Despite being on time, they had to wait for over an hour. Sara grinned at Luke. “Should’ve taken bets on this, too. I could have got out of cooking for another three weeks.”

Luke winked, despite his obvious anxiety about hanging around for too long. “Good thing you like my cooking.”

“At least I’m out of the house. I hate being cooped up all the time. I can’t settle for a piece of sky. I want to see something different. Like the beach. Please, can we go home that way? Vary the route, that’s what the cops on TV do.”

“What is it with you and beaches? Was beach your first word by any chance?”

“You know, I think it might have been.”

“Mrs. Nemec.”

Sara got up and followed the nurse, Luke walking with her into the doctor’s office. Sara was terrified and hoped it didn’t show. She set her hands in her lap, twisting Luke’s ring on her finger.

Luke slipped his hand over hers and squeezed it. Sara glanced up at him. He knows how scared I am. The question is, is he just acting or is that really a hint of concern I see in his eyes?

She turned her attention to Dr. Anderson as he smiled at her. “It’s good news, Mrs. Nemec. Yer leg has healed completely.”

“Completely? So I can lose the splint?”

“Aye, ye can lose the splint.”

Sara’s smile turned into a grin. “Good.”

Luke hugged her tightly. “That’s great, hon.”

Sara hugged him back. “It means you no longer have to carry me up and down the stairs.”

“Unless you want me to.” He winked at her.

Sara turned back to the doctor as he spoke again. “Ye’ll need tae take it easy for a few days. No marathons or dancing at parties.”

“Don’t worry about that, Doc,” Luke said.

Sara shot him a quick glance. “No, there’s no chance of that because my husband won’t let me.”
