didn't work-ABC/Disney still owns them. ;)
A/N: Glad everyone is still enjoying them. I'm trying and trying to keep everyone in this story, but it's getting really hard to do. Have faith though and enjoy.
Rafe looked up from the book he had bought during the layover in Los Angeles at his sweet wife sleeping next to him. This had to be the longest flight ever known to man, but he didn't care. First of all, he was with his wife. Secondly, Caleb couldn't touch them. He leaned over her and looked out the window, "You hear me Caleb? You can't touch us right now, and there is no way you're going to ruin our honeymoon." He gave Alison a kiss on the forehead, and went back to reading his book-though his eyelids were getting heavy.
"Sir, would you like a pillow and blanket?" asked the stewardess as she walked down the aisle with one in her hand already.
"Yes, please," he said as he laid the blanket over him and Alison, and putting the pillow behind his head. Then, curling up next to her he fell asleep.

Ricky was staring out at the stars, and trying to figure out if Casey was up there watching him right then. "I miss you, Case," he said as he kept his eye on one star that seemed to be shinning brighter than any of the others. "I hope you can come back to me soon. Everyone else is so happy here. Last night, at Rafe and Alison's wedding, I seemed so out of place, but I still enjoyed it. Did you watch them dance their first dance together? I wish I could dance with you right now," he said stopping himself. He had never sounded so corny in his life, and didn't know what had come over him.
"Then why don't we?" he heard from behind him. He turned around and saw her standing in front of him, her hands stuck in her back pockets as she gave a half smile. He picked her up off the ground and held on tight, not sure what might happen next.

"Why the long face?" asked Jack as he cleaned down the bar when she walked in wearing a deep purple dress. Her hair was pulled back, and she was trying to put on a happy front, but he could tell she was upset. He took special notice that now on her hand was a gold band.
"Being married is supposed to be a good thing, right?" she said, taking a seat as he went back around the bar. She propped her fist under her chin as he poured her a glass of wine.
"Well, it was for me and Tess for awhile. What's the matter?"
"Oh, if I told you then you'd think I was crazy. Let's just say that marriage isn't all it's cracked up to be," she looked around and didn't see Jamal or Imani. "Where is your best friend these days? Haven't seen him in weeks."
"He's having fun in Alabama still with Imani. Hope to hear from him soon, I need to give him the good news about Rafe and Alison's wedding."
"So they finally did it, huh?" she said taking a sip as a slight smile appeared on her face.
"Yeah, it was at this lovely bed and breakfast. They got the room from some new guy at the gym. Of course, the gym is closed for a week now thanks to them leaving for the honeymoon," he said, noticing he was babbling, and guessing she wasn't interested.
"You know where they went to?"
"Australia," he said as another patron came up, and he went to help them.
She sat there realizing why Caleb was in such a horrid mood this morning. He had probably planned on spilling the beans this morning. She ran her finger along the rim of the glass, trying to decide to tell Caleb where they were or not. She lifted the glass, "To Rafe and Alison, may you continue to overcome everything that comes to you," she said taking the last sip and heading out the door.
