Cody strolled through the streets of Montreal leisurely. After spending 3 years in Paris, it felt great to be back. After Cascadia, she had gone to Paris to visit her mother but ended up staying there. She got the job as a head journalist/photographer for a magazine and also worked part time as a model after the insistence of a modelling agency that she had been writing about. She had it all: fame, beauty, money, status . . . but then again, she felt like she had nothing. She missed her friends, her dad; she missed Montreal.
All her friends had become famous by staying in Canada. Tanis was a famous tennis star and had gotten engaged to a top player and was currently living with him in Sherbrooke. Adena was also a famous tennis star while Cameron took over his dad's business and they were dating. And Squib . . . he had recently won Wimbledon and that's all she knew. She never really had much contact with him after leaving for Paris.
Right now, she was standing in the entrance of a club. Tonight, she'd live a little and have loads of fun. Tomorrow, she'd go meet her friends and get on with life.
Making her way through the throng of people was tough; it was so crowded. She finally arrived at the back which was the bar. Immediately, some guy came and asked her to dance with him and she said yes. After half an hour of dancing with different guys, she came back to the bar, exhausted.
"Dance with me?" someone asked behind her.
She turned around to say no but did a double take. "Squib!"
He looked shocked too. "Cody?
They stood staring at each other until both said simultaneously, "what are you doing here?" They laughed together.
"It's been so long since I last saw you," Cody said after.
"You just had to go to France too, didn't you?" he smiled slightly when she said nothing. "Well this calls for a celebration! Two vodkas on the rocks," he said to the barman and then gave one to Cody. "To our reunion!" he clinked his glass with hers.
"Cheers!" and they both downed the alcohol.

"Urgh," Cody groaned as she opened her eyes. Her head hurt a lot but she was smiling for some reason. Maybe it was the silky sheets or maybe it was the- wait, she didn't have silky sheets . . .
Her hand collided with something solid as she was stretching.
"Ow!" cried the lump beside her.
This woke her up completely. "AHH!" she screamed. She also realized that she was totally nude and pulled the sheets tightly around herself to cover as much a possible.
A blond head came out of the sheets. "My head," he groaned.
"Squib!" Cody shouted surprised just like she had the night before.
"Cody?" Squib asked also surprised like the night before.
"What happened last night?" Cody asked hurriedly.
"I don't remember."
"I don't either."
Squib scratched his head as he sat up and at that moment, he and Cody both saw that he was also naked. Quickly, he pulled the sheet up and Cody turned her head away, blushing.
"I think we . . ." he started.
"I think so too . . ." Cody finished for him, still blushing. She wounded the sheet around herself and stepped away from the bed. "I think I'll shower now." She looked around and saw her clothes in different places of the room and bent to pick them up.
"Cody?" Squib suddenly said.
She looked up.
"When did you get married?"
"I'm not married."
"Then what's that ring?"
She looked at the ring finger of her left hand. Surely enough, there was a beautiful gold wedding there. She looked back at Squib, horrified. "Squib, when did you get married?"
"I'm not-" he suddenly checked his left hand and saw a matching band on his ring finger. His face copied Cody's horrified look.
"The building in front of the club was a wedding chapel," Cody suddenly remembered out loud.
"And we got married there . . ." Squib said what they both were thinking.
