Chapter 20

"Everything okay in there? Masyn didn't seem very happy when we were leaving."

Peyton didn't have a clue what was going on, although I couldn't really speculate myself. "I'm sure she's fine. I don't know what her deal was tonight. It's been a weird day all around."

"Are you surprised Beau wasn't more upset?"

"About?"

She laughed, and I drove. "My guess is this isn't how he envisioned his wedding night going."

"You're right, this was a hell of a lot better." Thankfully, she felt the same way about her sister that we did. "But to answer your question, no. Beau was a mess when I got to his parents' house this morning. I think he's relieved at this point." I wasn't sure any of this had really hit him, either. Right now, he felt relief, but that didn't mean over the next few days he wouldn't crash into a pit of despair, cradling a beer in one hand and Felicity's picture in the other.
