Emmas POV
"Does that happen a lot?" Clay asked. "You have no idea. I know Im not supposed to help her, but she's my wife. Its kinda hard not too." I said. "I get it. I once to tried to jump in the water after Clay crashed out." Hazel said. "But you werent as fast as the waves were." Clay smiled. Hazel rolled her eyes. After a minute, the girl that was saved re-did her time. And soon Clay left to join the others on stage. Finally Stephanie saw him. She smiled and gave him a short wave before returning to her microphone. "Gather round folks! We've seen some great surfing today from all twelve contestants, but only six can move on. And so, the winners are... contestants numbers one, three, four, seven, eight, and eleven! Give it up for our lucky winners!" Stephanie announced. Everyone cheered. Hazel was relieved that Clay made it. All the journalists flocked them again but I noticed that Courtney didnt. Instead, she met with Stephanie as she got off the stage. I slipped away from my friends and walked over to them. "Nice to see you, your majesty." I said. Courtney was stunned and turned around quickly to see who would remember who she was. She and Stephanie smiled seeing me. "Emma!" They hugged me. I giggled. "Hey girls." I greeted. "What are you doing here?" Courtney asked. "We just came to hang out, but then we ran into everyone!" I said. "We?" Stephanie asked. "Siren and Joey came with me, but we've run into almost all the bandits since then. The only ones we're missing are Oliver, Tony, and Carter." I said. "Really?! Wow! Well then we have to join you." Courtney said. "Yeah! Just a sec though. I have one more announcement." Stephanie got back on stage.

Courtney and I walked to the others. "Hey guys!" Courtney greeted. "Hey!" They all smiled at her. "Hey Clay. You miss my boobs again?" Courtney smirked. He laughed. "Nah. I got some right here." He pointed at Hazel. She slowly turned to him with deadliest glare Id ever seen, and he knew it too. He refused to look at her. Siren wasnt having that though. She slapped him. I laughed. The shock that flashed over Clays face was priceless. "I didnt miss that." He rubbed his cheek. "Oh I did. And it felt so good." Siren reveled in her power slap. We giggled. "Attention everyone! To thank you all for coming out, there is an open buffet just a little up the beach. Everyone help yourself! And thank you for coming!" Stephanie announced. She got down and joined us. "Hey guys!" She smiled. "Hey Stormy." Noah smiled. "We have got to catch up. Come on, I know a short cut to the food." Stephanie took off and we followed her.

We got there before anyone and got everything while it was hot. Six men were working the buffet while another one cooked under the canopy behind them. We went down the line and got what we wanted. When we got to the end, my jaw dropped at the server. "Oliver?" I asked. He looked up and smiled. "Emma Dune!" He exclaimed. He walked around the table and I hugged him. "Olly!" Stephanie and Courtney tackled him in a hug. "Ah! Girls!" He laughed. They let him go and he smiled at all of us. "Hey, how come I wasnt invited to the bandit meeting?" He asked. "This was the worlds biggest coincidence. We're just as shocked as you are." Joey said. "Here let me join you. Hey Louis! Babe!" Oliver yelled. The cook looked over and I smiled as I recognized him. Oliver ran over to him and they exchanged a few words before Oliver ran back to us. "Ok. Lets go." He said. "They dont need you here?" I asked. "No. This was just community service. Im not getting paid." He shrugged.

"So you do catering?" I asked. "Yeah! Louis cooks and I cater. Its our business." Oliver smiled. "Thats awesome." I said. "Woah!" Joker exclaimed. We all looked over at her. "Did you time travel or something? Is this one of your super hero bullshit adventures!?" Joker grabbed me and shook me. "No Joker!" I pushed her away. Siren took her girlfriends hand. "Its just a coincidence honey. This is real time." She said. "Oh... you all look the same... except that one." Joker pointed at Hazel. "Screw you." Hazel huffed. We all sat down together and started catching up. "So, are we all married now? Did we miss all of each others weddings?" Siren joked. We all looked at each other and then her. "Seems like it." Noah nodded. "So do you guys have kids?" Clay asked. My smiled faded remembering the conversation I had with Finn. "Yeah! We have a daughter. Her names Becca" Joker smiled. Siren showed them all a picture of Becca. "She's best friends with Emmas daughter." Siren added. "What's your daughter look like, Em?" Clay asked. "Uh-" I panicked as I grabbed my phone. I scrolled through my photos. Most of my gallery is me and Riley. All the photos I have of Finley are either her asleep or having a bad time. I frowned at my phone and the others noticed. "I um... I dont know if I..." I stuttered. Siren saved me just in time. "Here she is. To the left of Becca." Siren showed them. I looked at the photo and then looked away. Even in that photo, Finn looks annoyed. Granted, Becca can be a bit much sometimes though. "Her name is Finley." I said. "You dont seem very happy." Courtney raised an eyebrow. "I just... Finn is... I cant..." I stuttered again. "Emma... are you ok?" Noah asked. "Just tell them Emma." Joker said. I sighed. "Finley has narcolepsy. I have a lot of trouble worrying about her." I said. "Oh Im sorry Emma." Courtney said. I shrugged. "Lets just change the subject. Please." I said. "What are some other things? Oh! What about your favorite memory?" Siren saved me again. I breathed out relieved.

"Oh thats a good one. Id have to say our wedding day." Noah looked at Farrah. "You're so boring." She laughed. "Oh definitely starting my business." Oliver said. "Publishing my first article." Courtney smiled. "Getting my parents out of debt." Stephanie added. "Winning my first competition." Clay said. "Sending Farrahs dad to jail." Hazel smirked. Farrah laughed. "Throwing our first party." Joker said. "Definitely." Siren agreed. "And you Emma?" Clay asked. I thought back on what Ive done since leaving the island. "Oh wow... I havent done a whole lot." I realized. They all stared at me, waiting for an answer. "I guess..." I thought back again. I shook my head. "It must be my wedding or Finns birth. I dont really know." I shrugged. "I bet she can think of some." Joker looked behind me. I turned around. "Riley!" I got up and ran to her. I hugged her tightly and she squealed. "You're ok!" I cheered. "Of course I am! I saw your little reunion and figured I should stop by." She said. I took her hand and pulled her back to the group. "Hey guys! Long time no see." Riley smiled. "Hey Riley." They greeted. "So whats your favorite memory after the island Riley?" Clay asked. "Oh... Id have to say..." she looked at me and smiled. "Dying for you." She smirked. I blushed hard. "What?!" The bandits shrieked. "That was a long day." I groaned. "My dad wiped our memories and really the only reason we won is because Emma broke me from the curse. But then he killed me!" Riley said casually. "Yeah... thats one way to put it." I said. They all stared at me like we were crazy. I just shrugged.

Riley got a call and stood up to take it. "Yeah?" She asked. "So that was crazy." Noah looked at me. "This has been my life since I left. Im the side character in Rileys super hero story. Stress is all I know now." I shrugged. "Emma thats not ok." Oliver said. "She did what?!" Riley shrieked. I looked back at her. "Ive been telling her that forever! She's more than just her wife. But she wont listen to me." Siren said. "Ok! Ok Im coming." Riley hung up and turned to me. "Finn wont get up." She said. "What?!" I panicked. "We gotta go! Bye guys!" Riley ran off. "Ugh! Why dont they ever call me?! Ok, bye guys. It was so good seeing you all!" I stood up and ran after Riley.
