pretty much it so don’t worry your pretty
little head; we didn’t spend the whole evening talking about
you.”
    Sienna changes the subject as she always does
when she wants to avoid talking any more about a subject. They
start discussing my wedding, and I wander around the shop. Cole and
Grandmother are still talking to Bev, and I can hear them
discussing our wedding cake or rather us not having a
wedding cake. We decided to do a variety of red velvet, German
chocolate, and coconut cupcakes in lieu of a traditional wedding
cake. Grandmother absolutely hates the idea; although, that’s not a
surprise.
    “I just think that a vanilla wedding cake
with white icing is proper for an event such as this; cupcakes are
so juvenile. This is not a sixth birthday party,” she says. Cole
gives me a look, and I can tell he wants me to save him.
    “Grandmother, we already discussed this; we
wanted to choose something that would be different and fun. Bev,
please tell her that a lot of people are choosing different options
when it comes to cakes.” Hopefully she will be able to talk
Grandmother down off the ledge.
    “Yes!” she says, catching on to my hint. “You
would be surprised how many people are choosing different
varieties. These young people have new, fresh ideas, and trust me,
it really will look gorgeous. Come and look at some pictures of a
few cupcake towers I have done.” She takes Grandmother over to a
table, and they sit down with a stack of photo albums.
    “Thanks for leaving me in the trenches taking
grenades for twenty minutes,” Cole whispers exasperatedly. “You
couldn’t have come and saved me sooner? Your grandmother thinks you
are marrying a hoodlum who is forcing you to have cupcakes at your
fancy wedding. She thinks that it will destroy the whole
event.”
    I laugh. “Stop! She doesn’t think that, and
you know she adores you,” I say as I put my arm around him.
    “Whatever. Maybe she did before, but the
cupcakes have pushed her over the edge. I’m worried because you
never know, she may stand up and object at the ceremony.” Of
course, he knows that will never happen.
    We finally leave Bev's a little while later,
and thankfully there’s no more mention about the wedding cake or
Luke Price. After Sienna and I arrive home, we sit down and work
out a few more wedding details. I decide to not bring up her secret
phone calls because I’m pretty sure she has had enough emotional
trauma for one day. We spend the rest of the night talking about my
wedding shower and our upcoming girl’s weekend along with enjoying
the emergency cookie stash. I usually never eat my cookies, but I
think I’ve earned it tonight.
    I wake up the next morning with a major sugar
hangover. Is there such a thing? I feel horrible! When I stumble
out of my room, I find a note from Sienna’s personalized stationary
collection on the kitchen counter.
    M-
    Officially 4 weeks to go! YAY
    BTW-Ellie called me; I’m on my way to meet
her and Stephanie at Alexa’s to look at bridesmaid dresses.
Apparently, it is life or death. Is she always this high
maintenance?
    Call u later!
    -S
    Oh no! As if I’m not feeling bad enough, I
wake up and I’m greeted by a message about my cousins. I’m really
surprised at how involved they are becoming. I was convinced they
would just show up for the event and have nothing to do with any
planning, but clearly, I was wrong. The question is, should I head
over to Alexa’s or just let Sienna handle it? I did plan on
spending the day packing. Maybe I should ask Sienna. I find my
phone still in my bag from the day before. It barely has any
battery power left, so I plug it in and send Sienna a text.
    Do you want me to meet you
or stay here and pack?
    I make a protein shake while I wait for her
response. I had a plan to get a lot accomplished today. My life is
about to get really busy and now I have to stop everything to go do
damage control. I reread Sienna’s note. Four weeks, wow. I’m
getting
