“Ian and Gryphen can handle the psychic without us. If we go to the doctor now, we can catch up later,” he offered.

IFeverything was fine.

She relented for him, and in hope that he wouldn’t hate her in the end.

“Okay, Fineas. We can do that, but I’m not missing the whole séance thing. I’ve never seen one, and I’m curious.”

Oh, Jaysus.

He crossed himself.

“My mother will turn in her grave if she hears that come from your mouth.”

She stared at him.

“Your mother is alive.”

He was to the point.

“She won’t be when you kill her with that statement andTHENshe turns in her grave.”

Gabby tried to hold onto hope.

“Can you handle this without us?” she asked Ian. “Because I can stay…”

He nodded and put his hand over hers on the table.

“We can, Gabs. Go make sure the baby is good, and we’ll regroup later. I’ll save you a seat at the séance where Finn’s mother dies.”

She laughed, and so did Finn.

“Some of the people at this table aren’t right in the head,” he admitted.

Both he and Gryphen pointed at the two people beside them.

That amused them.

Getting out of their seats, they held hands and walked away. When they were gone, a waitress headed over, and they ordered food.

They were both in the mood for fish and chips.

When she went to put in their order, Ian rested his head on Gryphen’s shoulder.

“Are you good?” Gryphen asked the man.

Ian nodded.

“I can’t wait to marry you here,” he offered. “That was a beautiful ceremony.”

Gryphen kissed him on the temple.

“It was. Ours is going to be breathtaking. I saw some of the things Elizabeth was planning. She’s going to blow everyone’s minds.”

Ian hoped so.

He sucked at planning a party. Oh, he could do the basics, but Elizabeth had a knack at making things memorable.

“She’s going to deck the halls, and blow your mind.”
