Coach Daddy
Page 12
Atlas gave him a bonus anyway. Half a million dollars.
It was more than enough to buy ourselves a beautiful house near here. I moved in right after the season. We’ve been living together ever since.
And we don’t hide anything. We don’t have to. The media reported on the kiss and even though it was a minor scandal, it somehow passed into just another bit of old news. Nobody fired Cole, nobody even complained.
It just became a normal thing.
Now here we are, undefeated after five games. I look up at his face and smile. We’re going to make the playoffs this year.
Hell, if Cole has his way, we’re going to win the Super Bowl.
Keeping Sean healthy is a big part of my job these days. Ever since his off-season surgery, he’s been in a little pain. I’ve been working with him, but recovery is hard.
“How’s he been feeling?” Cole asks me.
“Good, I think,” I say. “Winning helps. He’s in pain all the time, but there’s no helping that.”
“No,” he grunts. “The kid’s really strong.”
“He really is.”
“Plays his heart out for me.”
I sigh, put my hand on Cole’s shoulder. “It’s okay. It’s his decision.”
Cole nods, face tight.
I know playing Sean is tough on him. Everyone knows we need Sean to win, and Cole knows it most of all. But he hates putting Sean in when he’s always hurting.
That’s why I come here and do extra therapy with him every day. Not exactly for Sean, although it’s for him too, of course.
Mainly it’s for Cole. I want to help him as much as we can.
We come down the hallway. Cole glances at me.
“You know I love you, right?”
“I know,” I say, smiling. We come up to the training room door. There’s a strange yellow glow from inside. “What’s wrong?”
He sighs and smiles. “Go ahead.”
I bite my lip, hesitating. “Cole.”
“Go on.”
I open the door and step inside.
The training room is covered in candles. It’s absolutely packed with them. Most of the players and the training staff are there, staring at us. Tessa is there, Felix and Patrice and Sean, they’re all there. I stare at the group, eyes wide.
Everyone’s smiling huge, but nobody speaks. Even Robby’s grinning at me, and winks.
I turn to Cole. “What is—”
The words die in my throat.
He’s down on one knee in front of me, a big diamond ring in his hand. “Leah, ever since we met, I knew. I love you more than anything, and—”
“Yes, you idiot!” The words come out in a rush.
The whole room laughs, and Cole grins.
“Will you marry me?” he asks.
“Yes!” I say again. He stands, slips the ring on my finger, and we kiss.
The whole room bursts into applause and cheers. People hug us, a big massive bear hug from everyone we love.
Because this team is a family. As much as it’s a business and a team, it’s a family. We’ve gone through a lot these past two seasons together, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Cole kisses me. “Can’t get away now,” he says softly.
“Never would, not for the world.”
I kiss him and I’m swept away by people congratulating me, hugging me, kissing my cheek. Sean grins, punches my shoulder.
“I’ll see you later,” I say to him.
He winces. “I know.” He trudges off.
I grin. Tessa runs up and hugs me.
“I knew it, I knew it, but it was soooo hard not telling you.”
I laugh and hug her back.
Eventually, Robby peels her away. Cole yells at everyone, tells them to get to work. They all came in early today, just to see this, just to be here for this moment.
I drift back to him. My future husband, my Daddy.
My love. My everything.
I kiss him and he holds me. For a moment, we’re alone in the training room, surrounded by candles.
It’s perfect. It’s everything I need.
As long as I have him, I know I’ll always be complete.
“Come on, Daddy,” I whisper to him. “Let’s get to work. We have some games to win.”
He grins, kisses my cheek. “That’s my girl.”
I squeeze his hand. We leave the room together.
I don’t look back. I only need to look forward.
At my perfect future with my perfect man.
