We finished going around the circle and then we dug into the rest of our gifts. Ford gave me a new notebook(not that I really needed it... I hadn't used my own journal in months), Stanley gave me a stuffed cat in a Mystery Shack shirt, and Mr. Pines gave me a new set of ridding gloves. I opened them randomly causing for me to come upon Mason's last. I picked up the small box with the bow wrapped around it. I looked curiously at Mason who just smiled excitedly. I untied to bow and set the ribbon between me and Kate. I opened the little box. "Oh. My. God." I looked disbelieving the small round bit of metal and rock in the box. I took out the ring and examined it. It was an actulal engagement ring.Time to tell him. I swallowed and looked at Mason.

Mason was down on one knee in front of me. He pulled off my glove as I stood up and slipped on the golden band. "Lillyin, will you m-"

 "Lillyin, will you m-"

"Mason." I cut him off. "We need to talk in private." I stood and walked out to the gift shop. I turned around to see a distraught looking Mason following me.

"What's wrong Lillyin? Was I too soon?" he sounded desperate.

I dropped my head and reached into my coat pocket. I pulled out a small pink and white strip. A pregnancy test.

I threw it to him and he caught it

I threw it to him and he caught it. I looked away as he stared at it in disbelief. I sat on the stool and rubbed my face. "Y-you're... W-when? H-how?" Mason stuttered.

"When? Mabel's party were she accidentally got all of us drunk." I hid my face in my hands. "As for the how, I'm pretty sure you know how that works... There was a picture... Of us... On the camera..."

"Is it mine?" his voice had lost all emotion at this point and I didn't blame him

"Is it mine?" his voice had lost all emotion at this point and I didn't blame him. This was a scary thing.

"I think so..." I let a tear fall from my eye to the floor. "I hope so..."

"I don't care..." I turned to face Mason as he set his hand on my shoulder. "Even if it's not mine I'm going to raise it like it is." I felt his fist clench around the back hem of my shawl. "I love you and nothing will change that. Ever." He wrapped his arms around me. "You haven't taken off the ring... is that a yes?"

I smiled as another tear rolled down my face. "Yes." I kissed him and wiped the tear from my face.

Smiling he helped me up from the stool and held me close to him. He kissed my forehead and we stood there just long enough for my eye to go from red and puffy to normal. Taking my hand he led me back to the living room. Everyone in the room watched as we came back in.

Mabel looked most worried of all. "Are you two alright?"

I nodded. I smiled as I stood beside the couch and Mason got down on his knee again. "Let's try this again." He took the ring off my finger. "Lillyin Castle, would you make me the happiest man in the world and become my wife?" he slipped the ring on my finger and the wall clock chimed 11.

I was smiling like crazy and couldn't stop. "Well I don't know how happy I'll make you but I can try." I reached out and put my arms around his neck, pulling him close. I pressed my lips to his and some of the Pines clapped. I held Mason's hand as I looked around. Both Mrs. Pines and [oddly, I might add] Stanley were crying a little. Ford was smiling down at his picture again and this time I could see it was a photo of a woman. Mabel was bouncing with excitement and rambling about OTP's. Jake and Kate were smiling at each other and holding hands.

I grabbed my phone out of my purse beside the couch. "Alright. Everyone calm down. I'm going to tell my family." I video called Susan.

She answered instantly. "Where are you?"

"Hello to you too, sis

"Hello to you too, sis." I rolled my eye. Even she wasn't going to dampen my mood. "I'm at the Mystery Shack. Don't worry I'm safe." I adjusted my phone to show Mason too. "Now get everyone else. I have some great news."

"Okay..." she sounded curious. The camera blurred as she ran around and found everyone. Soon my entire family was standing in front of the phone camera. "Now what?"

I lifted my hand. My new ring gleamed in the tiny little square and my mom gasped. My sisters all squealed excitedly. I laughed as I showed the Pines family what was happening on my phone. I decided not to tell anyone I was going to have a baby for a little bit. I realized why Mrs. Pines had been so dramatic. She'd known he was going to ask me. I smiled as Mrs. Pines as she laughed at my screaming sisters.

A/N

Yes. I know. Don't yell at me. The most advanced home test can only tell you two weeks before your first missed period. Just deal.
