Chapter 6
_______________________

"Flynn Alexander Ryan if you don't sit down I will make it so you can't stand ever again," the beautiful black woman says as she crosses her legs gracefully. Her long brown legs exposed in the jean shorts, and her thin arms visible in her tight white top. Her dark hair braided and her dark eyes were watching us closely.

"Oh come on Leah how can you be so calm? We have been here for hours," Flynn says his own brown hair barely long enough to run his fingers through. Because of his military father I think this is the longest his hair has every been. Obviously being away from home has given him something strict parents never understand. A sense of freedom to find him self.

"Flynn," Leah warns, "don't give me that excuse, you are just trying to peep at the other brides."

Maybe too much freedom.

He tosses her a playboy smile before sitting between Leah and I in the chairs against the wall. We are seated in the waiting room, while Ella and Barbra, Prince's mom, are in the back.

"Oh come on mom," he says, "nothing says fun like cold feet on a hot bride."

This time I take the opportunity to smack his arm hard. He winces and quick stands up before I can attack him again.

"Fuck Ivy. It's cheating if you hit me," he says and sucks in a breath looking at the red mark just below his gray shirt sleeve.

"It's cheating when their engaged," I snap back at him and he shrugs his shoulders.

"I feel like I am doing them a favor. Reminding them why they shouldn't get married. I'm just a savior no need to thank me," he says with a bow and wink a pair of girls eyeing him.

We are in a flower shop that specializes in bridal arrangements and last minute changes. However we are here only because Ella wants an archway of flowers at the resort wedding on the beach.

Leah, who is my best friend, is a brides maid for Ella. Which I was thankful for because Leah is like a mother to her while I'm just a big sister. So maybe she will listen to her more than me when things start to go crazy.

If you haven't noticed Ella craves a mother figure in her life and she will chase anyone that will give it too her. So she clings to Leah.

"No one is thanking you," I remind him.

Flynn just looks over at the girls who are smiling at him then looking away and back at him, "not yet," he tells me smiling. I use this distraction to swing my long leg and kick him in the shin that is covered by his black jeans.

Flynn was actually introduced to the group as one of Ella's friend but he got pretty close to Lucas and Zander apparently when Ella got pregnant. So he is a groomsman. Flynn is a year younger than me and Leah, but somehow manages to look older when he is working and not chasing after girls.

"Ivy," Leah says next to me as Flynn says he's going to go find an 'ice pack' and disappears after the girls he was smiling at, "you got into anther fight last night? That's two in one week?"

I nod my head, "yeah and?" I ask.
It has been a week since I went to my, long overdue, fight last Saturday and then again this past Saturday night. Actually that should make it a about a week since I met Zander.

I try to brush off the thought of him. I have seen him just about everyday for a number of hours. We flirt back and forth the whole time and it's fun, Ella has even declares herself scarred from watching.
