Last Time...

"Umm. I like... Amber!" - Cyrus

"I have a crush on Jonah." - Iris

"...I'll drink a little less, okay?" - Jonah's Dad

"I have a new video game." - Marty

"Is it a shooter?" - Buffy

"You like shooters?" - Marty

"I love shooters!" - Buffy

We should totally hang out online and play together." - Marty

"By the way, when is Bowie going to propose?" - Bex

"You know?!" - Andi

"Yeah. I know that he's going to propose to marry me." - Bex

Andi's POV:
"You mean to tell me that you knew this entire time?!" I asked.

"No. Just found out yesterday."

"How did you even find out?"

She took another bite of food. "I was cleaning up the bedroom, and I found the ring inside of one of the jackets."

I rolled my eyes. "Ugh! I told to hide it somewhere more secure!" I looked back at Bex, this time, with a smile. "So, about Bowie. He's not ready to ask, but when he does, you're going to say yes, right?"

She shook her head. I frowned. "What? You're going to say no?"

Once again, she shook her head. "I really don't know. I'm finding it good that he isn't ready to ask the question, because... I don't know my answer yet."

"But you're Bex and Bowie. Together, you're Box! No, wait. I can do better. Bexie! Bowex?"

She stopped me. "Your point being?"

"You two are meant to be together. It's fate!"

"Your proof?"

I pointed my two thumbs towards me. "Isn't this proof enough?"

"It's not like I going to kick him out if I say no. You'll still have both your parents. There just won't be a ring on it." She said as she held up her hand.

We saw Bowie coming back. Bex quickly whispered, "Please don't tell him."

"Fine." I said, a bit annoyed.

Bowie sat down. "Whew! That line to the bathroom was long. So, what did I miss?"

I shrugged. "Bex is planning to start a new business as a makeup artist."

"Really? That's awesome! When are you doing this?"

"I don't know." She replied. "If it goes well, a couple of months."

"Cool. Are you going to do hair? I would love a family discount."

I smirked at Bex. "Oh, yes. Bowie and I would love the family discount."

Jonah's POV:
I was in the kitchen doing homework, when the door opened. I peeked around the corner and saw my dad. "Hey, Jonah."

"Hi, Dad. Where were you? It's almost 10:00."

"I was busy at the office. Stayed late tonight."

"Oh, okay." I said. He walked into his room. Yeah, I don't believe him one bit.

I went into my room and laid on the bed. My phone vibrated. A text from Cyrus. What would he want? It's like 10:00 at night.
