Minako awoke with her head pounding. Where was she? Images appeared: flashing lights, neon, endless crowds … Elvis?
Oh. Right. Vegas. Minako's debut launch party.
She bolted upright at the groan. Rei, unconscious in a chair. Even now, Minako absorbed every detail.
Rei had a wedding ring.
Everything rushed back. Drinks were free and plentiful. Then the usual, trying to out-dare the other.
I dare you to get married!
I dare you back!
But they hadn't found anyone?
Minako glanced at her identical ring.
As she woke Rei, Minako wondered if "free publicity" would bring some comfort.
It did not.
