Miranda POV
I was so very thankful for having someone like Avalynn as not only a good friend but family. She has been a true friend day in and day out. She has shown me kindness at a time when I didn't deserve it or anything remotely nice towards me. I hugged her and thanked her for it. She would never know how thankful I was for her generosity and grace that day. She, along with Brent, seemed to calm the storm raging inside of me. It was like every ounce of my being knew what later tonight would bring. Her encouraging words and help along the way made my anxiety subside.
Brent and Everest entered the room. I watched as Everest escorted Avalynn out of the room and I was left alone with Brent. He looked dashing in his suit. It was tailored in all of the right places and cut to fit his bod
