The wedding that night was beautiful. Britanya and Matthew were breathtaking beneath the white twinkle lights, Britanya in a satin sheath gown with and Matthew in a tux with green and red accents.
Steve managed to leave me alone almost the entire night, and that may or may not have had something to do with the plus-one I brought in the form of Gabriel, who I’d decided really was an angel.
For his part, Gabriel was all too happy to join me, and even Axl showed up to hang with Diana during the reception. When the evening was over, Gabriel came back to the lodge with me.
We stayed in touch, and when he flew to Seattle a month later to interview with the hockey team, I treated him to all the tourist spots the city had to offer, and then we treated ourselves to each other.
He got the job.
