Time for a change

Always got what I (32) wanted and was used to getting my way. So, I was doing well in my career and social life. But I'd a nagging feeling I was missing something important, I finally found what it was. At a family gathering I saw my dull cousin 30 and his family, and he was very happy. I felt he was doing better than me, something I would've never thought possible before that day. His wife wasn't anything special in looks or body type, but they seemed perfect for each other. I returned home somewhat jealous of my cousin lifestyle. But me being me thought I could do much better, I would find the perfect wife and have the perfect family. First problem, all the women I dated were party girls, not actually someone I would marry. No suitable women available in my social circle either that I'd noticed at least. Several months later, the idea had only gotten stronger, and a sense of failure had started to grow inside me. I was at a company meeting and noticed a new face, she 28 was an assistant. Quiet and unattached and assigned to no one, the more I checked her out the more I liked everything about her I learnt. Fortune favored me as it always had before, my current assistant got engaged and after marrying was moving interstate with her new husband. So, I would require a new assistant, taking the chance offered I chose the woman who'd gained my interest. She was as I had assumed her to be and very quiet and would bring me something and just wait until I asked her for it. My other assistant would just have handed it to me straight away. Needing to get close to her I took on a job, I could've passed on as it meant travelling to Alaska for a week. Some minor people could've handled it, but it would give time with my assistant away from her comfort zone. I got a lot closer to her but failed to get her into my bed. Which only increase my desire to succeed with her. Finally, I realized she wouldn't ever sleep with outside of actual marriage. So, I proposed to her, saying she was the woman I wanted to be my wife and other such things. She was of course shocked, but didn't refuse my wedding proposal. She thought about it and asked her family, then she accepted the proposal five days later. Three months later we were married only then did I bed her, no precautions taken. She got pregnant after two months of marriage, we would've a son and then a daughter. At another family gathering I saw my dull cousin again with his family still happy and I felt I was at least equal to him but prefer to think I'm better than him again.
