No, no, no. I kicked out of my head that image of a sweaty and naked
Aaron doing—
No.
“Okay,” Aaron said, zipping closed his emptied suitcase. “And if you are
sure we can share the bed, then we will. With a little luck, this one won’t
shatter too.”
A whole new mental image ambushed me. One very similar but that now
included me and—
Nope. I needed to stop this nonsense.
“It’s settled then,” I said, getting rid of those unwanted thoughts and

“And we would get caught exactly how? Does your cousin go around,
entering bedrooms she doesn’t sleep in?”

maid-of-honor duties were overruled by one of my youngest cousins, Gabi.” I
placed the towels on the comforter. “And that means only one thing.” I
paused dramatically. “The Wedding Cup.”
“The Wedding Cup?” A chuckle left Aaron’s lips.
Strangely, that little noise made me want to smile. I ignored it and gave
him a rundown of how we’d be occupying our day instead.
“In the Wedding Cup”—I sighed—“Team Bride, which is composed of
all the females invited to the bachelor-slash-bachelorette party, competes
against Team Groom, which will be composed of the male ones.” I said that
last part with sarcasm. “Real refreshing, huh? Boys against girls, competing
