"Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing." -Anais Nin



"Morning" Melo laid his head on my stomach and smiled at me

"Huh?"

"Ma, you can't tell me you wasn't a lil bit excited when the doctor so much as mentioned pregnancy" Melo kissed up by body and sucked on my neck

"Bruh, chill out" I pushed at his neck to back him up off me
