Bennet Back From Venice.

Angel walked down the crowded street holding rolled up bundles of papers, three different types of flowers, a book full of pictures of the variety of delicate China plates the wedding store had, and a check for $10,000. It had been three weeks since Gio had proposed during Chris' concert, but the wedding planning had been imeddiately kick started, due to the fact that Rai and her had agreed on having joined wedding.
"Crappers!" She said to herself when she stopped at her parked car at the side walk, how am I ever going to get this open? Angel thought for a second, then tried moving the massive pile of stuff she had to one side. Didn't work. She tried moving it to the other side. Again, didn't work. "Here, let me." An arm in a smooth looking leather jacket appeared in front of her clicking the keys she had successfully managed to pop into the lock, to the right then pulled the door open. Angel placed all her stuff into the passenger seat before she turned to thank the stranger. Before her stood a six foot tall L-O-V-E-G-O-D...Angel, stood there for awhile just taking in his abrupt appearance. Black messy hair and silver, yes silver, eyes. His smooth neck that lead down to his strong shoulders, very square and broad, his perfectly pink lips. Even his clothes seemed heavenly, a studded charcol black leater jacket, a v-neck baby blue tee, and ripped jeans. He dressed very well, rich Angel could tell, hell she could even smell it. His cologne was strong, but not overpowering, and sexyily musky.
"Ummm," Angel finnaly began to stamper out. "T-t-thank you." She pushed out her hand as if to shake his. What the hell am I doing? She thought to herself, who shake a mans hand after he opens your car door for you?...Even if he's a very sexy, attractive, and delicious looking man....He took her hand as if it were a normal thing to do, but instead of shaking it he turned it so the backside of her hand was upwards and bent down to it. He ever so slightly brushed his lips against it. Then before standing upright again looked at her and said, "Anything for a beautiful damsel in distress..." Then he was off, and around the corner before she could say anything else.

Time to flip over...Ahhhh! Rai was laying on a beach towel beside her 25 foot long pool, well soon to be Chris' and hers. "Honey-Bun, what are you doing?" Chris walked out shirtless, just finishing his daily exercise routine, he eyed her up and down. She was wearing her new two piece hot pink bikini, the one she bought before she found out that her body was going to turn into a disgusting, bulging, huge ball within the next nine months. The thought of that made her face go down into a frown. Chris noticed. "Baby?" He knelt down beside her, she could feel the heat radiating off his shirtless chest. Concern was visible on his lovely face. Rai just shook her head, "I was just thinking about how busy Angel probably is. With the wedding planning and all." The momentary worry in Chris' face turned into a brillant smile at the thought of them and their wedding. "Oh don't worry about it! Remember she offered to do all the planning, although I can't imagine why!" Chris scoffed at the sudden act of charity from Angel. Rai hadn't tolled him that she only offered so that Rai could deal with her own issues, like a baby, well actually she even told him about that...She remembered finding out and nearly fainting. She remembered being at Angel's and sitting on the floor almost going into hyperventalation mode. It took awhile to calm down and get over the initial shock of finding out she was pregnant. Angel herself almost went out cold when she told her, grabbing the tables edge when Rai whispered the news in Angels kitchen. Thank God Gio hadn't been there or else Chris would've immediately been phoned...Rai thought back to that, Wait...Klemey wasn't there either...Then Rai remembered that she had just gotten back from Venice so she had to call her to give her the news...In fact, Rai sat up, she had never called her back since then. Rai thought more, why hasn't this occurred to me earlier? Then her mind said, Duh! I'v been to busy thinking of the baby! Her hand fell to her stomach, warm from the sun tannng she had been doing. A baby...I can't....She pushed herself up and grabbed her towel. "Baby, I'm going to see if Angel can use some help." Chris just said bye, not questioning her leaving, he knew Angel would be running miles, planning a duo-wedding wasn't no easy task.

"RAI!!!" Angel almost jumped up, knocking over a pile of photos of table settings and flower arrangements. "Damn," She looked at them laying on the floor. Rai saw that she couldn't bend over to grab them herself 'cuz her lap was full of more photos and two heavy looking books. Rai laughed to herself as she walked through the little coffee shop to the table where Angel was sitting. "Thanks so much for meeting me here." Rai said as she picked up the fallen photos. "Rai!" Angel looked at her," With what your going through of course I would be here! I'd fly from Afgan-is-token if I had to!" Rai laughed again, she loved her silly friend who couldn't even pronounce a country's name right. Rai looked at the crowded table. "You know I can help you," She saw the stress of the planning in Angels face, "With the wedding plans. I'm not useless!" Rai threw her hands into the air, dramatically. "N-O! And that's final!" Angel refused. "A baby on the way, now that is more stressful than a wedding ANYDAY!" Rai just shook her head. "I just needed a couple of days to adjust to the news, I'm fine now! Angel, let me help!" She looked at her pleading. Angel's will power to say no faltered, this was, in reality to much for her to handle all on her own. "Fine." Angel grabbed her phone to check a text from Gio. He had written, Hey just c'in if u were still breathin' love u!. Awww, Angel's thought. Then suddenly an image of the Love God from earlier that morning flashed through her mind. Angel shook her head, why was he popping in her head? "So?" Angel had to talk about something, "Have you told Chris?" Rai's face immediately tolled her no. "Rai...You know your gonna have to!" Angel looked at her. "I know..." Rai looked at her hands. "Hey, that reminds me have you heard from Klemey?" Angel thought about it. "Actually, I don't think I have...To busy with all the planning...What has it been? Like three weeks since I heard from her...Not since we left Venice!" Angel replied. "How can I have gone that long without noticing?" rubbed her temples. "Hey, I didn't notice until today either that I haven't talked to her either..." Angel looked at her. "Should we be worried? I mean it is THREE weeks of no communicato?" Rai thought of Landon..."Maybe not, Landon, you know." Angel remembered the new love of Klemeys. "Yeah, they seemed really cute together!" Then their coffee came, distracting Rai from remembering the weirdness in Klemey's voice as she abruptly hung up on her the night she last talked to her....
