"Do you really think this is a good idea? I mean do you think we're ready for something 'this' big?"
"Honestly?... I'm not sure...but I do have confidence in us."
"Are you sure? We're still in the car... We can still cancel the appointment..."
"...I'm sure...calm yourself Kevin...it's going to be ok" Eddward said softly. A small smile on his face for reassurance. Trying to calm his husbands nerves.
Kevin's shoulders seems to relax a little as he smiled back,softy squeezing edds hand for comfort. A year and a half after their marriage , the subject 'children' came into the couples view. At first they both shrugged it off , but after a while edd started to think about it more and more. Little did he know that Kevin shared the same problem until one night edd sat Kevin down and brought the subject up. The red-head was shocked at the 'out-of-the-blue' subject, but then confessed to edd he had been think alot about that lately too, to edds relief. That night they sat in deep conversation. At the end Kevin felt fairly confidant about their decision. But now...now that they were in the car... Infront of the building...he couldn't deny. He was nervous. He was surprised his lover was staying to calm. But as Kevin gaze into the others deep '0cean blue' irises, he found himself calming. Once he felt his heart slow to a regular pace, he gave edds hand one last squeeze before they both exited the car. The two walking hand in hand into the building.
They were both greeted by a nice looking amber headed lady. "Hello! You two must be the 'Barr' couple! I'm Stacy!" She said Ina cherry voice. The two nodded and she reach out to shake their hand. She the gestured to the door behind her "well your right on time. Shall we go see the kids?" She offered and edd glanced at Kevin who looked at her and nodded "yes. Thank you"
She turned her heal an lead the two to the door. Once she opened it edd, and Kevin were over whelmed with kids everywhere. All different sizes and ages. Ones as young as half a year old and ones old enough to be in their later teen years. Kevin and Eddward were wide eyed still at the door. Stacy ushered then inside "go ahead! Talking to anyone you want!" She said in that naturally happy voice she had. Kevin cleared his throat and pulled edd inside the loud busy room. Edd gulped and let him do so, dispite the obvious germ issue. Stacy stood at the door and watched. Kevin and edd glanced at the teenagers in the corner who all just scowled back at them. Edd quickly turned away from them. Kevin fallowed edd through the room. Edd glanced from kid to kid. After 15 minutes of looking, each kid completely rejecting or ignoring the couple. Edd sighed and turned to Kevin "this is hopeless" he said softy. Kevin softly and rubbed his arm "it's ok...you knew we might not find them today...but I'm sure we will if we keep looking...they just might not be at this building...they might be somewhere else and we just have to go look for them..." He said. Edd turned his head to the side "yah...I guess your righ-" edd stopped in mid-sentence as he gazed to the side. Kevin gave him a weird look "edd?...eeedd?...edd what's wrong?" Kevin asked as he turned his head to see what the other was looking at.
Edd was gazing at a child. Around a year old with naturally 'leafy green' hair. Just sitting there alone cuddling a cactus stuffy. A book infront of him ,upside down, looking at the plants in the much to advanced book, as happy as can be. Edd slowly made his way over to the child that simply took his breath away for a reason unknown to him. Edd knelt in front of him catching the little boys attention.
The little greens headed boy looked up at edd with a blank face, before breaking out into a giant one toothed smile that just melted doubleDs heart. Edd gazed into the little ones big green eyes.
After a moment of the child studying edd , he kept his cactus stuffy tight under his little arm ad reached up at edd making little grabby hands. Edds insides warmed up as he happily reached out and took the child in his arms then stood.
Kevin had stood back to watch the while scene. He was smiling wide as edd made his way over to him,child in hand. Kevin gave him a 'you sure?' Look and edd smiled wider and nodded. Kevin gave a nod and they walked bak to Stacy who was still smiling as wide as ever. "I see you two met jim! Wonderful! Now lets go take care of some paper work shall we?!"
Once the paper work was done with, she gave Kevin all of Jim's clothes and car seat. Stay told edd how Jim came to them with the stuffed cactus and that he never lets anyone else touch it. How he never barley let it go. Edd nodded understanding. He remembered that how he was with his hat. It was (is) a comfort thing. She walked them to the door. Edd was just playing with a giggling jim. Kevin chuckled and thanked Stacy then out Jim's stuff in the trunk as edd properly put the car seat in the back then buckled jim up. Jim was giggling and happily kicking his feet. Edd chuckled at the happy baby then got in the front with Kevin. They both took a deep breath "well...here we go" edd gripped his hand as they pulled out of the parking lot and headed home.
Edds parents left their house in his name,which he was thankful for, so when he and Kevin decided it was the right time,Kevin moved in with Eddward. They got all new furniture so the house would have that modern clean feeling to it that edd liked. He and kevin shared his parents old room.
When they got to the house,they took jim inside to show him his knew home. They took jim upstairs to doubleDs old room,which was currently a quest bedroom, which they were soon Going to turn into Jim's room. Edd hesitated for sanitary reasons but then he let him crawl around the floor to explore his new room. They then all sat on the bed and Kevin looked at edd "so...I guess this is it...we're parents now" doubleD nodded "no turning back" he said in a slightly uneasy tone. Kevin pulled him into his arms "hey...everything is going to be ok...it's just one kid.i mean how hard can it be raising one kid?"
