby." I said throwing him a pair of sweatpants.
"Why? Don't you feel good? Is it the baby? Do you want to go to hospital?" He had already pulled on the pants and was frantically looking around the room.
"No baby, no. I just want to spend some time with you. I love you so much but after your conversation with Bex we need to talk."
"Anything for you."
We both laid down beside each other and talked out all our insecurities.
