"Well it all started when I was in around 26. I was starting to long for a child but I wasn't in any relationship so I figured having a child then was out of the question. Then one day I found this interesting article in a magazine I picked up at the doctor's office. It was about how women could have a child without being in a relationship and I had heard of it before, read a little about it but this article really described the process and what it meant. I ended up stealing the magazine and I think I still have it somewhere to be honest.

The method was using a sperm donor. It wasn't something that I wanted of course, I always knew I wanted a family and that it would be a traditional one; with a mommy, a daddy and a baby. But my longing was really strong and the method started to feel more and more interesting.

It took me a few more years to decide, I didn't want to go through with anything that drastic and then end up finding someone to have a family with. What if he didn't approve of my first child coming from a complete stranger?
Well it was close to almost five years ago that I made the decision, packed up my life and moved to Texas. That's where I decided to have the procedure done. I didn't know anyone in Texas at all; neither did my parents of brother so it was the perfect place. I told my family that I had gotten a job in Dallas and that's why I needed to move. When I got there I was unemployed with only one mission in mind; to get pregnant by a stranger I would never meet.

I went to the clinic, singed in, met with a doctor and before I knew it I was inseminated and expecting a baby girl. All it took was one try and no one was more surprised than the doctor. She had said from the beginning that it usually took at least three tries before anything happened. In all her years of practice, this was the first time where it had been a success from the get go.

And, well here I am; 34, single and a mother to the most wonderful little girl."

Emma finished her story by wiping a tear from her cheek. She hadn't looked at Will for the entire time she told her story. It was just too hard. She was afraid of seeing disapproval, disappointment and disgust in his eyes. She was sure it was there so she was surprised as she felt Will's hand on her own, making her lift her eyes to his.

"Emma, I don't really know what to say. This wasn't exactly what I was expecting at all. For what it's worth, I'm glad you made the decision to go through with it. Olivia is a great kid and, as I said earlier, you're a fantastic mother."

They smiled at each other and sat back in silence once again. Emma was the one to break the silence almost 15 minutes later.

"Have you ever thought about it? Having kids I mean?"
"Yeah sure, I've thought about it. But, like you, I haven't met the right person and I can't get a child on my own, like you did, so I will have to wait a while longer I guess."
They fell back into silence for a few more minutes, both of them deep in thought.
"You know, since you've told me a big secret of yours, you want to know one of mine?" he asked suddenly
"Uh, yeah sure, if you want to share it of course. Don't feel obligated too just because I did."
"No I want too. Uhm, when I was younger, in my mid 20's or something, it was straight after college. I couldn't find a job here in Lima, or anywhere in the state for that matter. I had a friend from college who got a job in Austin, Texas and asked if I wanted to come down and help him out for a bit. He worked as a high school football coach and need an assistant while his regular was out injured. I went down there and had a blast for a few months, then the regular assistant came back and I was out of a job. I stayed in Austin for a bit and spent time with a girl I met and got a long with. It was getting pretty serious but ended as soon as I found out she had been seeing my so called friend behind my back for the entire six months we had been going out. Anyway, I was short on money and need some fast cash to get a ticket back to Ohio. That's when I remembered something one of the teachers of the high school had mentioned that he had become a sperm donor to help paying for his son's medical bills. I looked into it and it paid pretty well. All I had to do was come in and make a few donations and I had enough for a ticket home. I had been staying with my friend while there but after everything I packed up and left. Without the money I didn't really have anywhere to stay so I slept wherever I could find some kind of roof over my head, whether it was under a bridge or in a shelter it didn't really matter. As soon as I had my money I hopped on a bus back to Lima and I haven't looked back once.
The clinic said that I was to be sent a letter if someone used my donations and it was successful. It wouldn't say who used it or where they lived, it would only state that my donation had been of help and what gender the baby was. So far I haven't gotten a letter, so either someone hasn't chosen a brown, curly haired, green eyed song and dance man or my swimmers aren't as strong as they said at the clinic." He finished with a laugh.

Emma had listened with interest to his story but she had never in a million years could've figured out what he was telling her. Hearing that he had been a sperm donor in his younger years got her thinking. She remembered that the clinic in Dallas had mentioned that they had had a shortage of donors for a while and had samples sent to them from other cities in the state that had an overload of them. Maybe her donor had entered a clinic in Austin, she thought.
She couldn't help but think that it had to be more than a coincidence that Olivia had features resembling Will. She had thought so since her first day at McKinley but she had kept those thoughts to herself. She put it down to wishful thinking on her part and there was no chance that it would true. However knowing this new information her suspicions started to grow again.

"It's getting late, I should probably get going. It's a school night after all." She heard Will say, breaking her away from her trail of thought.
"Well at least one of us gets to sleep in tomorrow." She said with a playful smile. "Or at least until a certain young lady decides it's time to get up."
Will stood up, reaching out his hand for Emma to take, helping her off the couch. He didn't let go of her hand until he got to the front door.
"Thanks for telling me everything Emma, it means a lot that you felt comfortable sharing that with me. I'm just a phone call away, or a short walk through the school corridor, if you need anything, okay?"
"Thank you Will. Thank you for not being judging and thank you for sharing as well. For what it's worth, I'm sorry things didn't work out with that girl in Austin."
He smiled as he opened the front door.
"I'm not." He whispered as he turned around and walked away.
