35 ARE YOU SURE?
Camille hugged her parents before she boarded the plane. Her class was leaving for their senior trip. Mom don't give anybody a hard time while I'm gone. Who me? "Yes!" Tom and Camille said at the same time. She rolled her eyes and said, "Camille no boycotting, acting like a militant or doing dangerous things that will cause me grief." Ok mom, only if you promise to be nice to my dad. Christina and Tom both smiled as she finished this sentence. We love you Camille. Tom looked at Camille, call me if you need anything. They both hugged her and she rubbed her mom's stomach as she talked to the baby. See you later little newby. Camille waved as she walked with her friends to board the plane. Tom and Christina stood there until the plane headed toward the runway. He looked at Christina and said, "Are you ready to go?" Sure, but first, Bobbi wanted me to call her when Camille's plane left. As she called Bobbi, they walked through the airport.
When they left the airport, Tom took Christina to the furniture store where she had purchased furniture for the house. "What are we doing Tom?", she asked as she put her hand in his back pocket. We need to do some more shopping Sunshine. The baby will be here soon and I want us to finish the house. Tom, we only need to do the baby's room and the dining room. What about the baby's playroom Christina? Tom, we can wait on that room. Besides, we still have other small bills that we need to pay off before the baby comes. He smiled and put his arm around her shoulder. The furniture store was holding a dining room suite that she really wanted. She was waiting on Tom to give her the go-ahead to buy the furniture. He saw the dining room furniture and kissed her approvingly. "Sooo, is that a yes?", she said holding him around his waist. He told her that she had immaculate taste and their home was beautiful because of her touch. She blushed as she looked at him and said, "Thanks." Next, they looked at the furniture for the baby's room. I like the furniture in these two rooms Christina. She looked at him and smiled. Why are you smiling? Look on the back of the cribs Tom. On the back of each crib was a ticket that had "hold for Wakefield. He smiled as he looked around the room. Now this time you have to pick the furniture she told him. Do you like the furniture and the crib for both sets? "I do.", she nodded. Ok, then you won't mind if it's a surprise right? I won't mind. Tom took a picture and sent it to Camille. She chose the set and Tom paid for it. After he paid for the furniture and got a delivery date, he told Christina that Camille made the final decision. She smiled, you're spoiling her. He smiled at her comment as they left the store. Everything would be delivered in three days. Christina still did not want to add accessories to the room just yet.
After shopping they went to lunch. Are you tired Christina? Not really. What do you want to do after we leave here? She tilted her head to the side as she said, "You'll do what I want?" I will Sunshine, but you can't over exert yourself. Then, I want to go home. When they got home Tom massaged Christina's feet and back. He made juice for both of them, brought a bowl of fruit for them to eat, and insisted that she rest, but she refused. Christina went to change into her favorite, a shirt she had taken from Tom. Right now, she could barely fasten the buttons, but that wouldn't last much longer. Tom was watching TV in his room when she returned. She walked straight to him and unbuttoned his shirt and pants. Sometimes Tom wondered if Christina remembered that she was pregnant. Her appetite for making love had increased as her pregnancy progressed. He was still not comfortable when she sometimes insisted they make love. She pulled off his shirt and pushed his pants below his knees. Hey, what are you doing? She looked at him as she guided him to this chair that was in his room. He held her by the waist as she walked him backward to the chair. There was an intense look in her eyes as she planted kisses on his lips that were so heated he couldn't resist. Even during her pregnancy, he found her irresistible. She was just as beautiful now as she was before she became pregnant. He thought by now she would not want to make love, but lately it had been just the opposite. He was afraid sometimes, but in the end he always gave in to her. He tried to pull back, but she had straddled his lap and she was only wearing his shirt. His breathing became hot and heavy. He had to kiss her back. He kissed her neck and her lips. He cupped her breast in his hands and rubbed her stomach as he moaned to himself. He knew one of her favorite spots was her inner thighs. He made his way to her thighs and began to massage them He pressed her warm body, stomach and all to him. Oh damn she felt so good! " Mmm Christina!", he moaned. She kissed his lips as he tried to call her name again. He began to lose control as she rubbed his thighs and pressed herself against his arousal. No baby. "Oh yes!", she moaned. Christina we can't.
I need you now Tom, and with that she had taken him and whimpered as she did. He was more than she could take. He leaned backward in the chair to help accommodate her and her stomach. As she raised up, he followed, and she winced as he continued moving with her. Tom wanted to make sure she was not in danger. He leaned his head back on the chair and then held onto her. He held her face in his hand and kissed her till she moaned louder. "Oh god!", he rubbed his hand through his hair. Oh oui, vous vous sentez tellement bien (you feel so damn good) They moaned, whimpered, and held onto each other. Tom was so out of control until all he could do was call her name. As he held her he began to move deeper, the look on Christina's face was heavenly. Oh yes Tom. He held her and let his tongue do battle with her tongue as she continued to moan. He kissed her neck and cuddled her breast in his hand. She moved with his every beat. Christina wrapped her arms around his neck as he held her at the waist.
She could not move from his strokes, his strokes became faster and stronger. She yelled as she felt his release. She laid her head on his chest as his cries became whimpers and her body stopped trembling. He kissed her softly and rubbed her back as he began to breathe normal again. Thank you sweetheart he whispered. I love you so much. I love you, too Tom. Tom, she said softly, "You're in trouble. We are here alone for a week." Tom shook his head from side to side as she smiled at him. She smiled back and said, "This is our second honeymoon." Are you good Christina? I am now, she smiled as she put her head back on his chest . Christina, I did not know you were thinking about anything like that. I know, that's why I didn't say anything.
Tom, listen to me. Until I say I can't do this anymore or Dr. Hanley say it's dangerous, then we'll have to make a way. We're both in the medical field. We know the danger signs and if you're not comfortable, then we can discuss this with Dr, Hanley. I understand Christina, we're just getting close to your due date. Why don't you do some research on this subject and see what the studies are saying Tom. He listened to her as he held her hands and kissed each one. I think I will do that. Christina, just think, it's not dinner time and you're all out of control. You're bad girl. Maybe I am but, I guess you'll have to deal with me. He kissed her forehead and then her lips. She smiled as she got up from his lap.
Right now I think we should take a shower. Tom went with her to shower. Afterwards, he insisted that she take a nap. I'll only take one if you rest with me. She grabbed a quilt and laid on top of the bed. Christina, no clothes? She shook her head from side to side and held her arms open for him to rest with her. She covered them with a quilt and she laid on him as close as she could. They wrapped their arms around each other and actually slept for about two hours. Tom woke up when he heard the phone. He missed the call, but Camille text and said she made it safely. Tom kissed Christina as he quietly got up to check his messages. He was not on call this weekend, but he wanted to see if he had calls about his patients.
When Christina got up, he was in the backyard swimming. Why don't you come in love? She walked out to him. It's May and you're swimming. Well, it's not cold. Come put your feet in the water. She smiled as she carefully walked toward him. It was so amazing at how they melted in each others hand. Tom helped her sit on the bank as she placed her feet in the water. He paddled around in the water as he talked to her.
Their time was interrupted when her phone rang. Hello, Oh hi Bobbi. We're not doing anything now. Tom is in the pool and I have my feet in the water. Let me check and I'll call you back. Bobbi wants to know if we would like to go to the movies with them. It's up to you Christina. Do you feel up to it? "I do now." she said, smiling and nodding her head. Tom dropped his head and laughed, then he looked back at Christina. You are really amazing. Thanks Tom. So, do you want to go? Sure Sunshine. I'll call Bobbi and see what time they want us to meet them. Christina and Tom sat in the backyard for a while longer. She continued to kiss and snuggle with him on the patio. You know what Tom? What sweetheart? I don't know if it's because I'm pregnant or if it's just you, but I can't seem to get enough of you. It's like a craving. Some people crave food, some crave certain beverages, but I crave you. She kissed his fingers as he played with her fingers and talked to her. Thanks Christina. I hope you have this craving after the baby is born, because I am really in love with you and that craving would be just great for me. He held her hands as he leaned over and kissed her. He pulled her from her chair to his lap. He planted sweet short kisses on her cheeks.
You know Sunshine, maybe it's not a craving. Maybe, it's just us being in love with each other, but I'm glad you have that feeling for me. He turned her toward him and kissed her again and again and again. I love you Christina (he kisses her) Hawthorne( he kisses her again) Wakefield (she kissed him). "This is so crazy.", he said. "No this is heaven." she said, as she continued kissing him. We really need to get dress if we are going to the movie theater. She held Tom's hand as they walked inside. Tom and Christina were able to get dressed without incident.
They met Bobbi and Steve at the movie. Why do you look so different Christina? I don't know. What do you mean? It's something about you today. Maybe it's just my pregnancy. Have you heard from Camille since she left? "No, I haven't.", she said hesitantly. And you haven't called her? What has kept you from calling her? "Yea Christina what have you been doing?", Tom teased. Bobbi, Camille's plane made it safely. She text me a few hours ago. Christina looked at him shocked and speechless. She called when you were sleep dear. Christina looked at him. Tom! Sorry, I forgot to tell you. Bobbi laughed and said, "I don't want to imagine what's going on while Camille is gone. Tom and Christina looked at each other and smiled. "Let's go inside.", Christina said. Besides, you all should be nice like Steve. Bobbi looked at Tom and asked, "Is she out of control?" He nodded as he said, "like you've never seen." During the movie Christina could barely keep her hands to herself. He smiled at her and held her hand through the entire movie.
After the movie, the couples went to dinner. When they got home, Christina and Tom decided to go for a short walk in the neighborhood. "Are you tired?", Tom asked her. Not really, but I would like to take a bath and relax after our walk. You would? Um Um she nodded. He held her hand as they parked the SUV and walked down the drive. Christina held on to Tom's arm as they walked. Christina? Yes Tom. I'm glad you're happy. You are happy aren't you Sunshine? Um Um she nodded again. Tom? Yes, Am I bugging you? Would you tell me if you needed space? You're not bugging me and I wouldn't tell you that I needed space because I am totally, absolutely enjoying every bit of you. Seriously? Yea seriously. Christina? Yes. Let's go home and snuggle in my room. For real. Yea. Christina undressed while Tom made bath water. They soaked as they had an enjoyable conversation with each other. Christina laughed as Tom told her about some of the incidents he and his friends did in college.
Christina? Yes Tom. I am really really excited that you are carrying our child. I can't wait for you to have the baby. He was stroking her face as he talked to her. I don't know if I'm going to spoil you more or the baby. Tom! That's is so sweet. She smiled and turned to kiss his cheek. She started to say something about the pregnancy, but instead she made another comment. I don't think you can spoil me any more than you have already. Some days I wake up and I think I'm dreaming. Then I see you and know everything is so real. Christina began to choke as she continued to talk. I cherish all the time we spend together. I know Camille is leaving the house to go to school. Sometimes I feel you all are still scared because of the sadness I experienced earlier. I know I am ok. I don't want you to be afraid and think that you all have to be so delicate with me. If you want me to see a counselor, I will, but it's really not necessary.
Tom kissed her and pulled her tighter to him. Suddenly, he said, "Let's get out." He helped her out of the tub and dried her body. I know you are not handicapped, but I love doing things for you. They put on comfortable clothes and went into Tom's room. Come sit with me Sunshine. Christina sat in the chair with Tom. Tom continued to hug Christina as she snuggled under a blanket. Are you cold? She shook her head side to side saying no. I just like cover, it seems so cozy. Christina, I don't think you need help, but I do wonder sometimes if there's something I should be doing to help you. If you tell me you're ok, I'll believe you. If you want to have a counselor come to the house and talk to us, we can do that. I'm all about making sure you're ok. I can do counseling if it will make you and Camille feel better. I don't want you two to be afraid when you all leave or be afraid that I'm going to become sad again. I might get sad sometimes when I think about Camille leaving, but I think it's normal. She's my first born, my baby. So Tom, you talk to Camille and tell me what will make you two feel comfortable. He kissed her on her head, but he didn't answer. They watched TV and played the connect Four game Tom had on the TV. When Christina went to sleep that night, she slept better than she had for quiet a while. Tom also noticed how differently she slept .
