Kie's POV:

JJ and I have been together for years. We weren't really focused on having kids until our late twenties and after months of trying and nothing, we decided to go to the doctor. I was told that I was infertile and wouldn't ever be able to have children of my own. We got a second opinion and was told the same thing. I was heartbroken.

JJ came and sat next to me on the couch and I said, "I understand if you want out... I mean if you want more, I can't give you babies...."

JJ moved so he was sitting in front of me on the coffee table. He grabbed my hands and held them and I looked into his eyes. I was crying and he said, "Kiara, you are more than enough for me. I love you with or without kids"

"Are you sure?" I asked

"Yes, I never thought I'd be lucky enough to get married. You are my everything and you not being able to have kids doesn't change the way I feel about you. If kids are something we want to explore, there are options.."

"I know, I just always wanted to be pregnant and it's hard knowing that I'll never experience that"

He kissed my forehead and said, "On the night side, you don't ever have to go back on birth control"

"Fuck, too soon... I'm sorry.. I suck at comforting you and I'm sorry" He said

I smiled and said, "You always do a good job of comforting me. You make smile when I feel like crap and it's exactly what I need. I need things to not be so serious. You're right, fuck birth control" I said as I always hated how it made me feel but I used to take it to prevent pregnancy

"I love you" JJ said

"I love you too" I said kissing him

Over the next few months, I got used to it being just us. As the years passed, our friends all had babies and at times it was hard knowing we wouldn't ever be parents. JJ was the best uncle and I felt guilty that I couldn't give him kids.

We loved being around the pogue and their kids and watching them grow up.

We are now thirty five years old and my period is super late and I didn't really think about it too much but I realized it's almost a month late.

"Jayge, I'm late..." I said walking out into the living room

"Late for what?" He asked

"I'm late.. Twenty five days late" I said and he realized what I was talking about

"Damn... Maybe you should take a test"

"But the doctors said there was no chance. We tried everything. Do you really think it's possible?"

"Only one way to find out" He said getting up and heading to the store to buy tests

He got home and I went into the bathroom and took two of the tests. It's been years since we've done this. I was so nervous. I didn't want to get my hopes up. It was going to be negative.

JJ and I sat on the bathroom floor while we waited for the timer to go off. He held me in his arms and whispered, "Nothing changes, no matter what, I love you"

"I love you too"

The timer went off and I told JJ to look at the tests. His face was different than I've seen before. He started crying as he showed me the two positive tests. I hugged him and we both cried on the bathroom floor. I was finally pregnant after eleven years of trying, it finally happened.

I called and made an appointment. I didn't want to get my hopes up. My luck, it was probably a false positive or something. But a few days later, the doctor confirmed that I was in fact expecting and not just one baby, two. We were having twins. JJ and I were so excited.

We kept it a secret for a few weeks and then we told my family and the pogues and everyone was so excited for us. It was finally our turn to be parents.

I gave birth to one girl and one boy. It was perfect. They truly were our miracles. I would have been happy living my life with JJ, but it felt more complete now that we had kids.

I was right, JJ was the best dad to our babies. He was everything he never had growing up. I loved watching him be a dad. Our kids are the luckiest kids in the world to have JJ Maybank as their dad. I'm the luckiest woman to call JJ Maybank my husband.
