Your Time

Chapter 54

{February 2033}

It was Valentine's Day. And Carrie woke to Harrison's phone ringing. It was 7:30 in the morning and she didn't feel like getting out of bed to answer his phone.

"Harry," she muttered to no avail. "Harrison."

He could sleep through just about anything, wether it be a crying baby or a loud thunderstorm. Harrison also snored very loud as well.

When his phone finally stopped ringing she closed her eyes and fell back asleep. Not five minutes later, Carrie was woken up by it again. "Harrison." She pushed him. "Harrison!"

Harrison continued to snore. "Babe wake up," she said while nudging him.

Carrie rolled her eyes. "Damn you Harrison." Meanwhile his phone began to ring for the third time.

"Harr-i-son!"

Then she kicked him. It wasn't hard but he still wouldn't wake up. Then Carrie kicked him hard in the side. "Harrison!"

He finally woke up. "What the hell is your problem!?"

Carrie started to push him to the edge of the bed with her foot. "Answer your damn phone!" She snarled back.

Harrison looked up, hearing his phone ringing for the first time. He slipped out from under the covers and went to answer his phone. Seeing his wife glaring at him, he went out into the hallway to take the call.

A half hour later he came back in. She was now sprawled out in bed with a giant pillow substituted for him. "Carrie."

He had to nudge her to wake her up. "Carrie. Sweetheart wake up."

She rolled over an unexpectedly hit him in the face with a pillow. "What was that for?"

"All the times you slept right through everything and left me to deal with it."

Harrison sat on the edge of the bed. "I'm sorry."

Carrie stretched out and asked him, "what was so important that they had to call you three times for?"

Now he was smiling. "Sweetheart it was the Cowboys. They want me to-"

"You're to old to play," she muttered as he began to rub her back. "Oh Harry that feels good."

"They don't want me to play," he told her. "They want me to coach."

That got her attention. "They offered you a coaching job?"

"I got offered the head coaching job."

Carrie rolled back over. "Did you take it?"

"Not yet."

"What are you waiting for?" She asked.

"I wanted to check with you first."

She sat up so her face was just inches from his. "Take the job."

"But what about you and your job?"

Carrie kissed his cheek. "I'll come with you."
