"No Luke you can sleep on the couch" I said standing with my arms folded, in slight frustration.

He wasn't listening, but that shouldn't surprise me really, should it?

"Laura why can't we just share I don't want to sleep on the damn couch it's uncomfortable" Luke complained

"Well if you want to try sort 'us' out then you better stop complaining Luke. You are sleeping on the couch and I'll make it up for you, just please be my partner and not argue or fight against me. We have two babies to raise not argue over stupid things like where someone is suppose to sleep. I've made up my mind and it's final that you are sleeping on the couch, just please don't fight me Luke" I said

"I'm sorry Laur, I don't mean to fight you." Luke said as Logan began crying.

"I'll get him" I sighed as I walked over to his crib and picked him up carefully

"Mummy's here darling, just stop crying" I whispered to Logan as I kissed his forehead

"Laura, I can look after him just go have some rest" Luke said as he put his arm on my shoulder and assured me

"But Luke, he needs me, I'm Logan's mother" I said as Logan stopped crying

"That's irrelevant I'm his father, just Laura please go and rest. I promise I'll look after the twins just take a nap, you haven't had any time to relax since you've gotten home from the hospital" Luke said as I put Logan back in his crib

"I don't need rest Luke, I'm fine. Just can you please get me a drink?" I asked as Luke went over to the fridge and came back handing me a bottle of water

"Thank you" I said as I walked off to my bedroom grabbing a sheet, pillow and blanket out of my wardrobe before returning to the living room and making up the couch

"I can do it" Luke said as he taken the sheet out of my hands carefully

"You don't have to Luke, you can have the bed. I'll sleep out here so I'm closer to the twins" I said

"You're not just saying that to stop us from talking about who sleeps where are you?" Luke asked

"No" I responded

"You are a horrible liar, c'mon we can share your bed. remember we have shared before" Luke stated

"Yeah and look what happened nine months later you have been given the title of a father" I said

"One of the best titles I could be given, thanks" Luke said as he held my hand whilst I sat down on the couch

"What's the best title you could be given?" I asked

"Your boyfriend, husband or anything which means we are together" Luke said which bought a small smile to my face as I looked at Luke's eyes, chocolate brown nothing had changed.

Luke was still the guy I was in love with the first time we began our relationship

"Remember when you got ice cream all over my shirt?" I asked changing the subject

"But then you claimed that you needed a hug even though it was revenge for the ice cream" Luke responded with a small chuckle at the fond memory

"You loved my hug, and you can't deny it" I claimed

"Pfft, no" Luke joked

"Liar liar, pants on fire" I said as I began quietly laughing on the inside, whilst I smiled. These were the types of things Luke and me loved about each other. Random little jokes, memories or facts about each other.
