“So, my suspicions have
been right all along!  I knew something was going on.  Elliott has been so
protective of Renee lately.  This is fantastic.”
    Ben hugged and kissed Renee and hugged Elliott.  He said,
“So, Dr. Moore really was congratulating me on the new baby.  You kids are
something else.  Congratulations, you two.  You have made Lena and me so happy.” 
    Mik gave Renee a hug and shook Elliott’s hand.  “This is
wonderful.  We’re so happy for you,” he said. 
    After things settled down, Joe and Liza passed around
glasses of champagne to everyone, except Renee, who was given a glass of ginger
ale.
    After all the excitement had settled down, Lena, Liza, and
Kayla huddled around Renee.
    Liza brought Lena and Kayla up-to-date on the wedding plans
so far.  She said, “Tomorrow we’re going to try on dresses.  I have already
made an appointment at a bridal salon in Beverly Hills.”
    Kayla said, “I want to go.  Do you mind if I tag along?  And
I can help with the plans, too.  Just tell me what I need to do.”
    Liza told Kayla that she was certainly welcome to come
along.  “Lena, would you like to join us?”
    Lena said, “Absolutely.  I can help, too.  Anything you
need.”
    Renee said, “Is there anything that I can do?”
    Liza turned to Renee and said, “After tomorrow, you’re going
to start taking it easy.  Of course you have to come for the dress selection
and to check out the wedding venue, but after that, we can take care of
everything else.”
    Elliott was walking over to their group.  He heard Liza tell
Renee to take it easy.  He said, “Can I get you ladies anything?”
    Renee said, “I think we’re okay, thanks though.”
    He kissed her and whispered in her ear, “Love you, baby.”
    She placed her arms around his neck and drew him into a deep
kiss.
    After the excitement had somewhat settled, Kayla called Matt
to tell him the news, and Renee called her dad to let him know.

    After everyone had left, Renee and Liza were cleaning the
kitchen.  Liza said, “Oh, by the way, we’re going to Vegas.  We leave Friday
and come back Thursday, rehearsal is Friday and Saturday is . . . well, you
know the rest.”
    Renee looked incredulously at Liza.  “We’re what?!  Liza, I
can’t just . . .”
    “What?” Liza said.  “Of course you can.  Look, this gives
you and Elliott a break from sexing every night right before the big
day.  Besides, I’ve always wanted to go to Vegas and we’re right next door to
it.  We’re staying at the Bellagio.”
    “Who said we’re sexing every night?  And even if we were, is
a break really necessary?”
    “Liza laughed and said, “Girl please, as fine as Elliott is,
I know you get that on a whenever basis.  That, plus the fact that you’re
pregnant.  But really, Vegas will be fun.  We can see some shows, stay at a
very nice hotel and get ogled by men before we have to come back and be wives.”
    Renee had to admit that it did sound like fun.  “Okay, but
you get to be the one to tell Elliott since this is all your idea.”
    “And when he asks, I’ll just tell him exactly what I told
you,” Liza said.
    Just as Liza had finished saying that she would tell Elliott
about the Vegas trip, Elliott was walking into the kitchen.  Joe had broken the
news to him about Liza’s Vegas plans.
    Elliott said, “I don’t think Renee needs to be going to
Vegas right now.”
    Liza said to Elliott, “There’s nothing to worry about.  I
promise to take very good care of her, I won’t let her overdo things, and I
will bring her back all rested and ready for your big day.”
    Renee glanced over at Liza, who was looking very satisfied
with herself, and said, “I don’t want Elliott to be worried about me.  Maybe we
should go another time.  After I have the baby maybe would be better.”
    Liza said, “Well, it would be ashamed to do that, Renee.  I
mean, we came all this way and everything.  And you know how I told you
