You didn’t think your joke would make him react like that.

Him and Natalia were married. You, were their third. And you have been, for about 7 years.

With James, you have two beautiful 5 year old twins, your children. You’re mama, he’s papa, Nat’s mommy.

You and him agreed on two. You had always wanted a big family, he knew that, but you settled. Not wanting to risk losing them.

You and Natalia were in bed, teasing James about how handsome he looked in his politician suit.

The joke was silly. “Kinda makes me want a third.”

He didn’t take it as a joke.

You could read his face like a book. You knew James like the back of your hand.

He wasn’t angry or upset with you, but he definitely was not pleased.

His brows furrowed, his lips thinned, his eyes darkened with an emotion you couldn’t quite place.

It… kinda scared you.

“You what.”
