Hey guys! Thanks for waiting so patiently. Here is the epilogue part 1! Hope you like it! (I made it part 1 because I may make a part 2 that takes place 3 years after this one)
...
3 years later…
Serena walked into Nate's office and locked the door behind her.
Nate smiled at her. "Hey baby."
Serena slipped off her heels and slid her underwear off from under her skirt then climbed on Nate's lap. "Hey."
Nate gave her a look. "Baby, I'm at work. I have a meeting in 15 minutes."
Serena ignored him. They'd been trying to have a baby for months. She'd been tracking her cycle and she wasn't about to miss any opportunities to get pregnant. "I'm ovulating. This needs to happen now. So shut up and focus on getting it up."
Nate laughed and kissed her deeply. Serena kissed him back in all the places she knew excited him the most. When he was finally ready she undid his belt and pulled off his pants and boxers. With one quick motioned he was inside of her and she moved rhythmically until she felt his whole body tense up. She closed her eyes and bit her lip as he finished inside of her. Please give me a baby. Please, please, please.
She climbed off him and kissed his lips. "Thank you."
"Where are you going? You're not done."
She shook her head. She knew it was crazy but she was afraid she'd flush all his sperm out and she needed as much as she could possibly get. "I'm fine. I'll let you get back to work." She put her underwear back on.
"Alright." He pulled his pants back on. "We should do this more often."
…
Serena took her fifth pregnancy test. She'd been drinking water all morning so she could have this much pee in her. She'd ovulated almost 2 weeks ago and she'd been having non-stop sex. She looked at the results. Negative, Negative, Negative, Negative, Negative. She'd have settled for inconclusive. She sat on the bathroom floor and curled up in a little ball. She didn't understand why this was happening. She'd dragged Nate to the doctor to be checked out and they were both perfectly fine.
Serena wiped her tears and waited for the red in her eyes to disappear. She didn't want Nate to see her crying. She looked at her watch; she was going to be late for a photoshoot. Landing a 5-page spread in Vogue was amazing, but not as amazing as having a baby.
After lunch, Serena met one of her friends for lunch. "I want a baby more than anything."
Her friend, Emily nodded. "I do too. I brought you something." She took out a bunch of brochures and handed them to her. "There are so many kids who need homes. I just started the adoption process myself. They don't care that I'm an actress on a hit television show, they don't think I'm a good candidate because I'm not married."
"That's bullshit."
"I have a good case. Still it may take a year before anything really gets done. Maybe you should look into it. I know you want a baby of your own and you have Nate and everything but you should take a look at these."
Serena nodded. "Thanks, Em."
…
"The adoption process takes up to a year. We need to start looking into it now."
Nate flipped through all the booklets. "Wow…I didn't even know you were considering this."
"Nate…I know how badly you want a baby of your own. I'm sorry I haven't been able to give you that. I'm so sorry."
Nate hugged Serena. "Hey, don't ever apologize for that. These babies would be just as much ours as one that would come from in here." He bent down to kiss her stomach. "Let's take a break from all this baby talk."
Serena nodded and followed him to the couch. Right when she sat down her cellphone rang. "Hey Blair!"
Nate could hear Blair's voice from next to Serena. He was amused by her excitement.
"Wow…really? That's…that's amazing. Blair. I am so happy for you." She listened to Blair some more. "Alright well tell Chuck I say congratulations. Nate does too. Bye."
Serena hung up her phone and buried her face in her hands.
Nate looked at Serena. "What is it?"
"Remember how Blair was telling us she was gaining a little bit of weight? Well, she's pregnant. 3 months pregnant."
"Oh."
"I know I should be happy for her, Nate. And I am. But they weren't even trying! It's so unfair."
"Serena…" He put his arm around her.
She pulled away from his grasp. "I'm fine. Just a little tired. I'm going to bed." She kissed the top of his head quickly. "Night."
…
"Serena, I've already told you everything is fine."
Serena sat in her gynecologist's office. "We've been trying and trying and trying and nothing. We have sex all the time. 5 times a day if I'm ovulating. It's getting to be work. I'm running out of costumes to put on to get him excited."
Dr. Putnam smiled at her and drew her blood. "I'll have them run these. Now lay back so I can check."
"I just want to know if there's something you may have missed. I'm taking all sorts of vitamins."
"Serena…"
"Yeah?"
"I'll be right back."
Serena sat up and frowned.
Her doctor came back smiling. "Just checked your blood work and based on your iron count and what I saw down there I'd say you're about 4 weeks."
Serena started back at her blankly. "What do you mean? I'm pregnant?"
"Yes."
She jumped up and hugged her doctor tightly. "I'm pregnant! I'm pregnant! Oh My God. Nate is going to freak out!"
Dr. Putnam laughed. "Congratulations." And here. "These are the best pre-natal vitamins around. Make sure to take them. And I'll see you in a couple of weeks to make sure everything is going well."
"Yes!" Serena pulled the hospital gown off and put her clothes back on. After all this, she couldn't just tell Nate she was pregnant, she needed to make it special.
…
Serena walked into Nate's office and handed him a present. She'd called ahead to make sure he wasn't busy. She needed his undivided attention.
"A gift?" Nate kissed her. "For me?"
Serena nodded. "Open it."
Nate unwrapped the box to find a card. He smiled at Serena and read: Dear Daddy, I am only 4 weeks old but I already love you so much. Can't wait to meet you! Love, your baby.
Nate felt his jaw drop and took out what was in the box. It was a yellow onesie and it blue letters it said 'I love my Daddy.'
Nate felt the tears in his eyes and looked at Serena. Serena smiled at him and nodded. Nate walked over to her and kissed her deeply. He dropped to his knees and kissed her stomach over and over again.
Serena giggled. "Can you believe it!"
"When did you find out? What happened? Holy shit. I'm gonna have a stroke. Wait, I meant holy crap. We can't curse in front of the baby. Can he hear us? Or she? Do we know if it's a boy or a girl?"
Serena looked at him. "Nate, calm down. I went to the gynecologist and she told me I'm 4 weeks pregnant! I guess that day in your office paid off, huh? I don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet."
Nate laughed. "There is no way in hell we are telling our baby we conceived her or him in my office chair!"
Serena laughed and wrapped one arm around his neck and placed one lovingly on her tummy. "Thank you for giving me this."
Nate smiled. "Thank you. Can you believe there's going to be another person growing inside of there?"
Serena shook her head. "No, I really don't. It's incredible."
"I love you so much. I can't even describe it." He kissed her forehead.
"Me too, Natie."
Nate grabbed her hand and walked over to his desk. He sat in front of his computer and pulled her onto his lap.
"What are we doing?"
He typed 'baby names' into the browser. "We have a lot of work to do."
