Eden
I was currently at work physically, but my mind was elsewhere. Last night, Shedeur & I went out to celebrate our anniversary. These past 2 years had been the best years of my life, but he'd dropped an unexpected bomb on me.

As Shedeur and I left dinner I was sure I looked silly. I was sitting in his passenger seat blindfolded and smiling from ear to ear. The day had already been so special, and I had no idea what else he could possibly pull out of his sleeve.
"Alright sit tight, imma come around and get you." He stated while putting the car in park. I sat patiently while he got out the car and eventually came and opened my door for me.
He grabbed my hand and we only walked a few steps. "Okay take it off."
I did as instructed and was met face to face with him holding a set of car keys. I gasped in shock before turning around to see a black range rover in our driveway.
"No you didn't! Oh my god bae this is so nice." I squealed in excitement as I grabbed the keys from him and walked over to further inspect the car.
"And you got the red interior!" I exclaimed as I opened the drivers side door. I turned around throwing my arms around his neck, placing multiple kisses on his lips.
"I'm glad you like it. I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone." he said with a shrug.
I chuckled a little, looking up at him with a raised brow, "What you mean?"
"It's your anniversary gift, and an early push-present." His response caused me to let him go, now only staring at him in confusion.
"Did you secretly get me pregnant and I don't know it?" I questioned, trying to figure out how I could be pregnant and not know it. Shedeur was laughing, but I didn't find anything amusing right now.
"I'm saying I want to get you pregnant Eden."
"Huh" I said considering it was possible my ears were playing tricks on me.
"Let's have a baby ma."

Now last night, emotions were running high and he looked too good to resist, so I let him have his way with me. I had basically physically...and verbally said things to him that equated to me agreeing to have his baby.
But this morning I'd gone to the store and bought a plan B. I hadn't taken it, but I was considering it. Now don't get me wrong, I love Shedeur and I would happily give him a mini-me. I'm just worried he hasn't really thought this through.
When the time came to get off work I was happy, only wanting to go home and unwind. I was glad that Shedeur wasn't home yet, it just meant I could put off the conversation for a little while longer.
I headed inside, set down my belongings, and went to run myself a bubble bath. Once the water was ready I put my airpods in, hitting shuffle on my chill playlist, and then eased into the tub. It wasn't long before all my stress and troubles, seemed to melt away.
I opened my eyes to the sound of my music stopping, looking over to see Shedeur standing by my phone with the plan B box in his hand. My heart immediately dropped, I'd forgotten I had put it in my purse earlier.
I removed the airpods from my ears, "I can explain." I stated, hating to see the unreadable expression that rested on his face.
"I'm listening." He calmly stated, taking a seat on the edge of the sink.
"Well you see it's unopened so I didn't take it...I was just thinking about it."
"You agreed to it last night, what changed?"
"Well of course I agreed last night. You were rearranging my insides, what was I supposed to do when you asked? Say no?" I sighed, "Shedeur I really would love to carry your child, but I'm just wondering if it's the right time. You're only 21, you're in your prime in terms of football, I don't want a baby to mess up nothing you got going on."
"I wouldn't have asked if I didn't think it was a good time Eden. Besides you 29, I'm not a fertility expert or nothing, but I don't want to wait too long and end up regretting it."
He had a point. It was something I'd thought about when our relationship first started, but I said I'd tackle the issue when it got here. I wish I'd thought about it a little more, because I was at a crossroads right now.
I sat in silence, making Shedeur move closer, now sitting on the edge of the tub. He reached down grabbing my hand, locking eyes with me.
"It's your body Eden. But I don't want you making the decision worrying about me, no matter what I got going on I'm always gone prioritize making sure you straight, especially if you carrying my child."
I searched his eyes, seeing nothing but love behind them, and that was enough for me. Shedeur was everything I'd ever wanted in a man, and even if it was scary, I knew I could count on him to be there for me and our baby.
"Okay Shedeur. Let's have a baby." I said, my mind now free of doubts.
He smiled at me before leaning down placing a kiss on my lips. When the kiss started to heat up, he pulled away.
"Come on, get out of here so I can shoot up the club again then we can talk about names." he said while standing up. I laughed as I climbed out the tub, pulling up the stopper to allow the water to drain. He didn't even let me dry off good before scooping me up and carrying me into our bedroom.
I know making the baby would be the easiest and probably the most fun part, but I wasn't worried anymore.
With Shedeur by my side, I had faith that every part of this journey: the good, the bad, and the ugly, would be worth it in the end.
