"Ruby."
Christina waited for acknowledgment before calling out again.
"Ruby!"
Ughhh. Ever since Ruby had discovered, by way of her meddling sister, AO3 and Abbott Elementary fan fiction, she'd been obsessed. Reading every story tagged with Barbara Howard and Melissa Schemmenti. Mel and Barb or Barb and Mel. She would curl up with the baby and read. Christina would hear her laughing, sighing and sometimes cursing at the tablet.
Who was she to complain? Her love was happy and content. She could always tell when Ruby had read a particularly steamy story because Ruby would be wet, ready and waiting for her to enter their bedroom. Sometimes they did not make it up the stairs. No, she could hardly complain.
Christina found herself walking up the stairs to find her gorgeously breathtaking wife. “Darling did you need anything?”
Christina was shocked to see Ruby crying. She hurried to console her. “What is it my love?”
She loved over the baby, asleep and nestled against Ruby’s side. She stroked Ruby’s back.
“Ruby?”
“Shhh, I’m reading.”
Christina just shook her head, climbed behind Ruby, laid her arm across Ruby’s waist as her fingers caressed the baby’s arm and whispered, “So it seems.”
