for you
After Jen yelled at Mia to leave, she thought about that for a week, she wanted to apologize. But she also wanted to tell Mia she loved her, unconditionally. No matter what had happened between them, being with one another is where they felt everything fit into place. Days felt like months without each other.
Jen decided to try and fix things, so she drove over to Emily’s where she knew Mia would be at. Before she came over, Mia had taken more pregnancy tests, just to make sure, and she was crying. She had tried to pull herself together before answering the door, but she could be vulnerable around Jen, so she didn’t mind Jen hearing her sound like she had just been crying. Emily had been out with friends so she wasn’t there, she didn’t even know Mia was pregnant yet.
Mia heard a knock at the door. ‘Hey...’ Jen said, Mia being surprised, not really expecting for Jen to come over, especially as she had been crying after taking more tests that were all positive. ‘...hey...’ Mia said, still sniffling from cry. ‘Can I come in?’ Jen asked, Mia immediately responding with a yes in a sweet tone. Within that moment, Jen broke down, telling her how she wants to be there for Mia and the baby, how she wants to be a family again, the more Jen said everything Mia wanted to hear, she teared up, soon having tears run down her cheeks, she didn’t hold back for one more second, and kissed Jen without hesitation, she missed her, more than anyone would ever realize. Having a family was all Mia ever wanted, she couldn’t imagine it with anyone else no matter how complicated it was. She hugged Jen after kissing her, letting her guard down completely, she cried in her arms after. Not having to say a word to Jen, she already felt safe enough to where she didn’t need to even say a word. At that moment Emily walked back inside, seeing as though Jen and Mia had clearly made up, she comforted Mia, making her feel the safest she had ever felt. After Mia cried, she was exhausted, but Jen had already left by then so she couldn’t sleep next to her, which made her feel empty inside, but the next day she told Emily she was leaving, and thanked her for being there for her, hugging her after.
Mia immediately came home, being welcomed home by the boys with big hugs, they both said ‘welcome home mom’ while hugging her, she had let out a single tear, and kissed their foreheads. She finally was getting the life she wanted, the life she deserved, even if it wouldn’t be easy at times. She was happy.
But Jen and Mia took one last pregnancy test together, they waited for the results, and every test came out positive. Jen being happy for Mia, and for one another, said ‘you did it’ to Mia. After, Mia corrected her, ‘no. we did it.’ They kissed each other sweetly, Jen spinning Mia around, ending with a cozy hug in each other’s arms.
Mia was told at 19 she couldn’t get pregnant, when she left the doctors room she was in, she was met with Jen immediately, who she had called just to be there for her, like they had always been there for each other, Mia cried in Jen’s arms that day, holding her tight to make her feel safe, they didn’t need words, being there for each other was enough, even though Jen had told her everything was going to be okay. And she was right. She was going to be okay. They were going to be okay. Mia was finally going to be a mom. Even though she was only 7 weeks pregnant now, she was going to be the best mom, the most caring, and the most loving.
