Disclaimer: I don't Hannah Montana or the Jonas Brothers! I do however own this plot and such characters as Josh and Ryan. I don't own Kevin's GF and Jackson's GF.

A/N: I wanted to thank you for all of the wonderful reviews for that story. Happy readings!

Ryan smiled at his sister and told everyone that he had an announcement to make. Everyone sat down and Lilly could see that her mom and Robby Ray were smiling like there was no tomorrow. 'What in the world is going on here?' she asked herself when she turned her head and noticed that the Jonas family was smiling as well. She looked at her big brother and noticed that he had taken the unfamiliar girl's hand and pulled her closer to him. "Everyone, this is Kadie Callaway. She's my fiancée!" he said as the group burst out in exclamations. Lilly just sat there in her seat like she had heard wrong. Her brother was getting married? She didn't even know the girl and now, she was going to marry her brother? That is not right at all! Lilly looked up when she felt someone kneeling in front of her. Then, she felt a hand slowly wiped the tears from her face. She saw her brother in her blurry vision. She jumped into his arms and just sobbed her heart out.

Ryan was doing everything he could to calm her down. He even looked at Joe for help but he didn't know how to help either. "Baby girl, please calm down. Shhhh," he tried soothing her. She finally was able to catch her breath and looked up at her brother. She saw the concern on everyone's faces – even Kadie's. She just buried her face back into her brother's chest and her hold on him tightened. "It's just a dream. It's just a dream," she kept repeating over. Kadie was the only that was able to hear her. She slowly put a hand on Lilly's shoulder and Lilly turned to face her. "Can I please talk to you outside?" Kadie asked her. She didn't feel like she had a choice, so Lilly nodded her head and followed the girl – no woman – towards the back porch. She lightly closed the patio door behind her. "I'm not taking your brother away from you if that's what you're worried about," Kadie said, slightly startling Lilly. She wasn't expecting the girl to say that. She was expecting more on the lines of 'I'm sorry. I know that your brother is your every thing but I'm going to take him away from you. I'll make sure you'll never see him again.' Or, she was expecting Kadie to make a fit and warn her that if she didn't stop acting like a brat, she would make her brother hate her. But, Lilly never expected to hear her say that she wasn't going to take Ryan away from her.

"I know that you two share a close bond. I'm happy to see that. I know exactly how you feel. I'm exactly like that with my family," Kadie continued on. "I really do love your brother. And, in time, I hope that you will accept me into the family. I know, right now, you must hate me because you think that I am trying to steal him away from your family, but I'm not. I just want him to be happy. And, I think you are a very lucky girl. A family like yours is hard to find nowadays. I just want to be a part of your family. And I hope that in time, you will accept me to be your sister-in-law." Kadie turned and put her hand on the door.

"Wait," Lilly sobbed out. Kadie turned back to look at the blond in front of her. "I'm sorry for acting this way. I just didn't want my brother to leave. Yes, he's every thing to me and my family. But, foremost, he is my first best friend. Even, Miley knows that and she is my other best friend." Lilly held up a hand when Kadie tried to interrupt. "I know that my brother loves you. I can see that from when he was looking at you when he announced the engagement. His eyes were on you the whole time, like no one in the world existed. I just don't want him to get hurt if something happened."

"I promise you Lilly - that nothing will happen to him or to us. I'm in this for the long haul," Kadie replied, trying to assure the girl. She really did love Ryan with all of her heart. "You know that the first time, I fell for your brother, was when he was talking about his relationship to you?" Lilly widen her eyes and looked like she was really in shock. Kadie smiled and nodded her head. "Yup, that was about a year ago. We were talking about our best memories as a kid and he mentioned the time, you and him were on the beach building sandcastles."

Lilly smiled. She remembered that day. It was her best memory too. That was the day that she learned that Ryan really did care for her. "That was the day that I got hurt by that one mean boy that lived down the street from us at the time. I had my highest tower on my castle done and that mean boy just came over and kicked it down. I cried for while when I looked up to see Ryan running back to me with a black eye and his shirt ruffled," Lilly continued for Kadie.

Kadie smiled and finished the story for her, "And, he told you when you took a look at him, that the other boy got it worse. And you looked over his shoulder to see the other boy limping back to his house with two black eyes."

"He really loves you, Lilly," Kadie said. "I'm glad to have met him."

"I'm sorry for being mad at you," Lilly apologized. "You're not like the other girls that he had dated. Which is a good thing, believe me," she told Kadie, smiling. Kadie wasn't prepared for what happened next. Lilly launched herself into Kadie's arms and hugged her tightly. "I'm glad that my brother someone good for him. Please, just don't hurt him."

"I won't," Kadie promised and returned the hug. They walked back inside and saw that Ryan was standing there being all nervous. Lilly just looked at Kadie and tried to pretend that she was really mad at the girl. She ran into the hallway and counted for five seconds and then she heard the footsteps coming from the person that she knew so well. She stepped out from behind the wall that she was hiding from with a big smile. She launched herself into his arms. Ryan wasn't expecting for his little sister to launch herself into his arms. "I'm happy for you, big brother," she said and kissed him on the cheek. He looked at his sister's retreating back and he couldn't figure out what had just happened. He saw his sister go up to Kadie and gave her a hug. He saw her whispering something in Kadie's ear and they both started laughing like crazy. He walked back in and saw everyone looking at the two girls like they had gone crazy. Kadie walked over to Ryan as soon as she saw him walk through the living room hall. She stood by his side and smiled when he put his arm around her. "You and baby girl, huh?" he leaned down to whisper in her ear. She just smiled at him and gave him a secretive smile. He looked over at his little sister now and saw that she was smiling widely with Joe's arm around her.

Joe looked up and caught Ryan's eye. They smiled at each other and gave each other the manly head nods. Ryan turned his attention back to Miley and saw her with Joe's little brother, Nick. He wondered when the girls were going to tell the boys the truth. He knew that Nick and his brother were going to be able to figure it out. He just wished the girls would tell them soon. He knew that something really bad might happen when the truth finally comes out. At least, he hopes that the media doesn't find out before the boys do.

"Can we take a walk for a moment?" Joe asked Lilly as he leaned down to give her another kiss on the cheek. She nodded her head and followed him outside. Lilly wanted to stay on the porch because it was warmer there but Joe wanted to keep on walking. She knew that her family's garden was huge. It was like another mansion could fit the lot if someone wanted to build another house on it. There was a pool house (when I say pool house, I mean an actual house) on the other side of the garden where some of the guests stay when they come for a visit. Lilly started shivering and Joe, being the gentleman that he is, took off his jacket and put it around her shoulders. "Thanks," she said as she felt the weight of it on her shoulders. "So, why did you want to stand out here in the freezing cold? And, when did it get so cold? This is California."

"Well, it is autumn, and the nights are longer," Joe replied, laughing a little. Lilly shook her head and laughed along with him. She didn't know what made his laugh so infectious, but it was. "So, I'm asking again, why are we out here?" she asked, looking at him. He just shook his head and they continued down the path towards the guest house. All of a sudden, Lilly looked away from Joe's face and gasped at the sight in front of her. This part of the garden was lighted up by strings of light that were lined the trees and the pathway. She looked back to Joe and noticed that he was starting to look very nervous. He kept clasping and unclasping his hands. "Joe?" she asked, placing both of her hands on top of his. "What's going on? Why are you acting like this, Danger?"

He looked into her eyes and he could feel the love radiating off of them. He took a deep breathe and moved his hands on top of hers. "Lillian Josephine Truscott," he said as he slowly got down on one knee. He had to hide his smile when he heard her gasp. He felt her starting to tremble and he knew that it wasn't from the cold weather. "I have loved you ever since I was five years old. I might not have known it then, but I do know it now. Life takes on its on path. I didn't know that I would have predicted this, even though I did tell your brother this, and you didn't even know." Lilly smiled at the memory, knowing that she was there to see it, but she never did tell Joe that little tidbit. "Lils, I love you with all my heart. I thought the day that my brothers and I got our record deal and the first day that our songs became number one on the charts were the best days of my life. But, tonight, now – here with you. This is the best day and night of my life. I promise to make you the happiest person in the world. Lilly, will you marry me and make me the happiest guy on earth?" He held his breath, not knowing what she was going to say. She stood there for what felt to him was the longest time in the world but it was only a matter of seconds. She smiled when she saw his face looking confused but in a sexy kind of way.

She leaned down and whispered the words that he was waiting for that whole entire day, "Yes, Joseph Adam Jonas, I will marry you." She threw her arms around him and said, "I love you so much." Joe wiped the tears that were falling down her face. "I love you too," he whispered as he leaned in to give her one of the best kisses in her life. He stood up with her in his arms and twirled her around. Lilly couldn't contain her laugher or happiness and was squealing at the top of her lungs. She couldn't believe that her dream was coming true. She was going to marry the man of her dreams. He placed the ring on her ring finger and she marveled in its sight. It was a 24 karat princess cut diamond. It was the perfect piece of jewelry that Lilly ever saw and she has seen a lot – even when she was Lola back in the day.

They stayed hugging and twirling around for a few more minutes. Joe felt Lilly shivered and he remember that they were outside in seventy degrees with a cold wind blowing in the air. He rubbed her shoulders and pulled her closer to him as they started walking back towards the house. "So, how did you make all of this happen?" Lilly asked him. He smiled and told her that he had elves help him. "Elves?" Lilly choked the words out. He just laughed. "Your family and my family helped me puts up the lights. I had it all planned out tonight and everything was to go smoothly. Ryan didn't think the news about his engagement would put a damper on this proposal. Did it, Lils?" Joe asked her as he held her even closer.

He felt her head shaking from how close they were walking together. "It did, but Kadie turned out to be something else. She wasn't like those other girls that Ryan used to date. She's the real one, Joey. She loves Ryan and he loves her. I'm so excited. I'm going to get another sister and I get you," she said smiling as widely as she could.

"You already got me, babe," Joe said as he leaned down to kiss her on top of her head. By this time, they had reached the back porch. They walked through the doors and everyone rushed towards them to hear the news.

Lilly laughed and showed them the ring that Joe had placed on her finger a few minutes ago. All of the women in the house got really excited for the blond. Lilly's arms were tried by the end of the night. She had gotten so many hugs that her arms were sore from wrapping them around so many different people multiple times. Joe was the last one to leave with his family as they walked towards their car. "I'll see you soon?" he asked as he leaned over to give her a kiss. She nodded her head and kissed him back as passionately as she could. "I'll be waiting," she said as he pulled away. "Please don't worry about Josh, okay?" he whispered back. He knew that they weren't going to hear the last of the guy because of what had happened to his mom. Joe didn't want to ruin the moment but he had to know that Lilly was going to be able to sleep at night. Lilly nodded her head and kissed him one more time before Nick grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the car. She waved as Miley came to stand next to her and waved too.
