Vicki blinked and she was gone.

Okay,okay, I'm just hallucinating, stress from the wedding, that's all, stress..she was trying to convince herself over and over.

"Hey you two," Vicki was now in mother mode, worried that something might be lurking. She didn't feel anything. If there was something paranormal around, Vicki's ability would pick up on it causing her skin to tingle. Nothing so far but she wasn't taking any chances. Just then, Gwen bounded down to the play are. Vicki was circling the castle, eyes peeled out around the yard, hands on her hips. Gwen was looking around too trying to figure out what Vicki was looking at.

"What is it Vicki?" Gwen asked, now on full alert, sniffing the air.

"I don't sense or smell anyone," Gwen would know as she was lycan, they can smell and sense anything close by.

"I thought I saw someone. It's nothing though. Hey, I need to talk to you over hear, away from little ears." Vicki was pulling Gwen to the side. She needed to fill her in about the wedding. Gwen's eyes twinkled when Vicki finished.

"So, I'll need you to make sure they get dressed and are there. There won't be a rehearsal, but I think you can come up with something creative to teach them how and without spilling the beans to their daddy for the next six days." Vicki smiled at Gwen, pleading almost for her to make sure this happened.

"This is the best news ever. Henry will be more than thrilled, he may even pass out!" Both women laughed at that mental picture.

Henry would be home the next day. Vicki had just a few minor details and then waiting, that was it, just waiting. That's another reason she had pushed it up, she didn't want to have to wait a full two more weeks.

"I've got to finish some stuff up," Vicki called the twins over," Hey, come here."

Vicki bent down to their level, "I've got to finish up some work okay?"

"Okay mommy, we had fun today did you?" Abbie asked her big blue eyes filled with pure love for her mother.

"The most fun ever!" with that, she hugged and kissed them both then left to sort out the rest of the wedding, the wedding of a lifetime, or at least Vicki hoped it would be.

Mike and Henry stayed one more night in the hotel at the convention. Henry always stayed an extra night to spend more time with the fans and it was too late for a plane. He didn't want Vicki driving to the airport late at night. Not that she minded, he did.

"So, this is your life, huh?" Mike asked Henry as they plopped on each of their respective beds in the room. Mike actually agreed to share a room with Henry. Well, he didn't agree, it was Kate's insistence really. She trusted Mike, that wasn't an issue. She was just still somewhat hormonal from the baby's birth, Mike didn't want to rock the cradle, so to speak so he agreed.

"Yes, pretty much." Henry was much more complicated than Mike had ever realized. He knew now that Henry was perfect for Vicki, why he hadn't let himself see it before now, he didn't know.

"All those women..they don't tempt you?" Mike was baiting Henry, Henry knew it.

"I could have any woman I want," Henry said very seriously, "but I have THE woman I want at home. I could live another thousand years and never ever want another woman. I hope you can handle me saying that Mike."

Mike laughed that deep manly laugh, slapped Henry on the back and for the first time since meeting Mike, Henry knew that things would change between them.

"Henry, if there is anyone that can handle Vicki Nelson for a thousand years, that's something I can definitely handle!" He shook his head as he got ready for bed.

Then a thought struck him.

"HEY! Don't you have to," he started making motions on his neck with two fingers, " snack?"

"No, I had my blood delivered earlier, I already had my bags for today. Plus, I eat now. I still have to have blood, but I like to eat."

"Oh, I forgot about the whole blood-in-a-bag thing." Mike had to say one more thing to Henry, to clear the air.

"Gee, you make it sound so tasty." Henry said with a smile.

"Look, I know that we didn't get off to a good start." Henry snorted at that remark.

"Hey, give me a chance here okay?", Mike sighed," but ,you have done what I, nor any human man could ever do."

"And what's that detective?" Henry asked furrowing his brow.

"You sir, have somewhat tamed the wild filly, Vicki ..." with that they both roared with laughter and went to bed for the night.

And I can't wait to get home to my filly...thought Henry as he tried to sleep without Vicki beside him.

Poor Henry..he didn't know that in order to make their honeymoon special too, Vicki was going to find ways to hold out for a whole week before they got married..the question was not how..but could SHE hold out for a whole week!!
