Jacelyn's P.O.V

"Idaho?" Mariska chokes on her ramen noodles.

"Yeah. Idaho. Jacelyn can't stay here with Jake following her everywhere she goes. It's not okay and I thought since you've always wanted to go to Idaho , it'd be the only way to get you to go. We still have to talk to Tara about it, we just wanted to see what y'all thought."

"We still haven't even told our parents about the babies or us being engaged," Micah replies, "I'm not saying it's not a good idea, it is a pretty good idea. I'd go as soon as it'd be okay. I don't know what to do because I'm sure both of our parents want to be there when we have the babies and-"

"Why do you keep saying babies? And you're engaged?" Adam cut him off.

"I forgot we hadn't told y'all yet. It's been a crazy day. But at the appointment this morning the doctor picked up two heartbeats. We're having twins. We still haven't told anyone about Mariska being pregnant, except you guys. You know how my folks are about having a ring on or being married before you have kids? Well I didn't want to disappoint them and blah, blah, blah, so I asked Mariska to marry me and I know I shouldn't have asked now but my parents and all that and I have had her ring in my drawer for a while so I thought why not ask her," Micah spills I all out to us. That's so much to take in at one time. Adam and I haven't said anything. I don't know what to say.

"Guys?" Mariska catches our attention.

"Sorry, that was a lot to take in at one time, but congratulations. I'm proud of y'all. When you think about it, you guys have been around each other for what three or four years? Because Micah was too scared to ask you out." We all laugh, it was pretty funny. Micah's face turns blood red.

"Hey, don't pick on the boy, it was pretty scary asking you out," I blush.

"You guys act like we're princess, it shouldn't have been that hard," I play around with Adam.

"Anyways, what do you think we should do about moving? Me and Jacelyn can go ahead and go to Idaho sometime this month after we find somewhere to live and all that junk, and when Mariska has the babies we'll come back down and stay for a while until it's okay for y'all to travel, that is if you want to move to Idaho." Adam and I would be living alone. Oh my word. Who knows what would happen.

"That sounds like a good idea, but you guys still have to talk to your parents about it. You know how they are, too. They'll ask where you're going to work and what college you're gonna go to and all that mess. Me and Mariska were gonna leave tonight and go stay at my parents and tell them the news and what we have planned, tomorrow we're gonna go see you guys' parents and tell them so maybe y'all should just look up stuff about Idaho, how long the drive will be, where you'll be living, where you can work and where you'll go to school," Micah is good at planning stuff, maybe he'll help us with our move.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea!" Adam looks at me, "what do you say? Yes?"

"We're moving to Idaho!" I smile and Adam puts his arm around me.

We all sit in the living room, watching TV.

I sit here on the loveseat wondering about everything. I have work on Monday. It's Saturday evening and I haven't even went to get my paycheck. I think Adam missed this whole weeks worth of work. I know Monday and Tuesday he wasn't feeling good so he was off and then everything happened Tuesday and Wednesday was my birthday. Everything has been so crazy. This week feel's like it has been a month.

I begin to wonder about where we'll live and if me and Adam will both take our trucks and drive serperately or if he'll get a trailer and put it on there. I guess I'll find out when the time comes.

It's 6 something now and I decide to get up and go get ready. It's Saturday night and I want to do something fun.

I go to my room and go through my closet. I think I might get Adam to go to the mall with me and then eat frozen yogurt. It sounds like a pretty good idea. I pick out a lose, flowy hot pink tank top and my other pair of black shorts. I dig through my bag for my straightener, and I finally find it. I go to the bathroom, shut the door, and plug in my straightener. I'll let it get warmed up while I'm changing. Once I'm in my new outfit, I brush my hair, untangling the ratty mess. I begin straightening my long, light brown hair, it goes down to the middle of my back. It takes me a few minutes to get it all flat. I unplug my straightener and leave it there to cool off.

I go back downstairs, and Adam has fell asleep on the loveseat.

"Going somewhere?" Mariska asks me

"Yeah, I'm gonna pick up my paycheck and go to the mall and to get frozen yogurt. I'm gonna see if Adam wants to come with me," I shake Adam a couple times and he wakes up. "Do you wanna go with me?"

"Where are we going?"

"You'll see just go get ready,"
