"You alright?" Jimmy asks as we head back home.
"Yeah." I say snapping out of my thoughts.
"Are you sure? You were fine one moment then you went outside and came back completely changed."
"I'm just tired." I lie.
George pulls up in our driveway and I'm scared to go inside.
"Do you guys want to crash here?" I ask as Jimmy opens the door.
"Sure!" Claire smiles getting out of the car.
We all go inside and Jimmy gives me a look.
I lead them to the guest room giving Claire some clothes to sleep comfortably in and George some of Jimmy's shorts.
I step inside our bedroom and Jimmy is getting dressed.
"Something's off."
"Nothing is wrong." I say.
"You're acting super paranoid." He says.
"No." I reply getting dressed into some shorts and a 49ers crewneck sweater. A water bottle pops on my nightstand and I jump.
"See." He says. "What's going on?"
"I got a call at Kwon's house." I quietly say.
"What call?" He asks.
"I don't know it was a number I'd never seen before."
"Well that did they say?" He asks sitting in bed next to me.
"They just said, I found you." I say. He frowns and turns to look at the bed.
"What can that mean?" He asks.
"I don't know, but it's been messing with my head ever since."
"Did you recognize the voice?" He asks.
"No it was just super deep."
"Maybe it's just a prank?" He asks.
"I hope so." I sigh. He puts his arm around me pulling to his chest.
"You'll be okay, I'll always protect you." He says stroking my hair. I fall asleep listening to his heartbeat.
I wake up and head downstairs to cook some breakfast for everyone. I enter the kitchen and see the back door is open.
I initially freeze before realizing Wilson isn't coming to me.
"Wilson." I call out inching towards the door. I don't hear paws on the floor so I keep walking towards the door. "Wilson!" I call louder and still nothing. My heart is pounding. I make it to the door and go outside but he's nowhere to be seen.
"Ana." Jimmy says from behind me scaring the absolute fuck out of me. I scream a little. "Hey what's the matter?" He asks.
"I can't find Wilson." I say with tears in my eyes.
"Honey he's right there." He says pointing to the living room where I see the big dog sleeping in his bed.
"Oh my god." I sigh closing my eyes in relief. I rest my head on his chest.
"Jimmy the door was open." I say. "It was open and I don't remember leaving it open." I'm panicking. He pulls his phone out showing me a video of me opening the door and forgetting to close it.
"You should go lay down, l'll make breakfast." He says holding my shoulders.
"No, it's fine. I'm fine I'll do it."
"Oh please let Jimbo make me breakfast." George says making me laugh.
"Fine, go ahead Jimbo." I tease.
Why am I so jumpy? I hate this. It was probably just a scam call, it happens a lot. I'm just overreacting the wedding and media attention I've had has gotten the better of me.
— Cardinals @ 49ers—
"Let's get back on track baby." I say to Jimmy before he leaves.
"I will for you." He says leaning in to kiss me. "You're coming right?"
"Of course, maybe not for warm ups but definitely for the game!" I assured him.
He leaves and I focus on work, so many pages and web stories.
Claire blows up my phone and I leave it on do not disturb.
I finish my stories and see it's 11:30. The game starts at 1, no way I'm making it on time. I rush to get get dressed and Claire says she's on her way to get me. I quickly put on the throwback jersey, black pants and boots. My hair was waved out so I put it in a ponytail before grabbing a 49ers hat.
I'm done in time and we head over.
"I got a good feeling about this one." She smiles as we get near Santa Clara.
"Me too, Jimmy's really focused."
"How's his knee?"
"It's good, I just hate when he does the quarterback sneak." I sigh.
"I feel like you're the mom worrying about him as he's just having fun." She laughs... that kind of hurt.
"Well I don't want him to get hurt again and when the players sacking him are going for the knee it's hard to enjoy the game when he snaps the ball I don't relax until he passes it or throws it and even then there's always late hits."
"But he always gets up. You need to relax."
"You're not there when he can't get out of bed because he can't put any weight on it or when he wakes up with it swollen or when he has to take a break during a beach walk Monday mornings because it hurts from games." I say. She doesn't say anything and I let out a sigh.
"I'm sorry." She finally says. "He doesn't give the impression that he's still in pain."
"I know, but I think people forget he was learning how to run again a couple months ago." I remind her.
I really am sorry." She says putting her hand on my arm. "I can't even imagine how hard these games are because you're right they do go for the knee when they try to get him."
"It's okay." I smile.
We get to the stadium and go through security. We see Kristin waiting for us with drinks ready, she's awesome.
"Hey Mrs. Fullback." I wink taking my beer.
"You look cute." She smiles.
"I'm actually going to get some water." Claire says not taking her cup.
"There's a line." Kristin pouts.
"It's fine, go to your seats, I'll catch up." She smiles. So we do.
We're down 16 and I see the frustration in Jimmy's face when this throw gets picked.
The crowd cheers them on as they deliver perfect drives in the fourth quarter. He gets sacked once and my heart sinks but he recovers quickly.
We get the win and decide to go to dinner afterwards.
"That was amazing! Especially that last play from defense." Claire says making Jimmy and George go off on a tangent about what they would have done in their situation. Claire and I stare at each other and I know what to do.
"You look lovely I'm so glad we decided to do this!" She says holding my hand from across the table.
"Me too! Jimmy never pays attention to me anymore, I'm so glad I could go out with someone who acknowledges me." I say caressing her hand.
"You're so special." She smiles. We expect to get a reaction but instead we find them doing exactly what we're doing.
"Don't you just like love talking about clothes and new cropped jerseys together." George says in a high pitched voice.
"Yes! Omg we should totes go get brunch tomorrow morning! I heard of a new place I'm DYING to try." Jimmy replies. Claire and I look at each other before the whole table erupts in laughter.
"Oh guys are the worst!" I laugh. "And Jimmy I do not talk like that!" I say playfully pushing his shoulder back.
"All jokes." He smiles as he leans in to kiss my lips.
"Woah calm down guys there are children at the table." George says. Jimmy and I laugh but when I turn to see them they're completely serious. I furrow my brows slightly and see Claire is drinking water—no wine glass. And she didn't drink with us yesterday, she only poured drinks AND SHE WAITED IN LINE FOR WATER TODAY
"Are you guys? Claire are you pregnant?" I ask, raising my eyebrows.
"Little Kittle on the way!" She smiles holding her belly.
"Congratulations!!!" I say getting up to give her a hug. I put my hand on her belly not believing there's a tiny human in there.
"C'mon man." Jimmy says hugging George "you're gonna be an amazing dad."
"You'll make a great one too." George replies.
"I don't know when that'll happen." I hear say with a sigh. I take my hand off her belly and go sit down.
"Clock is ticking." Claire teases. I smile uncomfortably and Jimmy turns to look at me. I look up at him seeing his bright eyes and perfect smile.

We get home and I get ready for bed when I feel him come up from behind me.
"Jimmy." I giggle as his scruff tickles my neck.
"Let's make a baby." He whispers in my ear.
"Baby." I say turning to face him. "We haven't even gotten married yet." I say looking up at him.
"So? We've been together for almost 6 years, that's a lifetime." He says.
"No I don't want a baby bump at my wedding." I shyly say.
"That's really selfish." He says.
"No it's not." I frown. "If anything I could tell you the same thing."
"I don't care what you look like at our wedding, you're going to be beautiful regardless."
"You're not charming me into changing my mind James." I say holding my ground. "Plus baby you have this season to worry about. We're going to the Super Bowl and I want you to be completely focused."
"What if we don't?"
"With the mindset you and Kyle have I can almost put money on it." I say making him smile.
"But we will have kids right?" He asks. "We've had our fun, I don't want to wait any longer."
"James I promise the second we get married you can pump as many children as you want into me." I say putting my hands on his waist.
"Bet."
"Bet." I say making both of us laugh. We're going to make perfect babies.
