“Margot, there you are,” said Anne Beck, who was behind her.
Margot turned to see Quinn’s mother standing behind her looking lovely in a burgundy colored gown that really brought out her light green eyes. Margot smiled. “Bonjour, Mrs. Beck.”
“Oh please, call me Anne,” she said, waving dismissively. “I wanted to ask you how Quinn is doing. He said very little last night. Does he seem to be doing okay?” she asked, a hint of concern in her tone.
“Très bien.” She nodded. “He is doing very well,” Margot assured her.
Anne sighed in relief. “Thank you, dear; I have been a mess over this whole situation with him. I just feel like it’s my fault. I should have done something when he started having those fits when he was a little boy. I thought it was just a phase he was going through; I never could have imagined that something like that happened.”
“Non, Anne, do not blame yourself. How could you have known?” Margot said, taking her hand and squeezing it.
Anne nodded. “I guess. I am just so glad that he’s found such a wonderful, understanding woman,” Anne said warmly.
Margot smiled. “Merci.”
Anne chuckled and patted Margot’s hand. “I just love when you speak French!”
Margot spoke with Anne for a little longer before her husband dragged her away to speak with other guests. Margot sipped her champagne and looked around at the crowd, everyone seemed to be mingling and having a good time. She was dying to see Quinn, though. He looked so handsome in that tux of his and she just wanted to stare at him all night.
Finally, everyone was ushered to their tables so that the reception could begin. Margot found her place card and went to table number two. It appeared that she would be sitting with the bridal party since Sebastian and Raelynn had their own little sweetheart table. Shea was already sitting at the table. Margot sat down next to him.
“Bonjour, Shea.” Margot greeted him.
“Bonjour, Margot,” he replied with a cute little side smirk.
Shea was a very handsome man. He fit right in with the Beck brothers, that was for sure. Shea had a warm, heartfelt smile and dark brown eyes that seemed to be always shimmering with amusement. His dark hair cropped close to his head and he had a short neatly trimmed goatee. Margot has never seen him dressed up before, and he definitely cleaned up well.
“I have been wondering, how long have you and Christian been friends?” Margot asked as they waited for the other guests to find their seats. She did not know much about Shea other than that he and Christian were best friends.
“Jesus, forever. I think we became friends in pre-school and have been practically glued at the hip ever since,” Shea said, a fond smile on his face.
“You two are very close then.” She surmised.
“Christian’s my boy; I don’t know what I’d do without him.” He nodded.
“You are very lucky to have such a wonderful lifelong friend.”
Shea smiled. “I am very lucky. Christian is awesome.”
She nodded in agreement. They chit chatted for a couple of minutes before the DJ got on the microphone, starting the music and the introductions. The song that came on had Margot and Shea laughing; it was, I’m Too Sexy, by Right Said Fred.
“If everyone can please turn your attention to the dance floor, we are going to introduce your bridal party!” The DJ said. “First up, we have Christian and Bianna!”
Christian and Raelynn’s sister, Bianna, came strutting in like they were runway models. Christian had his jacket tossed over his shoulder and a pair of mirrored aviator sunglasses on his face. Bianna flipped her hair over her shoulder in a very diva-like manner.
“Next, give it up for Quinn and Claire!”
Quinn and Claire walked in. Quinn also had the sunglasses on, his jacket was open and he had his free hand in his front pocket. Claire was sucking her cheeks in and had her free hand on her hip as they swaggered in. Margot couldn’t get over how sexy Quinn looked; she always loved the way he walked.
“Alright now, here’s your Best Man and Matron-of-honor, Henry and Elise!”
Henry and Elise strutted in, again Henry had on sunglasses, but he wore an arrogant smile on his face along with them. He slid his sunglasses down his nose, pointed at someone and blew a kiss before pushing his sunglasses back up with one finger. Elise did her best runway walk and posed just before they split apart.
“And now… your couple of the night… Mr. and Mrs. Sebastian Beck!”
The music changed to Sexy and I Know It by LMFAO right before Sebastian and Raelynn walked out. Everyone stood to watch them, and honestly, Margot has never seen anything like it. They had a dance put together and they were both awesome dancers. They were in sync with each other and were doing all kinds of crazy moves. It was hilarious. Margot knew at that moment, this was going to be a night to remember.
