Replacing Me Took A Hundred Days

Summary

Lauren was allergic to romance.

Ever since we got together, anniversaries were just another square on the calendar. I did my thing, she did hers. So on our seventh anniversary, when my phone stayed silent all day, I didn’t think twice about it. I was used to the quiet.

But when she came home that night, she did something completely out of character. She handed me a small, wrapped box.

I froze for a couple of seconds, my eyes instantly stinging with a sudden, ridiculous warmth. The stubborn, practical woman I loved had finally turned a corner.
