Izzy's POV

"Hey you." Chris says and I smile.

"Hi you, we miss you."

"I miss you too, it gets really lonely without my babies." Chris sighs out. 

"Well you'll be back before you know it. You're doing great, all of you. I'm proud of you babe, so proud. We're rooting for you, for all of you. I'm especially rooting for my other half."

"That's so sw-."

"My other half, Tobin."

"I hate you." Christen says as she glares at me and I laugh.

"Kidding babe, rooting for my other half, my wife, you." I say with a smile. "We can't wait for you to come home."

"I'm so nervous."

"You have nothing to be nervous about babe, you're killing it."

"No not that, I mean I am nervous for that but I'm nervous you'll go into labor when I'm so far from you."

"Relax, you're starting to sound like Kenny. You'll be here and this little one will still not be ready to come out."

"I hope so." Christen frowns as she looks away from the screen.

"Chris, babe. You'll be here, don't stress." I say with a soft smile. "I'm sure this little one will hang in there for just a bit to make sure their mama is here."

"Let me see?" Christen asks, a soft smile on her face as she tilts her head. "Please."

I nod my head as I get up from the chair, I walk far enough from the phone so I can be in the frame, well my belly. I turn to my side as I lift my hoodie up and placing the hoodie on my belly, I then place my hands under my stomach and look at the screen.

"You look beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Breathtaking." Christen says with a cheeky grin. "Also is that my hoodie?"

"Obviously yours babe, can't sleep without it. You wanna know what's breathtaking?" I ask and she hums. "Me walking up the stairs. It's tiring."

"Aw baby, why don't you just sleep downstairs? It's easier. I don't want you to get so fatigued."

"I'm married to a professional soccer player, I will not let a baby, well stairs make me so fatigued." I say as I walk towards the phone.

"Wait wait wait, go back I want to take a quick screenshot." Christen quickly stammers and I giggle.

"Okay, back I go."

I walk back, turn to the side, lifting Christen's hoodie up and placing my hands under my belly. I turn my head and smile. I see Christen giggling as what I assume she's doing is grabbing her phone making the screen shake a little and then taking some screenshots.

"I can't wait to get back home to you."

"We can't wait for you to come back home and be with us."

"I watch the videos you send me all the time, my favorite one is the one where you're dancing with the kids outside as they play in the kiddie pool."

"I joined in, splashed my feet a little." I say and Christen laughs.

"That's cute. You know, you in that bikini really had me excited."

"Keep it in your pants babe."

"You know if I would then we wouldn't have the twins and that little one on the way." Christen says with a smirk.

"You're annoying."

"You're just saying that because you know I'm right." Christen says with a laugh.

"Sure babe." I say. "Oh I've been working on the re inc website, I think it looks good if you want to look at it. All pictures look great too."

"I told you not to work."

"Well being with five kids, I have to be doing something." I say as I place my hands on my face. "Plus Asher likes to help me, he likes to watch and sleep. But he helps trust me, we like to make calls, he answers and then I take over."

"That's cute."

"Mhm." I yawn out.

"It's late, go to sleep."

"I would say it's early since it is 4am here and 8pm with you." I yawn out.

"Baby? My love, go to sleep. I'll see you soon." Christen says and I yawn again as I rub my eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'm just really tired."

"Sleep, you need to be well rested." Christen says and I smile.

"I love you."

"I love you."

I walk towards the bed, I pull the hoodie off and going under the covers, then grabbing the hoodie again as I cuddle into it.

"Goodnight my beautiful wife." Christen whispers.

"Goodnight my wonderful wife." I say slowly.

"Sleep my love. I love you."

"I love you too."

I set the phone down next to me, not ending the call because Christen waits until I fall asleep to end it herself. I close my eyes, taking in the smell of Christen's hoodie which smells just like her.

Christen's POV

I end the call with Bella as she finally fell asleep. I log onto my Instagram as I find some pictures from tonight's FaceTime call. I grin as I choose two of the many screenshots I took and two pictures we took from a couple days before I left.

christenpress: My love for you is never ending. Thank you for being so patient with me, thank you for putting up with this crazy time difference. You're such a good mom to our kids and I love everything about you. You won't see this just yet because you just fell asleep after our FaceTime call. Just know you're rocking this whole being pregnant again. You're killing it baby. I love you.
