Chapter 5: A Dream Vacation

"And it seems the NHL's favorite playboy's game is at an end," A too enthusiastic reality TV host turned Hollywood reporter said on the TV. Derek had it going, Sherry was in the bathroom towel drying her hair. She closed her eyes. "After denying for months that they were anything but friends Adam Banks and Melissa Rubens were spotted enjoying a little fun in the sun. The pair is in Orlando for the week for the wedding of one of Banks's old teammates. Ruben's camp just issued this statement: Mel and Adam have recently decided to take their relationship to a new level, it was hard for them to make any kind of commitment while he was in season." Sherry sighed and walked out.

"I'm going to get a drink," She said, "Do you want a drink?"

"You've been drinking a lot lately," He looked at her, "You OK?"

"Fine," She said, "How's Leslie doing?"

"With what?" He looked at her.

"The part," She shrugged, "You two playing nice?"

"I'd rather you finally accept the promotion," He said and kissed her lightly, "You look lovely in blue."

"I get to sit down in the grotto all day," She shrugged, "It's a pretty sweet gig." He laughed. "Move in."

"What?" He said.

"Move in," She smiled, "I love you, I want us to have a life together, and I'm not moving into your place. It smells like boy and bong water."

"So you're say I have to start smelling differently and get rid of my bong?" He sighed sarcastically, "Jeez, Sherry." She laughed, "I don't know."

"Derek, we've been together for three years," She whispered, "What don't you know at this point?"

"I don't that I'm ready for that level of commitment," He said, "I love you Sher, but, I just don't know, I gotta sleep on it."

"Fine," She said, "I think I have rum, I know I have Pina Colada mix, I'm making Pina Coladas, do you want one?"

"Hey you guys," Connie said, walking into Mickey's Toontown fair, she pecked Guy lightly and then looked at Eric. "He's wearing different pants."

"We had a pooh pooh issue," Guy said. Eric looked up, Connie looked at him and sighed.

"Mommy," Eric said, his eyes wide and his smile wider, "We meet Mickey now!" She laughed and picked him up.

"Yeah baby," She nodded, "We're gonna meet Mickey now. Why didn't you let Daddy take you to the potty?"

"Eric hate the potty," He insisted. "Uncle Goberg makes stinkies too!" The guys looked away stifling their laughter.

"Thank you," She said. "None of you are allowed anywhere near my son again!" She pointed at them.

"So, I um, didn't realize how beautiful she was," Maya said to Fulton as Dean was waiting on line for food. "I mean, I'd gotten quick glances at like snapshots and stuff, but never, really seen her. Didn't want to."

"Yeah," Fulton nodded, "You're not bad though." She laughed and kicked him. He'd gotten to know Maya a little bit the first time she and Portman had been together, when they were sixteen and things were much simpler. "So how'd this happen?"

"It just sort of did," She shrugged, "It's not really serious, it's mostly sex."

"Mm," Fulton nodded. "So, you're OK with that?"

"Fulton, I'm 23," She shrugged, "I'm fine with being with someone simply because we really get along and have great sex." He went to say something else, "And yes, I am aware that he's using me this week. I am here for revenge, or something."

"And you're OK with this?" He looked at her.

"God yeah," She nodded. "This is a man who's still very much in love with his ex girlfriend. I take what I can get."

"You're way too good," He shook his head, "Because I feel like kicking his ass right now."

"For me or for her?" She raised her eyebrows.

"For both of you," He shrugged.

"OK," Portman walked over. "Hotdogs. Everything for Fult, because you obviously don't care how you smell. And mustard no relish for Maya."

"I like ketchup, with relish," She said confused, "You knew that." Fulton swallowed the bite of his hotdog.

"Right," Portman whispered, "I'm sorry, I didn't, have mine, no relish, but ketchup."

"Thanks," She said quietly taking it and frowning. She looked at Fulton who was looking away.

"That's how Julie eats her hotdogs," Fulton said once Maya was out of earshot.

"Shut up," Portman mumbled.

"They still don't like me," Layla sighed, Charlie looked at her, they were walking somewhat behind the rest of the group holding hands.

"Layla," He looked at her. "Don't be absurd, Connie's just stressed." Layla sighed, "Come here," He pulled her close, "Do you love me Layla?"

"You know I love you," She whispered. He kissed her gently. "Charlie,"

"Let's have fun this week OK?" He whispered. "Don't worry about anything." She nodded. "What do you want to go on?"

"Well," She said, "Magic Kingdom is pretty tame, you know how I like my thrill rides."

"We'll head over to Animal Kingdom later," He nodded, "Hit Expedition Everest. Hunt Yeti."

"Then Tower of Terror," She laughed, "I do know how you love going into the weird and unexplained!"

"Just call me Mulder," He winked, "Come on, Scully, let's solve the greatest mystery of all."

"What would that be?" She laughed.

"Will Justin use the potty?" He said in an eerie voice. She giggled and skipped ahead of him.

"What if we had a baby?" She asked.

"Well, you'd get bored of it in about ten seconds," Charlie said with a chuckle. She looked at him. "I'd like to have a baby with you someday Layla."

"Even though I never want to get married?" She said.

"Even though you never want to get married," He nodded. They kissed.

"Eww," Eric pointed from his stroller and covered his eyes. "Uncle Charlie, Aunt Layla, stop!"

"Seriously," Connie said, "Keep it PG in front of the baby. Those were some PG-13 level kisses."

"Sorry," Layla laughed. "We get carried away."

"Hey," Julie said, "I have the bride here."

"Congratulations sweetie!" Layla hugged her. Aimee laughed. "Where's Sherry?"

"She went home for a little while," Aimee shrugged. "She has a 5 to close shift and I thought maybe Eric would want to meet his princess," She leaned down.

"Aunt Aimee, I meet Mickey!" Eric said, "And Cap'n Hook!"

"He's not that interested in The Little Mermaid," Connie laughed, "We tried, honestly. What with his name and everything."

"Anyway, we're not here for that," Julie said, "Groom's men, tux fittings and you all have to be ready for the rehearsal dinner by seven."

"We all know," Averman rolled his eyes. She hit him, "Ow!"

"I will bump you from groomsman Lester, so help me God!" She pointed at him. "Oh and Aimee do you want to talk to Layla?"

"Oh, right!" Aimee said, "OK, so, Julie's going to be too busy running everything tomorrow, do you want to take her place as a bridesmaid."

"Really?" Layla squeaked. Julie nodded. "Oh my God, yay!"

"Great," Julie smiled, "So, Layla, Ken, Averman, and Dwayne, come with me. Everyone else, seven sharp, at the chapel, I mean it!"

"Jules, we know honey," Connie sighed. "Please don't let your head explode."

"Are you kidding?" Julie smiled, "This is like, the ultimate vacation!" She flitted away.

"She really is such a freak," Guy shook his head.
