"DID YOU SEE HOW FAR that bouquet went?” I asked as Riley rucked up my wedding dress, and with as much dignity as I could muster, I sat down.

Neither of us looked at one another as she chatted away. “Got a hell of an arm on you, woman. But what I want to know is did you see Ella’s face when it landed in her lap?”

“Is that why she bolted out of the tent so fast?” I asked, keeping my eyes rolled toward the ceiling.

“Probably. You must have missed the toss off too,” Riley answered.

I couldn’t help but look at Riley. “Toss off?”

Her eyes were crinkled at the corner. A healthy flush rode on her cheeks like banners. “Oh, yeah, she tossed that sucker right into Airen’s lap and dashed.”

I went quiet for all of about five seconds, thinking about Ella’s reaction. I could see the startled look on her face and the bouquet being dumped in Airen’s lap. How odd some people were about weddings. The bouquet toss. The garter toss. Brides with dresses so big they couldn’t do much by themselves except stand and look pretty. And then I busted out laughing. “Never thought you’d be holding my dress up while I went to the bathroom.”

“First and last time for everything, I suppose.” She chuckled, hauling me up to my feet.

As I washed my hands, I watched her in the mirror. She tucked in a few stray hairs caught up by the breeze between the tent and the house.

“True friendship knows no bounds… well, some bounds, I suppose. I’m not wiping your backside. You have a husband who can do it for you now.” She laughed.

Hearing the words ‘you have a husband’ threw me a little. Yes, I’d stood in front of Jared and said my vows. Listened when Mark said his. Wiped tears of utter happiness from my cheeks as they flooded my vision, startling me that I could cry while being so euphoric. But hearing it? It took on a whole new meaning to me. Mark wasn’t just my friend, or my boyfriend, anymore. He was my husband. We were forever linked for the rest of our lives. There would be no separating us. On that, we both agreed. Realizing how long forever might stretch out made me feel both lightheaded and a tad freaked out.

“Are you okay?” Riley asked, catching me by the elbow as I stumbled backward.

I lied. “I think I need to eat.”

Her eyes met mine in the mirror. “Nice try, but I know you better.”

I blinked, hoping when I opened my eyes again, there would be no sign of my inner thoughts.

“It’s okay to freak out a little. I did,” she said, perfectly in tune with my own thoughts.

“How the hell do you do that?” I asked, disbelief lacing my voice.

She smirked. “You do it too. It’s something about being perceptive, I think. You know that it’s okay to be a little overwhelmed.”

I sighed, hands running down the satin front of my dress, reveling at the feel of the slippery material.
