All That Matters - Comments

Great update! I really love this story! Hope you update soon!

write faster please? i love these two

Oh and btw can there be a baby Crosby in the next few chapters, I think the transition would be interesting to read

So good!!!

Well, Siddo, you need to actually talk to your wife about things that concern her. Like house guests. Or your faither. And you need to not agree to things that will affect her without running it past her. Like house guests. Or your father. I love my ILs and my SO and they me but heads would roll if they descended without permission and advance warning or if my husband agreed to a stay by them without consulting me.

Like how you keep working in the awkwardness with Troy. Glad he went to see Taylor..step in the right direction.

god i love this story so much!!! even though i love the flyers and the philly comments made me laugh bc they are so true, i love this story!!! they are just so good together! can't wait for more :)

I Iove seeing Sid and Wyn stand up against Troy like dude seriously they only been married for two months let them enjoy it tht moment together jeez anyhoo cant wait to read more update as soon as u can :)

This story is perfect. Great to see Wyn stand up to Troy, and Sid is being tougher with him too, which is good to see.

Exquisite writing such as yours takes time. This is such a wonderful story!!! Love Sid and Wyn together.

Another fantastic chapter. It's great to see Wyn stand up for her self against Troy...and good to see that their conversations seemed to get through to him, at least a little. I'm feeling a sense of premonition about celebration sex and a week of antibiotics, though. Baby Crosby, maybe?

@ Boze
No. Thank you!

@ annab3
No need to be sorry in missing the romance between them. They'll settle in and find their stride again, but they say the first year of marriage is the hardest. :)

After reading this chapter I cant wait for them to have kids..sorry to say this but i do missed the romance between them like more Flirting please:))

Love it, can't wait to read more update as soon as u can :)

I'm seeing a beautiful relationship on the horizon between Pkane and Nicole. He's blond and marginally attractive!

Honestly, I'd rate the inability to go out with friends well under something they didn't bring up: a baby's ability to throw all of your routines out the window. And that's something that Sid needs to realize: the baby will not exist only when it's convenient for him and his wife will not be the only one taking care of the baby when it's inconvenient for him. I.e. all his superstitions. A baby gives absolutely no shits that he needs to do this series of things at these times in this order. Babies are not for trotting out a couple hours a day pretty and well-fed and napped. They are fluids from all orifices, practically at any time. They are loud and even when they're not (and sometimes it's the quiet you dread), they still are distracting. It's hard work. And yes, they can afford help and I certainly would hope they'd avail themselves of a housekeeper and at the very least a mother's helper if not a part or full-time nanny. Because babies are hard. And toddlers are hard. And older children are hard. Just in different ways. And working parents are crazy busy. Or maybe just crazy.

I am, however with Bronwyn: joking about replacing her birth control pills is absolutely not funny. Many women are coerced into staying with men through bonds of children and possibly poverty and it's abuse, pure and simple. Some men trap women by sabotaging birth control; I've known several. One who had multiple children and did not want any more. Her husband was afraid that she was going to leave him (for good reason) and poked holes in the condoms. And now she's stuck with a no good deadbeat husband and another child she can't really afford; she was the only one working before that and it's put incredible stress on her and her children. She pretty much doesn't have the energy, the emotional capacity, or the money to leave him. Entrapment is shitty, it's abusive, and it's scary. It's like rape jokes; simply not funny and makes light of a serious problem.

And you're never ready for kids. But at some point, sometimes the fear is less than the desire. If you think you're ready, be prepared for a baby (and even the pregnancy) to kick your ass! Babies: not for the faint of heart! IME. YMMV.

Has the media and the fanemies figured out who Sid's wife is?

Wonderful! Terrific! Fantastic! Thank you!

Adorable. I love that you used babysitting Estelle as a segue into their discussion about children.

i want them to have a baby sooooooo bad! like so bad. haha but that was a great update!!!

Adorable...they will do a great job when the time comes
