Adam's POV
I casually stir my coffee.
America's sweetheart.
Breathing deeply I check myself in the mirror one last time.
My suit is perfectly in order, the cliche bow tie folded to perfection by my boyfriend.
"Adam?" Ryan asks kissing me gently.
"Yeah?" I ask pecking him on the cheek.
"What time are we supposed to be there?"
"5:45," I reply.
Cliche Mirai having a sunset wedding.
The sunset at the olympics was the last time everyone was together.
"We'll be back together eventually," Alex says his arms wrapping around the rest of the team.
"I hope," I state.
"We will," Mirai replies as the team stands staring at the sun setting behind the mountains.
I turn to Nathan and Kierra their hands tightly intertwined, Kierra's head leaning on Nathan's shoulder.
"For their wedding," Mirai whispers pointing to Nathan and Kierra.
"Gurl," I shriek slapping her gently.
"But I hope so too," I laugh.
"I love you Adam," Mirai says simply.
"I love myself too."
"Wait Adam that means we have to leave now," Ryan yells. "It's fifteen minutes before 5, and it takes us an hour to get there."
"Oh shit," I scream. "Grab your stuff, I have to go get my skates."
The thing about Mirai is she wanted the wedding to reflect her life.
Both she and David were skaters.
And as a result, we're having the ceremony on a frozen pond in the middle of nowhere.
Mirai's just weird.
I slip into the car, attempting desperately not to mess up my suit.
We're finally going to be back together.
"YOU TURN HERE IDIOT!" Ryan screams shaking me out of my daze.
I swerve to the right, merging off the road down a small trail.
Trust Mirai and David to pick the stupidest spot to have their wedding.
I pull into the already crowded parking lot, grabbing my stuff from the back of the car.
Ryan's hand intertwines with mine.
"We got this," I reply my hand squeezing his.
"Oh my gosh, Adam?"
I spin around standing frozen to the spot.
It's Alex.
I run numbly into his arms, both of us in shock.
We've both changed so much.
"Oh yeah, um this is my boyfriend Ryan, Ryan this is Alex Shibutani," I say.
Alex and Ryan shake hands.
"Where's everyone else?" I ask.
"The majority of the girls are with Mirai getting ready," Alex says. "They ditched me in the middle of nowhere."
