-1Chapter 2- the reunion part 1
Axel Thurston was doing what he had been doing for the past countless years- working on LFO's. Except one thing was different now- he had three great grandchildren to watch over now. Holland and the Gekko state had dropped them off after the second summer of love so that they could find Eureka and Renton. They didn't want the kids on the ship in case anything dangerous happened since they didn't have their parents around and would hate to see them get harmed in any way.. Axel understood this but to say that he was surprised that Renton and Eureka adopted them would've been an understatement. He was downright shocked at the development. He was even more so when Holland gave him the new family register showing and naming Renton and Eureka as their parents.
The Thurston family had grown quiet unexpectedly and surprisingly for him, but in the end Axel was the proudest great grandfather their ever was. You could say he couldn't have been happier. Maurice, Maeter, and Linck were his world now and nothing was going to change that, for he promised Holland that he would watch over them until Renton and Eureka either returned or were found.
That morning the kids were sitting at the dining room table eating their breakfast when Axel said "You kids had better hurry up and finish or else you'll be late for school!"
"Ok grandpa we will!!" said the kids cheerfully. The enthusiasm of the kids put a smile on his face. But before Axel knew it, the kids had finished their breakfast and were heading out the door.
"Bye grandpa!!" yelled the kids as they hurried off. "Take care kids. Behave yourselves and I'll see you this afternoon!! Yelled Axel.
"Ok grandpa!!" yelled the kids. As Axel watched them walk away, he smiled to himself and quietly said "They become more like you everyday Renton." The thought almost brought a tear to his face until he snapped out of it and said "Well then I had better get to work myself. The bills don't pay themselves!!" and he headed on his way.
Axel usually never let the kids near the garage. He had told them that when they were a little bit older he would let them come to work with him sometimes and that they could come and go as they pleased. The kids didn't mind that rule at all though, for they usually had something to do anyways, which was always homework and then playing afterwards, so it worked out well for all of them. Axel would always quit working right before the kids got out of school so that he could be home when they got there, and when they got home they would always greet him with a big hug. Besides that, Axel didn't want them to see the project he was working on.
It was around dinner time and Axel was busy cooking up a storm in the kitchen. He enjoyed cooking for the children. It kept them happily fed and it always put a smile on his face.
" Hey grandpa look what I drew- a picture of us!!" Maeter said happily.
"Very nice Maeter!! Lets hang it on the fridge so that everyone can see it!! Said Axel.
"Ok!!" said Maeter cheerfully.
"Hey grandpa what's for dinner tonight? I'm hungry." said Maurice. "Me too!" yelled Linck.
"We're having meatloaf tonight. "It's in the oven and it should be ready shortly."
"Ok." said the kids simultaneously.
"And after dinner please make sure your homework is done and that your rooms are clean before you go to bed tonight." said Axel.
"We will." the kids replied.
A small confident smile came to Axels face, knowing how proud he was of those kids, especially after all that they had been through together. Still, a worried look came to his face somewhat and he quietly said to himself "Hurry back Renton and Eureka- your kids miss both of you deeply."
After a day and a half of walking through the forest, Renton and Eureka had finally made it to the outskirts of Bellforest. Eureka sat down next to a large tree to finally rest her feet after all the walking they had done.
"Eureka, wait here at the edge of the forest. I'm going to go into town to get the supplies we need to get us through the city safely."
"Ok Renton." Eureka said softly. "Hurry back."
"I will." he said and with a soft kiss to her cheek, he was off to get the things they needed. Eureka blushed slightly as she yelled "I love you Renton!!" "I love you too Eureka!!" yelled Renton as he ran towards his home town.
When Renton got into the city, he had to move around very carefully as not to be noticed. The first stop he made was at a small clothing store to get things to disguise themselves and get a few other personal things that they needed. While there he also got a small backpack for Eureka to hide her wings in so they wouldn't be noticed. The second stop that he made was to a small grocery store that he had never seen before. "Hmm, must be new." he said to himself. After getting them some things to eat since they hadn't eaten in a bit, Renton got a big, mischievous smile on his face and headed to a small Jewelry store that was right next door. It was there that he picked out a gorgeous yet elegant engagement ring for Eureka. But he wasn't going to give it to her just yet, because he wanted to wait for just the right moment before he gave it to her.
When Renton got back to the edge of the forest with the supplies, he noticed that Eureka had fallen asleep next to the large tree. He slowly walked up to her and gently shook her awake.
"I'm back" he said quietly, then giving her a soft kiss on her lips.
"I'm glad" she said softly with a warm smile on her face.
"I got all the supplies we need to make it through town safely. I also got some new clothes for us, since I figured we would need them." Eureka nodded gently and said "Will we be back home tomorrow then?"
"Yeah we will." he said gently. "Good." she replied quietly as he sat down next to her. Slowly she rested her head on his lap and fell into a deep sleep knowing that she was safe and secure by his side. Slowly Renton gently laid his hand on her shoulder, leaned his head back on the tree and finally, with a smile on his face, went into a deep sleep himself.
The next morning when Renton woke up it was near noon. The sun was shining brightly, the temperature was warm and there was a cool, comfortable breeze blowing. To say the least it was the perfect summer day. He looked down to see Eureka still sleeping soundly on his lap. Gently he brushed her face with his hand and said "Wake up Eureka, it's a beautiful day out today."
With a slight groan she woke up, gave Renton a gentle look and said "Good morning."
"Good morning Eureka." said Renton and gave Eureka a small gentle kiss on the lips. "How are you feeling today?"
" Just fine thank you." she said softly.
"Theirs some sandwiches in the bag for us to eat before we get going if you're hungry." said Renton. Eureka nodded gently and grabbed a couple of the sandwiches out of the bag for herself and a couple for Renton. After they were done eating, Renton said "The clothes for us are in that bag over there. Let's get changed into them before we go. You can change over there while I get changed over here."
"Ok" she replied.
After the two had got done changing and packed their things, Eureka, with the help of Renton, slipped on the backpack that he had gotten her. The night before he had cut slits into it so that her wings would fit comfortably. Once they were done, Renton asked "Are you ready?" Eureka nodded yes and the two of them set out on the final leg of their journey home.
It was dinner time once again at the Thurston residence and Axel and the kids were sitting at the table having pizza for supper. He had a long day at work and didn't feel like cooking supper that night, so he ordered one in for them. Axel didn't mind though, he was at least enjoying talking with the kids at the table. It was the one of the only ways that he could keep track of how the kids were doing since their parents were still missing.
"So how was school today kids?" asked Axel
"Fun!!" yelled Linck
"It was ok." said Maeter
"Yeah same here." said Maurice
"And how was school fun today Linck?" asked Axel.
"Well, we played lots of games in class today!!" he said enthusiastically
"Oh really?" said Axel "And did you learn anything from these games today?"
"Oh yeah!" said Linck "We learned spelling, math, our abc's and a whole bunch of other things!"
"Well, that's good to hear." said Axel. "Anything else new with you two kids at all lately?"
"No not really." said Maurice. "It was just another usual day for me."
"Me too." Said Maeter.
"I see." said Axel. "And did all of you get your homework done tonight?"
"Yes grandpa." said the kids simultaneously.
"Good, lets keep it that way ok? I don't want to have to tell Holland and Talho that your not doing what you're supposed to" said Axel
"We will." said the kids cheerfully.
It was at that same time that Renton and Eureka had finally made it to Axels doorstep after carefully getting through town and not being noticed.
"Well, here we are." said Renton kind of nervously.
"Yeah." said Eureka. "I wonder what kind of reaction that your grandpa will have."
"I don't know." said Renton. "I'm almost too scared to know, but lets find out anyways shall we?"
"Ok." said Eureka and with a nervous sigh from both of them, Renton knocked on the door.
"Who would be knocking on the door at this time of night?" said Axel grumpily. He and the children had been sitting in the living room watching television when someone started knocking on the door. He got up from the sofa, walked over to the door, opened it and said "Yeah, what do you want?"
"Hi grandpa it's me, Renton." Axel stood there in the doorway frozen. The look on his face looked like he had just saw a ghost. At that very moment, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Grandpa, who's at the door?" asked the children as they all came running to the door.
"Children?" said Eureka. She just stood there with her eyes wide open and almost in shock, for she couldn't believe that her kids were actually there in front of her.
"Hi kids." said Renton softly.
"MAMA, PAPA!!" yelled the kids with much enthusiasm. They couldn't believe that their parents were finally standing there in front of them after a year of not seeing them. Eureka fell to her knees and took her kids in a huge embrace of laughs and happy tears. She didn't know that her children would be there with him. Renton stood there and watched them finally knowing that their family was actually, finally complete. That thought alone was more than enough to bring a warm smile to his face. He then turned to look at his grandpa who was still standing there frozen. "Grandpa, are you ok?" asked Renton..
Axel looked down at his grandson and said "Where did you two come from? We all thought you were dead!"
"Well," said Renton "we woke up in the middle of the forest about two days ago which I guess is where we landed. It took us about the same time to get here, and what do you mean you thought we were dead?"
"Renton," said Axel "Don't you two know how long you two have been missing?"
"No we don't." said Renton
"It's been a year since we lost you two Renton." said Axel. Both Renton and Eureka's eyes went wide, for they couldn't believe what they had just heard.
After the short reunion, the family had went inside and Axel explained everything to them. Everything that had happened, where everyone was, how the Gekkostate had been looking for them and how the kids got into his care were all told to them in complete detail. After Renton and Eureka were told of the situation, they breathed a sigh of relief and felt a lot calmer knowing that everything was ok, even after missing a year of their and their children's lives. Eureka was sitting on the floor playing and talking with the kids when Renton asked "Is the Gekko State even still active?"
"Yeah they are." said Axel. "They're still out there fighting rebels who still believe in Dewey's plans to destroy all scab coral and coralian life forms. They usually stop in and see the kids whenever they're in the area. The last I heard though they were halfway around the world somewhere."
"I see." said Renton. "Is there a chance that we can try to contact them sometime?"
"I'll see what I can do." said Axel. "We keep in contact on an encoded frequency that only I and the Gekko State can use. Hopefully they'll be in range sometime and I'll give them the news."
"Thanks grandpa" said Renton.
"Until then you two are more than welcome to stay here. When Holland and the Gekko dropped off the kids , they also dropped off you and Eureka's things. It's all upstairs in the spare room we that we had set up for you guys in case you ever returned."
"Thank you Mr. Thurston." said Eureka.
"Call me Axel dear, for you're part of the family now." he said with a smile.
Eureka blushed a little and with a warm smile she said "Thank you Axel."
Axel nodded gently and said "Well it's getting late and we had all better get to bed. Maurice, Maeter, Linck, why don't you show your parents to their room."
"Ok!" said the kids and with a gentle tug on his mom and dads arms from Maurice, they took them upstairs to their room, which sat right next door to the kid's room.
When Renton and Eureka walked into their room, they were surprised at how nicely Axel and the kids had set it up for them. In the middle of the room was a large queen size bed with blue comforters and pillows for them to sleep on. On the right hand side of the room were two dressers, one of which they had determined was Renton's and the other Eureka's judging by the contents that were stored inside them. On the other side of the room were two large scenic ocean pictures which gave the room a calm, soothing, and yet relaxing feeling. There was also a large window above the bed with white elegant curtains that had let the light of the moon shine in very serenely, and for a brief moment, the young couple knew that they had made it home safely, which was the most wonderful feeling in the world.
The reunion part 2
Several weeks had gone by and there was still no word from the Gekkostate. Renton and Eureka didn't seem to mind though, they enjoyed their time together as a family. Renton worked at the garage with his grandfather, though he was sworn to secrecy by Axel about what they were working on. He also had to stay hidden when customers came around the shop so he wouldn't be noticed. Although he thought it was a hassle hiding all the time, he knew it was for his and Eureka's safety. While they were working one day, Renton went up to Axel and asked him nervously "Hey grandpa, can we talk for a minute?"
"Sure Renton, what's the matter?"
"Nothing." replied Renton. "I'm just fine, it's something about Eureka."
"Is there something wrong with her?"
"No she's fine grandpa." said Renton "Do you remember when you said that she was part of the family the night we returned home?"
"Yeah why?"
"Well, I wanted to make it official after all that we have been through together in the last year or so." said Renton. After he said that he pulled a little gray box out of his pocket and opened it to reveal the ring inside. "and two, I wanted to get your opinion on the whole thing."
Axel stood there in shock at what Renton had said. After a minute though, a happy look came to his face. "Well," said Axel, "I know you two are really young yet being only 16 at the moment, but if you wish, its fine with me. You have a family to look over now and I have a weird feeling that you're doing the right thing for her and the children."
Renton stood there with a becalmed look on his face and said "Thank you grandpa, that's all I needed to hear." and with that he put the ring back in his pocket and went back to work.
Before he got too far, Axel asked "When do you plan on asking her?" Renton stopped in his tracks, turned around and said "When we have the rest of our family back with us." Axel then nodded in agreement knowing what he was talking about.
As for Eureka, she spent most of her time at home doing chores and watching over their children. She occasionally went out to get supplies and groceries for the house, even though she had to be disguised to do it. She didn't mind though really, she was happy to do it. Every night when the kids got home along with Renton and Axel, Eureka would always have a hot dinner waiting for them on the table. Axel and Renton protested to let them help, but she always refused. In fact if they even tried to help she would either push or kick them out of the kitchen! The boys eventually gave up and let the kitchen be her territory, which Eureka had no problem with at all. The nice thing was she didn't know what Renton had planned for her when they finally got back together with the GekkoState.
The children absolutely loved having their mama and papa finally home at last. They would always be up at the same time as Eureka in the morning and would wait for her to make breakfast for all of them before they headed out for the day. They would always pay attention to what their parents told them to do, as well as their grandfather too of course. Eureka and Renton would always help them with their homework, make sure their chores were done and always made sure they got into bed on time. In a way you could say that they were functioning as a regular, normal family. You could also tell that they wouldn't have had it any other way..
Late one night after putting the kids to bed, Renton was sitting on the bed in their room looking at the engagement ring that he had gotten Eureka while she was in the bathroom getting changed into her night clothes. A warm smile came to his face as the ring sparkled in the moonlight. He could just picture her in his mind of what she would look like in a wedding gown walking down the aisle. As he was thinking to himself, he quietly said "I can't wait until I make you my wife, Eureka." It was just then that he heard the door creak open and heard Eureka say "Renton?"
Renton quickly snapped shut the lid on the tiny box and quickly stuffed it back in his pocket.
"You ok Renton?" asked Eureka.
"Yeah, Just fine!! You just scared me a bit that's all!" he said. He then let out a heavy sigh and thought "Man that was close!" After he calmed down a bit he looked over at Eureka and said "Is there something wrong Eureka?"
"No." she replied calmly. "I was just wondering if we will ever get back in contact with the Gekko State soon that's all."
" We will don't worry." said Renton. "Grandpa has been trying but they haven't been in radio range at all. It'll happen we just have to keep trying."
Eureka gave a gentle nod and said "Ok."
"Listen," said Renton, "Lets get to bed and get some sleep. We can try again tomorrow and hopefully we'll finally get lucky ok?"
"Ok." said Eureka with a calm, happy expression on her face. It was the look of a woman in love, and it was a look she only gave Renton.
As the two turned out the lights, Eureka laid down and cuddled with him with her back up against Renton's chest. Renton then wrapped his arms around her and quietly said "I love you Eureka." in her ear. She then turned her head toward him, and with the look of true love on her face, she said "I love you too, Renton." and with that they gave each other a gentle goodnight kiss and fell into a nice comfortable sleep.
When Renton woke the next morning, he was laying on his back and Eureka had her head laying on his chest and her left arm was draped across his midsection. The way she looked when she slept brought a warm smile to his face. He knew that she was comfortable by the way she looked. It was then he heard the door creaking open again as three little heads peeked in.
"Shhhh" said Renton quietly. He slowly and gently moved Eureka as not to disturb her from her sleep, then carefully got up and quietly went into the hallway. When he got there he asked the kids "Hey, want to go downstairs with me and help me make your mom some breakfast?"
"Sure papa!" they all said quietly and they then all snuck downstairs into the kitchen.
A little while later Eureka started stirring in bed as smells of food started drifting into the room. Before she could even get up, a knock came onto the door.
"Who is it?" she asked. Just then all three kids came running into the room, jumped on her bed, and gave their mom a huge group hug. As laughs and giggles came from the room, Renton and Axel walked in behind them carrying bed trays full of food.
" We all ate already." said Renton. "But me, the kids, and even grandpa made yours for you and brought it up to you to enjoy here."
"Thank you everyone!!" said Eureka. As she sat there and enjoyed her food, they all sat in the room with her talking, joking around and having an all around good time together. It was probably the best time they had ever had as a family.
Meanwhile up in the skies above, the Gekkostate was finally getting close to Bellforest.. Everyone on the ship was doing their own thing after they had all had a hearty breakfast themselves. Holland, Hap, Gidget, Woz, and Moon Doggie along with Ken-goh were all in the bridge doing their normal day to day operations. Talho was back in their room tending to her and Holland's son, while Hilda and Matthieu looked after the LFO's since Renton wasn't around to do it. Mischa sat in her office as always looking through all the research on Eureka and Renton that she did still trying to understand it. After a little while, Gidget piped up and said "Leader, we have an unknown contact paging us!"
"Who is it?" asked Holland
"Not sure." said Gidget. "The frequency they're using is encoded so it's hard to tell."
"I wonder?" said Holland. "Hey Hap are we near Bellforest at all?"
"Yeah." said Hap. "We're about three hours out.."
"Hey Gidget put the transmission through!" said Holland.
"Roger!" said Gidget. In a second the voice of an old man came through the speakers.
"GekkoState this is A.T calling- do you hear me?"
Holland knew who it was right away. The only time Axel would contact them is if it was something wrong going on with the kids, but this time his voice sounded different..
"Axel this is the GekkoState- what's wrong with the kids this time?" Holland replied.
"Nothing." said Axel. "The kids are fine. This is another matter which may be of some concern to you."
"Oh yeah and what's that?" said Holland
"Well, it concerns Renton and Eureka." said Axel. Just then the cockpit of the Gekko went to a dead silence.
"Yeah what about them?"
"Well, they're back home now, here in Bellforest with me." Axel replied.
"WHAT!!!" yelled Holland.
"Yeah they're home Holland! They have been for several weeks now.. We've been trying to contact you but you haven't been in radio range up until now."
"How are they? Are they ok?" asked Holland Excitedly.
"They're great Holland. They've been sitting here waiting for you guys to show up for the past several weeks now enjoying their time with the kids." said Axel.
"Well tell them to hang tight! We're on our way! Gekko out!"
"A.T out!" and the radio went silent.
"Doggie, set our course for Bellforest and step on it!!" Holland yelled.
"Roger that!!" yelled Moon Doggie. After that he set their course and put the booster rockets on full blast.
"Gidget, complete radio silence from now on unless it's Axel!"
"Roger that!" said Gidget.
"Hap, watch those trapar counts!! Woz, Make sure there are no rebels in our way!!
"Roger that!" replied Hap.
"Roger leader." said Woz.
It was just then that everyone else came running into the cockpit wondering what all the excitement was about.
"Hey leader what's going on?" asked Matthieu.
"Yeah!" said everyone else.
"Its Renton and Eureka- they're back home in Bellforest!!" said Holland.
The excitement in the cockpit was so thick you could have cut it with a knife. "So everyone get to your stations!! If we go fast enough we can make it in two hours instead of three!" Yelled Holland
"Roger that!" yelled everyone and they all scattered to their positions. The only one who didn't move was Talho, who stood there next to Holland with their son in her arms.
"You ready for this Holland?" asked Talho gently with a smile on her face.
"Yeah, I have been for a while now. It'll be great to see them again after what happened." said Holland calmly.
"Yeah it will be won't it?" said Talho. They then looked at each other with a calm smile and then looked ahead of the cockpit as the earth went by them at incredible speeds.
Axel had decided that after the last transmission that he wasn't going to tell them. He wanted to keep it a surprise for Renton and Eureka. He was sure the two would love it. Before he walked out of the radio room though, he changed the look on his face to hide what he was doing. As he walked out of the room, he immediately ran into Eureka as he entered the hallway.
"Any luck yet?" asked Eureka.
"No not yet but we'll keep trying, ok?"
"Ok." she said calmly and went on her way.
"Whew that was close!" he said to himself.
Two hours later like Holland had planned, the GekkoState landed at the Bellforest airport. Since everyone wanted to go and see the young couple, they all climbed on top of either the 606, 808, or the completely rebuilt 909 and headed out in vehicle mode. In another fifteen minutes the crew would be complete again, along with the surprise that Renton also had for them.
Axel, Renton, Eureka, and the kids were all sitting in the living room watching T.V. It was a nice, lazy weekend with gorgeous weather on this particular day. Axel could barely keep his excitement at what was going to happen, but he kept his posture at all times until a knock came to his door.
"I'll get it!" said Renton.
"No you sit tight and I'll get it." said Axel as he got up from the sofa. Axel then walked up to the door, opened it and said "What do you want?" as he winked at Holland and the crew motioning them to play along. "Well?" asked Axel again as the crew of the Gekko stood there with smirks on their faces while they tried not to laugh and give themselves away.
"Grandpa who is it?" asked Renton as he, Eureka and the kids got up and went to the door. When they got there, Renton and Eureka stopped in their steps and froze while the kids continued to run outside and say hi to everyone. The very same crew that they had called family was finally standing there in front of them after a year of not being with them.
"Hey little shrimp, aren't you going to say anything?" said Talho with a calm, motherly tone.
"Hi Renton and Eureka, how have you guys been doing?" asked Holland.. Before they knew it, the young couple had ran up to them and embraced them tightly before going around and saying their hello's to the rest of their family of which they had missed so much. Soon enough everyone had clamored inside to catch up on all that they had missed while they were gone. After a long afternoon of talking, joking around, and eating, Renton piped up and said "Hey, can we go see the Gekko? It's obviously been a while and I'd like to see it again."
"Sure let's go!" said Holland, and without another word everyone climbed on top of the LFO's and took off in the direction of the Gekkostate.
In fifteen minutes, Renton and Eureka arrived at the ship that they had once called home.
Holland, Talho, and the kids took Eureka and Renton around the ship and showed them a few things that had changed since they left. For one the room that was next to Holland and Talho's room that was a closet had been nicely transformed into a room for their new son. The second thing was that Renton's old room had unfortunately got turned into a closet again, which kind of depressed him a bit. Talho then took them to one final door that they didn't recognize.. Renton wasn't too worried about it though for he thought there wasn't any room for him on the ship anymore. The same thought worried Eureka too until Talho said "We've got a surprise for you in this room!"
As Talho opened the door, they all walked into the room and the young couple were surprised to see a bedroom just like Holland and Talho's. As they looked around the room and everything in it, Eureka asked "Who's room is this?"
"Go remove that door plate and you'll find out." said Holland with a smirk on his face.
As Eureka went to the door and removed the face plate that hid the name tag, Her and Renton's eyes went wide as they noticed their names on it. When they turned to look at Holland and Talho, the happiest look in the world came to their faces.
"We thought you two would like to have your own room together now if you ever wanted to stay or visit with us." said Talho.
"Thank you!" said the young couple, as they embraced both Holland and Talho. "You're welcome," said Holland "now lets go join the rest of the crew before they come looking for us."
"Ok." said Renton and Eureka. They then walked out of the room and made their way to the lounge where everyone had gathered for the night.
After they arrived at the lounge, they all continued to talk, eat and joke around all night long like nothing had ever changed since they left the Gekko. It was one of the most comfortable times everyone had ever had on the ship since the young couple went missing.
After a while Holland noticed Renton started acting a little strange. At first he didn't want to say anything, but after a little bit he finally asked "Hey Renton, are you ok?"
Renton looked up at him and said "Oh, yeah I'm fine!!" kind of nervously.
"Ok if you say so!" said Holland.
Renton had finally decided that the time was right. It was time for him to do what he had been wanting to do now that everyone was finally back together. It had been too long a wait for him. Slowly he got up and nervously said "Everyone I have something that I've been wanting to do since we've gotten back together today." The room went quiet as everyone turned their attention to Renton. "Eureka could you join me up here please?" asked Renton.
Eureka then got up from where she was sitting and went and joined Renton as he stood in the front of the room.
"Eureka," said Renton, "There's something I've been wanting to ask you, but I wanted to wait until we had everyone back together. Now that we do, I think it's finally time that I did." he said nervously.
"What is it Renton?" asked Eureka.
It was then that Renton let out a nervous sigh, got down on one knee and pulled a little gray box out of his shorts pocket. Everyone in the room let out a gasp because they knew exactly what was going on.
"Eureka," said Renton, "me and you have been through a lot together. Probably more than any couple should have. A few times we almost lost each other because of those times, but we always managed to stick together in the end, and now I want to make it official. I guess what I'm trying to say is Eureka, is that I love you with all my heart, and so will you be my wife? Will you marry me?"
As Renton was saying this, he had opened the box, exposing the ring that was inside.. Eureka couldn't believe what had just happened in front of her. All you could see were the tears of happiness running down her face.
"Oh Renton!!" said Eureka, "I love you so much! Of course I'll marry you!!" and with that Renton slipped the ring on her finger.
The room exploded into a outburst of applause, cheering, and happy tears. In the excitement you could hear Holland say "Ladies and gentleman, I give you the future Mr. and Mrs. Renton Thurston!!"
Renton couldn't believe he had done it. He finally made Eureka his future bride. In a way you could say that he was the happiest person in the world besides Eureka. It was then that Talho silenced the room and said "Well, I guess we have a wedding to start planning!! Eureka, I'll be helping you myself personally!!"
Eureka nodded her head yes in anticipation as she held the hand of her future husband.. She then looked at the ring on her hand, looked at Renton and then said "Let's do it!!"
"What date should we set?" asked Renton
"How about a year from this day?" said Eureka
"Ok it's settled then!" said Renton. "The wedding will be one year to this day!!
The room exploded in excitement of the engagement as they celebrated all night long.
