“Okay,” Atlas said. “Any location in mind? Any places?”

I shook my head.

He touched my chin and nodded. “Then I guess we have to figure it out together.”

“Right. Together.”

He lowered his mouth down to mine.

A gentle kiss.

He pulled away.

“Hey,” I said. “Think you can score a goal tonight for her? She said she wanted you to.”

“No pressure on me, huh?” Atlas asked.

“That’s what your daughter wants.”

Atlas grinned.

My body melted.

“Whatever my girls want… they get.”

I watchedthe hockey game on my phone.

I sat in the room with Juniper Evelyn.

Hannah sat next to me.

“Okay, so no more turkey and cheddar,” she said.

“Why not?”

“It’s over.”

“You broke it off?”

“I got chicken salad,” Hannah said. “No boobs. You know?”

“Whew. How did he take it?”

“Got some nasty texts. Then I reminded him I had a phone full of pictures of histhing. And it wasn’t that nice of athingeither.”

“And here I thought it was maybe true love for you.”

Hannah laughed. “Turkey wasn’t that good.”

I laughed.

“How’s the game?” Hannah asked.

“Tied right now,” I said. “Waiting to see Atlas again. I like showing Juniper Evelyn videos of her father.”

“You know, I was thinking… she’s going to grow up so protected and loved.”

“For sure.”
