house, there was a lot of damage. I renovated it extensively but the attic was pretty much intact. I don’t think I ever went up there until after we moved in and then only long enough to shove a few boxes up there.”
They shared a knowing look.
“Holy crap,” he said. “I guess it’s not just turtles and salmon that come home to nest. So what do you want to do?”
Annie brushed away her tears and smiled up at him. “Some naked guy I once met once told me I should listen more closely to the Universe … so that’s what I’m going to do.”
He turned her around and led her back to the house, scratching his head. “Shocking!”
She peered up at him. “That I don’t have a plan?”
“Hell no! That you listened to a naked guy!”
As they walked, she slid her arms around her husband’s waist. “Not as shocking as the fact that I married him.”
“Lucky man!” he said as Lady came up and shoved her nose beneath his hand.
“Lucky me,” Annie said as she watched him pet their dog. “He used to be a real lady’s man.”
Jamie chuckled and reached down to rub her belly. “I’m pretty sure he still is. I hear he’s got two women already and another on the way.”
Annie smirked. “Want to try for four?”
He gave her a smile full of promise and said, “I think we’re going to need a bigger sailboat.”
