"Ashley, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it for you. I know how busy you are…just leave the paperwork with me."

"I don't know, the last one you took care of disappeared, ouch!" She instinctively withdrew.

"Ashley, you had something to give me?" Her hand stretched out.

"Well now…that wasn't so hard was it?" She laughed as she ran her hand along his chin. "A firstborn, I can smell it and she licked her lips and such a pretty one, don't worry baby, I can't keep you long as you're the lucky one that is protected from me, but let's enjoy our time together shall we, well when you're awake that is."
