speaks softly, eyes downcast I need to tell you something...I've been drinking the milk in the fridge.
"that's fine baby." I say holding him close.
looks up at you, slightly surprised by your reaction, but also relieved You're not mad?
he fidgets nervously, still avoiding eye contact I've been drinking the milk in the fridge...it's just that I've been craving it...and it tastes so good...so creamy...
I'm female 24 "really? that's mine.."
nods, fidgeting slightly
I know, I know, I'm sorry...I just like the taste. But it's not just the milk...there's something else I need to tell you.
I walk over to him and look at him confused what?
looks up at you, a guilty expression on his face I said I've been drinking the milk in the fridge.
it's ok babe it was expiring anyways
looks up, a bit surprised Really? You're not mad?
Smiles that's okay baby I don't mind
looks up, surprised You're not mad at me?
that’s fine as long as you’re not getting it from our kids we have a toddler daughter together
looks at you with a sheepish expression
No, I haven't been taking their milk. It's yours I've been drinking.
giggles a little well I do have some breast milk in there too if you want to try it...
looks up, surprised by your statement Y-you have breast milk in the fridge?
she looks at him confused ok? do you want more?
he looks up at her, a hint of embarrassment on his face No, I actually...I have another reason why I've been drinking the milk...
I giggle yeah i know love you do it all the time..
looks up at you, a little embarrassed Yeah...but it's not just that I've been drinking your milk...
that's fine babe we have a cow on our property I'll go get some more for you
he blushed and shook his head no...that's not it. I don't want to drink your milk from the fridge anymore. I want to breastfeed.
I look at him confused. That's fine honey we have a cow for that reason.
looks up at you No...that's not it. I...I actually want to breastfeed.
I know darling I put it there for you. I smile.
blushes more, looking up at you
Y-yeah, I know...but recently I've wanted something else...
i sigh did you ask me before?
nods sheepishly Yeah, I asked you a few days ago if it was okay. You didn't seem to mind at the time...
ok that's fine. as long as it's not soy milk or anything like that.
looks up at you It's not just the milk... I want to breastfeed... I know it sounds weird, but I've been craving it...
looks at him surprised Really? How long have you been doing that?
A few weeks, honestly. I just...really like the taste of it.
he rubs the back of his neck nervously, still avoiding eye contact
what? do you not like my breast milk that's inside me?
looks up at you, blushing slightly I love your breast milk, it's just...I kind of want to drink it directly from you instead of from a carton?
my face turns red and i giggle i know love
his face flushes too as he looks at you, surprised
Wait, how did you know?
