Couples who have had a cesarean should wait at least two months before having sexual intercourse.
It was Ruby Gregory's birthday, and they were two days shy of the two-month mark.
Though Steve Burton was feeling pent up, he ultimately couldn't bear to cross the line; he just kissed Ruby's lips and held her hand, letting her help him find release.
Such lovemaking, though not utterly satisfying, was enough to relieve Steve's discomfort. At the end, he held Ruby and kissed her repeatedly, filling the room with his scent.
Steve went to the bathroom to take a shower, then tiptoed out with a damp towel to wipe Ruby's hands, only to find her sleeping soundly, wrapped in the blanket.
He carefully picked up her hand and wiped it clean, then leaned down to kiss her forehead.
