New York Harbor, New York

You pulled your shawl over your arms as you and Ben walked onto the port. Willa came up to you and wrapped her arms around you.

"I'm so glad you could make it!"

"I wouldn't miss it."

"Is that a ring I see?"

"Yeah. It happened yesterday."

"Congratulations!"

After she hugged Ben, he handed her a large red box.

"It's a china set."

"Oh, that's so sweet. I'll go put it on the gift table. Feel free to board the boat."

The two of you stepped onto the boat and immediately saw two friendly faces.

"Hey, Kendall."

"Hey."

He smiled and hugged you tightly.

"Ben."

"Kendall. Hey."

"How've you been?" He asked you.

"Good. Busy."

"Us too."

"So I've heard."

"Connor." Ben smiled.

"Hey, guys."

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."

"Everything okay?"

"It's just this cake."

"What's wrong with it?"

"What's not wrong with it is the real question."

"Well, congrats anyway."

He smiled and hugged you.

"Thanks. Thanks for coming, kid."

"You do realize that I'm in my thirties, right?"

"You'll always be that little kid that used to have sleepovers with Shiv."

"Nice to know that's how I'll be remembered."

"Would you mind checking on Shiv?" He asked. "She went to the bathroom about ten minutes ago and I still haven't seen her."

"Yeah. Where?"

"Upstairs to the left."

"I'll be back."

You walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.

"Occupied!"

"Are you sh*tting in there?"

The door quickly opened and the redhead smiled at you.

"Moira."

"Hey, Shivvy."

You hugged her and smiled.

"How are you?"

"I'm good. Engaged."

"What?" She looked down to your hand and gasped. "We've been best friends since diapers and you didn't tell me?"

"It just happened like eighteen hours ago, Shivvy."

"Congratulations."

"Thank you." You smiled.

She held her stomach and you heard her wince.

"You okay?"

"Yeah. Just some stomach pain."

"You need to sit down?"
