I pushed the apartment door open with my butt and backed in, setting my stuff down once I’d cleared the entryway. When I looked up, Fiona was standing in the kitchen eating a bowl of cereal.

“Oh my god,” she said, the spoon half way suspended to her mouth.

“What?”

“I take it you had a nice time?”

“What makes you say that?” I asked, walking towards the kitchen counter.

“The look on your face is priceless.”

“What look?”

“I’ve never seen you look so smug or pleased with yourself for as long as I’ve known you.”

I set my to-go cake on the counter. “I am pleased.”

“Is it safe to say you and Aiden made up?”

“Oh we made up.”

She dropped her shoulders.

“Over and over again.”

“Tell me everything,” she said, crunching a dripping bite of Honeycombs.

“Well, first he was kind of standoffish, ya know-”

“Cause he was still pissed.”

“Yeah.”

“Even though it’s really me he should’ve been pissed at.”

“About that, apparently you’re not forgiven.”

Her face dropped.

“I’m just kidding-”

She shook her head. “Not funny.”

“I think he’s over it,” I said. “Though Chelsea did crash the wedding.”

“She didn’t.”

“She did. Just rolled up like what are you doing here, bitch?!”

Fiona’s mouth fell open.

“She didn’t say that out loud though. Just with her eyes.”

“I bet.”
