Chapter 52: Chapter 52
All day I thought about knocking on the door to see how the girls were doing. Really I wanted to see if she had found the dress she likes and wants to wear from the selection Laken had or if she is going to the store and picking another one instead.
A knock comes on my office door and Laken is in here with me. Since we both decided it be for the best to keep me from wondering to the office just right a reach from mine and his.
"Come in." I look up from the computer and in walks Keslie and Valan.
"How did you like the dresses?" I start with instead of just asking if she found one.
"They were all very nice. Though there is one I do have to ask why on the fact it looks like some old century gown because that made us laugh hard seeing." Kelsie snickers.
"That was actually a joking dress we have used as pranks around the office." Laken laughs and coughs.
"Well Val and Naida got me to try it on just for the giggle of it." Kelsie laughs and shakes her head.
"Yes but she did find the perfect dress." Valan smiles wide. "So that dress with your consent will go with me and been hidden away for a few days until needed."
"Of course, that is not even needing to be asked." I chuckle.
"Great! I will see you at home." Valan kisses Laken and then takes off. "No peeking out of the office!" She exclaims before shutting the door behind her.
"Those were some very nice dresses." Kelsie walks over and I pull her down to my lap.
"Please don't start something with me literally right here, because it is not like I can leave your office yet. Give me just a few minutes, please." Laken chuckles.
"We wouldn't do anything in front of anyone like that." I chuckle and he nods.
"Other than the toy that she must have been wearing yesterday." Laken smirks.
Kelsie coughs and pats her chest. Guess she choked on her own spit.
Right as she catches her breath and recovers, we hear the rack of clothes being rolled across the hall. Followed by Valan by the door. "Dresses back in your office and I am off with the one."
Kelsie smiles wide.
"Can I at least know which one?" I look to Kelsie.
"Nope. I hope it is a surprise until the wedding and I will not even tell you the color it is." She smiles brightly.
Within a five minutes, Laken bids us a good evening and is taking off for the day. Our walk through early this morning was successful and the mass production is in the process of being started. Then we were finishing up on things that need to be shipped out to other corporations.
Knowing that this level is empty of anyone, I close out of all the files from work and leave the screen blank, before opening the drawer next to me and laying a folder in front of us on the desk.
"There is something I have been working on and I hope it doesn't make you upset."
"What is it?" Kelsie turns her head to look at me.
"Like I said, I hope you don't get upset but it is something when I could I been gathering information. I haven't officially spoke to anyone because I wanted to know your stance before speaking to others. This is just things I have gathered myself."
I am stalling and I know I am. It is not nerves on the outcome of this but more the nerves on how she may react.
"Aiden, please just tell me. I will not get upset." Kelsie speaks gently.
I open the folder and pull out several of the papers inside.
"This is all things to do with IVF."
Kelsie is still on my lap but I can tell her eyes are racing over the pages, before getting misty.
"Aiden." Kelsie softly says me name with a small sniffle. "Are you sure about this? This is not just about what I would want but you too."
I spin her to where she is straddle of my lap and my hand comes up to cup her cheek.
"This is something I want too. I promise it is. Honestly, I never thought about being a parent but with you I want that if you do and I know we would be great parents. I can't be selfish with you and just keep you for myself only. I want to be able to help you and give you something for both of us. If it still doesn't happen we can look into other things if need be because even if we adopt we would do it together and raise a child."
Tears slips from her beautiful eyes and she leans in to kiss me hard.
"Thank you so much for this Aiden. I love how you think and I agree with you."
"So would you like to go over the things I found and compared to your diagnosis of uterine fibroids and PCOS that causes all the problems you have had."
"Yes please, show me what you have found." Kelsie smiles and I spin her back around.
I go to pick up a paper but Kelsie's hand touches mine.
"Before we dive into this, I want you to know I won't be upset if all of this fails. Like you said we can adopt if we want to in the future and it would be a sweet thing to do, but if that is the route we take if this fails we could wait a few years before we go that step. It would give us time too just spending it together. Is this something you want to wait on with the IVF for a bit or start right away?"
"I am more than happy to start right away. This is something I will start when you're ready and we will go all at the pace you are comfortable with because with you, my love, has to accept it going through more than I will have too. The only thing I promise is to be here every step of the way."
Kelsie nods. "I love you so much Aiden and thank you for researching and trying this."
"I love you Kelsie. I will do and be anything you need me to be. Seeing you since Naida told us has hurt me so much and I don't like how you brush it off. It shows how strong you truly are but I want to bare the weight with you too with knowing how much you want this."
She turns her head and kisses me once more.
"So try this and then if it doesn't work we can adopt in a few years?"
"That sounds perfect, Cookie."
"I am excited but don't want to get my hopes up to much." Kelsie sighs.
"Lets just look over this and then schedule to talk to a fertility specialist." I kiss the side of her head.
We dive into the information I found and Kelsie nods or ask questions. Some leading to us going on medical websites that fertility clinics have to where we actually find the doctor we would like to see and use for this journey in our lives.
