“Maybe. It’s starting to have some pretty tempting qualities,” he says, staring right at me.

I try to fight off the blush but it’s no use. He’s so smooth, so attentive, and romantic. I’m not prepared to handle this.

“We’re hungry,” June says as she runs up to us.

“Can we buy food here?” Remington asks, looking around.

“Yeah, over there,” Noah tells him, pointing over to the concession stand.

“Let’s get everyone something to eat,” he says, pushing to his feet. “Lucy, want to grab a table for us?”

I nod and watch them head over to the concession stand, and my phone buzzes with a text.

Scarlett:Nash is taking me out for dinner tonight so I’ll have to cancel on movie night this week.

Emilia: Rex just promised Spencer that he would take us out to putt putt so we’ll have to postpone too.

Lucy: No worries! Have fun!

I tuckmy phone back into my pocket as Remington, Noah, and June all walk back over to me with their arms full of snacks and drinks.

“We got you an Icee,” June says, passing me my drink.

“Thanks.”

“And I got us a soft pretzel and some nachos,” Remington says, setting everything down at the table.

“Looks good. Did you say thank you?” I ask June and Noah, and they nod, their mouths already stuffed with popcorn and candy.

The kids devour the food fast and then run back to the trampolines.

“I wish there was a place like this when I was a kid,” I say. “Although, we wouldn’t have been able to afford it.”

“Me either,” Remington says, nudging the nachos closer to me.

My phone buzzes again and I pull it out.

Scarlett:See you tomorrow!

“Who was that?”Remington asks as I tuck my phone back into my pocket.

“Just this guy,” I lie. He drops the chip that he’s holding, glaring at my phone. “Kidding. It’s my friend Scarlett.”

“Not funny,” he mutters, and I grin.

“It was a little funny. I like messing with you.”

“Is that so?” Remington says in a deep, gravelly tone. I nod, ignoring the shiver running down my spine.

“Yup,” I confirm. “There’s a little vein that pops out near your left temple when you’re jealous. It’s kind of adorable.”

Before he can get a chance to say anything, the kids run up to us.

“Lucy! Can we go to the movies tonight? The new Marvel movie is out!” June says as she skids to a stop next to me.

“Maybe. I’ll have to text your mom and ask.”

Noah looks jealous and left out, and I glance at Remington.
