LATER

The weekends didn't change too much, just had more romance to them now. Despite that, Tino and his friends did the usual hanging out and snacking. The only time their routines ever changed was on weekend nights or Valentine's Day. That was when they actually dated rather than just hang out. This continued into high school.

Things started to really change closer to the end of high school, since they were all going to different colleges. Lor got into the National Collegiate Athletic Association (mostly under basketball), and Tish got into Oxford to work in Shakespearean plays. Tino and Carver did really good too, but they didn't get into a four-year college right away. I mean of course Tino is smart, but he couldn't decide which college to go to, so he just went to a local community college while he decided. Carver got more into fashion, and so majored in that in community college while looking for a company to hire him.

As for the old hangout it turned out that it was government property, a bit of property that they had forgotten about. So, Tino decided to work for the National Resources Defense Council and promote that his and his friends' hangout be turned into a national park. He won, and the park was called Weekender Wilds. To his surprise he was made the Head Park Ranger of the place!

During all this Tino, Lor, Tish, and Carver never lost touch with each other. They always kept in contact, and made a pact to meet around the winter holidays each year. When Tino got their old hangout turned into a National Park his friends sent him letters of congratulations. Lor especially was happy, since she now didn't have to worry for Sport or his family's safety.

Eventually they got back together for good in Bahia Bay. Lor decided that she didn't want to travel all over playing sports if it meant staying apart from her friends for extended periods. Carver was able to find a fashion company around Bahia Bay that would hire him. Tish decided to work professionally in the old Shakespeare arena.

Later on, Lor and Tino got married. The unique thing about it was that, well:

Tino and Lor were on a date. After dinner and a movie Tino walked Lor home.

"I had a wonderful evening." Tino smiled.

"Me too, and it's about to get better...depending on what you say." Lor smiled back knowingly.

"What do you mean?" Tino asked.

They reached Lor's door by this point. Lor, who was wearing designer pants and a pretty top, kneeled and took something out of her purse. It was a ring box with a jewel-less gold ring inside.

"Tino, will you marry me?" She asked.

Completely caught off guard, Tino dropped his mouth opened and widen his eyes. Lor tried not to laugh as she saw his shocked expression.

"Wha-" Tino squeaked out; then he finally recovered and hugged her. "Of course I will!"

Lor hugged him back, and then after they broke apart she put the ring on his finger.

"Lor you...how long have you been planning this?" Tino laughed.

"A few weeks...dad helped me pick out the ring." Lor smiled; she then became confused as Tino continued laughing. "What in Bahia Bay is so funny?" She asked.

"This!" Tino continued laughing, pulling out a ring box!

Lor now dropped her mouth open.

"I was about to propose to you but you beat me to it!" Tino explained.

Now Lor started laughing. After they recovered she took the ring box from Tino and opened it to find a silver band with a round orange sapphire in the middle. Tino then put that ring on her finger. Then, what else? They kissed.

Both their families as well as Tish and Carver, were extremely happy for the couple, and also laughed when they heard about the double-proposal.
