Chapter 10
That day went rather uneventfully, Kyle was preoccupied anyway, Lily was coming home today and he just couldn't wait. As usual he stopped by early that morning and during Lunch when it finally came time to change he almost ran to his office and back to where Lily was, he signed the discharge papers and helped her into a wheel chair, she still wasn't allowed to put pressure on her ankle.
That night Kyle was doing everything for her
"Kyle" she said stopping him "I have crutches and a wheelchair, between the two I can do some stuff myself" she sat him down and kissed him passionately "I missed you so much" she said
"Me too" he said with a yawn
"You should get to bed, with all the work you do and with me, you must be exhausted" she said and kissed him, he nodded and lifted her up gently, she squealed and said "What are you doing?"
"Taking you to bed with me"
"Kyle" she giggled, he dropped her on the bed gently and began kissing her, what they continued to do was nobody's business except they had a little trouble, what with her broken ankle and all.
The next morning Kyle woke up with a numb arm and a warm body pressed against his, he smiled to himself and held her closer resting his hands on her stomach, as if the twins knew their daddy they began to kick. Lily woke up shortly after that and rolled over to look at him
"Don't you have to go to work today?"
"It's Saturday and I don't work on the weekends and if I remember correctly I promised you that we could go baby shopping, put a catalogue of what we need so people can buy it for us" she laughed
"Can we begin on the room too?"
"We have all weekend, plus now that you are in your third trimester you should consider having a baby shower too"
"Pretty much my only family is you, the twins and your cousins and aunt"
"Well they would come if you asked them, why don't we talk about this tomorrow?"
"OK"
"How about a bath?"
"Sounds good" Kyle helped Lily into the bath leaving her cast out of the water and began to get ready himself, after a wash and breakfast for both of them they got into the car and went of to go bay shopping. They put a catalogue of what they needed for the baby available on the Internet so the family could buy it for them and went off to Lunch
"What's next?" Lily asked after they had finished Lunch
"Why don't we go to a hardware store and get some paint, stencils and whatever else we need for getting the room together" he said standing up and grabbing the wheelchair
"Do you want pink?" he asked pointing to the paint colours,
"Why don't we keep the colours gender neutral for the room?" She said apprehensively
"Why?"
"Um, in case any more come along later"
"Oh, right" Kyle had no idea that she was already thinking of more children, these two weren't even born yet "OK" They chose a nice cream colour for the walls and decided to add small things like pink curtains and lights.
When they got home Kyle put all their paint and room gear into the nursery and went back to Lily in the dining room, they had dinner before going to bed. The next morning after the award bathing and breakfast Kyle wheeled Lily into the soon to be nursery which he had covered with sheets to protect everything from the paint that didn't need painting. He handed Lily some paint and a brush for her to start and Kyle began on the roof and higher places, at one stage Kyle was painting the roof right above Lily and he dripped right into her lap
"Kyle!" she said
"What?"
"Look," she said showing him her lap they both burst into fits of laughter
"Sorry Lil"
"I guess it is kinda funny," she said through giggles. By lunch they had finished painting and had begun putting things together. The baby shower was scheduled for a Saturday two weeks before the twins were due and the whole Hartford clan were coming till the twins came. Eventually after a hard day they both fell into a peaceful and needed sleep.
