He nods repeatedly and so does his friend.
Jenna stands a few feet away from us, and I take long strides to reach her. She notices me and beams in my direction, making something flip inside me.
Can’t blame these fools for looking. My wife is beautiful. Fifteen years of marriage and three kids later, I still froth at the mouth when I look at her.
I’m not even trying to hide the swelling in my pants the closer I get to her.
Her eyes widen when she sees, and her face is beet red.
“Someone’s happy to see you, baby,” I whisper to her and stealthily lick the shell of her ear.
A shiver courses through her, and she smacks my arm. “Stop. Somebody might see us.”
“Somebody definitely will. It’s either this or I go crash my fist into those men’s jaws who refuse to look away.”
“Jacob… They’re not looking at me.”
“Hmm.”
I drape an arm around her and pull her close to me, meeting all the gazes of anyone who tries to stare at her. Good thing everyone is like a carbon copy of that loser earlier and starts busying themselves like I didn’t just catch them ogling my wife.
Jenna wraps an arm around my waist. We watch our twin boys make us proud while their older sister yells to her heart’s content in the stands.
I don’t know what I’ve done in my past life to deserve this, but I’m mighty glad I have her and our kids. I no longer take on projects that require me to be out on the field, but I still do plenty of research. That way, I can stay at home and never miss special events like this.
Meanwhile, Jenna…
I’m not sure if I believe in soulmates, but the fact is…she’s like the last piece of a puzzle slotting into place, like my soul has always been in search of hers.
This is a life I never knew I wanted. And I would never trade it for anything.
The End
