"You want more kids?" she asks her boyfriend without really thinking. Having always thought he didn't want more considering his age and the fact that he already had the perfect daughter.
"You don't?" he fires back smoothly and she feels herself freeze in her steps at the question.
Her eyes quickly found his with a shocked expression as she realizes something. They're real. If she were to have kids with someone it would be with him. She doesn't have a kid and even if he does that doesn't mean she has to give up the thought of having one of her own, with him.
"I-" she's not sure what to say. Does she want kids? Well, maybe. But not now. Not so soon.
"Don't worry, you don't need to answer, just saying. The option would be nice," he says with a calm in his blues, telling her just how okay it was for her not to give him an answer right away.
And god, it only made her love him even more. The smile spreading on her lips is hard to sustain and quite frankly she doesn't care. Loves the smile that mirrors back on her.
"Come on," she says. She gives a quick look around to make sure no one's watching them before she gently takes his hand and tugs him with her towards the elevator.
They meet glances and she can't help biting her lower lip. The discussion isn't over, just put on pause for now. When the time comes she knows they'll decide together.
THE END
