Gavin and I immediately passed out on the couches after we got home from the airport. We woke up the next morning, still in the living room, but Gavin had fallen onto the floor and I somehow took up the whole couch. He had to of woken up before me because when I woke up, he was dressed and ready for work, sitting at the opposite end of the couch with my feet in his lap. "Morning sleepy head," he cooed. I yawned, "Not like you to be up so early." He just shrugged. "I'm gonna go get ready," I announced before rolling off the couch and walking for the bedroom. I picked myself out some clothes, one of the shirts Geoff designed and some blue jeans, before jumping in the shower. I got out and dried off, putting on my clothes and feeling energized enough to put in my contacts. I walked back out to the living room and sat next to Gavin. He was smiling so big I thought his cheeks might rip. "What's got you all giddy?" I asked, almost jokingly disgusted. Gavin unlocked his phone and handed it to me. It was a map of the office with dots and riddles on it. "What the fuck does the mean?" I handed his phone back to him. "I had Ryan help me out with this over the phone while I was on the plane. It a hunt for you and at the end is something special," Gavin explained to me, looking proud of his idea. I tried to think of a special occasion that would make him do this and I froze when one came to mind. Today was our wedding anniversary. Fuck, how could I forget that!

Gavin dragged me out to the car and I drove us to work. When we walked in the office everyone was smirking at us. I walked over to Geoff as Gavin sat at his desk, talking to Jeremy. "You forgot didn't you?" Geoff whispered to me. I nodded, mad at myself. Geoff slid me a red box, wrapped with black ribbon that was small enough to slip in my jacket pocket, "I had a feeling you would with the shit storm going on in your life. It's a little charm bracelet that I know he'll love." I sighed in relief, "Thank you so much, Geoff. I'll make this up to you." Geoff shook his head, "Don't worry about it. Just go do that silly scavenger hunt." I slipped the box into my jacket pocket and slid my hand in to cover it as I walked over to Gavin. Both him and Jeremy stood up. My phone buzzed and I looked at it, seeing Gavin texted me the stupid map. "So what am I supposed to do?" I looked up at him. "Just follow it. Lil J's gonna help you out, boi. He's your living GPS," Gavin chuckled and left the room. I looked over at Jeremy who led me out the door. We followed the map and made it to a riddle, which Jeremy helped me solve, that led us to our next spot. We kept doing this until we got to the last one which Jeremy walked away for.

When I got into one of the sound booths, which was the last spot, the lights shut off and scared the shit out of me. One light flashed on to reveal Gavin holding what looked like a form. I walked up to him, extremely confused. "You said you wanted kids, and I agreed with you, so how about we sign the documents, too?" Gavin rhymed and held the papers out toward me, along with a pen. "You seriously did all the to have me sign adoption forms on our anniversary?" I questioned. Gavin nodded nervously, "I thought it was cute! You haven't changed your mind on the kids have you?" I smiled and shook my head. I snatched the papers out of his hand and all the lights came back on. I walked over to the wall and pressed the paper up to it so I could sign them. Gavin was so odd sometimes, but I loved that about him. When I turned back around after signing, Gavin looked so happy. I took the box Geoff gave me and handed both the paper and pen to him along with the box. Gavin raised an eyebrow at me before opening the box. Geoff was right, there was a charm bracelet in there and Gavin's eyes lit up when he saw it. It had a bear head charm, a creeper charm, a wedding ring charm, a heart charm, the Team Nice Dynamite logo charm, along with both an American flag charm and a British flag charm. It was designed just for us and it was wonderful. Gavin looked up at me and smiled. I took it from him and hooked it around his wrist.

We walked back to the office with our hands intertwined. Gavin handed me the papers so I could put them in my bag. The rest of the day was normal. "We have to stop at the place before we go home," Gavin noted as we got into my car. I nodded and sled him to pull it up on GPS. What we decided was we were going to do that thing were the insert our sperm or whatever into a woman who holds our baby and then once she gives birth we get to keep it. We voted on Gavin to be the one to donate for us. I followed the GPS directions to the clinic and we walked inside. We still had our papers that we signed. Gavin slipped his hand into mine as the lady, who's name tag read Carly, walked us into another room. "We're going to be bringing the future mother into the room shortly so you three can talk it over," she tapped her pen on her clip board as she stood up and continued to talk, "But first we need to get a sample of the sperm. If you could please follow me to the other room sir." Carly motioned for Gavin to follow her in which he did and left me sitting awkwardly alone. I heard a door shut and she walked back into the room, sitting across from me, "Is this your first time?"

"Yeah, was my leg bouncing too obvious?" I joked. Carly chuckled, "Don't worry. It's just like having a regular child except neither of you carry the baby." "So uh, who's going to be carrying the baby?" I repositioned myself on the couch. "Oh, let me go get her," She smiled and stood up, walking out the door. I took out my phone and checked Twitter. Carly came back in followed by a woman who looked awfully familiar from the side. I put my phone away and caught a better glimpse of the woman as she sat down beside Carly. "Lindsay?" I questioned, being able to put a name to the face. She smiled, "Hey Michael." Carly looked confused, "You too know each other?" We both nodded. "We uh- we used to date actually," I explained. Carly just let out a 'hm' and nodded. We heard the door open and turned to see Gavin walking back in, awkwardly holding a small plastic cup, "Lindsay?" "Hey Gavin," Lindsay greeted. Carly jumped up and took the cup from Gavin, "Lindsay dear, would you come with me?" Lindsay nodded, waved at us, before going off with Carly. Gavin sat down next to me, "So Lindsay will be carrying our baby?" I nodded, "What fucking coincidence," I chuckled. Gavin frowned, "No cursing around our child." "Our kid's not even a cell yet!" I argued. Gavin just chucked and kissed my forehead.
