Today's story is written by Tara tjhadlow and follows on from Day 1!
So here's Part 2... (Small smut warning for the end..)
Andy woke up first on Christmas Eve, she wasn't feeling too well but just put it down to the pregnancy. The more she thought about it, she still couldn't wrap her brain around the fact that she was going to have twins. She'd been a lot more drained with this pregnancy, but hadn't had as much morning sickness as she did with Savannah so it took her a little off guard that she needed to run to the bathroom to be sick. Robert felt her get out of bed quickly so he got up and followed her in to the bathroom. He knelt down next to her, held her hair out of her face and rubbed her back.
"Hey baby, I've got you. It's been ages since you've been sick, does everything else feel ok?"
Andy finished throwing up and turned to sit with her back against the wall and brought her knees in to her chest. Robert sat in front of her, rubbing her thighs and leaning his forehead against hers.
"Yeah I feel fine other than this, I'll be alright in a minute."
"Here, drink this" he said as he gave her a glass of water.
"Thanks babe. Let me just brush my teeth and I'll come back to bed."
"Okay, call me if you need me."
Andy drank the glass of water, brushed her teeth and tied her hair in a loose, messy bun. She opened the en suite door to her husband setting down some tea on her bedside table and climbing in to bed. She pulled the covers back and climbed in next to him, moving straight in to his open arms and buried her head in his chest.
"Happy Christmas Eve babe" She said, muffled by his body.
"Happy Christmas Eve to you too, my love" He replied, stroking her back and kissing her head. "Do you feel a bit better?"
"Yeah, much, thank you. I just want to cuddle for a bit longer until the baby wakes up."
"Good, you know, we're going to have to stop calling her the baby soon, she's almost 4 and there'll be two other tiny humans around before long."
"Nope, she'll always be my baby, whether she likes it or not" Andy said, chuckling quietly.
"I love you, and our little family, so very much."
"I love you too, I wouldn't be able to do any of this without you, we're so grateful we have such an amazing Husband and Daddy looking out for us."
Robert looked in to her eyes, stroked the stray hair from her face, cupped her cheek with his hand and planted a soft kiss on her lips.
"Today is going to be so good, I can't wait." He said whilst tracing circles on his wife's back. "I think I'm more excited than when I was a kid myself."
A little pitter patter of feet could be heard coming down the hall as Savannah came running in to their room, Mr Floppy tightly in one hand, her water cup in the other. Her whacky bed head she had going on made both Robert and Andy let out a chuckle. She came right up to the bed and tried to climb on.
"Good Morning Princess, let's go potty quickly before we get in to Mummy and Daddy's bed." Andy said, getting up and taking Savannah to the toilet.
They finished quickly and Andy lifted her on to the bed where she quickly got under the covers and nestled her way next to Robert, stealing the spot Andy was just in. Robert looked at her and shrugged his shoulders. "Sorry Babe, munchkin got there first" He said, smirking. "What can I say, I'm irresistible to my girls."
Andy picked up her pillow and lightly hit him with it, giggling, before getting back in to bed and cuddling up to their daughter.
"Mummy stay me day?" Savannah asked.
"Yes Baby, both Mummy and Daddy get to stay with you today!"
"Yay! And cookies?"
"We absolutely can make cookies today, but first, we're going in to town to see Santa and his reindeer, and go on the funfair rides! Then, Abuelo, Uncle Luke and Uncle Ryan are coming round for dinner. Does that sound like a good day?"
"Yay!" Savannah shouted as she tried to get up and out of bed.
"Hey, hang fire Mami, I need to sort that bed head of yours, come and sit in my lap." Andy pulled Savannah back in front of her, took a comb from the bedside table and began to sort out her hair. She braided two plaits and popped a red bow in front of each one. "Ahh, beautiful!"
Robert and Savannah started playing their tickling game in bed so Andy took the opportunity to drink the tea Robert had made for her earlier. Savannah accidentally kicked Andy in the belly which caused her to yell out.
"Me sowwy Mummy" Savannah said quickly, starting to get upset because she hadn't meant to hurt her.
"It's Ok baby, you just have to remember to be careful of Mummy too, Ok?"
"Yep"
"Hey, are you ok? They ok?" Robert asked, concern evident in his voice.
"Yeah babe, I think we're fine. I'm gonna go get dressed and ready whilst you two... do that" she laughed and gestured with her hands at what they were already doing.
"Take it easy today, please."
"Robert, no. I'm only 14 weeks don't you dare start with that crap already. I'm not sick or unable to do anything I normally would, I'm just...pregnant!" She said, whisper-yelling the last part.
Robert threw his hands up in surrender, realising he'd definitely said the wrong thing. "I know, I know.. I just want you to be ok, I worry too much, I know, I'm sorry."
Andy walked round to his side of the bed and leant down to kiss him. She stood back up and continued towards the closet. "We're fine, and we love you for caring."
"I love you!" He said as she closed the door to the bathroom where she'd be doing her hair.
"Hey, Princess, shall we go and make a special breakfast for Mummy before we go out?"
"Yeah! Me moothie? She asked, tilting her head. Something she always does when she's trying to get her own way.
"We can make you a smoothie, of course! But I was thinking more along the lines of Christmas Eve pancakes?!" He grinned. "Let's go."
Andy tied her hair in a wavy ponytail, she popped on a pair of fluffy thermal black leggings and a red Christmas top and made her way downstairs to find the others.
"Mummy! Bekfast!" Savannah yelled as she saw her emerge from the stairs.
"You made breakfast Mami? For me? Muchas gracias, Mi Preciosa" She gushed as she went over to kiss her baby all over.
"Hey, I helped too" Robert teased, pretending to be jealous of all the attention.
Andy sashayed over to where he was stood, pinched his chin with her thumb and forefinger, pulling his head down to meet her gaze and kissed him. "No need to be jealous my love, you get your thank you... later." She fluttered her eyelashes and twirled around, picking up her smoothie on the way. "You two monsters need to get changed so we can go and see...Santa!" She had the best surprise expression on her face whist telling Savannah.
"Daddy, we be fast!" She yelled as she ran towards the stairs.
When they were all dressed and ready to go, they packed the car with coats, hats, gloves and scarves as it was bitterly cold outside. It wasn't raining though, which by Andy's standards meant it was a perfect day, regardless of the temperature. They drove to the centre of town where there was a little Christmas market set up which had an ice rink, a reindeer sleigh ride, some carnival rides and 'The North Pole Toy Workshop' where Santa was seeing the last of the children before he began delivering presents that night. Savannah's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree when she saw the pretty lights and the ice rink.
"Mummy, Mummy, me go! Me go!"
"Yes Princess, you get to have a go. Daddy's going to go skating with you and Mummy's going to take lots of pictures to show everyone later."
Andy helped her to put her skates on and then stood her up by the side of the rink. It was so funny, she couldn't really walk in the skates let alone try and do any actual skating.
"Bless her, she looks like Bambi learning to walk!" Andy giggled.
"This ought to be fun" Robert muttered as he took her little hand and got ready to go on the ice with her. He used to play hockey, so fortunately, he was a very confident, hoping he wouldn't fall over whilst bending down and holding on to Savannah.
"Both look at me before you go on" Andy said, her camera at the ready. "Say 'Christmas'!" She took their picture and then waved them off on to the rink.
Savannah managed to glide pretty well whilst being pulled by her Dad but couldn't quite co-ordinate her feet well enough to do any proper skating. They knew she'd be too young for that anyway but they thought she'd enjoy the experience nonetheless. After she'd fallen a couple of times and was starting to get cold and wet, she asked to be finished, so Robert lifted her over the barrier to Andy and went for a quick skate around the big Christmas tree by himself.
"Woah! Daddy fast!" She yelled, watching him go around and around.
"He sure is baby, you'll be like that one day when you're bigger, I promise! Shall we go and get some hot chocolate and go for a sleigh ride with Rudolph and his friends?"
"Yeah pease Mummy."
She handed Robert his shoes as he came off the rink and began to gather their things together." Man, I forgot how good that feels!"
"Hmm, looks good too!" Andy said flirtatiously as she winked at him.
He smiled at her and pulled her in to a side hug. "Where to now?" He asked.
"Hot coclate and sleigh!" Savannah tried to say.
"Hot chocolate and a sleigh ride? Sounds fantastic!" He exclaimed as he scooped her up from the floor. He held Andy's hand and the three of them went to get a hot drink.
The size of the whipped cream on top of the hot chocolates had Savannah's eyes bursting, she took and sip and got it all over her little nose. Robert used that as the perfect opportunity for a family Christmas photo. They were sat in the back of the sleigh, twinkling lights surrounded them and they were all cuddled up in blankets. Andy knew this would be a core memory and couldn't wait to remind her about it when she was older.
When it was time to see Santa, Savannah started to get a little nervous. They were queuing amongst hundreds of Christmas trees, covered head to toe in fake snow. Candy canes lined the path and icicle lights could be seen the whole way round. As they neared the front of the line, she was watching all the other little boys and girls closely as they each went and told him what they wanted for Christmas.
"What are you gonna ask Santa for baby?" Robert asked, squeezing her little hand to reassure her.
She didn't answer, just continued to watch everyone. When it was her turn, she wasn't sure if she wanted to go and at first she hid behind Robert's legs.
"Do you want me to come with you Mija?" Andy asked and she nodded her head straight away. "Come on then, let's go and give him a big hug."
After Andy had hugged him, Savannah started to get more confident and went in for a hug herself. He asked her a few questions about herself like how old she was, and if she had seen his reindeer. When she was comfortable enough with him, she sat on his knee and Santa asked her what she'd like for Christmas.
"Baby!"
"You'd like a baby would you, a dolly?" Santa clarified.
"No thank-oo, baby Mummy's tummy pease!" She corrected him.
Just as she said that, Robert had taken a picture and managed to capture the utter surprise in Andy's expression which caused him to burst out laughing. Santa looked up to Andy to see if this would be a potential Christmas present... Andy gently nodded along.
"Well, Princess Savannah, if you're really, really good today, Santa might just be able to get you a baby to come home soon, not yet but soon!"
"Baby! Thank-oo!" She said enthusiastically as she jumped down from his knee, taking the little gift he had given her.
The trio walked over to the cotton candy stall together, Andy and Robert both occasionally glancing at each other and smiling, they were so happy watching the magic of Christmas through their daughter's eyes. Once they got to the stall, Savannah chose a cone of cotton candy whilst Andy and Robert shared a cinnamon toffee apple.
"Well, at least we know she'll be happy about the imminent arrival..." Andy said cautiously, stroking her belly.
"That will make telling her tomorrow so much easier." Robert said with relief.
They enjoyed the rest of the festival, Robert took Savannah on the few funfair rides she was tall enough to go on and they took so many pictures to share with their loved ones. Andy enjoyed watching from the sidelines and treated herself to a non-alcoholic spiced apple cider whilst she waited in the cold and picked out some cookies for Savannah . She didn't think they'd have time to bake any when they got home and she felt guilty that it was the one thing she'd asked to do this morning.. but also knew there'd be no complaining about the alternative plans they'd had.
A few minutes later she could see Robert walking towards her holding their daughter who had cuddled right in to his neck.
"Is someone getting a little tired?" She asked as they got closer and she held out Mr Floppy for her.
"No Mummy, play!"
"I think that's enough for today baby, why don't we go home and take a nap?"
"No!" Savannah started kicking as she yelled in Robert's arms, a true sign that she was overtired.
"Uhh, I do not think that behaviour is going to get us anything we want now is it? Don't kick Daddy that's not nice."
"Hey, Vannah, remember what Santa said? You have to be good today or he won't come and leave you presents."
Crying now, she put her arms out to Andy and took Mr Floppy. "Me.. sorry... me...seepy" she whimpered in between cries.
"I know you're sleepy baby, come on, let's go back home and take a nap before everyone comes over for dinner. Can Daddy carry you to the car for Mummy? You're getting heavy and Mummy doesn't feel too great."
"Mhmm" She mumbled as Robert took her back from Andy and gave his wife a concerned look.
Robert buckled her in the car and then got in the driver's side "Andy, what's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing babe I just feel a bit rough, I might take a nap with the baby when we get home if that's alright?"
"Of course! You don't have to ask me, silly, I'll get started on dinner prep whilst my girls rest, ok?" He leant over and gave her a quick kiss.
"Thank you."
Both Andy and Savannah fell asleep in the car on the way home, so Robert carried them up to bed, Andy first, and put them both in their bedroom.
He snapped a quick picture of them cuddled together and pulled the door to as he went downstairs. Just as he was starting to get everything out the fridge for dinner, the doorbell rang so he went to see who it was.
"Pruitt, hey how are you?"
"I'm alright thanks Son, I thought I'd come and give you a hand with dinner. You ok? it's rather quiet in here."
"The girls are sleeping upstairs," he chuckled.
"Ah I see, all 3 of them?"
"3 of them, sir?" He asked perplexed.
Pruitt just gave him a look that said 'I'm not stupid,' "yes, Vannah, Andy and the baby."
"Wait you know?"
"Of course I know! Andrea's been different for weeks now, a father knows his own daughter, Son."
Robert put his hands up in surrender "fair enough, how long have you known?"
"About a month... she's not subtle, my daughter." He chuckled.
"I suppose not. Well I guess that's tonight's game out the window."
"Game?" Pruitt asked, intrigued.
"Go and check the tree..."
Pruitt wondered over to the tree and took a good look, put his hand out to the bauble that read 'Bump's First Christmas.' "Ahh, so you're not keeping it a secret anymore?"
"Well we just wanted you guys here tonight to know, Andy was feeling a bit anxious in work with no one knowing so we thought we ought to let the cat out of the bag with the Chief at least. We thought we'd wait and see tonight who notices it first... And you'll never guess what Vannah asked Father Christmas for today..."
"A baby in Mummy's tummy?"
"Yes, that exactly! Wait, how did you know that, are you some sort of secret mind reader or something?" He nervously chuckled.
"She told me that's what she wanted last week, and I told her to ask Santa because I knew she *pointing upstairs* was already pregnant."
"Ahh, that's sneaky! We're going to tell her tomorrow, it's going to be one of her presents."
"I thought that might be the case. Well, congratulations Robert, it's great news."
"Thankyou!"
"Has she been alright this time around?"
"So far, so good, a lot less morning sickness than with Vannah, but she's feeling a little rough today. Smoothies help usually but she's definitely been more tired with this one."
"Have you thought about how you're going to keep this one a secret?"
"Honestly, no, we've just been trying to get Christmas out of the way first, and obviously we need to talk to Luke about it. We'll let you know what we decide, though."
"Great, Ok so what can I do to help with dinner?"
"Could you make the egg nog? Ands said it was your secret recipe after all..."He asked with a pleading gesture. "I'll get started marinating the salmon and prep the potatoes but I'll do the other veggies when the others get here, they won't take long."
"Absolutely!"
About an hour or so later, Andy came down the stairs wrapped in a blanket to Robert and Pruitt sat on the sofa drinking egg nog with the sports channel on. "Papi, llegas tamprano. Comó estás?"
"I thought I'd come and give you a hand with dinner, Mija, I'm good, are you okay?"
Andy smiled and sat down next to Robert and leant in to his open arms. He wrapped them around her bringing her in to a hug, one hand lingered on her little bump whilst he kissed her cheek. She shot a look at him as if to say 'what are you doing?" But he just shook his head. "Yeah Dad I'm fine thanks."
Robert whispered in her ear "he knows, by the way."
That same look was shot back at him which made Robert chuckle. "He knows, he's like a psychic or something he guessed." He said whilst holding his hands up so Andy wouldn't think it was his fault and get mad.
"Dad, h.. how could you have possibly guessed?"
"Mija, you're my daughter of course I know, I've known for weeks. You're just.. different when you're pregnant. I can't explain it but I just.. know... I can't wait to meet my next little grand peanut!"
Andy looked at Robert who did a very subtle shake of the head, indicating that he didn't know it was twins and she let out a mischievous smile. "Well, Papi, turns out you don't know everything.."
Pruitt had a puzzled expression and was about to ask her what she meant, but they heard Savannah coming down the stairs, twirling her hair in her fingers and clutching Mr Floppy. She didn't say anything but she spotted Pruitt straight away and went directly to him, cuddling in to his neck.
"Hi my beautiful girl, did you have a nice nap?"
Savannah just nodded, so Pruitt sat back with her to let her come round slowly.
"I hope you made some virgin egg nog for me?" Andy said, directing the question at her dad.
"Ummm, I didn't, but I can make you some now?" He said with a shrug.
"Will you pleeaassee?"
"Of course, but you're gonna have to take this one because I think she's fallen back to sleep." He said as he handed Savannah to Andy. She squirmed a little and then got comfy again, she was out cold.
"I'd wake her up but it's going to be a full on couple of days so we may as well let her sleep?" Andy queried.
"Yeah, as long as you're alright with her?"
"Of course, I miss her sleeping on me. It rarely happens anymore."
Robert gave his wife a kiss and got up from the sofa "alright Babe, well I'll set the table then, the others should be here pretty soon."
"Could you pass me the remote before you get too far away... please?" Andy asked as she fluttered her eyelashes at her.
"Here you go" he leant over and kissed her forehead as he gave it to her.
"Thankyou."
Another half an hour passed by and Pruitt and Robert continued beavering away in the kitchen, getting everything ready for the evening. Savannah had woken up after another 20 minute cat nap and was now having her hair done by Andy whilst she watched The Snowman on the TV.
"Uncle Loo get here now?" She asked.
"Uncle Luke won't be long baby, 10 more minutes I reckon. Uncle Ryan too."
"Daddy! Pease music?"
"Sure baby, what would you like to listen to?" He asked her.
"Me, Mummy Chismas dance!" She shouted.
"Feliz Navidad it is!" He chuckled. "Alexa, play Feliz Navidad!"
"Up Mummy, up!" Savannah shouted as she tried to pull Andy up from the sofa. They both swirled and twirled around the living room by the light of the Christmas tree, huge smiles on their faces and endless giggles. Robert finished preparing the veggies and swooped in between them. He took Andy in hold for a little dancing before Savannah wanted to be picked up to join in. A few more Christmas songs played as they all danced, Pruitt joining in now, until there was a knock at the door.
"Uncle Loo!" Savannah yelled as she ran towards the door.
"Savannah Sullivan wait for Daddy please."
"Uncle Loo door!"
"I know I'm coming but you know you don't open the door yourself!"
"Me sowwy."
Robert picked her up and opened the door, but it wasn't Uncle Luke it was Ryan. "It's Uncle Ryan!"
"Hi Uncle Ry." She said, a little deflated, really hoping he was Uncle Luke. She gave him a kiss and then got down from her Dad's grasp and pulled at Ryan's hand. "Uncle Ry dance me!"
"Hey Buddy!" Andy called from the kitchen. "Baby, let Uncle Ryan come in first please."
"Hi Son!" Pruitt called.
"Merry Christmas everyone!" Ryan yelled to everyone before taking his shoes off and putting his bags down. "Okay munchkin let's dance!"
A few more songs went by, Savannah enjoyed dancing around with Ryan and Andy before the door went again.
"Daddy, come door, Uncle Loo!"
"Coming Princess!"
Once again, Robert picked her up and then opened the door where Luke was stood. Thankfully he wasn't holding anything because Savannah launched herself at him so fast. "Uncle Loo! Uncle Loo!"
"There's my girl!" He said, taking her from Robert. "Merry Christmas Baby! Merry Christmas everyone!"
"Merry Christmas!" They all shouted in chorus.
The egg nog was flowing, the music turned up and everyone joined in for the impromptu dance party in the living room! Savannah's smile beamed from ear to ear as she was dancing around, surrounded by all the people who loved her dearly and who she loved with her whole tiny heart. Every so often Andy and Robert would dance together and steal a kiss or two, feeling happy and content with the life they were building together.
"Alexa, volume 2!" Robert said, causing the music to suddenly quieten down. "Let's eat everyone, before my two girls start to get hangry."
"Hey!" Andy said, pretending to be offended, but Robert just looked at her and she gave in. "Ok good point, let's eat!"
"Uncle Loo, me! Sit me!" Savannah demanded.
"Please.." Andy encouraged.
"Uncle Loo, sit me pease!" She corrected herself.
"Good girl, would you like juice with dinner?"
"Ye pease."
Ryan and Pruitt sat at the table and Luke went to take his shoes off, given that Savannah didn't give him much of a chance earlier, but when he walked back past the tree something caught his eye. He stopped, looked at it again and then looked at the table.
"Ands.." He started, waiting for her to turn around. "Are you.. P. R. E. G. N. A. N. T?" He said, a huge grin on his face. He spelt out the word incase Savannah didn't know.
Ryan looked straight at Andy who looked straight at Robert and let out a grin. "Yes" she held on to Robert's hand, "we are."
"Does a certain someone know?" He continued, making his way towards the table.
"No, Christmas present." She said, trying not to get her attention.
"Guys, congratulations that's such great news!" Luke beamed.
"Congratulations!" Ryan chimed in. "How far along are you?"
"14 weeks!"
"I'm so so happy for you guys. But we'll talk about it more with no little ears." He gestured with his eyes to Savannah.
"Absolutely!" Pruitt confirmed. "Now let's eat everybody!"
Andy cut up Savannah's food for her and then tucked in to her own. Chatter was had around the table whilst they ate and everyone was having a lovely time. Loving glances were given between Robert and Andy every so often and Andy was happy because she could now relax and put her hand on her babies without worrying about who was looking. She wanted to wait until Savannah had gone to bed before she announced they were actually expecting twins because even her Dad didn't know that part.
When everyone had finished, Robert cleared the plates away and then brought out the two desserts, White chocolate and raspberry roulade and chocolate cake.
"Savannah, which would you like?" He asked.
"Coclate cake pease"
"Good manners baby, here you go." He said as he handed her a bowl with a small piece of chocolate cake.
Andy had also chosen chocolate cake, but the boys all fancied the roulade. Robert did give Andy a spoonful of his dessert over the table though, as he knew she'd ask for some at some point anyway. More egg nog was poured, laughter was had and they all chatted the night away. Both Andy Robert enjoyed showing everyone the pictures from the Christmas Market, there were definitely some great ones that they would need to have printed out. Savannah sat on Luke's lap watching the Frozen Christmas special and she was definitely starting to get tired.
"Mummy, pease have milk?"
"Of course baby" Andy said as she got up to make her a bedtime bottle of milk. "Do you want me to take you to bed?"
"No pease Uncle Loo me bed?"
Andy silently asked Luke if he wouldn't mind taking her to bed. "Of course I'll take you to bed, come on let's go brush our teeth and read a story." He picked her up and took the milk from Andy.
"Mummy no, Santa cookie"
"Oh you're absolutely right, Daddy will get Santa's milk and cookies and a carrot for Rudolph. Let's put them on your special plate by the fireplace Ok."
"Here you go Princess." Robert said as he handed them to her "Kiss goodnight please." He puckered his lips for a goodnight kiss.
"Goodnight Daddy, wuv you"
"I love you baby, kisses for Mummy?" He asked.
Andy got a big hug and a kiss from Savannah who then quickly ran to the table to give goodnight hugs and kisses to Ryan and Pruitt. When she had finished saying goodnight, she put her arms up for Luke to carry her and off they went upstairs.
"I love you baby" Andy shouted up the stairs before popping to the toilet.
With Savannah sound asleep and everyone sat on the sofas, Robert began a speech about how grateful he was for his friends, his father in law, his wife and his 3 children. He thought if he slipped it in to the speech, they would either pick up on it straight away or it would go straight over their heads. With Ryan being the cop and showing great observational skills and awareness, he immediately chimed in.
"3 children? Robert can't you count?"
"He can" Andy grinned as she held up her ultrasound. "Savannah, baby A and baby B!"
"Twins?!" Luke and Pruitt yelled simultaneously.
"Twins!" Robert and Andy confirmed.
"Oh my goodness... 3 kids under 5! Wow you guys are saints!" Ryan exclaimed.
"First of all, that is amazing news and I cannot wait to meet them both. However, I hate to be the person to burst you bubble... Have you thought about telling the station now? How are you going to hide it? I mean, now that I know you're pregnant, I can't believe I didn't take note of your bump... it's definitely there."
"We need to discuss it, we haven't really had the chance we literally found out it was twins yesterday, so, can I get back to you on that one?" Andy explained.
"Of course, if it helps with your decision though... I have had a department from Oregon contact me about a temporary captaincy post... I could recommend you for that for a little while...? Just let me know when you decide, you know I've always got your back, both of you."
"Thanks Luke, we love you."
"No worries Ands, I love you, all of you, too."
"Thanks Man, I'll let you know asap."
"Congratulations Mija, Robert... I'm so happy for you."
They all continued chatting, laughing and joking around for another hour or too before Ryan looked up at the clock.
"Woah, it got a little late! Come on, let's leave these guys to it so they can get some rest before a very excited little one gets up for presents!" Ryan said as he put his coat on.
"Thankyou all so much for coming, we appreciate and love you all. Have a very Merry Christmas and we'll see you all soon."
They all exchanged hugs and kisses as they left. Robert shut the door as he pulled his wife in to a side hug. "Well I don't think that could have gone any better!"
"I know, and thank you so much for dinner it was delicious."
"Anytime. Now, why don't you go and run a bath whilst I put all the presents under the tree and clear up."
"Awh babe but that's not fair I've literally done nothing all day and you've done everything! Let me do the dishes whilst you do the presents, because there's no way I can carry that princess castle down here anyway."
"Okay fine, but only if you promise to a have a bath afterwards? You and our babies need to relax."
"Deal, WE can have a bath afterwards." She smirked as she made her way past him to the kitchen, "I still need to thank you for my breakfast, remember?"
When the kitchen was sparkling and all the presents were underneath the tree, the two of them made their way upstairs. Andy checked on Savannah, who was still sleeping like an angel and Robert began running the bath and lighting a few of the Christmas scented candles around the en suite. Andy had taken her clothes off and was looking at herself in the mirror, both hands on her bump, her thoughts a million miles away. When the bath was ready, Robert came to find Andy and slid his arms around her, covering her hands on her bump. "How are my gorgeous babies and their beautiful Mummy doing?"
Andy smiled and looked up at him in the mirror. "We're doing perfectly, how's my handsome Superman of a husband doing?"
He spun her around slowly so she was looking directly at him and gently lifted her chin and leant down to give her a soft kiss. "He's perfect now. Come on, bath time."
He stood in the bath and held out his hand to help her get in and they both sat down, Andy fitting perfectly in to Robert's arms, her back against his chest.
They lay silent in the bath for a few minutes, just a appreciating the touch of one other before they began talking about their plans for tomorrow and how they wanted it to go.
"Today was the perfect day, baby. Thankyou" She gushed.
"It really was. Nothing to thank me for though, I'll do anything for my girls at any point in time, you know that."
"We do, and we all love you more than I can express in words."
"Te amo, Mi preciosa." He whispered straight in to her ear. Her ears pricked up and her eyes rolled in her head. She loved it when he did that, she could feel the fire in her core ignite. He delicately rubbed up and down her arms as she sank further in to his embrace. She reached up and put her hand around the back of his neck, pulling him down in to a kiss. He softly kissed her lips and then ran his fingers ever so lightly over her breast, just grazing past her nipple. She inhaled sharply, pulled away and looked in to his perfect, chocolate brown eyes. Her body twisted ever so slightly in to him and their kiss began to get a little heated. Robert began tracing circles on Andy's upper thigh, increasing in size as he got closer and closer to her intimate area. Andy grabbed his wrist suddenly before he could reach anywhere of importance.
"Uhm, I'm supposed to be thanking you... not the other way around, Mr Sullivan."
"My beautiful, driven, inspiring and perfect wife is lying wet and naked on me on Christmas Eve... Our gorgeous daughter is asleep down the hall of our family home and tonight, we shared the news of our soon to be twins with our nearest and dearest. Baby, you are my biggest thanks. You and our children are literally my whole heart just walking around outside of my body. Your existence, thanks me enough every day and treating said perfect wife to a mind blowing orgasm.. or two.. or three" he chuckled as he kissed her in between each number. "Is my very favourite thing to do, so please... Mrs Sullivan... may I continue?" He asked as he raised an eyebrow and smirked at her.
Andy had a knot in her stomach, the good kind though, after hearing her husband's declaration. She felt so seen, so exposed yet so understood and it was making her almost nervous. She moved one of her legs up towards her chest as if she were trying to hide and become smaller. She'd never loved him more than she did in this very second and was all too aware of it.
"You may" was all she could muster up as she leant in to his kiss again and released his wrist.
He began to caress her thigh again, kissing her deeply at the same time. He took her bottom lip in his mouth, sucking and lightly nibbling it causing her to let out a small moan. Only the sound of the water gently moving around and the crackle of the Christmas candles could be heard. Robert gently moved Andy's curled up leg, allowing him full access to her. She made no effort to resist and allowed herself to be fully manipulated and manhandled by her gorgeously chiselled husband. He softly brushed over her clit with his fingers, letting her know he was there but not planning to give her what she craved any time soon. Andy knew he liked to take his time with her, it's almost as if each time they made love he was memorising every inch of her body, like it were the last time he would ever touch her. She had learnt by now that there was little point in trying to rush him as he would just slow down and tease her further. She could feel his now hard penis against her back and wanted nothing more than to have it deep inside of her. He kissed her again and taking her off guard he entered here with 2 fingers. Her juices coated them as he slowly curled them upwards again and again, perfectly hitting her sweet spot every time. Andy would twitch ever so slightly with each stroke which turned Robert on more with every second. She wanted him to pay attention to her clit now, because she knew he wouldn't make love to her until she'd had at least one orgasm at the mercy of his fingers. She guided his hand, lifting it so his now very wet fingers landed right on her bundle of nerves. He kept his hand still for a second before he heard "Robert Sullivan" which he knew was impatience from his wife. He obliged and began moving his fingers in circles, his free hand finding its way to her nipple where he squeezed and pulled while flicking her bean. He could feel her getting close as she squirmed around on him, losing her breath and moaning in to each kiss. He changed the rhythm just before she came to extend her pleasure for just that bit longer. When she'd reached her climax, he slid his 2 fingers back inside her and massaged her clit with his thumb to keep her on cloud 9 for as long as possible. She began involuntarily thrusting her hips slightly as her body was readying itself for him, her juices flowing out with each pulse. When she came down from her high, he licked his fingers and cupped her face with his other hand.
"Mr Sullivan, please take me to bed."
They both stood up and grabbed their towels, wrapping them around themselves. But before moving to the bed, Robert closed the gap between them, their bodies pressing together was all that was keeping the towels from falling to the floor. He pulled her chin up so she would meet his gaze and he moved her wet hair from her face.
"I love you."
"I love you" she repeated, her breath getting more erratic. He kissed her again, but before she got carried away she whispered "Robert, bed, now."
They leant apart and the towels dropped to the floor, he picked her up and supported her weight with his hands on her bum. He walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, so she was in his lap, legs either side of him with her ankles crossed around his lower back. He leant back slightly so his penis was erect and straight and slowly positioned Andy so she could sink down on to him. This wasn't a time for fast actions or reaching a goal anytime soon, they were both showing each other how much they love and appreciated their other half. This was one of Robert's favourite positions to make love in because his long arms could reach every inch of her body and her boobs were in the perfect position to be played with using his mouth. Andy gently rocked her hips and kept her head back, her hands running slowly over Robert's bald head. He sucked on her neck, being careful not to leave any marks whilst she let out quiet, slow moans. Andy pulled his head up so she could explore his mouth with her tongue. They kissed in perfect synchronicity as he slowly ran his hands up and down her back, his finger gently running over a scar she'd gotten as a teenager. It used to make her shudder when he did that, but she knew just how much he loved her, every part of her, and so it began to stop bothering her. Andy was getting close and he could feel her walls tightening around him, he put both hands on her butt and began helping her to rock, lifting her up slightly higher with each stroke. She started to get a little faster, leveraging herself higher with her feet she placed her boobs directly in front of Robert's mouth. After a few more strokes and with Andy's breathing getting much faster, Robert bit and pulled at her incredibly sensitive nipple with his teeth whilst simultaneously pulling her down on to him causing her to throw her head backwards as they both came together. Her eyes rolled, legs quivered and her back arched, letting out a squeal as Robert's toes curled over and he let out a low grunt, breathing heavily as he continued to pulse inside her, emptying himself. They both relaxed in to each other, their foreheads touching but their eyes closed.
"God, you're amazing." Andy panted.
"I can never get enough of you, you're incredible Babe." He replied.
"You know, I'm going to get too big to do that position soon" She slightly sadly stated.
"And you'll look just as perfect as you always do. We'll find the perfect position to take care of your needs, don't you worry about that."
They stayed connected for a little while longer, Andy resting her head on his. "Come on, let's get cleaned up and in to bed, that little monster of ours is going to be up soon wondering if Santa's been." He lifted her off of him and when her legs stopped feeling like jelly, she walked towards the bathroom.
She turned and held her hand out for him to take, "will you come and wash my hair for me please?"
"Of course, Mi amor" he stood up and walked towards her, taking her hand but pulling her back towards him as she tried to walk away. She spun in to him and he stopped her abruptly with his other hand. It took her a second for her to get her bearings but then she looked up to his cheeky grin and planted a little kiss on his lips.
Once they'd showered and actually cleaned themselves from their late night, or rather very early morning activities, Andy dried herself with her towel whilst Robert tidied the bathroom and blew out the candles. They both climbed in to bed, checked everything was charging for the morning and turned to each other for one last cuddle.
"Babe...before we go to sleep, can you tell me if your anxiety is a little better now that at least the chief knows?" He asked, concerned for his wife's wellbeing.
"It's a little better, but honestly, after what Luke said about the captaincy in Oregon.. my insides have gone to mush again. I almost forgot we needed to hide." A little sadness to her voice was coming through now. "But please, can we just enjoy tomorrow with Vannah and Papi and think about all of this the day after? I don't want my thoughts to cloud the magic for her."
"Of course, as long as you promise to tell me if you're feeling overwhelmed and we will work through it together?"
"I promise. Now go to sleep, Sexy Santa, tomorrow's going to be a long day."
Robert hugged her a little tighter "Goodnight baby, sweet dreams."
Last part coming on the 15th...
