Unconditional

Chapter 18

"Kim, wake up baby," I hear Chris voice call out but I fought.

"What time is it?" I whined.

"4:15."

"In the morning?"

"Yeah, CJ is hungry."

I growled in frustration as I heaved myself in to sitting position, I was still uncomfortable.

"Sorry baby, if I could feed I would."

I rolled my eyes taking CJ from him. I got a pillow and propped myself up against it. Five minutes in to his feeding I started to drift off.

• Chris •

I noticed about five minutes into CJ's feeding she started drifting off. She was still propped up so I didn't bother them, I just kept a close eye on them. After twenty minutes CJ started to go back to sleep, so I got him and burped him. I took him back in the nursery. When I came back in the room I fixed Kim's bra and shirt and laid her back down properly.

Even after birthing twins, Kim's still looks gorgeous with her post-baby weight. I laid down and turned the light off, unable to sleep though. Trust me, my priority isn't sex but damn did I wish I had some though.

Eight and a half months without sex. And there will be more, but I'm still the grateful one. If the only way for me to be with Kim was to never have sex again, I'd agree to it wholeheartedly without hesitation. I'm not saying it would be easy because it's already been hard but I'm not trying to lose Kim again. I know and understand that if I do lose her, she'd be gone forever and I can't live with that.

----- The Next Day -----

The next morning I woke up I found Kim sitting up in bed pumping milk. She looked exhausted. I lean over and kissed her good morning. Then I stepped out of bed. I peaked in to the twins room, they were both woke but quiet. Both looking at the mobile hanging over there cribs curiously. I slipped back out and went in to me and Kim's bathroom to run Kim a nice hot bubble bath. Once the temperature of the water was right I added the bubble bath, bath salts, & oil. I lit a few candles around the tub and turned the jets on gentle. After I filled the tub up, I turned the water off and dimmed the lights.

When I walked back in the room Kim had just finished pumping her 6th bottle. After she closed it I gathered the bottles to put I'm the refrigerator.

"You can go enjoy your bath, I got the babies."

She smiled gratefully and kissed me on the lips. I preceded downstairs and placed the bottles in the fridge, then grabbed somethings out of the refrigerator to start breakfast. Whole beating the eggs I called Kareem on the cordless got a favor.

"What up my son?" Kareem answered.

"Can you run to McDonald's for me and get a large Caramel Frappe for me?"

"For Kim?"

"You know it."

"Yeah, I'm heading out now. Anything new happened between you two?"

"We can talk when you get here. But you have to hurry up."

"Okay, give me 15 minutes."

We disconnected and I ran up stairs to get the twins. I put them in their swings in the living room and quickly made breakfast.

I made Belgian waffles, scrambled eggs, & maple turkey sausage. I topped the waffles off with whipped cream and some fresh fruit. Strawberries, Pineapples, a and Orange slices.

Just as I made her plate the doorbell rang. I set the plate on the stove top in attempt to keep the food warm.

I let Kareem in, he handed me Kim's frappe then he took a seat in front of the twins, his godchildren.
