He snapped back into reality when he heard wildfire.
"Laura, the party" he said as he heads back towards the house.
"Junior there you are." says Laura as she walks up to Junior and takes his hand.
She noticed he walked in empty handed. "Where's the champagne?" she asked him.
"What champagne?" asked a confused Junior.
"The one you went to go get down in the cellar silly." replied a puzzled Laura.
Dani was now looking at Junior with a weird look on her face. "What is wrong with him?" she thought to herself. "Why was he acting nervous and not meeting her eyes when she looked at him? Hmmm she thought. "He was acting rather strange then before he left." She knew why Junior wanted her at the party tonight.
"Oh that, someone must have already drank it. It wasn't there anymore." replied a nervous Junior. His mind was still back at the barn where he ran into Kris.
Laura smiled and nodded her head. He smiled back and put his arm around her waist. His eyes wandered around the room to where his father and senator Nickels was. They both knew that tonight Junior was going to propose to Laura. They continued talking with other guests until Junior tapped his glass.
"This is it" thought both fathers. They just smiled at one another.
"Can I have everyone's attention please. I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out tonight for a little celebration in welcoming Senator Nickels and his daughter Laura." He turned to Laura. She smiled at him. "Laura from the first time I met you, I knew I was the luckiest guy. You are so special to me and these past 6months have been so wonderful. I hope we can have many more. Thank you for coming into my life." Everyone raised their glasses and cheered to it. He tapped her glass with his and smiled at her. "Well, everyone please enjoy and have a great time." said Junior.
Laura and Junior then embraced in a kiss.
Ken Davis and Senator Nickels looked over at Junior who now locked eyes with them. They were both very confused why Junior didn't propose to Laura right there and then. Junior just smiled and broke their stare and looked over at Dani who was looking at him in the same reaction. She just smiled and shrugged her shoulders while raising her glass to him. He gave her a nervous smile and looked away.
Senator Nickels gave Ken Sr. a "what was that all about look." Ken just smiled and shook his head while he continued talking to his guests.
