Rowan's POV:

"Come on you two love birds!" I yelled at them through the car window. Taylor and Ethan were sucking each others faces again and we had a tight schedule to keep up with for this rehearsal dinner.

Ethan opened his door and laughed, "Ok ok, jeez Ro way to make it sound we were doing anything but kissing in there."

I scoffed, "Oh please you were bout to take her right then and there in that car." He opened his mouth to say something but I cut him off. I pointed my finger at him, "And don't even bother trying to deny it. Now get your asses into that restaurant and let's get this thing started."

He raised his hands up in defeat and proceeded to grab Taylor's hand and lead her inside.

As Taylor passed me and Grayson I heard her mumble something to Ethan. I barely picked it up but I heard her say, "She needs to get laid tonight."

I narrowed my eyes at my best friend and shook my head.

"Ro, babe." Grayson said snapping out of my murderous thoughts about my best friend.

"Hm, yeah what's up?" I looked up to him.

"Wanna go in?"

I nodded, "Yep. Let's go see how your brother manages to screw up this night."

He threw his head back and laughed. God I loved his laugh. "You're right. We can't miss this shit show." He grabbed my hand and pulled me into the restaurant.

We neared the room that the dinner was being held and heard yelling. Grayson turned to me and his eyes grew wide along with mine.

I walked in and saw. Taylor's dad looking very pissed off and Taylor not knowing what to do and Ethan having a smile of victory on his face. Sean and Lisa had their hands on their faces shaking their heads.

"What the fuck happened?" I asked.

Taylor's dad's head whipped to face me. "This little fucker thought it would be funny to scare a retired police officer with a whoopee cushion that sounded like a gun going off."

"Ethan, really. That was childish. I warned you Ethan but did you listen, no."

"Hey I thought he could take a joke."

Taylor speaks up finally and she looks amused but upset nonetheless, "Babe really. You thought that was the right kind of joke to pull on my dad?"

He shrugged his shoulders, "Yeah. But I'm sorry sir if I scared you. I didn't think you'd mind because Taylor told me you had a good sense of humor." He held out his hand to shake her father's but he didn't want any of it. He just sat down and stared at the menu.

"Well let's continue this lovely evening with no more distractions, shall we?" I sat down next to Grayson and his hand immediately found my thigh. I looked up to him and smiled, "Just so you know if you pull that shit with my father, he'll probably be a little more forgiving. But still don't try it."

"Wouldn't think of it babe." He kissed my temple and turned back to look at the menu.

Once the dinner was done we all headed back out to our cars.

Taylor skipped over to Gray and I as we stood by the Escalade.

I turned my attention towards her. "Soooo guess what?"

"What? Did your dad forgive Ethan?"

"Yeah but that's besides the point. Ethan and I booked you guys your own hotel room at the W."

"What?"

"Yeah It wasn't too much trouble and we told them you were on your honeymoon, so discount."

"Taylor stop. We don't need a hotel room."

"Uh yeah you do because Ethan and I can't see each other tomorrow before the ceremony so we can't stay together and I'm not letting y'all fuck while I'm there so we got you a room."

I shake my head, "No Taylor we don't need the rook because-"

"I don't want to hear your excuse. You guys are taking the room even if I have to lock you guys in it. Now hop in we are going to take y'all there. I already had a bag packed for you both earlier."

My mouth hung open and I looked at her. "Oh come on Ro. Close your mouth or you'll get flies in it."

I looked up to Gray who seemed amused by the whole situation.

"Uh Taylor one problem. We don't have um- um."

"Oh these?" She pulled out a whole stack of multi colored condoms. "Already packed some in the bag for you. Just in case you wanna go a couple rounds."

My mouth fell open again. "Ro not again." She closed my mouth and pushed me into the car. Grayson followed behind me.

We arrive to the hotel room and I look around. "Wow Ethan and Taylor really outdid themselves." I looked over to Grayson.

"Yeah they did. I don't know why they had to get us a room though. We could have easily done this sleepover at one of our places."

I nodded, "You're right. I swear Taylor is just so extra sometimes."

Grayson walked across the room, closing the distance between us until he was right in front of me.
