August had finished cleaning the house after a rather excruciatingly long day. He'd made his way around starting with the master bedroom and then the girl's bedroom, had moved to the bathrooms next, and ended with the kitchen and living room nearing the early evening. It still gave him enough time to relax a bit before Xander got home which he was eternally grateful for because he was pretty sure that his significant other would likely be in a bad mood when he arrived home. Their two daughters were upstairs sleeping - or so he thought they were, they could be up and quietly playing around for all he knew - and August took some much needed time sitting on one of the couches in the main room, easing back somewhat comfortably as the pressure from his feet and legs and back was relieved somewhat. He swore he was never doing this again, never having totally unprotected sex with Xander. Despite their less than perfect relationship, August did love him, but he knew he was a pushover. He knew that he could tell himself things and then be tossed aside like nothing the moment Xander walked in the door. Maybe he would look into birth control after these buggers were born because he really didn't want to go through another pregnancy, not again.

He'd had his two daughters separately but now he'd gotten the pleasure of conceiving twins. It worried him a lot, but he knew they'd be able to get through it. They always did. August was having doubts about getting through the rest of this pregnancy though. He was seven months along, give or take, but he was already huge. Even the maternity clothes he had on now didn't fit snugly. He just had to keep reminding himself that there was only two more months of this and he'd be done and immediately he'd look into birth control. He might have to take it in secret but it was better than risking another kid or two. Closing his eyes and resting his head on the armrest of the couch, August sighed exhausted. He'd cook something soon but for now he was enjoying the peace and quiet.

The quaint, silent atmosphere would soon be cut short, as the sound of keys fumbling, struggling to unlock the door emerged. Making an unpleasant entrance, Xander swung the door open and slammed it closed. He sighed heavily, it was obvious he endured another long day at his job. He only went into business management because it had been promised it was a secure field. So far, he regretted his decision, and every day he was miserable. But he always knew exactly how to release those frustrations. Plopping his bags down, he walked over to his mate that seemed just as worn out as he. "I see you had the place spit and span." he commented. "Looks nice..Could be better though." he added as he leaned in closely, planting a kiss on his partner's lips rather forcefully.

[Marley]

August had to stifle back the urge to groan when he heard the door being unlocked and Xander walking in. Sometimes their nights went alright, but they usually didn't and he was always wary of the other man. He had to be. August worried that one night things would go too far and something would happen to him or his daughters, so August tried to appease Xander in any way that he could. August was about to comment on what Xander had said before he was kissed roughly. He only pulled away when Xander finished, and he tried for a small smile as he finally spoke. "It's all cleaned, unless the girls dirtied their room again." August shifted forward on the couch, one hand supporting the weight of his heavily swollen belly as he moved to stand. "You're just in time. I was about to cook. Feeling hungry for anything in particular..?"

[Alchemyst]

"As a matter of fact..Yes." He turned his head, his hazel eyes piercing into his as he unzipped his jacket as it seemed he was stripping down from his work attire to relax. But that wasn't the case. Pushing his partner back down, he hovered over him possessively. "However, I'm craving something else...And I've been hungry for it for quite sometime now.." he grinned deviously. It was the kind of grin that would send chills down Augusts spine.

[Marley]

August was a bit startled when he was pushed back onto the couch, and he had to quickly readjust the way he sat so the twins he was carrying weren't shoved painfully against his pelvis. He had to be a lot more careful with that lately. "Oh?" August hummed softly; he knew what was to come and he wasn't really looking forward to it, but he wouldn't refuse Xander of what he wanted - it meant worse left him in the long run. He swallowed thickly, trying to ebb off his nervousness as he offered a subtle smile to Xander.

[Alchemyst]

Xander usually didn't have regard for his partner's feelings. Considering whatever he wanted, was granted either way. His hardened groin rubbed between his soft thighs, his pelvis area rubbing against his swollen tummy; Half of his body weight was leaning against him as he pulled August into another forced kiss. "Yeah, and I do hope you didn't have anything else planned either..." he added, slowly stripping his clothes for him, he gazed down at his body, pausing, he placed his hand over his belly. His expression softened. Looking closely, it seemed as if Xander was smiling. "God, you have no idea how beautiful you are when pregnant..Should get you knocked up more often." he chuckled as he leaned in to kiss his neck.

[Marley]

August saw the kiss coming, and when their lips were crushed not so gently together, August could feel his body tense. "Never," he added softly, because he didn't have anything to do after this, and even if he had he wouldn't tell Xander about it. August wasn't normally a blusher but stripped of his clothes he found his cheeks heating up, his face painted in a light red hue. He'd never been confident in his appearance while pregnant and the lack of clothes made him more self-aware. His abdomen was a darker red color from the pressure of the weight he was carrying, and subtle lines of stretch marks ran from the underside of his belly up to his popped belly button like vines. He forced a smile at Xander's words. How ironic, because he never wanted to get knocked up again. August tipped his head slightly and his lips parted in a quiet moan, his hips bucking once to meet Xander's.

[Alchemyst]

Though his tone frame was visible through his clothing, Xander decided to undress only the top part, revealing that familiar body that could seduce anyone. He undid his fly, and picked up his partner, placing August on Xander's lap; rubbing his hips up and down with a remaining smirk. His hardened groin continued to grind against his, until it slid into his tight opening, letting out a soft groan.

[Marley]

It wasn't that August didn't like to be intimate with his partner. Back when they'd first met it really had been nice and tender and loving. He didn't necessarily get off to their love so much anymore as it was the feeling of sex and it kind of sucked, because August wanted to feel that again but he was always so focused on making Xander happy and being in fear of the consequences of doing something. August moaned a little when he felt Xander's length penetrate him, and even though he couldn't see it under his heavy belly in front of him he could feel himself getting hard. August moved slightly atop Xander, yearning for some kind of friction.

[Alchemyst]

"N-ngh..When was the last time we actually made love, huh?" he managed to speak, as his hips bucked upward while his partner grind against him. His warm breath tickling against his neck, he soothingly licked it and kissed it. It felt lovingly but it was just lustfully. He moaned alongside him and held him close. He only enjoyed this pleasure so much because he was benefiting something out of it. However, he wasn't sure the same could be said for August.

[Marley]

August didn't have to worry so much now about sex. Sometimes Xander caught him off guard and he wasn't really in the mood to have sex but he did it anyways if only to avoid his lover's wrath. He couldn't get anymore pregnant so that was one less thing to worry about; when he hadn't been pregnant, August was always scared it would take and he would get pregnant, and that anxiety often made the intimacy between them less enjoyable. "D-dunno," he said breathily, tipping his head at the kisses and grunting as Xander thrusted into him. Just from the movement of their bodies alone, August was already worked up, and a small bead of sweat rolled down either heaving side of his belly as he held his gravid pregnancy to keep somewhat steady.

[Alchemyst]

Xander was so preoccupied in making sure he reminded August whom was in charge as he continued to thrust as fast as his body allowed him, little did he know their eldest daughter was there, peeping on their current activity. Confused as of what they were doing however, she still stuck around regardless even if it did frightened her a bit. The both of them were panting and drenched in perspiration, one of them were bound to reach their climax.

[Marley]

If August had been able to see their daughter he would have shooed her away. Sex or not, he didn't like it when their daughters saw too much of him and Xander together. He didn't want them to grow up thinking the abusiveness was okay. August was the first to spill over the edge, a short groan passing over his lips as he came, the sticky remnants spurting against the underside of his swollen belly. He still moved lazily with Xander's thrusting rhythm though, catching his breath as he waited for his partner to finish too.

[Alchemyst]

Xander was quick to reach culmination right after him. Slouching back satisfied, he let out an extending soft sigh. Giving his "lover" one last kiss, he laid back. "Think you can whip me up something? That little exercise has me tuckered out and hungry." He commented. However, little footsteps could be heard, retreating back to her room, Katheryn slithered back up into bed. Thinking maybe her parents were having their "typical argument". It happened so often she deemed it as normal after all. But even then, it never sat well with her.

[Marley]

"Yeah... Yeah." He nodded stiffly and moved off top of Xander, struggling to pull his pants back on for a moment before he waddled achingly into the kitchen. If there was any way he could feel even more gross and full, Xander had fulfilled that. He took a napkin and haphazardly wiped off his orgasm from his belly, eventually tossing it into the trash and pulling on his shirt that barely fit anymore. A sliver of skin was revealed under the right material. August couldn't have been sure when he thought he'd heard footsteps, but he made sure to put something on the stove top first until he made his way upstairs, completely out of breath at the top. He gathered himself slowly and peeked into the girls' room, frowning as he didn't notice anything too out of place. He sighed. He was in no mood to lecture whichever one had likely wandered downstairs and witnessed what had happened.

[Alchemyst]

Katheryn hid under her sheets, hoping he would leave the room. She was too scared, let alone tired to ask questions. Trying to go back to sleep she sighed deeply, hoping that the image she unfortunately stumbled upon would leave her thoughts.
It didn't.
The next morning it was all she could think about.
Greeting her father, Xander planted a kiss on her forehead, sitting beside him by the table, she twiddled with the utensils. "Sleep well, princess?" he ruffled her hair, as she leaned back in her chair. "Y-Yeah.." she said quietly, as her younger sister Kayla came downstairs and joined them. "You're not mad at mommy for anything, are you?"
Xander cocked a brow but then laughed "Pf. No. Unless I have a reason to be." he snickered, however, she wasn't laughing. She just cringe but tried to shrug it off

[Marley]

The next morning, August woke up early to cook breakfast. It wasn't something he did too often but it was becoming more and more routine as he found the activity of the twins had begun to peak, and the only way he could get his mind off the incessant kicking from inside of him at God knows what hours in the morning was to do something productive. He'd prepped simple eggs and bacon, nothing too special, but he still thought it was nicer than cereal. August brought each filled plate around to his family, kissing both of his daughters on their cheeks when he moved by. "We're both fine, honey," August reassured Katheryn, brushing her hair back with one hand and offering a smile. "Nothing's wrong, I promise." He took a seat next to Kayla, one hand ghosting to his stomach in a vain attempt to get the flipping motions he was feeling to stop. "Did you two sleep okay?" he asked, trying for some casual conversation. He'd have to talk to Katheryn afterwards.

[Alchemyst]

Kayla was quick to respond cheerfully as usual. Blissfully unaware of the tribulations that would usually go around here. Being the youngest, she did have to be protected from it, and keep an innocent mindset. "I slept good like always! except Katheryn. She was tossing and turning. She probably havin' a bad dream or something." she commented, biting into her egg, Katheryn glared at her younger sister. Why did she have to be cursed with a sister that had such a big mouth? she thought. She saw Xander give that look. That suspicious look. To diffuse any suspicions and conclusions, she said, "Must be school or something..Maybe something I watched the other day maybe.." she fibbed, not making eye contact as she circled her food with her fork.

[Marley]

"Oh, maybe." August ate his food slowly. Even though he was supposed to be getting a lot of calories and whatnot, it was hard to eat too much since he already felt full most of the time. There wasn't that much room in his stomach from the babies pushing up into just about everything. His stomach, his ribs, his lungs - it all hurt. "If you watch those scary shows and stuff they're bound to give you bad dreams." He raised a brow at Katheryn. "I can't watch them before I go to bed or else I'll be up all night."

[Alchemyst]

"Yeah..." she said, drifting off into thought. Her body shifted in startle as her father rose up from his seat. "Well whenever you're watching these movies, it better not be on a school night. You know the rules." "I know.." she said weakly, as he ruffled her hair, along with Kayla's. With a smile, he prepped himself up to go out. "Good, I'm going to hang out with the boys for a bit." he plant a kiss on his lover, leaning in whispering about having the place cleaned by the time he came back in a not so chirpy fashion. With that, he took his leave.
