“Wow,” I say, shocked my mother would ever say something like that.
“What are you two doing for lunch today? Maybe we could do something? Just the four of us so we can get acquainted before we fly home?” She flushes when I stare at her, too shocked to reply. “We’re in paradise, and I’d really like to get to know my daughter-in-law,” she adds.
Of everything she could’ve possibly said, that was the last thing I expected to hear from her.
“Okay. How about we meet at the beach bar at twelve?” I suggest. I already have a picnic arranged for the two of us. Two more people isn’t going to make a difference, and still gives me plenty of time to have some fun with her beforehand. “I’ll organize everything. You guys just turn up.” Mom smiles, and leans forward to kiss me on the cheek.
“That sounds wonderful, Lennon,” she says. Dad pats me on the arm and we exchange a smile as I watch them sit down at a table, still in shock.

I wander back to the hotel room in a daze, still processing what just happened. I’m nearly at our room when I run into Darcy’s parents.
“Lennon,” Jill grins, giving me a hug. “Congratulations again. How’s my girl?”
“She’s sleeping, and thanks,” I say. I shake Greg’s hand, balancing the breakfast tray in one hand.
“We’re just getting ready for our flight back. Maybe we can stop by on our way out?” Jill says.
“Sure,” I say. Any hope I had of waking Darcy up with a slow, toe curling orgasm is slowly evaporating. “What time?”
“In about ten minutes, if that’s ok?” Jill asks. “We won’t stay long. It’s just we’ve never gone a more than a few days without seeing our baby, and you’re keeping her here for a week.”
“I’m sure she’d love to see you,” I grin. “Come over whenever you like.”
I let myself back into the room and glance at Darcy as I place the tray on the coffee table. She’s just beginning to stir. She sits up, stretches and rubs her eyes, still half asleep. She smiles at me and I grin back, glancing at the gift I have waiting for her. She looks at it, her eyes growing wide.
“What’s that for?” she asks with a silly grin on her face. I laugh, because I’d figured as much. She’s had so much on her mind that she hadn’t factored in our anniversary.
“Is this for me?” she squeals, all excited.
“One year ago, today, you tried to steal a car and I stopped you,” I say, sitting on the bed next to her.
“A year ago?” She shakes her head. “I’m so sorry. I should’ve remembered. Especially when Casey kept going on about how I’d chosen the day after her anniversary to get married.” She turns back to me and smiles. “Did you choose it because it was so close to when we met?”
“I want to be romantic and say, yes, but it was the only day they had available here at the time,” I grin.
She laughs and shakes her head. “Still, I’m impressed you remembered to buy me something.”
“Of-course I did,” I chuckle. “It was the best day of my life.”
“I feel terrible that I haven’t gotten you anything,” she says, looking down and poking out her bottom lip.
“You’ve already given me the best present of all,” I say with a chuckle. “You.”
She rolls her eyes and kisses me. “Man, you can be so damn cheesy sometimes. I don’t count as a present. I have to give you something.” Her face brightens. “I’ve got it,” she says, a smile spreading across her lips. “I know exactly what I can give you.”
She pushes me back onto the bed and climbs on top of me, straddling my thighs. I laugh, then wrestle my way on top of her, groaning as she starts to wind me up. Her eyes sparkle with determination as she grinds her thigh against my erection. I roll off her and curse.
“As much as I’d love to take you up on that, I should’ve mentioned that your parents are going to be here in about five minutes,” I murmur.
“Seriously?” She frowns. I nod, and she curses under her breath. “Fine. After they go, then.”
