Chapter 274

The celebration was in full swing by the time the sun went down, laughter and music filling the air of the small venue. Avis and Gavin’s wedding had been nothing short of magical, a tearful ceremony beneath a canopy of string lights and flowers.
Now, the reception was in full bloom–friends and family crowding around tables, dancing in wild circles, raising glasses, and swapping stories.
I’d barely made it three steps into the reception hall before Avis had rushed forward and swept me into a hug, nearly crushing her wildflower bouquet against my baby blue bridesmaid dress.
“Avis, you looked absolutely breathtaking out there,” I murmured, squeezing her tightly. We swayed back and forth, tears pricking at both of our eyes.
“I still can’t believe it’s real,” she said, pulling back just enough to look at me. Her eyes were glistening, and I could feel my own throat tightening just seeing her. “I thought I’d be terrified of everything going wrong, especially since the wedding was scheduled so quickly. But today has been so perfect. Thanks to you girls.”
I beamed, recalling all of the hard work that Tina, Betty, and myself had put into making today a fairytale for our friend. A few secret battles had been fought this morning, unbeknownst to Avis–last–minute cake troubles, guests bringing unexpected plus–ones, the band getting stuck in traffic.
But everything had turned out perfectly in the end.
“No, you’re perfect,” I said, kissing her on the cheek. “And Gavin.” I glanced across the room where Gavin was laughing with Peter and Edwin, already tipsy off champagne. “You two are so amazing together.”
Avis followed my gaze, her expression softening?“You know, I always thought love was supposed to be this big, overwhelming thing with lots of ups and downs. But with him, it’s different. It’s… peaceful. Solid.”
“That’s how you know it’s real,” I said softly, kissing her other cheek now. She didn’t seem to care that I smudged her makeup a little.
