"Hello?"

"Happy Valentine's Day."

"Ethan," Rebecca smiled. "Hi. I was just thinking about you."

"Good thoughts I hope."

"Always," Rebecca looked out the window. The sun was just setting. "So, where are you?"

"Atlantic City," he said.

"Doesn't Luke need you to work tonight?"

"Well, I'm sure he'd kick up a fuss if he weren't here as well."

"What?"

"We're witnessing a wedding tonight."

"Who's getting married?"

"My brother and Sam are tying the knot tonight."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Nope," Ethan said. "Sam, Lulu, and Maxie are downstairs picking out a dress and I'm about to go meet Lucky and Luke to pick out some suits. I just wanted to give you a heads up so you wouldn't be reading it along with everyone else when it hits the Herald."

"Thanks. So, where's Sam's family when all of this is happening?"

"On Nikolas' side," Ethan grumbled.

"Are you serious? Alexis isn't going to see her daughter get married because Sam chose Lucky's side in the great Spencer/Cassa-whine war?"

"You got it."

"Unbelievable. My mother would kill to be able to have been there when Emily got married even if it was just as another guest and Alexis is voluntarily giving it up to what? Curry favor with the head of the family?"

"Pretty much," Ethan said.

"Stupid," Rebecca mumbled.

"Pretty much," Ethan repeated, making Rebecca smile. "Look, I should get going. I just wanted to pass on the news."

"Thank you. Do me a favor? When you and Lucky are alone, tell him I wish him all the happiness in the world. Sam's a good woman. They'll have a good life."

"I will," Ethan agreed. "Bye."

"Bye."

Rebecca smiled as she hung up the phone. Lucky was finally going to be happy and it wasn't with Elizabeth.

She looked around the room and her eyes fell on her laptop. It was about 3am in Paris so calling was out of the question but what harm could emailing do?

She sat down and fired up the machine before she opened her email. She hit compose and started to type. She just hoped her Portuguese was up to snuff. She and her sister had been practicing languages on each other since about a month after they regained consciousness. Right now, Rebecca was practicing her Portuguese and Emily, or Lee, as Rebecca had taken to calling her, was practicing her Greek.

Caro Lee,

Boa notícia do *Oz*, *Emerald bom City* realmente. There' casamento do S.A. que ocorre hoje à noite. Está indo finalmente estar feliz porque encontrou uma menina que o ame ambos como seu melhor amigo e seu tudo. Mas, não é Elizabeth. Acredite por favor que eu sou pesaroso porque tanto quanto eu a desprezo mim sabe que é quanto você a amou uma vez e porque eu te amo mim é pesaroso que não está indo elaborar para eles.

Amor a todos,

Reb

Dear Lee,

Good news from Oz, well Emerald City really. There's a wedding taking place tonight. He is finally going to be happy because he found a girl who loves him both as her best friend and her everything. But, it is not Elizabeth. Please believe that I am sorry because as much as I despise her I know that is how much you once loved her and because I love you I am sorry that it is not going to work out for them.

Love to everyone,

Reb
