“Goodnight, beautiful.”
“Night, Luke.” I hit the end button and dropped my phone on my bed.

“I don't understand what happened?” I stood, looking at Chris who was standing in the doorway to my office trying to explain.
“Someone will have to get a panel from the other job. This one is already a week behind, and we can't wait to get another one made.”
“I'll go.” I said grabbing my keys from the desk.
“I’ll ride with you.” He offered. “Might need someone to throw a little muscle around with the foreman. He can be kinda stubborn.”
“I sent John a text. He’s going to head over to assess the damage. We’ll meet him there,” I told Chris.
It was almost four, and I knew that meant I wasn't going to be home in time for dinner, so I shot Luke a text letting him know that I would see him Sunday.
Can't make dinner had a disaster, I’m so sorry. :(

Everything Okay?
Luke
Afraid not. It’s a mess. I have to figure this out
and shuffle some work around to get a job completed
that was due last week. I'm am not a happy camper right now.
Emerson
Raincheck for Sunday then. We should be back around 3.
Luke
Perfect. I am so sorry. Miss you <3
Emerson.
Miss you too. Be safe. I’ll call you later.
Luke
I dropped my phone in the cup holder just as Chris closed the door to the truck.
“You have plans for tonight?”
“I was planning on having dinner with Luke, and they are leaving tomorrow for a competition, so I won't see him until Sunday.” I huffed out a breath making my displeasure known.
“They going up to Rocky Top?”
“I guess. I don't have their schedule with me.”
“I already qualified, so I can skip that one and stay here and help you get all of this under control.”
“It's okay if you need to go. All we need is to get this panel, and then I can head home and you can compete.” I looked over my shoulder to back out of the parking space.
