Second Chance

Dinner went off without a hitch that night. Ryan, Kevin and Eddie were charmed by Danny and appreciated Jacobs playful banter. Ryan and Kevin both have children so we decided we could have a play date in the near future. It was about two week later and Vancouver was on a road trip around the East coast.

My phone buzzed with a message from Michelle, *You and Jacob still together?*

*Why yes. We are. Why do you ask?*

*He usually let blonde bimbos sit on his laps at clubs?* Attached was a photo of Jacob and some blonde at a bar looking quite cozy. My heart shattered in a matter of seconds. I had never seen this side of Jacob before. He was always so sweet and quiet.

*No. He doesn't. Thank you.*

*I'm a phone call away if you need someone.*

Not only was my heart breaking but I had no one to hug me and tell me he was an ass. I had no friends up here. That's when it hit me. I moved so far and so quickly it all crumbled. I laid down in bed and cried for what seemed to be hours. My phone had been turned off long ago.
"Mommy, please don't cry." I felt a small body wiggle his way into my arms. "I love you Danny. I would never do anything to hurt you. You know that right?"
"yes Mommy." Danny slowly pet my hair and soon I was asleep curled into my young child.

Two days later, Jacob was due home any minute. I had no idea what to do at this point. The past two days I spent either with Danny, or throwing myself into my new job. I was in the kitchen when the door flew open and Jacob screamed my name. "God, don't tell me they left. Please." He ran into the kitchen and saw me standing against the sink. Holding back tears.

"I never meant for that to happen. Things got out of hand but that picture was taken within the two minute span where I just wasn't thinking. I didn't touch her. I could never do that to you. Please, you have to understand that that was a shot taken at exactly the right time. I love you. God I love you and I never meant to hurt you." He was on his knees in front of me, begging.

"Okay. I should have known, I was that girl five years ago. I just got pregnant." I said not looking at him.

"Stop that. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me besides our kid. Don't you dare compare yourself to some bottle blonde bimbo."

"THAT'S THE THING! I CAN'T COMPARE! I'M AVERAGE. I'VE SEEN THE PICTURES OF THE WIVES ON THIS TEAM. I LOOK AWFUL COMPARED TO THEM. I'M ALREADY INSECURE ENOUGH ABOUT THIS!" I covered my mouth, I never meant for that to come out.

"You are beautiful. Do you not see that? You look real, and like an actual role model for kids. You aren't as thin as a stick but you are healthy and make other girls not feel like shit like the other wives. You work, you got a college degree. You have so much over them but you don't see that. I do."

I ran over to him and jumped into his arms. "God, I love you."

"come here I have something I want to show you."

Jacob took Danny and I to this little lake, the sun was just setting and it wasn't too cold. It was the perfect scenery. I was too busy staring at the sunset to realize that Jacob had gotten shorter. I looked over and on one knee was Jacob aswell as Danny, but only JAcob was holding out a ring box.
"Bridget Brennan, I've somehow gotten a second chance with you. I promise not to screw up again will you please make me the luckiest man alive, and be my wife?"

My jaw dropped and I almost started to cry. I leaned down to kiss him. And whispered "Yes."
