Can't Fall in Love Without You (Christian Yelich)

35

Christian smiled and took a deep breath as he woke up, hands traveling down to Elizabeth's belly. She was showing just a little bit, a small bump to prove their love. As he thought about his Ellie growing the physical manifestation of their love, he only grew more attracted to her. She was the sexiest woman in the world, and her growing his baby proved it.

Just the thought of it made him hard.

"Hmm. Morning," his beautiful Ellie smiled, rubbing her ass into his hard dick. "Someone's starting every morning off at attention," she smirked and flipped them over, sinking down on him.

Christian moaned and grabbed her hips and guided the pace before running his hands up her body. "You're so beautiful. I love you so much," he whispered and pulled her down for a kiss. "I love that I can do this bare."

Elizabeth smiled and kissed him, thrusting down and wrapping her hands in his thick curls. It had been a while since he got a haircut, so the curls were even more defined.

"I love you," she gasped, reaching down to rub her clit as he came. She wasn't far behind, Christian's name spilling from her lips as she let go.

"We should shower. We get to go see our baby in an hour," Christian was giddy, face as bright as the lights he played under.

"Hmm I can't wait," she smiled. The baby would look more human at this one, which always made it easier for dads. They could see fingers, toes, and a little profile. And she couldn't wait.

"And there it is. A perfect lil baby," the tech smiled, the joyous sound of a growing baby's heart filling the room.

"See? Our baby," Elizabeth smiled, gently squeezing Christian's hand. She dreamed of this. Holding his hand as their baby's heartbeat filled the room. Carrying his baby.

"Our baby," he whispered, squeezing her hand as tears rolled down his cheeks.

"Everything is looking good for baby," Kaitlin smiled. "And Mama is doing wonderfully. Right on track in development, good weight gain, and vitals on point. So far everything is perfect."

"Thank you," Christian smiled, kissing Elizabeth. "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you," he whispered, shaking from how overwhelmed he was. He loved her so so much and he was so scared. He was terrified every second of every day that he was going to lose her and their baby. He couldn't take it. He wouldn't want to live in a world without Ellie.

"I'm okay, Christian. Our baby is so perfect. I'm okay. It's okay to be scared. It's okay. I'll be here through every second. I'm here," Elizabeth whispered and held him as he sobbed with a hand on her belly. "We're okay... I love you, and baby loves her daddy..."

"Her? It's a girl?" He whispered, looking into her eyes.

"I don't know... just a hunch," she smiled a bit, kissing him softly.

"I don't care. As long as mama and baby are okay," he said softly, kissing her belly.

He was so happy.

It was two weeks after the appointment and Christian was in New York for a road trip against the Yankees. Elizabeth, meanwhile, was working overtime because a mom demanded she be the one to deliver her baby and the poor woman was on hour 46 of labor.

Which meant Ellie was on hour 53 of work. In a row.

"Kaitlin. I'm going to grab a snack and power nap. Please check Mrs. Donaldson in an hour. If she isn't an 8 or higher, please don't wake me. If she's at an 8, give her a pitocin drip and find me," Elizabeth asked her friend, who just came in.
