I give him a deadpan look. “Noah, don’t fuck with me.”
His face breaks out in a wide smile as he pats me on the shoulder. “I’m kidding, man. Of course I’ve got the rings.”
“Good.”
He blows out a breath as he helps me straighten my tie. “I can’t believe you’re getting hitched.”
I smirk.If only you knew.
“I know. Been waiting for this day for far too long.”
“And you’re absolutely sure you wanna go through with this? I can have the car ready to go in seconds, just say the word,” he says in a teasing way that lets me know he doesn’t mean that.
I laugh. “I’m absolutely sure.”
Noah nods, tucking my tie into my jacket and patting me on the chest. “Good man.”
There’s a knock on the door and it cracks open, my sister poking her head in. “How’s it going in here?”
“Good. How is she?” I ask, walking to the door and pulling it open to let her in.
“She’s good. She was in the bathroom when I left.” Bella gives me an excited smile. “Not long now.”
I take a deep breath and stuff my hands into my pockets, my nerves getting the better of me. “I know.”
She steps toward me and wraps her arms around me in a tight hug. “I’m so happy for you, Killian.”
I return her embrace. “Thanks, Bells.”
She pulls back and looks up at me, her face serious. “You take care of her, ya hear?”
I fight a smirk as I nod. “I promise.”
“Good.” Bella takes a step back, smoothing her hands down her pale-yellow bridesmaid dress. “You boys look great.”
“So do you, Babybell. Love that colour on you,” Noah says, stepping forward. His cheeks are pink as his eyes roam her body in a way they definitely shouldn’t, and I frown at the side of his head.
“Dude.”
“What?” He looks at me in confusion. “She looks beautiful.”
“She looks like my sister, fuckhead. Put your tongue back in.”
Noah just rolls his eyes at me. “Whatever, man.” He turns his attention back to Bella. “Seriously, you look stunning, Bells.”
Is he fucking for real right now?
Is he hitting on my fucking sister?
Bella blushes before wishing me good luck and closing the door and I whirl on my best friend. “Were you just hitting on my fucking sister?”
“What? No,” he answers far too quickly and far too loudly.
“What did I tell you about my sister, Noah?”
He holds his hands up defensively. “I know she’s off-limits. Chill out.”
“She’s off-limits toyou.”I point a finger at his face and then at his dick.“I know exactly where your dick’s been.”
