"And… done," Jack said pridefully as he placed the final glow-in-the-dark star sticker on the ceiling. He turned to address Beverly, who was observing from the doorway. "What do you think?" He gestured to the room with his arms open wide. "Not bad for my first ever nursery, right?"
"It's perfect," she agreed as she cradled her large belly. He came over and gave her a peck on the lips, and then turned back to face the room.
"Yea… I just wish the stars were accurate, though," he said wistfully.
"Well…" Beverly pondered, "just think how much space is out there that has yet to be explored. And if the universe is infinite, it stands to reason that every possible configuration of stars exists somewhere. So, this is an accurate map of… somewhere. You just have to go find out where."
"Beverly, have I ever told you how much I love you?"
"Hmm, you may have mentioned it."
"Well, have I ever mentioned how sexy you are when you talk about theoretical stellar cartography?"
"No, that's something I've never heard before!" she laughed.
"Well, you are," he said again.
They continued their banter as they left the nursery, and enjoyed what would be their last night together before they became a family of three.
