  Chapter Nine

  “Oh, crap, Liz! I need to get a shower and get dressed. I have a cake consult in fifteen minutes.”

  Lizzy arches a brow. “I think Cally will forgive you if you aren’t looking your best.”

  “Not Cally,” I say, grabbing my keys. “A wedding cake consultation.”

  Lizzy grins. “With Cally and William.”

  My jaw drops and my eyes water. Will and Cally visited me in the hospital. Cally even gushed over my engagement ring, but I didn’t notice she was wearing a ring too. “That’s…wonderful.”

  The bell rings, and Drew calls from the front, “Hanna, my sister is here!”

  I rush through the swinging door without a word to Lizzy and practically tackle Cally into a hug. “Congratulations!” I screech.

  Cally gives me a squeeze before stepping back and frowning.

  “On your engagement,” Lizzy explains behind me. “She didn’t know.”

  “Oh!” Cally throws her hand over her mouth, and I see her sparkling ring. “Of course she didn’t!”

  “How did I miss that when you visited me at the hospital?” I take her hand and study the ring. “God, it’s gorgeous.”

  “I didn’t have it on that day. The jeweler needed it so he could design my wedding band.”

  “Wedding band.” I melt a little. William and Cally had to go through so much to get this far, and I can’t think of any two people who deserve happiness more. “I’m so happy for you.”

  “Well, I’d hope so. You’re in the wedding.”

  “Ooh!” My eyes fill with tears all over again.

  Behind me, Drew grunts, and I can practically hear her rolling her eyes. “This would be so sweet if you hadn’t already been through it all months ago. Seriously, it’s the Twilight Zone around here.”

  “Come on.” I wave Cally over to a table in the corner. “Let’s talk about your wedding cake.”
