Dizzy snorted. “Hah, it’s quite by chance that we’re here because you didn’t let us know you were getting married. If not for Spider insisting I had to come with I would have missed it. You do know Kid is going to be pissed as fuck, right?”

Spider pointed at Dizzy. “What he said.”

Hawk shrugged. “I had to grab the opportunity and lock it down, brothers. I’m sorry Kid won’t be here but he will understand.”

There came a bang on his door and the man himself walked in.

“What is that about I will fucking understand? Bullshit, brother. I had to grab a fucking crowded as hell flight to get us here in time. Just so you know, my old lady does not like people in her bubble. If not for Spider calling and giving me a head’s up I would have missed my best friend’s wedding. Not cool motherfucker, not cool at all.”

Kid grabbed him and held tight, slapping his back hard.

“So fucking pleased for you, my brother. She’s an amazing woman and perfect for you.”

He hadn’t known how much he had missed his best friend until right this moment. Having him here for the wedding was the best gift ever.

“Thank you for coming, brother. I didn’t call to let you know because I knew you had a lot going on down there. I didn’t want to draw you away when you’re needed. But, saying that, I’m still fucking grateful to have you by my side today.”

Kid smacked him hard and drew away, holding on to his biceps. “You have been my best friend all my life. I would drop anything and everything to stand with you, always. Iron Dogz forever, forever Iron Dogz.”

All of them instantly repeated the words, smacking a fist over their hearts.

And as always Spider was the one drawing them back to the fun side of life.

“I have to say, I thought I would be walking in here and see you dressed up like a fancy citizen. Instead here you stand, the badass President, dressed all in black.” He looked at Kid and made a worried face. “We’re going to have to stage an intervention because he’s even got those poor babies dressed all in black.”

Dizzy started laughing and shaking his head. “No brother, not all in black, last I saw them someone had put little red Christmas hats on them. Looked fucking cute.”

“Aunt Suzy.” He said.

“Mum.” Ice and Spider said at the same time.

“I think we need to get out of here and get to our seats for the arrival of Father Christmas.” Hawk said and his brothers laughed and shook their heads.

“I’m taking photos to show the brothers back home. They’re not going to believe this shit.” Kid said.

“We’re going to need beers for that.” Spider said with a wink.

“To early, brother.” Dizzy said. “But I did hear there would be eggnog.”

All of them shuddered in horror.

“Nope, I’ll pass on that one.”

“Chris and the girls had breakfast sandwiches going when I arrived. We should get out there before they’re all gone because she did say once they’re gone we’ll have to wait for lunch.” Kid said.

They left the office and Hawk locked up then followed them. He pulled the steel door closed and followed the noise coming from the kitchen.

Walking in he was immediately greeted with wide smiles from the women. Chris, Genna, Frieda and all the club girls were hard at work. A platter with a mound of sandwiches sat at one end of the work space.

“I sent your boys outside.” Frieda said. “The girls will bring the platters out in a minute.” She waved a hand shooing him out of the kitchen.

He retreated and walked through the dining area and out the wide open doors leading onto the entertainment area at the back of the clubhouse. The way they redesigned the clubhouse really worked for him now. Nodding at Damon who was manning the bar he headed out to where he saw his brothers sitting at the picnic tables that had been arranged in a semi-circle around the tree and the gazebo. Both those were the focal points today.

DC had said River would be decorating the gazebo and the tables this morning and it looked stunning. All the tables had red and gold cloths draped over them with a line of fake greenery running down the length. In the middle of each was a big white candle surrounded with green stuff and red and gold baubles. White wire basket things held red serviettes with little green trees on them. Another white wire thing had bottles with sauces and salad dressings in it. Scattered all over the tables were little white snow drop cut outs.

He hoped like hell that shit was biodegradable. But knowing River he was sure it was.

And finally he looked at the gazebo, really looked at the gazebo.
