Betty rushed down the hall to Daniel's office. She didn't wait for his secretary to inform him she was there, she just walked in. Daniel looked up at her startled.

"Betty, what's wrong?" he asked her concerned.

"I just hung up with a very upset Becks. How could you e-mail him those tabloids?"

"What... what are you talking about?" he asked trying to play innocent.

"Don't even try to play dumb, HarvardGuy77. Come on, did you really think that name was original? Why did you do it?"

"I know it was stupid, mean and immature. But you're still holding onto him and if we're gonna make this work, well you need to let him go. I just feel like you're waiting for something to go wrong, so you can run back to him."

"That's not true at all. I don't want anything to go wrong and I don't want to be with Becks."

"Come on, you haven't really let him go, admit it. If you had, we wouldn't still be sneaking around."

"At first... I was nervous about getting back together. So yeah, maybe I did hold on to him a bit, but I don't anymore."

"Betty, I'm sorry I put you in that position. Actually... I'm not. I want you all or nothing, it's that simple. If you wanna be mad over this, go ahead."

"I'm not mad, I didn't realize you felt that way. I'm sorry Daniel, I don't want you to wonder whether or not I want to be with you. You're the only one I want to be with."

"So does that mean we're still on for family dinner tonight?"

"Yeah, of course."

"Great, cause mom already confirmed and Justin called to tell me he was excited."

"Great, I guess... I'll see you after work." she said.

Daniel and Betty were informed that their party was already seated, when they entered the restaurant.

"They're here early, this can't be good. Daniel, my family is late to everything."

"Relax, I'm sure they're just excited."

They walked into the private dinning area, to a full round table. Ignacio and Claire were seated together. There were two empty chairs directly across from them. Daniel decided to be the first to speak as they took their chairs.

"So... How's everyone doing tonight?" he asked met with silence.

"How could you both, keep something so big from us? Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted you reconciled but did I have to find out from Smithy Combs." Claire said.

"Mom, I'm sor-," Ignacio decided it was his turn to speak.

"I am also happy for you, but the lies, the sneaking around, why? We are your family, we support you but you don't trust us."

"Papi, leave them alone. They're adults, maybe they didn't want to get your hopes up, maybe they wanted to reconnect, maybe they didn't wanna have to give explanations, and maybe-"

"Hilda, we get the point," Ignacio said interrupting her. Betty look over at her sister, she knew Hilda was nervous and it had nothing to do with her and Daniel. She made a mental note to find out what was going on with her later.

"Aunt B, I'm happy for you guys. So Daniel, if you and Aunt Betty end up married, does that mean I can have access to the closet?" asked.

"Yeah, unlimited access. If your aunt marries me though." Daniel said smiling.

"Um... Aunt Betty, what are you waiting for? You know you guys are gonna end up together, not matter what. So you guys should get married, soon."

"OK, let's not stray from the point here. Daniel, Betty, we're happy you're back together. It's what we've wanted, still I would like to know why you hid it from us?" Ignacio asked.

"Cause I asked him to. I'm really sorry, to all of you. I was just nervous and scared I didn't want anyone to know, until I was sure it would last." Betty told them.

"We forgive you, right papi. It's not like you were pregnant and didn't tell anyone, geesh." Everyone looked at Hilda as she ate her food. Claire cleared her throat raising her glass.

"Betty, you're like family to me. I look forward to the day that you are my daughter in-law."

"Thank you, Claire."

"Betty and I are not getting engaged yet. It's still to soon, we're just going public now. So... when we're ready to make it into more, I promise, you'll all be the first to know."

As Betty and Daniel were getting ready for bed, thoughts were rolling through her mind. Daniel was right, they weren't ready to jump into an engagement. It bothered her, why did he have to say that to their families. Was he having doubts? Maybe he didn't want to get married anymore, she figured he'd ask again in a month or so. She couldn't help the thoughts going through her mind.

"Are you OK? You looked really annoyed."

"Huh, yeah... yeah I'm fine, just tired." She said trying to play it off.

Sorry I took so long to update, this is a crazy time of year for me. I know this chapter is short, however I have started on the next one. This story will be ending in about two chapters. Things have calmed down so I hope to have the next chapter up later this week. :)
