Sunday 4:03 p.m.

Me: Getting ready to take off.

Me: Ferris's plane is taking us home. It's incredible.

Me: Never flown private. We flew first class on the way, but since we're taking Daisy's dress back with us, we got the jet.

Me: Okay, so I'll stop rambling. Takeoffs always make me a little edgy.

Me: At least if something goes wrong, we won't starve. Bea brought half of what you sent this morning, in her bag.

Me: Powering down. XoXo

"I think that's everything," Bea huffs out after we lug all her camera equipment up the stairs to her studio.

"I would hurt someone for a latte right about now," I inform her, falling back onto the vintage sofa.

"What a weekend." She crashes down next to me. "Successful wedding, amazing venue, private plane, gourmet chocolate buffet for breakfast. Oh, yeah, and you screwing a wedding guest."

"Don't be a bitch." I smack her arm with as much strength as I can muster.

"Truth hurts," she teases. "All kidding aside, regardless of what happens with this guy, I'm glad to see you get back out there."

I grab her hand, holding it in mine, and we sit in silence, both probably thinking the same thing, but neither of us saying it. Bea knows everything that went down with my crazy ex. I was young and alone, still hurting from the loss of my parents and wanting to be loved. He seemed to have it all—a family, looks, popularity. But what I thought was love turned to jealousy. Then the jealousy turned to accusing, lying, cheating, fighting. Then came the obsessing, controlling, stalking.

Two years of living under his thumb, until Bea and I met and she saw him for what he was—saw me for who I really was and helped me break it off. Since then, I haven’t let anyone in.

"Enough Lifetime movie chitchat. We need to lock up and get home." She always jokes, but, deep down, she's a big softy.

"Carry me downstairs and the name calling will be forgiven," I negotiate.

"Yeah, it's not name calling if it's true. Last one down buys coffee!" She jumps up, and I race after her. Nothing to get me moving like the mention of free coffee.
