Uriel frowned. "And what's that suppsoed to mean?"

"What do you think Papa? I can't believe this is happening" Ashleigh said.

Uriel laughed. "I know, I know. I was just joking."

At a blink of an eye, the three had a group hug.
"I'm so happy for you and Mama" Ashleigh said.

"So, I've got a few pieces of advice to go with my congratulations for you, Bakura; beware of the period, never argue with her when she's pregnant, and when it comes to trying to agree on something just smile and nod." Yugi finished. As he sat down, Melhana whacked him over the head. "Hey!"

Selena laughed and stood up. "Before the reception, Ashleigh gave me her speech for the bride." She said. "So that I could deliver it in her place. Here goes..nothing..." She widened her eyes as she saw what was at the beginning of the speech." Er...well...I guess she'd know how that works, or Yana wouldn't be here...."

Everyone laughed as Yana slumped and hid under the table at the same time as Yugi, both embarrised.
"Now that is funny" Anzu said. Even the newlyweds laughed

Melhana was in fits of giggles on Bakura's shoulder. The only part of Yugi that was showing was the tip of one of his hair spikes. "Honestly, I'm not even sure this would be a good idea to say...." Selena said. "Er...well...uh...I think Ashleigh was trying to embarass Yugi with this......"

"Possibly payback from embarrassing Bakura I presume?" Anzu asked.

"Possibly," Selena said. "I'm gonna try my best with this...If I can stop laughing long enough to get anything out."

"Good luck" Anzu said as the laughter died down ant the two arose from their hiding places.

Yugi was still beet red. Next time I see Ashleigh I'm gonna tell her she's evil. He thought as Selena began the speech.

This is going to be good Anzu thought.

Selena cleared her throat as she read from the paper Ashleigh gave her. "'Call me a dreamer if you want, but I'm of the opinion that there's a love out there for everyone. You, Melhana, have found yours. When I heard you were getting married to Bakura, I didn't expect it. I didn't really see you as the "getting married" type. Either way, I was still happy for you two.'" Selena read.

Everyone nodded in agreement at that.
At least that part was sweet Yana thought.

"'But....I guess deep down I thought you two would be perfect for each other. I wish you both luck in the future with your new marriage, and keep the' I'm not even gonna mention that 'to a minimum.'" Selena finished for Ashleigh.

This time Yugi and Yana laughed with everyone and clapped.
"That was interesting" Anzu said when Selena sat down.

"Yeah...seems Ashleigh doesn't have as innocent a mind as we thought." Selena said. She handed Anzu the paper. "Take a look if you want."

"I guess it was only this time, just to be funny" Anzu replied, as she read the speech, "She usually don't have that mindset. Oh, can you take Ashleigh out somewhere? We're going to try and put the peices together about why now there isn't any earthquakes and change of attitude."

Selena stared at Anzu. "You sure that's a good idea?" She asked. "You know full well what she thinks of me...."

"Well, it would sort things out between you. It's better than nothing" Anzu replied.

"Yeah, I guess...." Selena said, trailing off.

"Thanks" Anzu replied, "It's better that you two breaking tides."

"Provided it doesn't dissolve into me and Ashleigh having a catfight." Selena said.

"We hope it doesn't become like that" Anzu agreed.

Selena nodded in agreement as a familiar song came up on the speakers.

It was the recording of Selena singing Nation of Love with the piano. She stared at Melhana, who winked. 'I'm gonna kill you for that!' She linked.

'Sure you will.' Melhana replied. 'You had an amazing voice, Selena. Ryo and I agreed on having this played at the reception.'
