Summer p.o.v

I wake up and find an arm wrapped around me. Before a scream erupts from my mouth I remember last nights event. I trace the arm to it's rightful owner and find Alex sleeping peacefully next to me. I remove her arm and tiptoe to the washroom. I dig around and finally come across a spare toothbrush. I look at my reflection and wince. God, I look like a mess. I find some wipes and quickly remove what's left of my make-up. After cleaning my face I quickly brush my teeth and after doing my morning routine I walk out of the washroom and find Alex waiting there for me with some spare clothes.

"How do you feel?" Alex asks me.

"Like I just got run over by a car." I croak out. Yup my throat is still sore.

"Here you go, change into this. You can take a shower while your at it and don't worry these are my sisters clothes. I'll grab you some advil." Alex says.

"Thanks Alex." I smile at her, grateful for her presence.

"No problem. Do you remember what happened yesterday?" Alex asks me. I stiffen at the mention of yesterday but quickly relax.

"I remember getting a ride in a truck after that it's all blank." I lie.

"Oh okay. Hurry up and change." Alex says walking away.

"Alex." I call after her.

"Hmm?" She hums turning around to face me.

"Belated birthday wishes and about your gift its.." I start but Alex interrupts.

"I already got it. Drunk Summer gave it to me and since you don't remember I'm going to say thank you again and you really shouldn't have." Alex says.

"I wanted to." I repeat what I said yesterday.

"Thank you, now hurry up and change." She instructs before walking away. I quickly rush into the washroom and take a quick shower. I wrap a towel around myself and walk inside the room. I quickly wear the spare clothes that Alex gave me which was a grey jeans and white tank top with cream over top. I quickly blow dry my hair and tie it up into a ponytail. I grab my discarded clothes about to throw them into the laundry when Alex walks in.

"Here you go." Alex says pushing an advil and a glass of water towards me. I take it and soon my headache becomes a dull ache which is easy to ignore. "I'll take that and put it in wash. You should probably head outside, breakfast has been served and everyone's awake. We'll be heading back home in the afternoon." Alex says once again rushing out the door. Time to face the music.

I walk outside and sure enough the dining table was set with breakfast of all kinds ranging from different kinds of pancakes to scrambled eggs and bacon to toast and french toast. And our group was seated across the table.

"Good morning." I greet them all and take a seat beside Alister.

"Morning Summer. How did you sleep?" Alister questions and everyone turns around to face me.

"I slept just fine." I answer and pick out some french toast for me.

"Are you feeling alright? Alex told us you were drunk." Alison questions.

"I'm fine other than the throbbing headache and my feet but Alex gave me some advil so I feel okay." I tell her honestly.

"That's good and might I say coming to a party drunk is pretty cool." Stacy compliments.

"Thanks." I mumble. I can feel eyes on me and I look up to meet brown-green eyes of Chase Carter. "Um, did I do something silly yesterday?" I ask Chase.

"You mean you don't remember?" Chase asks me.

"Um yeah." I lie.

"You didn't do anything so don't worry." Alex says taking a seat next to Drew.

"Oh thank god, I was worried. I don't usually get drunk and I don't know how I got drunk. What did I drink?" I say but direct the last question towards Chase since I really am curious about it I never got to find out just what exactly did I drink.

"It was a very strong wine meant for riders." Chase answers.

"Oh." I say and get back to picking at my french toast.

"Not hungry?" Matt asks.

"Not really, I feel like I'll throw up if I eat anything." I tell him.

"I can understand." Matt sympathises.

"Summer, guess what?" Alison asks, trying to get my attention.

"What?" I ask her.

"Amaira is getting married." Alister answers.

"What?!" I ask shocked. Amaira Kingsley is Alison and Alister's elder sister. I'm really close to her too, we got along great from the beginning. She was like my sister too. The thing about Amaira you should know is that she is a complete tom-boy and would not hesitate to punch your face in if you get on her bad side.

"Yup." Alison nods.

"When?" I ask the twins.

"Next week." Alister answers.

"And how come I'm finding this out now?" I ask them.

"Well since we decided to transfer here Amaira wanted us to invite you personally rather than through web chat." Alison answers.

"And why tell me this only now?" I glare at the two and the both just give me a sheepish look.

"We forgot." Alister replies.

"Sorry." Alison apologises.

"It's okay. So who's the guy?" I ask them.

"Brent Knight. He's pretty good and can deal with Amaira just perfectly." Alisters answers.

"Oh." I say nodding.

"All of us are leaving on Thursday." Alison says.

"All of us?" I ask her.

"Yup, we invited the others too and they all agreed." Alister says.

"Oh okay." I nod.

"Will you be joining us?" Alison asks.

"I don't know, should ask Jake." I tell them.

"Jakes joining us too. So you will be tagging along as well." Alister says.

"Okay then. How long are we staying in New York?" I ask them.
"About a week. Amaira's wedding is on Wednesday." Alisons answers.

"Will you guys be staying too?" I ask the others.

"Yes." Matt answers.

"Where will you be staying?" I ask them.

"A motel." Stacy answers.

"Oh." I nod. The conversation starts revolving around the marriage and I notice Chase get up and walk away. I escuse myself and follow him. I find him sitting on the lawn chair outside. I walk towards him and occupy the other chair.

"Hey can we talk?" I ask him.

"Sure. What's up?" He asks me.

"Sky?" I answer. I seriously hate when people say that.

"Funny. What's the matter?" He asks carefully selecting his words.

"I just wanted to apologise if I caused you any sort of trouble yesterday. I was drunk and well yeah I was drunk." I say and he just chuckles.

"Don't worry you didn't cause much trouble and beside I'm half to blame too. I should have checked the car before bringing it out." He says, sincerely.

"Wait did the hell just freeze over? Chase Carter is admitting his mistake." I tease.

"Don't get used to it." Chase laughs.

"I'll be sure not to." I laugh along with him. "So um I didn't say or do anything weird right?" I ask him. What? I'm curious.

"Well other than admitting..." He starts and I gulp, Is he going to say it? "That you think I'm sexy, you didn't say anything weird. Though that not weird its just a fact." He laughs.

"Can you head get any bigger? And I'm sure I didn't say that." I laugh along with him.

"And why not? You were drunk remember?" He points out.

"Yes I was drunk not delusional."I say matter-of-factly.

"I'm hurt." Chase whines clasping his hand over his chest and I just punch him lightly on his hand. And we just share a good laugh.

"So we are okay?" I ask him, as we get out of the chair to head back inside.

"We were always okay." Chase smiles.

"Good." I return his smile and both of us walk inside the house.

Thursday

The days went by pretty swiftly and soon it was Thursday and all of us were heading to New York for Amairas wedding. Mom and dad were ecstatic that I was coming home and so was I. I missed them a lot. We were taking Jake's Hummer so that all of us can fit in. I drag my luggage down to the parking lot. My brother helps me load it inside and soon our friends were all here and after securing their luggage we were off on our way to New York. The girl in the very back, the boys in the front and Jacob on the drivers seat and Alicia in the passenger seat. We were all goofing off and having fun.

Halfway into the drive all of started to get hungry and since we were off the road, taking a short cut of some sort, there were no restaurant or any sort of food chain around. We were all cranky and bitter due to hunger. We were driving in between what looks like fields and more fields.

"Who's idea was it to take the short cut?" I ask, already planning the way I would murder the said person.

"I didn't know there would be no restaurant or any food chain on this road." Jacob defends.

"How would you like to die? Drowned in a river? Or thrown off a cliff?" I glare at him making him gulp.

"Would you please stop planning my murder?" Jacob begs.

"Too late I already have." I smirk at him.

"Summer calm down." Alicia says trying to get me to calm down. Too bad I'm too hungry for calm.
"Jacob your hot as hell but I'm with Summer on this one. How can you expect us to stay hungry?" Alex whines.

"I didn't know. If I did I wouldn't have taken this shortcut. Sorry." Jacob defends.

"Too late for sorry's dont you think?" I snap at him.

"Jacob stop the car." Chase commands.

"What?" Jacob asks him.

"Stop the car. I think I found a means to satisfy our hunger." Chase smirks.

-----------

"You can't be serious?" Alex asks looking at the board.

"Very." Chase smirks at her.

"We can't just barge in there." Drew says.

"That's why I have a plan. Just follow my lead." Chase says calmly.

"Isnt it a crime?" Alicia asks.

"Only if you get caught." Chase points out.

"But its morally incorrect." Stacy interjects.

"Since when have you ever cared about morals? And besides I'm too hungry to worry about morals." Chase says, rolling his eyes at her.

"What if we get caught?" Alison asks worried.

"Then we just have to make sure that we don't get caught." Chase shrugs.

"It doesn't seem like a bad idea." Matt says.

"Are you crazy? This is absolutely insane." Alister yells.

"But if it can feed us, why not? Its better than starving to death." Jake defends.

"What do you say?" Chase ask me. I blink at him and stare at the big board.

'ANTONIO weds GLORIA'

Wishlist no 17: Gatecrash A Wedding

"Let's do it."

After changing into our best all of us head inside. Its sort of funny how all of us decided to go white. Boys were wearing white tailored suits and girls white dresses. We look like we just came out of a group campaign of some sorts. We enter the wedding reception like we own it. Chase gave us a few pointers before hand.

1: Act like you belong
2: If someone tries to talk to you act like you know them.
3: Always say yes to their questions
4: Don't disclose about any matter let them assume whatever they want
5: If someone finds you suspicious.. RUN

The whole field was covered with red roses, which reminds me who celebrates their wedding banquet in a field? And the most weird thing all of the guest were wearing black. Just plain black. And us with our white clothes just stand out a lot among them like a pimple. I know bad example but couldn't think of anything else. For a minute I actually thought of fleeing, what with all the stares, but the thought just escapes from my mind as the delicious aroma of the food hits my nostrils. Im pretty sure it's the same with others as well. A tall man in all black walks towards us with a sunglass on. Men In Black much?

"We have been waiting for you, right this way." The man says gesturing for us to follow. And we do just that, follow him wherever it might be. No need to add on to unwanted attention. He leads us to a big table and we sit down. And soon enough several waiters come up with food and place it in front of us. My mouth starts watering at the beautiful sight in front of me. After the waiters and the man leave all of us dig in.

"I would like to thank all of you for gathering here today, for witnessing my marriage to this beautiful women here." The groom calls out attention and we too pay attention while stuffing our face with the food, he was a very creepy looking guy in his late 20's or early 30's. "Grace I'm so happy to have found you on that faithful day where the two of us shot all 6 bullets into the head of the police chief." I start chocking on my food. Creepy groom say what?

"Me too my dear Antonio." The bride smiles at her husband she was a sickly pale women with to much bones and was covered in black from head to toe. "I knew when we killed so many police officers together, we were just meant to be." My jaw drops to the floor. Even more creepy bride say what now?

"The two of us look forward to our life's together and to the crimes that we are gonna commit even more so." The groom raises the toast.

"Hear hear." Everyone says raising their glasses and soon the air was filled with the sound of gun shots.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

All of us look at one another our eyes the size of saucers. The man from earlier comes back.

"You are on in 5." The man tells us.

"Es-escuse me, can I ask what is going on? An-and who the bride and groom a-are?" Alex manages to ask stuttering now and then.

"Didn't you know? You are now in the wedding of the two most powerful Italian mafia." The man answers.

"Mafia?!" All of us ask at the same time.

"Yes. Now hurry up the guests are waiting." The man says.

"For what?" I ask him.

"For your song ofcourse. You are the famous singers ANGEL right?" The man asks, looking at us suspiciously.

"Ofcourse we are. We are just startled by the gun shots." Chase lies.

"Okay then. I'll be back in 3 minutes." The man says before walking away.

"What are we going to do?" All of us ask at the same time.

"Mafia? How the hell did we get involved with mafia's!" Alex whines.

"I told you this was a bad idea." Alister complains.

"Now it's too late. We have already lied our way inside. If we get caught they'll kill us." Stacy says, calmly.

"Let's just sing and get away from here quickly and swiftly." Chase says.

"In case you forgot we don't sing." Matt tells him.

"Summer does." Chase says.

"What? I can't sing! I'm not that good and besides I'm scared." I cry.

"All of us are scared but this is the only way we'll get out of this unscathed. You are an awesome singer Summer and I know you can do it." Chase says, all serious and smiling warmly yet reassuringly at me.

"Okay." I give in knowing he's right.

"Okay so Summer will sing, Alex you play the keyboard, Drew will play the drums, Alison, Alicia and Stacy your the back up singers, Matt and I can play the guitar so can Jacob. So its decided let's remain calm and get on with this and soon we'll be out of here." Chase says and all of us nod at him. The man returns soon after.

"You're on." He says and we follow him to the stage. All of us go to our stands. I take a deep breath before smiling at the audience.

"Hello everyone, a fine day we have today and let's all clap our hands for our bride and groom who have just started with their new lives." I speak into the microphone and everyone claps their hands. "Okay let's get this going with a song that will rock you out of your seats." I say and nod my head at my friends giving them the cue to start. I sing We Will Rock You by QUEEN.

Buddy you're a boy make a big noise
Playin' in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo' face
You big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
Singin'

We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

Buddy you're a young man hard man
Shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day
You got blood on yo' face
You big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place

We will we will rock you
(Sing it!)
We will we will rock you

Buddy you're an old man poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you some peace some day
You got mud on your face
Big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place

We will we will rock you
(Sing it!)
We will we will rock you

(Everybody)

We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

(Alright)

I finish and the audience breaks out into an uproar and cheers clearly enjoying themselves.

"Let's take it slow with the first dance of the bride and groom." I say as the couple make their way to the centre of the field. I take the list from the Men In Black guy from before of the songs the bride decided for the wedding. I start singing the song she chose for the first dance, A Thousand Years by Christina Perri.

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

I finish and the bride and groom kiss before going back to their seats as the audience claps.

"All the father's hold on to your daughters as we begin the father daughter dance." I say and start singing Gracie by Ben Folds.

You can't fool me, I saw you when you came out
You got your momma's taste but you got my mouth
And you will always have a part of me
Nobody else is ever going to see
Gracie girl

With your cards to your chest walking on your toes
What you got in the box only Gracie knows
And I would never try to make you be
Anything you didn't really want to be
Gracie girl

Life flies by in seconds
You're not a baby Gracie, you're my friend
You'll be a lady soon but until then
You gotta do what I say

You nodded off in my arms watching TV
I won't move you an inch even thought my arm's asleep

One day you're gonna want to go
I hope we taught you everything you need to know
Gracie girl

And there will always be a part of me
Nobody else is ever gonna see but you and me
My little girl
My Gracie girl

I finish and the bride was crying softly on her father's chest.

"Let's wipe away the tears and bring about the smiles, let's end this with a smile." I say and start singing Don't Stop Believin by Journey.

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people

After I finish the last song all of us get down from the stage as the crowd starts applauding.

"You were great. I knew you could do it." Chase smiles at me.

"That's my sister I'm proud of you." Jake says pulling me into a hug which soon turns into a group hug.

"Escuse me." The man in black calls out.

"Yes?" I ask him.

"Lady Grace would like to talk to you before you leave." He says.

"Me? She wants to meet me?" I ask him.

"Yes, if you would follow me." He says gesturing me to follow him.

"I'll be right back." I tell my friends.

"Are you sure?" Jake asks unsure of letting me go.

"Yes." I tell him.

"Summer.." Chase starts but I interrupt him.

"I'll be fine." I smile at him before following the man. We soon come to an isolated area of the field and the man leaves me there. I see the bride just a few feet away, her back facing me. I clear my throat trying to get her attention. It works as she swirls around to face me.

"Um you wanted to see me?" I ask her, suddenly all nervous.

"Yes I just wanted to tell you that I know your not ANGEL." She states smirking at me, as I stand there stunned. I open my mouth to explain but she stops me with a look. "I'm not mad, so you can relax. About how I came to know? I have been a fan of ANGEL for a long time so I know what they look like. Yes, I'll admit I was mad at first then after I heard your voice, my anger just evaporated. You have a beautiful voice and I'm letting you and your friends walk out of here alive is because of two reasons. First, I know your not cops since I know a cop when I see one and I can tell your just kids who just stumbled in here. Second, since you managed to keep my guests happy, fulfilling your purpose. Your free to go back to your friends now." She finishes.

"Oh okay, thank you." I smile at her, grateful.

"What's your name?" She asks me and seeing my scared expression she quickly explains. "I just want to know the name of the singer who sang at my wedding, nothing else." She explains.

"Summer." I tell her.

"Nice name. And with the voice like yours you will definitely do good." She smiles.

"Thank you." I return her smile.

"Off you go now." She says and I quickly take my leave and meet with my friends.

"What did she want?" Alicia asks as soon as I reach them.

"She wanted to just compliment my singing." I say, technically I'm not lieing.

"Let's go." Jake says and we all head back to the car. After some more driving we finally reach New York. Jake drives towards our house and as soon as we parked the car my parents were waiting for us on the porch.

"Oh my baby." My mom quickly pulls me in for a hug.

"Hi mom, I missed you." I tell her returning her hug.

"I missed you more." She says letting me go and I go to hug Jacobs dad, my stepdad but still my dad.

"Hey dad I missed you." I smile up at him.

"And I you." He says pecking my cheeks. My mom pulls Jake in for a hug too and when she finally let's him go he stumbles towards dad and hugs him, as mom pulls Alicia in for a hug and after Alicia finishes hugging my dad my mom turns towards my friends.

"Hello." My mom greets them.

"Mom those are my friends they'll be staying here for a week. That okay, right?" I ask her, I didn't want them to waste money in a motel.

"Ofcourse, do come in. We'll introduce ourselves inside." My mom smiles warmly at my friends inviting them inside our house. Dad pulls me to him.

"How was the drive?" He asks.

"A memorable one." I smile at him as we head inside.

A real memorable one.
