Celeste clung onto him, breathing heavily after they'd finished up. She smiled. "I love you..." she breathed.

Sage had gone limp next to her, arms wrapped loosely around her. He smiled softly and pecked her head lightly at her comment. "I love you too," he humemd softly.

Celeste just laid there for a bit, regaining her strength before getting up and cleaning herself up. Her chest began leaking a little so she attached the pumps to herself before crawling up in bed. "The babies will appreciate this," she giggled.

Sage lay around until Celeste started cleaning herself up, and he figured he'd better do the same. He did so lazily, flopping back on the bed to wait for her, chuckling softly when she mentioned the babies. "They'll be hungry by morning, I'm sure," he mused lightly, alibet tiredly now that it was late. Er...early? He really wasn't sure.

Celeste smiled sleepily and nodded. She managed to stay awake for a little more before taking the pumps off and cuddling back up with Sage.

Sage stayed awake well enough until Celeste finished pumping, and when she moved to curl back up he just wrapped himself around her happily and passed out pretty much right away.

Celeste smiled, curling up with him and falling asleep.

Sage had just curled around her tightly, snuggling under the covers happily. He didn't wake up until later that morning, smiling when a quick twitch of his ears told him the kids were all still resting happily and neither he or Celeste needed to get up quite yet.

Celeste remained asleep.

Since Celeste was asleep sage didn't move, he just curled tighter around her and breathed her scent in happily. He really was lucky to have her.
