Closing her eyes, Dagny enjoyed the feeling of Thad playing with her hair. His answer made her smile. Most importantly, she realised belatedly, he hadn't said he didn't want kids one day. It wasn't something she'd put a lot of thought into, but could she be with someone long-term if they didn't share the same vision in that respect? It seemed like she didn't have to worry about that.
She decided to pose a question of her own. "What about pets? Or animals?" Dagny knew the Notts had horses, but it seemed wrong to call them pets. "Are you harbouring plans to adopt a dozen kitties?" It was hard to keep the laughter out of her voice - she really couldn't picture it.
