Impulsive Ever After

The gang is back for one last hurrah on the big island of Hawaii. Harry and Mathilde are renewing their vows, and everyone is taking an extended vacation as a group.

Some fun in the surf or the jungle, pedicures and spas, a beautiful wedding on the beach. Sounds simple, right?

Oh so wrong!


"No, we were just trying to figure out which one of us would do it," Luca said, taking his role of ringleader of their little circus of horrors quite seriously.

"Which one of you would do what?" Constance was so confused.

"Pee on her hand." Gabriel was very matter-of-fact about it, and Constance paled at his words. She gritted out her next sentence, trying to find her inner Zen. She was sure that bitch had thought Hawaii less relaxing than first expected and had flown the coop.

"There...there will be no peeing here on the beach-" she began to say.

"I read in a book that pee helps jellyfish stings," Luca informed her.

She closed her eyes. "Yes, so it does, but there will be none of that here, nor anywhere else-"

"I don't want them to pee on me!" Lizzie's eyes went wide. "I'll have to see their thingies!"

Leonora started to giggle, her hands clapping over her mouth and face turning red with hilarity.

"There will also be no thingy-showing-to pee or otherwise-and no-"

"-the pee would help," Luca said sagely.

"No!" Constance stood straight up and proclaimed the stupidest and wildest thing she could think of. "There will no peeing, thingy-showing, or anything else done in bad taste for the rest of this entire trip!"

All the kids-even RJ-looked at her like she'd grown snakes from her head like a modern-day Medusa.
