"You're getting married in a week. Why aren't you more excited?" I felt extremely guilty, not only becuase I wasn't touching the pancakes Melody had made, also becuase I was down about this whole wedding thing. Even though I thought these feelings would subside, they never did. And no I'm not talking about cold feet or pregnancy hormones. I'm referring to another set of emotions that never went away.

"Whisky at breakfast?" I grumbled at Melody to change the subject, she stared at the bottom of her barley full glass and then looked me in the eyes.

"Eat your pancakes." She played my game, steering the eagle eyes away from her and gestured to my plate.

"I've been worried about you. Suppose since Bon's been better I never noticed-"

Melody cut me off with a moment of celebration dedicated to my fiancee. "Heard old Bonny quit the bottle."

"He did." I answered happily, topping up the confirmed announcement with a simple smile. "But Mel-."

"Gotta go." She said and kissed my cheek with a platonic manner. I sighed heavily as she left, and despite my sick stomach I gave into her constant pleading for me to eat the pancakes. I spent most of my morning alone, studying the wedding dress and tiara that I'd picked out with the aiding of Melody.

"Is Mel still here?" Bon asked me as he exercised his right to a key for my house. Along with him he brought along the rest of the
AC/DC, including Phil who I still had quite a bone to pick with and would start a shouting match with at any given opportunity.

"Angela...I was hoping to talk with you..." Phil said nervousl y, which triggered a series of emotions I'd rather forgret all together. The day Adelaide passed he was like this, and this only reminded me of that horrible moment, but with impressive efforts I pushed through the uncertainty along with my self identified attuide of displeasement and let him talk. "It's about Adelaide. I really did love her and I know you wern't happy I was at the funeral..."

"You're right. I wasn't happy. You can still come to the wedding since you're Bon's friend but whatever friendship we had...it's done. I don't want you in my close circle of friends. Understood?"

"Angela..." Bon said softly, then he looked to Phil. "Maybe I should be the one to talk to her about this. As soon as Melody gets back."

"Why does she have to be here for this?" I asked with curiosity, I noticed a small smile tugging at Bon's lips which confused me even more considering the circumstances.

"You'll see. I think you'll actully be pretty happy." Bon informed me, I titled my head and he left a kiss on my lips for a distraction.

"Call Mel." Cliff suggested to me as he tried to find the phone. Malcolm did the work for him, only looking to me for her phone number.

Before I even got a word out, Cliff recited the entire number without any hiccups. Those two just can't deal with their feelings, can they?

"Looks like you're gonna be getting hitched soon too." Angus teased and Cliff flipped him off.

"Do I need to separate you two?" Malcolm asked with a snort.

"He started it." Cliff pouted like a child and pointed a finger at Angus. Again, childish.

"Just somebody call her, I don't think Angela wants to wait any longer for the surprise.."

"You're right. I don't like to be kept waiting..." I winked and then laughed. "I'll make you pay tonight."

"EW GROSS!" Angus fake gagged and Malcolm sighed, patting Angus on the back and rolling his eyes.

"You're a peice of work sometimes Angus."
