Madison's POV

It was very difficult for me to sleep. Everything was sore and hurt. My stomach hurt the most.

Colby slept fine. He woke up one time and asked me why I was up. I told him I got a water and was going to bed in a short minute.

I lied. In total, I've only slept for about an hour. It's now about 4 am and Colby rolls around and lays his head on my chest.

I gently get up and walk to the bathroom. Still in my robe from a few hours ago. I turn the light on and look through the drawers for the melatonin.

"Hey love?" I hear Colby's very deep, sleepy voice.

"Oh, i'm so sorry. I just wanted to get a vitamin." I smile at him as he approaches.

"At four in the morning?" He questions, grabbing my
hips, very gently.

"Yeah, it's an important vitamin."

"What's wrong, love? You we're awake around 2 and I didn't see the water you said you got. Are you sure you're okay?" He rubs my sides.

"My body hurts and it made me only sleep for about an hour. I woke up at around 1:45 and haven't been back to sleep. My stomach hurts, my back is aching, my head hurts, everything is sore," I lay my head on his chest. "And I know what we did causes small pains like this but it's worse this time babe."

"Here," he takes the melatonin from my hand and takes me to our bed. "Lay down and I'll go get you one of those rice heat pads from the cabinet and get some medicine for you and hopefully, you'll sleep. If you don't, we can take you to the doctor."

He kisses me forehead and walks out of our room. He's only gone for about 5 minutes before he comes back. He brings some of the ibuprofen, q glass of water, and the heating pad.

He sits next to me and lays the rice pad on my stomach where the pain was. He then hands me the medicine and the water to drink.

"Try to sleep. I'll stay up to make sure Freddie and you are okay." He lets me curl up into his side as he rubs my back.

"Thank you." I whisper.

"I'm so sorry if I was the reason your stomach hurts so bad. I'm also sorry about the soreness." He says in a light voice.

"It's okay, we enjoyed our night together." I rub his arm and reassure him that it's not his fault.

Closing my eyes, I finally get some long-needed rest.

"Madison!" Colby yells. I'm sitting in an unfamiliar house. In a grand bedroom.

I get up and follow the voice. Walking down the stairs, in the hallway, and down the hallway to the family room.

It has high ceilings and large walls. It's beautiful.

"Mommy!" A little boy yells, waddling over to hug me.

"Hello Freddie." I smile and pat the little boy's head.

Fred is about 4 here.

"Hey babe, wanna help with his breakfast while I get the twins dressed?" He asks as he stands up. Holding toddler twins.

Twins? We only have Freddie? And Freddie is still a baby?

"Sure." I walk into the huge kitchen, down the hall, holding Freddie's hand.

Freddie does to sit at the table, watching me make his toast.

"Well mommy, what's for breakfast?" He chews on his finger.
