Luke came to the Boar's Nest to pick Christine up that night. He had planned a romantic evening just looking up at the stars at that park. He got a blanket out for the two of them to lay on and pulled Christine to him and held her, "This is so nice isn't it?"
"Uh huh," Christine responded not really paying attention.
"Hey what's wrong?" Luke said
""Oh sorry Luke, it's just that Bo really got to me today. I think he made it quite clear the friendship is over."
Luke held her and kissed her, "Don't worry about it, I'm sure he'll come around soon."
Christine nodded and closed her eyes, "I love you so much Luke."
"I love you too," he said pulling a blanket over them to keep warm.

It was Christine's birthday and Luke couldn't wait to spend the night celebrating with her. He had the evening all planned and had what he thought was the best birthday gift ever. When he got to her house, he was informed that she was in bed sick. Luke knew she hadn't been feeling well the past few days. He started jumping to conclusions as to why she was sick and he went up to see her. "I am so so sorry, I did this to you. I thought we were being careful, guess not too careful."
Christine laughed a little, "It's your fault I ran myself down working and caught the flu?"
"Well yea it's my fault I mean….wait did you say the flu?" Luke said confused.
Christine nodded, "Why what did you think it was?"
"Um…oh nothing…hey scoot over let me get next to you."
Christine moved over so Luke could get next to her, "Luke you alright, I don't wanna get you sick now." She laughed a little, "wait a minute Luke, you didn't think that I was pregnant did you?"
Luke looked at her a little embarrassed, "Well yea when your mother said you were in bed feeling sick that was the first thing that came to mind. I mean I knew you weren't feeling good past few days so I thought that may have been why. You sure you're not?"
"Well if I am, my doctor didn't do a good job checking me out. It's only the flue Luke, I'll be better in a few days." She smiled. "You upset?"
"Huh oh no no, I mean sure I'd love to have a kid and all but not just now," he smiled and kissed her.
"Luke I'm sorry. I know you had a whole thing planned out but I ruined it by getting sick."
"Who says we still can't have a nice evening in," Luke said getting off the bed.
"Where you going?"
"Nowhere, just wanted to get your gift," Luke said taking a small package out of his pocket and handed it to her. Christine opened it and saw a diamond ring, "Luke?" she said looking at him.
He nodded and smiled, "Yes it is what you're thinking. I can't imagine my life without you. Will you marry me?"
Christine threw her arms around Luke and kissed him "Yes Luke of course I will. I love you" she said kissing him.
