I gave a helpless, amused smile and suggested ordering delivery, reaching for my phone to place the order right away.
My wife stopped me instantly.
Her movement was so sudden and forceful that it nearly knocked my phone off the bed.
The room went dead silent for a moment.
She froze when she realized how over-the-top her reaction had been, then rushed to explain. "I just... I want to go outside for some fresh air, clear my head a little," she said.
She leaned in close, her voice soft and sweet, and pressed another light kiss to my cheek.
Her warm breath brushed the shell of my ear, and her fingertips tickled as she tilted my chin up gently.
"Wait for me to get home, and I will treat you real good," she whispered.
About half an hour later, she walked back in.
The second she pushed the door open, I shot to my feet, pulled her straight into my arms, and tugged her toward the bed.
"What took you so long?" I asked.
I pressed her down onto the sheets, and she just smiled up at me, soft and warm, saying nothing.
"Where is the stuff?" I demanded, my hand diving straight into the pocket of her coat as my voice thickened with obvious urgency.
"I... I could not get any," she said.
She stopped my searching hand, her gaze drifting away, unable to meet mine.
I did not get it. This was the kind of thing they sold at the convenience store right downstairs. How could she not get any?
I was still puzzling over it when she suddenly leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to my earlobe, her voice like melted honey.
"What if... we do not use it tonight, okay?" she breathed.
I froze, and surprise burst bright in my eyes. "What do you mean?" I asked.
"Let us have a baby," she replied.
When the words left her mouth, my brain went completely blank.
I had never expected her to say this. We had made a deal. We agreed we would wait two years after we got married to even think about kids.
Why the sudden change of heart?
"I just love you so, so much," she murmured. "I want to have our little baby sooner rather than later."
She murmured the words soft and sweet, looping her arms tight around my neck, her eyes shining bright with love.
How could I say no to that? Maybe having a kid a little earlier was not such a bad thing after all.
Once we got started that night, all my attention was fixed on that one part of her body.
Maybe it was because I had just found out her secret earlier that day, but I could not help myself. I kept trying to feel for any difference, any tell that would give it away.
After all, there had to be at least a little gap between a surgically altered one and the real thing, right?
But weirdly enough, I could not feel a single thing out of the ordinary.
"How is this so real?" I blurted out.
I froze mid-movement, the question slipping out before I could stop it.
"W... what?" she panted, her face flushed deep pink and her eyes hazy with lust as she stared back at me.
