A new life is a The Secret Show fanfic written by Eszie. It revolves around Victor and Anita unexpectedly becoming parents after a particularly intense kinda-sorta date.
The story was first published in 2011 and then completed almost a year later.
This fanfic uses the tropes:
- Friends with Benefits: Victor and Anita conceive a child while partaking in something like this.
- Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Played straight.
- Kid Fic: The basic premise is the central couple getting ready to become parents after an intense platonic date.
- Official Couple: It takes a while, but Victor and Anita are eventually established as one.
- Original Character: Victor's sister Melissa and Anita's father Arthur are just a couple of these to show up in the fanfic.
- Premature Birth Drama: Played with. Anita is fairly certain Timothy was born earlier than he was supposed to, but the doctors assure her that the baby is full-term.
- Relationship Upgrade: Things end up becoming more romantic for Victor and Anita as the pregnancy progresses.
- Slice of Life: Not much really happens besides typical everyday things.
