"Hey!" I said smiling. I was in the bedroom with Jessa. The rest of the family was downstairs.
"Hey Jing. What's up?" Jessa smiled.
"I was wondering if I could talk to you."
"Yeah."
"Well, there's this guy I know an-"
"Ooooh! Sorry keep going" Jessa interrupted excitedly.
"And I've talked to Pops about him and he said that he likes me back."
"That's awesome Jinger!" Jessa said giving me a hug. "So, how'd you get to know him?"
"I met him through a church. His name is Jeremy Voulo."
"I've heard that name before."
"Really?"
"Ya. Have you ever searched him?"
"No. I didn't think that would be okay."
"I did it when I was with Ben. It's fine." Jessa said, pulling out her phone. "How do you spell his name?"
I told her.
"Woah! Jinger! It looks like he was a professional soccer player!"
"Oh. Ya I know. "
"And you failed to mention that? He could be famous!" Jessa said, excitedly.
"Ah, stop fangirling over him." I said, jokingly punching her shoulder.
"Okay. So? What now?"
"I don't know."
"Well, I'm going to go downstairs."
"Cool."

I don't know how long I was upstairs when Josie came in. "Hey Jinger, there's someone here to see you."
"Really? Who?"
"You'll have to come downstairs to see." She said, smiling as she left.

I closed up the laptop and made my way downstairs. There was a taller man standing in the living room and when he turned around I realized it was Jeremy. "Babe! What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to take you out for a nice dinner. Is that alright with you?"
"Ya, I mean, yes! Definitely! I'm just going to grab my coat, be right back." I said and ran up the stairs.

I grabbed my long black coat, fixed my hair and applied a little bit of lip gloss.

"There she is!" Pops said.
"Jinger, you look beautiful!" Jeremy said in awe.
"Thanks."
"Alright, ready to go?"
"Ya. I guess so."
"You two have fun. But not too much fun." Pops said, winking.
"Joy and Jana are waiting in the car." Jeremy told me.

We drove down to a smaller restaurant. Jeremy and I sat at a table for two, Joy and Jana sat a few tables over.
"So, what do you think about kids?" Jeremy asked out of the blue.
"I would love to have my own, definitely, then again I've grown up with kids in the house, no matter what. What about you?"
"I've been an only child," Jeremy said "but I'm sure it would be a lot of fun."
"I'm sure you would be an amazing father."
