    Summary

    I wasn’t supposed to be at that wedding.

    The bride was crying in the bathroom. The groom had driven off with his ex. The venue was already paid for. The food was too good to waste. And me? I was just crashing on the upstairs guestroom for a few days while figuring out where to wander next.

    Then she walked in—like a hurricane in a business suit.

    Shoulders tense. Eyes tired. She looked like she hadn’t slept in days and hadn’t breathed in even longer. Like life had squeezed her dry and she’d finally walked out on it.

    She stopped right in front of me. No introduction. No hesitation.

    Just—
    "Let’s get married," she said.

    I stared at her.
    She didn’t even blink.

    Maybe it was the wine. Maybe it was the universe.
    Maybe I liked the way her chaos looked nothing like mine.

    I smiled.

    "Okay."
