"Laney, I'm not arguing," he said quietly.

She swallowed the next segment of her tirade and said on a more reasonable note, "1 like my work very much, Deke. It's important to me. Until—" She had started to say ". . . until you . . ." but amended it. "—until the baby, that's all I had. I'm a good teacher and want to continue teaching always."

"I was half teasing when I suggested that you sit out the semester, Laney. I was only thinking that it might be easier on you if you did."

She shook her head. "It would only make the time pass more slowly."

He began helping with the chore of clearing the table. "When do you go back?" "The day after New Year's." "And when is your next vacation?" "March. I plan to have the baby during the spring break." "No holiday until then?"

His questions were a little too casual, a little too subtle, a little too much like a shrewd attorney's preliminary probing before the thundering interrogation. Immediately she became suspicious. Setting a wineglass carefully on the tray, she looked at him steadily. "Why? Why are you asking about holidays?"

He shrugged nonchalantly. "I was trying to decide when we should get married."
