A/N: My apologies for such a long break. I'm trying to do better, promise. Hope you guys enjoy! Always love hearing what you guys think!


"What the hell is that?" Sonny chuckles as he opens front door to find Emma standing on the other side of it holding a massive binder.

"A wedding binder, duh Sonny."

"Uh-huh." Sonny mumbles. "It ain't that serious Emma."

"First off, it is good to see you too Sonny. Can I come in please?"

"Oh, right." Sonny steps aside so Emma can walk through the door.

After she is in the house she stops and looks at Sonny. "Second, it is that serious."

"You have put a lot of thought into this haven't ya?" Sonny asks as they walk into the kitchen. "Ya want anythin to drink?"

"A beer is good." Emma says as she sits.

"Ya got it." Sonny makes his way over to the fridge and grabs two beers and returns to the table.

"Thank you." Emma opens the binder. "Okay, so clearly this isn't going to have a huge guest list."

Sonny nods his head in agreement. "That would be correct. Um, it, uh would also make me, and for that fact Lisa better if it was in a location that isn't real visible to the public. Ya never know."

"I was thinking about that." Emma smiles as she takes a sip of beer. "I know this might sounds crazy and corny since, you know, the whole being in the Navy thing, but a yacht wedding."

Sonny narrows his eyes at Emma. "You're damn right that sounds crazy and not at all like somethin Lisa or I would want."

"Tell me how you really feel about it." Emma says with an eye roll. "Can you at least look at some pictures. It's a lot nicer than you think it is. Plus, it's completely private."

"Ya do understand that we ain't that kinda Navy, right?" Sonny says in protest.

"No Sonny, I had no idea you and Lisa weren't normal Navy. Just look at the damn pictures."

"Fine." Sonny huffs leaning forward. "Just so ya are aware I was just sittin across the table from Alana."

"Better or worse than when my Dad shines through." Emma quips.

"Oh shit." Sonny chuckles. "I'm gonna have to say I would rather be sittin across the table from Jace any day."

"Good to know." Emma laughs.

"Yes Ma'am." He starts to look through the pictures Emma had printed, and he begins to realize that she may be right. "I'll tella what Emma, this is a lot nicer than I was picturing it to be, but it still sounds kinda dumb."

"Listen Sonny, I get it. But this gives you guys total control over who sees it. And just think about this." She pushes a couple more pages of paper towards him. "Lisa loves the neutral color look with a bunch of flowers. So, picture the deck on the back of the boat decorated with a bunch of flowers and candles and lanterns. Oh, and having the ceremony at sunset."

"Uh." Sonny says as he thinks. "Ya think she would like that? Because I really just want her to like it."

"I do think she will like it. But what she will really love is that you planned all of this for her." Emma smiles.

"This is much better than my plan of doin this in the backyard." Sonny chuckles.

"You're welcome." Emma says with a huge grin. "That's why I'm here. There's no way I'm letting the woman that helped me through so much get married in her backyard."

"I know I'm givin ya a hard time, but I really am grateful for the help." Sonny says

Emma nods. "I know you are. You forget I grew up with my Dad. I'm totally used to this behavior."

"I'll have ya know, I don't appreciate that." Sonny chuckles. "Anyways ya really got everything figured out?" Sonny asks.

Emma nods. "I do. I just need a credit card to book everything."

"This is gonna cost me an arm and a leg, ain't it?" Sonny chuckles.

"You can't tell me Lisa isn't worth it. I mean you were going to give up the teams for her." Emma counters.

"Listen here Emma." Sonny laughs. "Just because I know this is gonna be expensive don't me I don't think Lisa is worth it. Ya know I love her more than life itself."

"I know you do. Is there anything you really want in the wedding?" Emma asks.

"I, uh, I don't think. I just want to have a good time and celebrate Lisa and me that's all that really matters." Sonny says.

Emma shakes her head. "You know I remember big bad Sonny Quinn from when he got drafted to Bravo and you are nothing like him."

Sonny lets out a chuckle. "Davis tells me that too and remember she knew me long before ya did. And knows all my deep dark secrets."

"Sonny and Davis, always meant to be." Emma giggles.

Sonny tilts his head to the side. "In a lot of ways yes. It was just a long path to get there."

Emma leans back in her chair. "And now I'm helping you plan a secret wedding. So, do you want an after party?"

"Um... hell yes we do." Sonny chuckles. "But we can exactly go to the Bulkhead with Lisa in a weddin dress and me in a tux, we already draw enough attention as is."

"Yeah, that would lead to a few questions from all the green team guys that I am sure would be hanging out there." Emma agrees. She thinks for a second. "Okay, two options. One, we move the party back here, but knowing this group no one will be able to drive. Which leads me two option two, we rent a suite in a hotel near the Habor and then you two can spend the night there too."

Sonny nods in understanding. "The hotel sounds like a good plan. We ain't gotta clean anythin or set stuff up."

"And she can get ready in it before the wedding." Emma adds.

"What do I need to do?" Sonny asks.

"Well groom's men and suits." Emma replies.

"Who...how, how do I choose? And How many to I choose?" Sonny stammers.

"Well." Emma starts. "Let's start with how many bridesmaids Lisa will want."

"Shit, um. You, of course. Then I guess I would have to say Mandy and probably Ronnie, if she can come." Sonny thinks.

Emma smiles hearing herself listed. Lisa really was the big sister she didn't have. "Okay, good, so three. Who are your three?"

"I would say Blondie would be my best man. Then I would want Jace. And shit, this harder than I thought it would be." Sonny pauses to think. "Maybe Ray."

"Good, that's a solid three." Emma comments as she writes. "Do you care who officiates?"

"Oh, um, I-I don't know if he would be willin to do it, but I know it would mean a lot to both of us if Blackburn would."

"Aw I love that." Emma smiles. "And you know he would do anything for Davis."

"That's damn true." Sonny chuckles.

"This is a really good start. Let's cement the dates and we can book everything and boom surprise wedding." Emma says with a smile.

"Emma, I mean this from the bottom of my heart. Thank ya. I know ya are gonna make this amazin and that means the world to me."
