This is less of a Kristy chapter because the point of view of Elizabeth. I've been working on various stories and decided to take my next off day to finish what I started and keep going. This is set in the Netflix verse where how I'd imagine Emily Michelle would be introduced.

Hope you like and please review!


The room was quiet as a young Asian girl about twenty or so, sat in the Brewer living room. Her black hair pulled up in twin french braids and bangs falling off her eyes as she swept them to the side. Her pregnant stomach showed beneath a faux suede black jacket and striped back and white tee.

"Kids this is Michelle Wu," said Watson as Kristy, Charlie, Sam, and David Michael were relaxing in the living room. "She's putting her baby up for adoption and she's considering us to be the new family."

"Hi," said David Michael waving from his spot.

"Hi," said Michelle as she smiled and looked down at the folder she had in front of her.

Elizabeth "Liz" Brewer watched the girl hopefully. She told her they were in the running of two families, the other a couple in New York. She hoped that her and Watson's love story and their close family dynamic would give her a reason to choose them. At least it was wishful thinking as she wrung her hands. Adoption had been far from her mind when they decided to stop trying hormones and Watson deciding to adopt her kids.

All of that changed when Olivia Sung from work was telling her that her niece was looking for an adoptive family. She was a medical student with a full schedule. The niece, Michelle, wasn't going to abort and decided to give the baby up to a family that wanted children. It was a nice gesture as she and Watson went through the process provided by Love Bundles. They didn't think anything would come of it but then they got the call.

Then they met her.

Now she was here in her living room with a decision.

She had no reason to pick them but Elizabeth had hope. It was a chance that she could raise a child with a man that she fell in love it. It wasn't like she could adopt Karen and Andrew, they had Lisa and Seth.

"It was very nice to meet all of you," said Michelle. "Kristy good luck finding someone to add to your business and Charlie on your college applications. This is one reason why I like this family, all of you are very ambitious and intelligent young people."

Watson had squeezed Elizabeth's hand and she gripped the couch.

"I'm choosing you," said Michelle bluntly. "I'm not the motherly sort and I'd like the baby to go a family that can keep up with a growing child and has experience. I have the paperwork and would like for you to sign it while I'm here."

Elizabeth felt like the pit in her stomach had dropped. They were chosen?! As in she'd get a baby to raise with a man she loved. She'd get a baby as she felt tears prick her eyes.

"Thank you," said Liz as she reached for a pen. "I know that this is closed but you're always welcome here and to-"

"I know my aunt told me a lot about you Liz, which is one reason why I chose your family. It takes a lot of strength to raise a family on your own and I admire that. I don't have any requests only that your raise her well."

"It's a girl?" asked Liz as she grinned.

"It's a girl have you thought of names?"

She had million as Liz reached out to hug her. It wasn't a long hug as Michelle had reluctantly hugged her back. She could feel David Michael and the rest of the kids gather around them for a bear hug.

"I've always liked Emily," said Watson as she giggled but nodded.

"As long as the middle name is Michelle," insisted Liz smoothing her hair out.
