Just as I slipped my foot into the second sandal, there was a knock at the door.

“The grooms are growing anxious,” Kristian informed us, looking like a feast for the eyes in a pair of fawn pants and a white linen shirt with a purple orchid pinned to the pocket. “There, uh, might be some heavy drinking involved too.” He looked a little sheepish adding that last part.

“You can’t be serious,” Jasmine snapped, excusing herself while telling the rest of us to stay put.

Kristian stepped into the room and let out a low whistle. “Looking good, ladies.”

I smiled at him as I straightened up, both sandals now on my feet. I was wearing a cream wraparound dress that had pink printed flowers on it that matched the flowers in my hair. I felt like a movie star as it flowed around my body. I also felt like shit because as the alcohol wore off, my jaw ached, along with my brain.

“Are they both drunk or just one?” Alesha asked, slipping her earrings in.

Kristian took her in appreciatively. He licked his lips, then wiped a hand over his face. “Both.”

“Champagne?” I asked, fighting a smile while feeling glad I wasn’t the only one who took in a little too much liquid courage.

“And rum.” He grinned, and I noticed he had a slight dimple. Cute.

My smile only broadened. “Can they stand up?”

“They’ll be fine.”

“Cartwrights can hold their liquor,” Abbot added, crossing his arms as he gave me a pointed look.

“You’re talking like I threw up everywhere,” I retorted.

“What did happen to you?” Kristian asked. “Half your face is swollen.”

When my eyes met Abbot’s, I didn’t find warning in them, so I didn’t think he’d hold it against me if I told the truth. But I chose to lie anyway. Snitches get stitches. “Too much champagne. I slipped.”

By the way he and Abbot looked at each other then stood up a little straighter, I knew Kristian didn’t believe me.

“Should we go?” Alesha piped up, grabbing our matching bouquets and handing mine to me. “The longer we stand around here, the drunker they’ll be, right? Might as well get this done before anyone else falls over.” With her lips pursed, she aimed that last part at me.

“Lead the way?” I said to Kristian at the door.

He held his arm out for me to take. “My pleasure, gorgeous. Let’s get you and your golden cunt hitched.”

My eyes widened at the crass comment, but I didn’t dare question the reason for it. I already knew what he meant.
