“Is there something you need to tell me, Lansfield, because now would be the time,” Shawn says, and it sounds like a warning. “I’m giving you the chance to come clean with me.”

He sighs but stands up. “Do not leave this room.”

Time to tell Shawn?

Chapter 39 is in Dallas’s POV. I think that’s a good sign.

…when I slide into Dallas’s Mercedes, I know I’m no longer being strong just for myself.
Maven

Maverick takes June so Maven can be at the hospital with Dallas.

Maven- “You’re a good guy, Maverick Miller. One day, you’re going to make someone very happy, and ten million hearts will all break because you’re officially off the market,”

“You saw what happened last week in San Diego. Their safety, JJ Hanson, went into cardiac arrest on the field after a brutal hit. That could just as easily happen to any of us. If it does—if it happens to me—I need you to promise me you’ll look after June. I love Maverick and Reid, but I trust you the most, Maven. I know you’ll take care of our girl.”

“I’m glad you’re not going anywhere, because I might give you my last name one day. Might put a shiny ring on your finger, too, and tattoo your name on my leg with all my other favorite things.”

Dallas takes a hard hit in a game

If anyone got a hold of my laptop, our relationship would be a dead giveaway. There are hundreds of photos of him—in his uniform, warming up with a goofy grin on his face as he interacts with the fans of the game. After a win in the tunnel to the locker room, his head tipped back and his helmet lifted in the air. Mid-jog onto the field, looking at me and catching me in a stare just as I catch him staring at me too.
