Did Someone Call A Nurse? (Alessia Russo x McCabe!Reader)

From the Pretender Series

Based on this request

It had been a long day at camp. You’d started early this morning with a staff meeting before the team had even been woken up for breakfast. You’d slipped out of bed this morning, somehow not managing to wake Alessia, before heading to the shower and getting changed.

“Leaving so soon?” Alessia whispered with a smirk from bed.

“Have a meetin’ before breakfast” you explained, lips curling into a smile at how adorable she looked snuggled into your pillow.

“Didn’t take you for a one night stand kind of person anymore” Alessia teased, luring you back to bed with her finger as you rolled your eyes and gave in.

“Save me a seat at breakfast, beautiful” you said before she pulled you in for a kiss. “Good mornin’, by the way”

“Morning” she smiled, kissing you again before you eventually pushed yourself back off the bed and headed off to your meeting.

Staff meetings were always the same, led by Sarina who would give instructions on what the day was going to look like. It was then your job to relay what Sarina said to the team now since you got your promotion, so you would always take heaps of notes while she spoke.

When the meeting ended, the team had started coming down to the canteen for breakfast. You walked into the canteen with Sarina, chatting through detailed things for certain players. Leah always found it amusing when you were stood beside Sarina, because you cleared her easily by over a foot.

“Your head, it’s okay this morning?” Sarina asked.

“Yeah, all good” you replied.

“Alessia told me you hurt it a few days ago” she added as you sighed, hating when Alessia made a big deal of it.

“Yeah, I was fixin’ the sink in the house and the dog started barkin’ so I shot my head up and whacked it off the sink” you explained.

“You always seem to have things broken in the house” Sarina chuckled.

“I live with those two muppets” you smirked, nodding your head towards Alessia and Leah who were coming through the canteen door.

“Make sense” she whispered, before taking her cup of tea from the machine. “Morning ladies” Sarina smiled, heading off to a table with some other staff members.

“Morning” Alessia and Leah both hummed back.

“There’s our favourite person” the lady working behind the canteen shouted as all the workers almost toppled over the counter to serve you.

“Mornin’” you nodded. “Can I get an omelette and a cup of tea?” You asked, watching as they all ran in different directions to get your breakfast ready.

“Decaf tea” Alessia intervened. “You know you can’t drink caffeine” Alessia frowned.

“Need it this mornin’ Less, my head’s melted” you explained.

“And your head will be pounding if you drink it, so no” Alessia shook her head, cupping your face and pressing a kiss to your forehead. “Did you take your tablets this morning?” Alessia asked.

“Yeah, right before ye woke up” you mumbled back.

“Here’s your omelette and your decaf tea, Mac” the canteen woman smiled, sliding it over to you.

“Cheers” you smiled back, picking the plates up and placing them on a tray before going over to the fridge to grab a fruit bowl, and stopping to get some toast and pastries.

“Less can you go distract her? It’ll take her like 5 minutes to finish that and I’m just not ready for her to shout let’s go in that space of time” Leah groaned. You had a habit of finishing your breakfast and calling for the daily meeting to start straight away, not wanting to waste time. You didn’t care if people brought food or drinks into your meetings, as long as they were quiet.

“Fine, but she’s hell bent on not wasting a singular second in the day so I can only hold her off for so long” Alessia reminded your mutual best friend. Your wife to be grabbed her breakfast, although, the entire staff weren’t as friendly to anybody else like they just had been with you. They weren’t rude to anybody, but they all adored you, because you would spend your entire downtime on camp in there being fed.

Sometimes you just sat with your notebook, jotting things down or going over notes while they brought you little snacks to keep you occupied.

Alessia found you scribbling down notes at a table on your own, already nearly done your food by the time she got over.

“Two seconds, Less” you mumbled, continuing to scribble whatever it was you were writing down.

“Using your little manager voice on me?” Alessia teased, sitting opposite you and placing her hand over your very worn out notebook. “Can you take a breath for a second, baby?” She asked, waiting for your eyes to flick up to hers. Alessia never really acted like this in front of the team when you were working, because you’d had a previous conversation about setting boundaries. So, you knew when you saw Leah staring coupled with Alessia being affectionate that something wasn’t right.

“Ye are up to somethin’” you frowned when your eyes met hers.

“What? No, I’m just-”

“Let’s go” you shouted loudly to the entire room, picking up your mug and the remainder of your breakfast, munching on it on the way to the meeting room.

“Fuck sake Alessia” Leah groaned. “You actually sped the process up” Leah added, pulling a slice of toast from the toaster and marching to the meeting room.

You killed the lights in the room the second you got in, heading over to the computer to set up the slideshow you’d made in the meeting this morning. The room very quickly filled up, with tired looking faces from the players and the coaches who were all fresh as a daisy. You ran through the plan, and every single person in the room was glued to you. Since you’d became the assistant manager, you’d been shown nothing but respect by the team, the staff and Sarina.

“Finish off and then up to the gym in 15 minutes please” you said at the end, as everyone stood up. One of the staff members had flicked the lights on to full blast and you instantly shut your eyes and retook your seat, placing your head in your hands.

“Move” Alessia huffed, pushing by the group leaving as her head swung back towards you the second the lights went on and noticing you taking the full effect of it. “Leah” Alessia snapped, pointing towards the light switch to get the skipper to sprint over and flick the lights back off.

“Got it” Leah shouted, turning the lights to a lower level, one that was manageable for you.

“Baby, you okay?” Alessia asked, coming up to where you were sat with your head in your hands.

“Just got a bit dizzy” you mumbled quietly. “Sorry”

“Don’t apologise” Alessia shook her head and squeezed your hand. “Sit down for a minute, and take it easy”

“There’s no rush, Mac” Leah added, standing a bit behind Alessia. “Lights are turned down for you now” Leah informed you, so you knew when your head went up you wouldn’t be hit with beaming bright lights again.

“I’m grand” you confirmed, rubbing your eyes before eventually looking upwards. Alessia gave Leah a look which your housemate knew meant to go away. Alessia looked at Leah like that often.

“I’ll see you in the gym” Leah said, as she left the room and headed upstairs to get her runners.

“Here” Alessia hummed, pulling your box out of her pocket.

“No” you shook your head, pushing her hand away.

“It’s clearly bad today after you hit it at home” Alessia argued back. “Just while we’re in the gym and the music is on” she pleaded, moving the box further toward you as you eventually sighed and took them off her. The doctor had recommended in high volume situations that you wore little ear plugs that lowered the sound decibels by a significant amount. You just hated wearing them, despite them being barely noticeable.

“Fine” you grunted, standing up a bit too quickly as you lost your balance and Alessia caught you. “I’m fine” you moaned. You constantly got stubborn when your head was bad, and Alessia looked after you, she really looked after you, but she hated when you came with an attitude.

“I’m just trying to help, Y/n” Alessia snapped back at you.

“I don’t need your help. I don’t need ye tellin’ Sarina when I’ve hit my head. I don’t need ye makin’ a big deal everytime my head gets sore. You’re makin’ me look unprofessional so just stop tryin’ to act like you’re my nurse or somethin’” you scoffed. “It’s a small minor thing, nobody even cares about it, and it’s not that big of a deal” you added before you walked out of the room and down towards the fitness centre.

It had became a bit of a running joke with the England team that Alessia acted as if she was in fact your nurse. So much so, that an unnamed teammate had gifted Alessia a little nurse outfit that you’d managed to convince her to wear twice, until Leah walked in and ruined the whole vibe. It did however piss Alessia off that you acted like your head injury wasn’t a serious thing, even though it had ended your playing career.

You stood in the gym, little plugs tucked into your ears that made it seem like the music playing wasn’t blaring from the speaker. You let the fitness coaches take over at the gym, so you were just stood to the side, scribbling in your notebook as per usual.

“Does she ever stop writing?” Ella chuckled, nudging Alessia to look in your direction. Ella expected a more detailed response than the shrug Alessia had just given her before continuing on lifting her weight. “Are you alright?” Ella asked.

“She’s just being stubborn” Alessia groaned quietly. “She hit her head last week and she’s been a bit wobbly since. I told Sarina and-”

“You know she’s stubborn” Ella interrupted her. “You know she doesn’t like people knowing, Jesus, she didn’t tell the doctors at Barcelona for the entire time she was there” Ella reminded her.

“I know, but I’m her girlfriend. I’ve been looking after that big head for 5 years” Alessia sighed.

“Big head is on the move” Ella whispered, before turning back to the weights, watching you walk over to the two of them.

“Yes?” Alessia raised her eyebrow, placing her hand on her hip. She felt a little less annoyed at your outburst when she saw your ear plugs in.

“I’m just goin’ out to the pitch to get set up” you mumbled.

“Okay, I’ll see you out there” Alessia nodded, attempting to turn around but your outstretched hand stopped her.

“I’m sorry” you pouted. “It’s just been real sore the last few days” you explained.

“I know” Alessia sighed, squeezing your hand before pulling you into a hug. “It’s okay” she smiled, brushing her finger over your eyebrow.

“I’ll see ye on the pitch” you said, kissing her cheek quickly before running off to pick Sarina up from her office.

“Russo, that’s the future England manager you are shagging!” Georgia shouted as the girls burst out laughing and Alessia’s cheeks went bright pink.

“Nurse Lessi, you best be taking good care of her” Keira smirked, eyes falling straight to the disgusted looked on Leah’s face when she was reminded of the night in your living room.

“We all agreed for my sake to stop with the nurse jokes” Leah whined.

-

When the team got to the pitch, Alessia found you off to the side, notebook stretched open and you talking to Sarina about something. It often upset Alessia that you’d had to retire early, knowing how amazing of a career you had and would have continued to have had your head been looked after better. But when she seen you in this dynamic, looking completely relaxed and comfortable, she knew that this was what you were meant to be doing for your entire career.

Sarina had seemed to be taking a bit more of a backseat lately and letting you lead a lot of things, and you weren’t really sure as to why.

The coaches led a warm up before you came in to talk through drills. You never got involved in the drills, it was just too risky with your head, so you were on your way back to the side of the pitch when you heard Grace’s voice shout “heads”. You felt the ball thump the back of your head, and you felt a sudden rush of pain zing to the spot it had hit.

Sarina was quick to run to your side as your hand wrapped around your head and you hunkered to the floor to stop you from falling. You could feel Sarina’s hands on your shoulder which were very quickly replaced with a more familiar set of hands, cupping your cheeks.

“Take her up to the room” Sarina whispered to Alessia, who nodded back to her manager.

“Do you think you can stand, baby?” Alessia asked.

“Just give me a minute” you mumbled, hearing the sound of Leah shouting in the background at who you presumed was Grace. “Tell her to stop” you said, as Alessia waved over to get Leah to be quiet and come and help you up instead. The pair eventually pulled you to your feet, and when your eyes adjusted, you realised the entire session had stopped, and everyone looked sick.

“Come on” Alessia tugged at your arm gently.

“Will ye’s get on with the drill?” You shouted at them as Sarina clapped her hands to get everyone to refocus and restart the drill. “Why are they all stopped?” You asked as you leaned against Alessia, who was walking you back to your room.

“Because, despite you thinking they don’t, everyone here cares about you and that big, delicate head” Alessia explained, continuing to pull you along to your room.

When she got you there, she sat you down on the bed, instructing you to lie down as she went and got everything she needed.

“What ye doin’ in there?” You frowned, sitting up in the bed to try and look into the bathroom through the mirror. The bathroom door swung open and out strutted Alessia, with the tiny little nurse outfit on. “Oh, hello” you smirked.

“We’ll talk about why you packed this later” Alessia began. “But did you call for a nurse?” She asked.

“Screamed for one, actually” you smugly added.

“Lie down, I’ll need to check you” she giggled, straddling your lap as she sat down and gently pressing a kiss to your lips. “Are you okay to-”

“It’s not my head that’ll be hittin’ this” you laughed, tapping the headboard behind you.

[arsenalsrusso23]

Alessia Russo, "i want you, nobody else" at a party

prized cow II a.russo

"what about her? or him? or her? or her? or him?" you rolled your eyes at the younger girls insistent pointing, smacking her hand down and shaking your head.

"none of them?" vic gasped in shock, two drinks too many having her squinting up at you as you couldn't help but chuckle. "no shock you're single mate, standards are too high." kyra added on with a tut as you shoved her where you were stuck sat between them.

"its not them-" "-its you!" kyra and vic chimed out in sync, sharing a look and bursting out laughing causing your cheeks to heat up bright red. "shut up! i'm not that predictable. am i?" you mumbled, necking your drink as the dutch beside you patted your leg.

"you are." both of them spoke in sync again, their loud rambunctious laughter having you wince, thankfully drowned out by the thundering bass pumping in the club you'd all met up at for katies birthday.

thing one and thing two still continuing on their mission to hook you up with a stranger, something you'd long given up begging them to stop, you caught lia's eye across the room as she glanced over, giving her a pleading look which had her lips curling in amusement.

"you two!" the girls beside you fell silent as the swiss appeared, giving them a stern look and pointing her thumb behind her, how quickly vic and kyra cleared off making you grin as lia replaced them sitting beside you.

"what is wrong hm? you have been sat here all night!" lia questioned as you snaked a mouthful of her drink before she snatched it away. "i have not! i was dancing with your girlfriend and laia just ten minutes ago. the girlfriend you haven't even told half the team about!" you teased as she gave you a look.

"stop deflecting." "i am not!"

another look.

"fine. i'm just sick of everyone trying to set me up with someone, why won't they just mind their own business and leave my love life to me?" you huffed moodily, crossing one leg over the other and exhaling.

"they're just trying to help-" "i don't need help! i'm happy, i am." you pushed with a frown, lia slinging an arm over you as you sighed and leaned into her.

"i will have a word to the girls about backing off." the older girl murmured, pinching your cheek as a small smile crept back onto your face. "thank you." you gave her a side hug, a sense of relief beginning to settle in.

"besides. i already told you, ana is single!" you leapt away from the swiss with a grimace on your face. "lia!" you huffed in betrayal as she grinned, downing the last of her drink.

"only joking." she assured patting your knee and starting to stand to head over to the bar. "you are not her type anyway!" the swiss winked, disappearing to grab another drink as you shouted after her and flipped her off.

catching kyra and vic speaking to rosa you noticed all three seemed to be trying to sneak glances over to you, and not wanting to wait around and see what they were plotting you quickly stood and made a beeline toward the bathroom.

once inside you exhaled heavily, the moment the door slammed behind you the quiet that followed much needed to help you clear your head as you started toward the sink.

before you could even take another breath the door banged open again, a blonde blur zooming through and slamming it closed after herself as bright blue eyes met yours.

"hi." "hi."

you couldn't help but smile as you noticed the slight blush on her cheeks, the same you could feel creeping up the back of your neck as she stepped closer.

"i feel like i haven't seen you all night." alessia pondered, her fingers nudging yours where your arm by your side and you'd be lying if you said you didn't feel the bolts of electricity which shot up at your arm at her touch.

"i've been avoiding you." you spoke bluntly, her face falling before she noticed your grin and her eyes rolled. "hilarious." she muttered sarcastically, shoving you and smiling down at the floor as the pair of you stood side by side leant against the sink.

"has kyra been bothering you?" alessia questioned softly, and you could feel her concerned gaze pan over the side of your face but as soon as you turned to look back at her it was trained to the floor again.

"jealous?" you smiled softly, bumping your shoulder gently into hers, your fingers now brushing against hers where your hands hung side by side, pinkies slowly intertwining making butterflies flutter in your stomach.

"no!" alessia answered quickly, the two of you finally sharing a look and a grin before returning your gazes to the tiled floor as if it was the most interesting thing in the room.

"she's been trying to sell me off like a prized cow, vic too." you chuckled, the electricity bolts returning as alessia now properly took your hand in hers.

"well now i'm jealous." alessia admitted quietly though you didn't miss the way her lips curled upward. "should be, i'm worth a fair bit of money russo." you teased softly, squeezing her hand and bumping your hip into hers again.

"oh i know. who went shopping with you yesterday?" alessia challenged looking up as you scoffed. "i told you i would pay for my own stuff! but you-" you started to argue, a laugh and a pair of very familiar lips shutting you up as they pressed against yours.

"we could just tell them about us." you were again caught off guard by the words that followed, alessia's taller form caging you in against the counter you were pressed against, pulling away and speaking up.

"i thought you weren't ready yet? there's no pressure less, i know i said that stuff about kyra but-" again, cut off with pale pink lips moving against yours.

"well i've been thinking about it and we could start with just a few of our close friends, our parents have kept it hush." your girlfriend mused making you smile, her hand dropping yours as they both settled on your hips, yours winding around her neck.

"our friends mouths are much bigger than our families." you reminded with a snicker of amusement making the blonde chuckle. "well we have to start somewhere, and i think i'm ready. if you are!" alessia clarified quickly, worry flickering momentarily through her eyes as you nodded.

"i am. this is still...new, but i like it." you assured with a nod, pecking her lips twice and enjoying the way the tips of her ears reddened.

"new? babe its been two months!" alessia laughed as you rolled your eyes which flickered to the door as you thought you heard it open but it stayed closed.

"maybe, but its your first time dating a girl!" you reminded poking her nose as she rolled her eyes but nodded, unable to argue the fact that all of this had indeed been something new for the pair of you.

"well i am ready, at least for a few of the girls to know. i want you, nobody else." alessia assured as you blushed and she beamed, kissing your flushed cheeks.

"and then maybe they'll stop trying to sell you off like a prized cow." your girlfriend teased as you gasped, opening your mouth to tell her off but once more your words were swallowed by her lips locking with yours.

"you can't just kiss me to shut me up whenever you want you know?" "oh no? watch me."

twins?! pt2

a.russo

once alessia’s family had left, the doctors came in to check on you and the babies, they suggested you stay a few days in the hospital for observation, just to be safe. alessia quickly agreed with their words, considering your last visit at the hospital.

once they had left it was nearing dinner time, and you hadn’t eaten all that much since the surgery and you were absolutely starving.

“lessi? would you mind ordering me some mcdonald’s for dinner please?” you smiled at her.

“of course I can baby” she kissed your cheek and quickly grabbed her phone and opened the delivery app.

she handed you the phone and you put in your order. now, as you were so hungry and you hadn’t eaten in over twenty four hours, your meal probably could have covered you AND alessia, but if she held any judgement she certainly didn’t show it.

she quietly took the phone back and placed an order for herself “it’ll be here in 15 minutes lovie” she gently re-took her spot on your hospital bed and slung her arm over your shoulder.

“thank you lessi” you mumbled tiredly. the twins were asleep in their cots and had been for about an hour, so you and alessia had a few moments to yourself. that didn’t last long though as oliver woke up and started crying, which in turn caused finn to wake up and start crying as well.

you sighed and reached over to get your special feeding pillow that can hold both of the boys while they were feeding. alessia brought them over one at a time, she got oliver first and gently positioned him on your right boob, almost immediately he stopped crying and started feeding.

she kissed your cheek and quickly went to get finn and she positioned him to your left boob and he immediately latched as well.

“are you okay? you’re not too uncomfortable?” alessia was honestly the best partner in the world. she was always checking in on you, getting anything you asked for and being the sweetest mother to the twins already.

“I’m alright less, thank you” it was a weird feeling, the suckling, and it was going to take some getting used to.

“alright, good. will you be okay if I quickly go and grab our dinner? the app says it’s three minutes away.”

“yeah of course, we’re all good here” you smiled at her, then you looked down at your babies to see both of them with their eyes closed and almost asleep.

“perfect, I’ll only be a few minutes” she smiled and came over to give you a quick kiss and went to meet the delivery person.

—————————————————————

you were now allowed to go home, much to your delight. both you and alessia were taking advantage of the twins being asleep and packed your bags.

well, actually, alessia was packing. you were trying to help but you were in quite a bit of pain from your c-section, and she insisted on doing it on her own.

once she had packed everything up, she grabbed the car seats and gently got finn and placed him in his, whilst you got oliver and did the same.

“I’ll be right back lovie, just going to put the bags in the car” she gently took hold of your waist and kissed you. as you pulled away she chased your lips for a few more sweet kisses.

you giggled quietly, so you didn’t wake the boys and playfully pushed her away. she picked up the bags and took them out to the car.

whilst she was gone you took a seat on the big arm chair that was in the room and closed your eyes, just taking a moment to let your new life sink in.

once alessia had returned, she approached the door quietly and as she opened it, her eyes softened. she looked at your peacefully sleeping babies, then over to you.

she tiptoed over to the arm chair you were seated in and squatted down to your level. she gently rubbed her hands over your thighs and rested her chin on your knee to look up at you.

you opened your eyes at the feeling, and you saw her face which had a soft, loving smile on it.

“you ready to go home baby?” she murmured, placing a kiss to your knee.

you nodded your head and she rose to her full height. she took your hands in hers and gently pulled you up.

she kept hold of your hands and leaned forward to place a long kiss to your forehead.

“I love you so much, I’m so proud of you” she murmured softly into your skin.

you smiled softly and repeated those same words to her.

she smiled and pulled away to walk over to your babies, who were settled in their car seats on top of the bed.

“I love you both so much already, let’s get you both home” she cooed softly. you came up next to her and ran your hand over her back.

“let’s go my loves” you carefully lifted oliver’s car seat while alessia took finn’s.

as soon as you exited the room, alessia held her hand open and gestured to oliver’s car seat.

“less it’s alright, you don’t need to take both of them” you placed your own hand in hers and she shook her head.

“i know you wanted to get a picture, let me take him and I’ll give him right back” she smiled and you could have melted into a puddle right then and there at her remembering your conversation during the early days in your pregnancy.

“ok fine, but I’m taking him back” you handed the seat over to her and as soon as she had a grip she was picking up her pace to be in front of you.

you snapped a picture and got a short video. “less i got it, slow down so i can take him back.” she turned her head around and gave you a cheeky grin and a wink.

“alessia mia teresa russo, you slow down right now” you hissed.

alessia cringed at the use of her full name, she sighed and slowed her pace to walk in line with you.

“I just don’t want you to push yourself too hard after the surgery” she said softly and adjusted her grip on the car seats.

you smiled gently at her thoughtfulness, it never failed to make you feel any less giddy inside, and honestly, it makes you fall in love with her even more every day.

“alright, you win this time” you sighed playfully and she giggled, knowing you were secretly happy and thankful for her help.

alessia had spent probably over two hours practicing getting these car seats into the car, and now, as she’s been saying, she’s a pro.

she did eventually had you oliver’s car seat, only for a few minutes though, as it only took her that long to get finn situated into the car.

“you want to sit in the back with them lovie?” she was stood in front of you now, gently taking oliver back and placing a kiss to your cheek as she did so.

“yeah, i think that would be a good idea. thank you lessi” you smiled and basically waddled around alessia’s mercedes. she was patient as you took your time getting into the car.

“all set?” she lowered her head down to look at you.

“yeah, I’m all good” you smiled at her. she grinned back and started working on getting oliver settled into the car, asking you to hold certain parts a few times.

“alright, we’re all good. are you sure you’re comfortable sitting here?” she asked again, just double checking.

“yeah don’t worry less, just focus on getting us home” you smiled and reached your hand over oliver to interlock both of your fingers.

“alright lovie, just let me know if you’d prefer to come up front” she said into your hand as she leaned in to kiss it.

—————————————————————

it was now the start of the second week with your boys home. everything had been going really well, alessia had been changing almost every diaper, at her insistence and organising your frozen milk supply, while you were breast feeding.

you were woken up again to the sound of both of your babies crying, you sighed and gently got out of bed.

as you were walking over to the boys’ cots, alessia got out of bed and joined you in trying to soothe the twins. she gently took oliver into her hold and started walking around and gently patting his back while whispering and humming to him.

you took finn over to the bed and tried to see if he was hungry by trying to get him to latch to your boob.

breast feeding was a lot tougher than you thought it would be. your boobs were always sore and tender. you felt like you always had a pump or a baby (or two) latched to them.

it had been challenging trying to juggle everything, but you and alessia have had multiple talks and agreed on who would be taking care of what.

finn didn’t seem to want to latch or that he was hungry, so you pulled your shirt down and carefully stood up with him still in your arms. you were rubbing his back while his piercing screams filled the once quiet room.

alessia was placing oliver back in his cot as she had managed to soothe him and he had stopped crying.

you had both figured out in the first few of days that finn especially liked it when he was touching the both of you, so alessia came and stood in front of you and wrapped both you and finn in a firm hug.

it was a bit challenging the first few times as you were trying to figure out what soothed each of them, but he seemed to like it better when he was just sandwiched in between you both.

you stopped bouncing him and just held him while rubbing his back as alessia was stood pressing lightly into the side of his back with her head on top of yours.

you were humming a lullaby softly into his ear and it seemed to be working, as his cries started dying down and he snuggled into you a bit more.

once you knew that he was sleeping, alessia stepped back to let you put him back in his cot.

once you turned around you found her with a soft smile on her face and her left arm extended for you to take.

you gently intertwined your fingers and you let her guide you back to bed.

you both laid on your backs with your head on her shoulder and her right arm wrapped around you.

she was lightly scratching up and down your exposed arm and pressing feather light kisses to your temple.

“I love you” she sighed out, rolling on her side to face you.

you turned your head to look at her and smiled.

“I love you, thank you for doing so much” you said truthfully.

“anything for you three, you all are my world” she whispered softly, bringing her hand up to tuck a few strands of hair behind your ear.

you smiled and started to tear up, your hormones were all over the place and to hear that coming from her mouth just made you so happy.

“we should get as much sleep as we can now lovie, I bet they’ll be hungry in a few hours” she suggested quietly, moving so her head was now on your shoulder.

“goodnight less, love you” you murmured into her hair.

she responded by kissing your neck a few times, then repeating those same words.
