Midnight Chains (Tortuga and I)

He nodded and closed his eyes.

With a deep breath she kissed him softly before curling up against a body pillow, extremely pregnant. While he slept in that next morning, she called the doctor. He was still asleep though the small checkup, the doctor putting her on bedrest with a signed dated note for her mate and husband to be while she sat on the couch, under a few fuzzy blankets watching TV.

He stumbled out and got a cup of coffee, still a zombie. "mornin love."

She turned her head and smiled, "I have breakfast cooking in the oven."

"mmmm." sat next to her on the couch.

She shifted and had him lay against her, his head on her breast as she watched her tv.

He yawned and nuzzled her breast sleepily. "what're you doin up so early?"

She shrugged, "I don't know."

He kissed her breast reverently and rubbed her belly, "thats nice."

"No, no its not because I'd REALLY like to sleep." She grumbled, her hormones and emotions swirling.

"mm well hey lets fix that." he reclined her chair andturned down the lights.

She grumbled, "Midnight, you know i don't nap or sleep after i've gotten up..."

"shhh just relax you dont have to sleep.

She giggled and licked him nuzzling into him and whispering, "Baby,"

"yes?" he yawned.

"You need to stay awake, we need to move back into our new house."

"mm later." he kissed her belly and settled on her lap.

"But I wanna go there..." She pouted adorably.

"mmmph." he sat up and stretched.

She looked down and curled up against the couch, hiding tears on her face. She fet like she was forcing him, and felt horrible. "I-I sorry...'

"hey hey hey shhh its okaylove."

"You don't wanna go..." She whispered then turned violently to him, "You don't want to be here do you? You want someone else. YOu don't even want our kits!" Her hands flew to her stomach, her hormones a fire in his head.

He gasped in pain and stumbled back a little. "of course I want our kits. Of course i want to go i was just feeling lazy today. And i love only you." he said soothingly.

She narrowed her eyes, "Then what are you doing at night that is making you so tired lately? What are you hiding?"

"nothing. I work for awhile aer you go to bed thats all." he surrendered.
