Somehow Lilly had demanded that Scotty take a personal vacation by himself, she knew that he needed to get out of his head for just a little bit. Since their baby wasn't due until four months from now, Lilly had wanted her husband to relax.

Instead Scotty hit it up in Las Vegas with both Vera and Jefferies, though he didn't gamble that much since his family was about to grow some more. While lounging by the pool, Scotty tried to allow himself to relax; but somehow never regretted the tattoos that were inscribed on each of his upper arms. In a way he felt proud to be a dad of two little girls, whom he loved so much.

While he was in Vegas, Lilly was becoming extremely moody by how her body was changing. She hated having huger breasts; and scretch marks to boot. Although Scotty had comments how he had liked her with bigger ones, she still didn't feel sexy until her old body had returned. For now Lilly sat there wishing that she didn't have to eat like a hog.

Somehow Scotty's vacation was cut short, when he returned to Philly seeing how his wife was becoming extremely depressed over her weight. He knew that during her pregnancy with Melissa, Lilly had felt the same way; and even called him one night asking if he could come over.

"Lil, you're not going to be pregnant forever".

She sighed, " That's easy for you to say isn't it, all you had to do was spill yourself inside of me", groaning while rubbing cocoa butter onto her swelling abdomen, " Now I have psychopath kicking machine inside of me".

He chuckled in amusement, but Lilly then threw a bottle at him, "I'm almost six months Scotty, it's not going to be fun to push a bowling ball out of me. Of course you don't have to worry about that do you"?

Scotty stood there ready to take some control, "Lil you aren't unattractive, and I always thought you were beautiful while pregnant".

"Save for a hallmark card, Scotty", she snapped.

However Lilly had continued to rave on about her weight, complaining that the scale was now against her. When Scotty made the joke about it breaking; he now found himself sleeping on the couch. Somehow he awoke to hear the humming from the air conditioner; knowing that it was coming from their upstairs bedroom.

Rushing up there, he found Lilly lying there still fanning herself.

"Shut it off Lil, its freezing outside", he said now shivering.

Lilly then opened up a bag of cheddar popcorn, "No I'm hot, Scotty".

"Too bad", before shutting off the AC and opening up the window, where a cold, icy breeze blew into the room, "That better"?

She sighed, "No, I'm still hot", hating the way her body was acting now. Plus now the baby was becoming pretty restless inside of her, "This better not be a boy inside of me".

He chuckled, "It could either be a girl or a boy", before she threw a pillow at him.

"Whatever it is, better arrive soon", she grumbled, "I'm sick of eating for two".

Upon sitting down on the bed, Scotty now had decided that it was best for him to tell Lilly what he was planning to do. Besides he knew that in the long run this would be good thing, "I set up an appointment to have vasectomy, in two weeks".

Lilly looked up, "Why, you're still young Scotty"?

"After this one", placing his hand on her stomach, "We're not having any more, and I don't want to you worry when we have sex, that you have a possibility of me knocking you up", taking responsibility that this was the only logical thing to do.

She shook her head in acceptance, "You would really do that"?

"Yeah, three kids are enough Lil. How many of them do you really want"?

Upon seeing her face, Scotty knew that by him doing so would benefit them in the long run. Plus the fact, that their sex life could remain the same except now she wouldn't be able to get pregnant. For now Scotty had to keep Lilly calm since she wasn't enjoying her pregnancy one bit.

"You did this two times before Lil, gave me two beautiful girls", taking her hand into his, "I never regretted donating for you", seeing her lips forming a smile.

Lilly then let out a breath, "We're you thinking about me, when you did that in that room", and not knowing if back then Scotty really loved her. He shook his head, but then his thoughts then ran someplace eyes, "Was Melissa conceived in a lab or in you"?

"Inside of me, I was inseminated remember", as Scotty gently rubbed her stomach feeling their baby's movements as well, "You ever feel weird about you carrying my kid"?

"Sort or at first, but I still knew that we both wanted to become parents", before feeling his lips kissing her neck before trailing down her chest. Lilly moaned before her senses came back, "What are you doing"?

Scotty looked up, "If I didn't find you attractive would be still sleeping with you; pregnancy doesn't change that", before hearing her speak, "How sexy do you think I am, right now".

"Very", kissing the space between her breasts, as Lilly moaned softly. She could feel his tongue romancing all over; while she started feeling even more turning on. Being careful, Lilly then pushed him onto his back; while exploring his body.

"Didn't know that you were into tattoos", she commented while toying with chest. Scotty breathed out heavily, "I'm proud to be a dad", he said while grabbing a hold of Lilly, pulling her down while their kissed passionately.

He breathed out harder through his nose, while whispering something into her ear. Within in one breath, one heartbeat; Lilly began moving harder on top of him. Scotty remained extremely vocal but was now speaking in Spanish; which always had turned her on.

While their bodies grew saturated with sweat, the kept up with their movements. Lilly felt herself growing closer but tried to hold it back; while her pulse quickened even more. She knew that having sex did in fact help with her moods, especially since she had a very supportive and loving husband; whom right now was pleasuring her to now end.

As their voices grew louder, Lilly grunted wanting to climax but was having a hard time holding it back. Somehow when she finally did; Scotty followed as well before seeing her head now resting down on his chest, while lying on herside.

"Much better", he asked.

Lilly then released a breath, "Baby's kicking, probably hears my heart beating fast", while hearing the quickening thumps coming from Scotty's heart. In fact now she did feel better, but knew she preferred to lie here with him when she was much thinner.

"Don't dress," he whispered softly, "I do find you beautiful this way", rubbing her bare back, "You are one of the women who actually look good pregnant".

Somehow Scotty then released another breath, as he then spoke, "There was a reason why I didn't come into the room, after you had been shot", seeing Lilly now facing him, "I wished that Ed would have seen me so I could have taken the bullet".

She shook her head, "You would have been messed up even more than I was", and seeing that even now her husband was strong, "I don't think about it anymore".

"I felt guilty Lil, for not helping you with those nightmares", he said, "Instead I wasted my time on that redhead".

Lilly could see that Scotty always took blame for everything, "Maybe it's just how things played out, but you've changed a lot. Being a Dad did that to you, you spend more time with the girls than at work".

He smile softly, "and that's a bad thing"?

"No but you aren't thrashing down child molesters or suspects. I think your anger problems have gone away, but I think I've gotten stronger from being with you over the years".

Scotty was so lost in her blue eyes, that it was hard to speak but knew that all of his fighting was well worth the battle, however nothing was compared to what was about to happen with Scotty.
