Chapter Nine

ZACH got back to Chrissy’s house at half past four with three vaguely familiar guys in tow, all of them joking and slapping each other on the back as they walked inside. A sense of dread came over Aaron as they approached, but shook it off and stood up from the couch where he and Tyler were watching a movie on Tyler’s laptop.

“Hey, you’re here!” Zach greeted them enthusiastically. “That’s perfect. Aaron, Ty, these are my half of the wedding party. This is—”

“Dude, no, I’ve got this.” One of them shouldered his way to the front—it wasn’t easy. He had a pretty big expanse of shoulder to make room for. Couple that with a height that rivaled Tyler’s and the beginnings of a substantial beer gut, and he was easily the biggest guy in the room. “You’re the gay brother, right?” he asked, smirking at Aaron.

“Owen, come on—”

“Yeah,” Aaron said flatly. “That’s me.”

“Great.” He turned to Tyler. “And you’re the gay brother’s gay boyfriend, right?”

“Queer as the day is long,” Tyler drawled before Aaron could correct anyone. “And you’re the big gay best friend, I take it?”

Owen shook his head. “Bro, this isn’t a chick flick. There are no gay best friends.”

“Then you must be the bumbling sidekick?”

Owen was frowning now. “I’m the guy with the badass plans for tonight, so if we could get the getting-to-know-yous out of the way, maybe we could get this guy—” He slapped Zach’s back hard enough to rock him forward. “—on his way to being totally wasted! Call me O-Dog.”

Tyler’s brow crinkled with mock-uncertainty. “What’s that? O-ring?”

“O-dawg, dude,” Owen said with a frown. “What, fairies can’t hear now?”

Zach hit him on the arm, his expression flinty. “Owen, seriously, knock it the fuck off.”

Owen rolled his eyes. “Fine. Ruin my goddamn fun first thing. You can be GB and GBFF, because you’re BFFs, right? Gays have those, yeah?” He turned to the next guy without pausing. “This is Simon. He was a state champion wrestler in high school and he’s built like a goddamn gorilla, so he’s gonna be Monkey tonight.” The guy—shorter than Aaron but probably twice as broad—looked at Owen like he was a few screws loose but didn’t do anything but shrug.

“And this guy,” Owen went on, pointing at the slender man whose hair was starting to thin, “is Matthew, otherwise known as Becky’s charity case. He fucks cars, so we’ll call him Scooter.”

“I don’t fuck cars. I fuck girls in cars!” he protested.

“Bro, last time you told me about it sounded more like you were rubbing up against leather than inside pussy, y’know what I’m saying?” Owen waved Matthew’s complaint aside and focused on Zach again. “And since this guy is the one giving up all his freedom forever and ever, even if it is to a good woman, we’re gonna call him Jailbait. He’s got that look, yeah?” Owen grinned over at Aaron. “Admit it, if he wasn’t your brother and you saw him in a bar, you’d totally wanna do him.
