Hanging up, he called his mother, and clued her into what he needed.
Oh, and Fiona loved a few things in her life. Her husband, her kids, grandbabies, and a good wedding. Talking her into it was easy.
She rallied the troops, and said she’d get them there to help out.
Now that he’d handled that, he headed back to find Michael, and when he did, the man was naked except for his kilt skirt that was being wrapped around his body.
“Oh, good. I missed the unveiling. It’s bad luck for the bride’s best friend to see the naked Marine before the wedding,” he joked.
Michael laughed.
“There’s a lot of nudity in Scotland. Imagine my surprise when I found out you guys really go commando under the kilt.”
Well, yeah.
It was a nice breeze, and it made access a whole lot easier. When your lass was around, who wanted to mess with a fly and all that jazz?
“You’ve got guns, and we have naked asses. We aren’t the same,” he joked.
They weren’t.
“Is it all set?”
He nodded.
“My mother and sisters will decorate the courtyard. It’ll be simple, but when you lure Graham out there, he’ll be shocked as shit. I guarantee he’ll cry. He loves a good romantic gesture.”
Michael was aware.
When they’d been a couple years ago, he’d always caught him off guard with flowers, or something to make him feel loved.
And he’d make sure their quickie wedding felt like it was important.
Because it was.
This was the ONLY time he’d get married.
“While you’re finishing up here, I’m going to call the judge, and we’ll escort him back to the estate. He’s always asking about the castle, so I’ll bet he’d pay us to let him see it.”
Michael held out his hand.
“Thank you.”
He took it, and then he was hugged again, but this time, he was ready for it.
“He’s my brother, and now, so are you. Take good care of him,” Finn stated.
Michael nodded.
“Don’t worry. I absolutely will. You can bet on that. I’m going to make him the happiest man in the world.”
So, for Finn, that was all that mattered. If the man kept his word, this would be worth it.
Graham needed something to go right in his life, and once he was married, Finn suspected he’d be in good hands.
Call it a hunch.
When Michael’s phone chimed, he glanced over at Finn.
