Present Day
Mads woke up and slowly opened his eyes to check up on his wife. But she wasn't there. He quickly stood up and put on his sweatshirt and searched for Leia. She left her cell phone on the bed side table.
God. Where is she? He thought to himself.
He searched the kitchen, the bathroom, their dressing room, the living room, the basement and even went outside. But she was nowhere to be found.
He felt anxious and decided to go out for a smoke in their bedroom's balcony. He stepped out and saw her sitting on the floor with a cup of coffee and a cigarette in between her fingers.
"Jeez! Leia, you scared the shit out of me. I thought you'd gone off. Don't do that to me again." Mads said to Leia.
She didn't look up, she just continued taking puffs off of her cigarette and a sip of her coffee. She obviously wasn't in the mood.
Mads sat beside her on the floor and lit a cigarette. It took a while before he could open his mouth to say something.
"Hey, look at me." He said.
Leia quickly followed what Mads said.
"I know you're hurting. I am too. But we'll keep on trying until we make one. I won't give up." He promised her.
"It's very hard on me, Mads. I mean, you have kids from your previous relationships and now here I am and I can't give you one. We've been trying and trying but I couldn't give you one." Leia managed to say before bursting into tears.
"Hey, hey, honey, don't." Mads said caressing her shoulders in attempt to calming his wife.
"Maybe I won't be able to give you one." She said.
Mads was stunned. He loves kids, he's great with them. He visits Harry every week and Natalia often visits them in their house. He just wants to have a baby with Leia and lots of them. He got really upset when he found out about the chances of them having a baby but it was more frustrating to hear Leia give up.
"Don't say that." He said.
"It's true!!!! 1 out of 1000 chances, Mads!!! It's close to impossible!" She said.
"There's still a chance but you're making it seem like there's none!" He was starting to get angry.
"Maybe you should find someone else to make a baby with!!!!" She said out of anxiety.
Mads got mad. He was so frustrated with her lack of faith and hope. He loves her that's for sure but sometimes he just can't take her negativity anymore.
"Yeah, maybe I should." He said then he stood up and walked out.
Leia was left alone in the corner of their balcony, with a half empty cup of coffee and two cigarette butts.

"I can't believe her!" Mads shouted to Daniel from across the room where Daniel was pouring scotch over two glasses.
"If I was her, I'd be devastated too." Daniel said, defending Leia.
"I know but it's not just her fight. I'm in it also just as much as her." He said.
"But she's the one who's incapable, man, not you. That's why she's frustrated. It sucks to know that you can't give something that's as important as a baby to your husband and make a family. That really sucks." Daniel said and handed Mads his glass.
Mads took a huge gulp of his scotch and thought about things. He was so mad earlier that he stormed out and went straight to Daniel's home.
"Maybe you're right, I am being inconsiderate." Mads said.
"Let it sit out, man. Think things through." Daniel said as he finishes his drink.
"Well, I better go. Thanks for the advice and the drink." Mads hurriedly went out of Daniel's home and quickly went off.
-----
He got home to see Leia cleaning up the dishes. He threw his keys and went straight to her. He hugged her from the back, he felt that she was hesitant.
"I didn't mean what I said, earlier." Mads said as he kisses her neck.
"I know." She admitted and continued with cleaning up dirty dishes.
"Just don't give up on me, We will have a baby." He said to her as he gathers her hair and put it on one side so that he could see her neck more clearly.
She faced him and kissed him. Leia apologized and they made up.

Mads' phone was ringing.
"Hello?" He asked as he continued to kiss Leia.
"This is Dr. Langdon from Mount Sinai, Ms. Caroline Dhavernas had a car accident and you were on her emergency numbers." The doctor said.
Mads stopped and looked at Leia.
"I'm on my way." He said and dropped the call.
"What is it?" Leia asked holding Mads' hands.
"Caroline." He said.
Leia felt a tiny bit of jealousy.
"She was in a car accident." He continued.
Leia was in shock. She quickly grabbed the car keys and handed it to Mads and they rushed into the hospital hoping that Caroline is okay.
