Blue Velvet

When Patrick Holt’s ex-boyfriend Clay Teal asks him to serve as the best man in his wedding to the man he left Patrick for, Patrick initially balks at the request. Even though he and Clay have been on fairly good terms since their breakup, Patrick is still bitter about the way Clay dumped him. But after Patrick’s new boyfriend convinces him that being a part of Clay’s wedding would help to resolve the years of “issues” between the two men, Patrick reluctantly agrees. In the weeks leading up to the big day, Patrick discovers he’s having a very hard time dealing with Clay’s upcoming nuptials. He also finds himself thinking more about his failed relationship with Clay and the events that led to their breakup. And, at the center of it all, was one lovely blue velvet jacket. Will the same problems follow him into his new relationship?

Chapter 7

Clay and I spoke briefly about the wedding, and before we ended the call, he told me he’d be in touch with additional information about the ceremony.

Afterward, I stared at my phone, wondering if I’d done the right thing in agreeing to serve as his best man. Even though I agreed with Eric that Clay and I needed to bury the hatchet, I wasn’t sure that being the best man in his wedding would accomplish that task. What if I had a meltdown before or during the ceremony and ended up making a fool of myself or, even worse, got into a public brawl with him? And what about Dean? I’d never even met the man and now I’d committed to standing up in his wedding for my ex. Just the thought of it all made me sick.

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, I felt edgy. As much as I tried to put the event out of my mind, it lingered there, like a tumor.
