Epilogue

Emma

“Emma?” Elise called out to me from across the bridal suite. “Did you find the veil?”

“I think it’s still in the car,” I assured her. “I’ll grab it!”

“Wait, what’s wrong?” Sandy said from the bathroom.

“Nothing!” Elise and I replied in unison, not wanting to worry the young bride.

If anyone had told me a year ago that I would be a bridesmaid--again--but this time, in my cousin’s wedding to my ex-boyfriend...well, I would have told you that you were in-fucking-sane.

Yes, I said my cousin, Sandy, is getting married to my ex-boyfriend, Blake, today.

And I’m fully aware that this is a complete shit show and I’m getting a front row seat.

Did that sound mean?

I’m not trying to be. Honestly, I’m happy for Sandy that she’s found...the One. I don’t care that it’s Blake. That chapter of my life was over long ago. I feel absolutely nothing for him, and he can be with whoever he wants for all I care.

But that’s kind of the point.

He’s literally been with...whoever he wanted. Which would be fine if he were single, but for the last year, he’s been steadily dating my cousin. She’s fully aware of his affairs and straying, and people have warned her a hundred times over that he’s a piece of shit, but that doesn’t seem to matter to her. She’s repeated several times that she’s certain he’ll stop once they are married.

Fat chance.

Honestly, I just feel pity for her at this point. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned in my life, it’s that you can’t convince people to be who you want them to be or to do what you think they should do. People are going to make their own choices and there’s nothing I can do about that.

So, I decided to do the right thing and support my cousin when she asked me to be her bridesmaid.

Pulling the car keys out of my pocket, I clicked the unlock button and the car opened. Sure enough, the missing veil was in the backseat of the car. Luckily, we still had a few hours before the ceremony was going to start so we weren’t in a rush.

As I was walking back toward the venue, I felt my phone vibrating in my pocket. I pulled it out and clicked the answer button for the incoming call.

“Hey,” I said into the phone.

“Hey, beautiful.”

A grin spread across my face. “Hi, Dylan. Are you on your way?”

“Just taking the dog out one more time, but then I’ll head in your direction.”

“How’s Max?” I asked, referring to the dog we’d adopted together a few months into our relationship after I’d moved across the country and into Dylan’s house.

“He’s fine. Clearly misses you. He isn’t the only one.”

My heart swelled at the thought of my two guys back home. Life had changed more over the last year than I’d ever expected, but I couldn’t be happier with every moment of it. Being with Dylan made me feel filled. I felt whole and protected and cared for. He made me feel loved and wanted and like there was nothing I could do to change that.
