Tiara

Quincy doesn't say much the next morning.

I play with my fingers nervously as he wordlessly flips bacon on the stove, deeply concentrated.

When I woke up this morning he was nowhere to be seen.

I wonder what's going through his head.

"You're just going to stand there? Or are you going to come give daddy some sugar?"
He growls, his back still towards me.

I bite my lip, walking forward cautiously.

He turns, pulls me close, and kisses me softly.

Completely leaves me breathless.

"Mmmh, you give me the best memories."
I sigh, patting his cheek.

"You keep looking at me like that and a baby's going to be in you no later than dinner."
He bites his lip.

My heart flips.

"Yeah right. I can barely move."
I croak.

My voice is very hoarse.

"Ah, you down for the ole Quincy aftermath treatment?"
He grins knowingly.

I frown.

"What's that?"

"You just wait, I'll take good care of you after breakfast, my love."
He says softly.

I sigh as he wordlessly takes my hand and leads me to the bathroom.

I gasp softly as I take in all of the candles and the soft romantic music playing in the background.

"Come along, lovie. Don't worry, I forgive you for completely ruining my back by the way. It was definitely worth it."
He grumbles, helping me unbutton the buttons to his shirt that I'm wearing.

All I can do is stare as he  gently cups my face in his big hands afterwards.

"Oh god. Look how swollen your lips are. How about we hold off on more sex until next week, yes?"
Concern flashes through his eyes as he helps me into the tub.

I sigh, sinking down into the steaming hot water.

He dims the lights.

"Eh, I'll be good by Wednesday."
I mutter.

"That's my girl."
He chuckles, sitting on the closed toilet seat.

My eyes flutter closed as I lean my head back.

"I never thought that I'd get to see you like this, you know?"

When I crack an eye open, he's got his elbows propped up on his knees, his chin in his hands.

I smile tiredly.

"Well...."

"I think that this...is the best thing I've seen since I got my vision. All I wanted was to see you happy. Way better than I ever imagined. Way better."
He tells me seriously.
