He nuzzled her, kissing her cheek. "Promise me you'll take that test."
She leaned up, kissing his chin. "Then you have nothing to worry about."

She let out a sigh, hugging him a little tighter. "Fine," she relented. "Tomorrow."
"Okay, fine. If you say so," he said, sighing dramatically. "We going on our field trip today?"

He nodded, kissing her hair. "Thank you."
She smiled up at him. "If you still want to. If you don't hate me for being such a bitch last night." She sighed.

She closed up her take out box and grabbed a blanket, cozying up next to Tyler and watching the rest of the show. She was slowly making up her mind that she would be optimistic about the test tomorrow.
Mike put his hands on her shoulders, squeezing them. "Come on, Mags. You weren't a bitch. Don't talk about yourself like that."

He nuzzled her as she watched, kissing her temple, her hair, her cheek. He was hopeful.
She sniffled. "But I was awfully mean to you. I didn't even kiss you goodnight."

The next day, Rose left work a half hour early so she could take the test alone. She took a few deep breaths as she shut herself up in the bathroom.
He turned the water off, reaching out to grab towels for both of them. "Well, that was pretty mean," he teased, wrapping the towel around her and drying her off.

Later, Tyler rushed home as fast as he could, practically bursting through the door, limping quickly into the apartment. "Rosie?"
She blushed, leaning up to kiss him. "I'm sorry, baby. I'm terrible."

She was still in the bathroom, sitting on the floor, curled up with her head buried in her arms. She was crying.
Mike waved it off, letting out a small scoff. "Don't give it another thought, baby. Just kiss me now and we'll be even."

He heard the crying and headed that direction. He opened the door carefully, gulping. "Baby?"
She did, leaning up and kissing him deeply.

She just shook her head, unable to speak through her tears.
He wrapped his arms around her middle, pulling her closer and accepting her kiss. He curled his tongue around hers, one hand coming up to tangle his fingers in her wet hair.

He moved to sit on the floor beside her. "You took the test..." And apparently, it had been bad news. Again.
She purred into the kiss, pressing closer against him. "Mike..."

"You made me take it," she corrected, not lifting her head from the shelter of her arms.
"That's my name, don't wear it out," he murmured, chuckling.

He winced, touching her back gently. "I'm sorry, Rosie...we'll--we'll go to the doctor again..."
She smirked, pulling back. "Way to ruin the moment, honey."

"What can they do? They can't do anything," she replied, having to take deep breaths every few words as she cried. "Why?"
Mike laughed out loud at that, running a hand through his hair, shaking it a bit to dry it out some. "Come on, let's get ready to go."

He rubbed her back gently. "I dunno, Rosie. I'm sorry." He looked sad, his heart aching for her, and for himself. "Maybe...maybe we should look into in vitro..?"
She huffed dramatically. "Ugh, fine." She moved back to the bedroom, going to her suitcase, taking out a sundress.
