Max’s handdrops from my chin, the loss of his touch making me feel lost a lot quicker than it should.
“Max, our baby is fine, absolutely fine. It’s just…” I sigh “Oh, Max, I’m sorry!”
Max’s hair is almost always picture perfect, but he’s just ran his hand through it, tugging at the ends in frustration. A look of terror crosses his eyes and I realise my word choice maybe was slightly dramatic. These damn pregnancy hormones keep getting the better of me.
“For what, baby, for what?”
“I know we said we didn’t want to find out. But Mum—she opened her mouth and they just told me. Max, I’m sorry. I won’t tell you If you don’t want to know. But I know, I know the baby’s gender. So does Cassy.”
“Oh. Okay,” His mumble is laced with relief. I mean it was me who said I didn’t want to know either way if we were having a boy or a girl. Max said all he cared about is if the baby was healthy and nothing would change his adoration for the little button.
I agreed. But then my mum, in her normal controlling way, asked and the technician just said. It was strange having her there. She kind of played the concerned parent, the new grandmother. I took Cassy with me, as back up for me, so I didn’t feel her awkward stare. I kind of hoped Mum would keep her comments and opinions about Max to herself too if Cassy was there, and she did.
It was magical seeing our little tiny baby on the screen again, my skin covered in goosebumps and the tears just spilled from my eyes. Half me and half the beautiful man in front of me.
“I’m sorry,” I say as I look into his bright hazel eyes, studying me so inquisitively.
“No, it’s not your fault. But, tell me please, I want to know if you know. I just wish I could have seen your face when you found out.” He reaches his hand out to take mine, I feel my smile reaching my eyes as our fingers interlock.
“Well, baby had their legs crossed for a long time, but they are pretty certain they could tell.”
“And? You’re killin’ me here angel.”
“We’re having a baby girl, Max.”
My heart beats faster as I watch him process the information. I feel the hot tears forming in my eyes again as I see his get glassy.
“Ali?” he asks and I give him a little nod.
“A little girl?”
I nod again.
“Our little girl?” he says, his voice in a little disbelief.
“Yes love, our own little princess of rock n roll.” I laugh as Max pulls me close to his chest and looks down at me, his smile as wide and as genuine as I’ve seen on him in a very long time. I’m not sure if we should, if we shouldn’t but the emotion swirling around us over-takes me as I lean up on my tip toes and kiss his lips. The passion in him as he kisses me back is enough to have my head spinning. His tongue quickly teasing at the seam of my lips and tasting my own. He tastes like coffee and something incredibly sweet. I feel heady, light. When he pulls back from me, I’m not sure I’m even ready for the kiss to stop. I’m not sure I knew I was letting the little moaning noise break free from my throat, but Max certainly saw it if the smirk that’s currently covering his cheeks is anything to go by.
“Max, I was thinking in the car on the way back, we need to think about how we are going to do this, and I think you are right about me moving in with you,” I say quickly. My head is all over the place, so is my heart.
“It makes sense. You own your place, and I only rent mine. We can work out all the logistics but it’s only so we can be the best parents we can.” I look to Max to try and gauge his thoughts, his smile is huge. Nervous but genuine, giving me the confidence I need to carry on what I’m saying.
“I think we need to learn boundaries from each other, we need to stay in separate rooms? But neither of us want to miss anything and we shouldn’t have to if we live under the same roof for the time being anyway.”
He nods at me, his lips hovering closer to mine than they were a few seconds ago.
“So, do we fuck in my room or yours?”
“I seem to remember I just mentioned a little word. Boundaries Baines.”
“Hmmm, I don’t think we had any of them last night when your legs were wrapped around my waist with my cock teasing in and out of your cunt,” He says with a nip of his teeth. My hard nipples graze almost painfully against my bra. Fucking rock star. Knows no bounds.
“Nope, sorry. Don’t remember,” I tease.
“Hmm. Maybe I’ll have to remind you tonight,” he assures me as his hands run down the side of my body, like a sexy electric shock rippling across my skin, my nerve endings on fire at his touch.
“Maybe,” I jest at him, making a move to walk away but he grabs my hands and pulls my body tight to his chest. His lips find the shell of my ear.
“You didn’t answer me. Do we fuck in my room or yours?”
