It was the last semester of their junior year when Aspen who was attending college at UNC to be closer to her mom got an invitation to Natalie and Bucky's engagement party. It was addressed to both her and Mason but Mason was over seas. She sent him an email to let him know that when he came in that they were to attend the party. 

She marked yes as coming and placed back in the pre stamped envelope. She placed it in the mailbox on her way back out to softball practice. That night while she was doing her homework Bucky face timed her. "Hey gorgeous.." he said 

"hey..I got your party invite today I put no.." she said 

He scoffed "Why not..isn't lover boy suppose to be in town that weekend." he said 

"I'm kidding I wouldn't miss your engagement party. I gotta see this rock in person." she said

"I gotta see yours make sure Mason Deacon Carter did my best friend's ring justice." he said 

She rolled her eyes. "Is that Aspen Marie.." she heard in the back ground.

Everyone gathered around him "Hey guys I miss you all." she said as she blew them all kisses. 

"Aww you didn't have to give me so many kisses" Bucky said 

"Um they weren't all for you. They were for Natalie Hope Val Wanda and Sam." she said 

"Aww baby girl we miss that sass. See I told you Barnes she likes me more." Sam said 

"You are mean.. " Bucky said 

She smiled and said "You know you love me." 

"Yeah I just wanted to call to make you were doing okay." he said 

"I'm good just doing my homework." she said 

She had a beep on her skpe "Hey guys gotta go Mason is calling love you all see you soon!" she said as she hung up and switched to Mason. 

She talked to him for another hour then finished her homework. 

Two weeks later she was picking up Mason from the tarmac. "Hey beautiful baby." he said 

She kissed him "I've missed you two years is to long.. I have a wedding to plan ya know." she said 

He smiled "I know baby I have a cherry to pop." he said in her ear.

She giggled they got in her car then they left for Georgia. They pulled up at UGA to find their friends waiting in the parking lot for them. The boys ran to Mason and hugged him as they yelled "CARTER!!" 

 "Oh boys it's good to see some one in civilian clothes." he said 

The girls hugged Aspen and gushed over her ring and she gushed over their rings. Natalie said "Wait wait while we got the boys here I saw an idea on pinterest for pictures. Hey Teagan do us favor." Natalie said as seen Teagan another cheerleader come out. 

She had Teagan take a picture of the girls holding out their hands with their rings and the guys lined up in the exact order of the girls. Teagan used her selfie stick up over the girls to get the picture just right. She took three copies "Thanks Teagan." she said 

They all headed to the party they were all eating and mingling dancing and drinking having the best time. At the end of the night Natalie said "Girls I need you all to come here." 

On one of the tables was boxes. "Look for your initials then open them." Natalie said

They each opened the boxes Natasha said "Oh Nat you know I would love to be your maid of honor." 

Aspen read her box "Thank you Natalie I'll definitely be a bridesmaid.." she said
