“Did you grab the new container of wipes off of the dresser?” I ask.

Garrett pats the diaper bag over his shoulder. “Got ’em. You have his pacifier?”

Shoot. I forgot the pacifier.

Garrett’s already heading back to the bedroom. He’s read my expression—something that he is crazy good at—and is going to retrieve the pacifier.

I bounce Dylan in my arms. “Your daddy will get your pacie,” I coo. Dylan grins and gurgles back at me. “Your daddy’s good at remembering things, isn’t he?” I whisper. “Better than your mommy.”

Garrett emerges from the bedroom, pacifier in hand. He holds it up so that I can see. I smile.

“I think we’re ready,” he says.

We head for the door and Garrett reaches for the keys to my car. We step outside into the sun. It’s the perfect day for a picnic: sunshine, blue skies, and a lovely breeze.

Garrett locks the door, then leads the way down the stairs. He’s a sight to see: tall, dark and muscular, he’s wearing army green cargo pants, a tight, black T-shirt, and a black baseball hat. His athletic frame and muscular bulk make him look like a bodyguard or pro athlete, but his bad-boy look is completely thrown off by the pink, paisley diaper bag hooked over his shoulder.

I smile as I walk down the steps behind him.

He’s become SuperDad over the last few days, since he showed up on my apartment steps—getting up in the middle of the night to feed Dylan so that I could have the first full night of sleep that I’ve had in four months, running to the store for diapers when we ran out, making funny faces so that Dylan laughs.

We reach the car and Garrett opens the back door so that I can slide Dylan into his car seat. Then, Garrett opens the passenger door for me and puts the bag that’s carrying our picnic supplies on the floor. I’m buckling up as Garrett slides into the driver’s seat.

“Do you know where the park is?” I ask.

“I did a little bit of recon this morning,” he says with a grin.

“Okay, that’s another one I don’t know. Care to fill me in?”

“Recon, short for reconnaissance.” He starts up the car and looks over at me. “Exploring an area to gain information. When we were on missions, we’d do a lot of recon by foot or with drones. Since I don’t have a drone at my disposal, I used the internet.”

“Just to look up Myer’s park? It’s only a block down the road.”

“We’re not going to Myer’s park,” he says with a mysterious grin. “I found somewhere better.”

“Oh, you did?” I ask.

Garrett pulls out of the parking lot, and I settle back into my seat happily. It’s exciting, not knowing where we’re going. I watch the city fly past us, and within twenty minutes, we’re in an area I’ve never been to.

Soon, I see signs for a nature preserve. When we pull into the parking lot surrounded by grass, tall oak trees, and
