Everywhere you looked there were suits and expensive jewels. The celebration had commenced and everyone decided to come. Cooper stood still next to Jamie in a sharp black suit with his tight tie. He glared and smiled fakely to everyone who came up to them. The first person to come to Jamie and say something other than hi was Clifford Valdrogen. You remember him, the one with addictions that doesn't do anything.

" Nice to see you doing well, Jamie."

He said with a big smile. Cooper and Jamie were speechless for his appearance. It was like it was a whole other person in front of them. A more mature and clean Clifford. He had a green-style suit jacket with a shirt and slacks. His dark brown shoes even shined. The haircut he had was clean like his scruff beared.

" You cleaned yourself well, Cliff."

Cooper said shaking his hand.

He walked away and Jamie looked up at Cooper. " What happened to him?"

Adam walked up confused and asked who was that. He was joking of course.

The three of them laughed until someone interrupted behind Adam.

" Well, hello survivor."

Cooper began to get tensed. " Shawn, be careful with the alcohol."

He laughed and raised his glass to him.

Shawn is the alcoholic and lazy brother of Archer. I think you've already met him. Anyways, behind him came up the handsome Stephen Valdrogen. The one investigating Jamie's intent murder. Who also was investigating Jackson's murder.

" Hi, Jamie whenever you have a chance...I would love to have a word with you." He said quietly looking down at his shoes. " Yes, let me know, and thank you for...everything." Jamie smiled weakly seeing how broken Stephen looked.

Then came up Brent and Joshua who waved at the two. " You won't speak with him alone. Okay, you have to promise me that." Cooper whispered in Jamie's ear.

" Hey, great party. Jamie, how are you bud." Julian Valdrogen, the cousin lawyer of Archer. " Shirt and jeans, the only thing missing is your sandals." Cooper laughed hugging him. " Sorry, I don't make billions like others." He excused himself.

" Sorry to intrude. Heard there was a party and it was for Jamie."

"Detective William, always a pleasure. My guess is you are still on the clock or do not have enough money to buy another suit." Cooper said shaking his hand. William smiled, "As the guy in front of me said, we all don't make billions Mr.Valdrogen."

Cooper walked away to grab a drink and Jamie rolled a little bit closer to the people. When Riley popped in from the group of people. " Hello, handsome on fours." Jamie smiled and carefully jumped up to hug him. " Thank you for coming, Riley." They toast and laugh until the door opens.

And two people no one expected them to show. Walked in making noise like always. " Harry and Hayes, who the hell invited you guys," Cooper asked angrily. Everyone was staring at them and Jamie had noticed. " It's okay, let them in. Probably Adam invited them. Where is Adam anyways?"

" Beats me, ask my son over here."

Same old Harry Amell. He walked away dancing to no music for a drink.

" Adam is a little late. Don't worry he is coming." Hayes said walking to Cooper's face with his hand out to him. " He better be here or you two are out of here." Jamie took a grab of Cooper's arm for him to stop.

Soon it got darker and everyone was having the dinner special. Which was a big meal of expensive chicken with rice. Cooper sat Jamie in the middle of the huge table. Everyone raised their glass to him.

" Are we late to the party." someone shouted from the door.

Cooper got up from the table immediately.

" What are you guys doing here?"

In front of him stood Jake, Randall, Stuart, and Dixon Bronson.

" Adam invited us. Sorry, should we leave?"

Randall intrudes from behind Jake.

" No, take a seat and Dixon don't start shit. I'm not playing with you."

Dixon winked at him and walked over to the table.

Jamie stared at Cooper who was removing his jacket and fixing his cuffs. When he walked over next to Jamie. " Babe, your pants ripped. I guess you need to stop squatting at the gym." Cooper flushed and excused himself from the table. He took Jamie with him covering his behind with Jamie's head. You see he took Jamie facing the people with his hands behind him on the wheelchair.

As they got to the room, Jamie kept laughing.

" Okay, that's enough of you laughing at me. It's embarrassing."

Cooper opened his closet doors.

" It happens to everyone Cooper. And I never noticed your ass from this angle. You have a big butt." Jamie said still looking at his behind.

" Behave, it's not on the menu."

Cooper turned around and winked.

Jamie rolled over to him and took a bite on one of his cheeks.

Ow!

Cooper yields laughing.

" You're lucky I can't fuck you right now."

Jamie laughed and waited for him to change his pants.

"You going commando?"

Cooper smiled dirty and walked to open the door. He then went behind Jamie and rolled him back to the table.

" There you are."

Darrin Ritin said with his sons beside him.

He is a close friend and owner of the best vacation homes.

" Hi, I'm Theo, this is my older brother Ted and my little brother Eddie."

Jamie said hi to everyone and saw how handsome all of them were.

" Full house and Adam isn't here yet." Cooper snarled.

Soon it got more packed by the minute.

" Hello, cousin and man of steel."

Felix is Archer's younger cousin who owns his own electricity company.

" This our my sons, Clayton and Michael." Proudly he got behind his sons and put his arms around them.

" Yeah, I remember Clayton."

Cooper looked confused for a second.

" We met in the building once."

He then remembered and agreed. When they walked away, Cooper whispered into Jamie's ear:

" Stop drooling." Jamie laughed and pinched him in the stomach.

" How many more people did Adam invite?"
