A few months laterDecember 9th.
Joey was back in the studio, he was recording a new song after Sophie & his had their second date. They both went into a club that included dancing. He loved that date so now he's in the studio singing his heart out:

When Joey finished singing be got out the booth. Jared came up to him"She's special, isn't she?" he says as he pats Joes back.
"She sure is Jared, she sure is" Joey says smiling because he was also thinking about her.
___________
a few days later Joey was back at the studio with the band, they were recording for their song "We Own Tonight"
Joey was in the booth, Jon was sitting & chatting with Donnie.
Donnie says "I've never seen Joey sing from the heart" Jon chuckles & says "I don't know if you know but the girl he's with, she really & i mean really means something to Joe" Donnie smiles & says "No wonder"___________
Joey left he booth & Jordan went in, Joey tells Jared "Jared sorry man, but I gotta head out.. I have something urgent to do!"
Jon & Danny raise their brows.Jared looks away from Danny & Jon smiling & looks at Joey saying "Oh yea? Where to?"
Joey looks down raising his eyebrows, then says "I'm going to propose to her tonight ..."
Jared says "How so?""Well the boys; Danny, Jordan Donnie, & Jon are all going to meet me at the beach, where i'm going to take Sophie & take her on a walk. She doesn't know what's up tho, well besides the walk" Joey tells Jared.
______________
Joey arrived to Sophie's house, his hands in his pockets, fiddling with his thumb nails, the nervousness was kicking in. Joey had thoughts of how she'd react or answer to Joeys big question. Joey was scared that she'll turn him down, but his thoughts were disrupted by Sophie, opening the door & hugging him.
Joey smiled & asked if she was ready she said yes, as he grabbed her hand & walked her down the stairway.
_____________
Joey & Sophie arrived to the beach after they had their dinner at a fancy restaurant. Joey ran to the other side of the car to open the door for Sophie. They walked to the pier.
Joey started a conversation, which made him feel more comfortable from the nervousness he was feeling.
"It's been exactly four months since i've met you, did you know that?" Joey says smiling.
Sophie tightens her grip into Joeys hand saying "Yes, Yes I know that Joey." she says smiling.
Joey stopped them from walking, hold onto one another. Joey could feel the nervousness & the butterflies growing in his stomach. But all he wanted was a long comforting warming hug.
Joey was all in his thoughts thinking about how his life would be with Sophie. His thoughts were filled with him in his home, making this incredible dinner for he & her, he thought about the idea of the future of their relationship, where things will take them. All these thoughts filled Joey with comfort, & warmth.
__________
They continued walking aside the beach as the water would hit their feet. They had minutes until they arrived to where Joey was going to pop the big question.
All thoughts were getting to him but he remained to keep it cool so he won't give anything away. Just as the boys were going to come out Sophie received a call saying she is needed at the office.
"Joey, hun I am so so so sorry, but I was just called in to the office, someone is looking for a new housing or apartment." Sophie says to Joe.
With a frown & looking down Joey says "It's alright, you go, you're the best real estate they've got" he says with a wink & smiles. Sophie hugged him, then she walked to her car as Joey was waving good-bye with a smile, she drove off as he watched as her car disappeared.
Jon came up to Joey & pats his back saying "It's okay Joey, it's okay, maybe this gives you more time for a new idea to propose.. Maybe your apartment? Apartment 809? the time you guys met.. & the day of course!"
With a smile back on his face, Joey nodded in agreement.
Joey had arrived to the studio, having more inspiration in his next song. With the lyrics in his hands, Joey was ready to pour his heart out to his soon to be Fiancée.
Joey got in the booth & started singing:

𝙄𝙩'𝙨 𝙖 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙖𝙣'𝙩 𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙮."Very good, Very good" one of the sound producers says. As Joey finished the song, he exited the booth, he was applauded by everyone. In excitement, Joey started to turn a bit red.
"Thank you, Thank you, Everyone!!" he says. "Well I better get my rest. So should you guys! Goodnight everyone" Joeys adds.
Joey got in his car, he backed out of the parking lot & drove into the highway. With all his thoughts everywhere, he had finally arrived home.
Joey got outta his car & walked up his porch, Joey saw flowers on his doorstep & letter. Joey was confused, he walked up to his door slowly & he leaned down picking up the flowers & the letter. He read the name on the letter, with a smile he opened his door, he sat at the island in his kitchen. "From: Sophie, To: Joey" he chuckles saying "Our names seem to kind of rhyme" he says smiling. "She will do, she's my 𝘚𝘶𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭."
