After a long day at work.. and not holding down her lunch, - for about a week actually - which she didn't tell Sam because she knew he'd demand that she stay home and get sleep and try to feel better. A friend at work though convinced her she was pregnant and really, that had Quinn's mind tumbling with ideas. She worked in a lawyer's office, was

That picture is adorable. Sorry for the tl;dr.

Sam was in love with his job. He could go as far as saying he was in love with life lately. Everything was more or less perfect. He owned his own comic book store, which he considered the best job ever. It kept him feeling young, but that wasn't to say he hadn't grown up. Maybe he was a big kid in a grown man's abulous body sometimes (Quinn's weight was the same and so were Sam's abs), but he could be a mature, responsible adult when he wanted to be. He had his own place with Quinn and he was happily married to the most beautiful woman of all time and space who he loved dearly. There was, perhaps, one thing missing. A baby. Babies, actually, because Sam wanted more than one. But they'd never sat down and had a serious conversation about it, maybe because the B word was a sensitive subject. She had a baby once, then she'd given it away. He knew even after all these years it was still painful for her to talk about. A discussion about having a baby without Beth coming up was out of the question, and he didn't want to upset her by

Quinn had heard Sam calling out her name and chose not to answer, just in the off chance he'd ignore looking for her for.. five more minutes. But she knew better and was proven wrong when she heard him gently knock on their bathroom door. She actually glanced at herself in the mirror as if asking herself if she should answer, but she didn't want him like.. busting down the door.

"I'm in here." she finally piped up. "I'll be out in.. four minutes, okay?" and she also knew Sam would wonder why four minutes, so she thought of something right off the top of her head. "I'm uh.. dyeing my hair and I have four minutes left." Okay, that'll work and was pretty good for having to think that quickly for a reason.

He did indeed wonder why four minutes. Why the precision? And then she mentioned she was dyeing her hair and his face sort of fell.

"You're what?" He knew she could pull off any hair color, but he loved her blonde hair. It was so... golden. "Why? It's not permanent, is it? Let me in." So that plan had backfired on her. He hadn't wanted to come in before, but now he definitely did.

Crap. She should've known he wouldn't have liked that idea. "No. No, just give me four minutes. Well, almost three now. You'll like it, I swear." Seriously? She was still rolling with this lie. It was worth it, honestly. Especially if her test came out positive.

She really wanted to get him away from the door for three minutes though. So.. "Hey, want to go order something for dinner? Doesn't matter what."
