Parent hood

"Grease doens't capture that crispy goodness of bacon." Date, heck it seemed silly to call it a date when they been intimately entwined. So much for waiting until after the third date, then again nothing in her life was normal. Why should this be any different.

"Family?" she asked leaving it rather open. Odd that he knew so much of her medical history and therefore her life history, and she knew so little about him.

The food was ready to be served as David looked back at Maxine when asked about his family. He went to get two plates for them as he began to speak. "Well like I said before, I was raised by my mom. I didn't really know my dad.... I mean I knew him but.... he left when I very young. I have two older sisters so I'm the youngest of 3 kids. Not sure what else to say, we lived in a house. When I graduated high school I began to learn to be a doctor. There's nothing like helping people in need."

David took their plates to the table as he motioned Maxine to follow him, being ever the gentlemen as pulled out her chair for her. "What about you" he said "I mean I know you medical history, but I want to know you. How were things like growing up for you?"

"Only child, my parents were very much in love. Dad died when I was about six, mom was devastated, she started drinking and it finally killed her just before I finished high school." She shrugged, "I managed to graduate, insurance paid off the cars and what was left on the house, and I managed a semester of college before I needed to either sell the house, or get a job. So of course I sold it all off, and moved and went into adult films."

Maxine shrugged again, "I suppose that's why I want to have children, to make the happy family I never had." She took a bite, "I'm just like everybody else, looking for what I never had."

"That or trying to get back what we used to have." replied David as he continues to eat, his hand over hers as he saw a small look of sadness in her eyes. "Having a family is a big step, let alone a happy one." he admitted "It's good to be with someone who loves you for who you are." While Maxine and him had already had sex, he wondered if she even saw him as someone she could have a baby with.

David figured he could at least insist on being that person "Maxine, when you first walk into my office, I thought you were the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Yet I could see a bit of sadness in you, a sense of longing. I've felt that way for a long time aw well. When I look at you, I don't see your past career. I see Maxine, an amazing woman who wanted to be truly loved by that special someone and I'd really like to be that someone."

She smiled, that soft sad filled with regret smile. "Yeah well I'm as prepared as I'm going to be, I have a family home, in a good school district, with enough money to support having a couple of kids. I've read the books, volunteered with kids, even saw my doctor."

She smiled, "and other than some fertility issues I'm in good health, so no worries about running around after a toddler." Maxine shrugged, it was tough for her to consider a love at first sight thing. Lust, well she knew that side all too well, and she still wondered just how long he could possible be interested in her, and whether having a child with him, would be the best idea, sure it would bring them together for the rest of their lives, but would it be happily ever after? she had seen enough broken relationships up close and personal. Somehow single parenthood had seemed simpler even with all the complications.

"Are you asking me out on another date?" she side stepped the broader implications. This just felt so relaxed, that she didn't want to jinx it with being serious just yet.

"I would like that very much" he replied as he finished his meal "You're not the only person who's been saving for a family. I've even thought about adoption." he looked down as he spoke that as he had never admitted that truth to anyone. "Granted you could do artificial insemination, but I've always thought the best way is the natural way. Two people who care about one another sharing their bodies." His eyes went back up to Maxine as his hand fell onto her's "You're someone I can see myself holding while we sit on the couch or cuddling with while we're in bed. But I can also see us expressing ourselves in more sexual ways, not to conceive but because we love one another. I'd like to be that guy you can have passionate sex with and love at the same. And maybe... just maybe I can help fulfill that doctor fantasy for you."
