I chuckled at her retreating back and went to make sure all was going smoothly.

God it had only been a few months since they had all left England but I had missed them more than I realised. I spoke to Andy on the phone most days but it wasn’t the same and I could not wait to see them. I would be here for ten days so would get a chance to chill out and spend some time with everyone once Andy and Rachel left on their honeymoon.

I stepped out into arrivals and felt myself grin like a fool as Bette and Connor came into view. I hugged them for all I was worth and marvelled again at how much I had come to think of them all as family.

“Much as I love you guys I thought Andy was picking me up. Is everything Okay?”

I watched as Bette and Connor exchanged amused glances.

“Well she isn’t coping well with the separation and has holed up in the bedroom at mine and refuses to help until we let her see Rachel. We figured at least we know where she is so after she nearly attacked me with a softball bat this morning we were going to let you talk her out. After all you weren’t even here so she has no idea it was your plan we used to separate them. In fact I am sure she thinks it was all Alice’s idea.”

“Well so long as she never finds out I was involved I am willing to consider Alice collateral damage, I am sure I can talk her round.”

With that we made our way out to the car to head back to the chaos of the last minute pre wedding preparations going on back at Bette and Tina’s.

Meanwhile at Bette and Tina’s:-

————————–Andy———————

I knew I was being immature but I really was mad and the hangover from hell was not helping to either improve my mood or relax my nerves. I lay on the bed in Bette and Tina’s room that I had occupied with one of my main kidnappers the previous night staring out towards the pool where the setting for Monday’s wedding was beginning to take place. As I began to doze of I heard a commotion coming from the bathroom.
