“I hate you, too…” I held her taut until she stopped shaking.
We stared at our reflection for several minutes, letting the silence settle between us.
I yanked off her panties and stuffed them into my pocket. Then I smoothed her dress into place.
“That never happened.” She spoke first. “Do you agree?”
No.“Sure.”
“Because I’m seeing someone, right?”
“Right.”
“Well…” She moved to the door and opened it. “I hope to never see you at any of my weddings again, Asher Brooks.”
“Likewise, Katie Elizabeth.”
“Goodbye.”
I said nothing, letting her have the last word before she finally left.
Thankfully, we didn’t have any run-ins for several months after that…

ASHER
Subject: Special Update from the Brooks Wedding!
Dear Beautiful Family and Friends,
After much consideration, we’ve decided to host our respective bachelor and bachelorette parties in Punta Cana, which means…our special event will now be three weeks long!
We understand that this is a gargantuan ask, but it’s our WEDDING, and it would mean the most to us if you could make it.
We will cover all additional travel and lodging accommodations as promised.
With love,
The future Mr. & Mrs. Brooks.
P.S.As word of our engagement has hit the press, please send any articles you find our way so we can include them on our “Wishing Us Well” glass wall that will stand in the reception hall. (Katie Elizabeth has, again, blown us away with her amazing ideas!)
P.P.S.Here’s an early itinerary with activities for all three weeks. We’ve named it “The Best Wedding Activities Ever” because we know that’s exactly what it will be!
They’re out of their goddamn minds…

You can’t have my entire month of April, Michelle.
