“I got it.”
“I know you do, but I’m not helpless. Just pregnant.”
Blake wiped her hands off on the nearby dish towel and turned around in Alexis’s arms. “I thought that was the same thing.”
“Ha ha.”
“I'm just teasing.” Blake kissed her, memorizing the new way their bodies fit together. She put her hands on Alexis’s stomach. “How are you feeling today?”
“I’m good. Tired, but good. I think the massages and the yoga help.”
“That’s good.”
“You know, you take such great care of Harper and me and the babies. And you know what you need?”
“Sex?”
They both laughed. “I thoughtIwas supposed to be the hornier one during pregnancy, not you.”
“What can I say? I'm having sympathy pains.”
Alexis rolled her eyes. “I was going to say I think you need a day out of the house. Call up Mason or someone and go hang out and drink.”
“I'm happy to stay here with you.”
“I know you are, and I love you for that.”
Blake narrowed her eyes at Alexis. “Why do I feel like there’s abutcoming?”
“ButSophia and I wanted to have a girls’ night at home since Emily’s at work tonight. I would invite you, of course,” she turned her puppy dog eyes on to get her way, “but I miss hanging out with my best friend and once the babies come, it’ll be harder to arrange that.”
“So,” she smiled, “you’re kicking me out of the house.”
“No, I mean, you can stay here if you want. I’d feel bad if I was over in Sophia’s apartment and you were alone. And that would make me sad and you know what happens when I get sad these days.”
Blake sure as hell did. Alexis had basically turned into a faucet with her tears since she’d gotten pregnant.
“I guess for your sake, I can see what Mason is up to today.”
“Great!” Alexis happily clapped her hands together.
“You know I’ll have to pick up Harper in an hour from Mom’s, right?”
“Oh, actually no. You don’t. Harper’s going to spend the night at Isla and Vera’s tonight.”
“How convenient.”
“I know.” Opening the refrigerator, she took out a Powerade and took a sip. “I thought of it this morning and Harper was excited and youknowher grandparents love to have her so it worked out for everyone.”
“You must really want that girls’ night.”
“I only want it a little more than sex tonight.”
Blake arched an eyebrow. “Tonight?”
“I’m thinking the possibilities are very,” Alexis leaned in closer, her lips tantalizingly close to Blake, “very good.”
“Well, then, let me leave so I can come back tonight and have sex with my beautiful wife.”
