Rent-A-Kid (Nemi)

Ground Rules

After brunch Nick and I made our way back to our posh amartment. Once we walked in, I went straight to the couch, and plopped right down. I grabbed the business card out of my purse to look at one last time.

" Nick don't you ever wonder if we are cut out to be parents? I mean think about it, wouldn't you like to experience parenting before actually being parents. What if we hate it. I mean it's like the whole concept of 'living together before getting married'. You want to see if you work well together. It's also like 'having sex before you're married'. Sometimes you just gotta test the waters, to see if you and your significant other are in sync.

"Demi..all kids are different. These kids at the Orphanage wouldn't even really be a good example of how our kids would really be because our kids would grow up with us, and form bonds with us," he said while sitting down next to me and pulling me into a warm embrace.

"I know, baby, but don't you ever wonder if you would be any good? What if we realize that our busy schedules just don't fit well with having a family? Wouldn't you like to know these things before actually having a little one on the way?" I asked while looking up at him.

Nick just sat there with his arm alongside the back of the sofa while leaning his head back. I could tell he was thinking. I just stared up at him and kissed his cheek. "Just think about it, baby. It could help us feel better about it in the long run. That's all I am saying. I'll drop it now." I said while leaning up and kissing his neck this time. This made him stir. He picked up his head and passionately kissed me, sending chills through my body.

The rest of the day consisted of Nick and I just sitting around, watching movies all day. We wanted to make sure that we had some good rest because we were both going to be touring a lot these next couple weeks. Nick and I signed up to do a mini North American tour. Our fans have been begging us ever since we got together, and now with Nick's new album release, we thought it would be a good idea.

The day went fast and soon we were getting ready for bed. I was in the bathroom, finishing my nightly routine when I noticed that Nick was over there with his arms behind his head staring up at the ceiling. "Whatcha thinking about over there, love?" I said while peaking my head from behind the wall.

"Nothing really. Just thinking about how I am waiting for my sexy, hot fiancé to come over here and cuddle the shit out of me," he said while laughing. I just busted up laughing because Nick was so cute whenever he tried to sound sexy while cussing. I quickly finished brushing my teeth, and made my way over to the bed. While I was pulling the covers back and getting ready to get in, Nick looked as if he wanted to speak.

"You know, I've been thinking. I guess it would be kind of cool to have a little kid running around here. I mean, it would be just like babysitting, right? We could figure out if we like it and go from there," he said while moving his head towards me, and quickly moving it back before continuing once more. " I mean, I would only do it on four conditions," He said while looking at me with his famous smile.

"And what might those be?" I asked curiously.

"First of all, I only want to have one kid. Secondly, I want that one kid, to be a boy. I do not want to have any little girls running around here crying. I already have you to deal with," he said while laughing. I just shook my head. "Lastly, I would only agree to having him for a maximum of two weeks." He said before I quickly jumped in.

"Two weeks! Nick thats practically noth-,"

"Two weeks. Oh, and, you cannot, and I mean cannot, under any circumstances, ask for a longer time frame, or ask me if we can adopt him. If you can agree to those four things, then I will agree to this insane idea of actually renting a kid," he said looking at me with a curious face.
