"Luna, can I ask you something?" Leo asked.
"What is it Leo?" Luna asked calmly.
"I'm nervous about messing up for Yusei and Akiza." Leo said. "How can you be so calm?"
"It's going to be ok Leo, I'll be there too." Luna said. "Everything will be fine."
"I guess, thanks Luna." Leo said with a smile.
"No problem." Luna said.

"What does have planned Jack?" Carly asked. "You made it sound on the phone like he had a real plan for today."
"He does, trust me he has something special planned." Jack said. "He didn't tell me everything but he said he's been preparing this for days."
"Knowing Yusei it's going to be something memorable." Misty said calmly. "Do they know where to meet us?"
"You mean Sherry and Kalin, yeah we're all meeting up just outside the restaurant." Crow said. "We can prepare things once we get there."
"That sounds good, and what about Leo and Luna?" Mina asked. "We want this to go off without a hitch."
"You can trust them." Jack said. "Leo and Luna are two of the most trustworthy people in the city."
"You're right, I guess I'm just nervous." Mina said. "It's kind of important."
"Don't worry, everything will be fine." Jack said. "It's going to be fine."

"Where are we going Yusei?" Akiza asked. "We've been riding for a while."
"Just around the next corner, I have a few things planned but I thought we could start with something simple." Yusei said as the two of them raced up to a small park.
"What is this Yusei?" Akiza asked.
"Well, I thought it's cliché but we could have a picnic and then maybe see a movie." Yusei said. "I know it's simple but I thought it would be nice and peaceful before the big day."
"It looks wonderful Yusei, thank you." Akiza said with a smile.
"That smile is just one of the things about you that made me fall in love." Yusei said with a smile before kissing Akiza.

"It's good to see everyone again." Kalin said calmly. "So the two of them finally decided to stop dancing around it?"
"Yeah, Yusei asked her and the wedding is going to be one week from today." Jack said.
"I had a feeling the two of them would end up together." Sherry said. "The question is how are we going to prepare for the ceremony?"
"That's what we're here for." Mina said. "I asked Akiza what she wanted and she only had a few requests. Most importantly was that it was a small celebration."
"Yusei was the same way." Jack said. "The top thing on his list was that it wasn't a huge wedding, they both want it nice and simple."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"I've been giving it some thought Yusei, and I wanted to ask you something about the wedding." Akiza said.
"Actually there was something I wanted to ask you too." Yusei said calmly.
"We were thinking the same thing weren't we?" Akiza said with a smile.
"Yeah, just nice and small with our friends." Yusei said. "We don't need a huge celebration."
"I agree. That would be perfect." Akiza said as she kissed Yusei again.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"So do you guys think that would be enough?" Misty asked.
"It should be fine, everything will work out." Jack said. "I know it will be perfect."
"You're right Jack, this is going to be a wedding none of us will ever forget." Carly said with a smile.
"I agree Carly, I can hardly wait for the wedding." Mina said with a smile.
"I'll go tell Leo and Luna what we planned." Kalin said. "I'll see you guys later."
"Right, see you at the wedding Kalin." Crow said as calmly.

"Director, you have an incoming call from the Facility." said a sector security officer.
"Patch him through." Lazar said calmly before a man appeared on a monitor. "What do I owe the pleasure of your call?"
"I've been looking over the list of people who were admitted to the Facility, and I couldn't help but notice that several of New Domino City's heroes have warrants for their immediate arrest written my predecessor." said the officer on the monitor.
"Those files are null and void. I assure you that those people are extremely trustworthy." Lazar said calmly.
"Of course director, I'm just making sure I do my job correctly." the man said calmly before the monitor turned off.
"I should really take the rest of the day off and spend some time with my family." Lazar said to himself while looking at a picture.

"Before we go Akiza I do have one other small gift for you." Yusei said.
As he said that, Yusei took a small box out of his pocket.
"Yusei, you didn't have to do this." Akiza said.
"I know, but I saw it a while ago and thought of you." Yusei said handing her the box.
"Thank you, that was very sweet." Akiza said opening the box to reveal a necklace with two intertwined ruby roses. "It's beautiful."
"Like I said, it reminded me of you." Yusei said helping her put on the necklace. "It's a beautiful rose necklace for a beautiful woman."
"You're one of a kind Yusei, I'm lucky to have met you." Akiza said with a smile.
"That makes two of us Akiza, I'm lucky that I got to meet you." Yusei said. "So, do you want to go catch a movie?"
"That sounds great, let's go." Akiza said.

"So that's the plan, nice and small but still memorable." Kalin said.
"That sounds perfect, they'll love it." Luna said with a smile.
"Yeah, this is going to be awesome." Leo said.
"Calm down Leo, this is supposed to be a calm event." Luna said.
"I know, but I'm just excited." Leo said.
"I can understand that, you two haven't been to many wedding and you're really close to them." Kalin said. "This is going to be one wedding that everyone will remember for a long time."
(Yusei and Akiza are spending time together and the rest of their friends are preparing for the coming wedding. Next chapter the date will come to an end. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
