RICKY'S POV:

I snuck into Casey's room early the following morning, taking his phone from his nightstand and leaving the room once again, quietly shutting his door behind me…

"What were you doing in Casey's room?" Brax's voice asked me, startling me

"Jesus!" I proclaimed "You scared me."

"Sorry," he replied, kissing me softly "but what were you doing in Casey's room?"

"Getting this…" I informed him, holding up his phone

"Is this all part of your plan to get Denny to go out with him?" he questioned

"Maybe." I replied as I made my way through to the kitchen and flicked the kettle on

"You're still not gonna fill me in on your plan?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at him

"Nope," I informed him "you'll just have to wait and see…"

CASEY'S POV:

"Denny, hi," I greeted her as I opened the front door to her that morning "what are you doing here?"

"You invited me over for breakfast…" she informed me

"I did?" I questioned, raising an eyebrow at her

"Yeah, look." she replied as she pulled her phone from her pocket, showing me the text "I'd" sent her

"I think there's been some kind of misunderstanding…" I informed her

"No, no misunderstanding." Ricky's voice proclaimed suddenly "Come on in, Denny."

"Ricky, what's going on?" I asked as I shut the door behind Denny and followed her into the kitchen

"Breakfast for you both is served." she informed us

Sitting in front of us on the table were pancakes, croissants and fresh fruit. Winking at me, she made her way past me and through to the bedroom…

"I don't know what's happening…" I admitted

"Neither do I, but I like it." Denny informed me

"You do?" I questioned

She nodded her head, smiling at me warmly…

"Then you'd best take a seat." I replied, pulling a chair out for her to sit down on

"Thank you." she stated as she sat down and I moved to sit opposite her

"I'm off to take the kids to school," Ricky's voice informed us as we began to help ourselves "don't be late yourselves. I'll see you later."

"I'll be back in a minute…" I admitted, hurrying through to the living room "Ricky?"

"Is something wrong?" she questioned

"No," I replied, pulling her in for a hug "thank you. I'm guessing Brax told you?"

She nodded her head and kissed my cheek… "Go and enjoy your breakfast. I'll see you tonight."

"You and Ricky are close?" Denny inquired as I made my way back into the kitchen

"She's been my Mum pretty much since I was born," I informed her "I mean you've met my Mum, you know what she's like…"

"Yeah," she replied "and I think it's lovely how in love she and Brax are after all this time."

"They're meant to be together…" I admitted "Everyone who meets them says that. I mean they've had their problems, but they've overcome them and have emerged the other side stronger."

"Do you think you and I could have what they have?" she inquired

"What?" I asked, covering my mouth with my hand as I choked on my juice

"I mean with other people…" she informed me "Do you think we could be as happy as them?"

"I'd like to think so, but I don't want it with anyone else, except you…" I admitted

"What?" she questioned

"You must know how much I care about you, Denny?" I inquired

"Yeah, but I thought that was just in a friendly way…" she admitted

"To start with it was, but it's not anymore. Why do you think Ricky's done all this?" I asked

"I thought she was just doing something nice for us so we could spend some time together…" she informed me "I can't believe I've been so blind!"

"So what do you say?" I inquired

"What do I say to what?" she questioned

"Would you like to go on a date with me sometime?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at her

"I'd love to." she informed me

Awe, Casey and Denny, and Ricky the matchmaker…
