“Because I was too busy staring at you. If you’d let me come for a walk alone, I wouldn’t have tripped!”
Remy cleared his throat, and they both turned to look at them. Caley went red while the man just glowered.
“What are you doing here?” he snapped.
“Having a picnic,” Remy said calmly. “Doc, Caley, this is Isa.”
Doc nodded. “Met a few times.”
“Hi.” Caley waved. “Sorry about the Doc-Caley show. It’s free and amusing, but sometimes frustrating.”
“Very,” Doc said. He looked Isa over. “This is your girl?”
“Yep.” Remy wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
Doc grunted. “She looks pale. Have you had any blood tests lately?”
Oh great. She pinched her cheeks. She was pale?
“Doc, you can’t just go around telling people they’re pale,” Caley said.
“Why not?” He frowned at her. “You’re pale too. That’s it. You’re not leaving the house again.”
“Until . . .” she said.
“Until what?” he snapped.
“You’re meant to say you’re not leaving the house again until you’ve had this baby.”
“Why the hell would I say that?” he asked.
Caley threw her hands up in the air. “I give up. I give up.”
“On me?” Doc paled.
Isa’s breath caught in her throat at the look of horror on his face.
“I would never give up on you,” Caley said fiercely. “Not ever.”
“Good, because I wouldn’t let you.” Doc drew her close to him and kissed her. When he pulled back, he seemed surprised to see them still there.
Doc cleared his throat, glaring over at them. “Has Isa got sunscreen on?”
“Um no,” Remy said.
She looked up at the sky in confusion. It wasn’t really sunny today. He’d also made her wear three layers, including this jacket.
She didn’t think there was a chance of her getting sunburned.
“You should always wear sunscreen,” Doc said.
“Um, okay,” she said.
Caley rolled her eyes, but she was smiling, her hand in his. “We’re going to leave now and let you finish your day in peace. Besides, I think this button wants fed.” She ran her hand over her tummy.
“You’re hungry?” Doc asked. “Why didn’t you say so? We’ll get you home immediately.”
“You think he would be more blasé about this considering he’s a doctor, right?” Caley asked.
