I wasn’t really sure what to expect when we basically gave Joey free rein to plan our elopement in Vegas. Hell, I wasn’t even sure what I wanted in terms of a wedding. In all truth, I’d have been happy with one of those drive-thru chapels she forbade the second we announced a wedding.

I didn’t care about the details. I only wanted him to be mine.

We knew the location of the wedding of course, the size, the casual feel… but when the limo pulled up to the Aria, I realized something. As I stared through the tinted windows, I realized it did matter where we said our vows, only because something that was so beautiful to me should take place in a beautiful place.

And man, this place was amazing. And this was just the outside.

Joey was sitting against the leather seat beside me, her long, tan legs crossed over the other, with a wicked-looking pair of shoes strapped to her feet.

“This place look as impressive on the inside?” I asked.

“It’s better,” she mused. “But you aren’t getting married inside.”

My brow wrinkled. I glanced around. “Okay, maybe I should have asked for more details.”

She grinned, the wicked curve to her mouth matching her shoes. “Too late now.”

The driver opened the door for us. Gamble, who was sitting opposite me, went first. “I’ll meet you inside.”

He was gone before I could even nod. Joey and I looked at each other, neither of us making a move to exit the limo.

I cleared my throat. I was bad at this stuff. Instead of speaking, I reached between us and linked our hands. “Thanks for everything, Joey. For not giving up on me even when I gave you every reason to.”

“Family doesn’t give up on each other.”

“Thank you for considering me family.”

She smiled, squeezing my hand. “Always, Jay.”

“You’re my best friend. My only friend until recent months,” I admitted.

Her eyes glistened. “You’re my best friend, too.”

“I know I’ve let you down.” I began. Why I chose this moment to bring up all the shit with the hazing, what happened to her under my management, and how we ended up not speaking for a while I wasn’t sure. I just knew I needed to get it out before I got married. Suddenly, she felt like the final loose end in my life. I couldn’t have any loose ends anymore. I was tying a bow.

“We haven’t talked about that because we don’t need to,” she said gently, turning a little more toward me. “I was too stubborn and proud to tell anyone, and you were too lost in your own head to see.”

“I should have been there.”

“You were there. I just pushed everyone away. You know about that.”

I made a sound. “I do.”

“Everything turned out the way it should have. I’m happy. You’re happy. And we get to be family forever.”

Wrapping my arms around her, I pulled her close for a hug. “If you ever need anything, anything at all, come to me. I’m here for you.”

Pulling back, she sniffled.
