A/N: This chapter is short, but I felt like it should stand alone. Enjoy! :)
Lily lay staring into the dark bedroom. She had been awake for almost an hour, trying her best to go back to sleep, but the baby just wouldn't keep still. She had turned several times, doing her best not to wake Dean. He had gotten used to her movement as the months went on and she struggled to get comfortable in bed, but when she turned onto her back for the third time, he woke up. He sat up and rubbed his eyes with the back of his hands before turning on the small lamp.
"You okay, sweetheart?"
"I can't sleep," she said. "The baby is doing cartwheels in there."
"Did you try sitting up for a while?"
"Yeah."
"What about talking to her? Didn't you say you read something about talking to the baby?"
"I've tried that before. It doesn't help."
Dean kissed Lily's forehead and then moved down so that his head was next to her belly. He lay on his side and propped himself up on his forearm. He put his hand on Lily's stomach and brushed his thumb back and forth.
"Hey, baby girl," he said softly. "You have to let mom get some sleep, okay?"
The baby moved beneath Dean's hand, and he smiled. Lily shook her head.
"We're trying to get her to calm down a little, remember?"
"Okay. Why don't I tell you about your mom, and maybe you'll let her sleep when you realize how amazing she is."
"Dean..."
He ignored her, and continued talking to her belly. "If you're even half as beautiful as your mom, then I know you'll be the most adorable baby on the planet. I hope you have her eyes," he said as he looked up at Lily. "I love looking into your mommy's eyes."
Lily smiled, and her eyes watered. She ran a hand through Dean's hair, then down along his jaw. Dean closed his eyes and leaned into her palm.
"You're about to make a pregnant woman cry," Lily said with a chuckle.
Dean sat up and pulled her hand to his mouth, kissing the palm. "I just wanna make sure she knows how awesome her mom is."
"Well, it seems to have calmed her down, anyway. I think she likes your voice. I know I do."
"Do you, now?" He purposely dropped the tone of his voice, practically growling.
"I could listen to you talk all day," she said.
He moved back up to her side and leaned down to kiss her. He pulled her bottom lip between his own soft lips, and she opened her mouth, inviting him to deepen the kiss. He moved to her cheek instead.
"I thought you wanted to hear me talk?"
"Then talk," she said.
Dean kissed down her neck. "I love kissing you."
Dean sat her up enough to get her shirt off. She wasn't wearing a bra.
"Keep talking," she said.
Dean's mouth returned to her neck. He continued to talk through his kisses.
"I love the way you touch me while I kiss you. Like you don't know what to do with your hands... you wanna touch me everywhere."
"I do," Lily said with a sigh. Her hands were in Dean's hair. Her eyes were closed. She was focused on the sound of his voice and the feel of his lips.
Dean paid close attention to her breasts as he kissed his way down her body.
"I love that you're all mine," Dean said.
"I have been for a long time."
He placed a quick kiss on Lily's belly, then whispered, "Cover your ears, baby girl."
Lily chuckled. Every time they made love, ever since he realized that the baby heard sounds, he said that. She was just thankful that it didn't freak him out to the point of not wanting to be intimate. Dean had actually kept the promise he had made her about her body changing. He still initiated sex. He still wanted her, even though her belly got between them.
Dean pulled her panties from her, then removed his boxers and lay next to her on his side.
"Let's try something different," he said. "Face that way."
Dean pointed away from himself, so she turned onto her side, with Dean behind her. He moved in close to her, kissing her neck and her shoulders before slipping into her from behind. Lily's mouth fell open, releasing a sound that was half gasp and half moan. She reached behind her and grabbed Dean's hip. His breath was warm on her neck as he pressed against her back.
"This way I can have my whole body against you," he said.
"Yes," was all she could manage, and it came out it a whisper.
Lily loved this new experience. She loved having his arms wrapped around her from behind as he thrust into her. She loved how he was able to caress her breasts so easily. She turned her head to look at him, and he kissed her, covering her mouth completely with his own. She whimpered as the tension built inside of her, until she was trembling, her body slightly curling without Dean's weight on top of her. A few more thrusts, and Dean let his body wrap around Lily's as they rode out the high.
Dean brushed her hair away from her neck and kissed the now damp skin. He let his lips brush over her earlobe before whispering, "and I love the way it feels to be inside of you."
Dean turned off the lamp, adjusted the sheets, and pressed his body close to her again, letting his hand rest on her belly. Lily let out a contented sigh, and ran her hand over his.
"Maybe I'll be able to fall asleep now," she said.
Dean kissed her neck with a smile on his lips, then settled back down into his pillow.
"I'm here if you need me," he said.
