CHAPTER FIFTY

G unner……

Ellie was in heaven with Grams in the kitchen Saturday morning. My heart was racing just watching her learn everything Grams was teaching her about how to cook the perfect Turkey as well as how to make a homemade pumpkin pie.

I walked down to the stable to find Jeff saddling up Fire Star.

“You’re going for a ride?”

“Yeah, I think I’m going to head out and clear my head. Maybe take a ride and check out that property again.”

I nodded my head. I knew he was upset that Ari wasn’t there. When I asked Ellie about Ari she just smiled and winked at me. I didn’t even have the energy to ask what that wink meant.

“I still can’t believe you plan on buying that property dude. Have you given any more thought about your plans for it? You still thinking of going the way you were thinking?”

Jeff looked over at me and smiled. “Yep, it just feels right. I talked to Jake at the office and the fact that they are going to let me work part time will help out. I always thought you were crazy to give up the position Jake offered you just so you could come out here but the more time I spend out here the more I know, this is the life I want also.”

I nodded my head again. I had the strangest feeling in my stomach. I had been having it for the last week, almost like I was expecting something to go wrong. Things with Ellie were going great…almost too good. While everyone around us had so much drama in their relationships, Ellie and I didn’t, thank God. But still, something wasn’t right. The fact that I saw Ellie talking to Jon at the football game didn’t help matters either. That fucker clearly was not getting the message to stay away from her and for some reason; Ellie was too nice to him.

Fucker….

“I’m heading out for awhile. I’ll be in the north pasture.”

Jeff jumped up on Fire Star and gave me a smile. He had not had a beer for the last few days and I think he finally fucked all the girls in Austin he could. He had not gone out since the night of Ari’s party. Maybe things were about to turn around for him. I sure as shit hoped so. It was killing Ellie to see him being so upset over Ari. I saw him pull out his headphones and put them in.

“Have a good ride Jeff.”

“Thanks dude, later.”

I watched him ride off. I shook my head….I pray I never fuck up with Ellie. It would kill me if she was not in my life. I watched him ride until he turned around an oak tree and I couldn’t see him anymore. I turned to leave and got the shit scared out of me.

“Holy fucking shit Ari! You scared the shit out of me. What are you doing here?”

Ari just smiled as she was leaning up against the stables. She was dressed in jeans, boots a sweatshirt and a cowboy hat. I looked down at her hand looking for the ring but she had her left hand shoved into her pants pocket.

“Hi Gunner, nice to see you too asshole; and I told you I was planning on coming on out to the ranch this weekend.”

Something was up….she had a shit eating grin on her face. I kept looking down at her hand. Why didn’t she drive out with Ellie? Where was Jason? Jeff was going to flip out once he found out she was here.

“You’re thinking too much Gunner. You mind helping me saddle up a horse?”

“No, I don’t mind at all. You want to ride Chestnut again?”

“Who is Jeff on?”

I had to smile, damn this girl never ceased to amaze me. I shook my head as I walked over to the newest addition to the family. She was a beautiful paint horse who had a bit of spunk in her, fast as hell too and probably my favorite horse. Could be because Ellie name her Rose, said she loved the way she smelled. She smelled like a horse to me but who was I to argue.

“Jeff is on Fire Star. Rose here, she’s the horse you want. She’s a feisty five year old, has a mind of her own and sometimes she likes to just take over, push you to your limits. She tends to make you open your eyes and pay attention.”

Ari looked over and smiled at me. “Sounds like my kind of horse. Now let’s get her ready…I have a race to win.”

I stood there and watched Ari as she rode off on Rose. Ellie came up behind me and wrapped her arms around me. God she felt so fucking good. I was fighting the need to take her more and more. I was going to have to talk to her pretty soon to see where she was at with all of this. I needed her so fucking bad but the last thing I wanted to do was push her into sex. I was pretty sure she was feeling the same way.

“So you knew she was coming all along?”

“Yep!” Ellie said as she popped her P.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” I turned and hugged her close to me.

“I would have but she was not one hundred percent sure she was going to make it. She had a problem she was trying to deal with and he was not walking away as easy as she thought he would.”

I pulled back and looked down at Ellie and tilted my head with a questioning look.

“She said no?”

Ellie laughed. “Of course she said no!”

“When did she say no? That night? Was it after she heard Jeff say he loved her when we were outside?”

“She pretty much told Jason she needed some fresh air and came outside after us. She heard what Jefferson said and went back in and pulled Jason aside to her bedroom and told him she couldn’t marry him. He didn’t take it very well and was pretty pissed. Turns out that Jason knew Jefferson liked Ari all along. I guess Jefferson used to talk about her in high school. One night when he was drunk, he told Jason and a few other football players he was going to marry her someday! She broke it completely off with him yesterday and told him she loved Jefferson and could not see herself with anyone else but him. Happiest damn day of my life, I could not stand him!”

I let out a laugh and put my arm around her shoulder. “Let’s go for a walk.”

Ellie and I walked and talked for what seemed like forever. It was so nice to just have time to do nothing but talk to her. Usually one of us was running to class, the library, practice, the gym or some other bullshit. We sat underneath a red oak and just talked about everything.

“Gunner, what’s going to happen when you graduate? You’ll be moving out here and I’ll still be in Austin. I thought the last two and half months were bad….that is going to be hell!”

I knew she had been worried about what would happen after graduation, but I had a plan to help ease her mind. I just couldn’t tell her yet.

“Don’t worry baby. I’m not moving out here full time right away. I have some other things I need to work out first and I’ll be working at the firm pretty much full time this summer I think.”

Ellie turned and looked at me with a strange look on her face.

“You didn’t tell me you were working there full time this summer! That is awesome!”

She leaned back into me and we sat there not saying another word. I wish I could tell her my main reason for not moving out to the ranch full time right away but……I wasn’t ready. The last thing I wanted to do was scare her away for good.

CHAPTER FIFTY ONE

J eff……

I sat under the same Oak tree I was sitting under the day Ari and I got stuck out here. Fire Star was walking around eating as much grass as he could. Hopefully nothing spooked him and he ran off because I had my iPod on and wouldn’t be able to hear it if he did.

Daughtry’s “Life After You” was playing. I had it on repeat pretty much since the day I destroyed any kind of future with Ari. I closed my eyes and leaned my head back against the oak. I started to picture her up against the jeep. The sound of her calling out my name, the look on her face when she told me she loved me.

FUCK!

God….would I ever be able to get over her. My fucking heart was tired of hurting. I pretty much tried to fuck her out of my head but I even sucked at that. If only I could go back in time to that day under this tree. I would do so many things differently. I would tell her how much I loved her and wanted her. It was too late.

She was getting married…..

Just then I felt something hit my boot. I opened my eyes and had to close them again and rub them. Was I seeing things? Ari was standing in front of me with her hands on her hips. She was smiling down at me. My heart started to pound so hard I could hear it. What was she doing here? How did she even know where I was? What makes me even think she was looking for me.

“Are you just going to sit there and stare at me Jeff? Maybe you’re trying to think of a way to get out of our rematch race?”

Wait…..what did she just say? I shook my head and pulled out my headphones. I couldn’t move my body. I just sat there looking up at her.

“Wh…..what are you doing here?”

She threw her head back and started to laugh. Next thing I knew she was moving closer to me and started to walk with her legs straddling mine. She took off her hat and tossed it to the ground. Holy Fuck she was beautiful. She fell down onto the ground and was on her knees looking right at me.

OH HOLY FUCKING SHIT…..don’t sit on me…please don’t sit on me…….

“I came for our rematch race Jeff. Don’t you remember the other day on my birthday you promised me a rematch.” She licked her lips as she looked down at my mouth. I had never in my life wanted to kiss her more than I did at this very moment. Why was she here though? She was getting married to someone else.

I looked down at her left hand and didn’t see a ring. I snapped my head back up at her and she let the sexiest fucking smile I had ever seen spread across her face.

“I…I um….I thought you wouldn’t be here Ari because you were getting married so….I guess I just thought……I just thought…..” Fuck I couldn’t think enough to form any fucking words. She was inches away from crotch and I was getting harder by the second with the heat coming from her body. Why was she doing this to me? Payback maybe?

She looked down at her left hand and shrugged as she held it up for me to see. Then she did it…..she fucking sat down on me. She raised her eyebrows up at me when she felt my erection. Fucking dick of mine…..sold me the fuck out. She rocked her hips just enough to drive me fucking crazy as she let out a small moan. She smiled as she looked at me.

“I don’t see a ring on my finger Jeff. You see I’m not getting married, at least not right now, and certainly not to Jason.”

Oh god, all I wanted to do was take her and make love to her right here right now.

“Why?”

She looked at me and shook her head while she kept that damn smile that drove me insane on her face. “I couldn’t marry him when I was in love with someone else.” She wiggled again against my dick.

My heart was going to fucking explode it was beating so strong and fast…..please God….please let her say she loved me still.

I smiled back at her. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever put my eyes on.

“Anyone I know?”

She reached up and cupped my face with her hands. She licked her fucking lips again as she looked down at my mouth again. She moved closer to me and lightly brushed her lips against mine. I felt a tremble move through my whole body. Then she did it again, but this time she kept her lips barely on mine.

“I always have been and always will be, in love with you Jefferson. Always.”

I closed my eyes when I felt them burning with the threat of tears. I loved this girl so fucking much. I didn’t deserve her love. I slowly opened them to see her staring at me.

“Ari baby, I’ve done some awful things the last two months. Things that I’m so ashamed of and, if I could take it all back….take back the day we stood here and I pushed you away…..you have to believe me when I say I would do it in a heartbeat baby. I……I…..”

“Jeff, I’m going to ask you once and then I never want to talk about any of it ever again. I need you to be one hundred percent honest with me okay?”

“YES! You can ask me anything Ari; I will never lie to you ever!”

She closed her eyes for a few seconds and when she opened them she had tears building up. FUCK! I can’t believe how badly I’ve hurt this girl. I was going to have to get Gunner to punch me again, maybe a few times.

“When you were…..when you were with all of those girls….” She had to clear her throat and pause for a second. FUCK!

“What were you thinking about when you were with those girls Jeff? What were you trying to do?”

I sat there stunned. I can’t believe she was asking me about my two months of man whoring. I didn’t even care that I felt a tear rolling down my face. I needed to be honest with her. I needed to let her know what the fuck was going through my head.

“Ari…” My voice cracked and now it was my turn to clear my throat. “I was trying to erase you from my mind, from my heart baby. It was the only way I could think of to get over you but it didn’t work. No matter what girl I was with, I just prayed to god she would be the one to get you out of my head, but it never worked. It never worked because I was so ashamed of what I was doing I ended up closing my eyes and pretending it was you I was with. I completely tuned them out and just….I just fantasized I was making loving to you, not fucking some girl I had just met at a bar.”

Ari had tears rolling down her face. FUCK ME! I was hurting her all over again. I hated myself….I fucking hated myself. If she found it in her heart to forgive me I would spend the rest of my life making it up to her I promised myself right then.

“Did you use protection Jeff?”

“ALWAYS!”

“Did you feel anything for any of them?”

“Nothing…..”

“Do you promise me you’re done fucking around?”

“I never want to touch another girl again my entire life!”

Ari raised an eyebrow up at me and tilted her head. I reached up and wiped the tears away from her face as she gave me a smile that if I had been standing up I would have fallen to the ground.

“You sure about that last statement you must made Jeff?”

“YES! Of course I’m sure.”

She started to giggle and was getting ready to stand up. I pulled her back down and held her there.

“Wait…where’re you going?”

“Well, considering you just said you never wanted to touch another girl again in your life, I figured you wanted me to get off your lap!”

I smiled at her and pulled her lips to mine and kissed her. She let out a moan against my lips and I deepened the kiss. It was probably one of the most powerful kisses I’ve ever felt. Her love felt like it was rushing through my veins.

I pulled back away from her and waited for her to open her eyes.

“You’re not just some girl Ari. You’re the only woman I have ever loved and I will spend the rest of my life proving that to you squirt.”

Ari let out a laugh as she tossed her head back.

“Well holy fucking shit Johnson…..I think we’re in for the ride of our lives then! But I have a deal breaker.” She said as she looked over my whole body. I shivered from her intense stare.

“A deal breaker, anything…..just name it!”

“Okay………you’re gonna to have to stop playing “Truck Yeah” every goddamn time we all get in your truck.”

What?

“ELLIE! She put you up to this didn’t she, that little traitor sister of mine!”

Ari laughed as she bent down to kiss me. Just then I heard “You Save Me” by Kenny Chesney coming from my ear phones. I had to smile. Perfect fucking song. We sat there for another few minutes and just kissed each other senseless. In those few minutes of kissing the woman of my dreams, I had never in my life felt so at peace and so loved by another person.

“I love you Arianna Katherine Peterson…….so fucking much.”

“I love you Jefferson Michael Johnson. Now, let’s get the hell back on our horses. I have goddamn race to win!”

CHAPTER FIFTY TWO

E llie……

Emma, Ari and I spent most of the afternoon cleaning up and packing up food from our Thanksgiving Day feast. The guys all went out to the porch and I heard Garrett saying something about a Jess person bringing in a new horse. Ari’s eyes lit up at that. Anything to do with horses and she was on board.

“Girls, why don’t y’all head on down to the main stable and check out the new filly that just came in.”

“How old is she Emma?” Ari asked as she took off the apron she had tied around her. She had been smiling from head to toe ever since she and Jefferson came back from their ride yesterday.  I guess they worked things out because he could not keep his hands off her and she was the same way. Emma had to tell them to mind their manners at least five times during dinner.

“She’s three and she’s a beauty. Jefferson actually bought her for his new place.” Ari and I both snapped our heads around and looked at Emma. She realized her mistake the moment it came out of her mouth.

“Wait, what new place Emma? Why is Jefferson buying a horse?” I asked Emma.

“You mean he has not told you yet?” Ari said in a stunned voice.

“No….I have no idea what either one of you is talking about!”

Emma shook her head and looked back to the sink where she was putting away the last of the dishes. “It ain’t my place to tell you Jefferson’s news Ellie.”

Ari started to laugh. “Well it sure is shit is mine now! Jeff is buying two hundred and fifty acres of land that butts up to the north side of the Mathews ranch.”

WHAT? Why would he not tell me this and more importantly HOW!?

“How in the hell, oh sorry Emma, how in the heck can he afford to buy a two hundred fifty acre piece of land?”

Ari shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. I knew Jeff worked during the year after football season but that was only during the spring semester. Then I remembered my car! How did he afford to buy my car….with cash. Now he is buying horses? Something did not add up! No intern at an architectural firm could make that much money. I know he said he had money left over from our grandmother and he was a good saver but come on. I was getting to the bottom of this right now.

I spun on my heels and made a beeline for the stables. Ari was right on my heels. I didn’t talk the whole way there; I had too many things running through my mind. OMG…what if he was selling drugs?!

“Stop thinking so much Ellie! Christ! I can hear your damn brain working in over time now. Just give Jeff a chance to tell you. Don’t go running in and start accusing him of selling drugs or something.”

Shit….how did she know that’s what I had been thinking? Did I say it out loud by mistake? We turned the corner and I saw Drake, Aaron, Jefferson, Gunner and……a girl?

She was probably my height and weight but she was dressed in super tight ass Wrangler jeans, cowboy boots and a tight Navy Blue t-shirt. What the fuck?

Gunner and Aaron were both talking to her and she was throwing her head back laughing at something Gunner had just said. I immediately didn’t like her. I didn’t know who she was, but I knew I did not like her one bit.

“Jesus, Mary and Joseph who the fuck is the tramp dressed as a cowgirl?” Ari said as she looked her up and down. Jefferson’s eyes lit up like a Christmas tree when he saw Ari. He looked over at me and smiled as he walked up to me.

“Ells I wanted to wait until it was all final but it looks like this week it will be so….Um, yeah I bought some land out here. It butts up to the north pasture of the Mathews ranch. It’s about two hundred and fifty acres.” He then looked over to Ari and smiled even bigger. “I bought it hoping to turn it into a horse ranch, and I bought my first filly today. She’s yours baby. Whatever you want to name her Ari, she is all yours.”

Ari looked stunned. I had never in my life seen Ari stunned into silence….EVER…..in all the years I had known here. She just stared at Jeff and I noticed his smile starting to falter. I looked back at Ari and she had a tear rolling down her face. Next thing I knew she was jumping into Jeff’s arms and wrapping her legs around his waist.

“OH MY GOD!!! You bought me a horse?! OH MY GOD!” Jeff started laughing as he walked over to the filly while Ari was kissing him all over like mad.

“Jesus get a fucking hotel room would you!” Gunner called out as he looked over at me and winked. He then turned his attention to miss bleached blonde tight ass jeans wearing fake ass tits cowgirl. She gave him a quick hug….HUH?......and then turned to hug Aaron. Old friend? Cousin? Who was this girl?

“Hey sweetheart, want to see the filly, she is a beauty.”

“I’m pretty sure I already got a look at her.” Gunner gave me a confused look and looked back toward the horse. Stupid ass…..

”Sure, let’s go meet Ari’s new horse.” I said as I just shook my head.

For the rest of the night no one brought up miss bleached blonde tight ass jeans wearing fake ass tits cowgirl so neither did I. It was almost like she was never there. I did corner Jeff about how in the hell he was able to buy all this shit. Turns out he took a part of the money we received from our grandmother and invested it. I guess it has been doing pretty well. He had some set aside for a car and school for me and some left over if I ever wanted to use it for a wedding.

A wedding? Okay. I wasn’t planning on that for a while. Gunner’s whole body tensed up when I laughed about needing the money for a wedding. I thought it was weird but I was still pissed about miss tight pants to care right now what Gunner was thinking.

The next morning I got up to Ari already up and gone. Gesh, second day in a row she had hightailed it out first thing in the morning. I was beginning to think that she and Jeff were sneaking off to make out or something. EEEWWW….I didn’t need that visual at all just now. Not first damn thing in the morning. I shook my head to erase the image from my mind.

I threw on a pair of sweatpants and a UT football sweat shirt. It felt like the cold front had moved through. I went down into the kitchen. 9:30? What the hell?! Why did everyone let me sleep in so late? And where the hell was everyone?

I walked out onto the front porch to see Emma and Garrett in a deep conversation. They stopped the moment I walked out.

“Oh excuse me I didn’t mean to interrupt you.” I said as I started to head back into the house.

“Nonsense Ellie darling, you could never interrupt us. Are you looking for Drew honey?”

I nodded my head and smiled.

“I believe he walked down to the barn a little bit ago. He was going to feed the horses.”

“Oh….okay great….um thanks I’ll go um track him down.” Why was I stammering over my words?

I headed down to the main stable and I heard voices. I turned the corner to see her…..leaning up against the barn and Gunner was leaning next to her with his arm resting up against a stall. She was smiling and laughing at something he said. I instantly had the same feelings I had when I came across Ryan. I just stood there. Finally Gunner looked up. He gave me that drop my panties crooked smile of his and dropped his arm and started to walk towards me. I was frozen. Why was he down here alone with this girl? I looked over at her and she was giving me a dirty look and then smiled a smirky smile at me.

I don’t know why I did it but I turned and walked away. “Ellie?” Gunner called for me. As soon as I turned the corner out of their view I took off running. I had no idea where the hell I was going but I was running as fast as I could.

“ELLIE STOP!” Gunner shouted. I knew I would never be able to out run him. FUCK! He runs every damn day. I ran up to the tank and had to put my hands on my knees and lean over.

OH SHIT…I needed to start working out again. I was trying to suck in air but my lungs felt like they were closed up.

“What the fuck Ellie? What are you doing running away like that?”

Have. To. Catch. My. Breath!

I stood up and tried to rub out the cramp I was now getting on my side. Holy fuck….I think I needed to start running……..okay maybe walking and then work my way up to running. Oh my god I was rambling my own fucking thoughts now.

Gunner walked up and pulled me around to look at him.

“What was that about? Why did you run off?”

Once I got my breath back I just let go. I was tired, cranky, stressed out from school, never seeing Gunner enough, sitting and having to watch endless girls swoon all over his ass….and now this. He is down in the barn looking like he was about to kiss some bleached blonde tight…oh fuck it……BITCH cowgirl.

“Oh I’m sorry Gunner. It’s just that it looked like you two needed a private moment to finish whatever it is you were about to start!”

“What? Ellie what are you talking about.”

“Go fuck yourself ok. You let me sleep in this morning so you could spend some time with tight jean wearing who ever the fuck she is bleached blonde. You sure looked cozy with each other. I would say her name but funny thing is you never introduced her to me yesterday….especially after she gave you a nice long good bye hug…….Fuck this.”

I started to walk away but fuck…I still had the cramp in my side. FUCK ME!

“Ellie don’t walk away from me. Stop for just one goddamn minute.”

“I’m going home.”

I watched as he threw his hands in his hair and then pulled them down over his face.

“Baby please stop…..I can’t do this Ellie. All we do is argue anymore and you keep getting pissed at me and I have no fucking clue as to why. So you saw me talking to Jess, she is Drake’s daughter. We all grew up together. Fuck she is like a little sister to me Ellie. I was not about to kiss her or do anything else with her for that matter. I love you! Damn it Ellie! Why can’t you see that I love you….I only want you.”

You wi ll never be wanted by anyone…….

“SHIT! When will her voice get out of my fucking head!”

“Who’s voice Ellie?”

I did it again. I turned around and saw the hurt in Gunner’s eyes. Why was I having such a trust issue with him lately? I really didn’t think they looked like they were about to kiss so why did I run off like that?

I felt sick to my stomach and just sat down and started to cry. Gunner was over and down on his knees in two seconds flat.

“ELLIE! What’s wrong? Do you feel sick?”

I just threw myself into him. He wrapped his arms around me and then sat down and brought me onto his lap. He was stoking my back and just kept saying it was alright. It wasn’t all right though.

“Gunner, I don’t know what’s wrong with me! I keep waiting for the floor to fall out from beneath me. I’m so tired of school already, I’m stressed out, my mother won’t stop calling me, you’re hardly ever around and when I do get to see you I have to watch girls throw themselves at you….I’m just waiting for you to get sick of me and leave.” I started sobbing.

“Sweetheart I’m so so sorry. I didn’t know your mom had been calling you. I wish you would have told me or Jeff. I know school is rough baby; you took way to many classes Ells. Football is almost over baby and we can be together more often. It’s all going to work out. You need to talk to me Ellie, we can’t keep fighting over little shit that means nothing okay?”

I nodded my head and looked up at him. His blue eyes caught mine and I sucked in a breath from the smoldering look he was giving me. He slowly started to pull me down and leaned me back on the grass and started to kiss me.

After I came back down to earth Gunner leaned in against my ear and whispered to me.

“Another first baby! Orgasm next to the tank.”

I let out a laugh and looked at his beautiful smile. Maybe everything really was going to be ok.

December……

“I cannot believe you’re getting married Amanda. What the fuck? Don’t you think this is a bit too soon?” Ari said for the fifth time since we picked Amanda up at her apartment.

“Ari, I’m madly in love with Brad and he is madly in love with me. We want to get married as soon as possible so no, I don’t think it is too soon.

“Y’all just got engaged just over two weeks ago for Christ sakes!” Ari said shaking her head.

Brad had asked Amanda to marry him on Thanksgiving right in front of his whole family. She of course said yes and they immediately started planning a Valentine’s Day wedding.  Classes were out for the semester and I finally felt like I could relax. When Amanda called and asked if we could go check out the Driskill Hotel we jumped at the chance to go and do something different.

Jeff was with Brad helping him fix something on his father’s boat and Gunner was planning on meeting his cousin Shannon’s fiancé James, who was flying in a day earlier than Shannon to catch up with Gunner. I guess Shannon and James were high school sweethearts and he went out to the ranch often. Gunner had not seen either of them in a few years. They were getting married that weekend.

“Okay ladies. So here is the drill. We’re going to look at two different ball rooms. I’m trying to keep this small but I have a feeling Brad’s mother is going to give me an invite list a mile long. So keep that in mind. I’m thinking no more than three hundred people.

“THREE HUNDRED PEOPLE!” Ari and I both said at the same time with equal amount of shock in our voices.

“I know…..I would like to keep it at one hundred fifty and that’s my goal but not sure the future monster in law feels the same way. So just keep reminding me that while we’re looking. You’re my bridesmaids…..this is your job.”

I had to giggle because Amanda was the type of girl who would have just ran off to Vegas to get married but Brad’s mother…..she was something else. It shouldn’t take her long to figure out that Amanda was not going to put up with her shit.

We toured a few different banquet halls and I knew Ari was just as bored as I was. I was in charge of note taking and I swear to god if Amanda says “Did you write that down Ellie?” one more fucking time to me I am going to jam the notebook up her ass!

ARGH, the dude giving us the tour was a stick in the mud..….he was an older gentleman and he just kept talking about servers, bartenders, chairs, linens, votive candles, china, silverware, flutes, dance floors….OH MY GOD! I couldn’t take it anymore! Ari had walked ahead and was peaking in the doors to the kitchen.

We walked over and he was talking about catering …..

“Ellie, did you get that written down?” I just looked at her.

“Yes. Yes I did……” I said with a forced smile.

I saw Ari walking up to another door that led to the hotel rooms, that is what I wanted to see! I heard they were super romantic and Brad was planning on staying the night at the hotel before they flew out to Barbados. Just then I heard Ari suck in a deep breath of air.
