After the stories had been told, repeated and dissected thoroughly, the crowd started to thin. When the new parents headed home to bed, Jenna and Liv left with Miriam and Leon to get hotel rooms, while Drake had decided to stay with Wes and Ben.

"So the wedding is tomorrow at four, right?" Wes gave Dave a hug as she moved toward the door, while Drake dropped a kiss on Anissa's cheek.
