Lainey and Kelly checked out of the stocking making about one leaving Robin and Patrick to put the rest together. Patrick looked over at Robin. She had some ribbon in her hair and some glitter on her nose.
"Patrick, you're starring." Robin said.
"Can I ask you something?"
"I guess." Robin said looking at him.
"Are we ever going to talk about what happened and why you don't believe me?"
"Patrick, it's late and if that conversation leads to yelling we'll never get these stocking done and the kids are counting on it." Robin said looking away.
"I know, but I think at some point we have to talk about it. Robin look at me. You know I am not going to give this up and you've see I am doing everything I can to prove to you that I am real."
"Patrick, I want so badly to believe that this is what you want. That you want us, but I have this little voice in my head that sound an offal lot like my father telling me I have to be careful or I might get my heart hurt again and Patrick, I couldn't take that again."
"I would rather hurt myself then you ever. Robin I know in time you will believe that I am real, but I want you to always know this. You are the first women I have ever allowed to get close to me. You are the first to see into my heart and soul. You have seen me naked and not just in bed."
"I know that Patrick and that is what scares me. I have seen all of you, but there are parts of me that you have never seen. Parts I keep locked away."
"Tell me." Patrick said.
"I can't. I am not ready for anyone to know then yet." Robin said tears forming at her eyes.
"Ok, well when you are ready I will listen." Patrick said whipping the tears that fell.
"Patrick, if I show you something will you keep it a secret?" Robin asked.
"Yes." Patrick said.
Robin got up and walked to the room. A few minutes later she walked back out with a small box. She sat back next to Patrick and opened the box. Inside were baby clothes all folded and stacked nicely.
"What are these?" Patrick asked.
"Each year I buy one outfit. Something gender friendly. Some day I want my baby to wear these. Patrick I dream about a baby every night. Over and over again. And that night you told me you loved me I saw that baby clear as day. And it scared me because I kow you don't want kids."
"I never said that." Patrick said. "Robin, I have never been in love so imaging kids was just something I didn't do. But When you stormed into my life I could see them. As time went on they got clearer and clearer. Robin I do want kids. I want your kids."
Robin had frozen at his admission.
"You want my kids?" Robin asked dumb founded.
"Yes, I want your kids." Patrick said. "I want everything with you."
Neither knew what happen next but his lips met hers and they were lost in a passionate kiss. Patrick was lowering Robin to the couch when they heard a beeping.
"What the hell." Patrick said.
"It's my alarm. I set it so if we fell asleep we would wake with time to finish what we didn't do." Robin said. "Sorry."
"No, we have to finish. We will have plenty of time to be together." Patrick said.
Robin put her box of clothes away and they went back to making the stockings for the kids.
