Alexis looks pained.

Alexis: Maybe this wasn't a good idea.

Alexis: Let what go? What were you two talking about?

While outside, Alex checks his cellphone and he realizes he has a voicemail...

"Hey...It's Micah. I only have a minute...Amanda and Carmella drained Alexis's battery on her camera...heh...

Look, I have a feeling...this might be a stressful night for you. I know how you can get...and we all know how Ashley can get. Just remember, brother...you don't have to do it on your own. Alexis chose you. You don't have to audition anymore. Smile Let her be your support...don't go all macho, and you'll be fine...besides...

...the cleaning crew is done and well...I'm sure the shower/bath has you two's name on it...

...thank God it doesn't have anything else of you two on it....anymore...Later!

Alex listens to the voicemail and sighs, but almost with a half-laugh.

Alex: Well we kicked off with the idea of me.... someday... asking you to marry me.

Alex sees the reaction he suspected he'd get.

Alex: Relax..... I said someday love... I wanted to reassure him that my intentions for you are honourable and that I don't see this as some fling.... that I fully intend on marrying you one day.... or at least ask.

Alexis still looks half in shock, but her mouth twitches into a smile.

Alexis: Really?

Alexis suddenly gets a little shy.

Alexis: Yeah, just, you know, stupid little stuff, like seeing how Edwards would look as my last name... stuff like that....

Alex pulls her into a hug.

Alex: Yeah... think about it Alexis Morgan Edwards.... Mrs. Alexis Morgan Edwards.... has a nice ring to it.

Alex grins.

Alex: The name wouldn't be the only thing with a nice ring either.... you'd have one too.

He pulls a chain from around his neck, there is a beautiful Victorian gold ring.

Alex: Remember this.... It's been in my family for 100 years. It's the ring my dad used to propose to my mum.

Alexis looks at the ring, then back at Alex.

Alexis: I don't think I'd be able to forget it, even if I did want to try.

Alex pauses momentarily.... is he really going to do this?

"Last time I waited for her it was the wrong thing to do."

Alex: Then I'd take you somewhere nice.... like a fancy restaurant.

He gets down on one knee and takes her hand.


Alex: Then I'd get down on one knee.... and I'd tell you how.....

One of the biggest regrets of my life was wasting time waiting to be with you... because the time that we've spent together has been the happiest I've ever been. I'd tell you how.... I've always been a little unsure about what the purpose of my life is.... but now.... I'm absolutely certain that the only thing I could ever want is to spend the rest of my life trying to make you happy every single day. Then I'd ask....

Alexis Morgan O' Ryan..... will you do me the extraordinary honour.... of being my wife?

Alexis stares at him.

Alexis: Are you asking me now, or just showing me how you'll do it?

Alex takes a deep breath, and looks Alexis is in the eyes assuredly.

Alex: Oh I'm definitely asking you now.

Her heart beating in her ears, Alexis stares at Alex, as the rest of the world seems to disappear.

This is happening... really happening... now?

It's not like you hadn't hoped for this... even on that date there was a part of you that wondered if that was it....


Alexis looks straight into Alex's eyes, and even though she's trying to stay completely straight faced, both the shine in her eyes and the slight smile playing on her lips give away the answer before she says a word.

Alexis: Yes. I will.

Meanwhile in the restaurant, a suddenly dejected feeling Ashley stares at his sprite, which has suddenly become the most bitter tasting drinking he has ever had

Waiter:"I...don't suppose you are all ready to order?"

Ashley:"Feck off."

The waiter stares at Ashley for a moment then walks away.
Ashley sighs, pushing the soda away from him


You realize that nobody on this planet will ever see you as anything but a drunk right? You'll never have the respect of anybody. Not your kids. Nobody. Because nobody respects a drunk washed up has-been. You've lost old man. You've lost everything. And there isn't a damn thing that you can do about it.

Ashley looks at the table, noticing the drink menu

Go ahead. Order something. All of them think you spiked your sprite while they were away anyways. That bastard was right, you spent your life in a drunken stupor. Nobody expects otherwise. Nobody believes other wise. Even if you spent the rest of your miserable life sober, you would still always be the drunken failure.

Waiter:"Are you alright sir? Would you like to order a drink?"

Ashley:"...."

Do it.

Waiter:"Sir?"

Do it!

Ashley:"I said feck off!!"

the place goes silent, all eyes towards Ashley and the waiter

Ashley:"I..."

he rises, not walking towards the exit but the bathroom

Alex doesn't react immediately, he's unable to process that she actually said yes. But eventually it sinks in. He smiles broadly and slides the ring onto Alexis' finger.

Alex: Look at that.... it fits perfectly.

He stands and kisses her deeply and hugs her tighter than he's ever hugged her before.


Alex: I love you.

There's a suddenly ruckus in the restaurant, loud enough for even Alex and Alexis to hear.
They hear a voice, one of the patrons who was enjoying a meal


Man:"Somebody call an ambulance!"
