I sit on my couch with my feet propped up on the coffee table next to the sealed annulment paperwork. I’ve been sitting here staring at the envelope for hours, but for some reason, I just can’t bring myself to open it and sign the papers.

It’s absurd. The whole thing has had me so worked up that my stomach is in knots, and I keep getting hit with the worst waves of nausea. I’ve already ran to the bathroom twice today, thinking I would puke.

If I’d just sign those damn papers and get this thing over with, I’d feel better. And yet…instead, I sit and stare.

I’ve never been the type of girl who dreamed about what her wedding would be like one day. My Mum and Dad are split up, but she was still always the one to constantly put on the pressure about finding “a nice man” before “my biological clock ran out,” probably more so for her own desire for grandchildren than anything that had to do with me.

But for my lack of expectations, I certainly never thought I’d be the type to get married at random without even remembering it happening. Eloping—maybe. Or even a quiet destination wedding on some quaint little coast with just me and my groom and our closest friends. I never wanted the big fairytale wedding with fireworks and a 100-tier-wedding cake. And even then, those distant fantasies were always with an air of—maybe, someday, later (basically, when I haven’t slept with my boss and my career is in shambles).

I always had something bigger on my plate to worry about than dating or finding “the one.” And now it seems all of that has led to a husband falling in my lap without me even asking for it. I went to bed one night fully prepared to go back to London in six months and carry on with my career, and woke up the next day with an American husband and a ring on my finger. I didn’t exactly find the one, but I found someone.

I know. There’s no denying that Joel is exactly the kind of guy you would want this to happen with. He has the panty-melting badass biker attitude, enough to make a nun go weak in the knees (and other places), but then he has the massive bank account balance and stability of being a CEO to round him out. He’s tall and handsome, a great, phenomenal kisser, and hands-down—the best sex of my life. To top it all off—his assets aren’t too shabby, either. Is he even real? I mean, think about it. He’s hot, rich, and has a nice ding-a-ling, too? And knows how to use it? What the hell?

And while him being my boss does complicate things, he’s never once made me feel like my position at Embry Gear hinges on anything happening between us. No girl ever expects or dreams for this kind of thing to happen…but if it had to happen, I couldn’t have picked a better man to accidentally marry.
