He heard soft sniffles coming from the other room. Walking into the living room, he found her sitting on the couch, knees pulled up to her chest. She had wrapped her arms around them and was resting her head on them as well.
Rushing to her side, he sat down and pulled her into into his arms. Turning in his arms, she sobbed into his chest.
"Oh, Mac," he said, his voice catching in his throat.
Tightening his arms around her, his own tears began to fall.
"I thought it would happen this time," she cried.
"So did I," he sighed.
"What if we never conceive a child?" she asked, tearfully.
"We will, Mac."
"How do you know?" she asked.
"Call it a feeling."
He gently lifted her chin off his chest until he was looking into her eyes. "But no matter what happens, even if we never do have a child, I will still consider myself to be the luckiest man alive because I have the love of an amazing woman, who I am lucky enough to call my wife."
She still felt sad, but there was a hint of a smile playing around her mouth. She could feel the deep sadness develop into the very beginnings of hope. She lay her head back down on his chest.
"I love you, Sarah."
"I love you, Harm. So much."
