“Jesus, Cody.” Travis shakes his head.
“What? It’s giving ‘power couple.’”
“It’s giving ‘he can bench your ass, and she can trade you.’”
“Exactly. Power couple. And they wouldn’t.” Cody looks at us. “Would you? You love me too much. But out of curiosity, with three happy couples here and all, just how many hookups have happened at the stadium?”
“I’m so sorry for him.” Travis pushes Cody to keep moving and doesn’t let up until he’s far enough away from our table.
“I’m not here to judge! You can tell me!” Cody yells over his shoulder at us.
I feel Reese silently shake in laughter behind me.
“What?” Kai laughs. “Mills and I have never hooked up at work. Well, if we don’t count any of the road trips from that summer she was nannying for Max.”
“Yeah, for sure,” Kennedy adds. “Same here. No hookups at work. Definitelynot.”
Isaiah scratches the back of his neck. “But also, maybe don’t use the women’s restroom by the clubhouse.”
“I knew it!” Reese bursts. “You two looked guilty as hell when I found you in there last year.”
“Really, guys?” I ask. “The bathroom?”
“You two probably have no room to talk.” Isaiah lifts an accusatory brow. “Why don’t you go ahead and tell us what roomsweshould avoid at work, huh?”
Reese stays silent.
“How about we don’t,” I answer for us.
“Pleasedon’t.” Miller visibly grimaces. “I’ll never be able to go to another game there if this conversation continues. For the love of God, can we talk about something other than my dad’s sex life?”
She holds her left hand over her eyes to shield herself.
“Oh, Miller,” Reese sighs from behind me. “I hadn’t seen your wedding band yet.”
The conversation shifts as my daughter excitedly holds out her left hand to show her.
Reese takes it in her own, examining the diamond band nestled against Miller’s engagement ring. “It’s beautiful,” she says. “It pairs perfectly with your mom’s ring. I love them together.”
Miller beams, checking out her own hand. “I love them too.”
Taking Reese’s hand that I still have in my own, I bring it to my lips and press a kiss to the back of it. She didn’t miss a beat when I told her the significance of Miller’s engagement ring, which is just another reason I love her.
“We should get this kid to bed soon,” Kai says with Max’s cheek pressed to his shoulder.
Miller cranes her neck back to look up at him. “One more dance, the three of us, and we’ll call it a night?”
He wears this soft smile as he looks down at her. “Sounds perfect, Mills.”
“What do you say, wifey?” Isaiah asks Kennedy. “We’ve got a second wedding coming up ourselves. Maybe we should go practice.”
“This music is a little different than what I’m accustomed to getting married to.”
Isaiah laughs, standing to carry her out to the dance floor, following his brother’s lead.
Hand in mine, Reese backs away from the table, urging me to stand and follow her. “Come on, Em. I can’t let my final dance be with Isaiah.”
“Hey!” Isaiah interjects. “I’m an excellent dancer, Reese. Isn’t that right, Kenny?”
