Lex, Luca and Zane stare at me, none of them sure what to say. That's not what gets me, though. It's the fact that Dion is sitting opposite me in my living room. It's rare for all five of us to be together, since Dion lives in London. The fact that he flew here overnight means they're worried about me.
"What is this shit about you two breaking up a week before the wedding?" Dion asks eventually. "You're supposed to be the lucky one out of us, dickhead. You're the only one of us that actually gets to marry the person you love, and you pull this bullshit."
I run a hand through my hair and look up at the ceiling. "It's not like I wanted to, Dion. I'm as surprised as you are. I knew we had our issues, but what couple doesn't? I didn't expect her to call off the wedding for real."
