Aunt Rita turns out to be a sweet older lady who has a massive crush on Elias. I feel my heart warming as I watch him pour on the charm. The extra room Dan told us about ends up being a one-bedroom garage apartment behind Aunt Rita’s house. While I’m glad we have some privacy, I’m also terrified because we have too much privacy. I wonder if I’m afraid of what might happen between us in the Wedding Ring quilt-covered bed, or am I more afraid that it won’t? But Elias said nothing will happen tonight unless I want it to. I definitely want it to happen, but I’m still on the fence about it being the smartest decision.

I finish brushing my teeth with a new toothbrush I found in a drawer, pull on the nightgown Aunt Rita left for me, then step into the hallway. Elias has already taken off his shirt while waiting for me to finish in the bathroom. I look away quickly and feel my cheeks heating when he catches me gawking. He walks toward me with his tanned chest, broad shoulders, and an excellent display of hard, tight muscles to tempt me. I want to reach out and touch as he passes by, but instead, I dig my nails into my palms. “I’ll just be a minute,” he says as he leaves the room.

My lungs feel depleted of oxygen. I start toward the bed and nervously tuck my hair behind my ears. When the bathroom door clicks shut, I deflate like a giant balloon at the fair after the dart hits it. I sink down on the mattress and flop backward, spreading my arms out wide. I am in so much trouble. I grab my purse and pull my phone out to text Rachael.

April: We’re staying over.

Rachael: And…

April: There’s only one bed.

Rachael: And…

April: Rachael!

Rachael: Do you want to “share” the bed with Elias?

April: It wouldn’t be smart to “share” the bed with a client. Would it?

Rachael: Technically, he’s not your client.

April: That’s what he said. I need help here!

Rachael: Do you have condoms

April: What?

Rachael: Don’t worry. He probably has that covered. LOL!

April: This is a best friend fail. You’re supposed to tell me the many reasons why I shouldn’t do this.

Rachael: Do you like him?

April: Of course. He’s really nice and he has the gorgeous thing going on. But…I really like him.

What exactly am I afraid of? I’ve never had a one-night stand. But could sleeping with Elias be considered a one-night stand? I do already know him. But he’ll be leaving after the wedding, and I’ll never see him again. Is that what’s bothering me, that he’ll be gone in a few days? Or that I’ll only be a memory to him?

Rachael: I can hear you overthinking everything from here. Don’t make it difficult. He’s hot. Do him. Don’t bug me anymore. Henry and I are in the middle of binge-watching The Walking Dead.

I frown at the phone, turn it off, and toss it back in my bag.
