He laughed and downed the rest of his coffee.
Mike: Point to you, Hyde.
Another text flashed on his screen as he stood up.
Stella: ;) Running to a meeting. See you later.
Stella had looked so flabbergasted when he'd told her the details of the wedding. Everyone else in his life knew most of the Josh- Mike -Molly backstory, so he had kind of forgotten how crazy it was that he was in the wedding. And the worst part was that he hadn't even told her the whole story; he'd actually seemed like a good guy in the story that he had told.
There was no point in telling the woman you were stuck in an elevator with for probably only a few minutes that you'd broken the heart of the nicest person in the world, the snowball that had started this whole avalanche, and you probably deserved all of the looks you'd get all weekend, right? It wasn't like he'd lied to her; everything he said was the truth, just not the whole truth. It wasn't like he'd made Josh or Molly out to be evil, had he?
Well, maybe a little bit, but it was only because this no- date- for- the- wedding thing had driven him out of his mind. He should have just bailed on the wedding and looked like even more of a bad guy
