Chapter One
Yuri's PoV:
As I pondered about the future in our lukewarm bed, one thought kept intruding my mind.
Although it was not a new thought, the mere idea made me feel disconcerted but somehow... thrilled.
This thought brought up the two most important things to me and Victor, life and love, but in a way I've never imagined before.
By now this thought had been occupying my mind for months and with every moment I felt I could just burst keeping it in.
I guessed that Victor would be less that approving, knowing how anxious he is when it comes to this topic but, we shared everything with each other and not telling him would be a sin on the foundation of our relationship.
I was going to tell him. My heart beat started to increase rapidly and my breathing quickened.
Stop it. Man up.
I tried to control my breathing as I didn't want Victor's opinion to change based off of how I was.

"Vitya..."
"Yes Yuri ?"
"I've been thinking..."
In, In, Out, In Get a hold of yourself
"What do you think about kids?"
Out, Out, In, Out, In
"They're amazing, like having a drunk best friend with you constantly."
Out, Out, In, In
"Would you ever like having your own?..."

"I've wanted one since the day I've married you, Yuri."
I couldn't hold it in anymore; I catapulted myself at Victor and tangled my fingers into his silver hair.
"I love you Vitya."
"I love you too Yuri."

Victors PoV: Before I knew what was happening, Yuri and I had just completed filling out the forms for adoption.
It had been two months since Yuri had asked me and to be frankly honest, he nearly seemed more exited than I did.
We had already decided on getting a boy and we had only put the bare minimum into his room so that he could decide what it looked like, the only thing we hadn't done yet was, getting him.
I will never forget that day, the 21st of April.
We walked through the white double doors into the children's play room.
It looked like one of those crèches you'd bring your child to if you couldn't look after them that day only, this was their everyday life.
The floor was covered in a soft foam material that looked like puzzle pieces connected together.
The walls were a baby blue decorated with paintings of cartoon jungle creatures.
The kids sat on the floor and were playing with legos.
It seemed that they barley noticed we were in there with them, but they must've been used to having visitors at this stage.
They all sat in a circle around a huge crate of legos, Yuri had already joined them and was chatting to them while he made what looked like a penguin.
There was one boy though who wasn't sitting with the others but seemed nearly content in just being by himself.
He had shoulder length blond hair and green eyes that looked blue in the light.
His figure was very petite; so much so that he didn't look a day over four.
In his hands was a lego sculpture of a tiger that looks like he made by himself, judging by the proud look on his face.
I went over and sat next to him.
"Hello, my name's Victor. What's yours?" I asked in the kindest voice I could muster.
He didn't reply; he just sat there and continued to play.
"Did I say something wrong? He just completely ignored me. The blond kid." I inquired to the receptionist
"Blond kid? Oh you must be talking about Yuri."She replied
"Yuri?"
"He... he was abandoned by his parents on the side of the road. He's been a year here but even now he barely talks. Poor kid... he's traumatised."
I couldn't begin to express how I felt to the woman.
This poor kid, living the nightmares other kids dream about; only for people to act like he must be okay.
He was still so small... and as I watched his petite silhouette I couldn't help but think about how he must have waited for his parents to come back.
How he probably cried.
A lonely kid on a lonely road.
And before I knew it...
"They're all so cute!" Yuri laughed "Its hard to choose."
"Actually..." I replied "I think I already have one in mind."
I was already thinking about how to make that child smile.
