Our Song ON HOLD

26. Impatience

Libbie POV

We had been able to see my doctor and get things moving before Damian had to go back on the road. Now we just had to wait for the embryos to be ready but I was quickly finding that for me waiting was the hardest part.

I was excited and I wanted nothing more than to be a mother and to hold our baby in my arms and I just wished things could move a little faster.

"Patience mi amor" he says as I pace the room while I talk to him on the phone "it will happen we just need to wait a little longer"

"I know, I know I just wish the phone would ring" I say "I wanted to know that everything is alright, that it worked that we have embryos"

"I know I want to know too mi amor" he says "all the tests came back fine there is no reason it shouldn't work. I tell you what I'm home tomorrow we could always stop by his office and see if he can tell us anything"

"Yeah that sounds good" I say "I can't wait to have you here I've missed you"

"I've missed you too" he says "I have to go but our baby will be here before you know it. I love you"

Damian POV

As I end the call I let out a deep sigh, Libbie wasn't the only one who was impatient, I was just the same. I was desperate to know it had worked, that we were a step closer to making her dream come true.

I had also been worrying which had caused some sleepless nights. I was worried about it not working and if I didn't would that mean I would lose her? Would this be a deal breaker for our relationship?

I loved her with all my heart but I couldn't expect her to stay and give up what she wants if it doesn't happen for us.

"When we're you going to tell me Lib was pregnant" Rhea says causing me to jump five foot in the air

"The fuck did you come from you little creep" I gasp clasping my chest "and Libbie isn't pregnant"

"But you just said........"

"I know what I said" I say cutting her off "but she isn't pregnant it's not that simple"

"I don't understand" she says "but I'm not going to pry, if you want to talk about it I'm here"

"Libbie can't get pregnant" I say "she had her eggs frozen and we are going to use a surrogate, we're just waiting for the embryos to be ready. Please keep this to yourself, Libbie isn't finding this easy no matter how much she tries to convince me she's fine"

"Oh man, poor girl" she says "I really hope it all works for you both"

"Thanks" I smile "who knew that doing a music video would get me a fiancée and a family"

"A what?......what else aren't you telling me, you secret keeping little shit" she says slapping my shoulder

"Ow....that's it I swear" I chuckle

"Well congratulations.........it great to finally see you happy" she says "you two were made for each other"

Libbie POV

No sooner had I ended the call with Damian then my phone rang. My heart jumped up into my throat when I saw it was my doctor calling.

Taking a deep breath I answer the call with shaking hands.

"Hello?" I say nervously

"Hello Liberty I'm calling with some very good news" he says "we have been successful in creating several viable embryos, it turns out Mr Priest is a lot more fertile than we thought, the eggs were fertilised alot quicker than expected"

"Oh.....I......I don't know what to say" I say fighting back tears "thank you doctor, thank you so much"

"You're very welcome Liberty" he says "I shall make arrangements for Lillianne to come in for implantation and I will call you when we have a date"

"Thank you" I smile

Ending the call I immediately dial Damians number but it goes straight to voicemail. Remembering he has a show tonight I decide not to leave a message and to call him later.

I find myself just standing there not knowing what I should do now and then the doorbell rings. When I open the door I'm surprised to see Cal standing there.

"Cal what are you doing here?" I ask

"We need to talk sweet cheeks, there is something you need to know" he says entering the house

"Whatever it is I'm not interested" I say "I'm happy and you need to accept that"

"You need to listen to me sweet cheeks this is important" he says

"Cal please just go, I don't want any trouble I just..........."

"Honey he's infertile" he blurts out cutting me off

"What?" I ask completely confused "But he was tested, we have embryos"

"He paid the doctor to lie about the results, he can't give you what you want" he says "he knows he'll lose you if  you find out he can't so he paid them to lie and use a sperm donor. You may have embryos sweet cheeks but he ain't the father"
