CHAPTER ELEVEN

I come from your typical all-American family. I'm an only child and my parents are so in love that growing up, watching their open affection for each either was sometimes sickening. My mom was your typical housewife—similar to a lot of our clients—and my dad worked. Dinner would be on the table the same time every night, and every night my dad would kiss my mom and thank her for not only dinner, but for running the house. I was seventeen when I walked into the kitchen and saw my mom and dad slow dancing in the middle of the room. There was no music. I remember thinking that that—who they were, and what they meant to each other, was the purpose of love. That synchronization. That never getting sick of each other. That effortless bond. That waking up every day and being thankful that the other half of you exists.

And as I watched Allie swinging away with the putter and missing the hole from two feet away for the thirteenth time, I wondered if she was my purpose. If she was all of that for me.

And I wondered why it was so hard for me to voice all of that to her.

We spend the rest of the day ticking off every single item on the list. By the time we finish rock climbing, we're both so exhausted we decide to skip dinner and go home to nap. That's where we are now; in my bed with her in my arms as she drifts off to sleep.
