“Does this make me an old lady now?” Skylar asked, lifting her hand up in the air. Paul was on one side of her, her husband. Leo, her second soon to be husband, was on the other side of her. After dinner and dancing they’d stumbled into a church, and within twenty minutes they were married. She stared at the single gold band. It had been on Leo’s pinky finger, and it fit her wedding finger.
“Yes, you’re two men’s old lady. I wonder if that makes you twice the old lady,” Paul said.
Skylar chuckled. “It’s a beautiful ring.” She turned to Leo.
“We’ll be getting you a much better one, that we can promise you.”
“I don’t need a better one. This was perfect. I think Teri’s going to be pissed at me though. I got married without her.” She had wanted her sister to be there when she got married. That wouldn’t happen.
Paul grabbed his cell phone. “She’s already on dial, and smile, guys. Teri’s going to be answering any second.”
Skylar stared at the phone, and then her sister was there.
“Guys, how is Vegas? You had any fun yet? Have you been showing Skylar a good time?” Teri asked. “Hey, sweetie, you’re looking happy.”
“Guess what?” Skylar asked.
She felt like her smile spread over her whole face, she was that happy.
“What? What is it?” Teri looked at all three of them.
Holding up her hand, she giggled. “I married Paul last night. It’s official. I’m staying in Greater Falls, and I’m a wife now. Who would have thought?”
Teri screamed, and suddenly Kitty Cat and Chloe were there wanting to know the news. Skylar showed them the ring, and they were all wishing them congratulations.
“As much as I’d love to listen to you guys talk all day, I was wondering if you could make arrangements so that we could have another ceremony where we bound her to Leo.”
“You do know you can’t do that in a church, right?” Teri asked.
“We know that. It’s why we want James to say a few words, and to have it as an informal event. Marry all three of us in the eyes of the club.”
“It’s unique, and I’ll let James know. I’m so happy for you guys. Like, big kisses and hugs. Your first baby needs to be named after me, seeing as I was the one that invited Skylar home. I hold myself personally responsible for your happiness.”
Skylar shook her head. “You can try and take the blame all you want.”
“Are you happy?” Teri asked.
“I’ve never been happier, and Leo has promised that he’s going to try and get me to watch an entire movie without moving once. I think it’s a challenge,” Skylar said.
“They know?”
“Yes, we know,” Paul said. “There’s not going to be any secrets between us, not one.”
“Have a wonderful weekend, and I can’t wait to see all of you so that I can hug and kiss you.” Teri blew a kiss and hung up.
Skylar took both of her men’s hands, and held on tight. “I don’t want to keep any secrets from you, so I’m just going to tell you now. My sister slept with Dane. It’s my secret to tell, and I don’t want her to know that I’ve said anything, but I also don’t want you to think that I can keep secrets from you.”
“Paul, tell her.”
She frowned looking from Leo to Paul.
“Fine. I called ahead to the real estate place that you went into asking for places to rent, and I told them to turn you down.”
“What?” Skylar asked.
“Look, I liked you, and so did Leo, and it was for your own good, okay? Didn’t want to do it, but you were going to leave, and none of us wanted that.”
Skylar looked at Paul, and smiled. “You wanted to keep me around?”
