The phone rings, Jack gets up and takes the call.
Jack: Bauer.
Heller: Jack, its James. I just heard what happened at the bank, that you and Audrey handled the situation together. Is she okay?
Jack: She is a little exhausted but okay. She is not used to situations like this but I'm proud of her.
Heller: You two really need some time to calm down. After everything you've been trough. Can I talk to her?
Jack: Of course.
Jack hands the phone to Audrey.
Audrey: Dad?
Heller: Thank god you're all right. Are you okay? Is the baby okay?
Audrey: I've just beaten the raider unconscious, dad. The baby is okay. I just need to rest. I was at my gynecologist today…
Heller: And? What did he say?
Audrey: I'm in the third month and the baby is healthy and it's gonna be a girl!
Heller: Oh god, that's wonderful. I'm so exited to become a grandfather.
Audrey: The doctor just said that I and Jack are older than other parents and… you know… have to watch out.
Heller: That doesn't matter, you are a unique couple, I always knew that. You can handle everything!
Audrey: I know. So I have to go, I'm kind of tired.
Heller: I understand, take care, bye!
After this exiting day, they just needed a lot of sleep. On the next day they got debriefed at CTU and then the topic "bank raid" was over. Besides, Jack and Audrey had other things to do because the wedding was not far away. They had only a week until they got finally married. So there was a lot of stress and trouble but like Bill had promised, he handled most of it.
2 days after the bank raid
Audrey: Hey honey, I'm coming in late today!
Jack: Why? I thought we have to work out the Hell Gate scenario today.
Audrey: We have to postpone it. Kim and I go shopping for a wedding dress.
Jack: Really? Cool. I can't wait to see you in it.
Audrey: Well, you only have to wait a week. Bill told me that he has everything under control and that we don't have to worry. His villa is also already decorated and the invitations are out since last week.
Jack: You know, I'm glad that it's just a small wedding. It's more romantic and we have more time for ourselves.
Audrey: Me too. I think we have just 20 guests but that's really enough. I once had a super big wedding and it wasn't the best. I mean I don't, we don't, have a lot of friends. It's just Bill, Karen, Kim, Chase, my dad, Chloe, Morris, Richard, Diane, Derek and some other relatives. That's it!
Jack: Right. I think we will have a lot of fun.
Audrey: Yeah definitely. Well, I have to go and get Kim.
Jack: Okay, give her a kiss from me. And tell Chase he should be punctual, we have a lot to do.
She kisses Jack and leaves the house to get Kim.
In the city, they go in a pretty bride shop where Audrey finds the perfect dress.
Kim: Wow that dress is made for you. White, strapless, nice decorated with all these pearls and diamonds. And it's actually great that it's so long and you don't look pregnant in it.
Audrey watches herself in the mirror.
Audrey: I know. It's unbelievable. But it's very, very expensive.
Kim (laughing): Doesn't matter. My dad has enough money.
Audrey: You're right. He will pay for it. It's always an advantage to work for the government!
Happy that they found the perfect dress, they drive back home, where Audrey hides the dress because she knows that Jack likes to sneak around.
The next days past very quickly until finally the wedding day arrived, that was also Teri's birthday. So Jack and Kim visited her grave in the morning. Teri was now more than 7 years dead but Jack and Kim haven't spent a day without thinking of her.
Like the wedding tradition says, Audrey and Jack haven't spent the night together and wouldn't see each other until the second they get married. Audrey spent the night at her father's house and couldn't get much sleep at all. Although it was her second wedding she felt very nervous but this wedding would be different… she will become the wife of Jack Bauer. She would marry the father of her unborn child, the man of her life and dreams. She knew that nothing could ever change her love to him.
The ceremony was planned to take place at 4 pm. When Audrey woke up at the morning, she took a shower and prepared the things she wanted to take to Bill's villa. She was very happy that the sun was shining when she drove to Bill's villa. It would be a wonderful, warm summer day.
When Audrey left for the villa, Jack and Kim were already home after visiting Teri's grave.
Kim: You know dad, I miss mom. She would be very happy to see you marry again.
Jack: I miss her every single day. She was my first love and I was very happy with her.
Kim: That's true. But now, you should get ready. Get showered, changed into your suit. It's already 12 pm. Chase and I will pick you up at 2.30 pm so prepare everything because you don't want to be late on your own wedding.
20 minutes later after Audrey left her father's house, she arrived at Bill's holiday villa in the Hollywood mountains. The driveway was already decorated with red and white roses. This villa was amazing, it was really a shame that Bill only used the house on holidays or weekends. The view straight over the ocean was awesome. Audrey parked her car and picked up her stuff from the passenger seat. The wedding dress was save kept in a big bag. She went into the house where some guys just finished the flower decoration. The actual ceremony would take place in the big garden where already everything was settled.
Karen: Audrey hey, so what's your impression? What do you think of our work?
Audrey: I'm speechless. It's so beautiful!
Bill: I'm glad. So we've prepared one of the bedrooms on the second floor for you to get changed and ready and then later for your wedding night. And there is an other bedroom on the first floor which is prepared for Kim and Chase. You and Jack will have the second floor for yourselves.
Audrey: Thank you so much. You two are soo great. I'll go upstairs and change and do my hair and make up. Please tell Kim she should come upstairs to help me when she arrives with Jack.
