Fuck it list...

"We're going to London?" I asked, as Colby carefully lifts my broken leg onto the sofa cushion.

"Yep!" Elton exclaims popping the 'p'.

I furrow my brow, confused as to why.

"Didn't we go there already?" I ask crossing my arms, well crossing my arm as the other one is in a sling and cast.

"Yep!" Elton says, again, popping the 'p'.

"Then why are we going back? We've never gone to the same place twice." I ask. Elton shrugs. "It's a surprise."

My gut twists when I hear him say that.

Colby and I head up stairs to my room, where he helps me pack my suitcase.

"It's only for the weekend and I'll be there with you. And you know... so will Elton. But it'll be fun. I think.."

"You're not helping, Colby."

"Yeah I know."

Ten hour flight later...

"Yay, London... a place we've already been before.."

"You could be a little more enthusiastic."

"I'm just scared that I'm not gonna like your surprise, Elton."

"Oh you will, Casey."

Elton leads all of us to a taxi outside. Colby holds my (non broken) hand in his. I smile at the gesture.

"Am I really gonna like this surprise?"

"I don't know. It all depends if whether or not you like it."

"Well that sure cleared things up." I reply sarcastically.

"You're welcome."

We arrive, after a short taxi ride, in front of a building/house. (Idk what they live in. Apartment? House?)

We get out of the cab and Elton pays the guy. Elton turns back to me and smiles before making his way to the door. I follow with Colby by my side. My Heart is dropping more than I want it to. What's going on?

Elton knocks on the door and we wait.

A few seconds pass before the door swings open to reveal an elderly man.

"Huh? Who are you?" He asks in an oddly exaggerated senior citizen voice mix with a British accent. "I'm Elton. This is Casey and Colby. We are here to visit you."

The man nods with a small smile before he lets us inside. We sit on his sofa in the lounge.

"Let me just get some tea!" The man exclaims as he waddles out of the room.

"Elton?! Who is that?! Why are we here?!" I exclaim in a hushed voice. Elton shrugs before he turns his attention back to the door.

A few minutes go by and I'm afraid the man injured himself or something. But before I can considering standing up to go see a figure emerges from the kitchen.

I gasp.

"You're.... you.... Phil?!" I exclaim as i nearly jump off the sofa, which causes me to almost fall over from my broken leg. Colby catches me before I have the chance to fall. He helps me stand up straight.

I walk over to Phil and he captures me in a huge hug.

"Oh my god! I can't believe I'm meet you!" I exclaim. Phil chuckles, "Its our treat!" He says. Out of the corner of my eye I see Dan come out behind Phil. I gasp again and release Phil so I can trap Dan in the same hug.

"Oh my god! Elton! This is the best surprise you've ever given me! Ever!" I chuckle along with the guys.

"Well that's not the only thing." Elton says. I look back at him after I pull away from Dan.

"We are going to tour London." Elton says.

I frown. "We've toured London once before." Elton shrugs before he leads us all out of the building/house.

As we walk through London, Colby and I slow down towards the back of the group.

"Is everything set?" I ask quietly. Colby nods his head. "In front of Big Ben." We both nod in agreement.

Once the clock tower comes into view I can feel my nerves start to act up.

"Big Ben! Big Ben is actually the name of the bell not the tower." Phil states matter of factly. We all chuckle before everyone goes silent.

Colby clears his throat causing the guy's to give him their attention.

"I have something I want to do." Colby says. I pretend to make a confused face, while Elton, Dan and Phil gain real ones.

Colby grabs my crutches and hands them to Elton. Elton reluctantly holds them for me. Colby then stands squarely in front of me with my hands in his.

"Casey. I've been wanted to ask you this for a while now and I feel like now is the perfect time."

Colby bends down to one knee and pulls a small box from his back pocket. I gasp and my hands fly out of his grasp to clamp over my gaping mouth.

I hear Elton gasp as well.

"Will you...." Colby pauses before he looks to Elton with a smirk. "Will you marry me?" Colby asks. I nod my head vicariously to which Colby slides the fake diamond engagement ring onto my ring finger.

"WHAT?!?!?!?!" Elton, Dan and Phil shout at the same time.
