"holland?", I spoke speechless after opening the mail that had been placed under our door
"what is it darling?", holland turned to me as I made my way to the kitchen
"I got nominated for an Emmy", I chuckled
"you're joking?"
"no, look", I passed her the letter, waiting as she read
"oh my darling girl!", holland squealed excitedly, picking me up while spinning me in a circle "oh god I just couldn't be prouder of you my angel"
"thank you", I giggled, my head finding comfort on her chest as her arms were around me
"I just know that you're going to win"
"one can hope", I beamed looking up at holland
"one can also be certain darling", holland spoke calmly bringing my lips to reach hers "when is it?"
"three weeks, will you be my date?"
"of course angel", holland smiled, knowing that I wouldn't have thrown a fit if she had hesitated
"did you reschedule the appointment?"
"yes, tomorrow at four"
"thank you honey", I kissed her again "tomorrow could be the day that I get pregnant, I could be pregnant at the Emmys"
"I know you're beyond excited sweetheart, I am too, but it may take a couple tries. I just don't want you getting your hopes up", holland cupped my cheek
"I know I won't. But you have to think happy thoughts honey, thoughts transcend matter"
"okay princess", she giggled, kissing my cheek before going back to making her coffee
--
"the doctor should be with you in a minute", the nurse smiled leaving me and holland alone
"are you cold princess?, you're swinging your legs"
"a little", I nodded, the light hospital gown making me shiver
"take this honey", holland kissed my forehead while wrapping her cardigan around my shoulders
"thank you"
"Sarah, holland, how are you two today?"
"fine thank you", I greeted
"okay so we have received the sperm and everything is ready for the insemination-"
"what's the likelihood of me getting pregnant?"
"your body works perfectly, and will be more than capable to carry the baby. If you don't get pregnant this time, which could happen, it has nothing to do with you, I promise. We re-tested the sperm and it's strong, I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to fall pregnant Sarah", Erin explained, reassuring me immensely "this is suzan and Jenny, they will assisting me with the insemination", Erin spoke as the two nurses entered the room
"I'll see you soon honey", I looked up kissing hollands cheek
"you can come back in a little while to keep Sarah company, while she rests for a little"
"thank you", holland nodded before leaving
- 3 weeks later -
"where's my Emmy girl?", holland called through our house
"in here", I called back from the restroom, holding the pregnancy test in my hands
I got the confirmation from Erin that I was allowed to take a test and I didn't waist a moment
