Okay, I'm gonna do a chapter for all three couples. I'm saving the best for last though.
A Wonderful Life For The Brady's ~~~~ Chapter 10
The three girls sat in the back of the limousine giggling like three teenagers. Suddenly, the limousine came to a halt and the door opened as someone reached in, put their hand over Mimi's mouth, and helped her out of the car. The door shut and the limousine was off.
Philip slowly removed his hand from over Mimi's mouth and look off her blindfold.
"Philip!" Mimi shrieked looking around at the candlelit picnic in front of her.
"Surprise," Philip said as he kissed her gently on the lips. "You do realize what today is, don't you?"
"Yes," Mimi said as she thought back seven years ago to that night Philip had admitted his true feelings towards her. "How could a girl forget the first time the love of her life told her that he loved her?"
"And I still do," Philip said. "I still love you, Miriam Kiriakis, and I always will."
"I love you too," Mimi said looking at him and smiling.
He pulled her towards him as they kissed. They both sat down on the blanket Philip had laid down on the grass. He took out a bottle of champagne and started to pour some into the glass beside her.
"Um... Honey, I think I'm gonna have to pass on that," Mimi said as she waved her hand motioning him to stop.
"Why? You've never passed up champagne before. What's the matter?" he asked curiously.
"Well, I was gonna wait until later to tell you, but I guess I can't wait any longer. Honey, we're having a baby!" Mimi exclaimed.
"What?!" Philip asked. He stood up and helped her up also. "That's so great!" he said as he kissed her.
"I know," Mimi said kissing him back.
Mimi and Philip laid down on the blanket, Mimi's head on Philip's chest and his hand on her stomach, as they looked at the stars.
"You know," he said. "This was the how we laid that first night we found out you were pregnant the first time."
"I know," Mimi replied, "but one thing's missing."
"And what would that be?" Philip asked.
Mimi moved closer to his neck and nestled her head in his neck.
"This," she said as she sat up and pulled a wedding band out of her small, black purse.
Philip looked at her. "You do know that I can't wear that," he said.
"You can now," Mimi said. "I had it resized, and I got it back from the jeweler today. I just couldn't stand my handsome husband going around without the other women knowing that he is a married man."
"Mimi, you know they could never take me away from you," Philip replied.
"I know, but I just wanted to make sure they knew," she smiled. "Now, let's do this right. Stand up," Mimi said standing up. She took the ring and Philip's left hand. "With this ring, I thee wed," she said remembering the day she had said those exact same words in front on their family and friends. A single tear dropped from her eye as Philip reached over to wipe it away with his thumb.
"Now you may kiss the bride," Philip said as he leaned in to kiss Mimi. Mimi kissed him back, passionately, as the two stood there dancing to the music playing on the c.d. player, all music from special points in their lives. Their wedding, their honeymoon, their first dance together, every song Philip could think of to fit onto one c.d.

The limousine drove on until they stopped again and the door opened as a mysterious hand reached in and covered Chloe's mouth and helped her from the car.
