"Hey how's the planning going?" asked Jason on his phone outside Kelly's, calling Sam. "Between Brenda, Carly, and Maxie you probably have a pretty big headache by now."

"It's not that bad." said Sam on the other end of the line. "We actually got a lot of stuff done, which reminds me I got a call from Father Coates and they have an opening on September 10th."

"Sounds great," said Jason, "Brenda's not trying to have the spotlight be on her is she?"

"No in fact she helped me a lot." said Sam. "And I actually found the perfect wedding dress for me."

"Ah, I see," said Jason. "Any chance I could see it on you early?"

"No absolutely not." said Sam very seriously. "No way are you seeing this dress, until I walk down the aisle in it."

"Ok, I understand, but suddenly the 10th can't come soon enough. I'll talk to later, bye." said Jason hanging up, after thinking for a moment dialed again. "Diane I need to meet with you, no it's about the wedding and it's important. Ok I'll see you at the penthouse in twenty minutes, thank you."

"So I take it the rumor going around town is true." said Lucky walking up. "You and Sam are getting married."

"Yeah I asked her, gave her the ring, and she said yes." said Jason. "We're getting married next month."

"Congratulations, Jason, I mean it." said Lucky offering a hand, which Jason shook. "For what it's worth, probably not much, I'm happy that it's working out for you."

"Thank you Lucky, I appreciate it." said Jason sincerely. "And for what it's worth I'm sorry it didn't work with you and Elizabeth."

"Thanks, but it was time for us to move on from each other." said Lucky turning to go. "Congratulations again,"

~ 15 minutes later at the Pent House~

"Diane thanks for coming." said Jason opening the door to see his pit-bull attorney. "Now the reason I wanted you to come is about when Sam and I get married."

"Yes I had suspected this." said Diane briskly. "I can certainly draw up a pre-nuptial agreement that will benefit both you and Sam."

"Wait, no that's not what I called you here for." said Jason stopping from legal babble. "It's a personal issue that needs to be addressed. Alexis was less than enthusiastic when we told her the news and now she's actively trying sabotage our chance to get married."

"We both know that Alexis is a stubborn control freak." said Diane. "That being said, what is it that you need from me and can I file it as billable hours?"

"Diane I'm asking you to talk to her." said Jason trying to avoid a headache. "From what I can tell you and Alexis are friends and she values your input. Look Alexis's opinion of me is never going to change, and I wouldn't care if it didn't mean Sam getting the short end of it."

"So you want me to risk Alexis putting a literal spin on the phrase 'shoot the messenger'?" asked Diane attempting to understand the request. "All right for the sake of a nuclear marriage and as a favor to you, I will see what I can do. Just so you know this is going to cost you, my usual fee and then some."

"Thanks Diane," said Jason. "I think you are one of the only people who could get through to Alexis, especially in this situation."

"Keep in mind Jason, this is an attempt to get Alexis to be supportive to her daughter." said Diane walking out the door. "I make no promises on the result."

~30 minutes later at Alexis and Diane's office~

"Alexis there is something very important that you and I need to discuss." said Diane walking into the room. "My client and your client have a chance to get exactly what they want and deserve, and it is your job as an attorney and a woman to put your person feelings aside in the best interest of the client."

"Do you want to catch me up here?" asked Alexis highly confused. "What are talking about?"

"Jason and Sam." said Diane simply. "They are getting married and it is my understanding that you didn't exactly congratulate your daughter on her engagement."

"Would you?" asked Alexis indignantly. "Imagine if it was your daughter marrying someone like Jason, would you be calm and supportive that she was spending her life with someone who is as dangerous as Jason Morgan?"

"I understand you're concerned, but this is not about you." said Diane. "Sam's life with Jason makes her happy, and might I add that whenever they get in to a risky situation they are able to provide ample back up for each other."

"Wait a second," said Alexis as the thought dawned on her. "You said your client, Jason told you to come here and talk me into supporting this travesty didn't he?"

"He may have made the request, but you know I can't violate attorney client privilege." said Diane vaguely, and then receiving a look from Alexis continued. "Alright he did but it was only because are not considering the possibility that this could end well and it is hurting the very daughter you say you want to protect and make sure is happy."

"I of course do want her to be protected and happy." said Alexis noticeably giving in. "But does it really have to be with Jason Morgan."

"I'm sure my mother wouldn't have picked out someone like Max Giambetti for me either." said Diane. "But you can't change who someone wants to be with. So can you swallow that enormous pride of yours and attend your daughter's wedding?"

"I guess it would mean a lot to Sam." said Alexis hesitantly. "Of I'll call her later and tell her if am still welcome I'll be more than happy to come."

"great, shoe sale here I come."
