“Of course, I’ll be right back.” Jojo nodded and headed off into the crowd.
I turned to Van.
“Were you joking just now or—”
“About marrying you? No.”
“You… want to marry me?”
“Yes.”
“Just like that?”
“Just like that.”
“Is it crazy to say I want to marry you too?”
Van shook his head and chuckled. Then he drew me in even closer, and I could smell the fruity champagne on his breath.
“Surreal, but not crazy. Leaving this party right now to fly off to Vegas and get married? That would be crazy.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, my heart began to pound furiously.
We stared at each other, locked in place.
The people, the chatter, the noise around us, it all faded away.
There was just me and Van and the unmistakable proof of our love.
Hand in hand, we bolted for the door.
CHAPTER40
VAN
We said a hasty goodbye to Jojo and pulled Regan aside.
“We need your help,” I whispered as quietly as I could.
“Sure thing. What’s up?”
“We need to organize a private plane ASAP.”
“Where and why?”
“Vegas,” Brodie explained. “Pretty sure you can figure out the reason why on your own.”
Regan’s eyebrows nearly reached her hairline.
“I don’t care what it costs. This is on me, not the label,” Brodie added. “Tonight. Now. And no one is to know. No one.”
Were Brodie and I really going to do this?
Yes.
Was it insane?
Not to us.
