You were currently lying in bed, enjoying the quiet stillness of the night. Anna was fast asleep in her room. It had been a long day filled with her favorite things, and seeing her so happy and full of energy warmed your heart.

Ever since you met Anna, it was like she had regained her zest for life. Her infectious laughter, her bubbly personality, and her endless love for adventure had brought so much joy to you. You couldn't help but be grateful for Lance in bringing you to meet her.

But as happy as you were, you couldn't help but also feel a slight twinge of guilt. You and Lance haven't had much time to spend together. But you managed to sneak in small moments, like now, when Anna was asleep and you could steal away a few moments with Lance.

As you lay in bed, Lance sat beside you, gently massaging your belly with oil. It was something he found that found helped you with the pain sometimes. You looked up at the ceiling, a small smile plastered on your face.

"How are you feeling?" Lance asked softly, his hands moving in gentle circles on your belly.

"Okay, I guess..." You replied with a smile.

Lance continued to massage your belly, then poured some oil over your exposed chest and continued with his massage . You closed your eyes and let out a content sigh.

!!!

Suddenly, you remembered something and sat up, a tinge of worry on your face.

"You locked the door, right? I don't want Anna coming in and seeing me like this..." You said, your voice filled with concern.

Lance couldn't help but laugh at your worried expression.

"The little bean is fast asleep, but yes, the door is locked. Now relax and enjoy the massage" Lance reassured you

You let out a small giggle and leaned back, feeling completely at ease in Lance's gentle and loving touch. He continued to massage your body, his hands moving with a soothing rhythm. After he was done, he was just looking at you with so much adoration in his eyes.

"What is the movement like?" He asked, his and gently caressing your belly

"I can't feel anything at the moment...and it hasn't caused any irritation either..." You smiled at him, Lance just simply nodded

He leaned down and placed a soft kiss over your belly, before making his way up to your exposed chest, leaving tingles all over your body, earning a soft chuckle from you.

"Thank you being such an angel to Anna, she looks so full of life thanks to you..." Lance said with the utmost sincerity, you smiled at him

"She really is precious..." You said, gently running your fingers through his blue locks

"The nurse did her weekly checkup on Anna and said that she is much better than before...you really had a positive effect on her and I'm so grateful for you, princess" Lance placed a soft kiss on your forehead
