Emily's pov

"Em" Alison softly says, twisting around in her spiny chair until she smacks her leg off her desk

"Yes Alison?" I question, taking a bite of my sandwich

"Do you remember Leo's birthday?"

"Alison that was only two weeks ago. Of course I do. Why?"

"Do you remember our conversation that night?"

"I remember we didn't do much talking... although your tongue was moving a lot" I smirk while wiggling my eyebrows

"Emily" she says, lowering her voice and sighing

"Yes, I remember our conversation Alison. It's just that you didn't mention it and I assumed you changed your mind"

"Changed my mind?! Of course I didn't. I thought you had"

"Wow. We really need to get better at communicating" I laugh

"Well actually...I'm glad you didn't change your mind because I booked an appointment for after school today with the adoption agency" Alison blushes

"Which one?"

"The one Aria and Ezra used"

"I can't believe this is actually happening we are going to an adoption agency to adopt a beautiful baby boy" I smile, leaning towards Alison to kiss her

Our lips are so close that I can feel her warm breath against my face, when a student bursts into Ali's class

"Ms DiLauren...Fields... I'll ummmm go" the pupil awkwardly says, retreating from the room

"No it's okay. Can I help you Jackson?" Ali says, her cheeks colored with embarrassment

"I was just going to ask a question about the homework" he stutters, looking at me and Ali as if he's watching a tennis match

"I'll leave you to it" I say, jumping off her desk while awkwardly biting my top lip

"Goodbye Ms Fields, thanks for the...advice" Alison says in an attempt to pretend that if Jackson had walked in a second later he wouldn't have seen two teachers making out.

Emily's pov

I watch the boys swim team race up and down the pool and repeat all their names in my head trying to pick the perfect name for my little boy, when I get a sudden burst of panic "what if we aren't accepted? What if they'll want him to have a male role model in the house? Fuck we aren't getting a baby" I panic to myself

"Ms. Ms. Ms Fields, can we go get changed now?" My student Ethan asks me

I look up to him and his face begins to morph into a baby. Soon the whole swim teams faces are babies. They begin to walk towards me, all muttering that I could've been their mom...if only I wasn't gay.

Ali's pov

I skip towards Emily's class, although she doesn't have a free period like I do, I am too excited to wait till I see her after school; because within an hour we could be on the adoption agency's list. I pull open the door to the swimming pool and see a bunch of boys crowing around in a circle. I automatically assume their is a fight and run towards them, my high heels wobble as they smash off the floor

"Shut up. Shut up" I hear Emily scream

Pushing through the crowd I find my wife curled up in a ball on the floor. She is rocking back and forward with her hands over her ears.

"Move. Go get changed now. Go" I order

The boys leave as Emily continues to rock back and forth
