If that was an accident good luck getting it back.

Me

Can you take Ruby out today? Get manicures, or her hair done. Whatever she wants. I know she won’t accept it from me, but I want today to be special for her & make sure she has a dress she loves.

Lauren

Oh. my. Fucking. God. You’re in love.

Me

Didn’t ask for your opinion, Sour Patch. Can you do it?

Lauren

You know you text me for a reason. Of course I can.

Lauren

You’re alright Landry, you know that?

Me

Just make my girl feel special until she’ll let me do it myself. And don’t mention any of this to her. Please.

Lauren

Me

I have no idea what that means.

CHAPTER24

RUBY

Lauren

Get dressed baby. I’m picking you up for some wedding day pampering.

Me

You don’t have to do that Lu. You know it’s not like that.

Lauren

First of all, I’m already on the way so I’ll hear NONE of that. Second of all, let’s pretend that it is.

Me

Fine. See you soon.

I’m kind ofglad Lauren insisted on getting me out of the house today, even if it’s for something as silly aswedding day pampering. Hendrix demanded he hang out with the guys today and I’ve spent way too much time alone with my thoughts. My anxiety is at an all-time high now that I’ve had a moment to let the entirety of what’s happening settle in and I feel like I’ve gone completely mad.

My ex is back.
