“And really,” Harrison said, leaning back in his chair now that his drink was finished. ”Isn’t that what’s important in life? I love what I do, I would never want to do anything else. If you have a career you love, a woman you love, then I think you’re doing it right.”
Jack smiled. “That’s true as well. I count myself lucky every day that I met Katelynn. There’s so much in my life that’s she’s changed.” In the back of his mind, he made a note, I should put that in my vows.
“… I was wondering,” he went on, a little hesitant. “W-would you like to come over to our place sometime? I’m sure Katelynn would love to see you, and we could talk some more about the wedding plans.”
“Sure,” Harrison said with a shrug. “I have a lot of experience with planning large events, you know. And I’ve made it clear to Katelynn that I’m happy to help her, even with the more girly side of things. If for example dress shopping makes you want to slit your own wrists.”
Jack shook his head, with a wry smile. “I don’t mind shopping, I’m just not very good at it. I have an eye for color and line when it comes to painting, but clothes? Not so much.” That, and he tended to think Katelynn looked lovely in anything, which made him a bad judge. “She might also appreciate some thoughts on how to fix her hair. She’s shown me some ideas, and they’re all nice, but she needs a more discerning eye to narrow it down."
