Banner

“I’ll be home for dinner.”

For most newly-married couples, that’s probably a pretty standard thing to say, but for Jared and me, desperately trying to keep pace with the explosive growth of Elevation, our sports agency, these days it’s rare.

“So will I,” Jared replies, a smile breaking through the fatigue I detect even over the phone. “I have that meeting with Adidas, but I should be home by eight.”

“So a late dinner.” I signal the server for more water and search the crowded restaurant for my lunch companions. “That should give me time to cook.”

“Or I could bring something home so you won’t have to cook. You have a long day, too.”

“Awwww. So thoughtful.” I chuckle and smile my thanks to the server for the second glass of water he sets on the table. “But I want to cook. It’ll help me unwind.”

“There are better ways to unwind,” Jared says, his voice humored and husk

y.

“Oh, we can do that, too, Foster. I am ovulating.”

“Ovulating. So sexy. You know how all this reproductive foreplay turns me on.”

“Shut it.” My laughter comes quickly and fades just as fast. “I’m hoping this new prescription helps.”

There’s a brief silence filling up with Jared’s concern.

“It hasn’t been that long, Ban,” he finally says softly. “A few months. It’ll happen when it’s supposed to.”

“Says the man who isn’t even sure he wants kids.”

I regret the comment as soon as it leaves my mouth.

“Jared, I didn’t mean—”

“I’m in, Banner,” Jared replies, his gentleness turning firm. “You know that. Just because I’m not obsessed with having kids doesn’t mean I don’t want to. With you I want to.”

I sigh, frustrated with myself, with my body, with whatever is keeping me from conceiving.

“I do know that. I’m sorry. I’m feeling edgy, anxious. And you’re right. It hasn’t been long, but I hear that huge clock ticking.”

“Forget the damn imaginary clock.”

“It’s not imaginary, Jared. The doctor said my estrogen levels are low. She thinks I may be at risk for early menopause. Coupled with my PCOS, it just feels like this needs to happen now. She all but said this needs to happen now.”

“We’ll have our kids when the time is right. I don’t care if I have to hang you upside down and impregnate you with a turkey baster.”

“Ew.”
