Strangely, once it had broken, I felt lighter.
It was as if a stone I'd carried on my shoulders for 10 years had finally fallen away. It hit the ground in a cloud of dust, and for the first time, I could stand up straight.
"Ethan."
"Yes?"
"What about the wedding?"
"You don't need to worry about any of it."
He unlocked his phone and called someone immediately.
"It's me. Send me the contact information for everyone handling Grace's wedding. Venue, hotel, wedding planner, guest notifications, everything. Redo it all. Yes, use the plan I gave you before. Keep the time and venue from that plan. Same bride."
He hung up and looked at me.
"You only need to do one thing."
"What?"
"Rest. Tomorrow, be my bride."
When I woke up, I was already in a hotel suite.
Kayla and my other bridesmai
