WHO: Lucas Cortez and Ichabod Crane WHAT: A chance meeting WHEN: Earlier today WHERE: Little People's Boutique WARNINGS: TBD STATUS: Closed/Ongoing
Lucas was starting to get very excited about the fact that Paige was expecting. And twins, at that! It was hard not to let the fear creep in - the fear that, like last time, they'd lose them - but he was trying to push those fears far to the back of his mind. So far, everything was going perfectly, and the further along Paige's pregnancy advanced, the better chance there was of delivering two beautiful, healthy babies.
They didn't know the babies' genders yet, but Lucas was at Little People's Boutique today anyway. He didn't believe in over-gendering his children, and saw no reason why an adorable dinosaur onesie wouldn't be equally appropriate for a girl or a boy.
Taking his purchases to the front to pay, he noticed a man around his age browsing as well. As they were the only two men in the shop, Lucas felt a certain solidarity with him, and approached him.
"Hello," he said with a nod. "When are you expecting?" After all, why would he be in the store if he wasn't?
