Chapter Fifty One

The party at Vince's house had been a huge hit amongst all that attended. Mandy and Adam didn't leave each others side all night. They enjoyed telling people about their engagement and it was obvious to all just how much they really loved each other. Although, Mandy had a hint of regret in the way that Matt found out about it. She wished that she'd been able to tell him the news herself so that she could find out exactly how he felt. She kept telling herself not to worry about it and that she could always talk to him tomorrow after training.

During the night, Vince talked to Jeff and Lily and informed them both that they'd be able to leave for New York tomorrow if they wish. The couple was speechless when they found out. They thanked him as well as asking about the change in decision. Vince simply informed them both how impressed he'd been with Jeff's performances lately and that he deserved a break. He also let them know that he got Allie to change their flight so that they were travelling on the same one as her and Mark.

The next morning Allie and Mark met Lily and Jeff in the member's lounge at the airport. They sat around a table drinking coffee and making light conversation until their flight was called over the PA system. They each finished their coffee before picking up their hand luggage. The four of them then headed off towards their gate for boarding. As they did so Mark and Jeff were stopped several times by fans wanting autographs. The two kindly obliged while Lily and Allie continued on. While they did so they talked about a range of things before deciding to play a little joke on the guys. They both turned around to see the guys surrounded by teenage girls. They looked at each other before Allie said,

"Ready?"

"Like you wouldn't believe" Lily replied and laughed to herself

Moments later Allie and Lily went running up to the guys pushing past the crowds. They each pretended to be huge fans, asking for an autograph. They guys looked at the girls questionably and then each other before doing as they requested. Once Lily got Jeff's signature she pulled him into her arms. He whispered,

"Are you sure this is a good idea?"

"Trust me" is all Lily said before leaning in and kissing him passionately. Allie followed suit but only kissed Mark softly on the cheek, as she didn't want him to get the wrong idea. The crowds that were surrounding them had disappeared. This gave the girls time to grab hold of the guy's hands and quickly lead them off to their boarding gate without anymore interruptions.

After landing in New York they went to collect their luggage before going to the car-hiring desk to pick up the keys to the two cars. Once that was done and both couples had found their respective cars, they headed off to the hotel.

As Adam awoke a smile crept across his face when he thought back to the events from the night before. He looked down at Mandy who was lying next to him with protected by his strong arms.

"Morning Gorgeous" Adam said softly but with no reply from Mandy as she was in deep thought. Adam rolled over and straddled her so that he could get her attention and look her in the eyes.

"Hey is everything ok?" he asked. Mandy shook her head to clear her thoughts and said,

"Yeah of course. I couldn't be happier. I'm just thinking about a few things"

"Anything I can help you with?"

"It's going to sound really dumb though"

"Nothing is ever dumb coming from your mouth. And Mandy I really want to help ... after all we are getting married and married couples

"Ok well I'm thinking about how I'm going to tell my parents but us. I know they are going to be happy but you see they have always wanted me to get married on the beach in Bali. Nothing big ... just family and a few close friends. But that will probably be to difficult to do seeing we live on the other side of the world and all."

"Ah baby you know what, we could always have two ceremonies, one here and one in Bali. What do you think?"

"Oh Adam" Mandy said and reached up and pissed him passionately. When they parted Adam said,

"I take it that you like the idea"

"Like the idea ... I'll show you how much I like the idea"

With that Mandy pulled Adam back down towards her and kissed him deeply. Before long things started to get rather hot and sweaty.

At around 11:15 am they were interrupted by the phone ringing. Mandy pulled away from Adam and reached for the phone. Adam touched her arm and said,

"Let the answering machine get it"

"It might be important" Mandy said as she picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey Mands it's me"

"Hey Matty:

"I'm sorry if I'm interrupting anything but umm we're meant to be training at the moment"

"Oh shit ... I'm so sorry ... I totally lost track of the time - I'll be there shortly"

"That's cool ... see you soon"

"Ok bye" Mandy put the phone down and looked at Adam

"Can we continue this later tonight? Because I have to get to training"

"Of course ... do you want me to give you a lift?"

"No it's ok. I'll take my car and meet up with you before the show" Mandy kissed Adam again before getting up and heading off to the bathroom to take a quick shower before dressing.

As Mandy arrived at the arena she parked her car and grabbed her bag out of the trunk before jogging inside to find Matt. She found him sitting on the edge of the ring in deep thought. So much so he didn't notice her approach him. So Mandy tapped him on the shoulder and said,

"Hey Matty I'm so sorry I'm so late"

"Oh that's cool Mands. You wanna get down to business?"

"Of course"

With that the two got into the ring and started their preparations for that night's show.
