Chapter 18

Off to the Hospital to see the Doctor

Today was the day Sanda, Reid and Luke were going to see the Specialists, to see if everything would be OK to go ahead with their plans for Sanda to carry Reid's baby. Sanda was nervous so were Reid, and Luke but they all were trying to act like everything was normal. They got to the hospital, and went up to Dr. Steele's office, and filled out papers, and were waiting to be called in. Dr. Steele's called them in, and was going over the procedure, and explained how expensive it was. Reid said it was no problem, he was going to pay for everything not covered. He said he would give Reid, and Sanda a full exam, and take blood, and urine tests. If all the tests come back OK, they could start the procedure as soon as possible. Sanda went into the Exam room first, she changed into her gown, and waited for Dr. Steele's. He came in he talked to her alone, than finished the exam, and took blood, and she went to washroom, and did the urine tests. He touched her shoulder, and said she was a brave young lady, and he asked her again if she was sure this was something she could do? She was never more scared, and she knew giving the baby away would hurt, but she could do it for Reid, and Luke. They deserved this, and she was going to give them this gift from her heart. She knew she would be part of the babies life, and that would be enough for her.

She went to the waiting room, and sat with Luke waiting for Reid. He came out, and knelt down, "You OK Angel"?

"Yeah I hate hospitals, but the worst is over we have to wait for the results now"

"Yeah but remember if everything is OK, it will be a hard 9 months"

"I want to do this, I won't lie I'm scared, but you both deserve this. I love you both, and I want to bring Reid's child into the world"

"My child too, I might not be the Daddy but he or she will be mine too"

"Of course Luke I didn't mean that"

"I know Sanda, I just feel bad that you both are in this together, I'm so proud of you both"

"We are in this together the three of us Luke". Sanda smiled as Reid put his hands out to Luke, and Sanda. They took them, and the three of them left the office. They walked to the elevator, Reid whispered, "Who is up for Mexican food, I'm starving"?

"Mexican my favourite lets go". Sanda said

"No alcohol you two"? Luke said

Reid smiled, "Don't start already but don't worry we won't"

Sanda smiled, "Oh Luke is going to make sure we eat, and drink, and exercise properly"

"Yeah he will, and make sure we take our vitamins, and go to bed on time"

"Stop you both are making me look bad"

Sanda smiled, "We love you Luke, just joking around"

Luke hugged her, as the three of them got off the elevator, and left the hospital.

[Sanda]

Great update Jessie. Sanda is so sweet and brave to go through nine months of pregnancy and carry her and Reid's baby and then give it up to Reid and Luke. Sanda, Reid, and Luke are cute and adorable together as friends. I love when Reid calls me angel in stories.

Chapter 19

Sanda, Reid, and Luke got home, Sanda went upstairs to get into her pajamas, as Luke and Reid went into the living room to watch the end of the game. Sanda came down, and walked over sitting on the couch beside them.

"Hey Angel if you want to go to bed we would understand"

"You want some alone time"

"No we are worried about you by this time tomorrow we may get the OK to go through with this are you really ready for this"?

"I really am, I want to give you both this gift"

Reid hugged her, and whispered, 'We love you Angel"

She smiled as they watched some TV, and than they went upstairs to get some sleep. Sanda hugged them both, and they gave her a kiss on her cheek, and said they would see her in the morning. Sanda went in her room, and shut the door, and walked over pulling the bedspread down, and turned the light out, and got in bed. She was laying there thinking about the future, and wondered what giving birth would be like. She knew it would be scary but having Luke, and Reid there beside her she knew she would be OK. Sanda was tossing, and turning she couldn't sleep. She finally got up putting her housecoat on, and decided to go down, and get herself a cup of tea. She walked downstairs, and got to the kitchen, and jumped seeing Reid sitting at the kitchen table holding a cup of coffee.

"Reid I thought you went to sleep"?

"I tried but why are you up Angel, you need your rest"

"You do to Reid do you have to work tomorrow"?

"I have the day off but I'm on call, I'm just excited, and scared."

"Scared you want a child don't you"?

"More than anything but I'm scared it would hurt you, and I would never hurt you Sanda you mean to much to me"

"I love you Reid, and I offered, I will be part of this family. You , and Luke would make wonderful parents, and I will be his God Parent if you want me to have that title"

"Of course we already thought of that, but you know this is going to be hard on you Sanda"

"A child Reid that is the most precious thing I could do for you both. I want to do this for you , and Luke, and I will not have any regrets. I'm sure I will be scared when I give birth but you will get me through it right"

"You know I will be there every step of the way. I know we should eat healthy, but ice cream is considered healthy in my book". Reid said, and Sanda giggled, and whispered, "It is in my book too". Reid got up grabbing 2 bowls, and Sanda went to the fridge, and got out the ice cream, and Reid grabbed the chocolate syrup. They sat down , Reid scooped out the ice cream as Sanda poured the syrup. They were eating, and laughing when Luke walked in rubbing his eyes.

'I should have known you two would be down here eating ice cream"

"Oh we couldn't sleep Luke"

"Well can I have some too". Sanda smiled getting up to grab him a bowl, and Reid scooped up the ice cream handing the bowl to Luke.

"Oh man I can't have chocolate syrup"

Sanda smiled, "Oh look who loves sweets as much as us"

"No if I can't change you , I my as well join you both with your unhealthy eating habits. It will change when you get pregnant Sanda"

Reid winked at Sanda, and she knew they would have their late night pig out sessions, and she knew Luke would understand, because he couldn't change Reid, and he was starting to see Sanda was a lot like Reid, but he did worry about them, but he knew Reid would do whatever it takes to keep Sanda safe, and healthy.

Chapter 20

The next day.

Sanda was at home alone watching Young, and the Restless when the phone rang. She grabbed it, and said "Hello"

"Sanda it is Dr. Steele"

"Dr. Steele"

"Yes we got all the results back, and everything looks well, so I wanted to call you, and tell you we can start the procedures anytime you like"

"I will discuss it with Luke , and Reid"

"Sanda you know this is your decision are you sure this is what you want to do"?

"This is my idea they would be wonderful parents, and I want to do this for them, I'm not saying I'm not scared, but I am fine with going through this for them"

"OK you or Reid can call me with your plans, we can get started soon, but remember sometimes it takes a few times before it takes"

"I know Reid explained that to me so did you"

"Oh right I keep forgetting Reid is a Surgeon"

"I will call you soon I'm sure we will get started real soon"

"Take care Sanda, and what your doing for Luke, and Reid is so amazing"

"They are amazing, and they deserve it but thank you for saying that"

"Goodbye see you soon Sanda, I want you to get lots of rest OK"

"OK" Sanda hung up, and laid back, and part of her wanted to cry, she was happy, and scared, and so excited to tell Luke and Reid. She grabbed the phone, and decided to call Reid first, and he answered.

"Reid Oliver"

"Reid it is me Sanda"

"Hey Angel something wrong"?

"No something good happened Reid, Dr. Steele called, and said everything is OK we can start the procedure real soon"

"Wow that was fast"

"You OK Reid"

"Yes I'm fine how about you Sanda, I know you must be scared"

"Yes but I'm excited, I want to do this, and I want to do it now. I think waiting will be hard on all of us"

"I will call Luke we will bring supper home, and we will talk about it "

"OK but no pizza please"

"Oh Angel"

"Can we have Chinese food pretty please"

"OK you like the noodles, rice, and pepper steak right"?

"Yes, and spring rolls"

"You got it, we will be home around 6, I bet you are watching Young, and the Restless right"?

"I was but it will be over soon now I'm going to watch Dr. Phil"

"Oh man he annoys me"

"He tells it like it is just like you Reid so admit it"

"You know me Angel, see you soon, love you"

"Love you too should I call Luke"?

"I will tell him he is picking me up at work in 1/2 hour, you go watch your shows, and again thanks for everything Sanda"

"Reid I don't expect a thanks, I just expect to be part of this family, I think you, and Luke will be the best Parents"

"I never thought I would be a parent but now I'm so excited"

Sanda smiled as Reid said goodbye, she hung up, and sat on the couch looking at the TV but she couldn't concentrate on the show, all she could think about was she was going to be pregnant soon, and she tried to picture what it would be like in her head.

[Sanda]

Chapter 21

Luke was waiting for Reid outside the hospital Reid came out he saw Luke he smiled as he walked over, and opened the passenger side door, and got in.

"Hey Sexy how was your day"?

"Long Mona Cross is driving me insane I swear she hates me, and I almost lost it today"

"Reid I told you to stop letting that woman get to you."

"I have some good news Sanda called me, and she said everything is ok we can start the procedure as soon as we are ready"

Luke smiled, "Oh my God this is really going to happen isn't it Reid"

"Yes Sanda is amazing doing this for us but I'm worried that she will regret it , and I would die if she did"

"You know she wants to do this for us Reid she loves you, and she knows how important this is for us. She is going to be in our lives she will be with our baby every step of the way, and our baby will be so lucky to have the three of us"

Reid smiled, "I love you Richie Rich"

"What should we pick up for dinner"?

"Chinese food Sanda called she wants all her favourites"

"Thank God we are not having pizza again"

"Sanda said the exact same thing I thought you guys love pizza"?

"We do but just not 3 or 4 times a week"

"I love it sue me"

Luke smiled, "I love you so I want you around for a long time so starting tomorrow the three of us are going to start eating more healthy"

"Oh Luke"

"Oh Reid listen to your man I know what is best for you"

Reid laughed, "Lets go get Chinese food but how about we grab a Ice cream cake for dessert since tomorrow my life is going to change"

"Reid stop it healthy does not mean boring"

They drove up to their favourite Chinese Restaurant Reid ran in, and ordered all their favourites. He paid, and left the restaurant, and got in the car, Luke drove over to Dairy Queen. Reid went in, and came out with his favourite flavour he was happy Luke and Sanda loved it too. They drove home, and got out of the car, and grabbed the food, and went inside. Sanda was sitting on the couch she got up when they came inside. She ran over grabbing the Chinese food as she walked to the kitchen, and was pulling the items out of the bag. She was starving, and everything smelled so amazing. Luke grabbed the plates as Reid put the cake in the freezer. He grabbed the sodas, they all sat down, and were eating, and talking.

Sanda smiled, "So when do you want to start the procedure I was thinking as soon as possible. I think waiting will only make it hard on all of us"

"Sanda we love you so much, and we can never repay you for giving us this special gift. We just need to know you really are ready for this"

"I am ready I would never say I was if I wasn't. I want to give you this precious gift. You both are so amazing, and so kind, and caring, and I know you  both will be wonderful Parents. I know I will be part of the babies life, but I know this will be your child"

"You will be a big part of our Daughter or Son's life, and one day we will explain to them what a special thing you did for us"

Sanda smiled as Reid reached over giving her hand a squeeze. Luke reached over holding both their hands as they said they were going to do this together as a family, and they knew everything would be just fine as long as they all had each other.

[Sanda]

Cute update Jessie. Reid, Luke, and Sanda are so cute and adorable together. I love that the three of them are a family and that are going to continue to be a family after Sanda has the baby for them and that Reid and Luke are going to let Sanda be apart of the baby life after it is born and she hands it over to Reid and Luke. I hope and pray that I don't have too much a hard time when hand the baby over to Reid and Luke after I give birth.

[melinda]

this is really good. I hope that Reid and Luke will be able to give Sanda a chance to bond with the baby once it's born. so nice of Sanda to do that, this is really interesting!

Chapter 22

Reid and Luke grabbed some plates while Sanda was opening the cartons of Chinese food.

"Oh my God I love Chinese food, and this smells amazing"

Reid grabbed a egg roll and took a bite making Luke smack his butt.

"Reid can you wait until we all are seated before grabbing food and stuffing your mouth"

"Ouch you smacked my butt I am starving so I couldn't wait"

Sanda laughed as she put food on Reid's plate, and he sat down and said thank you. Luke and Sanda got their food as they sat down, and they started to eat. They were talking and enjoying dinner. Sanda finally spoke up and asked when were they going to get the procedure started?

"Well we could start tomorrow if you are ready" Reid said

"I think we should start tomorrow the waiting is just making us all nervous. I know how much you both want a child, and I would love to be the one that gives you the gift of a child you both can raise as your own. I know you both will be wonderful parents, and your daughter or Son would have such a wonderful life. I know some people will not understand but who cares. All that matters is this is what we want and bringing a child into our lives would be so amazing. I promise you I can handle this, and I will have no regrets. I love both of you so much and I know you love me too"

Reid and Luke both had tears in their eyes. They couldn't be happier knowing Sanda was willing to do this for them just proved how much she loved them. They treasured their friendship with her and they know she will always be a big part of their lives, and their babies too.

"Reid, Luke you want this too don't you" ? Sanda said and Reid reached over holding her hand and said, "We are so grateful to have someone like you in our lives you truly are an Angel" Sanda started to cry as Reid took her in his arms, and held her close as Luke wiped tears from his eyes.
