MARTHIE FOREVER!

Martin just stood there at the door fidgeting giving Annie the "does it show I'm extremely nervous" look, as he stepped into the hall he saw Ruthie Wow. He thought "You look amazing."

"Why thank you Mr Brewer you don't look to bad yourself" she smiled at him, he loved her smile it made him forget all his worries, he took her by the arm and escorted her out to the car, as soon as the door shut behind them a med frenzy of Camden's threw their robes to the floor and sat their impatiently until Martin and Ruthie had driven off.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martin walked over to the passenger's door and opened it for Ruthie before shutting it and getting into the driver's seat and fastening his seatbelt.

"Martin?"

"Err yeah?" You could hear the nervousness in his voice

"Where are you taking me tonight?"

"You're going to have to wait and see"

"Oh but Martin! I Hate surprises, I'm not impressed you know." She whined folding her arms and pouting at him

"Well you're just going to have to be not impressed for a little while longer"

He turned the Keys in the ignition and began to pull off the driveway.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The whole of the Camden clan and Mac watched through the window as they drove off, Mac was pacing around like an anxious parent awaiting their teenage child to walk through the door, after missing their curfew, Eric walked up to him

"Mac what's the matter?"

"Nervous"

"Why are you nervous it's not like you are proposing?!"

"I know but they are both my best friends and they are perfect together and I don't want it to go pear shaped!"

"I'm sure it won't, I know my daughter" Mac smiled weakly at Eric "Anyway its time to leave". Kevin, Lucy, Savannah, Simon and Mac got into Kevin's car, Matt, Sarah, their twins, Sam, David, Eric and Annie in Eric's car and Mary, Carlos, Ben, Charlie and their twins in Ben's car. One after the other they drove off up the street.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martin decided he would take the scenic route to their destination so that the Camden's could get their and hide so that Ruthie couldn't suspect a thing. They were now ten minutes into their journey and neither one of them had said anything since they drove off, finally Ruthie broke the silence

"You know what? We should really find Mac a girlfriend" They both laughed

"I think you're right, he's becoming a third member to our relationship"

"What's his type?"

"Anything with a pulse."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

None of the Camden's except Simon and Mac knew what Martin planned for the proposal, they knew he was going to pop the question and where and no one knew that it was Mac behind it all. As the Camden's stepped out of their cars and walked into the building they were gob smacked at the sight they saw,

FLASHBACK

"Okay Martin this is what you should do… remember when we both joined high school here in glenoake we shared that physics class with Ruthie?"

"Yes?"

"And the time we went to the planetarium and there was a power cut for like a minute and when the lights came on you were on the floor with Ruthie on top of you…?"

Martin interrupted "It's not what you think she walked into me and I lost my balance. That was the first time I met her actually..."

"Exactly! You came home rambling on about her how amazing her eyes were how hot she was, and trust me she was doing the same."

"What did you mean?"

"All the girls were gossiping for weeks on how lucky Ruthie was to fall on you!"

Martin blushed a little before carrying on "Ha-ha really?"

"Yep. Anyway… seeming as the planetarium is where you both first met why don't you propose there? You could have written in the stars "Will you marry me" which will come on when you want to ask her, a candle light dinner with her favourite and yours for that matter…"

"Spaghetti"

"Yeah, and in the rows of seats behind, which will be dark so she cant see, will be the whole of her family watching, romantic or what?"

"Mac you are a genius"

"Wow, I've never been called that before"

"And you're most likely never to hear it again."

"Hey!"…

END OF FLASHBACK

Mac lit the candles and placed the meals down before looking at his watch "Guys, Guys" he ushered everyone around him "They are going to be here in the next five minutes, I want all the kids and Kevin and Mary at the back just in case you need to make an exit. As you can see the exit is down the stairs so no one will notice. Eric Annie and Mr Brewer sit two rows in front and the rest of you in the row between." Just as he finished he heard a car pull up in the car park "Everyone in your places."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martin pulled up into the planetarium car park "Martin? are we where I think we are?"

"Depends where you think?"

"Planetarium"

"Maybe..." Ruthie just nodded her head in acknowledgement, confused why Martin would bring her here of all places, the she remembered the first time they met.

Ruthie stepped out of the car and began to shiver the cold evening air made her cheeks rosy, she wrapped her arms around her and followed martin's lead.

"Ruthie close your eyes" she tightly shut her eyes as Martin lead her to the front of the Planetarium, before realising his grip "You can open them now." Ruthie's jaw nearly hit the ground when she saw the view in front of her-

"Martin, it's amazing"

"Not as amazing as you" she blushed. They finished their meal, Martin had always be conscious of people watching him eat and he knew full well there was at least 15 people watching his every move, he began to get down on one knee-

"Martin you should really learn to tie your shoe laces better" she let out a laugh

"Err…that's not why I'm down here…"

"Did you drop your folk; do you want me to help look?"

"No don't stay there and no I didn't lose my fork" Ruthie was oblivious to it all

"So why are you down there?"

"Ruthie Camden..." he began to pull out a box from his pants, "remember the first time I met you, it was right here in this very room?"

"How could I forget I literally threw myself at you! I was so embarrassed" they both laughed.

"Since that moment I have been the luckiest guy in the world to have you in my life…"

"Aww Martin you are really going soft in your old age"

"Ruthie you really don't get this do you? When you walked- I mean fell into my life, I didn't know what hit me, I knew you were something special, Then we became friends and then best friends, then my girlfriend and now hopefully my wife."

"What!?" Ruthie now knew what was going on, just then 'will you marry me' came up in the stars

"I love you. I never thought I would be so lucky to find someone so young. I know we have had our doubts, our ups and downs, but one thing never changed- my love for you. When I think about my future I see you, nothing but you. You bring out the best in me Ruthie Camden, so would you do the honour and becoming my wife?"
