“Kendall—”
“And before you argue, it’s all-inclusive. Food, drinks, everything.”
I close my eyes and shake my head, even though she can’t see it. “You’re impossible.”
“That is correct. And I’ll buy the plane ticket for you if that would help get you there.”
“No. You’ve already done enough,” I tell her. “I’ll buy the plane ticket. I have some interviews this week, so I’m sure everything is going to be fine.”
“I know you’re lying about that too,” Kendall replies with a heavy sigh. “I hate seeing you so miserable because of that jackass!”
“It’s not all bad. At least I get to spend more time with Teddy while I search for a job. You know, whenever he’s not working.”
“Teddy. Right.” Kendall goes suspiciously quiet, which is never a good sign. “You could bring him with you, you know.”
“Bring him where?”
“To St. Christopher!”
“Oh. Um, I don’t think so. Theo doesn’t do weddings. Or vacations.”
“He lives at the beach!”
“True, but I’m not sure why since he works all the time. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him in anything other than a suit outside the house.”
“Well, why don’t you at least ask him to come for moral support?”
“I doubt he would take a whole week off work.”
“Then bring someone else. Anyone else, as long as you just get your ass there!” Kendall demands. “I’ll make sure Monty keeps Wyatt away from you as much as possible.”
“Thanks. We haven’t talked since…”
“Since the night he threw you out of the apartment?”
“He didn’t throw me out. I packed up and left without any objection from him.”
“Same thing,” Kendall says, making me smile because she always has my back.
“I don’t know if I’m ready to see him,” I admit.
“Then don’t.”
“Kind of hard to avoid him when he’ll be standing beside the groom.”
“You don’t have to make amends with him if you’re not ready. I still don’t know what led up to you two falling out so suddenly, but it must have been bad if you left in the middle of the night.”
“It was,” I agree. “But I think it was for the best.”
“If you say so,” Kendall replies. “Send me your flight details when you get it booked. I want it by the end of the week, or I’m buying you a ticket!” she adds before ending the call.
Honestly, I’ve been trying my best not to think about the wedding. I’m so happy for Kendall and Monty deciding to spend the rest of their lives together. It just makes me sad to think that I may not ever find the kind of love they have.
I thought Wyatt was the one.
Neither of us liked plans, preferring to go with the flow, to take risks and jump into things without overthinking them. That’s probably why I moved in with him after we had only been dating for a month.
It felt right at the time. Like we were two of a kind. Soulmates.
