“Just one glass to take the edge off,” Doc pleaded.
“You have even one glass on a near empty stomach and it’s gonna go straight to your eye sockets and you’re gonna blubber your vows,” Joni said, still on the bed. “You told me to remind you of that when we got to this point. So, here we are.”
“I can’t even pee in peace.” Doc glowered.
“Lift your skirt,” Joni demanded. “Prove to me you didn’t strap a flask to your thigh.”
“I will do no such thing,” Doc said. “I’m offended you’d even—”
Joni held out her hand.
Doc stared at her for a long moment and then with a sigh, she reached under her robe and extracted a flask. “It’s just Bailey’s. It doesn’t even count.”
She marched over to Joni and placed it in her palm, but then Darcy immediately filched it.
“It would just go to waste if you had it,” Darcy said. “I’ll take care of it. Willa will help.” She winked at me. “Right, Willa?”
“Definitely,” I agreed.
Darcy took a sip from the flask. “Damn, this is perfect.” She handed it to me and I did the same.
“Double fisting at a wedding,” I quipped. “I’m classy.”
The bedroom door opened and a beautiful brunette of average height strode inside. “I never thought in a million years that when I became a mother, I would talk about bodily fluids so much.”
I handed her the flask.
“What’s this?” she asked, taking it from me.
“Bailey’s.”
“Ah, perfect.” She took a sip.
“Willa, you know Rachel, right?” Mia asked.
“Yeah, we’ve met,” I said with a smile. “You left town around the time Duke and Savage got patched in.”
Rachel nodded. “Oh, that’s right. Hi, again.”
“She’s been living with her mom in Laramie, but she’s moving back to town,” Mia explained.
“Welcome back,” I said.
“Thanks,” Rachel said. “You, Duke and Savage are the inseparable trio, right?”
I nodded.
“She’s Duke’s Old Lady now,” Mia informed her.
“Girlfriend,” I interjected. “Not an official Old Lady yet.”
“Semantics.” Joni waved her hand.
“Ah, Duke.” Rachel nodded. “I like him a lot. And Savage too.”
“Your mom’s moving back with you, isn’t she?” Allison asked.
“Yeah. She’s done with the winters in Wyoming.” Rachel grinned.
