"Rye?", Andy knocked on the bathroom door, "are you alright?"
When he didn't get an answer, he decided to go in. He tried opening the door but it was locked. "Babe, please open up. What's going on?"
Again, no noise of acknowledgement from inside the room. Now Andy started to get really worried. "Rye, if you don't open now, I'll grab a coin and open up myself. Please, babe, I'm worried."

Finally Andy's words came through to the younger brunette. The door swung open slowly to reveal Rye, with tear stained cheeks and bloodshot eyes. As the blonde saw his state, he immediately took him into an embrace. "Negativ?", he asked. Rye nodded into his neck as a sob wrecked through his body. "I.. I j-just...", another sob interrupted his stutter. The older tried calming him by caressing his back and tangling his fingers into the brown curls. "Shh, it's gonna be alright. We'll think of something, it's okay", the blonde whispered.

Andy slowly walked backwards into his room, dragging Rye with him. Letting them fall onto the bed. They snuggle up under the covers. Rye's head tugged into his boyfriend's chest. Every now and then, Andy could hear a whimper leave the brown eyed lips. Therefore he tightened his arms around Rye to comfort him even more. "It's okay, baby", he mumbled into his ear. "Go to sleep. You need rest." Rye nodded and pressed his face more into Andy's chest, absorbing his calming scent.

The last weeks have been hard for Rye and Andy. Their days consisted of going to work, then coming back home in the evening, just to cuddle up together on the sofa. Every once in a while Rye would start crying, crawling into his boyfriend's arms, seeking for comfort. To say the blonde didn't sorry about the younger would be a lie. In fact, he was really worried and tried distracting the brunette as good as possible.

One evening, they were cuddling in bed before going to sleep, when Andy thought about something. "Rye?", he asked and when he heard humming he continued. "I just thought, you know, since it isn't working", he looked up at his boyfriend carefully, seeing tears well up in his eyes. "We could always adopt. If you want to, I can go and inform myself tomorrow after work." A smile grew on the brown eyed's face, his cheeks turning a beautiful pink. "I'd like that, actually.", he mumbled. Andy smiled and leaned forward. He pressed a gentle kiss to Rye's lips. "I love you", he whispered and he got a sleepy 'I live you too' back.

The next day when Andy came home, he was immediately stormed over by Rye. "Have you talked to them? What did they say? Can we-", he rushed out but the blonde interrupted him. "Shh, babe, come on let's sit down on the couch. I have some news."
The two lovers sat down and Andy pulled his boyfriend close. Grinning at him. "They said..", he started slowly watching for Rye's reaction. "Well, they were happy that we're interested and they said if we're up to it, they'd like to come see our flat and such. You know, just to know how we're living."
"Really?", The brunette gasped. One hand over his mouth. He fell into Andy's open arms, hugging him tightly. "That's so great"

Suddenly the younger started sobbing again, this time out of joy, though. "Andy, that's.. that's-. We're gonna ve parents, and.. and" Then he jumped up, realising something: "Shit, come on, we have to clean and tidy. It hast to look perfect when they come.." He ran into their bedroom and started picking up clothes and different things. Andy followed him slowly, laughing. "Babe, it's clean anyway, relax."

"Okay, we'll call you when we have some information or find someone who'll fit you.", the woman said as she exited the couple's flat. The two men nodded and said goodbye as they closed the door behind her. As soon as the door fell into the lock, Rye started jumping up and down, his eyes glowing with excitement. The older blonde took him into his arms and pressed his face into the taller's chest. "I was so nervous", he said, releasing a breath. "Yeah me too, but it all went well.", Rye answered.
That evening the two cuddled up in bed under a big fuzzy blanket after eating dinner. Not thinking about sleep though, they were both way too fidgety. The brunette's phone was placed on the nightstand, ringtone on full blast, just in case the adoption center calls. And with that, the waiting began.

•••••

Andy and Rye waited for almost half a year, when they finally got that awaited call. Of course they had contact in between to get some news and such, but they never got confirmed for an adoption.

It was six in the evening, the older man just came home from work and was now cooking dinner. The brunette was watching him doing that, leaning against the kitchen counter, staring at Andy's butt. And then, well suddenly a call on Rye's phone.
"Hello?", he asked as he picked up. Andy turned around to look at him. Suddenly the brunette's look changed into an excited, happy one. His boyfriend's face turned confused and questioning.

"It's the adoption center", Rye whispered and turned his phone on speaker. "He's now listening too.", he said into the phone, to the woman who seemingly asked for them both. "Okay, so.. Mr. Beaumont, Mr. Fowler, I have good news for you." Rye and Andy exchanged excited looks and the blonde asked for her to go on. "We have just recently taken in a young boy. His name is Noah and he is four years old. We've compared your profiles and it seems that he would fit you very well."
The two lovers gasped. So in shock they couldn't even manage talking. "Really...?", the older let out after just a few seconds. "Yes. If you like, you can come see him today or tomorrow.", she answered. "Of course we want to! We'll be there in an hour.", Rye answered.

They quickly ate, changed into some decent clothes, tidied up a bit and then jumped into the car to drive to the center. The closer they got, the more jittery the two men got.
Finally they arrived and went into the house. They greeted the receptionist while walking up to the counter. "Good evening, we're here to see Noah. We got a call..", Andy said, smiling politely. "Ahh, yes of course.", the man answered. "Please follow me."

He led the couple into a room full of small children. They were playing, with each other or alone, some of them were reading. It was a fun and calm atmosphere. The men told them to wait at the door and went inside. Only minutes later he came back with a young boy. He was rather small and had dark blonde hair. His eyes shone a bright bluish grey. He smiled shyly at the two adults.
"Mr. Beaumont, Mr. Fowler this is Noah."
