I don't think Fletcher only cares about rugby. I think he puts all of his energy into rugby because he's always believed it wouldn't hurt him. Except it has. It's hurting him the same way soccer hurt me. A sport can't help but hurt you, when it's inevitable that one day your body won't be able to do it anymore.

It's annoying to me that you're not the judgmental @$$hole I thought you were six years ago.

I'm a massive judgmental @$$hole.

Judgmental @$$holes are rarely self-aware enough to call themselves judgmental @$$holes.

Always knew I was one in a billion.

The only thing Monopoly is good for is as a psychological test of your enemies.

Trying to make up for a lifetime of not being what he needed?

You can't be a parent and not f#ck it up.

I'd prefer to be a parent who can fix it.

I'm 28, but I was born into soul of 75-year-old woman. I've read basically every human behavior book ever written, plus I've lived through few things.

Wars & famine, hm?

Death, divorce, injury, illness, broken dreams, broken hearts. Maybe I haven't lived through it as many times as other people, but that doesn't mean I can't understand what makes people tick & how to put them on a path to achieving their goals.

How'd you get a name like "Goldie" with black hair?

My legal name is Jessica. Apparently, it was my eyes. And then I fell in love with the story, "Goldilocks and the Three Bears".

When we moved to Australia, I played hockey.

Aw, you must have been the cutest.

And terrible.

Weren't you, like, 5?

That's no excuse for being terrible.

You're ridiculous. And that's adorable.

You said "studly sex god" wrong.

Everyone needs a backup career they don't use.

He studies me. Doesn't ask a thing - just watches. That's Fletcher's quiet superpower: watching, observing, connecting dots.
