CHAPTER 10

Mia

“It seems you two have made up,” my mom comments as she walks into the room.

“We have,” I say. “Though you don’t look too happy about it.”

Mom sighs, her frown slowly disappearing. “No. I’m happy if you are.” I know she’s just saying that and doesn’t actually mean it.

“Killian and I have agreed to have two weddings. One at the venue I picked out and one at the hospital for his mom.”

Killian places his arm around my shoulders, making me feel like I’m on cloud nine. Our kiss is still making my lips tingle. A part of me can’t believe he’s actually into me, but I’m telling myself to start believing.

“All right, then,” Mom says. “I’ll attend the one you want.” She looks directly at me as she speaks. “But I won’t be attending Killian’s. I don’t agree with my daughter getting married in a hospital.”

My heart deflates. “You won’t be there for it?”

“No.” She doesn’t offer any more explanation.

With a sigh, I turn to Killian. “Thanks for coming here to talk to me, but I think you should go. I need to talk to my mom alone.”

“All right.” He kisses my head. The way he does it so nonchalantly sends butterflies straight to my stomach. “I’ll see you later.”

Once he leaves, I turn to my mom. “What’s going on?”

“What?” she asks innocently, but I know it’s a bunch of bull.

“Mom, come on. Talk to me. Why are you so opposed to me marrying in the hospital? As I said, we’ll still have the wedding I want.”

“I know. But, Mia, I had to keep my opinions to myself for years when Franco was here. I’m done staying quiet. If I don’t approve of something, I’ll make it known. If this is what makes you happy, then so be it. I’ll be happy for you. But I don’t have to pretend I like it when I don’t. Take it or leave it.”

I want to scream at my mom to tell her to support me, but … I can’t. She has a point. She’s allowed to feel how she feels. And given what she went through with Franco, I can’t blame her for putting herself first now.

“Well, Killian and I will get married first at the hospital. I want to make sure his mom is still around for it. I hope to see you there, but if I not, I understand.”

Mom doesn’t stop me as I leave the room, but I feel her eyes on me as I walk away.
