"Luce, I'm here." Mary hollered as she bounded in the front door.
Mary stopped in the forayer and listened. Suddenly, she heard squealing and Lucy came flying in from the kitchen.
"Mary" Lucy shrieked as she grabbed her in a huge hug.
Laughing, Mary pulled back and studied Lucy's face.
Lucy's eyes were sparkling, and a light flush stained her cheeks.
"Yep, you look every bit the blushing bride to be." Mary told her with a grin.
Lucy sighed happily. "I am so happy that Kevin finally asked me to marry him. And I'm so happy that you're here." Lucy told her breathlessly.
Mary grinned. "So where is Kevin?" she asked.
"He's at work. Hey, come on. Let's get you set up in our room." Lucy told her.
Once they got up there, Mary started unpacking while Lucy lounged on her bed.
"Alright, I'm ready for a nice long sister chat." Lucy said as she tucked some pillows behind her head.
"What have you been doing?" Lucy asked her.
Mary glanced up from her unpacking. "Working and studying."
Lucy frowned. "No dating?"
"Nope' Mary stated.
Lucy's frown turned into a look of utter confusion. "Well, why not?"
"Just because." Mary answered.
Lucy continued to stare at her while she unpacked. "Mary, why not?" Lucy pressed.
Mary looked up with a frown on her face. "Lucy, I do not want to talk about this right not," she said firmly.
"Later then?" Lucy asked her hopefully.
Mary gave a small laugh at Lucy's persistent
"Yeah later. Possibly." Mary answered.
Lucy grinned back at her. "It's just, now that I'm getting married I have this urge to fix other people up so that they can hopefully be as happy as Kevin and I are." She confided.
Mary laughed, and shut the closet door with a snap. "Well, I'm done. Let's go say hi to mom, and get something to eat. I am soo hungry. Even after being an airline stewardess I still haven't learned to like the food." Mary told her, which caused Lucy to start giggling as they headed downstairs.
Lucy's infectious giggle soon had Mary laughing as well. So, it was two bright eyed, giggling girls who arrived in the kitchen.
Annie, who had heard them coming, had already set out a plate of brownies.
Smiling, she greeted them at the bottom of the stairs.
"Hey mom" Mary greeted.
Annie grinned and held out her arms, which Mary readily stepped into.
"It's so good to have you home." Annie whispered.
Lucy stood back smiling, and watching her mother and sister/best friend hug.
When they ended their embrace, Lucy had already poured two glasses of milk, and laid out some napkins.
Mary smiled at them both, before sitting down and grabbing a brownie.
"So, what have you been up to lately?" Annie asked Mary.
"Working and studying" Mary replied.
Annie's brow wrinkled at this answer. "No dating?"
Mary sighed. "No dating."
Before Annie could say anything else Lucy spoke up, "She doesn't want to talk about it just yet."
Annie relaxed slightly. "I understand," she said.
Suddenly, Lucy grabbed Mary's arm. "Come on."
"What is it?' Mary asked.
"Come see what mom has been doing to Kevin's apartment." Lucy said excitedly.
"All right' Mary said as she allowed herself to be pulled out of the door, and into the garage apartment.
"So, you and Kevin will be living here after the wedding?" Mary asked as she slowly turned in a circle taking in the apartment.
"Yep" Lucy said happily.
"It's going to be really nice," Mary said.
For several minutes they looked at the apartment, until they heard two male voices coming from below.
"Oh, Kevin's home from work." Lucy said with a big smile.
When Mary didn't say anything Lucy turned and looked at her. "Mary?" She asked when she took in Mary's frozen features.
When Mary opened her mouth and said, "Ben" her voice had taken on an anguished tone.
