20-year-old Mary Camden was sitting on her old bed with Lucy in their old room. It was a beautiful spring day and the girls had gotten together to talk about Matt's recent marriage.
"I can't believe that he just went and got married!!" cried Lucy
"I know!! I sooo wanted to be their for him when he finally tied the knot, but I guess that he just didn't want us there."
"Well, aren't you and Ben getting pretty serious?"
"That depends on your definition of serious. I mean, yeah, things are going pretty fast, but I love him and he loves me. We were talking the other day about getting married."
"Oh my god!! I can't believe that you didn't tell me sooner!! Have you set a date for the wedding yet??"
"LUCY, chill!! Oh my god, I said that we were just talking about it!"
"LUCY? WOULD YOU COME DOWN HERE AND GET THE TWINS? YOUR MOTHER AND I ARE JUST ABOUT TO LEAVE!" cried their father, Reverend Eric Camden.
"Great, now I get to go be a pro bono (for free) babysitter. Oh, by the way, Robbie called here earlier and wanted to talk to you, you should call him back."
Oh my god, Mary thought to herself after Lucy left the room. I cant talk to Robbie Palmer, I know that I will just fall in love with him again.
As Mary was just picking up the phone to return Robbie's call, the phone shrilly rang and made Mary jump.
"Hello?"
"Hey, baby, it's me!"
"Hey, Ben! How are you doing? Are you ok in Buffalo with out me?"
"Yeah, I suppose, but I really miss you, sweetheart."
"I know, I miss you too, but you're coming back to Glen Oak to get me next week, right?"
"Well, it turns out that something came up here, so I don't think that I will be able to make it that week, but ill be there for sure the next."
"oh"
"But, honey, don't be sad, I think that I have something that will make it all better. Go outside to your front porch right now and you will find a surprise."
"ok, but I don't think that anything will be there, because I never heard the doorbell ring."
Mary trembled with anticipation as she walked down the stairs, the cordless phone glued to her ear.
"ok, now i'm by the door, should I open it?"
"Yeah, baby, open it and hopefully my surprise will have gotten there by now."
When Mary opened the huge front door, there was Ben, holding a huge bouquet of yellow roses, Mary's favorite. Before mary had a chance to react, Ben jumped in the door and swept mary off of her feet.
"oh my god!" mary said while showering Ben with sweet kisses, " I cant believe that you are here!!!"
"Well, I couldn't stand being away from you for so long, so I hopped on a plane, and here I am"
"Oh god, I didn't realize until now how much I really missed you! What a great surprise!"
"Well, that's not the only surprise."
"it's not?"
After Ben put mary down on the floor, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small black velvet box.
"Mary Camden, I've loved you from the moment I laid eyes on you. I want you to know that I will always love you, for the rest of my life. Mary, will you marry me?"
Mary sat stunned with tears in her eyes for a moment. Then in one quick movement, she threw herself at Ben and hugged him with all of her might.
"Ben, I love you too, I don't want to spend my life with anyone else but you. Yes, I will marry you."
At that moment Robbie walked in from the kitchen after work and stopped midstep when he spotted Mary and Ben, and the huge ring on Mary's left hand.
