Victor and Nikki made their way inside the club at 11:30 for their brunch. Nick and Victoria sat at a table for four in the middle of the room, "Mom, Dad over here!" Victoria called waving to her parents. "Hello there." Nikki said sitting down "You finally woke up?" Victoria laughed "Yeah, I did." Nikki replied "So is there a reason why you wanted us here?" Victor asked "No, we just wanted to spend time with you guys before your wedding." Nick said "Oh, Thanksgiving, would you both like to bring your families over to the ranch?" Nikki asked "I'd love that, oh and I checked to see if Reed can come down for the wedding and JT said yes!" Victoria exclaimed. "Oh that's wonderful! When is he coming?" Nikki asked "Wednesday." Victoria said "What about you son?" Victor asked Nick "I'll come on one condition," Nick began "Yes you can bring Avery." Victor said "How did you know?" Nick asked blushing "It's easy to tell you really like her." Nikki said "That's right I do, would you like her to make anything?" Nick asked "A pie would be nice but she doesn't have to." Nikki replied "I'll put in a request." "Thank you Nicholas." "Oh, I have some news of my own." Victor said "What?" Nikki asked "I got a call from Adam and he agreed to be in the wedding." "Well, that's good." Nikki said trying to sound happy. The truth was she didn't want Adam there spoiling the entire event. "I know what you're thinking sweetheart but it will be fine." Victor reassured her. "I certainly hope you're right." Nikki said.
After brunch Victor headed into Newman with Nikki tagging along. He sat at his desk on his computer while she was on the couch making wedding plans. Outside the closed wooden office door Adam stood with Chelsea; Adam had convinced Chelsea that today would be a good day for her to observe Nikki and Victor. "What are we doing here? This is so stupid." Chelsea hissed "Trust me you're gonna get a kick out of this. If you haven't noticed anything before you're gonna be surprised." Adam said knocking on the door. "Come in!" Victor shouted. Adam opened the door and walked in with Chelsea behind him, "Hello son, Chelsea." Victor said "Hello Dad." Adam said. Chelsea looked around the room; Nikki was sitting on the couch with papers all around her. "What brings you two here?" Victor asked. Adam and Chelsea had come up with a lie before they left the house so they wouldn't seem so suspicious, "We wanted to see if you needed any help wedding planning." Adam replied. "That's all Nikki's doing, but son I could use some help here with the company work." Victor said Adam looked at Chelsea; she nodded at him, "Okay then I suppose I could help you." Adam agreed. "Good, Chelsea you can have a seat wherever you'd like." Victor said "Okay thank you," Chelsea said sitting in one of the chairs. Chelsea looked at Nikki again; she hadn't said a word the entire time they had been there. She was now flipping through a catalogue of bouquets, "Have you found a dress yet?" Chelsea asked trying to make conversation. Nikki looked up from the catalogue, "I found a few I like but not one in particular yet." She replied "Oh, well what are the wedding colors?" "Red and white" "That's pretty, you know I-"Nikki cut Chelsea off, "Victor!" she wined "Yes sweetheart?" Victor asked "Let's go get us some coffee." Nikki said standing up. "Sweetheart, I'm very busy since I took yesterday off to be with you so-""Now." Nikki said narrowing her eyes. "Okay," Victor sighed getting up. "Adam, Chelsea you're welcome to join us or you can stay here until we get back." Victor said "We'll stay thank you." Adam said "Alright, let's go Nikki." Victor said taking Nikki's hand.
When they were gone Adam looked at Chelsea, "What did you notice?" he asked "That she's very demanding." Chelsea replied. "Yeah, my father never used to be like that, I mean if he had work to do at Newman he would get that done before he did anything else. She has completely changed him." "Why is she even here anyway?" "I have no idea, I assume she's pulling the 'I'm too scared to stay at the ranch by myself.' Of course my father is gonna fall for it." "Well, I didn't really get to see much what are we supposed to wait until they get back?" "Yes we are." "Great." Chelsea huffed. Victor dragged Nikki into the coffee house, "Okay what do you want?" he growled frustrated with her. "What's your problem?" she asked "I need to get a lot of work done in a short period of time before Thanksgiving and then the wedding." "Yeah well it was fine until Adam and Chelsea showed up wasn't it?" "Yes sweetheart I suppose it was but again they're making an effort and so are we. Now what kind of coffee do you want?" "Oh just my regular I guess." She sighed "Now what's your problem?" he asked "I just want you all to myself and nobody seems to understand that Victor." "Oh sweetheart that sounds a bit selfish don't you think?" he chuckled "Victor I'm serious. Why won't people just leave us alone?" "Probably because we are very high authorities in the city." "Oh I'm sure that's the reason." "You think of a reason while you drink this then." He said handing her the coffee. "Do we have to go back there?" she asked as she followed him out the door. "You can go home but I have work to do." He said "I can think of other things that you would enjoy doing much more than working with Adam." She said winking at him. "Nikki," he said trying not to capture her with a kiss. She knew that this was in fact torturing him from the inside out and she was enjoying every second of it. "Come home with me, I'll make it worth your while." She said licking her lips. "I can't even look at you right now." He said and walked out the second door. "Victor wait!" she called running after him.
She followed him all the way to Newman; when they got in the elevator he spoke to her, "Put the coffee on the floor." He said "What?" she asked "You heard me, do it now." He growled. "Alright, alright." Nikki snapped putting her cup on the floor. Within seconds Victor had her pinned against the wall; his body against hers and his lips all over her face. "Oh," Nikki cried gasping for air. She felt very pleased with herself; the teasing had set him off. She felt his hands gripping her hips tighter and his lips on her neck. Nikki couldn't help but lean her head back, "Victor" she breathed. Back in Victor's office just a few floors up Adam and Chelsea were becoming very frustrated with the fact Victor and Nikki weren't back yet. "How long does it take to get coffee?" Adam questioned pacing the room. "I don't know maybe we should just wait until the wedding for you to show me what exactly you're talking about." Chelsea said standing up. "Okay fine, let's go out to dinner." Adam said leading her out the door. They walked towards the elevator and heard the loud ding sound. The doors opened and both Adam and Chelsea froze. There Victor was, all over Nikki, she was pressed up against the wall. "Oh my gosh!" Chelsea gasped in horror. Victor pulled away from Nikki and turned to look at them, "UHHHH!" Nikki screamed and ran out of the elevator. Adam stood there awkwardly staring at his father, "I'm sorry you had to see that." Victor said "Don't apologize just try to be more professional." Adam huffed stepping into the elevator. Chelsea followed him and the doors closed. "I found the coffee." Chelsea said spotting Nikki's cup in the corner. "I could care less about the coffee now. Did you see that?" Adam asked "Unfortunately yes. I believe you now." She replied "If you think that's bad just wait until the wedding and then there is the reception" "Adam! That's enough I've seen all I need to." "Don't say I didn't warn you." "They're not even married yet and they're already in the honeymoon phase." Chelsea said shivering at the thought. "The whole situation is just bazar." Adam told her. "I agree with you one hundred percent."
Victor walked into his office and saw Nikki looking out the large window. He listened closely, she was crying, "Sweetheart, what's the matter?" he asked walking over to her. "You wouldn't care; all you want to do is work." She snapped not bothering to turn around. "Now wait just a minute, if you remember I took yesterday off to be with you and the days before that." Victor said trying to stay calm. "Yes and that proves that you would rather be with me then here!" she screamed facing him. "Nikki, we're not gonna do this, not now, not here." "Of course we aren't you've got work to do so you're gonna wait until we get home and then the beast will really come out!" she shouted. "Keep it down and that's not true, I just don't want to fight with you." "Do you honestly think I want to fight with you?" "No I don't think that at all sweetheart." He walked over to her and took her in his arms. She clung to him, "Oh Victor I'm so sorry, I'm being so selfish." She said "It's alright baby I understand. I promise when we go on our honeymoon next weekend you'll have me all to yourself for seven whole days." Nikki looked up at him, "What honeymoon? I didn't know we were taking one this time?" "That's my wedding surprise to you." He smiled at her. "Oh Victor, where are we going?" "Now that you'll just have to wait and see." He chuckled "You're terrible." She laughed. They looked at each other, no need for words; it was all eye contact. He leaned down to kiss her; she kissed back enjoying every second of it to the fullest.
