Thank God Ellie is here at this ball with me. How she does several of these a month with Owen and his company I’ll never know.

I’m thankful to all the people for giving money to Oakside, but these people are just so boring. They don’t want to talk about Oakside or the barn. They just want to talk about their new fancy cars, or the house they just bought, or renovations on their mansions.

I had a great day with Lexi and Ellie in Savannah, getting our nails done and dress shopping. Ellie insisted on paying for my dress, and she had this grand explanation of how she made Lexi invite me, so she has to buy the dress. After she went on for five solid minutes about it, I wasn’t sure what else to say, so I gave in, just so she would stop.

I’m finally able to break away from the group that’s comparing their cars, and if they should upgrade from last year’s model to this year’s when I head straight to the bar for a glass of wine. Owen got us a limo for the night, so we don’t have to worry about driving. At this moment, I understand why.

Moving towards an out of the way wall, I grab a meatball on a stick that they’re passing around and just watch everyone. Ellie and Owen are talking to another couple, laughing and smiling. He never moves from her and is always touching her. His hand is either on her back, or her hand is on his arm, or they’re holding hands. It’s wonderful to see, and I love she has found someone like that.

My eyes track Lexi and Noah on the other side of the room. Couple after couple comes up to talk to them, and Noah looks uncomfortable around all these people with his scars out for everyone to see, but Lexi is right there beside him. Every few minutes, she looks up at him and smiles, or leans up to kiss him. She can’t seem to keep her hands off of him, which seems to calm him.

“I thought the whole point of this was to be out there mingling?” A voice says beside me. A voice I know very well.

“Before I went back out there, I needed a breather. I turn and smile at Teddy. “What are you doing here?”

“Noah and Owen thought it would be good for me to get out of Oakside, surprise you, and help talk Oakside up. This is the closest thing to a date I can give you right now, so I said yes.”

Now, I’m the one smiling at my guy, and it feels perfect. I lean up and kiss him, causing him to smile against my lips.

“I guess I should be getting used to these types of affairs, anyway. Any tips?” He asks.

It’s the first hint at the company and his role there. I decide not to harp on it and just let the comment pass.

“Talk about whatever fancy car you have or are going to buy, or your fancy house, and you’ll fit right in.
