Baby I'm Amazed {Jimmy Fallon Romance}

Chapter 42

December 5th, 2015

I checked the box in my hand again to make sure I wasn't mistaken, and then I checked under the sink and in the cabinet behind the mirror for probably the tenth time to make sure I wasn't missing it.

I hummed to myself and threw the box onto the counter then left the room and went downstairs.

"Jimmy!" I called when I hit the living room.

"Hey," he said popping his head around the corner of the kitchen.

"Hey," I said with a smile, that man always seemed to bring a smile to my face.

"So," I started once I got face-to-face with him, "I have a problem. And I wanted to talk to you about it."

HIs brows furrowed, "Are you okay?" he asked worriedly.

I smiled and looked down at the ground, "Yeah I'm fine," I said then looked back up at him, "It's just...I'm out of my birth control pills...and I wanted to know your thoughts."

He looked at me confused, "Do you need to go get more?"

I giggled, "That's what I need your thoughts about...do you think I should get more...or just," I hesitated and felt my face flush, "let whatever is going to happen, happen?"

I watched his face go from confused to overjoyed in a matter of seconds, "Is that something you're ready for?"

I smiled and nodded, "Yeah...I mean, I want to have a baby with you, Jimmy, you know that. I didn't even realize I was running out of pills...I went to take it just now and it was empty. I feel like this was a sign."

He grabbed my face between his two hands and pressed his lips to mine, "I want that too," he said once he broke away from me, "If this is what you want I'll stand behind you no matter what. I'm more than ready; I just don't want you to rush something if you don't want to."

"Well then," I smiled, "I guess I don't need to get more."

He pulled me into him instantly and squeezed me tightly which I reciprocated. I pulled back from him and smiled.

His happy face fell and I felt myself frown looking at him, "What's wrong?" I asked.

His eyes started to water and he shook his head once, "Nothing," he said, I gave him a look telling him to spill it, "it's just that...Nancy and I tried for years and it never worked for us. And I don't know why it didn't. I just...I don't want to put you through five, six, ten years of trying for nothing to happen."

"Hey," I said gently, "We're gonna try, okay? And if after a little while we realize we can't, then we'll do something different. We'll try every avenue, just like you and Nancy did. We're gonna have a baby, JimJam, no matter what."

His face was happy again and he nodded, "I love you."

"I love you," I said with a smile, "Are we all ready then?" I asked, looking at the luggage sitting by the front door.

"Mhmm," he hummed, walking over to the dining room with me following behind him.

"Gifts are packed?" I asked.

"Yep, I put them in the car earlier so that it was one less thing to carry," he told me.

"Is it crazy to you?" I asked with a small smile.

He smiled back and nodded, "Yeah, I mean, she's one! I'm just like, where did the time go?"

We were on our way to the Hamptons house for Franny's First Birthday Party; it was just going on 5:30am so we wanted to get over there so we could set up. Nancy and the girls would be showing up around 10am so Franny and Winnie could have a nap and be up in time for the party. Then the party was starting at 2pm.
