Sorry, this chapter is kinda short, but I wanted it to be like this for a
reason. So enjoy.
"So, I lied." Karen said after they had finished eating and were just sitting and enjoying one another's company.
"Lied about what?" Will asked, sitting back and crossing his legs, while swirling his drink in his hand.
"We can find out tonight. Right now, if you're ready." She looked over at him, and watched as the swirling wine in his hand stopped swirling. He slowly leaned forward and uncrossed his legs.
"For real?" Will asked quietly. He could feel himself starting to sweat in anticipation, a rush of needing to know washing over him.
"Yeah." Karen got up and went to the couch where she had left her purse. She dug around in it until she found the box. She pulled it out and held it up to show Will. "I had Rosie go and get it this morning." She looked afraid, and Will wanted to reassure her that everything would be fine. He got up and went to her, wrapping his arms around her. "I couldn't do it, Will," She whispered, "alone."
"But you're not alone. We're in this together." Will pulled away and grabbed her shoulders, looking into her weary eyes. "I'm here. Come on, you can do it." He turned her towards the bathroom.
"Why do I always end up doing this with the gays?" She smirked, remembering back to when she had thought she was carrying Stanley's child and Jack had been there for her. Suddenly a pang of guilt came over her and she felt bad for not telling Jackie.
"Now, I'll wait right here." Will said before she could close the door.
"Ok, mommy." Karen gave him a childish grin.
"Hey, what'd I say about the mother terminology." He said before she gave him a sarcastic look and closed the door in his face.
