---- next morning.
Bastille woke up many times in the night, feeling feverish and hazy from the entire experience. She remembered the pain at times, and memories seemed to flow like dreams- recent and old. The doctor came in twice to check on her, once quickly leaving to fetch water and force it down Bastilles throat- Bastille not feeling very happy with her either. But the sun rose and Bastille was feeling less -....hazy. Instead she just felt tired and achey- like waking up from having the flu all night, cept a bit more sore where her stomach was concerned. Dr. Tessa had taken a two hour nap, then had promptly returned to barking at the assigned nurses. She'd take a thorough nights sleep when Bastille was walking again. On that note, she'd come early in the morning to check on Bastille for a third time- finding her awake and sitting up.
"How are you feeling ms. mom" Tessa teased.
"Like I got blown up again- " She said tiredly. " I cant sleep....I want to, but I cant."
Bastille said it like a bored statement, as if it didnt matter. Tessa sighed and checked her temperature.
"You have a slight fever, but... thats normal. We'll need to clean your wounds again to make sure it doesn't get any higher and keep you in bed. I'll bring you a spot of breakfast- nothing too much, but you should eat it."
"Right, right..." Bastille nodded weakly and rolled her eyes. She rested her head back against the pillow and strained to remember the night before. It all seemed like a stressful blur.

Mathew yawned from the chair across the room. Trying hard not to nod off. Both of the girls sleeping soundly in their little cribs. Taken to the nursery area. He had watched them until the nurses insisted on taking them away.
"Morning sweety."
He managed to yawn out from half closed eyes.

"Morning" She grunted.

He yawned loudly.
"Sleep... well...?"

"No." She said groaning. "Feel like my loins are torn into a million pieces and each one of them is on fire with a different acid. You try sleeping through that." Whining, always whining.

"Sounds..." He yawned again, "rough..."

Bastille peered at him tiredly and patted the bed next to her, beckoning him to come closer- ....because her heat source was WAY too far away. Plus it was hard work trying to talk louder than needed.

With a small groan of effort he lifted himself from his seat and made his way next to Bastille on her bed. Being careful to not crowd her as he settled in facing her. A small tired smile on his lips.
"Both our girls are healthy."

Bastille ignored his attempt not to crowd and pulled herself right in, grunting when the way she turned didnt agree with her stitches. She was trying to curl up, but it turned out more like him resting on her rather than the other way around. But hey, heat was heat. " I cant believe I have kids right now...are they sleeping?" Beat. "Did you sleep at all ...for however long that was...what day is it even?......" Another beat. "Im a mom?"

He shifted a bit more so to much weight wasn't on her.
"They are sleeping, and I got a small nap in, not much."
A small smirk played across his features as he leaned in to plant a small kiss on her forehead.
"I feel bad for the world that will have to deal with our spawn."

Bastille chuckled darkly. "I'm starting to think this nuclear war might have just been the beginning" She mused back.

"It certainly can't be worse than whatever our two girls will get up to."
If they turned out to be anything like their parents at least.

Bastille was quiet for a moment, a smirk on her face. And then, quietly she leaned over and kissed his forehead right back before sighing and laying back against the pillows.

"You're adorable when you are exhausted."
He commented.

"I wouldn't know, I've never been this exhausted....." She was just hoping she did alright, that they really were okay. She knew she trusted Mathew but...that odd anxious feeling. She hated it and it was obvious.
