mike and i decided to go out to lunch together since we hadn't had some time to hang out in awhile.

we were both eating our food when mike stared down at my hand and then i realized.

he could see my engagement ring. lip and i weren't gonna announce it yet considering we knew fiona was going through a hard time.

"mel, what's that ring on your finger." mike asked me as i cleared my throat.

"uh, it's just a ring i bought myself." i lied as mike chuckled.

"you've always been a terrible liar, melanie." mike said as i rolled my eyes.

"oh shut it, micheal." i said as we both laughed.

"but seriously, what is it?" mike asked as i let out a breath.

"lip purposed last night and i said yes " i told him with a smile.

"oh, my god. how did it happen?" mike asked me with a bright smile.

"actually, it happened jim and pam style. we were walking around and he just stopped and got down on his knee." i explained.

"well, i'm happy for you guys." mike told me as he hugged me.

"thanks. just don't tell anyone yet, we don't wanna announce it since fiona is going through a lot." i told him as he nodded.

"i can't believe my little sister is getting married." mike said.

i was currently moving out of my apartment since fiona had to sell her building to a guy named max and he was selling it.

i knew i couldn't live at home forever, but for now i was going to be back at home with mike and emma.

after getting my stuff moved back into my old house, it was night and i was exhausted.

i heard my phone vibrate and i grabbed it from my back pocket and saw a text from lip.

lip❤️
do you wanna sleep over?

i smiled down at my phone before replying back with yes and getting into my car, driving over to his house.

i got out of my car and walked inside. i never knock since the gallaghers don't mind me being over.

i saw lip walk downstairs and he smiled once he saw me and he kissed my forehead.

"you look exhausted, babe." lip said as i let out a sigh.

"yeah, i've been moving my stuff all day." i replied.

"well, it's a good thing that i have a perfectly good spot on my bed waiting for you." lip said making me smile at him.
