Soph thinks I didn't hear Olivia ask her about Roman. I don't show up to one stupid party and everything goes to shit.

I can't have Sophia have second thoughts about marrying me. I can't. And I sure as hell won't let Roman ruin this for me. Which is why I know exactly who I should call.

"Drew I swear to god if your car got towed again-"

"Nice to talk to you too, Avery."

Avery would be my sister. She is the only one who can put up with my bullshit. Her words, not mine. Like I could have bullshit. I love her more than I love our older brother, Theo. Mainly because Avery hates Roman just as much as I do. Theo, however, being the complete sap that he is, has always seen Soph's side of things. "No one should stand in the way of true love", he's always saying if he isn't drinking at our family dinners. Oh, who am I kidding? He says it even then. Soph always smiles and agrees. Way too enthusiastically if you ask me.

"I assume you want my help?"

"I asked Soph."

"No way. What did she say?"

"Well, let's just say Theo won't be using Gran's ring any time soon."

"Oh my god, that's amazing, Drew! I'm so happy for you."

"Yeah, well..."

"Only you could find a way to make happy news sound pathetic."

"I think something happened between Sophia and Roman."

"After you proposed?"

"Before. On New Year's."

"But you don't know for sure?"

"No."

"On it."

Avery's off the phone before I can even say goodbye. Oh, and I probably should've mentioned. Avery also happens to be a private detective.
