I got a man to stick it out

A moment that Kansas didn't have a smile on his pale face was rare. The boy honestly thought he had never yet been this happy in his life. He felt more able to be a part of things (though he'd always be the one on the sidelines, more or less). To be a meaningful individual. And that was what he was becoming. He had a girl to love, and puppies on the way. His only hope was that he'd mean something to them, too. He was making a strong effort to ready himself for this — one of the ways, he thought, was by learning Italian. Having something unique like that to share with their children could keep them closer, maybe. Closer than his family had been, at the very least.
His arm wrapped gently around her shoulder with that hand gripping one side of the book he was reading to her, Kansas held his very pregnant mate close to him. He felt even more protective of her since she'd told him she was carrying his children; she was fragile, especially now that her pregnancy was so advanced. He'd been busying himself with taking care of her. Kansas was slightly worried that she was bored now that she couldn't really move around quite as much, so he tried to pay attention to her as much as possible. These "lessons" gave them something to do.
The snowy wolf gave his mate a soft, playful kiss on the cheek when she inquired about a word she was having trouble with. "It's 'together'... You're doing so well." She was learning much faster than he had. Of course, he'd been much younger, but he was still impressed by how quickly she was grasping the concepts of reading. He couldn't wait until they had little ones to read to. Together.
