"I can't believe I slept with you," I told Marciello running a hand through my hair.
"Don't act like you didn't enjoy it," Marciello said, giving me a kiss on the lips.
"I did, but this doesn't mean that things are good between us. I wasn't planning on having sex with you until things were better between us. This is the last time this is happening," I said as I got out the bed and put my clothes back on.
My phone rang and Marciello grabbed it.
"Who is James?", he asked.
"My boss, now give me my phone," I said.
"Why is he calling you and why-
I grabbed the phone out of his hand and answered it.
"Hello," I said.
"Hey, are you doing okay?", he asked.
"Yeah, I'm doing good thanks for asking. How are you?," I asked him.
"Good, but I'm miserable without you in the office," he said.
I smiled slightly.
"I'm sure your fine. Martha's a good replacement," I said, teasing him.
He scoffed," Please she can hardly do anything right. She switched up all of my presentations and instead of getting me coffee she got me hot chocolate," he said.
"The hot chocolate part doesn't sound too bad," I said.
"Belle I'm allergic to chocolate," he dead-panned, making me laugh.
"Well if that's the case, then you should stay away from me," I said.
"I don't think that's possible. I'm barely making it now," he said.
I was about to respond, but Marciello threw my phone at the wall making it shatter into pieces.
"What the hell was that for!?", I yelled at him.
"You were on the phone fucking flirting with him right in front of me," Marciello yelled.
"We were not flirting, we were having a simple conversation!", I said to him.
"Please save the fucking lies Belle. I heard everything you guys were saying!", Marciello yelled.
"The whole conversation was innocent, your always so fucking jealous," I said to him.
"Well excuse me for not wanting my wife on the phone with a guy who's obviously in love with her," he said angrily.
"Marciello I don't have time to argue with you. If you want to mistake the conversation for something else then that's on you," I said as I went into my bathroom and took a shower.
Marciello joined me, but I wasn't talking to him.
After I was done showering, I dried off and put on some new clothes. Then I went back into the bathroom and brushed my teeth.
"I'm sorry bebé," Marciello said as he stepped out the shower, wrapping a towel around his waist.
"For what?", I asked.
"For yelling at you," he said.
"And for over exaggerating?", I asked.
"I wasn't over exaggerating, that man clearly likes you. You even told me he kissed you," Marciello said.
"Your right, but I don't like him so you don't have anything to worry about," I said.
"Good," he replied as he leaned in and kissed me.
We broke apart as I heard the babies crying.
"I'll go check on them," I told Marciello.
I left out my room and went into the babies' room.
I changed their diapers and they soon quieted down.
"Food, food,'' they mumbled.
"Okay I'll make you something," I said as I washed my hands and then dried them.
I picked them up and brought them into the dining room, sitting them in their high chairs.
I grabbed them a bowl and poured some Cheerios in it.
"Can I get food too, mommy?", Marciano asked.
"Yeah I'm about to cook, but you can go get a snack out the pantry," I told him.
I took out the chicken and prepared it, since it was already defrosted.
Then I put it in the oven. After that I got started on the mashed potatoes.
I let that cook, setting timers for both of them.
~~~~~~~~Sometime Later~~~~~~~~~~
Dinner was served and the kids, Marciello, and I were eating.
After we ate, Marciello cleaned the dishes while I gave the babies their feeding and made sure they burped.
I held them for a while before they tired out and I put them in their cribs.
"Did you brush your teeth before bed?", I asked Marciano.
"Yeah," he said, climbing into his bed.
"Good, I love you. Sweet dreams," I said, giving him a kiss on the forehead.
"I love you too mommy. Good night," Marciano said.
I left out the room, leaving the door slightly ajar.
I went into my bathroom and brushed my teeth then flossed.
"You brush your teeth a lot," Marciello commented.
"I have to keep my teeth healthy. You need to brush your teeth too," I told him.
"I already did, I brush twice a day like a normal person. You brush your teeth like 5 times a day. Your gonna wear your teeth down and then your going to have dentures," Marciello said.
I rolled my eyes and got in bed with him.
"Come here," Marciello said, pulling me closer.
"I don't know why your trying this, you're not getting any," I said.
"I'm not trying to get anything I just want to hold you," Marciello said.
"Right," I said, snuggling into his arms.
I laid my head on his chest while he stroked my back up and down soothingly.
