all,” I say, laughing.
    “Oh, mine was the parade.”
    “The parade, hands down,” Brian and Frank say at the same time.
    “It was the best. I can’t believe I actually made it onto Mickey’s float before they noticed and we had to bail. Or,
    more accurately, I had to jump off and hide in the crowd,” Shawna says while laughing loudly. Today was a blast. It was nice to be free of the stress of life, and to let go. It’s been a long time since I’ve had so much fun.
    “Shawna, not so loud. You’re going to get us kicked out of the restaurant,” I say, trying to be stern but failing miserably as I crumble into a fit of laughter.
    “Brian, how did you survive with these two? They are full of shit, and I’m shocked they’ve never been arrested for some of the stuff they’ve done.”
    “Oh, Frank, don’t let Brian fool you! He’s the mastermind of some of that crazy stuff. If you remember, he’s the one who suggested we get on the Mickey float,” Shawna says.
    Tuning out everyone else, I think about the best part of the day. The part that was better than beating everyone at shooting—the motorboat cruise. Brian and I made sure we didn’t have to share a boat. While it isn’t the best ride for excitement, it did give us time alone together to enjoy each other's company. We didn’t talk much because Brian had other plans in mind. He leaned over and whispered in my ear, “Imagine we’re in Paris, the most romantic city.”
    He didn’t give me a chance to respond to him before his mouth was on mine. I tuned the world out. It was only us. His tongue didn’t waste any time before pressing into my mouth. Our tongues dueled for control. I wanted more from him. I slowly worked my hand down his stomach, but he stopped me. I tried to pull away from the kiss, but he wouldn’t let me, continuing to kiss me like I was his everything. Finally, he kissed down my neck then back up to my ear and whispered, “This will be continued tonight.” 
    “Donna, what has your face all flushed?” Shawna asks.
    “Just thinking about today and the amazing time we all had.”
    “It was a great time. Now for some food and drinks to finish the night off,” Frank says.
    I love that Frank fits into our group. It’s been the three of us for so long that I was beginning to think we’d never get a fourth. I’m happy Shawna found a great man. By far, he’s the best boyfriend she’s ever had. I really hope these two can make it.
    “We have something to tell you, and I’m not sure if you’ll be happy about it,” Shawna says. “You already know we’re getting married, but you don’t know we’re moving to Wisconsin in a few weeks. Frank has an opportunity to work for a great law firm there. He hasn’t been able to find much here, and we don’t want him to wait around to find one. You know that I love Wisconsin. It would even be better if he could get me season tickets to the Green Bay Packers games.”
    Shawna said that last part with stars in her eyes, but I don’t feel happy for her. “What? You’re moving even farther away?  I thought California was bad enough. Now, we’ll never get to see each other,” I mumble, knowing I’m being a bitch. I should be happy Frank has a great job opportunity and he wants to take care of Shawna.
    “Hey, it’s not going to be like that,” Shawna says.
    See, now, I’ve made her cry, but we should be celebrating her engagement. Did I say that I’m a bitch? I really need to stop thinking about only me and start thinking about others.
    “Donna, I know you don’t want us to move away, but what if there was a possibility you can move with Shawna?” Frank asks.
    I’m not sure why he’d ask, because I doubt it’s really a possibility. Brian said he may leave his dad’s firm, but I don’t know if he really will.
    “Frank, what are you saying?” I ask, not wanting to assume he's saying there's another opening for Brian.
    “Brian, I was going to tell you this later, but I
