Eve flips through the book Becky had given her, not finding anything she likes so far. Frustrated, she tossed the book aside and sighs heavily. “I don’t like doing this without his input.”
“Do you really want him making all the plans for you?” Fox smirks as she flips another page.
“No!” Eve growls back, rolling her eyes. “I just don’t know what he would like!”
“You naked under him is what he would like.” Fox grins at Eve’s blush. “But I’m afraid that is gonna have to wait. In the meantime, I can try to help. What do you want to know?”
“Where does he come from?” She waves at the books. “Does he want modern or traditional?”
“He comes from what is now considered Scotland and Ireland.” Fox lifts her phone. “As for the rest, I’ll bug David and get him to pry it out of him.”
David glances up from his phone as Owen stops the cart by a row of coffee. “Why are we doing the grocery shopping again?”
“Everything at the house is in a deep freezer.” He picks up a can, scanning the ingredients.
“Shouldn’t you be helping her make arrangements?” David grabs a can and tosses it into the cart before Owen spends the next 20 min looking at each one. “She doesn’t know your traditions.”
He sighs, putting the can back and heading down the aisle again. “True but I’m not sure she wants any more traditions as you put it.”
“According to Fox she can’t find a dress because she has no idea what kind to pick.” David shows him the text. “You two need to talk more about this.”
He frowns as he realizes she needs more from him. He closes his eyes, letting his barriers up enough for her to feel his preferences.
Eve nearly jumps out of her skin as Owen’s emotions fill her. Fox eyes her warily, reaching out to get her attention. “You ok?”
“I will be in a minute.” Eve smiles and opens her eyes again. “I think he’s trying to let me in so I can see what he wants. It’s strange but this way I know exactly what he wants.”
She grabs a book she had previously looked at, flipping through til she gets to a certain page. She waves Becky over and after much conferring and sketching; she seems satisfied with the dress. Becky gives her swatches to look at and Fox helps pick the color, a very pale blue. They then move onto bridesmaid’s dresses and bouquets. When she feels like she has done enough for the day, Eve leans back and sighs.
“I feel like my brain is about to explode.” She grins. “But it’s worth it.”
Becky looks up from the counter. “I will need several dress fittings over the next few weeks. Will you be home?”
“I don’t know but if I’m not, add the trip to the bill and I’ll pay for it.” Eve winks at her.
Fox watches Becky go back to her drawings. “So? How much is he overloading you?”
“Not too bad.” She leans back in her seat and rubs tiredly at her face. “Just all this information and I have to wade through it to get what I want.” Her lips twitch up. “Plus it’s weird hearing the inner musings of him trying to decide between steaks for dinner tonight over a roast.”
“He’s going to cook as well?” Fox lifts a brow, trying to fathom the idea.
“Oh hell no!” She laughs. “His idea of steak is slap its horns off and set it on the plate still mooing! I like mine a lot more done than that.”
Becky walks back with a detailed bill. “This is the estimate. It will of course be more once travel expenses are added.” She grins. “So when do I get to meet your soon to be husband?”
Eve accepts the bill and tucks it in a pocket. “As soon as he’s done shopping for food. Apparently I don’t store enough to feed him.”
Becky laughs softly. “Well, if you have time I also have other things I could show you, lingerie, toys and such that I don’t keep out in the main room.”
Eve, shocked, grins wickedly back. “Why Becky, you’ve expanded again! Lead on, Oh Mistress of Naughtiness!”
Owen nearly drops the back of corn on the cob he was putting in the cart when he catches an image of Eve holding a pair of soft handcuffs. David stares at him in confusion, making him slightly blush. “I think it is time we go find the ladies before they buy something neither of us would like to have used on us.”
“Do I even want to know?” David turns the cart towards the check out.
“Probably not.” He quickly looks around so he knows he’s not overheard. “Apparently the shop sells more than dresses.”
David empties the cart and smiles. “Then this could be a very educational evening.”
Eve winks at Fox and gathers her choices to be rung up. “We better hurry. Owen has figured out what we are up to and is heading our way.”
Fox laughs and picks a few more items. “Let him. David loves it when I spice things up. I just hope we don’t keep you awake all night.”
“Me? Doubt it.” She pays and bags everything just as she hears the door open. “Maybe the first thing I should learn is to sound proof rooms.”
“Maybe the first thing you should do is learn to keep your thoughts to yourself.” David steps behind Fox and kisses her neck softly. “I think poor Owen almost fainted for a moment when he found out you were buying toys.”
“Really?” She laughs and tosses her bag over her shoulder. “That could come in handy sometime.”
Owen steps into the store and glances around. “Is everything settled now, Eve?”
“For now.” She takes his hand and pulls him closer, feeling the tension in him just before he shuts her out again. “I’ve offered to pay travel expenses for Becky to come to us for the fittings.”
“If our schedules allow it, we could come back for the final fitting and check on the foals as well.” He glances at her bag and then away. “I have the food in the car already. Do you need anything else before we head back?’
“I’m good.” Her lips twitch up as Becky comes back into the room and stares at Owen in shock. “Oh, by the way, this is Becky Newton. We went to school together and spent a lot of our time here in the store when her mom ran it years ago.” He turns and looks at her. “Becky, this is Owen Burnett my fiancé.”
Becky takes his outstretched hand, nearly drooling. “Pleased to meet you.”
He gives a gentle squeeze of the hand before letting go. “And you as well. I am glad to see Eve’s dress will be in the hands of a trusted friend.”
She blushes and hands Fox her bag. “I will call you in 2 weeks for the first fitting.”
“Thanks!” She pulls Owen out of the store before Becky does something foolish. “I think if we had stayed in there any longer Becky would’ve started flirting with you.”
“Highly doubtful, My Dear.” He tucks her arm in his and kisses her forehead softly.
“You don’t know Becky like I do.” She leans into his arm, smiling up at him. “When she comes up for dress fittings I can guarantee she’s going to try to get you to cheat on me.”
His eyes crinkle as a mischievous smile lights his face. “Then I will be sure to dissuade her from that notion.”
“Just make sure you go easy on her.” She swats at him as he opens the car door for her. “She’s a human and I want my dress in one piece.”
