And I loved every second of it.

“Everett! Catch!”

My head whipped over just in time to see the love of my life catch a frisbee that had been chucked at his head.

“Lucas! Go long!” Everett exclaimed.

Lucas took off over the grass, lunging for the frisbee Everett launched before Cash was at his side. The four men played frisbee while we all set up the wine and the finger foods, and I got excited when I saw there was a massive blanket on the ground. The grass looked lush and comfortable, so after Ruby poured us each a glass of wine, Jessica and I settled down onto the blanket.

Then, she started checking her phone.

“Everything okay?” I asked.

“Yep. Just Bianca freaking out about something. Per usual.”

“Tell her she’ll be okay for a few hours by herself.”

“One step ahead of you,” she said, grinning.

“So, have the two of you picked a date for the wedding yet?” I asked.

“Well, we know we don’t want to do it in the summer. The two of us get too hot. We were thinking next fall possibly? But there’s a part of Lucas that wants a winter wedding, and I have a feeling he’ll try to convince me to do it this year.”

“A winter wedding? That’s, like, five months from now.”

“Tell me about it. I told him if he wanted a wedding this year, he’d be hiring a wedding planner. Because I wasn’t about to take all of that on in the span of a few months.”

“I don’t blame you one bit. Honestly? Even if you don’t get married this year, a wedding planner still sounds like a good plan,” I said.

“I don’t really know how to go about planning a wedding, to be honest. I mean, I’ve never been someone who cares about the difference between champagne and eggshell.”

“There’s a difference?”

“Apparently,” she said, shrugging.

“Well, do you at least have some sort of a theme for the wedding? What have you guys discussed, other than the time of year?”

“Lucas wants an outside wedding, which is why I think we’ll hold off until fall of next year. A winter wedding is beautiful, but it’s not one that supports an outside venue.”

“Obviously.”

“So, if we have a fall wedding, I was thinking about burnt orange, red, and yellow for the colors.”

“Oh my gosh, like the changing of the leaves. Jessica, that’s beautiful,” I said.

“I figured we could have the wedding outdoors while the leaves are changing so the colors all blend together and work. Then, we could have our reception indoors with a live band, an open bar, and some really good food.”

“So, you guys have really been talking about this.”

“Not about those details. The only things we have solidified are the possible outdoor wedding and the two times of the year we might want to have it. I’m spit balling based on what I would want for a fall wedding.”

“Have you thought about what you would do if you guys went with a winter wedding?”

“Pray it all comes together,” she said.

The two of us shared a laugh as we watched the guys toss the frisbee around. Everett kept winking at me and Lucas kept showing off his skills every time Jessica looked over there. And the beautiful thing was that Cayden kept calling them out on it. He kept yelling, “Stop flirting with the girls’ and “Jessica doesn’t give a shit about your frisbee-tackling skills!”

Cayden was a hoot. An absolute riot to be around.
