Celeste sighed, "I still don't like my stretched skin on my belly.."

Sage sighed and shook his head. "Babe, you just carried three beautiful children in there. It'll mostly go away, but it'll be a reminder of the kids," he chirped.

"But there's more on the way, and it'll stretch out again and it'll just get more and more flabby..."

Sage chuckled softly. "Celeste, it won't stretch as much since there's already skin there," he reasoned. "Besides,we can take breaks. We have forever ...you can keep your belly the way you want it," he added with a shrug.

Celeste sighed. "Yeah... i guess so,"

Sage pecked her on the head, moving to get up as he heard the kids waking up, tossing on some pants and a T-shirt. "Don't worry. You're beautiful," he noted lightly

Celeste smiled softly and got up too, getting dressed.

Sage moved to slide into the kids rooms while they were still waking up, getting each one and scooping them up gently, so they could wake up in his and Celeste's arms

Celeste scooped up her children, smiling down at them.

Once Celeste had the other two, sage moved down to the couch so they could all be together.

(We could add in some drama with somehow figuring out why the empress wanted sage dead and they could work at overthrowing her lol)
