"Yes, Melissa, I would love to have you home," Maggie said.

Victor walked into room with a bag of groceries. Maggie smiled at him, and continued her conversation,

"Victor would have a chance to win Dance, Dance Revolution on the Wii. Where are you planning on staying? Well, yes, Melanie still comes over here. You can stay here or Julie's. So, probably Julie's. O.k. see you then. Love you, too, sweetheart." Maggie hung the phone.

"The Hortons are descending," Victor commented.

"The Hortons want to make sure you don't hurt their beloved Maggie," Maggie said.

"But don't they know you're also my beloved?" Victor asked, kissing Maggie.

"Mmmm….remind me," Maggie said.

"I love you, I love you, I love you. Marry me," Victor kissed Maggie's face as the door opened.

Melanie gasped. Maggie and Victor looked up at the door.

"Did I just hear what I think I heard? Did Victor just propose?"

Victor and Maggie broke apart. Melanie looked at Maggie for an answer.

"Yes, Victor just proposed." Maggie started to unpack groceries.

"And?"

"And I need to put away groceries."

"She doesn't love me enough," Victor pouted. Maggie shot him a look.

"Well, you're early this month."

"So Victor proposes to you every month?" Melanie asked.

"Yeah, on the third Wednesday," Maggie shrugged.

"And you just refused every single one."

"She shatters my hopes and dreams every month," Victor said.

"Victor…" Maggie warned.

"Sorry. I need to check my email," Victor said, kissing Maggie on his way out.

"Victor proposes every month." Melanie said, amazed.

"Mel, drop it. I don't know if you and Phillip have in-jokes but this is one of ours. Victor knows my answer before he asks. I know he has our wedding bands and my engagement ring bought," Maggie said.

"So you're not getting married?"

Maggie sighed, frustrated. "I feel like I need to take out a t.v. ad. 'Maggie Horton and Victor Kiriakis are not getting married any time soon. Stop asking Maggie.' "

"I would feel better if you did that, Mom," Sarah said.

"Would you really? Because if that all it takes," Maggie teased. Sarah rolled her eyes.

Melanie shifted uncomfortablely. Maggie noticed this.

"Sarah, I would like to introduce Melanie. I know you met at Mickey's funeral but that day was hard on everyone. Mel, this is my youngest daughter, Sarah Margaret," Maggie smiled at her girls.

"Wow, you look like your mom," Melanie blurted out. Sarah and Maggie laughed.

"We heard that a lot," Sarah explained. She smiled at Melanie. "Does Mom get confused when you and Melissa are in the same room?"

"Oh, because of the Mel thing. She goes to full names or Lanie and Lissa. Once in a while she says Mel and we both answer."

"Speaking of Melissa, she's coming home. Apparently someone called her and said her mother was insane. Who would've done that?" Maggie asked, looking at Sarah.

"Reasonable conclusion when you're dating the Greek," Sarah retorted.

"The Greek?" Melanie asked.

"Victor," Maggie explained.

"Ah."

"Well, it's just as well that your sister's coming home. I want to go over some papers," Maggie said.

"Not the death papers again," Sarah groaned.

"Sorry, honey. It would only take a half-hour at the lawyers." Maggie kissed Sarah's forehead.

"We have to be the well-prepared children in case of your death, Mom," Sarah complained.

"Humor me."

"You have death papers? That's really morbid, Maggie," Melanie said.

"It makes sense for me to have a living will and my affairs in orders, with my medical conditions," Maggie explained.

"Oh, are you talking about the death papers, again?" Victor asked, re-entering the kitchen looking for juice.

"It's not uncommon for people my age to have these papers. Victor probably has them, Julie and Doug have them. It's not a big deal," Maggie said.

"Except we go over them once a year," Sarah said.

"Yes, and you know the reason. So humor me."

"Is Victor joining us?" Sarah asked. Victor choked on his juice.

"I don't know. Victor, would you like to discuss what happens in my untimely or timely death with me, my daughters and Julie and Doug?" Maggie asked cheerfully.

"Well, I know what I do would in that situation," Victor said. Maggie looked at him and rolled her eyes.

"Yes and you know my thoughts on that."

"You're being ridiculous."

"How is Mom being ridiculous?" Sarah asked.

Maggie looked at Victor, with a raised eyebrow. Victor backed down.

"We're having a minor disagreement, and we'll work it out," Maggie said. Victor smiled but was dreading the meeting.
