Finding You (Love Wanted in Texas 4)

Narrowing my eye, I shot daggers at him.

Alex hit me on the chest and said, “Stop it, Noah. I see it all over your face and Jeff didn’t do this. Y’all have just had a series of misfortunes.”

Glancing back at Alex, I said, “Misfortunes? Alex, this is a fucking nightmare.”

Turning away from Alex and Grayson, I paced back and forth. What could I do to fix this? I wasn’t about to let our wedding day go down like this. Not without a fight.

Stopping, I let a small smile play across my face. Turning to Alex and Will, I said, “I need to run to Wild Flower.”

Alex pulled her head back in shock and asked, “Why?”

Giving her a wink, I started walking backward. “Don’t tell Grace about the honeymoon just yet. Make sure Colt

has the pastor secure and set. Will, Gray . . . I need y’all to come with me. I’m going to need help.”

Will glanced over to Alex and shrugged his shoulders as Grayson followed me. “I guess we’ll be back in a few”, Will said as he kissed Alex quickly on the lips.

Making my way to my truck, Grayson grabbed my arm. “Dude, do you have plan?”

Smiling, I nodded my head. “I have a plan.” Will walked up next to me as I looked over at him. “Will, I need you to go to my house. In my office closet is a guitar case. I need you to get it and bring it back here. Grayson and I are going to get some things from the nursery.”

Will gave me wide smile as he asked, “A guitar case?”

Nodding my head, I said, “Yep. That’s what I said.”

“Okay, I’m on it,” Will said as he took off jogging over to his truck.

Grayson and I walked up to my truck and got in. Starting my truck, he asked, “Noah, dude, your wedding day is falling to shit and you’ve got Will getting a guitar and we’re headed to a damn flower store. Please tell me you haven’t lost your mind.”

Turning to Grayson, I gave him a serious look. “I haven’t lost my mind, Gray. I’m giving my bride to be the only thing she said she ever needed.”

Grayson stared at me for a few seconds before a smile spread from ear to ear. “Holy shit. Dude, you have a determined look on your face.”

Pressing on the gas, I looked straight and said, “Grace is going to have the best damn wedding day even if it kills me.”

Letting out a laugh, Grayson let out a hell yeah as we drove toward the nursery.

Grace

“What do you mean, Noah left?” I asked as I stood there staring at Alex.

“He said he had to go take care of something really quick and he’d be back. Grace, let’s just get your dress on.”

Falling back onto the bed, I didn’t even care if my hair got messed up. It was half up and half down. No one would ever know the difference.

“Why?” I said as I squeezed my eyes shut. “My wedding day is falling apart before my very eyes and there is nothing I can do about it. Nothing.”

“Bullshit,” Meagan said as I opened my eyes and leaned up on my elbows.

“What did you say, Meg?” I asked as I narrowed my eye at her.

Giving me a smirk smile, Meagan flopped on the chair from my desk and said, “You heard me. If that was me sitting on that bed, you’d be telling me to get my damn ass up and make the most of it. Well, I’m telling you, it’s bullshit that you’re giving up on your wedding day. Noah isn’t.”

My mouth hung open as I stared at her. “He’s not even here! He left!” I shouted as Alex jumped with Taylor over at the window. “What?” I asked, jumping up and pushing them out of the way. All I saw was Libby with the baby. It looked like she was directing someone over to the altar.

I let out a frustrated exhale and went to turn away from the window when I saw Noah and Grayson carrying a bench from Wild Flower. Tilting my head, I whispered, “What in the hell is he doing? Does he plan on napping or something?”

Alex spun around and pushed me away from the window, causing me to stumble backward. Trying to catch myself, I moved at an awkward angle and twisted my foot and went down hard.
