“Now?” Gunner asked in a shocked voice.
“Yes, now. Come up with something. You’re my best man dude. You owe me this. My wife is horny, and I need to take of it now if I’m to start out my husbandly duties right. ”
“Oh, Jesus H. Christ, I didn’t need to over-hear that,” Ellie said rolling her eyes.
Gunner let out a laugh as he grabbed Ellie and kissed her. “You’re next!”
“Yeah, I didn’t need to hear that. That’s my sister, you prick,”
“She’s my wife. ”
“Can y’all just come up with a reason for us to leave? I just want a goddamn cheeseburger from McDonald’s. ” Ari shouted.
I set Ari down, and we all just stared at her.
“What? I want a cheeseburger. What’s so wrong with that?”
“Nothing, baby. You want a cheeseburger so I’ll get you a cheeseburger. ” I looked over at Gunner. “Gunner, go get Ari a cheeseburger. ”
“What the fuck? You just said you wanted to leave. Now you’re telling me to go get a cheeseburger! I don’t remember that in my list of best man duties. ”
“Who wants a cheeseburger?” Heather said as she walked up from the dance floor.
“Ari does, but they also want to leave,” Gunner said.
“Then, just leave. ”
We all turned and looked at Heather.
“They can’t leave yet. They have to stay for at least another hour,” Ellie said.
“Fuck a duck. I need a cheeseburger. ” Ari said.
“McDonald’s?” Heather asked.
Ari nodded her head, and Heather laughed.
“Well, since my date seems to have decided that he
likes dancing with none other than Lynda, I’m more than happy to go get you one. ”
‘Oh god, Heather, I love you! Don’t tell my mom though. She’ll be pissed if she knew I sent you for a burger. ”
Heather laughed and headed back up to the room the girls got dressed in to grab her purse and car keys.
I can’t believe she’s really going to McDonald’s for Ari. Damn that’s a good friend.
Josh walked over from the bar, carrying a beer in his hand. “Where is Heather going?”
“Well, since your girlfriend won’t stop dancing with Heather’s date, bitch move by the way, she offered to go and get me a McDonald’s cheeseburger. You should go with her. I’m sure she could use the company and I don’t want her walking in the dark all alone. ” Ari said.
Josh set his beer down and looked out to Lynda on the dance floor. “Okay, if Lynda asks where I am. ”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it,” Ellie said as she pushed Josh toward the door where Heather would be leaving.
Josh took off and never looked back.
“You sneaky little thing you,” Gunner said as he looked at Ari.
