“Oh, you know just the light on the garage turning on from the motion sensor.” Heather tells me matter-of-factly.

“Well, put me in my place. I forgot about that.” I laugh out.

“Wait, didn’t y’all go dress shopping? She didn’t tell you and you didn’t ask?” Dani sounds amazed.

“I was waiting for us all to be together. Little things I’ll take, but big-ticket items absolutely need both of us.” Heather informs us.

Why does that make sense? I mean, these two are the ones that made me realize I should give Cole a chance. These two are trouble with a capital T.

“Why have I brought the two of you together?” I ask out loud to them.

“Because you love us and now we are a bestie trio.” Dani answers.

The three of us look at each other and start laughing. We laugh for a minute before we can control ourselves.

“Spill lady.” Heather tells me.

“What do you want to know?” I ask.

“All of it! Wait, not if you slept with him cause that’s my brother-in-law, but maybe just say if it was good.” Heather says with her face scrunched up.

“We haven’t slept together in that manner yet, thank you very much. But date night in was not what I expected either.” I tell them.

I recap our date and how Cole let me cry, and how we fell asleep and about our conversation the next morning, deciding we were all in.

“Who knew my brother-in-law had game like that? Go Cole!” Heather says.

“Damn, you’ve got a good one, Adri.” Dani tells me.

“He is pretty awesome.” I say all smiley.

“Oh, she’s smitten.” Dani nudges Heather with her elbow.

“She isn’t the only one.” Heather replies.

“But what happened last night?” Dani asks.

“Oh, Cole came over to talk to me about Dylan Crawford.” I tell them both.

“Ty told me too. It seemed odd, since we didn’t really say too much to him.” Heather confirmed Ty told her what Cole had told me.

“We will get back to that in a moment, I promise. But, we had our whole defining what all in means moment and we are officially official. We aren’t confirming or denying with the team outside of our friends, but we are going public at the gala though. We want a little more time in our bubble first before having to deal with the media and all.” I tell the girls.

These two are ridiculous. They both squeal with excitement for me and I love them both for it. They just want to see me happy. I couldn’t ask for better friends.

“So happy for you, Adri. I’ve been a little worried about you since what happened with small dick, Toby.” Dani tells me.

“I love you for that D.” I tell Dani.

“We are going to be sister-in-law’s. I’m so happy for the two of you. Just remember who got you two together.” Heather says with a wink.

“Oh jeez, you are already planning my wedding in your head, aren’t you?” I ask Heather.

“It might not just be me, but us,” Heather says, pointing to Dani and herself.

I shake my head at the two of them. I can’t deal with them. It’s only been a few weeks since Cole and I even really started anything.

“It hasn’t even been that long for you to even think about that.” I tell them.
