her belly and then around to her back to massage it.
“God, I’m so pregnant,” she groans as she leans into my rubbing.
“And you’ve never looked more beautiful,” I tell her as I kiss her neck.
She opens one eye to glare at me. “You have to say that.”
“He’s right,” Betty agrees. “And I’m not required to say that either.”
“Yes you are,” Erin chides, but I see a smile tug at the corner of her lips.
“Mommy has a big fat belly too,” Elizabeth chimes in and I open my mouth to tell her not to tell Mommy that, but Erin begins to laugh.
“At least someone is honest with me.” She shakes her head as she walks over to Elizabeth and kisses her goodnight. “Sleep well, little angel.”
When we get to the car, Erin sighs as I help her in the seat. “I know I’m supposed to be enjoying these last few days before our baby boy gets here, but I swear I just want to lie around in a bathrobe eating ribs like Chrissy Teigen.”
I laugh as I scoot in beside her and kiss her forehead. “We can do that if you want. But I’d like to remind you that this date night was your idea.”
“That’s before I got sleepy.” She cuddles next to me and I love the feeling of her warm body on mine.
“Well then you’ll love what I have planned.” She looks up at me and waits for me to explain, but I only smile at her.
The drive takes a little while, but when we go through the drive-thru she gasps. “Donuts?”
“Order whatever you want.”
She leans across my lap and shouts into the speaker all kinds of donuts and I laugh. This is her favorite place, but it’s a county over and we haven’t made this trip in a while.
After the donut shop, we hit four more drive-thrus at her favorite places until we have a feast fit for a pregnant queen.
“Where are we going now?” Her eyes are wide with excitement as she looks at all the food.
“Home.” I take her hand and kiss the back of it.
When we get to the house, she sees that I had the back yard set up with an outdoor bed and a movie screen. Nee and Dani came over earlier and helped by stringing up lights overhead.
“Oh god, this is so beautiful and exactly what I wanted.” Erin begins to cry and I hold her close. She’s not sad, it’s just the hormones.
“And your robe is right inside if you want to take your pants off.”
“I swear if I wasn’t so pregnant I would do some nasty sex stuff to you right now.”
I laugh and pull her to me. “I think that’s how we got in this situation.”
“I would even get pregnant on purpose so I could tie you down. That’s how much I love this.”
“I’m pretty sure I was the one that got you pregnant on purpose so you wouldn't leave me.”
“Six one way, half a dozen the other and all that.” She shrugs as she pulls me down for a kiss. “I love you, Devin. So damn much.”
“I love you too.”
It was the most perfect date night ever. Until her water broke.
