Forever ➳ O'Brien [3]

➳ 89

"Hey, Dylan?" Cara turned on her side, resting her chin on her half-asleep husband's shoulder. Dylan cracked an eye open, peering tiredly down at his wife as he moved to wrap his arms around her, turning himself onto his side in the process.

              "What is it?" He asked, stifling a yawn and fighting to keep his eyes open. 

               Cara smiled, softly, at her husband as she thought over the words that were to leave her mouth next; words she'd kept locked away for months now, waiting for Ollie's second birthday to be over and done with before they were uttered. "I want to have another baby," she admitted in a hushed voice, afraid that Dylan might not want the same.

               "Yeah?" He raised a brow, "Right now?" He pressed a kiss to the side of her neck, smiling when she swatted him. "I want us to have another baby, too," he finally said, yawning as he buried his face in the crook of her shoulder. "Can we talk about it in the morning, though? I'm exhausted."

                "Of course." Cara smiled, and continued to do so until she fell asleep, wrapped up in Dylan's arms, with babies on the mind.
