Chapter Text
Mason and Kieran have been out of school for a few years now. Cella and Blake are planning on having a kid soon and Maria and Annalise already have 3 cats because they don’t want kids so Mason has finally sat Kieran down to talk because he wants kids and he can tell that Kieran does too.
Mason was waiting in the living room when Kieran got home, he had Kieran’s favourite movie up on the TV, a cup of tea for himself and a cup of blood for Kieran. Kieran put his bag down and took his shoes off then stopped in the doorway “Ok, Mason, what are you trying to convince me to do now?” Mason looked up and smiled “Nothing, I just want to know where you stand on something”. Kieran sat down on the couch next to his Fiancè “Where I stand on what?” “On us having kids…”.
Kieran looked Mason in the eyes, a confused look on his face “What brought this up?” “Well, Blake and Cella are planning on having kids soon, and Maria and Annalise are already cat parents and I really want to have kids so I want to know where you stand on us having kids”. Kieran just smiled, he wanted kids, he knew he wanted kids for a while he just didn’t know if Mason wanted kids.
After a while of discussing how many kids they wanted, they called Cella’s phone, also preparing to have Blake pick up. It took about a second for Cella to answer the call “Hiiiiiiiiii, I haven’t seen you guys in so long! I miss you!”. Kieran flinched and pulled the phone away from himself “Hello to you too Cella” “Sooooo why’d you call me? Normally you just text me everything.” “Yea, uh, me and Mason have a question for you-” and before he could ask the question Cella somehow already knew what he was going to ask “Yes, you two should adopt kids, but adopt an older kid and a younger kid, because normally people either want babies or like kids between 8 and 11, adopt kids that are less likely to get adopted”.
_________________________________________________________ The Next Day
Mason smiled and held a hand out to Kieran, today was the day. They were at the adoption centre, they weren’t planning on adopting any of the kids today, they just wanted to meet some of them. They walked in and walked to the front desk. “Hi, we’re here to meet some of the kids?”. The lady at the desk looked up and smiled “Hi, are you planning on adopting today or just to meet some of the kids?” “Just meet some of the kids,” Mason said, a soft smile on his face. The lady smiled back “Alright, what ages are you thinking about adopting?” Kieran answered this time “An older kid and a younger kid” “Alrighty, I’m gonna call someone up here to give you a tour and introduce you to some of the kids in the age groups you’re looking at”.
A man who looked a few years older than them walked over to them “Hey, Y’all! How can I help you?” Mason came to the rescue because the man's accent was too strong for Kieran to understand “We’re here to meet some kids” “Well, alrighty, what ages were you wanting to adopt?” “An older kid and a younger kid”. The man nodded and gestured for them to follow him.
They walked through a couple doors till they got to a room with a bunch of tables and chairs and couches. An older boy was sitting by a bookshelf reading what looked to be Alice and Wonderland and other stories. Mason looked at Kieran and smiled, already knowing that he wanted that boy to be his son. Kieran was looking around the room at the other kids when his eyes landed on a girl that looked skinnier than the other kids, he was immediately concerned about the girl being underweight.
