Family Matters

His Reaction

Miles POV

"I'm pregnant..."

Those two words were the world to me.

"Really?"

"Yes...we're going to have another baby"

Maya smiled and I put my hands on her stomach, Maya giggled

"He or she is going to be happy now that we can be happy." I said to Maya

That night I took my wife and kids home, where they belong...with me.

Maya and I were sitting on the couch like every night after the kids were in bed,

I was laying down and Maya was laying on top of me (A:N/ this is just like the scene from No Surprises when Miles went to Maya's house)

"Do you want a girl or a boy?" Maya asked looking up at me

"I don't know, what do you want"

"I kinda want a boy, don't get me wrong I love Chloe and Maddie but I feel like Max is all alone besides having you."

"Is it wrong to say that I'm sick of having girls?" we both chuckled

"I mean I love the girls but I feel like Max and I have a special bond and I want a boy of my own that I can share that with."

Maya became quiet and we sat in silence for a minute

"Do you regret anything with me?" Maya asked softly

"No...absolutely not. everything that we have been through is an example of how strong we are. when you weren't here I felt so along, you are the love of my life Maya...i don't know what I would do without you or the kids."

"I love you Miles."

I have her a kiss on the forehead and stroked her hair as she looked at the tv

"Do you have a favorite kid..." I asked her, not expecting her to answer

"If I had to pick one, I would choose Maddie. I mean I know it's wrong to pick favorites but Maddie is well behaved and I love the rest of the kids but I think Maddie is the best out of them...and she's part you." Maya said looking at me

"Well I can't argue with that. and I think she gets her best qualities from you, you are amazing at everything."

"Well thank you but I hardly doubt that being able to play the cello is an amazing thing."

"You can sing too."

"Do you want the kids to play sports or anything?" Maya asked me

"Well...i want Max to play a sport and I want Chloe to play the cello like you, since she looks like you too, and I just don't want Maddie to grow up."

Maya was silent again, meaning she was thinking.

"Would you be willing to adopt Max and Chloe?"
