A.J's P.O.V.

The wedding was cool I guess but I was hungry as fuck.

In the midst of the silence my stomach started to growl erratically.

Jordan looked over at me and started to chuckle.

"Shut up." I whispered.

But then my stomach growled again even louder.

People started to turn their heads towards me and I pretended like I didn't know who was making the noise.

Jordan was turning red from holding in his laughter and I felt another growl coming so I grabbed his arm and pulled him all the way outside with me.

Then he let it all out.

"Oh grow up." I stated.

"That was the best thing ever." He replied.

"Cassidy's gonna bitch at us for walking out early." I said. "But there was no way I was staying in there any longer to let everyone hear my food deprived ass stomach."

"Why didn't you eat anything before you left the house?"

"Because I wasnt hungry! But now... I regret everything."

A short Hispanic guy wearing battered down clothes as if he'd been cooking or something attempted to walk past us and into the building.

"Are you here for the wedding?" Jordan asked.

"Oh no but I-"

"Well there's a wedding going on right now. It'd be a little rude for you to just barge in." I responded.

"No i have to-"

"Can it wait? Whatever it is you have to do?" Asked Jordan.

"Listen my name is Hector and I need to know where to-"

"I don't care what your name is. You can wait." I interrupted.

"No you don't understand. I close in less than-"

"Dude just leave.We don't need you distracting from the wedding." Jordan said.

"But they need-"

"They don't need anything. They're fine." He cut him off again.

"They don't?" Hector asked.

"Nope." I replied. "Everything's under control."

He shrugged his shoulder's then walked back to his car. Leaving soon after.

We heard voices and clapping from the inside letting us know that the wedding was over.

We held the doors open for people to come out and each got a smack in the head by Cassidy and Lindsay.

"Ouch!" Jordan exclaimed.

"What was that for?" I followed up, holding the back of my head.

"Leaving early." They said simultaneously.

"Stupid." Jordan mumbled.

"What?" Cassidy asked.

"I didn't even say anything..." He replied as he bucked at her.

Jordan's P.O.V.

The reception party was at a completely different place.

The place was huge and piqued my interest so I decided to explore it a bit.

Down the hall from where the party was happening there was a huge ass bar.

I walked in and was greeted by a large, burly, loud and rowdy white guy that was the bartender.
