"That was great! Good job, kid!" Kane said, giving me a pat on the back.
"Arigato! Jeff?"
"Yeah sweetie?" He said, looking at me.
"I'm gonna head back to the hotel and call Usagi."
"Ok. You don't mind that I'm going out with the boys do you?"
"No. Have fun." I said, giving him a smile as I packed my bags. "Don't get too drunk…I hate tending to hung over people, even if I love them."
"I'll keep that in mind." He said, kissing me and running off to catch up with Adam, Matt and Jay.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey…Steph! Matte! Wait up!" I said, hurrying to catch up to Steph as she made her way to her car. "Are you heading back to the hotel?"
"Yeah, need a ride?"
"Yep! So how are you and Hunter doing?"
"We're cool. You totally have to be a bridesmaid at my wedding! I have the dresses in mind and everything…" She ranted about her wedding plans.
"Always a bridesmaid, never a bride." I murmured to myself.
"Huh?" Stephanie asked, trying to reach for her car keys.
"Always a bridesmaid, never a bride." I said louder so she could hear.
"It's not that bad. Would you seriously consider getting married? You are such a party-er, I don't see you as married." She finally got her keys and threw the doors open.
"I know…I mean Jeff and me don't even think about marriage. Its what he fears most in life."
"Wow. Jeff Hardy has a fear?" She asked, joking about his 'fear is just a 4 letter word' attitude. "That's a first."
"I know. Hey, Steph?"
"Yah?"
"You just missed the exit."
"Oh crap!"

I stepped out of the shower and wrapped the towel tighter around my waist. I sat down on the bed and reached for my phone.
"Moshi moshi?" A sleepy, female voice said on the other line.
"It's great to hear your voice, imoutochan." I said to my little sister.
"Oneechan? Is that you, Akiko?"
"It sure is. How goes life?"
"Its okay. I can't believe 3 more weeks! I'm gonna be a mom!"
"I feel sorry for little Ayka. Her mommy is a total dork!"
"I am not!"
"Stephanie and Hunter are getting married. Like the old saying goes, 'Always a bridesmaid, never a bride'. How many has it been?"
"Is your feminine clock telling you to get married?" She joked.
"No…I just…you know. I mean there was Michelle and Amara, You and Darien, Matt and Amy, Ami and Ryo, Rei and Chad, Adam and his wife, Billy and Torrie, am I missing anyone?"
"You forgot Mako and Ken."
"Yeah, and Stephanie and Hunter. That adds to being a bridesmaid nine times. Am I cursed or something?"
"No! Never! I wouldn't allow my daughter's godmother to be doomed."
"Thanks, Serena. Make me feel so much better, why don't you. Three weeks is it?
"Yes!"
"Then I should get 'injured' so I can come see you. I'll talk to the boss."
"Great! You have to be here for this! URRGGG! You would not believe what Sammy did this time!" She said, complaining about our little brother yet again. Hard to believe the boy is 19 and still acts like he's 6.
"Let me guess. He spread peanut butter on your bed again."
"No! He crawled into the crib that took the boys hours to put together and broke the entire thing!"
"Tell him when I come home, he's in big trouble." I was the only one out of the family that could control that boy. "Usagi? I'm gonna let you go. You need your sleep. I'll call about my flight times. Bye, Meatball head."
"Don't call me that! Bye, sister."
"That was great! Good job, kid!" Kane said, giving me a pat on the back.
"Arigato! Jeff?"
"Yeah sweetie?" He said, looking at me.
"I'm gonna head back to the hotel and call Usagi."
