A/N: Hello Everyone! I am back with a new one-shot! Hell yeah! A few things I want to say is 1. Go watch k-12 if you haven't yet because it will be taken off YouTube soon and (I believe) be pit on streaming services. So watch it before you might not have the chance too, 2, If I got anything wrong about IVF treatments and y'all know what I got wrong please tell me. I tried to do my best with research but I still may have made some mistakes. Please point them out if there are any.

(Y/N)'s POV

  This was something that I've been thinking about for the last few years, having a baby. It just struck me after I went to a friend's baby shower. I realized I wanted that too. I originally thought it would never happen as I'm with a woman, my beloved Melanie, and we would more likely adopt a child in the future. It just wouldn't be the same for me though, I wanted to have my own child, half of me, half of my DNA. And as I look down to my hand with the blood test results in hand, my dream was becoming a reality. I may have spent most of my savings on the treatments but I had gone to my doctor and told them what I wanted. They directed me to a good and trustworthy sperm bank and the rest is history. My only worry is telling Melanie. I haven't exactly told her that I was doing this. I didn't know how she would react and then I didn't really care, now I do.

  I always intended for Melanie and I to raise this baby together but with not telling her I was getting the IVF treatment, I don't really know how she'll react. We had talked about having kids some but it never really came to a conclusion on what we would do or how we would do it. I just hope she's happy and still wants to be with me and wants to have the baby with me. I think I'll tell her over date night next week. We're going to have dinner here at home so maybe it won't go so bad.

~Date Night~

  I had finished cooking dinner for Mel and I. I constantly had to make her leave the kitchen so she wouldn't know what we were having. I make us spaghetti since it was a special occasion of some sorts. I had gotten Melanie a card that said: "You're going to be a Mommy" on it and inside was an ultrasound picture, real bad quality as the baby wasn't really anything yet but the thought counts. I just hope Mel reacts well to this.

  We were sitting across from each other at our dining table talking about normal things, for use at least. We talked about how the promotion for her new album k-12 was going, how touring was probably going to be a killer. After that she asked me what I had been up to, seeing that she hadn't really been home much. I decided that I was going to wait till after dinner to tell her about the baby so all I replied with was, "Oh you know, the same old stuff. Been working at the café and just hanging around." She looked at me kinda weirdly because I usually tell her about every little thing that has happened to me when she had been gone for a little bit.

  We had started cleaning the kitchen up when she wrapped her arms around me, "Is something bothering you darling?", She asked with worry in her voice, "You just seem to be closed off a bit." I turned to her and held up my index finger signaling for a minute. I walked to our closest that was closest to our front door, getting into my bag. I pulled out the card, perfectly sealed in a pastel yellow envelope. I walked over to Melanie and handed it to her, "This is for you." I looked down at my feet while she opened it.

  Her wide smile had turned down a little as she read the front of the card. It came back not shortly after, "What does this mean." She didn't really ask it more them state the sentence as she knew what it meant. As she opened the card the ultrasound picture almost slipped out, she graded it before it could. She looked at it a little bit, her smile fading even more. I started to get scared. She looked at the card seeing that I had written everything in it in case I couldn't tell her myself. As she read it her smile grew wider again.

  "Babe, why didn't you tell me you want a baby?" That's all she said, looking at me waiting for an answer. "I don't know, I just thought you would want to wait longer since you're about to go on tour I just thought you would want to wait longer. I couldn't wait longer though." I didn't cry, I couldn't. If I cried Melanie would have fallen into my arms and would have said it was okay no matter what. She hated to see me cry.

  "If this is really what you want them I'm all for it!" She had said it with the biggest smile of her case as she wrapped into a big hug. That's when I started crying. "I was so scared you wouldn't want the baby, " I almost yelled, "I was so scared you would leave me!" With snot running out my nose and hiccuping, Melanie rubbed my back and told me sweet nothings of how much she loved me and how much she already loved the baby. Saying things like "I would never leave you Honey." and "You are my home.", I knew I had the best person next to me to raise this baby. I raise our baby.
