"What's the hurry?" asked Adam as Randy brushed the rest of them upstairs.
"We need to get to the dining hall" said Randy as he moved forward leading the group.
"What's there?" asked Wade following close behind him "And where's Jenny?"
Randy sighed softly, "She's with Christian... he told me if I can get all of you to the dining hall we can settle a deal." He then noticed that everyone was carrying a weapon of some sort. "Where did you get those?"
Adam chuckled as he licked his lips, "We've been playing henchmen killing."
"Henchmen killing? Wow I'm impressed, how many of you guys killed?" asked Randy.
"Plenty, you didn't think that none of us knew what we were doing, did you?" said Alani proudly.
"I've killed more henchmen then Adam" said Eve.
Adam slumped his shoulders, "That's because you went where there were more men" he whinged.
"No, she's just a better henchmen killer than you" said Alani giggling. Eve grinned at Alani.
Adam huffed as he walked closer toward Randy, "So what's the plan?"
"I guess we'll just have to wait and see, what Christian has for us" said Randy.
...
Christian weakly got rolled onto his knees and pulled himself up, he watched Jenny closely as she sat on top of a wooden crate. He flung a hand around to his opposite side where his rib felt injured, he breathed out painfully as he walked toward his object of affection. She stood up as she watched him feebly walked toward her, she felt herself feeling enormous amounts of sympathy toward him. "Maybe you should sit down?" she asked kindly.
"I'm fine" said Christian, "Since when did you care anyway? Your hero of a husband is now here and he thinks he's going to tell you how you feel and how and how to act."
"But he doesn't have a clue how I think" said Jenny, her cheeks becoming more scarlet in colour.
Christian moved closer toward her, his blue eyes looking down on to her, "Jenny, remember when they found you and Randy didn't even remember you. He was telling everyone that you were crazy and foolish for even thinking that you were his wife. I know... I've done some horrible things but making you feel stupid, ignored and mental would be something I would never let myself do."
"I know" she said lowering her head and her lips formed a small, shy smile.
"You know?" exclaimed Christian, who was not quite sure.
She looked up at him, she moved herself closer so their bodies were pressing together. She swung both her arms around his neck gently, "Why do you think I urged him to go away?"
Christian wasn't sure what was happening, but having Jenny so close to him brung a grin to his sadistic face. She moved her arms and moved away from him.
"This whole time, I've wanted to be with Randy but now I know that he was never the right person for me; my parents told me that... everyone told me that. But I acted foolish and look where it got me! We have hardly any money, I mean most of it just goes into our bills and then we go on a cruise and I get stuck on this stupid island and he doesn't even remember me! He acts like I never existed... I was crushed!" she yelled as she paced back and forth in front of Christian.
Christian was feeling pleased and happy at what she was telling him.
"I've just had enough" she said. Jenny turned to Christian, her cheeks turned red again as he lowered her head as she spoke, "I feel like this is almost horrible to say... but I feel like I'm falling for someone else."
"Someone else?" asked Christian who was spilling with excitement.
She nodded as she slowly moved her head up to look at him, "I'm falling for you... Christian."
Christian's eyes grew wide with joy; he had never felt so much happiness in his life. "Me? You're falling for me?"
She giggled as she nodded again shyly, "I love you Christian."
Suddenly Christian felt suspicious, he grabbed on to the back of hair tightly "Wait... how do I know that this isn't some plan that you and Orton haven't devised?"
"If I was still in love with my husband then I wouldn't do this..." she said as she placed her hand into his underwear and grabbed his shaft firmly, jerking it a little bit. She then used her thumb of her free hand and traced his lips before placing a kiss onto them. She slid her tongue in and out of his mouth causing him to feel completely satisfied. She then moved her mouth close to his ear and whispered, "You fucked me so much better than Randy."
Christian grinned so hard he almost looked like the Joker. "I knew you had a thing for me."
"I have a thing for bad boys" she said, "Randy has just gone soft."
Christian combed both of his hands through her hair, "But you know if you're with me, you can have everything but that means goodbye to your friends. I mean you didn't really think I was going to reach an agreement with them did you, I mean I only wanted to keep you."
Jenny pondered at the thought then looked up at smiled, "I never really liked them anyway."
"Alright, my queen... its showtime!" said Christian as he held out his hand. Jenny stared at it before smiling and taking it.
"This is it."
...
The five of them waited in the giant room but most eager was Randy who had his arms crossed as he paced along the hallway the thought of how long he had to wait until he could have his wife back in his sight was unbearable. Alani sat onto of one of the tables; Wade had his arm draped over her small shoulders. The two had their heads close together and were holding each other's hands tightly as they waited. Eve stood behind them as she watched the couple on, she sighed sadly feeling defeated. Adam grasped his hand onto her shoulder, giving her a reassuring smile and nod, "We're going to be okay."
Eve smiled, "We will be."
Suddenly they heard the large doors open and there was Christian, his ribs looked to be bandaged and he had a large grin as he strutted into the hallway. He was still holding onto Jenny, but to everyone's attention he wasn't grabbing her wrist and pulling her along, he had his fingers intertwined with her and they were walking peacefully together. As the two of them came closer, the others noticed that Jenny wasn't angry or looked in strife but she was smiling. The others walked forward toward Randy who had slumped his shoulders and looked at Jenny in betrayal and hurt. He lowered his head and froze. Christian chuckled in victory as he walked toward them, then just to make the situation worse he added a kiss to Jenny's lips and a ferocious kiss at that. The others looked on in disgust and vulgar while Randy was still frozen in his position.
"So... my soon to be wife and I are here to discuss an arrangement or deal with you guys" said Christian.
"Your soon to be wife?" exclaimed Alani who felt disgusted.
"Yes, I know your jealous Alani... but you chose to be with Frankenstein" said Christian.
Wade gritted his teeth and pulled his hand into a fist but Alani calmed him down.
"What's wrong with you Jenny?" asked Adam, "How could you do this? I thought we were your friends... don't you love your husband?"
Jenny sighed, "I did... but you're surely not one to talk to me about friendship, Adam... I mean it wasn't too long ago when you told me I was nothing but some actress who was pretending to be sick so that my husband would actually remember me! You were telling everyone that I was crazy! Didn't you say that?"
"I thought we had moved past that" said Adam, "I saw you as so much more. I lied to you about Randy not wanting you because I wanted to spare his life from this idiot." He pointed to Christian angrily, "Because I know how much you love him."
"It's loved, Adam... get it right" said Christian.
Alani walked toward Jenny, her eyes were brimming with tears as she looked up to her. "I know this can't be true Jenny, you cannot be taking his side over ours. I know how much you love Randy, you could never do this to him, look he loves you so much. He was the one who would go without sleep trying to find you; you cannot do this to him!"
Jenny was silent as she looked at her once friend, "I'm sorry but I just don't love him anymore, I hate him."
"Look if this is some kind of lie; you're trying to feed to us just to keep us alive, we'd rather die than hear you say such things against him. No matter what you're our friend and we love you" said Alani, "You've meant more to me as a friend than anyone has my whole life."
"Come on Jennifer, you can't have this guy in your head. Remember all those times we spent together, the friendship we created... I would never want to give that away" said Wade.
"That's touching of you all to say but this isn't an act and neither do I feel anything toward any of you" said Jenny coldly.
"But..." Alani was stopped. Randy finally unfroze from his position and held his head high.
"So this is what you meant by you having a plan?" said Randy.
"Yes, this is what I meant" said Jenny.
"Just stop badgering her, if that's what she wants then that's what she wants. I still love her even if she hated me, I still think she's the most beautiful woman in the world and if she doesn't want me then let her be" said Randy sounding defeated.
Adam was outraged, "You can't just let her be! She's betrayed you and you've done nothing wrong! She's just being a total bitch!"
"Don't call my soon to be wife that!" yelled Christian.
"You wait till I deal with you" yelled Adam.
"I always kicked your ass anyway" said Christian.
"I'm pretty sure I would kill you right now" said Adam.
"Jenny... you can't listen to anything Christian says" said Eve as she approached her, "He's nothing but disgusting scum that should waste away on this island alone. Trust me you are not on a losing team."
"That's enough!" yelled Christian, "From all of you! Now I was going to be lenient but listening to how you all feel about me and my love has caused me to the cast my judgement as executing you all!"
"You're going to try and kill us?" said Wade, "Not without a fight and I've wanted to get my hands on you for some time."
Christian laughed, "I'm sorry I can hardly hear you with that blithering accent."
He then placed his arm around Jenny's waist, "Well we already made the decision to kill you all before we came here but I just wanted to hear you all wallow in depression over seeing my new fiancé. So I've already sent out a message to all of my men to come and kill you all." He pulled a remote out of his pocket and gloatingly showed to the others, "Now I've already pressed the button so now they will receive a vibration signal so in five seconds they will be here to kill you all."
Wade smirked as he lifted something from the table behind them and threw it on the ground; it was a dead carcass that was buzzing. Christian looked at it in horror as Adam went to grab what was creating the buzzing sound. He found a small, silver metal box, what looked like a walkie talkie; he then pushed a button to stop the vibrating.
"Looks like all your men are dead" said Alani grinning.
Christian's face turned to panic and fear. His arm dropped down to his side as he felt himself want to run for the door. Jenny pushed her leg up and high kicked Christian in his injured ribs which threw him onto the ground. She ran toward Eve and pulled the gun from her and aimed it at Christian's head.
"Did you really think I would ever like someone as disgusting and evil as you? You don't deserve love or sympathy from anyone... you're going to try and kill my friends, my wonderful, kind friends and my husband who of course fucks me better than you!" Jenny screamed at Christian as he lay on the floor, whimpering in fear.
Randy quickly paced toward her; he put his arms around and calmed her down while the others grinned with glee seeing Jenny point the gun at their adversary.
"Just give me the gun Jenny, we got him... now give me the gun, it's over" said Randy.
She slowly handed Randy the gun and huddled her face in his chest, she began crying immensely.
"You did great" said Randy brushing the stray hairs away from her face, "I have never been so proud of you, my beautiful wife."
Jenny smiled at her husband as he took her hand. Randy still had the gun pointed at Christian in case he decided to make a run for it.
Wade and Adam lifted Christian off the ground and threw him onto one of the chairs. The tied him up with some rope that Eve had kept, that was to keep him from escaping.
Alani smiled at Christian as she put her hands on her hips, "Doesn't feel good to be tied up, does it?" She flung her hand toward his cheek, the sound from the slap echoing through the ship. "That's for torturing my friends and ruining my engagement and GIVING ME SCRAPS FOR FOOD!"
"I thought I was supposed to get the first jab at him" said Wade smirking, "But I guess I'll let my soon to be wife get to have the first go."
Wade pulled his hand into a fist and punched his cheek, "That's for taking my love away from me."
"Aw Wade" said Alani as she kissed her fiancé. He kissed her back and the two moved away from Christian.
Eve walked toward Christian, she stared at him still feeling slightly fearful.
"Come on Eve, you got to help me get away from these guys, I still love you" Christian pleaded.
Eve sighed at him and shook her head, "You never give up do you. I'm much more than help to you and I'm actually going to get to go back to living my life and be with someone who will love me and not use me... Goodbye Christian."
She crossed her arms and walked away from him. Christian watched her in fraught, "No wait Eve... wait Eve... come back."
Adam grinned as he pulled a seat and sat next to his old friend, "You know it hurts me to see you have to go."
"So why don't you stop it?" said Christian.
"Well, because maybe if you hadn't had become this crazy, power hungry villain we have all grown to hate, then it would be a different story" said Adam, "And most of all you kept me away from my wife and daughter, not only that you made me forget them, I can never forgive you for that. So I'm sorry old friend... literally you are my old friend now because we are no longer friends."
"But Adam..." Christian stopped as he felt another punch this time toward his mouth.
Adam gave a jab at Christian's rib where he whelped in pain then he left him to go sit with Eve.
Christian looked across the room at Jenny who was sitting with Randy; the couple had finally reunited and were enjoying being back together. "Jenny! Jenny! You can't let this happen to me, I know somewhere inside you still have some feelings for me."
She got off her seat and paced toward him, "You know if I did have some feelings for you, I would just let you go to jail. But because I absolutely despise you I'm just going to feed you some of that powder that you fed everyone us and dump you on this island and we'll jet off."
Christian looked scared as he stared at the angry woman.
Randy came from behind and placed his arm around her waist and pulled her away from him, "Jenny if we leave him here, we'll be just as bad as him. Christian's going to jail for a long time and we'll all be able to go where we've been yearning for... home."
...
ONE YEAR LATER.
"I'm really excited to see everyone" said Alani as she walked toward the table. She carefully pulled down her short, cream coloured one shoulder dress as Wade pulled out her chair for her to sit down.
"Thank you hubby" she said grinning at him. She knew how much Wade didn't enjoy that nickname and how he would cringe every time he heard it.
"You're welcome dear" he said planting a kiss on her lips before sitting down next to her. The large table was awaiting the arrival of the other seven guests whose chairs were left empty.
Alani noticed a little stubble on Wade's jaw line, "You didn't shave?"
"No, I know how you like it when I have some facial hair going on" he said smirking.
She laughed, "Well I do enjoy seeing you clean shaven, but some facial hair is still very sexy."
Wade's cheeks turned a little flustered as he handed her a menu, "Oh, look some of them are here." He pointed her in the entry direction where a couple stood.
"It's Randy and Jenny! We haven't seen them since..." she said.
"Our wedding" said Wade finishing her sentence. Alani smiled at him.
Wade and Alani grinned as the couple walked toward them, Randy raised one hand to wave at them and his free hand was grasped onto Jenny's as she carefully walked toward them.
"Wow, Jenny look at you" said Alani in excitement as she went to hug them.
"I know, I'm about five months pregnant" said Jenny touching her slightly larger stomach, "It's so good to see you guys. How was the honeymoon?"
Alani looked at Wade, "Well, we decided to just take a drive to the country, we wanted to stay as much away from cruises or beaches as possible. But it was very romantic."
Jenny smiled, "I understand you."
Randy shook Wade's hand firmly, "How are you and the Mrs going?"
"Actually we've been doing really great; Alani has actually been bothering about having one of those as well" said Wade staring at Jenny's stomach.
"Well when we pop out ours, I'll let you know" said Randy as he pulled out Jenny's chair for her.
"How are you guys doing?" asked Wade.
"Well Jenny got promoted as being a deputy principal at the school" said Randy.
"Wow, that's fantastic" said Alani.
"Yeah but I didn't take it, with having the baby and all these extra responsibilities it'll just be too overwhelming, I just really want to teach.. That's all" said Jenny, "But it's alright because my husband got promoted and he's now working as one of the leading businessman of the construction company."
"Congratulations Randy" said Wade.
"Thank you, I'm really happy to just be able to provide for my wife and our new baby" said Randy planting a kiss on his wife's lips.
"That must be the rest coming now" said Alani as she looked over.
"Aww doesn't Scarlet look adorable" said Jenny.
They all stood up to greet the others. There was Adam and Lita who were holding onto their daughter Scarlet, who was in the middle.
"Hey everyone" said Adam happily.
"Hi Jenny... Hi Alani" said Lita as she hugged them.
"Hello Scarlet" said Alani as she kneeled down to cuddle her. The little girl grinned shyly, her hair was red like her mother's but her facial features were from her mischievous father.
Behind the family was Eve, she looked absolutely gorgeous and holding onto her hand was a tall, muscular man who had a dark, brunette ponytail and blue eyes. "Hello everyone" he said in his Scottish accent.
"Hey Drew" bellowed Wade shaking his friend's hand.
"Hi Eve" said Alani, "Hi Drew, looks like you haven't gotten away from our friend since you guys met at our wedding."
Drew kissed Eve softly on her lips, "I can't get enough of her, she's perfect."
Eve was honoured by his kind words and kissed him back. Drew grabbed her waist and led her toward their seats.
"You two make a great couple" said Jenny.
"Yeah, I definitely approve" said Randy winking at Eve.
Eve grinned, "I'm glad you do."
Drew gulped down, "So do I."
Jenny smiled, "You don't need to fear him Drew, he's nothing but a big softie."
"Only to my wife" said Randy as he gazed at her.
"But trust me, he's an awesome guy because his friend's with my amazing husband" said Alani.
"See Drew, you'll be fine" said Wade, "My life turned out perfect."
"I'm just thankful everyday that Adam came back home to us" said Lita.
Adam kissed his wife, "I was trying everything to come back home to you."
"Believe me, he was" said Alani.
Lita smiled at her husband, "Scarlet and her mother are grateful to have you."
"As am I" said Adam as he cuddled his daughter.
"Alright enough of this sappy stuff, I think we should all raise our champagne glasses up except Jenny who is drinking something non-alcoholic and toast that we are all very tough, determined and courageous people who I greatly admire and love" announced Wade standing up, he gawked down at Alani
"Aw" said Alani as she placed her hand on her chest. Jenny chuckled as she raised her orange juice filled wine glass.
"I want to toast to friends, family and the fact that through thick and thin we were there for one another. Now we are all home and going through different stages in our lives but the one thing I learned from this entire experience was to never hate your home, because sometimes it's the place you want to be most. Cheers" said Wade.
"Cheers" they all yelled as they clinked their glasses together.
