What if she took one look at me and confirmed what I already knew to be true? Garrick was too good for me.
But that didn’t mean I was too stupid to know that he could have someone prettier or taller or with less frizzy hair. But he was with me. As long as I didn’t screw it up, of course. And God knows I was good at screwing things up.
I’d fixed my hair, retouched my makeup, donned my best outfit, thrown on my best jewelry, and I was fairly certain that their toilet bowl scrubber still cost more than my entire outfit.
No... me being a disaster of awkward proportions was the least surprising thing ever. I’d made a smash all right. Like I was the Hulk’s cousin.
I needed to turn off Bliss and become someone else, someone who fit in this place and knew what to say and what not to say.
Bliss smiled, but it was one of those watery, wavering kinds of smiles that made every man want to run for the hills. I’d become well accustomed to Bliss’s panic freak-outs.
She was the ultimate game changer. I hadn't known what it was like to meet a person so full of joy that just by being near her, I was elevated to a happier place. I’d never been with someone who was able to captivate every part of me—mind, body, and soul.
Again and again, Bliss seemed to be my new beginning, the thing to help me let go of the past and move forward.
She was my everything—the lungs that allowed me to breathe, the heart that had to beat, the eyes that let me see. She’d become a part of me, and all that was left was a piece of paper to tell the world we were as inseparable as I already felt we were.
