"Say something. Yes, maybe, never in a million years" said Nick.

"I don't know what to say. Your sure you want to marry me" said Howie.

"I love you that is never going to change" said Nick.

"It wouldn't even be legal" said Howie.

"It would in our hearts. Will you say yes before I turn into a pumpkin" said Nick.

"I can't believe I'm agreeing to this" said Howie.

"That's a yes."

"Yes, I'll marry you" said Howie.

"Come on, their's someone we have to tell" said Nick.

"Now, don't you think we should give it a little to sink with us, before we go telling everyone" said Howie.

"No, this is something we have to do now" said Nick.

"How could you tell him where Howie was. Howie is our friend, he trusted us not to tell Nick" said Kevin.

"I'm sorry but they love each other. They belong together. Whatever fight they had, they can work it out" said Kristin.

"This is the way to your parents house. No, tell me we are not headed to your parents house" said Howie.

"We're headed to my parents" said Nick.

"They are the last people we need to be telling."

"I want them to know that all their little schemes, their not going to work. That we are together, forever. End of discussion" said Nick.

"Nick, I really don't think...

"It's going to be ok, really. They can't destroy us, they've already tried" said Nick. Pulling into the driveway Howie nervously followed Nick as they made their way to the door.

"Mom, I'm taking the trash out, I'll be right...Nick, this is a surprise. Where have you been" said Leslie.

"You might want to ask mom" said Nick.

"Mom, Nick and Howie are here" said Leslie.

"Hi, mom. Can we come in" said Nick.

"Leslie, why don't you take the trash out later" said Jane.

You are going to stick around, aren't you. I never get to see you" said Leslie.

"I'll be around. So, can we come in or are we going to have to do this out here" said Nick.

"Come on in, Bob we have visitors" said Joan.

"Nick."

"Hey, dad."

"Why are you here" said Joan. I've asked Howie to marry me. He said yes, we're getting married" said Nick. "Are you crazy? What are you talking about" said Jane. "I know this is not what you wanted to hear" said Nick. "I want what is right, and what is right is that you come to your senses" said Bob. "What is right is that I love Howie. What is right is that I do what is best for me" said Nick. "It really seems like what we all want is to see Nick happy" said Howie. "Your not family, stay out of this" said Jane. "I can be this straight son that you want but I would just be pretending" said Nick. "Well don't expect us to support this." said Bob. "This is the biggest decision of anyone's life. Do you think I would make this if I wasn't sure. Do you think I would marry Howie out of spite. I would hope that you would support me. Even if it's too much to ask" said Nick. "We won't let you destroy your life this" said Bob. "It's my decision to make." "I don't know why you are doing this to us" said Jane. "Mom, why are you making this about you" said Nick. "Isn't it." "I am not trying to punish you." "You are making a mistake" said Jane. "You know I don't have time to try and please you anymore. I have to do what's right for me. Are you ever going to give me a break. Are you ever going to see me for who I am" said Nick. "Why must you constantly harp on this" said Jane. "Because, mom. My whole life has been about how I dressed, how I wore my hair, how well I did in school." "How does this matter." said Jane. "Don't you see. I am me, all I can be is me. And I hate that, that doesn't feel like enough" said Nick angrily. "We only wanted the best for you." "And I want what's best for me now. And I hope, I believe that one day you'll be able to understand that. Come on, let's go. We're going home" said Nick.

"Nick, wait. We can talk about this" said Bob.

"We have nothing more to say" said Nick.

What's going on. I got some message from your about Howie leaving" said AJ.

"They apparently had a fight. Howie said he needed to get away for a few days. I offered him the condo" said Kevin.

"So what, they have broken up" said AJ.

"I don't know. Howie didn't really want to talk about it" said Kevin.

"God, they were like this perfect couple. If they couldn't make it what does it say for the rest of us" said AJ.
