“Nonsense. Of course they’ll want to play football. It’s genetic.”

“Well, I don’t play football, nor do I want to. What if they want to do something else?”

Turning her fully around, he hugged her. “They can be whatever they want. But only after we determine that they can’t play football. How does that sound?”

Laughing, she gave him a playful shove. “Ridiculous. Now come on, let’s eat.”

She’d made sandwiches and some potato salad, and after taking a few bites, he asked, “What are your thoughts on Hawaii or other tropical locations? Any preferences?”

“Ooh…I don’t think I have a preference. How come?”

“We have nothing but free time right now and I just thought that maybe we should go somewhere.”

“Really?” she asked excitedly. “I love that!”

“I was going to see if Simon, Jules, Noah, and Lily wanted to go too,” he said around a mouthful of potato salad. “Would that be okay?”

“Um…I guess? Lily’s pretty far along in her pregnancy, so I’m not sure how she’ll feel about traveling or if she even can. But…if it’s not an issue and we’re not sharing a room with them or anything…”

“Separate rooms or separate bungalows. Got it.”

Beside him, she was practically bouncing in her seat. “I really hope we can make this happen! I’ve never been anyplace tropical!”

Just imagining her in a bikini on the beach was all the incentive he needed.

Hell, it was all the incentive he needed to want her right now.

Pushing his lunch aside, he grinned. “How about we go inside and change into our bathing suits and go out to the hot tub? Then I can get you out of your bikini and we can pretend we’re at some fancy beach resort.” Then he waggled his eyebrows playfully. “What do you say?”

Standing, she gave him her own sexy grin. “I say…what are we waiting for?” And with a giggle, she turned and ran toward their bedroom. Jax was about to chase after her when his phone rang.

Glancing down at it, he saw it was his father and decided to ignore it. Then he muted the sound so he and Lucy wouldn’t be disturbed. The call probably wasn’t important and he’d deal with it later.

After all, what bombshell could he possibly need to drop now?
