Autumn

As if summoned by me thinking about them, my phone lights up with a series of messages. All of them have been texting me since I walked out of the rehearsal dinner, but I haven’t read any of them.

I just want it to be a clean break. Dragging it out and pretending like things aren’t the way they are isn’t going to help.

That thought makes tears spring to my eyes, and I have to laugh at myself. I’m acting the same way I acted after Raymond and I broke up, but that’s stupid. It’s like I tol

    AutumnAs if summoned by me thinking about them, my phone lights up with a series of messages. All of them have been texting me since I walked out of the rehearsal dinner, but I haven’t read any of them.I just want it to be a clean break. Dragging it out and pretending like things aren’t the way they are isn’t going to help.That thought makes tears spring to my eyes, and I have to laugh at myself. I’m acting the same way I acted after Raymond and I broke up, but that’s stupid. It’s like I told Simon, it wasn’t a real relationship, so it’s not a real break up.This was inevitable, and I knew it from the get go. This was always going to end with them leaving and me being alone again, and I managed to lose sight of that.In a way, it’s my own fault that I feel like this.Remembering that doesn’t make me feel any better, and I blink away the tears, trying to keep more of them from falling.I shouldn’t be sitting here crying over them. I should be trying to figure out what my next step

    AutumnTwo days later, I’m sitting in front of the fire, feeling like my house isn’t really my home anymore. The guys weren’t even here for all that long in the grand scheme of things, but they managed to change the way the house felt with their presence.Their jokes and laughter, their banter. Now it’s just quiet. Empty. It feels like it did when I first moved in after my relationship with Raymond ended, and that just makes it worse.After I walked out of the rehearsal dinner, I went to the only person I could think of that I could trust. It certainly wasn’t anyone in my family.Simon opened his door and his arms for me, letting me break down while he stroked my back and comforted me. Talking to him made me miss my grandmother something awful, but he was kind and listened to the whole story when it came pouring out of me.Of course, he was shocked, both to hear about the break up and that none of it was real in the first place. I pointed out that it technically didn’t even count as

    Autumn But she just presses a button to play another clip. This time it’s Elijah’s voice.“—she fails at everything she does. What do you expect?” There’s a brief pause, and then he adds, “She’s an embarrassment. Nobody actually respects her.”Rhiannon stops the audio, then pulls up another clip. This one has a slightly muffled quality, as if it was recorded from a distance when the men were obviously unaware.Still, I can tell it’s Benedict’s usually charming voice talking, and somehow, his words hurt the most. “I can’t believe I ever even wanted to be friends with her at all. She’s the most selfish fucking person I’ve ever met.”“I don’t want to hear any more,” I breathe in a shaky voice, turning away from Rhiannon and her phone.“Are you sure? I have a couple more that you should really⁠—”“I said I don’t want to hear anymore.”Before she can say anything else, I stride away from her, heart pounding in my chest. There are tears in my eyes now, and there’s nothing I can do to stop

    Autumn We get there in plenty of time, and I take a deep breath, plastering a hopefully convincing smile on my face as we walk in.My mother is already holding court, and I give her a wide berth, not wanting to get into some argument or tense discussion with her tonight. My dad is standing nearby, holding her wine glass, and I bypass him too.One of the bridesmaids, one of Rhiannon’s friends from college, comes over to me, all smiles. “Autumn,” she says. “It’s good to see you.”“You too,” I say, trying to remember if she’s Anabelle or Tiffany.Most of Rhiannon’s bridesmaids look alike in that beautiful blonde way, and in fancy dresses and heavy make-up, they’re even harder to keep straight.“And these must be your men,” she practically purrs, looking at all three of the guys in turn.“Anabelle Hamilton.” She holds her hand out, like she’s expecting them to kiss the back of it, but they just take turns shaking her hand instead.All but Luke, who gestures at his splinted wrist and shru

    Autumn The night of Rhiannon and Raymond’s rehearsal dinner comes way too soon. I’ve had my dress picked out for ages, approved by my sister and everything, but standing in my bedroom putting it on, I don’t feel ready.It’s a lovely dress, flattering on me, in a deep green color, but I feel like a fraud. Shouldn’t I be happy to be going to support my sister of all people? Shouldn’t I feel something other than the pit of dread that’s been in my stomach since I woke up this morning?I’m caught between feeling like I want to do nothing more than rip this dress off, get into my pajamas, and spend the night on the couch with a tub of ice cream and knowing that I have to go to this thing.If I don’t show up, it’ll only look worse. I keep reminding myself of that.From the doorway, someone wolf whistles at me, and I turn to see Benedict leaning against the doorframe, grinning.“I guess one good thing about this stupid dinner is it’s a good chance to see you all dressed up,” he says. “You lo

    LukeThe next day finds me pacing around Autumn’s house.This is one of the things I dislike the most about being in towns, even ones as relatively quiet as Sweetwater Lake. There’s never enough to do. If I was back at my cabin, I could be buried in any number of projects right now, taking my mind off the restless energy burning under my skin.Autumn is back at the bakery, packing more things up to move it out of there, and I wish I could be there with her. Or that she didn’t have to do this at all. I understand she’s going through a hard time, but the protective feeling in me wants to help. She seems determined to do this on her own though, and I have to respect that.I also have to find something to do before I go insane.I’ve already chopped all the wood in the backyard, and I’d go hunting for more trees to take care of if it wasn’t for my wrist still being broken. The dishes from breakfast and from dinner last night are done, and I’ve already picked up and washed all the clothes
