Ethan woke up the next morning to the sound of Kristina moaning and stirring in her sleep, he rubbed her hair and said "it's ok Love, you are fine, I am here, nobody is going to hurt you" He laid there a little longer with Kristina curled up beside him just watching her. She was so beautiful he thought to himself as he stroked her hair. Kristina opened her eyes and looked up at him sleepily "good morning beautiful" he said to her as he leaned over and kissed her "good morning back" she replied as she rubbed her hand on his bare chest. "Your phone was ringing a little bit ago, but I didn't want to wake you, so you might want to check it" he said to her. Kristina contemplated getting up out of bed, she was so comfortable curled up beside of Ethan, but she knew she had too, so she kissed his chest and got out of bed to check her phone. "oh Maxie texted me, she is just going to come here to pick me up for my fitting" Kristina stated "fitting?" Ethan questioned "yeah I didn't get to tell you last night since we were um kinda busy" she said as she came back over and sat on the bed "Maxie found me the perfect wedding dress, it is so beautiful, wait till you see it! So she set up a fitting for me this morning" "really, that was fast, a dress already" Ethan said and Kristina's face turned white "what, your not having second thoughts already are you? well I guess it would be understandable, you are Luke's son and we did move kinda fast" her heart skipping a beat. Ethan grabbed her hand "no Love, no second thoughts, don't you ever even think that" he said as he kissed her hand and put it on his chest. Kristina's face lit back up with a huge smile "don't scare me like that Ethan Lovett" she said as she threw a pillow at him. He grabbed her and started tickling her "stop Ethan, come on stop" she yelled while laughing hysterically, then he put his lips to her neck and started kissing her, he could not get enough of her. "Ethan" Kristina said breathlessly "I need to get ready, Maxie will be here soon" so he let her go and watched her walk to the bathroom to get ready. "what are you going to be doing today?" she yelled from the bathroom. "Most likely just hanging around here, maybe I will go visit Luke or something" he replied back. Ethan's phone started ringing, so he grabbed it and saw it was Lulu "well hello there my favorite sister" he said "Hello back, Dante and I were wondering if you and Kristina had any plans for tonight? If you do cancel them because we want to take you out to dinner" Lulu said to him kinda demanding "Kristina? Dante and Lulu want to take us out to dinner tonight, is that cool with you?" he yelled to Kristina "of course, just find out what time" she answered back "she said it was cool with her, so what time do you want us to meet?" he said to Lulu "meet us at the Haunted Star at 7pm, we will go from there, see you then" she said "ok, see you later" and they hung up. Kristina came out of the bathroom just as there was a knock on the door. "Coming" she yelled. When she opened the door she found Maxie and Dim "Hey there mate" Ethan said when he saw him "I figured I would just hang out with you today since our ladies will be spending the day together" "sounds good to me" he said back. Kristina went over to Ethan, hugged him and whispered in his ear "don't get into to much trouble today without me" "don't worry love" he said back and kissed her.

The day went by in a whirl for Kristina, the dress was positively beautiful. She was going to need several fittings but the seamstress was amazing and Maxie was a tremendous help. When Maxie dropped Kristina off, she ran up to the apartment and found Ethan asleep on the couch. She sat beside him and kissed his cheek "did you have fun today?" he asked her as he rubbed his eyes "it was magical" she said back "now, we have to get ready to go meet Lulu and Dante, I have to find something to wear" she said as she got up and tried to pull him off of the couch. She headed to the closet because she had seen a few dresses that belonged to Sam still in there and one she thought would be perfect for tonight since Ethan had never seen it. She put the dress on and curled her hair. When she stepped out of the room she saw Ethan in a white button down shirt and black jeans. A flush of heat came across her cheeks as she stared at him. He turned around to look at her and his jaw dropped "Kristina you look beautiful" he said. She had picked out this strapless black dress that came to above her knees and was form fitting, it was simple but affective she thought to herself. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her "you sure you want to go out" and he kissed her neck "we could stay here and find ways to entertain ourselves" his breath warm on her neck. She got a little weak in the knees but responded "no, we promised so we are going to go meet them, we can entertain ourselves later" she said as she kissed his cheek and broke free of him. About 20 minutes later they headed into the Haunted Star. "that is weird" Ethan said to her "it looks like nobody is here, none of the lights are on" but as soon as he said that the lights flashed on and they heard "Surprise! Happy Engagement" Kristina blinked and looked around, there was all of their friends and family. She could not believe that even Luke had showed up. She felt tears welling up in her eyes "Oh my goodness, thank you all" she started "this is crazy" Ethan replied back as Johnny came up and shook his hand "when did you decide to throw this?" he asked him with his eyebrow raised "oh this was not my doing, it was theirs" as he pointed to Lulu, Sam and Molly. Molly came running up to them and gave them both a hug "I am so happy for you both" she said "thanks sis" Ethan replied back to her and Molly got this huge smile on her face. "Ok, ok, you two come sit over here" Lulu said as she escorted them over to their table. Kristina looked around and could not believe all of the people that came out for them. A little while later the music was blaring and they were all having a great time. Kristina and Ethan were so pre-occupied that they did not notice Johnny go up to the stage. The music was stopped and Johnny started talking "hello ladies and gentleman, we here at the haunted star would like to welcome you to the engagement party of the love birds of Port Charles and abroud...the con man Ethan Lovett and the mob princess Kristina Davis. Ethan and Kristina just looked at eachother and laughed. Johnny continued "at this time, I would like to bring up a few guys from the audience, Michael, Patrick, Dante and Dim can you please join me up here. All of them got up and walked to the stage. Ethan looked at Kristina, something was going on but they were not sure what it was. Lulu had sat down beside of her with a wad of cash in her hand. The guys all lined up beside eachother on the stage, it went Johnny, Michael, Patrick and Dim. Johnny looked at them and said "I think we need one more guy for this, Ethan come up here" he said with a smile "oh no, you guys are just fine" Ethan said "go on Ethan, there is a $20 in it for you" Lulu said to him "what do you have planned" he asked her "just go up there" she said back. He looked at Kristina and she had this huge smile on her face "do it baby" she said and kissed him "Awwwhhh" Johnny said "now get up here Lovett!" So Ethan got up and walked to the stage. Johnny made him stand at the other end of the line beside of Dim "just follow us" Johnny said. All the guys had their backs to the audience and then the music started and "I'm Sexy and I Know It" started blarring out of the speakers. Kristina could see Ethan start to laugh and shake his head. Lulu handed her some ones, along with Robin, Maxie, Carly and Starr. Johnny started off turning to his side and flexing his right arm, so one by one the guys followed till Ethan, he laughed some more and followed along, flexing his muscles as well. Kristina let out a loud whistle and started laughing. The dancing was crazy, all of them shaking their hips, flexing their muscles and wiggling their butts. Kristina could not contain her laughter, it was the greatest thing she had ever seen. She was there waving her dollars along with all the other ladies. Robin yelled out "take it off" and the guys all took their shirts off. "WOOHOO" Maxie and Carly both yelled. Once the song had ended all of them walked up to the stage and put the money in their boyfriend/fiance/husbands pockets. Ethan gave Kristina a sly smile when she put the money in his, reached down and kissed her. The room broke out into applause. Both Kristina and Ethan started laughing. When she sat back down she said "I hope somebody got that on film" "oh I did" she heard Molly say with laughter "awesome you better send that to me" she said back with a smile as she grabbed Ethan's hand "I would like to watch that over and over" "oh your so funny" he said back a little out of breath...
