"Happy New Year, boys!" I called as we dropped them off at my parents' house. "I love you!"

Bobby requested we get this New Year's Eve and beginning of New Year's Day alone. I wasn't gonna lie, I was actually hoping he'd want to spend the beginning of the new year alone. Ever since baby number three had umbilical cord issues in November, it seemed all we did was take care of the boys and worry about the baby.

Plus, we hadn't had an "alone" night since the early part of December. It'd only been a month, but it felt like forever.

As soon as we made it home, I ran to the bathroom. It seemed as though the third baby really liked to keep me on my toes. Pushing on my bladder unexpectedly, moving around so it was low on air more than three times in the past month, morning sickness every day (especially around eggs) for the first three months, and cravings like crazy. It wouldn't give me a break.

"Hey, you okay?" Bobby asked after I came out. "I mean, it's not like I was in that big of a rush. You could've peed at your parents' if you had to go that bad."

"Oh, no," I said. I pointed to my stomach and he got the point before I even started explaining anything.

"Well, what do you want to do, my dear?"

Ever since we'd had kids, it was like Bobby and I couldn't handle ourselves when they weren't around. We were full-time parents, and that's all we'd focus on for weeks until we were alone. Then we couldn't function properly.

I sighed. "No idea."

After a few seconds of silence, I piped up again. "We could..." my voice trailed off as I got closer to him, pinning him closer to the wall until we finally kissed.

I grabbed his hands before he took control and placed them on my hips. He slowly turned us so my back was against the wall as I got as close as possible with the small bump I had from the baby.

As soon as my back hit the wall, he pulled away. "Babe-"

"I know, I know. You won't."

"Can I explain myself a little?"

I just looked at the ground in answer.

"It's not that I don't want to for you, or that I don't want to any more than you. It's because I know that you'd rather keep our baby safe than yourself. I know you'd regret everything right after we were done, and I know that I can't let that happen. I love you a lot, but I know you don't want this. Do you?"

"I don't know. I feel like I don't personally but..."

"Hm?" he urged.

"I guess my body does?"

"See? I can't do it right now. I can't risk anything and you know it's for the best of all of us," he said.

I sighed and looked back up at him before he leaned down and kissed me again.

"Good for now?"

I shook my head no and he smiled. "Not surprised."

He leaned down to kiss me again, so forcefully my head was pressed between his and the wall tightly. His hands found the bottom of my shirt and drew circles on my sides before he pulled away. I looked up at him as my goosebumps faded away.

"Good for now?" he repeated.

I nodded my head and he turned away from me. He walked to the couch and sat down.

"What would you like to do, my dear?" he asked again.

"I don't know. It's like everything I come up with doesn't involve taking advantage of the fact that the boys aren't here too," I answered.
