"Well you don't look horrified like you did when I asked you to move in." Sam said still waiting on an answer to his proposal. She bent down and kissed him. "Is that a yes?"

"Yes." She said tearfully. He put the ring on her finger and stood up. They kissed and hugged. "I love you."

"I love you too." "Everyone's gonna be surprised."

"Why because I said yes?"

"No, because on the chance that you would say no, I didn't tell anyone about it."

"No one knows you were planning on proposing to me?"

"No."

They went back to the hotel. She turned to face him and put her arms around his neck.

"I guess we think alike." She said.

"Why?"

"For the last year and a half I've wanted to marry you but I was to afraid to bring it up." "I'm glad I wasn't alone."

"When I really knew I wanted to was at Amy's wedding." "I mean, I'd thought about it before that but seeing you come down the aisle in that dress, looking so beautiful, I knew I wanted that to be us someday."

"Do you mind a big wedding?" "I went cheap in my last one." "This time I want the works."

"We can have whatever kind of wedding you want." "For now though." He picked her up like you would a bride. She laughed. They kissed. He laid her down on the couch getting on top of her.

The next morning Emily came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and went into the bedroom. A few seconds later she felt Sam's arms wrap around her waist. He moved her hair and started kissing the side of her neck.

"Sweetheart, stop." She said smiling. "I have go get Penelope."

"A few minutes more won't hurt." He turned her around to face him. "I think we should tell Penelope first."

"Me to." They kissed and kept kissing. He took off her towel. She took off his. He laid her back on the bed.

When Emily got back to the room with Penelope they told her to sit down and sat on either side of her.

"Penelope we have something to tell you." Sam said.

Emily had the ring in her pocket and put it back on behind her back. "Daddy and I are getting married." Emily said taking her hand out from behind her back to show Penelope the ring.

"Really?!" She said excitedly.

"I asked mommy to marry me last night and she said yes." Sam said.

"This is great." She hugged both of them. "I've wanted you guys to get married for a long time."

"I'm gonna go tell aunt Amy." Emily said. She grabbed the laptop and went into the bedroom.

Emily connected to video chat. Amy popped up a few minutes later.

"Hi." Amy said.

"Hi." Emily said happily.

"You look happy today."

"I am." "I have something to tell you."

"You're pregnant?"

"No." She held her ring hand in front of the camera.

"Oh my god!" She said shocked. "Sam proposed to you?!"

"Yes."

"I'm so happy for you."

"Thanks."

"When's the wedding?"

"We haven't talked about it yet." "If we decide to do it out of state, can you try to work out something with the parole board to come be my maid of honor?"

"I'll try."

Later that night Sam had just arrived at the arena. Penelope rode with Emily so he was alone. He was walking up to the doors. Austin came walking up beside him.

"Hey man." Austin said.

"Hey." "I proposed to Emily." "She said yes."

"That's great."

"Wanna be my best man?"

"Sure."

Penelope was getting a Coke. Emily was at the make-up table. Britt came walking up.

"Sam and I are engaged." Emily blurted out.

"What?! She said shocked. They hugged. "It's about time." "Have you guys set a date yet?"

"No." "Will you be a bridesmaid?"

"Sure."

Three days later Emily was in the hotel room on her laptop. Sam just walked through the door.

"Hi sweetheart." She said looking up from the screen.

"Hi." He went over to her. They kissed. He sat down next to her. "What are you doing?"

"Figuring out possible wedding dates."

"Well let's see."
