Chapter 24- Well I hope 'tears of joy' or this all just went downhill.....

"Tatum! Max! Mark! stop complaining" My mom scowled.

We were being dragged threw the mall while my mom, Gwen, and Lex shopped.

Why you ask?

Well I can't answer that, because I DON'T KNOW!

I do know one thing, though.

I HATE SHOPPING!

"Mom, can we just go home"? Mark asked.

"Ugh! Alright! Mark, Tatum, and Max go!" My mom finally caved.

We smirked and walked out of the mall.

*********************************

My mom was now home and so Lex was out with Taylor for something.

"Tatum"! I heard my mom call from downstairs.

I pulled out my ear-buds and shut my laptop and walked down to the kitchen.

I saw Eli, Mark, Gwen, Max, and my mom all is the kitchen.

I raised an eyebrow and hopped up and sat next to Gwen on the marble counter.

Eli look nervous.

He scratched the back of his neck "Well.....You see-".

"Eli, breath" My mom said.

He breathed and said "Well I love Lex, with all my heart and we've been dating for 3 years now and their has been no problems or break ups".

True.

Lex and Eli, never fight, never split up. They're the perfect couple.

But hey, that's love!

"I was asking for permission if....." He stopped and took a deep breath.

"I could ask Lex to Marry me"? He asked.

Our eyes all widened.

"Holy motherf-" I started but my mom yelled "Tatum Aurora"!

"Firetruck"! I finished.

"Of course Eli" my mom said with tears in her eyes and a smile and she hugged him.

Gwen squealed and Mark and Max nodded; cooly.

Eli looked at me with a worried expression; waiting for an answer.

I asked "What is One-eyed Willie from"?

Everyone gave me a confused look.

Eli raised an eyebrow "The Goonies".

I smiled "Ok you can marry her" I said and hopped off the counter and hugged him.

****************************
"Yep" I said and popped the 'p'.

Beth squealed "O! MY! GOD! They're so cute together!"

I chuckled.

"Well I'll see you in awhile"?

"Ya, your grandfather and his bands playing at the country club, again"?

"Ya" I said.

"Ok, well I got to get ready, bye"! She said and I hung up.

My grandfather's bands playing again at the country club.

Its basically the whole town coming.

My mom came in and said "Wear something nice, because we're going out to eat later at a restaurant. And that means wear a skirt or dress"!
