"Because he cries for you but fine," I turned over so I wasn't facing him and moved away from him. He instantly picked up on the fact that he said something to upset me. He furrowed his brow again and instantly knew what he said was the wrong response.

Reign shifted himself in bed and gently moved closer to me. He carefully put a hand gently on my hip and scooted himself against me. He gently moved his fingers against my hip to try and get me to roll over and face him again. "Hey, listen, I was just asking. There's no need to get upset," he said gently.

He sighed gently and moved his hand from my hip to gently slide under the shirt I was wearing and rub my stomach gently again. "You know I am more than willing to take him with me, and I hate it when he cries for me when I have to leave. I just need to know what you want." He mumbled quietly to me.

"I already asked and it is hard being at home all the time with the boys, especially Levi since he is a daddy's boy," I replied as I put my head on the pillow.

He pulled himself closer to me, moving himself so that his chest was pressed against my back. He gently put his arm around my waist and pressed a gentle kiss to the back of my neck.

He rubbed the spot he had just kissed gently before moving his lips against my ear and whispering gently. "Why didn't you tell me that being home all day was hard, love? I would've done something to make it less difficult for you," he said gently while massaging my stomach gently as his hand slid across the bump lightly.

"I didn't want to be annoying," I mumbled quietly.

He furrowed his brow slightly when I mumbled that I didn't want to be annoying. He sighed gently and rolled his eyes slightly to himself. Reign gently squeezed the arm around my waist tighter and mumbled back to me. "You're not annoying and you'd never be annoying. How many times do I have to tell you that, love?" He said gently.

I rolled over so I was facing him "I know I am annoying when I am pregnant, I'm sorry for my terrible mood," I looked into his dark brown eyes.

He didn't agree with that at all and he was going to tell me that and tell me, again, that I wasn't annoying. Reign moved his hand from the back of my neck and gently caressed the side of my face. "I swear, stop apologizing for your mood and for being pregnant. You can't help how you feel sometimes, love," he said gently.

He gently moved his thumb across my cheek and moved his eyes over my face. He hated seeing the look on my face when I was apologizing to him for not having a good mood. "And you're not annoying when you're pregnant. Hell, you could never be annoying. You could be pissed at me all the time and you still wouldn't be annoying. So stop acting like you are, please?" he mumbled to me.

"I just don't want to hurt your feelings baby," I moved closer to him.

He let out a frustrated sigh at my words. He wished I wouldn't worry about hurting his feelings. He didn't give a damn if his feelings were hurt, all he wanted was for me to be okay and feel better.

He wrapped his arm around me once again and squeezed me against him, holding me almost possessively against him. "You're not going to hurt my feelings, hell even you being angry and yelling at me doesn't hurt my feelings, you know I can be a stubborn bastard," he mumbled.

He paused and gently ran his fingers through my hair. "And to be completely honest, you could throw a fit at me and I'd love every second of it. You're just too damn perfect for me to care about being yelled at," he continued to mumble against my hair as his fingers played with my hair gently.

"I am scared that one day you will leave and not come back... I wouldn't want to lose what we have over something I would do," I said quietly, as my mind started to overthink and I was getting upset at the same time.

Reign gently moved his hand to the back of my head so he could pull me closer to him. He moved his lips against my ear as he spoke to me. "Please...don't ever think about that, I'm never going to leave you. I'd never do that, I can't even imagine leaving you. You're my whole world, love."

He gently nuzzled his face against my neck. "And you're not going to do something that's going to make me leave, I swear on my life, you're stuck with me no matter what you do," he mumbled against my neck as he held me tighter against him.

He pulled his head back and moved his hand to move my chin up so he could look into my eyes. "And I don't care if you're going to yell at me, cry on me, or hit me, you couldn't get rid of me even if you tried. You're stuck with me, so please don't let yourself think I'd ever leave you and not come back. Nothing you could do would ever make me leave you. You mean too damn much to me."

"I would never hit you and you know that," I cried into his embrace.

He knew I would never physically hit him, but he still felt like he needed to mention it. He felt his heart break even more as I started to cry against him. Reign continued to hold me against him in his tight embrace, gently rubbing my back as he held me. "I know, I know you would never. I mentioned that mainly to prove my point, I knew you'd never hit me," he mumbled against the top of my head.
