Chapter Nine

Just as Marie promised, she made all the things that Joey told her he loved to eat. They sat around the table and Seto said grace, "Bless this food and all the good people around this table and bless Hank, Carl and Jimmy all for being able to see what life is really like and for them all wanting to come back to this world stronger and full of life. Amen."

Joey squeezed Seto's hand after grace and the look of love that was emanating from them fill the kitchen and everyone could feel it and they all smiled. The food was delicious and Joey was the first to compliment Marie on it. She had strawberry pie with lots of whipped cream for dessert and when they all were done there wasn't anything left. Tonight Mokie and Roland volunteered to help Marie with dishes and Seto took Joey's hand and lead him outside.

The night sky was full of stars and it was a very magical time. As they walked they had their arms around each other, and Seto walked till he was at the perfect spot and right there was a bench and he asked Joey to sit there and he stood looking down at Joey and then he knelt right there on one knee and he said "Joey Wheeler will you please marry me and be my life mate for all eternity?"

Joey sat there looking into Seto's blue eyes full of love and tears and he whispered "yes I will and I love you so very much." Seto then leaned over and started kissing Joey and they soon were in each others arms on the ground and this was witnessed by three peeping toms, Mokie, Marie and Roland who wanted to jump for joy and shout out YEAH!, but they couldn't just yet.

Seto stood up and helped Joey off the ground and they started walking back to the house and the three peeping toms scrambled to get inside and back into the kitchen before they were discovered, but it was to late because both Seto and Joey had heard them whispering and that's why they stopped before they might of done something that might have been to much for young eyes to see.

Mokie was drying the dishes as Marie was washing and Roland was cleaning off the table when they walked back into the kitchen.

"You're not finished yet?" Seto asked.

They all tried not looking guilty but their faces were giving them away and soon it was just to much and both Seto and Joey broke out into laughter and Seto said through his laughter "you all can stop because we know you were all there sneaking around to see what we were going to do. And as you all heard, I asked Joey to marry me and he said yes." That's when Roland, Marie and Mokie all started cheering and Mokie ran over to where Seto and Joey were standing and he threw his arms around them and he whispered "I always wanted another brother." Joey looked into Seto's eyes and he leaned down and kissed the top of Mokie's head.

The next morning Seto and Joey went to the jewelry shop and when Joey saw the rings he had tears in his eyes and he whispered "their just beautiful and I can't wait till we're married an I can wear this beautiful ring that you had created to show your love for me."

Seto took the rings and then they had to go home and figure out who they wanted to come to their Wedding. Joey asked "if they could stop at the Game Shop and they could tell Yami and Yugi and maybe the others will be there also."

When they got there indeed everyone was there and they all understood Joey's sorrow over his father's condition and they were extra excited over the news of their up and coming Wedding. As Yugi gave Joey a hug he whispered "if you need anything please don't hesitate to call and ask, we will do anything to help either you or Seto." Then they left and went home.
