Moira's POV

"Moira what the fuck? I thought that your trust issues are gone." They have never left my dear. How do you think I solve my cases in the police?
"This time it's different."
"What's so different?"
"Not only I can't trust him. I can't trust myself either."
"Oh Moira, come here." At least I have her.
"I don't know what to do."
"This time you made things complicated even for me. I don't know what to say. I can't give you advice. But I can tell you only one thing. When your thoughts are clouding your decisions, it's the time for your heart to take the lead." What? No, my heart is gonna make it even worse. But, on the other hand, she's kind of right.
"Oh, Stacey. Thank you. I can't imagine my world without you."
"Hey, what about Vince? Is he coming to the wedding?"
"Of course he is. Also I have a question."
"Go ahead."

"Since I'm the matron of honor, who's gonna be the best man?"
"Oh, well... I don't know how to say that to you, but the best man... Tommy decided to be... His friend." Okay? Why that voice?
"Why that worried? I don't have any problems with Tommy's friends. He can pick anyone."
"Are you sure?" NO. NO, NO, NO. IS NIKKI SIXX THE BEST MAN? NO FUCKING WAY.
"Wait a minute? AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?"
"I'm so sorry. I tried to convince Tommy that Vince is suitable for a best man, but he wanted his long time friend Nikki to be the best man." Wait, wait, wait. Whaaaat?
"Wait, did you just say long time friend?"
"Yes, they knew each other from a long time." Now THIS... THIS IS SUSPICIOUS. I swear to God when I'm suspicious of something I know it so damn well. It's like I have suspecting sensors that alarm me every time I have suspicions. And this time my sensors are really really loud. Long time friends? Hmm... No Moira, it's not the time. Please don't do that on your sister's wedding.

"Where do you know from?"
"Tommy told me when we were choosing witnesses." This is suspicious. I can taste it with my tongue. But I have to stop that feeling. I'm gonna ruin my sister's wedding if I'm always suspicious.
"I hope I don't freak out."
"Don't worry. You got this. Right? Just stop being detective Adams for a day. I hope you can do that." The last time I was Moira I got drunk with Nikki. Moira is a loser. Detective Adams on the other hand has suspicions. I don't know which one to pick? Someone help me.
"I'll try to give my best not to ruin everything. I always do."
"No, don't talk like that. You won't ruin anything." I hope so.

Okay, I think I should sit down and calm down. Let's start again. Nikki Sixx is not for me. He's a criminal. I'm detective. Just because he stopped making crimes doesn't mean he won't do them anymore. I feel that something's gonna happen. But what? That's the point where I have to think more. Hmm, she said that Tommy and Nikki were long time friends. Remember when Tommy was his lawyer. They acted like they didn't know each other that long. Hmm, I won't ask Tommy still. Nikki neither. Well, it's like I can talk with him at this point. Oh God, he's the best man. And I'm the matron of honor. This is messed up. The witnesses are a criminal and a detective. I hope that won't influence their marriage in some bad kind of way. I hope they'll be happy. But what if Tommy tries to hurt her? What if he tries to... NO, STOP. HE'S NOT NIKKI SIXX OR JOHN CORABI. He loves her. But the fact that he and Nikki knew each other from a long time disturbs me. Why they had to play it out in the court. Why?

Okay, now I'm around the fountain. Drinking orange juice. Why not? I love orange juice. But what if Vince and Nikki meet and OH MY GOD. THEY'RE GONNA START UP A FIGHT. Noooo, stop. Why you're thinking about the worst that could happen? It's your sister's marriage. What bad can happen? Nothing. Nothing will happen. There's gonna be marriage only. Oh, I forgot the party. OH NO, THE PARTY'S GONNA TURN INTO A FIGHTING CLUB. Fuuuuck, stop it Moira. Just stop it. Remember when you were a teenager and used to visit psychologists. They had prescribed some pills. Maybe it's time to start taking them again. Oh, I see Vince.
"Hey, Vince."
"Moira, oh God, you're gorgeous."
"You too, Vince. I'm sorry that you're not the best man."
"Nah, it's okay. But I'm curious who's gonna be the best man?" Oh no. Should I tell him? No, I shouldn't.
"Even I don't know. Stacey hasn't told me yet." I wish she hasn't.
"Oh, it's a surprise?"
"Actually Tommy picked him up."
"A big surprise then?"
"Yeah, I know only that they're friends." And when he sees Nikki he's gonna suspect everything as well. At least I won't be alone in this.
"I hope he's some lawyer as well. I don't want to know that Tommy has a buddy with criminal record." Ah Vince, if Nikki's not up for a fight, then you're gonna be.
