I'm Sorry

I found out we are having a girl and i couldn't be happier about it but the rest of everything is depressing.

I ignore Carter at every turn and i only speak to him about the boys and let me tell you i gave him hell for not being there for the ultra sound.

Was i pissed at him for what he did? Yes. Did i try to stop him from finding out our childs gender?hell no. He did that all on his own.

I walk to the bathroom and shower and change.

I put on mascara and some clear lip gloss and headed to the nursery and saw both boys up and Carter was with them.

Logan looked to me and smiled as he reached out for me "up mama" i smiled and walked to him and picked him up.

I know he is watching but i ignore it as i go and clean Logan up and dressed him.

And then settled for grey socks and grey binky with white baby vans and i set him down as he goys to the toy box to pick a toy.

"Can i have Liam please?"

"Yeah... Here ya go" he handed him to me and i do the same routine with him.

I put on his black socks and black binky with checkered baby vans and set him down as he goes to his brother.

I pick up the diaper bag and fill it with their stuff. I turn and see Carter and i raise an eyebrow.

"Can we talk Hope..." I tap my chin like I'm thinking about it and give a small smile. He has a glint of hope(so not an intended pun) in his eyes.

"Hmmm how about.... No" i turned on my heel with one boy on my hip and the other holding my hand as Carter follows behind us.

We head downstairs and i put them in the high chairs. They each kiss my belly and say "morning sissy" to my bump before i go and make their food.

I cut up bananas and watermelon and give them each peach oatmeal with milk in their bottles.

They now got all their teeths but im still scared they could break so i keep them on soft foods and soon sippy cups.

I turn and go back in the kitchen to see Carter waiting for me. I raise and eyebrow and he speaks up with a sigh.

"We really need to talk...please or you could just listen and then decide"

"No there is no explanation or reason for that"

"Please im begging you here Hope"

"What made you do it? Did you not feel satisfied? Did you not love us anymore? Did you feel like you got me so you think i wouldn't mind?"

"I had to do it for work and I'm always satisfied with you cause you make me satisfied and i love you and our kids and my princess and i knew you would mind and i shouldn't have gone as far as to have sex with her and for that i am... I'm sorry"

"Sorry can't fix this i mean were the hell were you when i found out our babies gender huh? Cause it sure as hell wasn't with me"

"I was in the lock up downstairs...with her"

"Why Carter?"

"Because she had information on a coming attack from a new threat... Can you understand now"

I look at him and all i see is sincerity and truth. Tears burn my eyes and i let one slip and he wipes it away and then we hug.

He kisses my forehead and looks into my eyes as he says "I'm sorry" i nod and give a small smile.

"It's ok but next time let me know and never go that far again or you can say bye to all of us"

He chuckles and smiles "Deal".

"Let's go eat... We are hungry" we chuckle and head to the dining room table.
