The crop circle of cray pas, protractors, sketches, and architectural plans surrounded her wife on the floor of their office. Her blue print tube lay by her hip as she knelt on the floor sketching ideas for the art design of their newest project. She stood in the doorway, the light from the desk cast a glow over the brunette's shiny dark head as it bopped along to the Alabama Shake's "Always Alright." She stood admiringly, watching her wife go through her process for a while before she spoke,

"In your zone?"

She looked over her shoulder acknowledging the voice, "Hey babe, yeah, I didn't even hear you come in." Alex pushed herself up onto her knees to receive her kiss from Piper. The blonde took a seat in their luxury leather office rolling chair and exhaled loudly. She twisted slightly cracking her back. Watching her wife while she worked always turned her on, lately she longed for the brunette more than ever.

"How was your day?," the brunette asked, raising her glasses up onto her head, "how are you feeling?," she asked, stroking her wife's tummy.

"We're fine. I've had a headache that's lingered all day though." Before she had been able to say anything else, Alex had put her hand up and walked out the room. Piper felt catered to before her pregnancy, but Alex had taken indulging her to a whole new level. She returned with a Tylenol and a frosty glass bottle of Coke. Piper caught her eye when she returned, relaying a you're ridiculous and I'm perfectly capable of obtaining my own remedies look, as Alex shrugged her shoulders and smiled, she knew that look and somewhere within she agreed, but she couldn't help herself.

"The movements are getting so much stronger Al! I felt it a lot in this spot earlier," she moved her hand over to a particular patch of skin. Alex had tried to catch the movements that Piper felt throughout the week failing to feel the bumps underneath her hand. She sipped her coke and a few minutes later, and felt the roll of her baby from one side to the other.

"Come here!," she beckoned Alex with her hand. She placed Alex's hand underneath her own against the space where she felt the roll.

"I can't feel it Pipes, it's probably still too early."

"Just wait for it." She kept her hands firmly on top of Alex's. She wanted Alex to be able to feel their baby as often as she had been able to but perhaps the movement was too light.

Alex breathed air out her nose and waited for ten minutes, her knees pained from remaining in the same position, she readjusted, but kept her hand put. She leaned onto her left hip, and rested her head on Piper's thigh, "Mookie, I have stuff to get done."

The corner of Piper's mouth dipped down, her patience was running thin as well. She took another sip of her coke, and felt a bump from within.

"Whoa!," Alex's jaw dropped and her eyes widened, "I felt it!" She kept her hand perfectly still. She pushed the coke bottle back to Piper's lips, "it's the caffeine!" Piper took another swig and swallowed, she felt Mookie roll around again. Alex wiggled with excitement and put her other hand against Piper, a huge smile breaking across her face.

"Great another caffeine addict in this house, just what I need!" She let Alex lean against her for a few more minutes while Mookie went wild, before guiding Alex's hand higher until it cupped her breast causing the brunette to raise her eyebrows. She went with it and began to massage her hands over Piper's chest. Piper hiked up her skirt allowing easier access, seeking the sensuality of Alex's touch. She felt Alex's hand caress her leg, increasing her need, she kissed the brunette's mouth lasciviously. Alex guided her onto the desk, laid her on her back and removed her underwear. She sat across Pipers legs, and leaned forward on her elbows careful not to press all her weight against her and began kissing her, whispering dirty things in her ear causing Piper to hotly moan.

"I'm so horny Al, touch me," she panted out.

"Where do you want me sexy lady?," Alex asked her huskily through closed teeth. She teased her opening with two fingers.

Piper felt her hips raise up responding to the touch she desired to feel inside her, when she felt waves rolling between their skin, making them both freeze still. She couldn't stifle her laughter,

"You feel it too?," she confirms as she see sees Alex bite her tongue between her teeth, the brunette nods her head through hooded eyelids.

"I can't do this now!," she raised herself off her elbow and stood up next to their desk.

Piper slowly pushed herself upright, keeping herself supported by her hands. "What? Are you kidding me? Just give it a second, the baby will calm down!"

Alex bit her bottom lip, and laughed nervously, "that was really weird Pipes."

"Well you're going to need to get over it!," she said matter of factly. "You weren't weirded out 10 minutes ago!"

"Yeah, but it's weird to feel Mookie move when I'm in the middle of fu-," she changed her voice to a whisper, "slipping files into your folder!"

Piper guffawed, "why are you whispering?"

"I'm all too aware of the kid now," she admitted poking at Piper's middle.

"The kid can't hear you."

Alex's mind ran rampant, "Mookie sooooo can hear me! This is insane." It was all too surreal and overwhelming for her to comprehend.

"We'll look into it later. I want you...now, and I can't help but feel this kid all day, so you're going to need to get your shit together and get-over-it."

Alex took her hand and moved to their bedroom. She began to kiss her again and turned her onto her side, spooning her from behind. She brushed her hair away from her neck, and sucked around her pulse point and breathed hotly against her skin. She grazed her inner thigh, from her knee to the palpable wetness. She bent Piper's upper leg at the knee and glided her fingers in gently.

"Now we're talking, finally!"

"Are you comfortable?"

"Geez your sexual charisma is at its peak today. Stop talking and just let me feel you."

"Wow, this moodiness is really attractive. Please continue."

Piper rolled onto her back, and took Alex's face in her hands and kissed her hard, "just fuck me Alex."

Alex kissed down the length of her body until her mouth breathed against her wife's saturated center. She licked and sucked and teased until the feet that rested on her shoulders started pushing her away, and demanded that she feel her hand inside her. Two expert fingers were thrust inside, smoothly they moved deeper and retracted almost slipping out, causing Piper to moan each time she thought she'd lose contact. Piper sought Alex's other hand against the bed, squeezed it tightly as she felt her whole body heat up. "I'm gonna cum, don't stop." Alex quickened her pace, while licking Piper's hardened button until she felt the blonde shake uncontrollably around her mouth and fingers, eventually becoming still.

Piper turned back onto her side, her breathing now shallow. Alex fit her body behind her once again, stroking the damp skin down her back under her tank top and followed it to her bottom. She stroked her skin lightly, sending chills over the blonde's body. "I'm mildly obsessed with this ass," she said tapping it lightly.

"Stop it, I thank the stars for skirts and dresses, pants do not love these hips right now."

She squeezed her hip firmly, "yeah well there's just more of it for me to love," she said and she kissed the crease between her hip and her abdomen.

Piper used her arm to push herself upright and swung her legs over the bed. "What do you want for dinner?"

"I'll handle that, what do you want?"

"I don't know." She padded down the hall, into the kitchen and over to the fridge, she browsed, nothing met her fancy. "I kind of just want fruit or something light," she opens and closes the crisper with her foot, rattling the lone apple inside. "I'm just gonna get some stuff at the fruit stand downstairs. Where's my underwear?"

Alex grabs her hands and sits her down on the couch in their living room. Piper is about to protest and stand up when Alex snaps her fingers and points down at the couch.

"Me hunt the food, you grow the baby. I'll be right back." She grabbed her keys and took the stairs to the fruit stand. She grabbed kiwis, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, raspberries, bananas, clementines, and a small melon.

She chops the fruit and makes Piper a fruit salad, storing the rest in individual Tupperware for next few mornings' breakfasts. She brings the oversized bowl over to Piper on the couch, and props the blonde's feet on a pillow over their coffee table.

"Al, this bowl is Shrek sized, c'mon!"

"Just eat it." She opens the internet icon on her phone, her eyes dance wildly, then puts the phone down on the couch next to her wife, "I win." Piper reads through the text, week 25, baby can hear. She sees Alex saunter over to the bookshelf and peruses over many titles before narrowing it down, "Jane Austen or Roald Dahl?"

"I don't think I can handle child abuse right now... Austen." She forks a piece of kiwi and sucks it off the metal tines.

She lifts the book off the shelf, plopping down on the couch beside Piper, and lays the back of her head against her legs. "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife...humph,' and lucky to have one!" Piper feeds a raspberry to the brunette, letting her suck it from her fingers. Piper closes her eyes and listens intently to the words from Alex's lips, she's read Pride and Prejudice many times before, but a book always sounds so different when read aloud by her wife. She continues to listen to her wife reading, but her mind wanders off thinking of Miss Bingley and their admiration of books, "I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book!" She feels Mookie moving again, and in a daze grabs Alex's hand, causing the book to close, and places it under her shirt so she can feel. Alex stops reading, unable to see the words on the page, and Mookie stops.

"Keep going," Piper gently whispers. Alex balances the book on her chest and holds it open with one hand, keeping the other against Piper and begins to read again. Piper sees the color flow into Alex's cheeks, as they feel their baby dance at the sound of it's mothers voice.
