"So the basis of the arrangement is I will pay for your last three years of medical school, pay you a generous monthly stipend and help you get into UW's internal residency program in exchange for-"

"Sex?" H...

"You're on time that's good," I nodded as I walked up to Brandt out side of the DNA testing center.
"Uncle Brandt!!" Jayce-Lynn screeched running up to him, engulfing his calves in a hug. She's not that tall, his calves are all she can reach.
"Hey Bug!" Brandt used his free arm to pick her up, kissing her cheek.
Jayce pointed to the box that's in his other hand, "What's that?"
"That's for MiMi." He explained to her, handing the box to me.
I glanced up at him before hesitantly opening the lid. At the top of it were the words I'm Sorry and the box contained a bunch of donuts. Donuts are by far one of my all time favorite desserts. It's donuts and creme brûlée, the latter doesn't really transport well.
I appreciate the gesture, I really do but what Brandt did was super fucked up. "You know if you were really sorry, you would've gotten a maple bar."
"That one," He pointed to a donut in the corner of the box. "Is maple bacon. They were out of maple bars so I got the next best thing. I also got you this.." Brandt pulled an envelope out of his back pocket handing it to me.
I closed the box of donuts so I could open the envelope, but not before handing a donut with sprinkles to Jayce who was not so subtly eyeing my gift.
She's lucky I love her.
I opened the envelope to find a gift receipt for a luxury spa day enclosed inside. To say I was shocked by the gesture would be an understatement... "What is this?"
"I figured that no matter what you decide, you'd probably need to take a mental health day.. Relieve some stress."
I could feel tears welling up in my eyes. Fuck, I really am pregnant. I'm not an emotional person at all. "This is one of the sweetest things that anyone has ever done for me." I wiped my eyes before any tears could fall.
"I wanted you to know how sorry I was. I just wanted my best friend back." He smiled sheepishly as I wrapped my arm around him, squeezing his side tight.
"I love you, even though you're kind of stupid." Maybe it was the hormones, but I feel like his apology is sincere and honestly, it's hard to stay made at someone as adorable as Brandt. It's not his fault that he's kind of stupid. I blame genetics. His brother is kind of stupid too.
"I love you too, bambina." He pecked my forehead gently before pulling away from our hug. "You ready to do this?"
"Uhh.. hold on." I dug Jayce's iPad equipped with a pink protective case and headphones out of my purse. "Here mamas, watch cartoons while Brandt and have our appointment." I handed her the iPad and put the wireless headphones on her head for her.
