Chapter 28

Two weeks have come and gone Marlena stays off her feet for most of the day. Belle and Shawn continue to stop by and see her while John stays at home with her as much as he possibly can. Though Marlena has had some minor cramping it wasn't warrant enough to bring her back to the hospital for a few days. John and Marlena are in bed next to each other its early morning, the sheets are tangled between the two bodies after making love. John held Marlena close to his body as they discussed the twins again.

"Well you made it you're 12 weeks three days pregnant. Is it safe enough to say that the babies won't be in any danger?"

"Well I suppose it is but I still have a very long time to go and anything can happen in that time."

"Okay well can I be happy that the morning sickness has all but disappeared?"

"I'm happy it's not as severe as it was so I guess its okay for you to be happy about it."

"I can't believe how lucky I am. I married my soul-mate we have one beautiful daughter we share and two more children on the way. Can life get any more perfect then what it is at this very moment?"

"I don't think it can how lucky are we John?"

"So very lucky, I wish we could stay in bed for the rest of the day and make passionate love until we fall asleep in each other's arms. But I have to get back to work I left Kate in charge for to long after all it is my company she just is the vice president."

"I know John besides I can go back to work today. Belle and Shawn are stopping by after they are done working they want us to have dinner with them. Do you think that we can go?"

"I don't see why not I'll let Belle know when I get into work. I'm happy that she's a better cook then her mother."

"Hey!"

Marlena says as she tosses a pillow at John hitting him in the face. John as usual giggles and kisses her playfully on the cheek climbing out of bed and heading to the shower.

"Are you going to join me in the shower so we can 'conserve water'?"

"I'll be there in a minute I have to find my robe its somewhere on the bed."

"Doc come on we are going to take a shower you don't need to get you robe on its just going to have to come off."

"Oh right, I keep forgetting that Belle and Brady are grown and out of the penthouse. Do you remember when they walked in on us on Christmas morning abut 10 years ago? I just got my robe on and you just pulled your pants on. If it were a few seconds later they would have saw everything."

"Thank goodness they learned to knock after that. Can you imagine how mortified they would be if they saw us in our glory."

John asks with a laugh.

"Lucky for them we were a few seconds ahead of them."

Marlena smiles at the memory and finds her robe pulling it on and headed to the bathroom with John to share a shower.
