Chapter 25: Clean Clothes
"Alex? What are you doing here? We don't have anything for you yet."
"I knew you'd need clean clothes when you didn't come home last night. I also brought you deodorant, a toothbrush, toothpaste, and clean underclothes."
"You're a goddess. What would I do without you?"
"Not much."
"Wow. Rude. What are your plans for the day?"
"Seeing as it's Saturday, I was hoping you wouldn't have to work and we could go catch a movie or something."
"Or something?"
"We need to pick a house still."
"Why can't you just pick the house? I trust your judgment, Alex."
"I know you do, Liv, but I want you to actually like the house you'll be living in."
"Why are we even buying a house? It's not like we'll be there very often."
"For our kids."
"What?"
"For our kids. I want to have kids with you someday."
"You do?"
"Yes."
"Even though you know my past?"
"Liv, nothing about your history suggests you'll be a bad mom. If anything, it shows how much of a good mom you're going to be."
"Who's going to carry?"
"I will. Unless you want to."
"I'd rather you did. My job…"
"Okay."
"Benson!"
"What's up, Elliot?"
"Let's go. Got a lead!"
"Got it! Gotta go, babe. Duty calls. Love you."
"I love you too."

Author's Note 2: I know most people would automatically assume Olivia would be the pregnant one (and normally I would too), but the way I have this story planned out makes it so Alex has to be the pregnant one.
