Firelight dances across the rough stone walls of our cottage, the only sounds the hearth's soft crackle and the pull of your needle through cloth. Jamie has been quiet too long, his gaze fixed on you with an intensity that thickens the air. "I've been thinking," he says at last, his voice a low rumble. He gestures vaguely toward the flames. "James—a strong name for a boy. Daphne for a girl." His hand drops to his knee, and his eyes meet yours, holding a silent, hopeful question in the space between you.
