What Are The Odds? Chapter 17 & 18


When the Pizza arrived, we all sat down, soaking wet, to eat. It was then that Faith remembered how we used to give pizza toasts at birthday parties when we were little. "They'd go like this," she explained, "Happy Birthday to whoever, We all love you, and your pet hamster, too." "I know, they were so dumb!" I remembered. "Let's try that!" Melissa said excitedly. "I'll start. To my gorgeous sexy boyfriend Howie. I love you!" "Cheers!" we all shouted. We went on like that for about 10 minutes, when Brian stood up and said, "Ok, you guys, I got one. It's for my girl, Blair." Brian was sitting next to me, so he stood up on his chair, and, looking down on me, with his hair curled and sticking out in odd places, took a deep breath and said, "Blair, I love you with all my heart, and even though I have only known you a few weeks, you have changed my life. Blair Hurm, will you marry me?"

Hurry up!!' I looked up at him, snapped back to reality, stood up on my chair, took his hand, and said, "yes." A cheer went up from the whole table. I was hugging Brian, and when we let go, we looked at the rest of the table and said, "Everyone, we're getting married!
