“I’m waiting for Ava to finish up with Charlotte.”

“Ah, that’s right. You two are spending the day together.” A smile crossed his lips. “By the way, I meant to ask you and Gabriel last night. Did your motorcycles come in yet?”

“Not yet. I’ll give Larry a call later and see what’s going on with them.”

“Good. The sooner you get them, the sooner we can all ride together.”

My phone pinged with a text message from Ava.

“I’m done.”

“I’ll meet you outside Charlotte’s office.”

“I have to go. Ava’s finished with her appointment. I’ll see you later, Shaun.”

“Enjoy your day with your woman.” He smiled and winked.

“I fully intend to.”

I walked out of the kitchen area and over to Charlotte’s practice.

“How did your session go?” I hooked my arm around her and kissed the side of her head.

“It went well. I told her that I’m ready to learn the truth about what happened to me, but first, I need to have a meeting with the others.”

The elevator doors opened, and we stepped inside.

“How do you do that? Have a meeting with them?” I asked.

“I sit in a quiet place and go inside my mind. We have this room with a round table that seats six, and we all gather around it and talk. I know it sounds crazy to you.”

“Not at all.” I smiled as we walked out of the medical center. “What do you want to do?”

“I want to spend the day on the beach, have a picnic, and swim in the ocean with you.” A wide grin crossed her face.

“Sounds like an excellent plan.” I leaned in and kissed her lips.

We stopped at the store, grabbed some things for our picnic, and headed back to the house. After changing into our bathing suits, I grabbed a blanket, and we set up down by the water.

“I’m going in.” She smiled as she stood up and ran to the water.

I quickly stood up and chased her. She screamed when I grabbed her from behind, picked her up, and carried her in with me. We laughed as the water flew over us while I held her up and her arms wrapped tightly around my neck.

“Don’t let go,” she said as her eyes stared into mine.

“I’m never letting go.” My lips brushed against hers.

We played around in the ocean for a while and swam back to shore. After drying off, we sat on the blanket and ate some of the food.

“What a perfect day.” Ava smiled.

“It is.” I kissed the side of her head.

My phone pinged with a text from an unknown number.

“Hi, Grayson. I got the job! I went to the hospital to tell you the good news, and they told me it was your day off. I was hoping we could go out and celebrate tonight.”

“What the fuck?” I silently spoke to myself.
