When Dreams Become Reality

Part 42

A/N This chapter was inspired by this amazing commercial, man, and his mom. Patrick's mom had a long battle with ovarian cancer. Patrick is partnering with Stand Up To Cancer and Fifth Third Bank. If you would please go on Twitter and tweet how you fight and use the hashtag #howifight. $1 will be donated. Now on to the chapter.

----------

"So Patrick we would be honored to have you be our spokes person for our campaign. You have done so much for fighting cancer and that is the type of person that we are looking for." Says the President of Fifth Third Bank.

"Well this is something close to me so of course I wouldn't turn down this kind of job, but I do have to talk to my wife since I will be filming in Miami."

"Of course. We look forward to hearing from you very soon."

"Thank you for the offer I will let you know very soon." I say as I shake their hands.

"Honey I'm home!" I say as I walk into the home that we built together. The foyer is filled with pictures from when we're dating, when we got engaged, from our wedding, and when we had our little girls. It pains my heart that Kaylee was only here for a short amount of time, but I know she is in heaven with her grandpa, my dad, and the fact that they aren't alone makes me happy.

I think back to when we found out Sam was pregnant. That day was such an amazing beautiful day. Of course the days leading up to that day were not the best and I wish that I could take back and change it all, but I know that I have a chance to change that because we want more kids. Lily turns one next week and we said that we would start trying after she turned one. I can't wait until same is pregnant again. I love touching her bump all the time and talking to it. And I can't wait to do it all over again.

"There you are." I say as I walk into Lily's room where Sam is reading to Lily as she puts her down for a nap.

Lily's eyes become wide open when I come into her room. She immediately has a smile on her face and reaches her arms towards me.

"Thanks a lot I was trying to get her down for a nap, but you couldn't have waited two more minutes." Sam says angrily. "Have fun trying to get her to go to sleep. I have been trying for over an hour!" She says as she leaves the room.

"Hmm ok Lily let's go to sleep so I can go see what's wrong with mommy."

"Ma?" Lily says whimpering after Sam leaves.

"Sam!!!!" I yell.

"What??" Sam says dryly when she comes back to the room.

"Lily just said her first word!"

"What she did?!?!" Taking a tearful Lily from my arms as Lily snuggles back into her mom's warm embrace.

"Yes. After you left the room she started whimpering for you and said ma."

"Oh my baby is growing up so fast. Where has the time gone? You are turning one next week. It seems like yesterday I was just giving birth to you."

I walk over and take Sam into my arms with Lily in between us.

"That's why I was thinking that we should have another baby. We talked about trying again when Lily turned one and her birthday is next week so we should."

"Sounds perfect. I love being pregnant."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

----------

We are sitting down for dinner and I immediately remember what I needed to tell Sam.

"So babe I was at a meeting today for a new commercial that they want me to do. It it a Fifth Third Bank commercial and they are partnering with Stand Up To Cancer. The commercial would be filmed in Miami so I told them I would talk it over with you since it is cross country."

"Babe that is an awesome thing that they are doing and I think you are the perfect person for it. You do so much for cancer so it makes sense that they want you to do it. You should really do it."

" I want to but are you ok being here for a few days while I go shoot this commercial in Miami?"

"Don't worry we will be fine. I'm used to you being a way for a few days for racing so absolutely you should do it."

"Ok I'll call my agent in the morning to let them know I'm in."

"You amaze me." She says from across the table and I reach for her hand and we just stare into each other's eyes.
