Moment 25 - The Proposal

(Florence and Taggert had just walked in on Nikolas and Gia together. They left them to get dressed, but both are furious and ready to haul Gia home, as far away from Nik as possible.)

Gia: What are you going to say to them?

Nikolas: Something will come to me.

Gia: I think we should make a run for it.

Nikolas: Trust me, ok? I'll handle this.

Gia: Nikolas, I don't think you're seeing the real picture here. My brother can occasionally be reasoned with, but nobody handles my mother. I mean, she is not going to believe a thing that you say to her.

Nikolas: I'll wing it.

Gia: Ok. Well, the fact is that I am an adult. And it's not like she's supporting me, so she can't really cut me off. But I already did give her one heart attack, and if anything else were to happen to her, how could I live with myself?

Nikolas: Everything will be fine. Ok? {He kisses her} It's going to be fine.

Gia: {Steps away from him} That's what you think.

Florence: {Her and Taggert walk back in} All right, Nikolas. Let's hear your 25 words so I can collect my daughter and leave. {Nikolas counts the tips of his fingers}

Taggert: Forget it. You're a clown, and we're out of here. Let's go.

Nikolas: Now, wait a second, wait a second. I can do it in exactly 18 words. {He smiles at Gia} I love and respect your daughter. And I intend to propose marriage to her. May I have your blessing? {They all look at him}

Nikolas: Mrs. Campbell, Lt. Taggert, I love Gia, and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I will honor, cherish, and respect her. And I believe in my heart that I can give her a wonderful life. {Florence looks at Gia} Now, I understand why you have your doubts, but I do hope that they will diminish over time because I would love for you to get to know me better and for me to have the chance to get to know you. I know that we both would love your blessing, but with or without it, I will marry her.

Florence: Well, that's a lovely speech, but where's the ring?

Gia: Mother!

Nikolas: It's ok. It's ok. {He walks over to the desk and gets the ring} Like I said, they have every reason to distrust me. {Shows it to her mother}

Florence: It's quite beautiful. But as for my blessing on anything -- we'll see.

Taggert: This is one of the smoothest acts I've ever seen. {Nikolas is watching Gia}

Gia: Mom, you and Marcus need to go.

Taggert: {Turns to Gia} Gia, he is no more going to marry --

Gia: Now.

Florence: Ok, honey. Let's go. {She leaves and Taggert reluctantly follows}

Nikolas: {Takes a few steps closer to her} Well? {Gia looks at the ring and back at him} Say something.

Gia: You say something first.


Gia: {Walks toward him} You were brilliant. Are you always this good at handling angry mothers?

Nikolas: It's part of my prince training. Do you like the ring?

Gia: {She takes it from him} Well, the important thing is my mother liked it.

Nikolas: So, you don't like it, right?

Gia: Well, it's exquisite. Forgive me for being crude, but is it real?

Nikolas: {Smiles} Yes, it's real.

Gia: Wow. So, do you always keep one of these handy?

Nikolas: Well, you know, I mean, timing is everything.

Gia: So, is it from your family?

Nikolas: No.

Gia: Well, that is gorgeous. If only it could speak. I bet it has some stories to tell. But, you know, you've only postponed the inevitable with my mother. I was right. We should have run. {She kisses him and gives him back the box}

Nikolas: Not so fast. {He walks over to her} You're right. You're right. This ring does have a story.

Gia: Are you waiting for me to ask?

Nikolas: Yeah, I'm waiting.

Gia: What's the story behind the ring?

Nikolas: Ok. Once upon a time, there was this lonely prince, who -- well, he thought that he would never find his princess. And then one day, he met this feisty young spitfire with a mouth full of insults, but a tender heart. She was completely irreverent and unacceptable to his family, but she loved him and she made him feel whole. And he knew that if he was ever in trouble she would get to him and god help the person who stood in her way. And that's pretty much how he felt about her.

Nikolas: So then, one day when they thought they had made it through everything, the girl's mother stormed in and insisted that the prince and the girl break up. She was concerned that the prince's intentions weren't honorable. But he was ready for her. So he went to this drawer and he took out this very ring, which {Gia turns around} -- ahem -- he had bought earlier to ask that very girl that same very night to marry him. Gia Campbell, will you marry me? {She throws her arms around him}

Gia: {Pulls back, wiping her tears} I thought it was just a scam to get rid of my family.

Nikolas: I knew that. I just wish I had a video camera because you were so cute, trying to play cool.

Gia: Cute! You want cute? Oh, wait, the ring. You have to put it on me.

Nikolas: No, not until you say yes. No.

Gia: Yes! Yes!

Nikolas: Ok. Ok. {He takes the ring out of the box and places it on her finger}

Gia: So, does this mean that I'll be a princess now?

Nikolas: Well, you were born a princess. Sparky the princess, my future wife.


Song Currently Dedicated To The Proposal!!!

Craig David; Once In A Lifetime

Once, in my life, I have the chance to find
Once, in my life, I have the chance to find

Once in a lifetime, I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me
Once in a lifetime, I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

In the beginning trouble times in my life
I needed a shoulder to cry on
Had no direction until I met you
Everything is gonna be all right

Looking out beyond the stars
Searching, always wishing
Often I thought that love would escape me
You got the key babe

Once in a lifetime, I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

I was lost, couldn't find my way
You took my hand and chased my blues away
Your inspiration is guiding me through
I'm feeling brand new

Memories of days gone by
Hurting, always hurting
You've taken my pain away, finally
You set me free babe

Once in a lifetime, I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me
Once in a lifetime, I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

Lifehouse; Everything

Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light that's leading me
to the place where I find peace again
You are the strength that keeps me walking
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
You are the life to my soul
You are my purpose
You' re everything
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Could you tell me how could it be any better than this
You calm the storms
And you give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You steal my heart
And you take my breath away
Would you take me in
Take me deeper now
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Could you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Could you tell me how could it be any better than this
'Cause you're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Could you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Can you tell me how could it be any better than this

Martina McBride; Valentine

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you
And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
You're all I need
My love, my Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And shown me how to love unselfishly
I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
In my dreams
I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time
You're all I need
My love, My Valentine

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time

Cuz all I need
Is you my Valentine
You're all I need
My love, my Valentine

Collin Raye; In This Life

For all I've been blessed with in this life
There was an emptiness in me
I was imprisoned by the power of gold
With one honest touch
You set me free

Let the world stop turning
Let the sun stop burning
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart
I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life I was loved by you

For every mountain I have climbed
Every raging river crossed
You were the treasure that I loved to find
Without your love I would be lost

Let the world stop turning
Let the sun stop burning
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart
I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life I was loved by you

In this life I was loved by you

Myra; Miracles Happen

Miracles happen, miracles happen
You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, miracles happen

I can't imagine living my life without you now
Not ever having you around
We found our way out
On you I can depend
Don't have to look back to realize how far we've come
There are million reasons
I'm lookin up
I don't want this to end

Nothin'
Nothin' should ever bring you down
Knowing what goes around will come around

You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, once in a while
When you believe
Miracles happen
You showed me dreams come to light
That takin' a chance on us was right
All things will come with a little time
When you believe

There is no question we found the missing pieces
Our picture is complete
It's fallen into place
It's fallen into place
This is out moment, you and I are looking up
Someone is watching over us
Keeping me close
Closer to you everyday

Nowhere
Nowhere on earth I'd rather be
No one can take this away from you and me

You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, once in a while
When you believe
Miracles happen
You showed me dreams come to light
That takin' a chace on us was right
All things will come with a little time
When you believe

When you believe
The soul is a shining light
When you believe
The heart has the will to fight
You can do anything, don't be afraid
We're gonna find our way

You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, once in a while
When you believe
Miracles happen
You showed me dreams come to light
That takin' a chace on us was right
All things will come with a little time
When you believe

Jessica Simpson; Your Faith In Me

Oh when I see you there
I’m so aware
Of how lucky I am baby
'Cuz I don’t deserve
I don’t come close
To understanding baby
The logic of your kind of trust
It amazes me
That someone like you
Would care enough
To just believe

Your faith in me
It pulls me through
When there’s nothing around
To hold onto
When I fall
When I’m weak
All the strength that I need
Is your faith baby
Your faith in me, oh

Even when we fight
I get along
'Cuz our love is real baby
It’s like salvation to my soul
'Cuz that’s how it feels baby
It’s a sacred thing
That I keep close
To carry on
And I know that I will be alright
And you’ll heal it all

Your faith in me
It pulls me through
When there’s nothing around
To hold onto
When I fall
When I’m weak
All the strength that I need
Is your faith baby
Your faith in me

You make me feel I can walk on water
I can reach the farthest star
And nothing comes against me
Safe within your arms

Your faith in me
It pulls me through
When there’s nothing around
To hold onto
When I fall
When I’m weak
All the strength that I need
Is your faith baby
Is your faith, baby
Your faith in me

When I fall baby oh
When I’m weak baby
All I need baby
Is your faith in me
When I fall baby
When I’m weak baby
All I need baby
Is your faith in me
When I fall baby
When I’m weak baby
All I need baby
Is your faith in me
When I fall baby
When I’m weak baby
All I need baby
Is your faith in me

Your faith in me

Jaheim; Forever

Forever
The love I have for you will last forever
Loving you always
Forever

Cause loving you is the best thing that I can do

Looking back on the times before you came

Gonna make sure that this love will last forever

Kenny Latimore; All My Tomorrows

All my yesterdays
All so blue
Days spent waiting
Waiting to find you
Now those days are so far behind
Another lifetime
Sign your name on my future
Write your name on my heart
You're the one that I need in my life
In my arms

All my tomorrows
They're all for you
All of my always
For all my whole life through
Cause you're the one I want
I want to give tomorrow to
You'll always have
All my tomorrows they're all for you baby

All your everdays I'll be there
You'll have no doubt how much that I care
There'll never be a day when I leave your side
Not in this lifetime
Write you name on my future
Sign your name on my soul
You're the one that I'll hold for all times
And I'm never never letting you go
No no baby cause

All my tomorrows
They're all for you
All of my always
For all my whole life through
Cause you're the one I want
I want to give tomorrow to
You'll always have
All my tomorrows they're all for you baby

Brian McKnight; Still

Funny when you stop and think
Time goes faster than you blink
But nothing's ever like it was
But girl we've got a special thing
And all the happiness it brings is more than enough

I know it's hard to believe
You're still the biggest part of me
All I'm living for

I still think about you
I still dream about you
I still want you
And need you by my side

I'm still mad about you
All I ever wanted was you
You're still the one
You're still the one

It's hard to breathe when we're apart
You're like sunshine in my heart
I keep you here inside

You've been everything to me
You've been and always will be
The apple of my eye

I know it's hard to believe
You're still the biggest part of me
All I'm living for

I still think about you
I still dream about you
I still want you
And need you by my side

I'm still mad about you
All I ever wanted was you
You're still the one
You're still the one

If you love me look into my eyes
And say you do
I've been waiting all my life
for someone just like you

And, baby, after all we've been through
Girl, I'm still in love with you
And I want you to know
I do, I do

I still think about you
I still dream about you
I still want you
And need you by my side

I'm still mad about you
All I ever wanted was you
You're still the one
You're still the one
