Me and the twins were then checked by a large medical team; and we were thankfully all ok. However I was advised that I would need to stay for a couple of hours for observation. I decided that I was going to have nap; however I wanted Edward and Isabelle to be with me. It felt weird at the fact that I had just given birth and I wasn't currently holding a baby. So with this thought in mind I asked Ben to ring his parents to bring our children so I could cuddle them. He lovingly agreed to do this for me; my beautiful, patience and supportive husband.
"Ben-" I stated after I watched him hang up on his mother and slid his phone back into his sleep shorts.
"Aha?" He replied as we cuddled back together.
"I want to run something by you" I stated as I started to wonder about how he was about to react to what I was about to suggest.
"Oh" he muttered. "What?" He questioned eagerly.
"When I'm good to go down there-" I began as I started to feel my stomach flutter with nerves.
"Yes?" He answered and I watched as a playful glance entered his eyes.
"Should we try for another baby?" I questioned. I know that this is probably the last thing that I should be thinking about given what I have just done. But the next baby I was going to give birth to would be different - they would be Ben's baby. Yes I know that we have Edward and Isabelle but I knew that at some point we may have more children - why not now?
"What?" He asked in shock.
"We don't have to" I stated; even though I was ready to give Ben more children Ben might not be - and this is something that we both would need to speak about at length.
"No Mal" he replied. "I just can't believe that you have just given birth to twins and now you are thinking about having another baby" he gasped incredulously.
"Yes" I nodded. "But this is YOUR baby; it's different" I urged.
"Oh Mal" he breathed and he crushed his lips against mine and we started to fall into a long and loving make out session. The longer the kiss went on the more heated it got; I slowly cupped his face in both of my hands as I felt Ben's arms tighten around me. I moaned against his mouth when his tongue slid against mine; we broke apart for a few seconds to quickly take a breath before our lips found each other once more. We started to kiss quickly and passionately and then it started to turn very wet and messy with our teeth and tongue clanging together. After kissing like this for what felt like a blissful eternity, we pulled away and smiled happily at each other.
"It's ok if you want to wait" I offered as we rested our foreheads against each other.
"No Mal" he urged. "I want to try for another baby too" he admitted.
"Really?" I questioned in shock.
"Yes Mal" he nodded. "I love you so much" he advised as he brushed his nose against mine. "I want to put more little Mal's into the world" I grinned.
"Or little Ben's" I teased.
"Yes" he chuckled. "Or little Ben's" I repeated as we cuddled back together. I then started to get excited at the fact that we were going to have another baby together. Yes pregnancy took its toll on me but giving Ben more children meant a great deal to me. I loved the fact that I was the only woman who could do this for Ben; and I couldn't wait to meet our new addition - whenever they may appear in our lives.
