Faithful (Wanted 3)

Victoria started to leave, but then she stopped right in front of Heather and grinned. “I bet you’ve never even given him a blow job before, have you, Smeather?”

The next thing I knew, Heather reached back and then knocked the hell out of Victoria. Rebecca screamed and jumped out of the way. She looked at me like I was going to punch her. She stepped back and then took off for the restroom door.

Victoria grabbed her jaw and glared at Heather. “You bitch!”

Heather walked up to her and gave her a push, causing her to fall back into the sink. “If you ever so much as get within ten feet of me, Josh, or any of my friends…I’ll make sure I break your goddamn nose next time. ”

I stood there, stunned. I looked back at Ellie and Amanda. Ellie’s mouth was hanging open, and Amanda had a smile as big as the Texas sky. I looked back at Victoria.

“Don’t worry. I have no intentions of being anywhere near you or your crazy-ass friends!” Victoria started to walk off, and she made sure to stay as far away from Heather as she could.

The moment the restroom door shut, Heather grabbed her hand. “Oh my god! Oh holy shit! I think I broke my hand!”

Ellie went running over and looked at Heather’s hand. “Oh no. It’s swelling. Josh is going to kill us!” she said.

“Oh. My. God! I’m getting married in two days, and I just broke my hand!”

I walked over and turned on the cold water. “It’s okay, sweets. It’s your right hand. ” When I turned around with a wet paper towel, Ellie, Heather and Amanda were all staring at me. “What? It’s not like it’s her left hand for Christ’s sake. ”

When we walked out, Josh was making his way toward the restrooms. He took one look at Heather holding her hand, and he ran right up to her. “What happened?”

“Oh my god, Josh! I punched her! You would have been so proud of me. I threatened her, too!” Heather said proudly.

Josh looked like he was stunned. He glanced over at me, and I just shrugged my shoulders.

“I think she broke her hand, Josh. We need to get her to the hospital,” I said.

“Wait. Who did you punch?” Josh asked as Jeff, Gunner, and Brad walked up.

“Baby, are you okay?” Brad asked Amanda.

“Oh hell, I’ve never been better! Ari told off Rebecca and pushed her against the wall, and then Heather pulled out her inner bitch and knocked the hell out of Victoria. It was one of the best moments of my life. ”

I looked over at Jeff. The smile that spread across his face made the butterflies in my stomach take off. Shit, I want him so badly. I smiled and winked at him.

“My feisty mama!” Jeff walked up and grabbed me.

“Only you would get turned-on by that, Jeff,” Gunner said. He turned to Josh. “Do you want to leave and take Heather to the hospital in Fredericksburg?”

Josh smiled as he looked at Heather. She blushed as she started to laugh.

“My little Rocky!” Josh said. He kissed Heather, picked her up, and carried her out of the dance hall.

We all spent the rest of the night sitting at the Fredericksburg hospital while they X-rayed Heather’s hand. Heather quickly came down from her high when the idea of wearing a cast on her hand during her wedding hit her full force.

When Josh and Heather walked out, her hand was wrapped in just a bandage, and we all let out a sigh of relief.

“It’s just a bad sprain,” Josh said with a smile.

I glanced over toward Ellie, and we both laughed. It seemed like just yesterday when that had been Ellie.

Jeff stood up and walked over to Josh. He slapped him on the back. “Well, let’s get you two home and rested up. We’ve got a wedding in two days. ”

“Whose idea was it to go out tonight? I’m never going to be able to drive to South Padre Island tomorrow,” Brad said with a yawn.

“Brad, are y’all sure you want to stay at the hotel tonight? You can stay with Heather and me,” Josh said as he looked back at Heather and smiled.

“No, dude. We appreciate it, but I got my girl a nice room at the Inn on Barons Creek. ” Brad smiled at Amanda.
