Everyone let out a gasp.

“Oh my god! Oh my god!” Ari said as she sat up straighter.

“What did you say?” Ellie asked.

“Well, at first, I was shocked. I mean, that’s a huge step. I asked him if he was sure we were ready for that, and he just busted out and said, ‘Jessica, I love you. All I want to do is spend every waking moment with you. ’ And I started crying. I told him…yes!”

“Did you tell him you loved him back?” Amanda asked.

“Yes! I told him I loved him, too, and that I couldn’t imagine my life without him in it. ”

Ari and Ellie got up and started jumping up and down, which caused Jeff and Josh to do the same thing. Scott turned, looked straight at Jessie, and smiled. I could see the love in his eyes when he looked at her.

“Y’all don’t think it’s too soon? My father does. He wants me to get my own place. ”

“No! It’s not too soon at all. You both love each other, and this way, you will get to see each other more often. Plus, that damn house needs a woman’s touch for Christ’s sake,” Ari said before she downed another beer.

Ellie laughed. “Ari, you’re on your way to getting drunk. ”

“Fuck yeah, I am!”

After another hour passed, I watched as Gunner, Jeff, Josh, and Scott all got plastered. Brad was the only one who wasn’t drinking. The plan was for all of us to just crash at Ellie and Gunner’s place, but Brad had told Amanda he felt like one of them should stay in control.

Gunner and Josh had made a dance floor, and Ari and Jeff were cutting up to Shania Twain’s “If You Wanna Touch Her, Ask. ”

Then, “Buttons” by The Pussycat Dolls started playing. I grabbed my drunk husband and led him out to the dance floor. When we started moving together, I felt when his dick instantly got hard. As he moved his hands up and down my body, I ached to feel him inside me.

He leaned down and moved his lips up against ear. “I want you so fucking bad. Let’s sneak away, baby. ”

I smiled at him as I took his hand. I started to lead him away, but then I saw Sharon and Grace walking up to Ellie. The expressions on their faces gave me chills.

Something’s wrong.

I turned and smiled at Josh. “Baby, hold on to that thought for just one second. I think something’s wrong. ”

I glanced back up to Ellie and Jessie. As I headed over to the back porch, Josh followed me. I got to Ellie right when Sharon put her hand on Ellie’s shoulder.

Ellie turned t

o them. “Oh my god. Alex. ”

Grace shook her head. “No, sweetheart, Alex is fine. Jenny is playing with her in the house right now. ”

Confused, Ellie glanced between the two of them. “What’s wrong? The look on your faces is scaring me. ”

Grace looked out at Gunner. “Ellie, how much has Gunner had to drink?”

Ellie snapped her head over to Gunner as tears began building in her eyes. She looked back to Grace. “A lot. ”

Grace was trying so hard not to cry.

Sharon grabbed Ellie’s hands. “Baby girl, listen to me, okay? Something has happened. ”

Ellie started to cry as she looked up at Grace. “Jack?”

“Jack is fine, sweetheart. It’s…it’s…” Grace couldn’t finish her sentence.

Sharon took a deep breath as I put my arm around Ellie. My heart was beating so fast that I could hear it.
