So just to place the story so you won't be lost.

Elektra and Matt are married for about two years. Karen and Frank are married too and have a little girl named Emely. Karen and Elektra are besties but their husband don't really get along.

This is my first fic and I'm french but I try my best to correct the mistakes.


Chapter One

"We can adopt." Matt say softly as she ties his tie like every morning. The words were tough to hear. At the second the sentence brushed his lips, she felt her heart pounding strongly against her chest. There was absolutely no way he didn't hear it.

"Matthew." Elektra sight, playing with is stupid tie. He already brought up adoption but every time she ended it shortly. She always find a way to stop the conversation before it even start. Unfortunately Matt knows how to bring back the subject again and again.

The other day, just after they made love passionately, he ask. He didn't even wait to breathe again normally. He just ask, messing up a moment she enjoy so much. When they are just laying in bed, naked, skin to skin breathing the same air. So she feign to sleep, of course he knew she pretended however he just kissed her bare shoulder whispering a gentle I love you. Deep down in her she hope that it would help him understand she don't want to have this talk. "You're gonna be late."

"Why are you always doing this ?" This time she could tell her husband had enough. "Why are you avoiding this Elektra. It's been months now..."

"And we tried for about a year Matthew. We tried to have this baby during a whole damn year and for what ? Just to heard a doctor saying we can't have kids."

Matt open his mouth but no sound came out. After a moment he passed his hands on her red robe and rested his forehead against hers.

"We can sweetie." He murmured against her skin.

"Adoption is not a option Matthew." She says harshly, dropping his tie against his shirt. She walked toward the fridge to get some milk. Then her eyes fell on the picture of Emily. Karen and Frank's daughter. A beautiful little girl with blonde hair.

The truth hit her right in the face. She can't have what they have. She can't give her husband a child.

"I...I don't...quite understand." He stutter putting one hand on his hip. "I want this Elektra, as much as you do and we can still have this. We can have a family."

Matt slowly put his hand on her cheeks stroking them softly. He was lost and broken. The news was hard to swallow for both of them. She remembered feeling like someone was stabbing her heart when the doctor put a end to their dream. How she suddenly went deaf, how Matt grabbed her hand entwining their fingers together.

Maybe she was selfish but all she wanted was a kid of her own, having her husband listening the heart of what they created together.

Yes, it was selfish of her but was it hard for him to understand that all she wanted was creating a life. Get pregnant, asking for strawberries in the middle of the night and having some crazy love making desire.

"Adoption is not the same Matthew ." She breath kissing his palm gently. "This is not what I wanted."

"Me neither but..."

"Please don't say it." At this moment her voice was only a whisper. She knows he was disappointed. She could see it in his eyes. They might be lost in the room but she could see the pain. Once again, and even after everything, she still disappointed him, and it's hurt her. Seeing him like this broke her. However she stay silent and watched him swallow hard.

He nodded, put his jacket on and took his cane and his glasses but before leaving he kissed his wife on the lips murmuring a soft "see you tonight."
