Ed’s POV:
We finally made it home from the hospital all in one piece. Taylor was doing remarkably well, so they decided to send her home a few days earlier than expected. We hadn’t exactly had time to decorate Aiden’s room, so we decided to do that today. I started painting while Taylor and Poppy ran to the store to get a few different things for the walls. I had put Aiden in his little swing and he was fast asleep. He was a great baby. He finally slept through the night just about a week after we got him home. He almost never cries, and is always happy. He’s happiest when he’s in my arms. (Taylor says that’s not true, but she’s just jealous).
His hair is starting to grow in and of course, it’s going to be red, just like mine. But He has Taylor’s big blue eyes. He’s the cutest. I could go on and on, but all I have to say is Taylor and I did good work! Haha! I can hear the girls getting home and Poppy runs up the stairs and is at my legs in no time.
“Daddy! Daddy! We got Aiden the best thing for his wall!”
“And what would that be?”
Taylor walked in the room with a giant poster of her and I on tour together back from just a few short years ago. We were singing Everything Has Changed, and it was towards the end of the song, and the photographer had captured the perfect moment. We were both smiling at each other and our eyes were filled with the look of love. The poster was literally perfect.
“Poppy, that is the best thing for his room! Good job, sweetheart!”
I leaned over and kissed her on top of the head and Taylor walked over to me. I put one arm around her waist and pulled her in for a kiss.
“You’re perfect, you know that right?”
“Thanks baby. I think you’re pretty perfect too.”
“I love you Taylor.”
“And I love you.”
The girls finally pulled the rest of their purchases out of the bags so I could see it all. They had gotten wooden letters that spelled out Aiden, that were blue with white polka dots painted on them. We decided that would go right above his crib. Taylor had also gotten a mobile that had sailboats and anchors dangling from it. It was perfect since his room was going to be a nautical theme. Next came the crib bedding, which was covered in sailboats as well.
“You girls did good shopping for Aiden!”
“Yeah! I helped pick it all out!”
“You picked all the right stuff, Poppy girl!”
Poppy was so excited. She loved her little brother. She was very protective of him. Whenever we had people over to visit she always stayed right next to him, whether he was in his swing or in someone’s arms. She always liked running her hands along the top of his head, but we had to tell her to be careful because he still had the soft spot on top that all babies have until their skull is fully developed. She gave him kisses all the time, and all he did was smile. I don’t know how Taylor and I got blessed with such amazing kids.
I went back to painting and Taylor took Poppy to her room for a nap. Poppy resisted, but she was so tired from shopping that she fell asleep within a few minutes. I was almost done with painting when I felt arms around my waist from behind me. I put the paint roller down and turned around, knowing that my beautiful wife was behind me. I pulled her in tight and kissed her on the forehead.
“Ed, I miss you.”
“And I miss you, love. Both of the kids are asleep, what do you say we go lay down in our bed for a bit?”
“Aiden can’t be in here alone. Even if he’s asleep.”
“Then we can roll him into our room, that way we can hear him if he wakes up or starts to cry. Does that sounds good baby?”
“That sounds perfect.”
My lips met Taylor’s and instantly, my body began to ache for her. I needed her. As much as I didn’t want to stop kissing her, I broke off and wheeled Aiden into our room. Taylor’s hand never left mine, and as soon as I had Aiden situated, Taylor was on the bed, with me crawling on top of her. My lips met hers again, and I could tell we both were starting to crave each other.
My hand began to make its way up her shirt, and finally got to her breasts. I took one in my hand and began to massage it. I knew Taylor liked that because she started kissing me harder. Before I knew it, her hand had made its way into my pants and she had taken me into her hand and was rubbing me up and down. Almost instantly I was hard. Taylor broke away from our kiss, only to say a few words.
“Ed, I want you. I need you. Please make love to me.”
Damn, that was sexy. We hadn’t made love since before Aiden was born, so I did as I was told.
I pulled Taylor’s shirt up over her head and threw it to the floor. I kissed down her neck, down her collarbone, and behind her ear. She then pulled my shirt off over my head and tossed it aside. Our lips met again, and this time, neither of us were going to break that kiss. So I carefully unbuttoned her shorts and pulled them down so they landed on the floor. My pants were already half way off, so I just used my legs to get them off the rest of the way. I broke the kiss for just a few seconds while I got her panties off and entered her. She gasped, but I knew that was a good thing.
My lips went back to hers and her arms made their way around to my back, and she dug her fingernails into my back. Fuck, that’s sexy. She was pulling me closer, and I loved when she did that. I kept thrusting in and out at a slow speed, because I didn’t want to hurt her. But she kept telling me to go faster, so I did after a while.
The sounds she was making were out of this world. She kept moaning my name, until finally she was quiet for about a minute, and I knew she was getting close. So I pumped harder and faster, until I felt her tighten around me, and her body turned into jello. She screamed my name just as she was climaxing, and I loved it. So much so that just seconds after she was done, I came.
We laid there for a few minutes after we were both done, with me still inside her. Her hands made their way to my face, and she stroked my cheek and then ran her fingers through my hair.
“I love you, Taylor. And I always will.”
“I love you too, Ed. Forever.”
Our lips met again, and we got lost in each other again, until cries brought us back down to earth. Aiden had woken up, and I’m sure he was hungry. I finally pulled out, and Taylor jumped up out of bed and ran over and picked Aiden up from his swing. She came back and sat down in bed next to me, and I ran my hands over his head and down his arms. His crying got a little softer, but I knew and Taylor knew he was probably hungry. As soon as she started feeding him, his crying stopped, and we knew he was happy.
Taylor looked over at me, and my eyes met hers. I leaned over and kissed her on her lips, before looking down at Aiden and realizing what a wonderful gift he was and how I was so happy that he was alive. I will always wonder what it would’ve been like with another little girl in our lives, but right now, I had to be happy for what I have. I have an amazing wife, daughter, and son. I have the perfect life. And right now, this is the only place I want to be.
