The Road We Took

Chapter 27-How Much

Marco's POV

"Hi baby! You look so adorable! Hi! And you do too! You are just as adorable as your two older brothers!" both of my little ones were attached to my nipples; drinking their new lives away. Funny how if they were older that action would be frowned upon.

"Marco, babe, you need to rest. You just gave birth to twins not even 12 hours ago. You haven't rested and your body is clearly exhausted." I gave my boyfriend the meanest glare I could, which was probably not that threatening considering I was exhausted, and held our children firmer.

"No. I want to hold them as much as I can. I don't want to ever let them go" my head turned the other way and my eyes fell on a smiling Chase, who was feeding our little Alexis while watching us. 

"How are you feeling Marco?"

"I'm amazing. Now I know why you were so stubborn to always have Alexis on you. It's a wonderful feeling just having them near you" they've only been in this world for about 9 hours, and in that short lifespan, they've captured my heart and attention with no complaints from me. The I've been awake for 7 of those hours, and almost all of my time was spent looking at them and thinking about how their life would be. Would they be troublemakers? Or will they mostly behave? "I wish I could stay like this forever" my finger ran down my Sasha's face before doing the same to his younger brother.

"I wish so too, but please, you need to rest. If you don't then you'll have to stay here more time. Sleep, so that you can heal faster." a pout formed itself on my lips before I threw my head back into the bed and closed my eyes. " Fine, I'll rest." the soothing feeling of my children on my chest, drinking, and sleeping, lulled me into one of the best rests I'd have for the coming months.

Chase POV 

Once Marco's breath evened out and his head lolled to the side, Adam went over and covered him with a nice warm blanket. He laid a kiss on Marco's forehead before doing the same to the little one's on their momma's chest. He came over to me and gave me a kiss on the lips then squatted down and watched as his oldest son drank milk before falling asleep. A faint chuckle left my lips at the thought of the little fattie eating, sleeping, and pooping. I detached his little mouth from my nipple before setting him down on the bassinet next to my bed. 

"Must be good if the little squirt is always on it" what? I turned my head in Adam's direction just in time to see Adam's head bend down onto my left nipple and lick the bit of milk dropping down before engulfing it into his mouth and sucking. 

"A-Adam!" he detached from my nipple with one last lick before saying, "it is pretty good. Maybe he'll share with me" I felt heat rush to my cheeks and my jaw slacked as my brain couldn't process what had just happened. "A-Adam, you c-can't just d-do that. " I covered my nipples with my arm, embarrassment clear on my face. 

"Chase. Why are you hiding from me? I've seen everything haven't I?" his hands came up to mine and he pulled them  away from my chest, leaving me bare and exposed. I refused to make eye contact with him as he had wanted. 

"Because, I'm fat, and I have stretch marks" it was barely more than a whisper, but Adam had caught what I said and a determined look crossed his face. 

"You are not fat. You just gave birth to our son. You gained weight for 4 months in order to keep our unborn child safe and healthy. And even if you had gained weight without being pregnant, I wouldn't care. To me you are perfect. And so what if you have stretch marks? Lots of people have them. It doesn't change how my eyes see you. To me, you look amazing. You glow and shine every single second. In my eyes, there are no imperfections. And I've seen your stretch marks, I've seen the bruises your bitch of a mother gave you a few months ago. But they didn't make you any less beautiful. On the contrary; those stretch marks make me feel proud of myself. Because they show that I love you and that you love me to the point where we had a son. If that isn't a symbol of love then I don't know what is." my eyes wandered over to where Alexis was sleeping, then down to my sides where I saw the little pink scars until a hand guided my field of vision to Adam's face. 

"You are perfect Chase" a kiss on the lips, "don't you ever doubt it"

Tears had begun to escape my eyes and I did nothing to clean them. Because for me, they were a sign of how much his words meant to me, and how much I loved him.
