hugging me as Vicky leaned out of the way.
    “Hey mama. I’d like you to meet my girlfriend, Vicky. Vicky this beautiful woman is my mother Jane. Though I think she could easily pass as my sister.”
    My mom smacks my arm, smiling at me, before hugging Vicky. “It’s nice to meet you. I’m glad my Jakie has found someone. He’s seemed so lost lately.”
    Just then my mom was called, she said her goodbyes and walked off. Just as I was about to pull her away again, the music started playing and we were pulled out on the dance floor.
    “What the hell, Jacob? Get that shit under control,” she hissed at me as we danced.
    “I can’t,” I hissed back.
    The music ended and then Tobey came out in a suit. He clapped his hands to get everyone’s attention.
    “The reason that Mary and I asked everyone to be here is because we have decided to have a surprise wedding…today. We’ve already had everything planned out and are ready to tie the knot and make it all official.”
    “ You’ve got to be kidding me!” I hear yelled, but can’t find him.
    Without seeing his face, though, I knew who it was. We all did. No one seemed to acknowledge it though. Not that we didn’t care because we all did. Nate was family, but we weren’t going to lose sight that our little sister was getting married and without even announcing she was engaged. I think tonight was the night I had a talk with Nate. Thinking about it more now, Vicky would be the perfect person to help me too.  My heart broke for Nate, but it was time he saw that Mary was moving on. It was his turn too as well.

    This was such a scary situation. I thought I was going to walk into a small little get together, but now I’m part of a very intimate moment surrounded by so many people. As I look around, I find myself wondering what would push Jacob to think he needed to resort to drugs. His family was amazing. They all seemed to welcome me which made me feel guilty for lying to them. Of course guilt didn’t rear its ugly head until Jacob’s erection wasn’t pressing against me. I don’t know what it was about that man, but damn did he have a button straight for my libido.
    “Excuse me?”
    Turning, I find a short, stocky man with dark hair and even darker eyes standing in front of me. He was actually almost a head shorter than me. I knew I was on the tall side for a woman, but never have I felt like a giant like I do right now.
    “Yeah.” Something about the way he was looking at me set me on edge. It was then that Jacob’s words came back to me.
    ‘Trust me, some of these guys are dicks and will do whatever they can to get into your pants.’
    Remembering his words put me on edge even more. Well, I didn’t get to where I am today by getting intimidated by a man. Looking up, I saw Jacob was still busy helping his brothers get things set up for the nuptials.  He was busy, so I would have to handle this on my own should it get to that point.
    “Who you here wit?” His eyes traveled up and down my body as he asked.

    “Well, I don’t think so. If you’ll excuse me,” I turned to start walking away when the guy lifted my dress up.
    “You bastard!” I yelled, unable to control myself.
    “How abouts we disappear in the barn for a bit?” He licked is lips.
    I punched him, then kneed him, hard while yelling at him to keep his dirty grubby hands off me. The man collapsed to the ground. When I looked up, I saw all eyes were on me. Completely embarrassed, I ran off toward the car.
    My arm was grabbed just as I reached the front of Jacob’s car. I knew who it was that grabbed me without even having to look. When he turned me round and tried to hold me against him, I began pounding my fists to his chest.
    “Is this your way of
