Golden

Chapter 36: Progeniture

—8 years later—
"Gianni please put your shoes on!" I yell from my room wanting to get going soon.
"But mom I don't want to!" He yells back. I sigh before going into his room finding him on his bed fully dressed except the damn shoes.
"C'mon corazon, daddy is waiting for us."
"Why can't daddy wait here for me?" He asks.
"Because he's the daddy." Gia says popping into the room.
"Exactly." I agree. "Because he's the daddy, and he had to go set everything up so it's the least we can do for him, right?" I ask nudging his shoulder slightly.
"Okay." He nods before putting his shoes on.
Gia was perfectly dressed in her dads jersey and I'm so glad she's so independent already.

I get them in the car along with snacks and water, this is Bosa's 10th annual football camp for kids and their 3rd year going because he always begs me to take them. They enjoy it of course so I don't mind.
"Are you all excited?" I ask as Levi stadium comes to view.
"Yesss!" They both yell.
"I love uncle Nick!" Gia says making me smile, Bosa has definitely picked her as his favorite and I can't even complain, she's great.
I park the car and have them hold my hands as I walk them into the stadium.
I expertly navigate through the maze and we end up on the field.
"Daddy!" Gia yells running towards Jimmy whose eyes light up when she runs to him. He picks her up and spins her around making my little girl smile.
Kyle is quick to scoop up Gianni and also spins him around, I swear I can see him creating a plan for him already, and Gianni loves it so if this is what he wants I fully support it.
"Hi." Jimmy says putting Gia down and giving me a kiss.
"Hi." I smile wrapping my arms around his neck. "Only struggled with Gianni wanting to put his shoes on."
"That boy and shoes, what are we gonna do with him?" He asks, making me laugh.
"I don't know, it's a trait he gets from you."
"I love shoes."
"It takes you forever to actually put them on." I tease making me chuckle.
"True." He nods.
"Mommy! Coach uncle Kyle said I'm going to get more Super Bowl rings than dad!" Gianni says running back to us. I laugh and Jimmy picks him up.
"Oh yeah?" He asks.
"Yea!" Gianni responds.
"So how many are you going to get?" Jimmy asks.
"6!" He shouts making us laugh.
"You got it bud." He replies before putting him down.

Claire and George show up with Greg who runs to Gianni to start warm ups.
"I'm so glad they decided to be friends instead of enemies." Claire laughs seeing the kids play.
"Me too." I laugh.

The kids play around and enjoy the day to the fullest amount possible. I love that they naturally gravitated to love the game.

"Pizza?" George asks the kids who jump up and celebrate screaming yes.
We drive to a pizza place and have some dinner.
"Look at us." Claire smiles.
"Who would have thought?" George asks motioning to the kids at their table and us in ours.
"Not me!" Jimmy says making all of us laugh.
We talk about the Super Bowl win and laugh at the rumors the media has been spreading.
"Three rings in 8 years, not bad guys." Claire says butting into the conversation.
"And we'll make it 4 soon." Jimmy assures winking towards me.
"Anymore kids?" George asks. Jimmy and I share a look before smiling.
"I think we're good." He says to which I nod in agreement.
"Life is just too good right now to want to change." I add.
"That's fair." Claire smiles. "We're thinking about trying again." She says and George pretends to choke.
"I'm joking." He laughs and Claire relaxes.
"Shanahan is working on his plan for Gianni already." Jimmy says with a proud smile.
"Any way he can work in a monster tight end in the making?" George asks, making us laugh.
"Of course, lets go baby." Jimmy smiles.
"Let's goooo!" I hear Gianni yell from the other table making us all laugh.
"Just like his dad." I smile.
"And loud like his mom." Jimmy says earning a quick glare from me.

We go back home and all change into our pijamas before heading into the living room.
I bring out cookies and snacks while Jimmy puts on his Super Bowl highlights.
The kids watch diligently while calling out plays and coverages as they sit on the floor. . Jimmy and I sit down on the couch and smile as we hear them.

"So, how's life treating ya?" He asks resting his hands on my lap which were over his lap. I look over and see the kids cheering on their dad on the screen making me smile. This is the life I craved for all my life, happy parents and happy kids.
"I have two beautiful children, an amazing job, and husband who does whatever it takes to make me smile, and is a 5 time super bowl winner." I say making him smile. "Life has never been sweeter." I finally reply leaning in to kiss him.
