One-Shot Stories

26-year-old Tyler Seguin and his 24-year-old wife Brooke had everything they could ever want. Tyler is a professional hockey player and alternate captain for the Dallas Stars and Brooke is a part-time host of a morning daily news show in the area. They made their home in a gorgeous 6-bedroom mansion in the suburbs, but still missed one thing. The couple, married for five years, desperately wanted a baby, and Brooke has been severely struggling to conceive.

Tyler's best friend and teammate, Jamie Benn, invited him and Brooke, as well as other of the Stars' players and wives over for a night of takeout food and baseball since it was the middle of the offseason for the team. Tyler originally did not want to go because he was frustrated over Brooke's inability to conceive the last time they had sex, but she convinced him a night out would be good.

At Jamie's house, Brooke and Jamie's wife Katie were in the kitchen making drinks. Brooke sighed and looked at her husband, "My poor baby."

"Are you still struggling with your fertility?" Katie asked.

Brooke nodded, "Still nothing. We want a baby so bad."

Jamie and Tyler were in the living room, having a guys chat. Tyler was in the middle of talking when he noticed Jamie pick up his and Katie's six-week-old son Jackson, "Ugh, man. I really want one of those so bad."

Jamie rocked his son, "What? A kid?"

"Yeah. Brooke is struggling so badly with her fertility. We can't conceive at all. I'm a mess, man," Tyler said.

"You can't keep trying, though. Let it happen. Katie struggled too. We finally tried having sex once more, and nothing happened...until a little miracle. Just believe, dude. It will happen," Jamie reassured.

Tyler looked back at his wife in the kitchen. He knew she would make an amazing mommy and really wanted it to happen as soon as it could. A few minutes later, Jason Spezza and his wife Jennifer came over with their four daughters. It was really hurting Tyler to see his teammates as dads, yet he wasn't one yet. He got up and walked to Brooke, "Hi babe."

Brooke looked up and kissed her husband's cheek, "Hey you. What's wrong?"

Tyler pulled his wife into the dining room to talk privately, "This is killing me. I hate seeing all these kids. We've been married five years and nothing yet. I want a baby right now. We need to have one."

"Baby, we will. I know you're frustrated, but we will have a baby when the time is right," Brooke replied.

"But I want one now. This waiting game is too much for me," Tyler whined.

Katie stepped over, "Guys, if you need to talk with little noise, head to our room upstairs. We'll be here if you need us."

Brooke and Tyler went to Katie and Jamie's guest room. Brooke knew how frustrated her husband was, but she was more relaxed than him. She wanted a baby too, but had to trust timing and knew it would all work out. Brooke closed the door and proceeded to speak when her husband deeply kissed her, "Holy shit."

"Just have sex with me. Make love to me. I need it," Tyler panted.

"Here!? In your best friend's house!?" Brooke gasped.

Tyler nodded his head super fast, "We're definitely getting a baby out of this."

How was Tyler SO confident that this time would work!?
