Said Lee handing Noah the rings."Ok remember you tell Elle that you guys are going to the beach because the weather is nice and I'll meet you guys there."Said Noah. "Okay." Answered Lee. Im gonna do it at the beach not our pool, because I want it to be big so she knows how much she really means to me." Said Noah. "Yeah, you're right that sounds better." Said Lee. "Hey Rach can you come over so we can discuss something?" Asked Lee. "Uh yeah sure sounds important." Said Rachel. "Yeah it is, it's a pretty big deal." Said Lee. "Ok I'll be there in about thirty minutes." Replied Rachel. Rachel finally arrived. (Knock on door). "Hey baby,so what do you need? asked Rachel giving him a hug and a kiss. "We don't have time to discuss it." Said Lee. "Discuss what?" Asked Rachel. "I just need you to take Elle for a girl's day,and tell her it's just so you guys can bond because you want to get to know your boyfriend's best friend." "Okay, May I ask why?" Asked Rachel. "I'll explain everything later right now just distract Elle." Said Lee shutting the door behind her. Rachel headed to Elle's house and put the plan in motion. (Knock on door) "we're having a girls day." Said Rachel with excitement. Elle looked at her with suspicion. "No, seriously." Said Rachel throwing a pillow at her. "Get ready I've already scheduled an appointment at the spa originally for me and lee but I wanted to get to know you better so I decided why not." Said Rachel. "Well I don't know if me and Noah have plans today since it's Christmas. "Then call him and ask." Said Rachel. (Phone rings) "He didn't answer so I guess not." Said Elle. "You know what a girl's day is just what I need." Said Elle. The girls headed out the house. After awhile they finally arrived. "Hey don't stress it he's probably just out with his family and has plans later for just the two of you."Said Rachel. "Thanks Rach." Said Elle. "No problem." Said Rachel. "So why aren't you hanging out with Lee?"Asked Elle. "It's Christmas and I figured he was busy with Noah and the rest of his family." Said Rachel. "What about your family?" Asked Elle. Rachel became upset. "Sorry." Said Elle. "It's fine my dad left my mom for another woman and my mom died three years ago today she would've been forty three." Said Rachel. "Sorry Rach so how did she die?" Asked Elle. "Car accident." Replied Rachel. "My mom died due to her being ill." Said Elle almost in tears. "I'm sorry for your loss too." Said Rachel. "We should hang out more often." Said Elle. "Yeah we should." Said Rachel. Then they got in Rachel's car because their appointment was done. "Now we have an appointment to get our nails done." Said Rachel smiling. "Ooh sounds fun." Said Elle. Rachel and Elle sat in one of the chairs waiting for their turn to get their nails done. "Hey you two want your nails done?" Asked a manicurist. "Uh yeah actually." Answered Rachel. "Okay come sit in these chairs." Answered the manicurist. "What kind of nails do you want?" Asked the manicurist. "Uh I'll get a French tip." Answered Rachel.

"I'll get the box shaped nails." Said Rachel. The manicurists finished filing,cutting, and gluing their nails. "What color?" Asked the manicurist. "I want a clear, glitter, glossy look with snowflakes and on my ring fingers to be just glitter."Said Elle. "Good choice." Said Rachel. "And you?" Asked the other manicurist. "Candy cane stripes and on my middle finger I want a glossy nail with a Santa design." Replied Rachel. (Text alert) {you don't have to distract her no more}>Lee. Rachel read it. "So I guess we're done now." Said Rachel. "Well thanks for today." Said Elle. "No problem." Replied Rachel "Well I guess I should take you home." Said Rachel. "Yeah I suppose." Said Elle.

"Well sit down and Noah will explain it to you after he's done changing." Said Lee. Noah walked downstairs without his shirt buttoned. "Oh hey Rachel I didn't realize you we're here." Said Noah. Rachel looked up and looked at his abs. Then quickly looked away. Lee noticed it but decided not to say anything but tilt his head trying to tell him to go to his room. Noah listened went back upstairs to get ready. "Okay Lee tell Elle to dress nicely so you guys can go to a Christmas party." Shouted Noah from upstairs. "Okay I got this I'll call her but you guys have to be quiet or she'll know something's up." Shouted Lee so Noah could hear him from up the stairs. "Hey, Elle." Said Lee. "Hey bro." Said Elle and there was a lot of chatter in the background. "Where are you?" Asked Lee. "I'm at a rager." Said Elle. "Well get home and get ready so I can pick you up for a party we're having at Rachel's." Said Lee. "Is Noah going?" Asked Elle. "Yeah I suppose." Said Lee. "Then I'm in." Said Elle. "Yeah but first Noah ran to the store so he'll be a bit late." Said Lee. "Okay." Replied Elle. Lee headed out with Rachel to go pick up Elle. A few minutes later. (Knocks on door) "We're here." Said lee and Rachel at the door. Elle opened the door and was wearing s gold sparkly dress. "Wow I didn't mean this dressed up." Said lee. "Ah it's not that fancy, besides I wore this sense the rager." Said Elle. "Not fancy?" Asked Rachel. "That's drop dead gorgeous. Said Rachel examining her dress. "Aww thanks you look pretty beautiful yourself." Said Elle. "Since when are you two awfully close?" Asked Lee "Is that a bad thing." Asked Elle. "Definitely gonna turn heads especially Noah's." Teases Lee. "Well are we going to go or are we gonna keep discussing my dress?"Asked Elle. "Ok." "Ok." We're leaving now." Said Lee. "Good." Replied Elle. "Sorry Rach but I call shotgun." Shouted Elle skipping to the car. Elle got in the passenger seat then Rachel and Lee got in the car and drove away. Thirty five minutes later they arrived at the party which was at the beach or at least that's what they told her. "Let's get funky." Shouted Lee. "Never say that again." Laughed Elle. "Yeah seriously never." Replied Rachel. "Where is everyone?" Asked Elle. "Why are they're rose petals everywhere and balloons Asked Elle. Noah pulled up on a new motorcycle. "Oh my gosh you got a new bike? Squealed Elle. Noah got down on one knee. "Elle will you be my Cinderella and I'll be your Prince Charming?" Asked Noah. Elle gasped in excitement and covered her mouth. "What I mean is will you marry me?" Said Noah. "Oh my gosh. Yes. Yes. Of course I will. Said Elle with excitement, stood on her tippy toes and kissed Noah. Oh by the way that's your new motorcycle." Said Noah handing her the keys. "Don't gotta tell me twice." Said Elle hopping in the bike. "Be careful."shouted Noah. "Oh you're coming too." Said Elle. Noah hopped on the bike with Elle. They went for a ride in the city then they went back to the beach and took a long stroll on the beach. Noah grabbed Elle's hand and kissed her lips and picked her up. Then Elle asked "So who all knew?" Well obviously Rachel, Lee, and of course your dad so I could ask for his blessing." Said Noah. "That's all?" Asked Elle. "Oh and my mom cause she wanted to know if I was doing anything for Christmas." Said Noah. "Oh true." Said Elle. Then Noah and Elle sat on the sand and put their toes in the water. Elle leaned her head on Noah shoulder and put her feet on top of Noah's while holding his hand. Then Elle splashed Noah with water using her toes. "Oh really? You wanna go? Asked Noah. Then Elle ran away from him laughing. "You're bit faster than me you know?" Asked Noah laughing. "I know which makes it funnier." Said Elle. Then Noah grabbed her from behind and picked her up by her waist. "Gotcha." Whispered Noah in her ear. "I knew you would." Replied Elle turning her head and kissed him on his lips. "So I guess you're my fiancé now." Said Elle. "Yep." Replied Noah. "Merry Christmas babe." Said Noah. "Happy holidays." Said Elle smiling. "Oh you look beautiful by the way." Said Noah. "Aww thanks." Replied Elle. "No problem you make me feel whole and you mean everything to me." Said Noah putting her down and holding her hands as she looked at him. "You do too and I would hate to lose you or for it to feel like I am." Said Elle.
