"What's up baby?" she said looking up at me from the bed, a wide grin stretched out on her face.

"Do you want kids with me?" I asked looking straight into her eyes. She seemed taken aback from the question and I saw confusion flash across her face but just as quickly as it appeared, it vanished without a trace.

"We have 2 beautiful kids together and I want many more with you. As many as you want. We can have a whole baseball team running around our home if that's what you want baby." I looked to her and almost started crying.

"I'm pregnant." I said not breaking eye contact and before she could speak, I finished what I was going to say.

"And I'm keeping the baby." I made sure our eyes stayed locked so she knew I was serious.

She got up and walked to me, her face was hard and showed no hint of any emotion she was feeling.

She knelt in front of me and smiled.

"Hi there peanut. I'm Jessica. I'm married to your mommy and I'm gonna spoil you so much." she said before kissing my clothes stomach. She got up off of her haunches and wrapped me in a hug.

"You're the peanuts mother too." I cried into her shoulder.

"Are you sure you want to keep it?"

Was I sure? Yes.

If this had happened before I met Jessica, or if I didn't want more kids then I would have had an abortion but this is what I want. I can take care of this kid now.

We'll be able to care for it. And love it.

More importantly, mentally I'm ready for another child.

"I'm sure." I said, still crying.

"You know I will support you no matter what my love." I smiled against her and nodded.

"I love you." she whispered as she moved my head back and kissed my forehead.

She's always so gentle with me and I love it. I love her. I'm in love with her.

I didn't answer her. Instead, I slept.

When I woke up, it was late. I could tell by the way the sun was shining through the curtains.

I didn't feel like showering so I decided to change and head down to get the peanut and I something to eat.

After successfully changing into Jessica's t-shirt and a pair of tights, I threw my hair into a messy bun and walked to the kitchen.

The kids have school and Jess has work and then tomorrow we're having a family day since it'll be Saturday.

Dragging my feet into the kitchen, I made a healthy and nutritious breakfast of eggs and toast with tea.

Halfway through the delicious meal, Jessica walked in with a smile on her face and roses in her hand.

"I thought you and I could have a day for us. We've been so busy with the kids and so I thought why not take a day off for us."

I abandoned my food and charged her.

She's literally perfect.

I launched myself into her arms and hugged her.

"I'd love that." I whispered as her free arm wrapped around me.

"Great. What do you want to do? Anything baby." she said, holding me closer to her.

"Can we go to the movies? Maybe dinner?"

She nodded and I was glad.

"Honestly I think that's a great idea my love."

I squeeled in joy and tried to run upstairs to put on decent clothes.

"No baby. Eat your food love then we'll cuddle abit before we go. Okay? Sound good?"

I nodded and ate my food as fast as I could without choking. Which surprisingly is quite fast. Jessica found it hilarious even but I didn't. All I wanted to do was finish the food so I could enjoy some cuddles with my wife.

She's so gorgeous, and kind. And she's all mine.

I walked to the dishwasher and put my dishes away.

"I'm hiring help. I know you spend your days cleaning but that ends now. We'll get a cleaning service to come around 2 or 3 times a week. I don't want you doing work."

I turned around and looked at my absurd wife.

"I can handle a little sweeping you know." I said looking at her in the eyes so she knows I'm serious.

"Baby. You're pregnant now. No unnecessary work. We can afford a cleaning service. The kids and I will help around more in the house. I don't want you to be overworked and stressed out. You'll be starting your first novel soon and that's already alot of pressure. Please let me do this baby." she looked so determined so I let her win.

"Fine but only because it'll give me more time to write." I said rolling my eyes.

"That's my girl. Okay let's go get some cuddle time in."

And so we did.

We both cuddled until about 3pm before dressing up in nice clothes and going to the movies.

We looked ridiculous, we both looked fancy and we were sitting in a movie theater. But I didn't care because being married to a goofball as goofy as I was is the best thing there is.
