A/N: I've never been inside Pizza Warehouse so I'm not sure what it looks like inside...don't judge me, okay? :( lol well enjoy reading.

Alexis' POV

It was finally Saturday. I showered and got dressed in my dark skinny jeans, my black high tops, a flowy cheetah print spaghetti strap, and a black leather jacket I zipper up halfway. "The day is finally here," I said. I walked downstairs and Blake was in his dark jeans, black high tops, and his favorite sweater with the letter B in the middle of it. I love that sweater on him. "How do you always know what to wear to make me smile?"

"I'm very observant," said Blake hugging me. "Come on. The guys are already at the warehouse."

"Setting up, I hope," I said as we got into my car. Blake drove us the to warehouse and it was decorated beautifully. "Guys, this is amazing."

"We thought you'd want it like this," said Jayk. "Our five favorite colors."

"I love it," I said. "This is perfect." We heard five honks. "The girls are here."

"Let's get this party started," said Drew. Fifty girls walked in as a group. "Wow."

"Hey guys," I said. "I know you came for Blaxis but we also got the rest of After Romeo with us." The girls clapped. "Thank you for not being loud." I smiled. "I recognize each and everyone of your beautiful faces."

"Questions?" asked Blake.

Hands shot up. "Belinda," I said.

"Are you and Blake really engaged?" asked Belinda.

"I see we like to get right to the point," I said. "This is lunch talk. So, let's have a seat at the huge round table and talk there." We all sat down and everyone ordered two slices of pizza that they wanted. When they brought out our pizza, we started eating and talking. "Before we answer Belinda's question, I just want one thing to be clear. Anything said about Blaxis cannot leave here. It cannot be posted on social media. Just to keep us safe and you safe from bullying and harassment. Deal?"

"Deal!" everybody agreed.

"Okay," I said. "Belinda, to answer your question." I looked at Blake. "Yes, we are happily engaged." Everyone awed. "But that's only between the two of us, the other four guys of After Romeo and the fifty shippers." Another hand shot up. "Jasmin."

"You do realize people are asking if they're being punk'd right?" asked Jasmin.

"We do realize that," said Blake. "But we aren't in control of what others think."

"But we make the best of our lives as we can right now," I said.

"After we eat, you can can just hang around and talk to us," said Drew. "You can take pictures with us."

"Group pictures will be taken first," I said. "And Jonnie will be taking the group pictures for us." After we ate, we took group pictures with the girls. Some girls took multiple group pictures because they had their own little group. After the last one I asked, "Any more group photos?" I looked around. "No? Okay." We just scattered. Blake and I just went and stood by the ball pit. "Well, I think today went better than planned."

"We can say that," said Blake. "I got a question."

"Shoot," I said.

"When are you going shopping for your dress?" asked Blake.

"I don't know," I said. "I don't even know when our wedding is."

"We're getting married Saturday, July 18, right after your twenty fourth birthday," said Blake. "Remember? You called the wedding planner and told them you'd like to schedule a meeting the weekend before to get set up." I looked at Blake confused. "Please tell me that you only forgot because you're stressed out about this whole situation."
