Our Invisible String (Complete Version)

43 (Travis Version)

"Shh, everything's okay." I murmured. "The babies are fine, and you're fine. We're all okay."

Taylor nodded, still clinging to me. After a while, she was discharged and I took her home. She was quiet, still shaken after everything that had happened. When we got home I quickly put Abby back to bed and then went to find Taylor in the bathroom, her shirt tucked up, and she was staring at her stomach.

"Hey." I said softly, moving up behind her.

"Hi." Taylor whispered as I slipped my hands around her waist and hugged her back against me.

"Princess are you okay?" I asked, and Taylor shook her head.

"No." She choked. "I almost lost everything tonight because I was stupid and didn't think. I was so stupid, and I know there's probably such a reasonable explanation for all of this and what I heard you say but I just want to cry about it for a while and I just..." Then Taylor was crying too hard to speak.

"Oh come here princess, come here, it's okay." I pulled her gently around to face me and hugged her. I knew she was upset, but I also knew that part of the reason was because of her hormones. They'd been so all over the place from the very start and I knew that made things harder from her. "You're not stupid Taylor." I murmured quietly in your ear. "All of that, I was talking about the kids on my team and not about you. I can see how you might have thought it was about you if you only heard one side of the conversation, but I swear nothing is more important to me than you are, and Abby, and our little babies." I rubbed her back gently as she cried into my shirt, obviously just needed to get it out, which I understood, but god it hurt to see her sobbing. "Nothing's going to happen unless we both agree, and there's a lot to talk about first. I have a meeting next week if you want to come, but we can talk about it in the morning when you're feeling better about this okay?"

"Okay." Taylor sniffed, and I kissed her hair.

"Do you want to go to bed?"

When Taylor nodded, I nodded too and pulled back to gently wipe the teas from her cheeks. Slowly, I helped her to change and then I got changed too, and we got into bed together. She curled up close against my side and I wrapped my arms around her, so glad that she was okay, that the babies were okay.

God, I'd barely had time to wrap my head around the fact that we weren't just having one baby. We were having two, twins. With all the chaos I'd forgotten to stop and truly think about that. In the space of what felt like a blink of an eye, I'd gone from having a crushed dream to an incredible family with my fiancé and three children. Life was insane.

"So." I murmured quietly to Taylor as I stroked her hair. "Do you want to know the gender of the babies before they're born or wait and have it as a surprise?"

"Well, actually." Taylor peeked up at me with a sly smile. "I already know."

"You what?" I blinked at her, and she giggled nervously.

"The nurse was doing my ultrasound and she asked me if I wanted to know and I just said yes, so she told me."

"Well tell me princess." I cupped her cheek with one hand. "Tell me."

"Hmm." Taylor smirked, biting her lip a playful smile. "Maybe you'll have to earn it big boy." with

"Oh really?" I murmured, and she nodded. Well, alright then, challenge accepted.

Taking Taylor by the waist, I rolled her onto her back and braced my hands by her head so that I didn't put any weight on her stomach at all. She gazed up at me, cheeks flushed with anticipation. Obviously, her emotions over what had happened tonight had passed, replaced with those raging horny hormones that had become our new normal. I was really going to miss these hormones when they went away, but I knew it would be so much better when they did because we'd have two beautiful little babies to welcome into our family.

Dipping down, I placed a long, lingering kiss against Taylor's lips, relishing the taste of her, the feel of her moving to kiss me back. Pulling away after a long moment, I started placing my lips down her jaw, her neck, and Taylor's hands slipped over my shoulders, clutching to my back. She was really sensitive in the right spots, and I'd memorized every single one of them.

"God are you trying to drive me insane?" Taylor moaned wistfully as my lips travelled along the curve of her breasts above the low cut of her top.

"Yes." I murmured, and she huffed, laughing. I loved to tease her, but I could only do it for so long since it drove me out of my mind as well. Taylor knew that, so she didn't protest much, knowing I would only continue teasing her for a minute or two.

I took my time pressing sweet kisses over Taylor's stomach, tucking her shirt up. I loved her growing bump more than anything, so damn much. It was incredible to know that the products of how much we loved each other were growing inside Taylor, that she was keeping them safe and cared for until they were ready to join our family. I wished there was some way I could let Taylor see inside my heart so that she could really know how I felt about her and our family, because it was something too incredible to even put into words.

Reminding myself that I had to 'earn' the knowledge of what gender our babies were, I hooked my fingers into the hem of Taylor's pants and gently tugged down. Taylor lifted her hips to help me take them off, and her panties soon followed. I turned my attention to where I knew she was silently begging for me, pressing my lips to her hip bone in a slow kiss, ever so slightly moving inwards one kiss at a time. Taylor panted with anticipation as I teased the possibility of giving her what she needed, but I held back, making her really want it.

Only when an impatient whine escaped Taylor's lips did I secure my hands around her ass and tug her slightly closer. The whine turned into a muffled cry as Taylor clapped a hand over her mouth, obviously trying to keep quiet for Abby's sake. I chuckled, dipping my tongue gently into her dripping cunt, finding her clit and sucking gently. Even with a hand over her mouth, Taylor wasn't quiet, and stifled moans fell from her lips, spurring me on.

"Fuck, Travis!" She whimpered, her hips bucking against my mouth as I dragged my tongue against her clit, exploring, not quite doing enough to drive her to the edge yet. I was lost in the taste of her, how she clenched around me from nothing but the feeling of my head between her thighs.

With no warning, trying to catch Taylor by surprise, I delved my tongue even deeper and slipped one hand between her legs as well. She cried out as I filled her with two fingers alongside my mouth, shaking, trying desperately to stay quiet and completely failing. I was pretty sure Abby's bedroom was far enough down the hall that she wouldn't hear anything, but we'd definitely have to work on volume, especially when she got older.

"Travis!" Taylor shrieked my name, her hands fisting into the sheets as she came all over my mouth and hand. Not even bothering to breathe, I worked her down from her orgasm, slowing a little at a time. Taylor panted, slumping back against the bed as I kissed my way up her stomach, pausing to remove her shirt and pepper kisses over her collarbones, her neck, up to her lips.

I kissed her for a short moment before I pulled back, holding myself up with one hand before taking the other and resting my fingers against her lips. Taylor flushed, opening her mouth so that I could place my fingers on her tongue, and she wrapped her lips around them, sucking gently. I watched as she sucked my fingers clean of her orgasm, eyes dark with lust as they locked on mine.

"Good enough princess?" I whispered when she was finished, and Taylor nodded eagerly. I smiled, cupping her jaw and kissing her softly.

"Two girls." She breathed against my lips. "We're having two baby girls."
