"Cam, that show was amazing!" Emmett compliments as we all sit down for dinner.

She smiles proudly. "Thanks! I also have another announcement for you. My final surprise!" She says. A tall man walks in our private room she rented at a restaurant. He wears a grey suit, has his dark brown hair slicked back and pretty green eyes.

He walks over to Cam before kissing her forehead. "Sorry I'm late, babe. I didn't mean to miss your show, I got caught up at work," he explains. He takes a seat right next to Cam.

"It's okay, I was about to tell them the news," she explains. He nods, placing a red velvet box right in front of her. "Got it sized finally," he huffs out.

Cam smiles. "This is Evan, my fiance."

The table goes completely silent. Hope and I already know but why aren't the boys excited for her. Grey, Emmett and Zion are all looking at Jet right now. Way to make it obvious, I roll my eyes and clap.

"That's fucking amazing." Hope claps her hands together along with me.

Jet stands up. "Yeah, fucking amazing," he mutters. Evan shoots him an odd look towards his sarcasm. "I'm happy for you Cam. If you're happy, I really am. Excuse me." Jet leaves the room not saying another word.

"That's amazing Cam. Sorry I'm just going to go check on Jet," Zion is the next to leave.

I look at Grey who is basically staring down Evan. I nudge his shoulder and he looks down at me. "Did you know about this?" He whispers. And I nod, bringing my eyebrows together in confusion.

A phone begins ringing, breaking the tension in the room. "Ah work. Only be a second mon amour." Evan kisses Cam's cheek before leaving.

There is a ton of tension in the room right now.

The loud sound of a pop scares the rest of us. We all look at Emmet who has popped open a bottle of champagne. "Congratulations Cam! Now everyone please fucking drink." He almost begs knowing the tension is overbearing. He begins filling up everyone's glass with champagne.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Grey asks as we hold hands and stroll through Paris. I look at him confused. "Cam, getting married."

I shrug and swing our hands between us. "It wasn't my place. She only told me a few hours before you guys anyways," I explain. He doesn't look happy with the decision but I never had time to tell him either way.

"You should've. Jet shouldn't have found out like that, he still loves her deeply."

I shake my head and stop walking. "I can't tell you everything, it wasn't my secret to tell," I make it clear as I speak. I would not betray Cam like that, this is how she wanted to tell him. Zion came back to dinner but Jet never made it back.

Neither did her so-called fiance Evan.

I may not know him but first impressions are everything. He missed one of Cam's most important moments in life. And left as soon as he got to dinner. He could have at least stayed for that.

"Harley that's not the point, Jet is!" He almost sounds angry that I didn't tell him.

I shake my head. "Greyson, I understand it's your job to look out for Jet but Cam is my best friend. I wouldn't do that to her. Jet will be fine and maybe it's the push he needs to get over her, as unexpected as it was he can't expect Cam to not move on." I look up and realize we reached the eiffel tower, it's gorgeous.
