Chapter Five

The sunrise on the day of their wedding was beautiful, and Owen knew that because he couldn’t sleep. He’d eased from the warmth of Cary’s side, not wanting his tossing and turning to wake him, and sat looking over the dunes to the ocean, sipping coffee on the deck of the beachfront vacation rental his parents had surprised them with for part of their wedding gift. They’d booked it for the week, starting the day before yesterday. So they’d hosted an impromptu almost all-night poker party two nights ago in lieu of a bachelor party and had let most of the out-of-town guys crash there since there were five bedrooms.

Last night had been the rehearsal and dinner, which Cary’s mom had arranged at a local restaurant. Thankfully, they’d had a much earlier night and everyone had returned to their own hotels and homes at a reasonable time.

Owen smiled into his mug as he thought back to the night before. Some wedding traditions he enjoyed, but he was fervently glad that he and Cary were in agreement that being separate the night before the wedding ceremony was a stupid one. They’d made slow love into the night and relished every moment together before falling asleep in each other’s arms.

Perfect start to the most important day of their lives.

“More coffee?”

Owen turned and raised his eyebrows at the sight of Cary, wrapped in a blanket and carrying the carafe of coffee. “Good morning. You’re up early. Sure—I’ll take some more.” He held out a hand to take the carafe and grinned when he saw that Cary also had an empty mug for himself hooked on his pinkie finger. He took that too then set them down on the table before tugging Cary into his arms, sprawling partially on his lap. “Couldn’t sleep? You didn’t have one of your nightmares, did you?”

“No, thank God. Just a lot going through my head,” Cary admitted and shifted around until he was leaning against Owen with the blanket over both of them.

“Don’t worry about today. We have a kazillion people on our side who will help the day go smoothly. Besides—I’m kind of hoping something goes wrong.”

Cary stared at him, mouth agape. “What the hell is wrong with you? You’re tempting fate and you’re going to jinx us! Why would you say that?”

Owen laughed. “It’s the little hiccups that you remember, not everything being perfect. I mean, I don’t want the roof to collapse or a SWAT raid on the reception or anything, but a couple memorable mistakes would be cool.”

“You are so weird,” Cary muttered as he topped off Owen’s mug and filled his own. “I can’t believe I’m marrying you.”

“Me either,” Owen said softly and bent to kiss him.
