More than you see

Hey! At least I know my little guys can swim. Any guy, whether they admit it or not, likes that knowledge. I’ve done the freaking out thing before, a couple years ago. If I didn’t want to be a dad, I wouldn’t be staying involved in Sunny’s life. I feel like I’m ready. Believe it or not, I’ve matured a lot since we first met. Don’t expect anything huge though, baby steps.

Now I wonder if I should get you a cake! Oh I do believe you, I just don’t want us to rush into anything we aren’t ready for, I mean, you might not freak out but I’m not sure I can say the same about me. I’m just avoiding the subject because I don’t know if I’ll know how to keep breathing if we continue with this talk. Who knew it? Maybe I’m the immature between the two of us.

Not all hales I think that should be stated for the fact and oh, you wouldn’t have changed your mind, please, I know how you looked at me. And if you indeed are? I must say, at least I have pretty good sperm. Look how the first baby turned out. She’s a damn looker. I’m just kidding, I think I’m actually just ready to be a family guy and settle down. And it would just be the cake topper to what I wanted to ask you anyway come Christmas, might happen a little early though if this is the case.

“I am sure I’ve never looked at you like you’re a whale so this can’t compare. Only you would be proud about knocking girls up, guys are not supposed to feel proud about that, you should be freaking out and making a huge scene and telling me how you’ve never wanted to be a dad. Do you really think you’re ready? Because I don’t want you to say it just because there’s a possibility I might be pregnant, you know? It’s not sure yet and I don’t want you to say anything you might regret.”

Yeah, I know, but hey, you were the one that wanted to date me. Remember that, you said yes, you said yes to all my little quirks and stuff too babe.

What I didn’t know was that you thought whales were sexy. That’s something new that maybe would have changed my mind back then.

I..think I can manage to love you if you wind up knocked up and looking like a whale. It’s only for 9 months anyway. Besides, you’d look pretty sexy pregnant.

Okay that’s really weird but I kinda like what you said, you have such a weird way of being a romantic guy, did you know that?

It’s a compliment babe. Okay, okay, no more baby talk and I will try to stop referring to them as such but I make no promises.

Okay, that’s good enough for me... so... will you still love me if I happen to be pregnant and end up looking like a whale?

You’re right, you’re not normal, but yeah, let’s do it - the test I mean - on Monday That way we know if a Sanders-Draven spawn is going to be brought into the world.

Is that a compliment or..? Can we not talk about this right now? And stop referring to kids as spawns?

You can’t say maybe, Faye. Have you gone and gotten tested? Or should we go out and get some of those over the counter pee sticks?

I’m just not a regular girl and it’s probably nothing, I can get a blood test on Monday at work

Uh yeah, you were really sick last month. W-wait a minute. Are you saying you might be…that you’re possibly…uh whoa. Are you pregnant?

I don’t know... maybe?

Which means it’s something. Okay, out with it Doc.

I just don’t want you to worry. I was very sick a month ago, remember? So my pills weren’t working and now I’m late but I’m pretty irregular anyways and I just don’t think this conversation should be happening right now, Jesus

I…am just looking out for the well being of those I’m close to. Uh, okay..now you have me worried. What’s up buttercup?

Okay, I’ll be satisfied with that... Oh it’s probably nothing, don’t worry

Okay, yeah, probably, I am protective over girls and all. No, no heart attacks. You see this face? I’m too cute to die young. Yeah, just sit me down and warn me in advance.

You know there’s no shame on admitting you actually worry about her, right? Well, take a seat then.

Maybe, would that explain my saying if anyone hurts her I’ll break their hands one finger at a time? I’m just waiting for you to spi out that you’re pegnant one of these days.

That’s you being extremely overprotective, but yes, it would also explain that... Well, we wouldn’t want you to have a heart attack, right? So maybe I should think of a good way of giving said news... if this was the case, of course.

I think you’re attached to her. Thats’ adorable. is the maternal clock kicking inside your brain Faye?

I think it’s something that happens to us girls whether we want it or not, and don’t laugh too much because men also have a biological clock, yours might be clicking without you knowing

But Faye, she is a spawn!

You’re awful, she’s adorable and you should offer to babysit more often
