After talking for a couple hours, they needed an energy boost and he had gotten up to make some food. He returned to the room and found Fiona talking into her cell phone.
Adam sat besides her on the bed, him in boxers and Fiona in a lengthy t shirt. "Who is it?" He mouthed as he grabbed a spoon full of macaroni.
"Holly J." She mouthed in return and smiled as she continued talking to her best friend.
Holly J was in New York with her husband Declan Coyne. Fiona had called her while Adam prepared their lunch. Her best friend knew of her scandalous behavior in Toronto and Fiona had just informed her of yesterday's actives.
"Maybe he'll come back with me." Fiona winked at Adam as she fed herself some food. He chuckled and sat Indian style; facing her to feed her a spoonful of food.
Fiona then nodded and swallowed, afterwards saying her goodbyes. She hung up and let out a sigh, "Guess what?"
"What?" Adam raised an eyebrow.
"She's having a baby." Fiona smiled, excited for her best friend.
Adam smiled as well. "Really? That's great for her! It's her first right?"
Fiona nodded and grabbed the bowl from him to finish up, "She's pretty happy." She was too, but it made her feel an emptiness inside.
"You want a baby, don't you?" Adam could sense something was on her mind. The reason she had left Canada months ago is because she wanted her life set in motion, but here she was back to base one.
Again, she nodded as she stayed silent. Adam already had a one year old boy. If Becky were to fight for custody, it would cause extra pressure onto his shoulders.
He moved a hand to caress her cheek after she had set the bowl aside. She looked up as he smiled at her, "There's a one out of a thousand chance you can be pregnant."
Fiona looked at him confused, "Um, what?"
Adam took a deep breathe, "A couple months after marriage, Becky got pregnant. I thought she had cheated, ironically. Without a doubt she said it was mine. I went to speak with the doctor and technology has now made it capable for me to have a baby, but it's very slim."
He continued, "Unfortunately, we lost the baby. Three months in, we went to a check up and there wasn't a heartbeat..."
Fiona looked stunned, he had never told this to her. "I'm sorry, Adam..."
He shook his head, "It was a long time ago, but there's a chance. If it hasn't happened yet, I'm not sure. We do have a lot of sex."
She laughed and reached for his hand, "I'd be extremely happy if it happened, but right now you need to file the papers." Fiona reminded him. They both were on cloud nine even if both felt guilty.
"I sure as hell hope I don't lose my son."
"You won't, I'm sure Becky would want you around Joey." She moved to sit on his lap, "and possibly her."
Adam scoffed and kissed her jaw, "I love Becky and I always will, but you're the girl I was meant to be with. I fell in love with you for a reason. I want to have kids with you and explore everything with you."
He looked into her eyes as Fiona smiled, "With Becky I always hesitated with doing anything, but with you it's so easy. I don't have to think twice, and that's what got me to fall in love with you. We understand each other and I just can't explain how excited I am to start this new life with you. And Joseph."
Fiona smiled widely and nodded in agreement, "I love you. I love you." Adam had just answered all her silent
questions. He was ready to start a life with her that she had been waiting for.
They kissed gently. Both were on the same page.
