Our story begins in the waiting room of a pregnancy clinic. Amongst the varying couples sat a brunette man, with reasonably neat hair, aside from one strand of hair that stuck out of place. He wore glasses that only seemed to magnify his violet eyes. His hands lay on his lap balling up into fists every so often, the action revealing how nervous he really was, along with how his eyes kept glancing at the entrance.

The man tried to calm himself by taking deep breaths and focussing his vision on the posters on the wall, each containing information and tips on pregnancy, this only made the man's stomach churn even more.

It was at this point when another man entered the room he was a tall white haired man, with bright crimson eyes. He stood there for a minute gaining a few stares before spotting the brunette and making his way over to him.

"Roddy I know you're probably really ma~"

"Gilbert."

The albino paused and decided to take a vow of silence before sitting down next to Roderich.

"You said you would be here on time today. You promised." He snapped ringing the end of his sweater.

"I know! And I'm sorry, I really meant to be here on tim~"

"Then why weren't you!?"

"Listen. My car broke down so I had to take the bus, but that only took me half way, so I ran the rest of the way, and I know this doesn't make it better, but I love you, and I'm sorry"

Roderich sighed, but accepted the ex-nation's excuse for tardiness and apology. He didn't have the energy to be mad at Gilbert, not today. The reason Roderich was so stressed and the reason they were at the pregnancy clinic is because for the last year, they had been trying (And Failing) to get pregnant. So today they were here again to see what the problem really was.

A million thoughts were running through his head all at once.

'What if we can't get pregnant?'

'Is it my fault?'

'Is it Gil's?'

'What if we never get pregnant?'

'Will that affect my country?'

'My people?'

Along with a million other things, Gilbert looked at him and took Roderich's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. Roderich smiled at him, but his partners comfort did nothing for the wave of dread washing over him. He looked around the room at the different couples. Most with smiles on their faces, Oh how Roderich envied them.

A woman in a lab coat walked out of the examination with a clip board in hand. She had a long brown pony tail with a few streaks of grey through it. She squinted at the clip board and called out "Roderich Edelstein?"

Roderich and Gilbert stood up together holding hands, there were a few hushed whispers as the two made their way into the examination room with the doctor, which was to be expected. I mean what would two guys have to do at a pregnancy clinic? But what most didn't know was that this was a special clinic. And this particular doctor had been recommended to us as a doctor who treated nations.

We got into the room and sat down, and she shook both of our hands.

"Hello there, I am Dr. Gretel Dorfmeister, It's a pleasure to meet you"

"Pleasure" Roderich replied, not really in the mood for idle chit chat. The examination room was filled with more pregnancy posters, and it had the distinct smell of disinfectant. There was a bed aswell with a slightly crinkly paper towel over it.

The doctor turned to the computer and pulled up the Edelstein-Beilschmidt file, quickly reading through it.

"So it seems you two are having problems, reproducing."

"Yes."

"And how long have you been attempting to get pregnant?"

"A little over a year." She quickly typed that into the file

"Uh huh, and tell me Roderich have you ever had any sever injury to you abdomen? Any kicks, punches, falls?"

"Well I'm a Nation of course I've had quite a few injuries?"

The doctor sighed "That could be the problem. If you have received extensive injuries to that area, it is highly likely that you may not ever be able to conceive."

The room fell silent for a few moments as the information sunk in, Gilbert couldn't bear to look at Roderich at that moments, all he could do was take his partners hand and give it a squeeze.

"Now this doesn't mean that you'll never be able to have kids. We don't have a whole lot of information on Nation's reproducing so we don't know
