I do not own Rocket Power...
Back to Lucas' bedroom...
"After I was in the surfing contest, daddy and I made up, and I asked him to marry me for real," Reggie told Lucas, who was listening intently. "The beach had a free concert that night and Chasing the Sun played."
"Is that your'a and daddy's favorite band?" Lucas asked.
"They were until they got popular." Reggie chortled.
"Were Uncle Otto, Uncle Twister and Uncle Sammy happy you and daddy got proposed?" Lucas asked.
"They were very happy for me." Reggie giggled at Lucas.
"What happened after you got for real proposed?" Lucas asked.
"Well...once I graduated high school, daddy went back to the Marines shortly after and I started summer classes at the community college so I wouldn't have to take many classes in my real school," Reggie explained to Lucas. "He did come back to see Uncle Otto and Uncle Twister graduate high school, though."
"When did you get married?" Lucas asked.
"We got married when I finished college three months later," Reggie said.
"I think you looked very pretty at your wedding, mommy," Lucas said.
Reggie smiled at her son's compliment. He was so cute and said the cutest things.
"Alright, time for bed now! You have school tomorrow." Reggie started to tuck her son into bed.
Lucas got comfortable and said, "Mommy, can I stay over Uncle Otto's and Aunt Trish's house?"
Yep, Otto married Trish and Lucas would go there when Reggie and Lars needed time alone.
"Maybe when daddy gets back you can," Reggie replied to Lucas.
Lucas smiled as Reggie bent down to kiss him. She shut off his light and Lucas said, "Can we go to Mad Town tomorrow after school?"
"Sure," Reggie said. "Good night, Lucas."
Reggie said and walked out of his room and made her way to her room. The first thing she looked at when she got in her room was her wedding pictures. She gazed at the one of her and Lars kissing on the beach at Ocean Shores. Twister took the picture, and it was beautifully taken. Lars wore his Marine uniform the day he got married. Reggie's dress was a backless white dress. Otto served as her man of honor while Twister served as Lars' best man. Over time, Otto and Lars began to respect one another, which made Reggie happy.
The wedding, as Reggie remembered it was a lot of fun. Rather small with only close family and friends attending but fun. The reception took place on the beach at Ocean Shores. Reggie and Lars' first dance song was, 'All My Life' by KC and Jojo. Dancing with her husband at that moment was magical. She blocked out everyone around them and felt like she and Lars were the only two at that moment. The best was when Lars randomly dipped her back and kissed her in the middle of it all. After their first dance, Reggie shared a dance with Raymundo; then Lars danced with Sandy (of whom was a crying mess) and Reggie and Otto did the running man challenge for their brother/sister dance.
At the wedding, the guys had someone special with them as well. Otto and Trish had shortly got engaged after the wedding, Twister had brought his new girlfriend, Abigail, whom he met in film school and Sam even worked up the courage to ask Sherri out way before the wedding, and they have been going strong since. She was happy for the guys, for they were with girls that made them happy. Even Clio found love with Lars' Marine friend, Greyson, whom she met at the wedding.
The wedding was such a fun night, and the long wait was worth it. The guest included close members from both sides of Lars and Reggie's family, Lars' friends from military school and the Marines, Reggie's friends, Tito, Conroy, Eddie, Oliver and the Stimpletons. The most rememberable part was when Mrs. Stimpleton got wasted and started to hit on Lars' Marine friends. In the middle of looking at wedding photos, Reggie felt two hands creep up behind her, and she jumped. She turned around and saw her husband in his Marine combat uniform.
"Lars! What the hell?" she cried out of sheer joy.
"I'm home! Early deployment." Lars laughed and kissed her.
"When did you get in?" Reggie asked surprised. "I thought you were going to be in Japan for six months."
She felt like her heart was going to come out of her chest.
"When you were telling Lucas the story of how we got together." Lars laughed. "Didn't want to say anything because I wanted to surprise you."
At that moment, Lucas ran in because he heard his mother scream and wanted to check on her.
"Mommy! Who is trying to hurt you? I will whomp them!" Lucas said and then saw his father. "Daddy!"
Lars scooped up Lucas and said, "Hey! You think you can whomp me? I'll give you a whomping!"
He threw his son on his and Reggie's bed and started to tickle him as Lucas laughed.
"Great! I just got him to bed and look what you did." Reggie laughed.
"What I did? You screamed like someone got murdered." Lars laughed.
"Daddy, I missed you!" Lucas said hugging Lars.
"I missed you too. But you have to get to bed now, okay? I will take you to Mad Town after school if you get to bed." Lars said.
"Can we get a burger and chocolate shake after?" Lucas asked.
"Sure. Only if you get to bed." Lars said.
This made Lucas get up and run off to bed.
"I swear...he takes up after me." Lars joked. "He always wants to whomp someone."
"You would say that." Reggie snickered.
Lars took his wife into his arms and kissed her.
"Dios Mio, I miss having you in my arms." He said.
"I missed you too," Reggie said.
"Prove to me you did," Lars said seductively with a smirk.
Reggie pushed him in their bed and got on top of her husband. She kissed him, and he chortled, "Wow...you really missed me."
This made Reggie giggle. She looked down at Lars and said, "So...would you do it all over again? Fake an engagement only to bring us to where we are?"
Lars flipped her over so he was above her and said, "There are plenty of things I'd do with you all over again. And I have zero regrets about it."
"I would do it all over again too," Reggie replied with a smile as Lars lowered his face, so his lips met with her's.
To think that Lars and Reggie were once enemies as children. How the same guy that use to torment her and her friends with his idiot pals would one day turn himself around and that this would be the guy that Reggie would end up falling in love with and being married too. Yep. If she had to do it all over again, starting at the beginning when Lars was just a bully, she would. Sounds crazy, but she absolutely would.
