American Honey
Chapter 20
As soon as Maxie's scream echoed through the hallway the gang scattered in all directions, "I heard the buffet is great." Robin commented as she grabbed Patrick hurried for the stairs. Kristina shot Sam a glance before the both raced towards the elevators.
Which left a stunned Jason and Ethan just standing in front of the two doors, just as Maxie flung the door open with nothing but a sheet on. "Johnny I am going to kill you." Maxie lectured as she moved out of the room and across the hall as she tried to pull her unzipped suitcase, which only caused the clothes to spill out across the hallway.
"Maxie I don't remember anything about last night." Johnny mumbled as he leaned against the door frame in just his boxers and a tux printed on a t-shirt, "For all I know you drugged me into marrying you." He added with a frown and caused the blonde to whip around, "Now I am going to be forced to listen to you for the rest of my life."
"Oh, yes Johnny because my dream had always been to marry you in Atlantic City and not remember it at all." Maxie replied sarcastically. Before she turned her attention to the door and tried to open it, she finally gave up and started to slam on the door. Ethan quietly reached into his pocket and handed the key to the blonde as Jason made his get away.
"You have a little something on your face by the way." Ethan smirked to Johnny as he motioned to the drawn on mustache on the older man's face before he followed Jason towards the elevator.
"Remind me to never piss off Kristina or Sam." Ethan spoke once they reached the elevator and headed down to the main lobby.

"When you all flock down like this, it makes me very nervous." Alexis observed as all her children came crashing into the cafe at the same time from different directions.
"Maybe because your children are took much for you to control." Helena muttered as she drank her tea with a smirk.
"You are more then welcome to try and kidnap them again." Alexis offered, "I am sure you will return them with in a week." She laughed as she took a bit of her egg.
"I think it would be two days." Mac argued.
"Would you like some milk in your coffee?" Helena asked with a sly smile as she watched her son-in-law.
"There is no way you got poison through airport security, I am surprised you got your broom through." Mac snapped.
"My mother is not a witch." Alexis replied with a sharp tone, "She is the devil." Alexis corrected as she set her fork down and then turned her attention to her daughters, "What do I need to mentally prepare myself for?"
"I am pretty sure Jason just proposed to Sam." Patrick answered, "But I can't be too sure, they were practically having sex in the hallway."
"I do not want to know about my children's sex lives. I feel dirty just saying those words." Mac muttered.
"Why don't you share some new information with us?" Alexis said as she turned her attention to Patrick, "We all know that Sam and Jason are going to get married at some point." She added as she took a bite of her toast.
"How on earth could you let this happen!" A voice screeched from behind the table which caused everyone to quickly turn around and face the blonde, "You are my sister's it is your job to look after me."
"It is also your job to keep each others secrets." Kristina added with a smile.
"How the hell did you allow me to get drunk enough to get married?" Johnny asked as he looked from Sam to Patrick, "You are supposed to be my best friends."
"You act as if you are surprised that we encouraged this event to happen." Patrick smirked as he leaned back into his chair.
"Why are you talking like that?" Johnny asked, almost whined.
"It makes me sound more sophisticated."
"Define it." Johnny ordered as he glared at the man.
"Do you know what is going on here?" Mac asked as he looked from Alan to Alexis.
"I think that your son isn't the only one that got married on this trip." Alan answered with a frown.
"Maxie, how on earth did you get drunk enough to get married?" Alexis asked as she looked at her daughter shocked.
"Why don't you ask those three how this happened?" Maxie countered as she pointed towards her three sisters that sat on the other side of the table.
"Mom, she announced to the whole hotel that I was not longer a you know." Kristina defended.
"Pure." Maxie finished with a smirk.
"So, because your sister outed a secret, you got her drunk and allowed her to get married." Alexis concluded, Both girls nodded before Alexis started, "So, it is Monday."
"Mom!"
"Maxie you should know better. If you can't take it then don't dish it out." Alexis sighed as she grabbed her plate and headed out of the room.
"You have the best mom ever." Jason smirked as he put an arm around Sam's chair.
"You should get used to it, she is going to be our mother-in law soon." Patrick smirked as she put an arm around Robin.
"Is that your way of proposing."
"Can we just stop with the whole marriage joking around thing please." Sam and Robin said in unison before the both followed Alexis out of the room.

Three days later the group found themselves at the Port Charles Airport waiting for a flight back to North Carolina. The group had just arrived back from Atlantic City the night before and had enough time to quickly pack get a few hours asleep and make it to the airport for their five am flight. Time had slipped away from the Scorpio clan and Kristina and Molly were going to start school in just a few days.
"I am so glad to be going home." Mac sighed as he placed the tickets in his carry on bag and then slipped into the seat next to Alexis.
"You have to admit, it had been a crazy but interesting trip." Alexis yawned as she leaned her head against Mac's shoulder.
"The good part is that your mother is still in Atlantic City." Mac smiled as he leaned his head against Alexis's. The family might have just told Helena the flight left a few hours later then it actually did.
"Have you thought of a way to get Maxie and Johnny out of this mess?" Mac asked as he glanced down at his wife who had her eyes close.
"Honey we still have four hours before we get home, I am going to enjoy this till I have to get back to work." Alexis signed with a sigh, "Anyway it was all a prank, the girls would never really let Maxie get married."
"You have let me go around thinking I was dumb enough to get married while I was drunk." Maxie squealed as she jumped up from the floor where she had been dozing off.
"About time you realized it." Johnny chided as he pulled his hood over his head and turned over to face the wall.
"You knew it was all fake."
"I found out the day after. We all know that Sam is unable to keep a secret." Johnny mumbled.
"You were supposed to tell her Jonathan." Sam yelled as she looked over the laptop that sat on Molly's lap with Sam and Robin on either side of her.
"That was just one option, I chose the more fun one." He muttered before he pulled his sunglasses on and put his ear-buds in. Maxie just started at the three before she stomped off towards one of the food stalls.
"What about this one?" Molly asked as she typed away on the laptop.
"It has a pool and is right on the water." Robin commented as she read aloud.
"Three bedrooms and an apartment above the garage." Sam continued as she played with Jason's hair who was passed out on the floor next to Sam with his head in her lap.
"More than enough space." Molly commented.
"What are you three doing?" Jason asked as he opened his eyes and looked up at Sam who just smiled down at him and continued to play with his hair.
"Talking about how much I love you."
"Sweet but it is not going to work." Jason smirked as he sat up and easily lifted Sam so she was on his lap and he had better access to the screen.
"House listings in Willow's Creek." He read aloud after a second.
"Well, were did you think you were going to live." Robin asked as she looked at the man, "Your mother also gave Sam strict orders to pick out a house big enough for all of us."
"You are house shopping for us?" Jason asked Sam as her cheeks turned red.
"Well I just …. I am. Yes I am."
"Alright." Jason smirked as he tightened his grip around Sam's waist, "Just to be on the safe side who is living in the house?"
"Robin, Emily and I and you three men are going to live in the apartment." She answered just as a security guard came over to the group and came to a stop in front of Johnny.
"Sir we are going to need you to come with us, there are some questions we need to ask you." The man ask and held Johnny stand and escorted him down the hall.
