“Family is about the people in your life, not about the location. Yes, we’d move to be with you. You love football. It’s who you are, and having kids won’t hold your career back. Kids mean you’re giving me a little piece of yourself to love when you’re away.”
He shook his head and smiled at me.
“You are the best thing that has ever happened to me, June, and I’ll be honest. I never saw myself with kids. But, with you, I can. One, though…maybe two if the first one’s a girl who looks like you.”
I smiled at him and reached out to set my hand on his leg, a familiar driving routine for us. I enjoyed touching, and he liked to be touched.
He threaded his fingers through mine.
“I’m sorry this weekend was a disappointment,” he said sincerely. “I do want to marry you, June, and I promise not to make you wait ten years. Can we wait until after I’m signed?”
“I think I have enough patience for that.”
“And a kid after a few years?”
“Just so you don’t make me wait too long for the ring.”
“You got it, babe.”
