Chastity pretended to gag.
“Stop it. I need you to pull it together and be my maid of honor.” I changed the date on the save the date and printed out a new one for Chastity. I handed it to her. “Change of date. So...yes for the maid of honor thing?”
“Not for this sham of a marriage.”
“Chastity! Single Girl Rule #38: Being a maid of honor is the most sacred duty in a woman’s life.”
Chastity stared at me. “No, that’s rule #39. Single Girl Rule #38 is: Every girl deserves a big cock on her birthday, which I already gave you during your birthday weekend girls’ trip!”
Did she? I still didn’t remember anything about that weekend except for the gif I’d seen of me blowing some photographer on the street... “Whatever! Single Girl Rule #39 then. I’m forcing you to be my maid of honor. You can’t go against the rules.”
“Girl, you’re madly in love with Tanner. I know he messed up and disappeared for a month...but that doesn’t change how you feel.”
“He’s dead to me.”
“Dramatic much?”
“I don’t understand why you can’t be happy for me.”
“Because you’re in love with Tanner...”
“Would you stop saying that? I’m not in love with Tanner!”
Chastity looked like she wanted to shake me awake. “You were in love with Tanner the moment you first saw him. You were completely infatuated. Which is why you stalked him for months...”
“Hestalkedme. Period. He’s a crazy stalker and he...he...smells of soot and poo.”
Chastity shook her head. “No he smells like whatever Nigel bathes him in. Some kind of intoxicating musky soap. Nigel smells of it too.”
“Nigel doesn’t bathe him. Or maybe he does. Maybe they’re gay together. Who knows? I don’t. And I don’t care. Because they’reboth dead to me.” I hated everything I was saying, but I needed her to stop talking about me loving Tanner or Ghazi wouldn’t believe I loved Mr. Frost. I just needed her to go along with this, damn it! “And if you don’t agree to be my maid of honor right this second, you’ll be dead to me too, you whore.”
“Whoa. Aggressive much? #MicksAreAgressive. Fine. Whatever. I’ll be your maid of honor. Obviously. I would never break a Single Girl Rule. But this discussion isn’t over.”
“Yes it is. I’m very busy.” I started printing out more save the dates.
“Stop printing those.”
“No.”
She tried to reach over to delete the file, but I swatted her hand away.
“Ash, please. You hate Mr. Frost. He’s the literal worst. He’s a demon in a suit.”
“A sexy demon in a suit.”
Chastity made a grossed out face. “He might have tight little ass and a big dick, but evil is still evil.”
“Well his cookie cum is delicious. And I get to gobble that up for the rest of my life. Yay marriage.”
“I just feel like you’re about to make a terrible mistake. This feels like Joe all over again. I didn’t interfere enough then becauseyou said you were happy. But I wish I had. And I’m not making that same mistake a second time.”
“Please do.”
“Are you high? Is that it? Did someone drug you? Was it that grandma lady?”
“My grandma would never.” It was strange how quickly I adopted other people’s relations. First Jacob. Now Grandma. I reached toward the print button again. As soon as this wedding was over, I could hang out with my grandson again.
“Print as many of those as you want,” said Chastity. “This wedding isn’t happening.”
