Chapter 14: Maid of Honor

As Lloyd and Scarlet sat in her old bedroom, he stared at her wondering what Storm had meant. Sheen had never met her, Lloyd made sure to keep the red head boy away from her, she was too important. Maybe Storm was trying to get into The Green Ninja's head? But still…It made him worry, the last thing he needed was competition, she said she loved him, but how could he be sure? "Lloyd," Scarlet shouted for the sixth time.

He snapped out of his deep thought, he had seen her lips moving before, but he was in another world. "Huh? What?" he shot himself back into the real world.

She turned onto her side and looked at him. (They were lying in her bed). "Okay, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." He lied, putting his hands behind his head and staring up at the poster of a purple butterfly on her ceiling. "Just sleepy is all…" he used the night as an excuse. It was approaching midnight as the waited up for her parents.

Scarlet shrugged. "You wanna' listen to some music then?" Lloyd nodded and she got up and walked over to her stereo. She picked a CD and put it in the slot. After turning the volume up slightly she took her original spot beside him again. "Just the way you are" by Bruno Mars played which made Lloyd roll his eyes. "This Bruno Mars guy gets more girls than anyone can count, what's his secret?" he thought. Suddenly someone yelled. "We're home!" Scarlet immediately jumped up and turned off the stereo. She grabbed her boyfriend's arm and ran downstairs with him.

There stood two adults, one woman and a man. The woman had caramel colored hair, ginger eyes and freckles; she was in a yellow tank top, slim jeans and black high heeled boots, she had a leather shoulder bag. The man had platinum blonde hair, blue eyes and looked like an older version of Tony; he was in a plain gray business suit and had a briefcase at hand. "Mom, dad," Scarlet waved.

Both adults stared at her before realizing who it was. "How long have I been at work?" her dad asked, looking up and down his daughter's body. "Weren't you eleven a few weeks ago?"

"Uh, it was a bad accident with some tomorrow's tea, didn't you get my note?" she hugged both her parents.

"Yes, but we thought by I aged into my teens, we thought you meant you got a few pimples and started to wear a training bra, not become a full on woman." Her mother remarked.

"Mooommm!" Scarlet whined, but rolled her eyes. "Mom, dad, this is my…" she looked at her dad with a 'don't kill him until you get to know him' look. "Boyfriend…His name's Lloyd Garmadon."

Lloyd smiled and reached out to be one of the participants of a bone crushing hand shake from her father. "Lloyd, this is my mom, Kat and my dad, Vince."

When Kat noticed how Vince shook Lloyd's hand, she tore them apart and glared at her husband. "Are you trying to break the boy's hand? I'm sure he's-" Kat stopped and looked at Lloyd. "Lloyd Garmadon…That sounds…Familiar, wait…Weren't you the one who saved the city?"

"No ma'am; that was my father, Lord Garmadon." Lloyd corrected, trying to be polite.

"Oh…Well, hello, Lloyd." Kat smiled. "What brings you back home, honey?"

Scarlet smiled. "I came back for Haden's wedding…She, uh, asked me to be her maid of honor and Lloyd is one of Storm's groomsmen."

"Well, I didn't exactly agree-" Scarlet elbowed her boyfriend in the stomach and he groaned. "Uh…Yeah, I'm one of his groomsmen…"

Vince smiled, even though they just met, Lloyd could tell a smile hardly ever tugged at the man's lips. "That's good; Storm is such a nice man to marry our daughter, too bad he didn't have a little brother for Scarlet."

"Dad!" Scarlet scolded.

"Vince, be nice." Kat warned him.

"Uh, mom, dad the other ninja are here too, I should introduce them to you." Scarlet grabbed Lloyd's hand and led her parents to find the others.

The next day…

Scarlet sat in the dress shop with Haden's friends, Alex, Natalie and Kendra. Scarlet kept looking at Alex in the corner of her eye, knowing she had slept with Storm, yet she would allow her friend to marry a complete cheater. Haden came out in a long white wedding dress with a sweetheart neck line. Sure, it was plain but it looked like something her sister would definitely wear. "It's beautiful." Scarlet said aloud by accident. Everyone in the room looked to the maid of honor. "Do you really think so?" Haden giggled.

"Yeah, it is." Natalie agreed.

"Your little sister is right, Haden." Kendra nodded.

"I'm sure Storm is gonna' love it." Alex's words earned her a glare from the master of wind. "Of course you know Storm is gonna' love it, back stabber." She thought. Scarlet then positioned herself uncomfortably in her chair, her sister and the other girls had insisted that she didn't wear her ninja suit. So they put her in a royal blue see through shirt with a white tank top underneath, a pair of jeans and purple heels. "Alright, I'll take this dress, but…I don't want this entire day to be about me." Haden smiled at her little sister. "Scarlet, go try on a wedding dress, I wanna' see how you look."

Scarlet nearly spilled the glass of wine she had been given. "I'm sorry?"

"Go try on a dress, just for fun!" Natalie encouraged.

"Maid of honor has to make the bride happy." Kendra smirked.

Alex smiled too and Scarlet sighed. "Fine, but I'm trying on one dress, no more than that."

"Of course, of course, now go and change." Haden ushered her sister towards a rack of dresses.

A few minutes later…

Scarlet walked out of the changing room in a strapless white wedding dress that touched the ground and she walked, a mint green bow was right underneath her chest and small green diamonds were sprinkled on the bustier top of the dress. The other women squealed as they saw her in the dress. "It's so pretty!" Haden examined her sister.

Scarlet looked at herself in a mirror and smiled lightly, not wanting to admit that she liked the looks of the dress. She smiled even more once she imagined herself marrying Lloyd.

"So, does wearing that dress give you any ideas about Lloyd?" It was like Kendra had read Scarlet's mind.

"N-no, of c-course not, Lloyd isn't the type to marry…" she trailed off, brushing back a strand of her hair behind her ear. Was he? Suddenly Scarlet saw a flash of light and heard the women giggling. She turned around and saw Alex holding her cellphone. "Did you just take a picture of me?!"

"Yup', I'm sending it to Storm, if Lloyd isn't the type to marry, then we'll make him the type." Alex smiled.

"What do you mean?"

"You'll see." Haden's smile made her curious.

Meanwhile with Lloyd and the other men…

Lloyd sat; miserable in the tuxedo shop. Storm was being fitted for his tuxedo and so were the other groomsmen; Jacob, Benson and Kendall. Suddenly Storm's phone rang and he flipped it open, only to smirk at The Green Ninja. "Well, Lloyd's got himself a little bride." Storm teased.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Lloyd stood and walked over to glance over the man's shoulder. There on the cellphone screen was a picture of Scarlet in a wedding dress. His stubborn glare had softened and he took the phone from Storm's hands. "So, little man," Jacob patted Lloyd's back. "Does that give you any ideas?"

"W-what?" Lloyd looked up from the photo.

"You know, about oh, I dunno'…tying the knot?" Benson snickered.

"Not so fast, boys, Sheen's still in the game." Storm said as he adjusted his bow tie.

"Sheen?" Lloyd put down the phone.

"Did someone call my name?" a voice asked, everyone looked up and saw a teenage boy with red hair, glasses, green eyes and freckles. His old nasal voice was gone and had turned deeper. Lloyd twitched at the sight of his old enemy.

A/N: Aw, hell yeah! Sheen is back, baby! I was watching the Double Trouble episode when I was inspired to do this twist to the story. Let me know if you think it's a cool idea, or if I should trash it, 'k? Punrockgirl555 is out!
