Yes, I'm having Ken propose to Caroline on her birthday.

It was a month before Caroline and Brenda's birthday and Ken walked into Perry's office, shaking from how nervous he was. He was going to ask Perry, Della, Brenda, and Isaiah if he could marry Caroline.

"Ken, what's going on?" Della asked as they all gathered in Perry's office as Ken was visibly nervous.

"You all know how much I love Caroline, and how she loves me as well…" Ken started as Isaiah and Brenda looked to each other with a knowing smile as Isaiah, behind his back, slipped his sister a $5 bill as Ken continued,

"I'm asking for your blessing and permission to ask her to marry me." Della and Perry looked to each other as Perry got up and left his office with Della right behind him.

"We knew about Caroline when you were pregnant with the twins." Perry said after a few moments of silence as the pair let the news settle in. Their baby girl was in love with Ken, and they knew it.

"But we were much gentler with Isaiah when he said that he wanted to marry Dani. Why are you so afraid of what could happen? You know she's going to stay closer to us when she marries Ken." Perry nodded,

"I understand, I just want her to be happy." Della nodded with a bright smile,

"Knowing my headstrong girl. She will be." Perry nodded as they walked back into his office,

"We give you permission and our blessing to ask Caroline to marry you, and I hope Brenda and Isaiah have done the same?" Perry said as Isaiah and Brenda nodded gently,

"Yes, Dad." Ken sighed softly with a small smile,

"I plan on proposing on her birthday next month." Once Ken left,

"OK, spill you two. What happened behind your backs?" Della asked as Brenda and Isaiah looked at each other as they chortled,

"It's my fault, Mom." Isaiah began as Brenda nodded,

"He bet me $5 that Ken would have the conversation we just had about a month out from Caroline and I's birthday. I told him that I accepted his challenge but didn't add more money to the pot." Isaiah blushed,

"I love my sister very much and Ken's so good to her." Della smiled softly,

"I'm glad you two approve of this. Your Dad's still a little on the fence." Perry was listening to the conversation as he smiled. If Brenda and Isaiah are alright with Ken marrying Caroline, then he would be too.

The day of Caroline and Brenda's birthday,

"Caroline, would you like to get some air with me?" Ken asked as he noticed Caroline looking a little suffocated with all the attention she was receiving as she nodded,

"Sure." They walked on the beach, hand in hand talking gently as Ken looked to Caroline.

I'm about to make the best or worse move in my life. She's so beautiful, I don't understand why she let all those other boys walk all over her.

"Ken, is something wrong?" Caroline asked as Ken looked to her and took a deep breath as he got down on one knee as Caroline felt the tears come as she began to cry softly as Ken spoke,

"From the moment I met you, it was like an electric shock. I knew then, I'd fallen in love with you and that it was pretty hard. All that we've been through, only strengthened my love for you. Will you marry me?" Caroline was silently sobbing when she only nodded as her emotions overrode her ability to speak as Ken placed the ring on her left ring finger as they kissed softly.

Brenda, Isaiah, and Della were watching as they giggled happily running back in as they saw Ken and Caroline walk to the steps as the ring glimmered on Caroline's left ring finger.

Once everyone was told, there was an air of happiness. Caroline couldn't wipe the smile from her face as she felt her heart completely heal.
