open to f/m/nb — based loosely off of ‘the back-up plan’. laurel has always wanted to start her own family and because her family is all types of rich, she decided to privately fund herself going through ivf. of course the second she was successful, she met your muse and they instantly hit it off. she hadn’t told your muse up until this point because she wasn’t sure that it was going to go anywhere but now that she really likes them, she feels like she has no choice but to tell them. (can switch to gif icons if preferred.)
it was just laurel’s luck, if you asked her. she’d waited years to meet someone and settle down so that she could start a family and the second she decided to do it herself, the perfect person came along? the world definitely had a pretty messed up sense of humour. she’d been putting off telling them for as long as she could but now that things felt like they were ready to become official, she realised she had no choice but to break the news. she’d invited them over under the guise of them having a quiet dinner and a movie night, though she’d barely made it half way through the meal before she found she had to tell them. the secret was eating her alive. “so... i actually brought you here tonight because i have something important to tell you,” she admitted, before she took a long drink of water to clear her suddenly very dry mouth. “and i need you not to freak out or anything, okay? it’s just... well, i’m like... pregnant.”
