"You ready, Diana?" I ask.

Our little girl grabs her small, pink book bag and puts it on her shoulders.

"Yep!" She grins.

"Then let's go." Luke picks her up and swings her around once, making her giggle. He then sets her on his shoulders and ducks down when he walks through the door.

I watch from the front seat with a smile as Luke buckles Diana into her car seat. Even though he was a player in high school and college, he loves me and only me now.

I hold his large hand as he drives with the other hand, smiling at my pretty boy as he talks to Diana about his game last night.

"Daddy?" She asks.

"Yes, darling?"

"How did you and mommy meet?"

I let out a small laugh, remembering the day perfectly, and I know Luke does too.

He smirks at me at the stop light then turns his head back to the road as he starts driving.

"That's a good story. Isn't it, Nicky?"

"Yep. Very, very, very interesting." I smile.

"Tell meee!" Diana begs.

"Alright. Well, your mother was a little freshman, and I was a star sophomore due to my basketball skills and good looks."

"Nooo!" She giggles.

"Why no?" Luke asks.

"You don't have good looks!"

I laugh and high five Diana as Luke holds his hand over his heart.

"Ouch," He says.

"Sorryyyyy."

"Its okay. What I was saying, before I got rudely interrupted, was that I was a star sophomore because of my basketball skills and extremely good looks. And your mother caught my eye."

"I caught your eye because I was a girl you haven't dated yet." I say.

"What? Nooo. But I talked with your mommy a lot and by the next week we were ma- um... playing board games in the janitor's closet." Luke leans over and whispers, "I was playing board games with your pus-"

I put my hand over his mouth and shake my head.

"Aww, then you getted married next day?" Diana asks.

"Well, right when your mother graduated high school, we got married."

"Yet you still looked at other girls." I whisper.

"Not anymore," Luke whispers back, kissing my cheek.

I smile back at Diana as Luke parks the car. "You excited?"

"No." Diana sinks down in her seat. Luke and I get out of the car and he takes her out of the seat.

"Well," he sets her own the ground. "You have to deal with it."

"Don't listen to him." I hold Diana's hand. "You're going to have so much fun and make so many great friends."

"Promise?"

I bend down and kiss her forehead. "I promise."
