Chapter two:
Nathan walked in the door, and rubbing his eyes he flopped on the couch, exhausted.
Haley walked out of their bedroom, "I thought I heard you come in."
She came and sat next to Nathan on the sofa, and he put his arm round her.
"When did you finish work?" Nathan asked her.
"About an hour ago. It was pretty quiet at Karen's today."
Even so, Nathan realised that Haley replied wearily, easing her aching neck.
Nathan's heart went out to her.
"Turn round so that you've got your back towards me," Nathan commanded.
Haley did as she was told, and Nathan immediately started massaging her shoulders.
"Aaaah, that feels good," Haley said closing her eyes.
Once Nathan felt Haley relaxing, he kept massaging, but leant forward to lead a trail of kisses down her neck. Haley tilted her head back in pleasure.
Nathan smirked, he loved seeing the pleasure he could evoke in his wife.
Haley turned around. "Thank you," she whispered, before capturing Nathan's mouth with her own and giving him a long and lingering kiss.
"You're welcome," Nathan said breathlessly.
"I feel much better," Haley said. She was touched that Nathan had seemed so concerned about her and wanted to make her feel better.
"Good," Nathan smiled. He hated seeing Haley so run down, all he wanted to do was look after her.
"I love you," Haley told him, and snuggled up in his arms.
Nathan kissed the top of her head, and held her tightly, as she closed her eyes in exhaustion.
Nathan knew Haley was tired, and so reluctantly got up.
Haley opened one eye, "Where are you going?" she whined.
"You're exhausted, so I'm putting you to bed."
"Oh really?" Haley raised an eyebrow and gave her husband a suggestive grin.
Nathan laughed, "You're too tired for that."
Haley reluctantly had to agree. Nathan tugged her hand, and she got up off the couch and followed him into the bedroom.
"I know it's early, but you're coming to bed now too, right?" Haley asked hopefully.
She pulled Nathan down onto the bed with her.
"Well, I wouldn't want you to have to sleep alone now, would I?" Nathan grinned.
"Being pregnant really tires me out," Haley said, yawning on cue.
Nathan got undressed, and then smiling at the sleepy expression on his wife's face, he gently undressed Haley too, and they both crawled into bed.
Laying in each other's arms they quickly fell asleep.
Haley glanced at the clock on the nightstand. It read 3:17 am.
She had woken up so hot that she almost felt sick, and immediately tossed the covers aside. Even though she had now cooled down slightly, she just couldn't get comfortable. Haley knew she had been tossing and turning for the last half an hour at least, and when she saw Nathan stirring, she thought she better get up so she didn't disturb him.
Haley walked to the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water. She was frustrated because she was so tired, and yet she couldn't sleep.
Haley rubbed her hand over her bump, "Please let Mummy get to sleep," she begged.
Haley sighed, "Oh I know it's not your fault it's so hot, and you don't mean for me to be uncomfortable," Haley spoke lovingly to her unborn son.
Nathan walked out of the bedroom, bleary eyed, running a hand through his hair.
"Nathan, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to wake you," Haley said guiltily.
"That's okay, are you alright?" Nathan asked sitting down on the other side of the kitchen counter, rubbing his eyes.
Haley let out a large sigh. "I'm hot, I'm uncomfortable, and I'm so very tired, but I still can't get to sleep," Haley said in exasperation.
"Hey, hey, it's okay," Nathan said, getting up and walking round behind his wife, putting his arms around her.
Haley gladly leant back into his embrace.
Nathan rubbed Haley's arms, and then picking up her glass of water he led her to the couch.
"Your desperation to get to sleep has probably got you all wound up, making it impossible to sleep. You need to relax."
"How?" Haley asked him.
Nathan put on one of Haley's CDs and a gentle song filled the living room. When the chorus started, he pulled her up into his arms and they swayed to the music. Haley laid her head on Nathan's shoulder, and started to relax.
I'm going to love you more than anyoneI'm going to hold you closer than before
And when I kiss your soul, your body'll be free
I'll be free for you anytime
I'm going to love you more than anyoneAs Nathan felt Haley drifting into sleep, he gently picked her up and took her back to bed.
