Chapter 6

PRINCESS

LIBBY

“What?” I sit up in bed with my cell to my ear, blinking against the bright light of my lamp when I flip it on.

“I got married!” Fawn repeats, sounding excited.

“I thought you were in Vegas,” I say, trying to wake up enough to understand exactly what she’s trying to tell me.

“We are in Vegas.” She laughs. “We also got married.”

“Oh my god,” I whisper.

“I know,” she whispers back.

I can actually hear the happiness in her voice.

“I wish you and Mac could have been here.”

“Me, too,” I agree, still in shock. “Please tell me you have pictures.”

“Tons of them. We even got a few of them with Elvis.”

“Did Elvis marry you?” I ask while I wonder how she might have been able to talk badass Levi into that.

“No. Levi wouldn’t go for it, so we had a regular wedding at a normal chapel. But I stopped an Elvis impersonator on the Strip and made him take a picture with us.”

She laughs, and a smile twitches my lips. I can just see her talking Levi into doing that.

“God, now you’re married and Mac’s pregnant,” I say without thinking. My eyes widen as I cover my mouth, hoping I can somehow shove the words back inside.

“What?” she yells at the top of her lungs.

I slap my palm against my forehead.

“I . . . Crap. I shouldn’t be the one to tell you this, because it’s Mac’s news. She found out yesterday that she and Wesley are pregnant.”

“Holy cow.”

She can say that again. When I got home to do her hair and makeup for the New Year’s Eve ball she and Wesley were attending, I found her locked in the bathroom with five positive pregnancy tests on the counter. She was sitting on the floor in shock.

“Mom’s going to be over the moon. A son-in-law and a grandbaby—all in a year,” I mutter, picking at a thread on my comforter. Secretly, I’m a little depressed that my sisters are moving on with their lives while I’m stuck doing nothing with mine.

“Holy cow,” she repeats.

I sigh. I really should have kept my mouth shut.

“Is Mac okay?”

I close my eyes, remembering Mac resting her hand against her stomach and already looking in love.

“Yeah. She’s freaked, but happy about the news. She’s worried about telling Wesley,” I admit softly.

“Why is she worried? He’ll be happy about the baby.”

“I know, but it’s still early in their relationship.”

“True. But then again, everything happens when it should,” she says quietly.

I inhale sharply. “You’re right,” I agree.

“I should let you get back to sleep. I’m sure you need to get up early for work.”

“Yeah. I love you. Give Levi a hug from me, and tell him I said congrats.”

“I will. When we get home, we’re going to have a big party to celebrate.”

“Sounds good. Don’t have too much fun in Vegas,” I say.

Levi says something to her in the background that makes her start to giggle. I smile into the phone, then laugh as it goes dead in my hand.

I shut off my lamp and lie back down, holding my cell phone. I wonder when the heck my sisters and I grew up. It doesn’t seem like it was that long ago that we were all living in this apartment, a bunk bed and a twin bed shoved in this tiny bedroom, each of us fighting over the bathroom in the mornings to get ready for work or school. We never really stopped to think about what the future would hold. I bet neither Mac nor Fawn would have guessed that in a few short years they would be settling down and starting families of their own. I know I wouldn’t have guessed that I would be sitting here contemplating my life and what I should be doing with the rest of it. I used to think that because I loved all things beauty, I would be happy doing makeup and hair. Now I know I won’t be. I know that eventually I’m going to end up hating my job, no matter how much money I make. I don’t want that. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life being miserable just so I can live comfortably.

Then again, everything happens when it should.

Fawn’s words echo in my mind.

“It’s a new year, Libby. Maybe it’s time to risk it all and go for broke,” I say into the dark.

My stomach twists with excitement and nerves.

Yes, I think as I close my eyes and a smile curves my lips. It’s time to take a chance on something new.

“Cara! What a nice surprise.” Martina gives me a warm smile after opening the door.

“I know I should have called before I showed up, but I need to talk to you and Tony. Is he around?”

“Is everything okay?” She studies me, the smile she was wearing moments ago sliding off her face. Concern fills her eyes.
