As it turned out the guys were late getting to the wedding and they had thought a number of times on thier madcap ride back to Charming that they were not going to make it in time. To start with when they got back finally to the motel, the manager had thrown a fit when he realised the state that the rooms which they had occupied were in and had threatened to call the police but after much discussion with Bobby because none of their threats had worked, he had only relented in the end when one of the other guests had recognised Bobby as an 'Elvis' impersonator and had made a deal with Bobby. Six free shows and he would drop the whole matter knowing that he would not back down any other way, Bobby agreed not that he had any intention of doing the shows but he just said that so they could start their desperate ride back to Charming.
In the meantime while Bobby had been negotiating with the motel manager the other guys had packed his gear as well as thier own and got their bikes and the van ready, Happy had taken the prospect to one side and had made it known to him that he knew all about his plan to spike everyone's drinks and that he could expect retaliation when they all finally got back to Charming. The lad had tried to tell him that he had not spiked anyone's drink but Happy was hearing none of it. As it turned out the lad was telling the truth, when he had gone to spike everyone's drinks the night before he had been unable to find the drug some thieving little toe rag had nicked it from his backpack. As there was only one other person who knew he had the drug he had a pretty good idea who it was.
Finally and with only three hours left until the wedding they had left L.A and started the two hour long journey back to Charming with the hope that luck would be on thier side and they would make it with an hour to spare. Unfortunetly luck was not with them, an hour out from Charming they had come upon an accident that had blocked the road and it was another two hours before they got to the outskirts of Charming.
"WHERE ARE THEY?"
Gemma yelled at her husband who at that moment was trying to calm his irate wife down. Piney was getting concerned as well, the guys were supposed to have been there at least an hour before and although Lyla looked calm he knew that she was anything but.
"They'll be here soon darling, Opie loves ya too much not to turn up."
"I know he will be here Piney but I can't help worrying." Lyla told the man who was like a father to her standing next to her.
"Here." She looked over and noticed him holding a roll up out to her, she sniffed tentatively and realised what it was, she really didn't want to be high on her wedding day but one puff wouldn't hurt surely she thought as she inhaled deeply. As she let out the smoke from her lungs she heard the sound of bikes rolling up and saw the missing batchelor party arriving at last. Both she and Piney looked at the heavens as if to say 'Thankyou God."
After the guys had finally got there and the ceremony had taken place, the rest of the group sat around a table breathing a sigh of relief that they had made it. Bobby sitting back on his chair was just thankful that at least they had not permanent reminders of the last few days and looking over at the rest of them he noticed that Juice was missing.
"Where's Juice?"
Juice had wandered back to is bike to get his camera from his backpack he knew no one could remember what had happened over the past few days but he was fairly certain that he had take some pictures and if so maybe they might jolt some of their memories but as he pulled his camera out of his pack on turned it on he noticed that there was no pictures on it. He checked inside for the memory chip and found it was not in the camera 'thats weird' he thought 'I am certain I put a memory chip in it.' Juice was disturbed by this, it was not something he would forget to do and it bugged him that he could not remember. With a sigh he put the camera back in his backpack and went back to join the others. Unaware that he was being watched by one of the wedding guests, a wedding guest who had just removed the memory chip from his camera.
A/N That's all folks, finished at last. Hope you enjoyed reading it but I had got to the stage where I needed to put this story to sleep. As always please review and let me know what you thought.
