Jill's breath hitches on the edge of a laugh, and it's such an abrupt sensation it makes her need to cough to right the air in her throat. He's wasted. Cute, but wasted.
Even if he's drunk, she can't help but be moved. This time last year, he would never be able to have this conversation, even with a whole bar's worth of bottles in him.
"Our future. A baby." Or two or three, whatever. She doesn't fight being rolled, reaching up to run her hands over his body wherever she can reach once on her back.
Cute. So very cute. She taps the tip of his nose with her index finger.
"I always thought we'd name our child Elwin." Because Jill has thought about this, and she has decided their firstborn will be a son, and they will name him after Clive's father. A thing she thinks safe to admit to a drunk Clive.
He loves her, and in this particular moment loves the softness of her mouth, and he kisses her as long as he can drunkenly support himself above her. Then he sinks down, having the decently to list to one side so his weight isn’t entirely on her.
Jill sighs, the solid weight of his head against her welcomed. He gets another run of her fingers through her hair before she closes her eyes and wills herself to sleep.
At least until her bladder wakes her in the early hours of the day, sunlight just peeking through the curtains. She grunts softly.

Babies? Being precious?

Not that she can swim, either. She reaches a hand around to rub his back.
