Chapter fifty eight: Nearly complete

Evan POV

"Wow, you've done incredible" I complimented as I looked around the nursery we had made in one of the spare rooms. I had painted the walls a pale yellow whilst Maeve had chosen some Disney prints to put up on the walls.

Maeve had just finished with putting away the baby clothes in designated ages, we had already purchased up to 6 month old clothing and I scolded her for her undying obsession with purchasing baby clothes but this didn't sway Maeve in the slightest.

"It sure is incredible and that's because we work together well" she replied back with a toothy grin. I kissed Maeve's shoulder and sighed "it's not long now. Only a few weeks left" I stated in 'awe'

After the realisation Emma was back in town we hadn't heard anything from her. The police told us to keep an eye out as she would be breaking her restraining order; and if anything in the slightest happened to call them. But Emma seemed to have disappeared off the face of the world; nobody knew about her anymore so we continued living our life to the fullest.

"Here, I chose this" Ember gestured to one of her cuddly toys in her arms. "The babies can share it, it's one of my favourites" Ember passed the fluffy bear towards me where I smiled appreciatively at her.

"They will absolutely love it. Did you want to choose where to put it in their room?" I asked tenderly in which she pointed towards one of the floating shelves that was in the centre of the room and full of framed scan photos. "Right next to the picture"

"That's a great place" I said pleasingly, my hands placing the cuddly bear on to it. Ember was becoming very different now she knew she would be a big sister, she would remind Maeve to take her vitamins and to drink lots of water. She actually became more of a nag than me.

"When are they going to be here. It's taking forever" Ember grumbled as she picked at her lips. Maeve chuckled and rolled her eyes as she tended to do towards our sassy daughter "they are still cooking. Only five weeks left"

"Ah well tell them too cook faster" she deadpanned with lack of amusement withering in her eyes.

Maeve and I had decided on the names but I was still apprehensive about one of those so we decided to wait and see what they suited when born.

"Are you going to be the best grown up girl tonight?" I asked Ember which earned me a frown. "I've told you. Juliette doesn't need to look after me, I can look after myself"

Maeve tilted her chin "then who will protect you from the spooky monsters in your closest?"

Ember swatted her arm "mommy I told you already, I was joking. I don't think that at all.."

I hummed in response "sure, you totally weren't crying because of it either"

Ember screwed up her face "whatever I'm going to my room" she strolled off in a puff leaving me and Maeve giggling amongst each other.

"So where are we off to Mr Peters" Maeve asked me with a raised brow "what's the dress code. Are we going fancy or casual" she continued with bemusement.

"We are going to one of the best restaurants in town so it's entirely your choice what you would like to wear, just make sure you're comfortable" I stated whilst kissing her hands.

Maeve grinned "fancy it is. I want to dress up one last time before wearing sweatpants and vomit covered t shirts once the babies are born"

I pushed a strand of her dark hair behind her ear "and I'll still call you beautiful with vomit down your t shirt"

I planted a soft kiss to her lips which Maeve smiled into, her mouth feeling like butter as we deepened the kiss. "You're too good for me"

Maeve shook her head "it's the other way round-

I cupped her face and caressed it "you're carrying our babies. You've carried our big baby. You're too good for me because you're superwoman in my eyes"

Maeve pouted her lips "you're adorable Evan. All of this has made you so soppy. I sometimes miss the way you would be less... sweet"

Rolling my brown eyes I placed a hand on my hip, with women it was constantly a losing battle. It's not good if you're too loving and not good if you have too much bad boy vibes. I scoffed and turned my head "what does that mean?"

She traced her hands down to my hips making my breath get caught in my throat "it means I miss you pushing me against walls and screaming profanity whilst your hand is around my throat"

Blushing at her statement I grabbed my jeans to readjust myself "you're heavily pregnant. There won't be throat grabbing and wall shoving until those babies are born I'm afraid"

Maeve pouted "fine. You're right but as soon as I've passed my checks when having the babies you're gonna want to run" she joked with a thick layer of amusement

Maeve's sex drive was unfathomable and sometimes I felt I couldn't keep up. I'll admit I had become vanilla the last few weeks as the babies grew but I couldn't exactly be rough with her at the moment. Though they do say when you're pregnant all you can think about is sex and that was something we definitely didn't lack.

Maeve POV

My dress was emerald and hugged my body like all the dresses I owned especially since gaining twenty pounds and carrying around two babies. My bump was enhanced by the material and I was gobsmacked at how big I was looking now, two babies definitely insured a massive belly.

My hair was straightened with my midsection pulled into a small ponytail; mascara and eyeliner lightly covered my eyes and black small heels complimented my dress well. I hoped that Evan would be less soft with me tonight because I was desperate for him, I had never felt so sexually driven before that it would make even my cheeks blush profusely.

"Bye Ember. Be good" we told the sassy child sitting with her feet propped up on the coffee table to my dismay.

"Blah blah. See you. Me and Juliette will play barbies" she shrugged lazily which made me chuckle "I'm glad. Have fun baby"

Evan took my arm and guided me out the house and into the jeep, his smile never leaving me as we drove towards the restaurant. God I loved this man with all my heart.

And I prayed with all my might that nothing would ever come between us again.

{A/N lazy, filler kind of chapter I know. I just wanted to update once more before going to sleep. Love you all 😄}
