“Bestie!” Ari called as he dragged me towards them. I thought he was going in for a hug with Lincoln, but at the last second, he did a weird little dip and dive, and then he was squeezing Monroe in a big bear hug.
“Ari!” Lincoln hissed. “For the billionth time. Get your fucking hands off her!”
“I’m just showing my appreciation for my BFF,” Ari said innocently.
“SHE IS NOT YOUR BFF! SHE IS MINE!”
Monroe and I were hysterically laughing, me so hard that tears were gathering in my eyes. Ari finally let Monroe go and shot me a wink before ambling back to my side.
“You’re right. My bestie’s right here,” he said, before dipping me backwards and sliding a Hollywood worthy kiss on my lips.
The world was slightly spinning when he stood me back up.
“Hey Blake!” Lincoln said with a bemused smirk as Monroe gave me an excited side hug, oohing and awwing over my dress.
“You look stunning, Blake. Absolutely incredible,” she squealed, and I blushed…because I definitely had a new girl crush.
I stammered out a response, not sure how to act normally around her. She was so nice. I’d never had a nice friend in my life. Someone who meant it when they complimented you.
“Hi,” said Walker as he strode up to us. He looked dashing in his tux, and I could definitely see where Ari’s whole “Disney” schtick had come from. The guy really was Prince Charming come to life.
The three of them standing this close to me was overwhelming.
I glanced at Monroe and she mouthed “HOT” to me. I giggled and nodded emphatically. Suddenly she was smashed against Lincoln’s chest.
“Who’s hot?” he asked, lifting an eyebrow at her.
Lincoln was intense. Like scary sexy intense. And he and Monroe together…I felt pregnant just watching them.
“Who’s hot?” Ari said in a deep voice as he pulled me close and mocked Lincoln. Lincoln rolled his eyes, but a smirk graced his lips.
Walker was staring at all of us, really looking like a kid at Disneyland.
“Walker, my little simp. I’m glad you could make it,” Ari said, releasing a hand to give him one of those manly fist bumps.
Walker sighed, rubbing a hand down his face. “Ari, for the last time—”
“Ari said you’d made it into the “circle of trust,” Lincoln cut in, and Walker’s harried expression immediately changed to blissful excitement.
He really was a simp. An adorable one though.
I glanced at Ari, looking like every woman’s wet dream as he stood there in a tux that had been molded to his body.
I didn’t blame Walker. Ari was worship worthy.
“So there really is one?” Walker asked eagerly.
Lincoln and Ari started to lead us away towards the tables.
“Nope,” Lincoln called over his shoulder. “But you can be in it if we ever make one.”
Ari and Lincoln both snickered as Walker followed us to our table.
We sat down, and a minute later, a pretty redhead with half her boobs out popped up next to Walker, making him jump.
“I’ve been looking all over for you!” she cried in what was clearly a fake falsetto voice.
I’d been wondering why Walker didn’t have a date, but I guess this answered it; he’d been trying to hide from her.
