Chapter 25: The Big Day

Nyrissa entered the reception hall in a daze. Too many emotions and thoughts were going through her, not allowing her to focus on anything. As soon as she walked in the door, Ryan was right there to greet her.

His handsome face was drawn wide in a grin the instant he saw her.

"Good morning, sweetheart. Did you have a good night?" he asked in a knowing tone.

Nyrissa winced at his reminder of the phone call last night. After the second beer, everything had been just a blur. But Nyrissa could tell by her call log that she had spoken with them last night. Well, that, and Natalie's teasing comment about her passing out in the middle of the conversation with her fiancees.

"I think so," Nyrissa admitted truthfully. "But I have a horrendous headache, and I feel like there's sandpaper in my mouth."

"Well, there's always something to ruin a fun night of drinking," Quentin commented with a chuckle as he walked up behind Ryan.
