family. the one thing Harvey never thought he wanted but now couldn't live without.
Mike getting pregnant wasn't in the plans for anyone.
hell, Harvey was expecting there one night stand to stay a one night stand.
but then Mike got pregnant and Harvey knew he needed to step up and be there for his kid.
it took both of them awhile to realis they wanted to be more than friends and even longer to admit it to each other.
by the time they decided to give dating a try there son Theo was a month away from celebrating his first birthday.
things moved quickly for the two of them after that.
Harvey proposed to Mike on there first anniversary. and they got married six months later.
they decided to have another baby two years into there marriage and after two months of trying Mike found out he was pregnant. seven months later their son Teddy was born.
then a year and a half after that they had twin boys Hunter and Harley.
the pregnancy with the twins was tough of Mike so they decided no to have any more kids again after that.
that leads us to where we are now.
the twins 8th birthday party is later that day and Mike hasn't been able to leave the toilet all day.
"You okay babe?" Harvey asked as he walked into the bathroom.
"no," Mike said from his spot on the floor next to the toilet.
"you've been puking every morning for a week now" Havey pointed out worried about his husband.
"I know," Mike said as he slowly stood up.
"You should really see a doctor." Harvey pointed out as Mike walked over to the sink.
"I will call the doctor up later and book an appointment. right now we have to go and watch our sons open up their birthday presents." Mike said smiling as he walked over to Harvey. "I'm surprised they haven't already started opening them."
Harvey just smiled before grabbing Mikes hand and pulling then out of the bathroom and into the living room where their sons were waiting. "who's ready to open their birthday presents?" Mike asked happily.
"We are." the twins shouted back just as happily.
the family of six settled down in the living room as the twins opened there presents.
"We both know why I've been sick for over a week now," Mike said as he and Harvey were getting ready.
"We don't know for sure." Harvey pointed out knowing exactly what Mike was talking about.
"what are we going to do if I'm pregnant?" Mike asked sitting on the edge of their bed.
"were going to have another baby that's what we're going to do." Harvey replied sitting down next to his husband. "we don't even know if you are pregnant yet so let's not worry about it right now."
"your right. well deal with the twins party today and tomorrow we'll get a pregnancy test and see if I am." Mike planned looking over at Harvey. "maybe we could get one after the party and find out tonight."
"Whatever you want babe," Harvey replied knowing that what Mike needed right now was for Harvey to just be there for him through this.
"Thanks," Mike said as he heard one of the kids shout from down the hall. "we should probably hurry up."
Mike and Harvey finished getting ready quickly before they made their way into the living room where all four of the kids were playing one of the twins new board games.
"can you four we need to get going," Mike said sad to be making them stop when they were actually all getting on.
"But we're playing dad," Hunter said sadly.
"would you rather play our board game or go to your Party?" Harvey told his son.
"party," Hunter said as if it was the obvious answer.
"then stop playing the game and help your dad get everything ready for your party," Harvey told the twins with a smile on his face.
"Okay Papa," Harley said as he got up and walked over to where Mike was sorting out the party stull while Hunter grudgingly followed his own brother.
the party was a success the twins having have a great time with their friends. with Theo and Teddy even having a good time even though no one their age was at the party.
luckily for Mike, he had promised the twins there favourite fizzy drinks to have with there dinner so he had to stop off on the way home and he was able to buy a couple of home pregnancy tests.
so that night once the kids were in bed Harvey and Mike were seat on the edge of there bed pregnancy tests next to them on the bed waiting for the timer to go off to see if Mike was pregnant.
"I hate the wait so much," Mike said squeezing Harveys hand.
"I've never had to wait before." Harvey reminded Mike.
"it was horrible with Theo. we weren't together, the last thing I wanted at the time was a baby. I was so nervous." Mike admitted looking over at his husband. "it was completely different with Teddy. we had been trying to have a baby and I was so excited when I saw the plus sign. the twins was kind of a mixture of both. we hadn't been planning on having another baby but I know I wanted another baby and I was pretty sure you wanted another two." Mike finished talking just as the timer went off on his phone.
Harvey worriedly handed Mike the pregnancy test and watched as his husband turned it over in his hand. "I'm pregnant," Mike said quietly a minute later. "what are we going to do Harvey?"
"were going to have another baby," Harvey said as he realised he was actually happy about this.
"I'm forty-two now Harvey there's more risks for the pregnancy. what if what happens with the twins happens with this one?"
"then we'll deal with it if that happens. after the twins when we decided not to have any more kids you were sad, you kept saying that you always wanted to have a big family. this is a really good thing, Mike."
"I know it is I'm just nervous." Mike said looking over at his husband. "of course I'm happy about this. another baby. I'm really happy." Mike said a couple minutes later when he two realised how happy he was about this.
