He checked for his wallet and keys, pocketing his phone in his jacket to reach out for the small girl. “Hey, no matter the sex, this kid is gonna know good music.” Which was Mason Speak for: i’m happy and I am gonna love this kid no matter what because they’re a piece of you. Interlocking their fingers, he double-checked that Payton had everything they needed before shutting the apartment door behind them, jiggling the knob to make sure it was locked. “Okay, let’s go.” Moments earlier he had been so excited —- and he still was —- but now the nerves had sat in. What if the doctor could sense what a screw up he was and suggested adoption immediately after birth or something? Could doctor’s even do that?

The blond tried to keep his breathing even as they made their way downstairs to the subway, making it just in time to catch the last one of the hour. It was only a short ride to Payton’s doctor’s office, but it felt like eternity, even though literally two minutes had passed. And then, “Can the doctor suggest adoption or is that, like, taboo?” He didn’t want to freak Payton out, but he didn’t want to get blindsided, angry and end up punching an old man (assuming that was who Payton’s doctor even way).

“I know it will, I know they will.” She correct herself, a small laugh escaping her lips. For the past few months she had been diving into Mason’s music, listening to his tunes along with him and getting to know the songs he’d loved for so long so that she could sing along with him or get excited when that certain song came on. Now, the two of them were going to get to share the music they both shared and loved with their new baby boy or girl. she was ecstatic and just wanted the wait to be over already, she wasn’t even sure if she’d make it through the train ride. 

Her hand was intertwined into his as they walked down the subway, a big grin on her lips the whole time. She was excited, that was the only way to describe it, and she had so much planning to do when she finally found out. Her eyebrows furrowed at his question, her head raising off from his shoulder to look at him. “No, no... Mason, he knows we’re keeping the baby. It’s gonna be the same doctor from the first ultrasound we had.” She explained, pressing a small kiss to his cheek. “It’s gonna be okay, bright eyes.”

“Babe, I’m sure it looks great! If you don’t hurry we’re gonna be late! Heh.. hey, that rhymed..” @paytonftw

“God, I love you in a tie.” She let out a small laugh, giving him a little twirl in her black, velvet dress. “Do you think it makes the bump too big? Should I find something else?” She asked, glancing up at him. “Nerd.” She teased.

girl or boy? || 010

It was finally here. They were finally going to get to know the sex of the baby. Mason wasn’t great at expressing how he was feeling, but he was pretty sure this was the happiest he had ever been in his life. Meeting Payton had changed his life for the better and now that she was bringing a baby into the relationship, Mason just didn’t have words to express how he felt. He knew that it would be better in a song anyways, but even that was hard for him to convey at the moment. He was just so in the moment with the whole thing. It had been a whoosh of possible baby names and colors for the nursery room and talks and bets about what they thought it was going to be — and the day was finally here now. They were going to get to know what they were having.

Running a hand over his face, Mason looked down at his phone, locking it soon after seeing the time. “Payton, we gotta go or we’re going to be late to your appointment!” Mason wasn’t a fan of doctors or anything that remotely came with being an adult, but on this day, he couldn’t be more anxious to be sitting in an uncomfortable plastic chair across from someone in a white jacket. He had even kind of dressed up for it… okay, not dressed up for it, but he had worn clothes that didn’t look like he had rolled out of an actual garbage can that morning.

[paytonftw]

Payton had never been so anxious in her entire life. Today was the day they would know if the baby in her stomach was a girl, or a boy. Truthfully, she was betting on a girl, mainly because she had hoped up for a daughter. Of course, she would absolutely adore her child either way. Besides, it was Mason’s child. This was their baby. It was Mason, who was her everything. Now, this baby was her everything, and she was anxiously counting down the days until she could hold them. She would finally be able to buy things after this, and she could make a design for the nursery wall. Of course, she was already way ahead of that. She’d made designs already, thinking of the perfect thing to put in her child’s room.

“Sorry, I’m coming!” She spoke quick, taking one last glance in the mirror with a wide grin on her lips. This was finally it, and she couldn’t be more excited. Her hand rubbed over her stomach for a minute, taking in the moment. “Now, are you a Vinnie, or are you a Nirvana?” She asked with a big grin before closing the door behind her, pressing a kiss to Mason’s cheek. “C’mon, c’mon, I’m excited, lets go!” She spoke, just about bouncing.

“So not only are you wanting to go out and do a real dinner that’s kinda fancy and kinda not either of our styles, but also you want to pay? No, babe, no… we can go out and do the birthday thing, I’ll wear a clean shirt and pants with holes in them, you can get dolled up — I pay, though. My birthday treat to you.”

[paytonftw]

“No.” She shook her head, her arms crossing. “We’re gonna do something different, we’re going to look really good and we’re gonna have tons of fun. Since it’s your birthday, I’m paying. You don’t buy other people things on your birthday, you let people buy you things. I’m buying you a dinner and letting you see me in a dress that’s too fancy and shows off the baby a little bit too much, but I don’t cause ‘cause I’m gonna look great.”

Mason loved and hated the praise — on one hand he was uncomfortable with it because he just wasn’t used to it, but it showed how much Payton really loved him and it made him feel ten times better about himself. He wanted so badly to give Payton everything she wanted and needed, but he just couldn’t, not yet anyways. The blond shook his head, pointing to one of his favorites, next to the fridge. “That’s not the only reason, they’re all just really good and they add life to the apartment.” 

Was this what a stroke felt like? Mason idly wondered as he watched the reaction and realization set in on his girlfriend’s parents’ faces. He wanted so badly to say something and make it all better – but there wasn’t anything. He couldn’t take back the night him and Payton had made love (nor would he) and he wouldn’t suggest getting rid of it. It was their baby. Even with the slip of the news, he had thought her parents would have been a little happy for them. If her father’s face was any indication, they weren’t. At all. He sighed, looking at Payton to check her reaction, not really caring what her father said or did at that moment. The blond thought his parent sucked, but watching Payton’s leave just like that almost beat his – almost. He sighed, immediately wrapping his arms around the tiny brunette. “It’s going to be okay…”

[paytonftw]

Payton needed her parents to know how much she loved Mason. When they were growing up, all they seemed to do was treat her as if she had zero emotions whatsoever. They weren’t amazing to her, and they never knew anything about Payton. Nothing other than the fact that she was a disappointment to the entire family, and that her brother was the star of the show. “Maybe it’s not the only reason in your eyes, but it’s just the only reason in mine.”

A good reaction wasn’t expected. That was pre-established from the start in Payton’s mind. Although, she tried to stay optimistic just so Mason wouldn’t freak out. But this reaction, was not what she expected. She didn’t expect them to walk out. She expected maybe them to yell at her, call her a disappointment, but never just to leave and say they wouldn’t be seeing her for a while. That’s the last thing that she wanted. She couldn’t really think of that all too much, though. The girl sank back into her chair a bit, something inside her crumbling down as tears began to spill down her cheeks. Embarrassed, her hands moved to cover her face, her entire body seeming to curl up. “They hate me.” She shook her head, leaning into him. “Oh, god. They hate me. 

[uhmason-blog]

“… No, no. I’m sorry. I’m being shitty. I get that you want to do something. Maybe we can just go out for a little bit? I don’t want to spoil the whole night, y’know?”

[paytonftw]

“I’m not saying that it has to be big, it just has to be something. To celebrate. C’mon, real dinner, and we can come back home and watch a movie. A nice dinner. A place where we wear clothes that are way too nice with a price that’s way too much, but I’ll pay it anyway since it’s your birthday.”
