Scott walked up and reached out his hand toward me. I stood up and shook it. He reached for Gunner’s hand. “Hey, Gun. ”
“What’s up Scott?” Gunner said with a wink.
“Hey, Scott. Listen, I’m really glad you’re gonna make it to the wedding,” Josh said, standing with a smile.
Scott grinned and looked at Heather and then back at Josh. “You know it, dude. Oh, I’ve been meaning to tell you that the office furniture you made me is great. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. I also gave out your phone number to a few people. ”
Josh nodded. “I really appreciate that. ”
“You’re very talented, Josh. I see you going really far with this. ” He looked at Heather and gave her a big smile. “Congratulations. I heard you’re having twins. ”
Heather smiled and blushed.
“So, who all is heading to the beach for the wedding?” Scott asked.
“It’ll mostly be just family and friends along with a few business associates that I’ve known since my dad ran the business. ”
“Is Jenny helping to plan it?” Scott asked.
When I looked over at Gunner, he smiled and winked at me. We both knew where this was going.
Heather smiled. “Yes! She’s amazing. I mean, only Jen could put together a wedding in just a few short weeks. ”
“An out-of-town wedding to top it off!” Josh said with a laugh.
Scott smiled. “So…is Jessie going to be there?”
Heather perked up a bit as she snapped her head over toward Ellie.
“Yep, Dewey also,” Heather said.
Brad and Amanda came back to the table as I noticed Josh walking away.
“Hey, Scott. Damn, man, it’s been a long time. ”
“Hey, Brad. Shit, it has been. How are you doing?”
Brad looked over at Amanda and put his hand on her stomach. “Pretty damn good!”
Scott glanced at Amanda’s pregnant belly and laughed. “I’d say so. ”
Brad and Scott talked for a bit as I looked around for Josh. He was talking and laughing with the DJ.
Ah, so the little bastard is going to have his hand in the romance department this evening.
Gunner reached up and handed Scott a beer as Scott sat down.
Then, Gunner turned to me. He leaned in toward me, so only I could hear him. “Does he think he stands a chance?” Gunner looked out at Josh.
I laughed. “I guess he does. This should be interesting to watch. ”
Gunner and I both sat back and started to drink our beers as we watched Josh talking to the DJ.
“He’s probably asking the DJ to recommend a good song,” Gunner said with a chuckle.
Brad sat down as he started laughing. “Think so? This is gonna be good. Gotta give him props for trying though. I think I have both of y’all beat with my song. ”
Gunner and I both looked at Brad as he smiled and took a sip of his Coke.
