Julie took about an hour and a half. She handed the saleslady all of her items, then open her purse and took out her dad's credit card. After everything was paid for Portman took the bags "You really want to carry all of them?"

"Yeah"

They then made their way over to the men's department. It took a little more than an hour to get everything. Dean picked up his bags and they made their way back out. "Are you sure you don't want me to carry anything?"

"I'm sure"

"We should drop all of this stuff off in my hotel room before we go to lunch," Julie said while opening the cab door.

"Works for me"

Julie told the driver the name of her hotel and they took off. When they entered the suite Dean put everything down on the couch.

"So how about the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch?" Dean asked.

"Sounds good, we should probably call for reservation."

Dean picked up the phone and had the operator connect him. He made the reservations then hung up. "We have an hour."

"An hour? Do you just want to stay here until then?"

"Sure"

"Make yourself comfortable, I'm gong to put this stuff away."

"Do you have room?"

"I figured I would get some shopping in. My suitcases are only half full."

"I have this mental picture of my arriving at school with boxes full of your stuff."

"See, now that's an idea too!"

"That would be a great one to explain. 'So what's that box?' Oh it's just all of Julie's stuff," he said with a smile.

"Shut up and hand me that bag, would you"

"Yes ma'am," he said, then started laughing.

"What?"

"I was just thinking about the first time we were ever alone."

"The Iceland game, when we were both thrown out."
"What were you thrown out for?"

"Intent to injure. Two of them said I shouldn't be playing hockey, so I kneed them with my guards."

"Ouch!"

"Oh and bashing and flipping them onto the ice didn't hurt?"

"Probably did, but I only played three seconds of the game."

"I don't think I actually got any game time. As I recall, when I came into the locker room you were throwing quite the tantrum. Then you got escorted out of the arena."

"Oh yeah"

"You missed the greatest prank Freshman year."

"The fire ants, Fulton told me about that."

"You should have been there."

"I'm glad Bombay talked me into coming."

"So am I"

They spent the rest of the hour reminiscing about all the things the Ducks had done. They left the hotel and arrived at the Hard Rock .

"It's all going to be different after this isn't it?" Julie asked. "No college is going to want all of us."

"You never know. Who'd have thought we'd be in the Junior Goodwill Games, let alone win them. Then the scholarships, them changing from the Warriors to the Ducks."

"I guess you're right"

"So what should we do before we have to be back at the office?"

"Let's take a walk on the shore."

"Did you bring your blades?"

"Yeah, why?"

"They have a walkway on the beach. We should go blading down it."

"Sounds like fun."
