I felt my heart sink.

“Okay.” I smiled at him. “I better take these boys riding again before they cause anarchy.”

Lock frowned and reached for me, but I’d already put the motor back into gear and started out.

He didn’t do it on purpose.

He didn’t do it on purpose.

I kept repeating those words, over and over again.

He didn’t say yes to an all-day tournament on your anniversary, at least. He said yes for the day after. No way did he realize you had a weekend planned that included his parents watching the kids and us spending a little alone time at our house.

Yes, at least it wasn’t our actual anniversary.

I still was sad.

I’d had an entire day planned out Friday, that extended into Saturday.

Which happened to be why my parents were here, along with his.

My mom and dad, as well as Memphis and Downy, were going camping.

They would be taking our children with them, giving us a blissful two and a half days of freedom to do whatever we wanted.

But…having Saturday by myself wouldn’t be all bad.

I could get a few things done around the house, run some errands.

It would be okay.

Right?

Lock must’ve realized something was wrong by the time we put our jet skis and the boat up, because he cornered me against the truck and looked down into my eyes.

“What is it?” he asked, his hands framing my face.

I licked my lips.

Then decided that I wouldn’t be going with subtle.

I was just going to tell him.

“Tomorrow is our anniversary,” I said. “And I had plans for Friday and Saturday.”

He frowned.

Then winced.

“Shit,” he said. “I’m sorry…but you didn’t tell me that we were doing anything.”

I narrowed my eyes.

“It’s our anniversary, Lock,” I growled. “I didn’t think I needed to tell you that we were doing anything.”

He dropped his forehead to mine.

“I’m sorry,” he apologized. “I…I forgot.”
