I have something very important to say. To my beautiful girlfriend Christina, I love you, with my whole entire heart. You are my everything, we have been through hell together the last three years but I loved every second of it, and I never ever want it to end."
He walked off the stage and up to Christina and I, I took a step back because I think I knew what was going to happen.
Cb " Christina Marie Harris, will you please marry me?"
He got down on his knee and Christina was literally crying her eyes out.
Ch " YES YES YES OF COURSE!"
He put the ring on her and picked her up and kissed her.
I was standing with the boys and Zach had his arm around me.
Everyone started clapping and cheering.
After Corbyn put her down I ran over to her.
Gb " let me see, let me see!"
She showed me her ring and we jumped up and down together. The boys patted Corbyn on the back. After the boys went to hug Christina and I squeezed Corbyn.
Gb " I'm so proud of you dad."
Cb " What did you just call me?"
Shoot.
Gb " nothing."
Cb " Nope I heard it."
Gb " no you didn't."
Cb " I think you did."
Gb " can we pretend I didn't?"
Cb " Nope"
Gb " whatever Corbs"
Cb " aw over already?"
Gb " yes dad."
Cb " woo hoo!"
I hugged him again and a little later we left again.
We got home and I hanged into comfy clothes and took my makeup off. I went upstairs to get a water and saw Jonah on the couch.
Gb " what you doing?"
Jm " no way I'm sleeping in the same room as Corbina on the night the got engaged."
We both cringed at the thought and I sat on the couch with him.
Jm " wanna watch a movie?"
Gb " sure J."
We watched a movie and fell asleep on the couch. My head was on his shoulder and his arm was around me.
*next morning*
I woke up and saw Jonah still asleep. I go to get up but can't, What the hell?
I look at my wrist and see I'm handcuffed to the couch. I shook Jonah and he woke up.
Jm " What?"
Gb " Look!"
I showed him my wrists and his eyes went big.
Daniel, Zach, and Jack walked in the room.
Gb " What the hell is going on here? I have to go to work!"
Ds " payback!"
Jonah started laughing and I punched him in the chest.
Zh " well we were going to let you out, just wanted to see your reaction."
Gb " ok you had your fun, now give me the keys."
Ja " sure thing."
Jack reached in his hoodie pocket and his hand went right through the bottom.
Ja " Uh oh."
Gb " Uh oh? What do you mean Uh oh?"
Ja " I must've dropped the keys."
Gb " I'm going to kill you."
I jumped up and went to grab him but couldn't reach him, and this couch was one of those couches that was built into the floor, so I was stuck.
Ja " I'll look for the keys!"
Gb " you better!"
I then saw Christina and Corbyn run down the stairs handcuffed to one another.
Ch " What the hell is going on here!"
Gb " these three idiots thought it was a good payback to handcuff us, and now Jack lost the keys and I'm gonna Kill him!"
Cb " well how did I get into this!"
Zh " sorry bro."
Gb " stop the chit chat and search for the damn keys!"
Everyone, except me of course, was looking everywhere and couldn't find them.
Ja " oh"
Gb " oh what?"
Ja " I did go to the skate park this morning."
Gb " IM GOING TO KILL YOU! I HAVE TO BE IN WORK IN LESS THEN A HOUR!"
Ja " I'll go there now."
Ch " yeah you will!"
Daniel, Jack, Zach, and Jonah went to the skatepark. I heard my phone ringing and told Corbina to go get it. They ran downstairs and came back up with it. It was my boss.
Boss" Gracie where are you? We need you earlier today!"
Oh shoot I forgot about that.
Gracie " you see, I don't know if I can make it."
Boss " why not!"
Gracie " I'm sorta handcuffed to a sofa."
Boss " I get it if you don't like your job, but don't make up stupid excuses, your fired!"
Gracie " wait no ple-"
She hung up.
Cb " What was that about?"
Gb " I just got fired."
Ch" omg What are you going to do?"
Gb " I don't know.... after I get out of these handcuffs the first thing I'll do is put Jack in his grave, and then I think I'll just go back to full time assistant for you guys."
Cb " I'm so sorry Gracie, you know Jack didn't mean it that way."
Gb " I know but I really thought I had a future there."
Ch " did you really want to play dress up everyday?"
Gb " no, I guess your right."
Ch " how bout I'll pay you to help plan my wedding?"
Gb " you don't have to pay me for that! I'll be with these five idiots 24/7 now so I'll have some free time to help you out."
We hugged but Corbyn's hand on my face. We laugh and let go. About twenty minutes go by and the boys walk back in with no keys.
Ds " no luck."
Gb " Well I have some not good news."
Zh " what's wrong?"
Gb " I-I got fired. For not showing up today."
Jack's face dropped.
Ja " I'm so sorry, this is all my fault."
Gb " it's alright Jack, being a princess wasn't really my thing anyways."
He chuckled and sat down and hugged me.
Ds " I'm happy everyone's ok but what are we going to do about those three?"
Gb " anyone got a bobby pin?"
Ch " I do!" 
She took it out of her hair and gave it to me. I put it in the lock and maneuvered it so it would unlock. It did and I took my wrist out.
Zh " woah! How did you learn to do that!"
Gb "Zach, I was an orphan for 16 years, I used to sneak out of that place every night."
Cb " Now Im going to have to get password locks on all these doors."
I laughed and undid Corbina's handcuffs.
Ch " thanks."
Gb " no problem."
Ds " So, when are you guys planning on getting married?"
Cb " January 7th"
Zh " Why that date?"
Ch " just stood out to us I guess."
Ja " So you have 3 months exactly."
Ch " Yeah....We have two months exactly!"
Cb " calm down, we will get everything done!"
G " let's start now."
Ch " how?"
G " get ready and meet me here in an hour, both of you."
I went and got myself ready, then made a checklist.

*hour later*
Corbina came down the stairs and all four of us ( including Zach ) jumped in the car. We were going to look at a location.
G " so where do you two want to get married?"
Cb and Ch " the beach."
Zh " well that wasn't a hard decision."
G " ok, I think I might know a place."
I gave Zach directions to an old private beach I knew of. Literally no one knew about it and it was beautiful. We pulled up to an old parking lot with a fence around it covered in weeds and vines.
Cb " this?"
G " you'll see."
We got out and I went to the part of the fence that I knew was the entrance to the beach.
I ripped all the vines and went through, it looked exactly the same.
Ch " woah, this is beautiful."
Cb " it's perfect!"
Zh " how'd you know about this?"
G " I used to sneak here every night from the orphanage, since I was nine years old....I wonder if my box is still here."
I walk over to wear I put it last, behind a big rock hidden by some palm trees. I open it to see all my lollipop wrappers I kept in it and smiled. Zach came behind me and put his hands around my waist.
Zh " find what you were lookin for?"
G " yeah, every night I took a lollipop with me to suck on and watch the waves crash."?
Ch " What are these?"
She pointed to all the tally marks on it.
G " everyday, since I turned nine, each tally mark represented a day that......no one loved me."
A tear almost came to my eye and they all came and hugged me.
G " that all doesn't matter now though."
Cb " I mean you do have the best uncles, dad, boyfriend, and best friend in the world who love you a whole lot."
I chuckled.
G " your right."
Ch " well this location is perfect, don't you think Corbyn?"
Cb " Definitely "
Zh " then we're all set, want to head home?"
Ch " Yeah"
They all started walking back, but I couldn't keep my eyes off the box.
Zh " babe, you coming?"
G " y-yeah"
Zh " I have an idea."
He took the box out of my hand and ran towards the water.
G " Zach what you doing?!"
He threw it far into the ocean and it went under a wave.
G " What was that for?"
Zh " you don't need those sad memories anymore, you have us now, stick with the happy memories instead."
I smiled and kissed him, we then went back to the car and went home.
We walked in and everyone was on the couch.
Jm " well there is all our love birds."
Ds " find a location."
Cb " Sure did."
Ja " great, how about some lunch?"
Zh " Chipotle!"
He ran out of the house and we all playfully rolled our eyes and followed him.
Zach's right, I have to forget about all those bad memories, and make great memories with my favorite people. I will stick as the five idiots assistant, and part time wedding planner.
