Veronica was tucked under Johnny's arm, the two making up for the weeks of missed contact. Sue was on Reed's as they walked through the streets.

"So I guess this is it, huh? We all go our separate ways," Ben said.

"No," Reed answered, surprising everyone.

"Congratulations," she smiled as Reed hugged Johnny and then Veronica was swept off her feet by Ben as he hugged her.

"So, should we start planning your next wedding?" Veronica asked Reed and Sue as Johnny held her.

The couple just smiled as Reed said, "Well actually...."
