After a couple of weeks of planning what seemed like a great proposal in my head had finally seemed to be coming together. Fiona, V and Ian had been doing their parts to help bring all of this together and I owe them so much gratitude for doing so. Cause if it was myself alone it probably would have ended in disaster. I wanted this moment in our lives to be a special one as each day had been that Clarissa had been in my life. I couldn't imagine life without her in it and I wasn't about to let that chance arise.

"Okay I got the lights set up and ready to go!" Ian said ecstatically as the excitement became to much for the family to keep a secret much longer. "Awesome!" I said giving him a high five, "what can I do?" Debbie asked tugging at the back of my shirt behind me. "Ummmmmmm you can help Fiona and V finish decorating the Alibi for the ceremony if you want kid?" I replied basically coming up with jobs to do at this point. My mind was going in every which direction you could think of that I almost forgot about the trip to campus today to pick up the house key for our new place. "Shit!" I thought to myself as I ruffled through pockets of my dirty Jean's to find my wallet. When I heard Clarissa yell my name from downstairs. "Lip?" She hesitated waiting for my response before yelling my name again. "Yeah?" I replied running down the stairs, "are you ready?" She said sitting on the kitchen counter with her legs crossed drinking a cup of coffee. The house was silent something that didn't seem to happen that often. Seeing as Brayden was with Fiona, V, Kev and Debbie at the Alibi giving Liam someone to play with while they set up things for later  today. And Ian had taken Carl with him to figure out something to do about a cake we were the only ones in the house.

I swiped my tongue over my bottom lip and wiped away the saliva I had left behind using two fingers. Damn, I thought as I looked her hourglass figure up and down as she sat on the edge of the countertop wearing only a black see through loose tank top with no bra underneath. And a pair of teal blue micro shorts, so short you could barely see the bottom hem. Mmmm I said as I moved closer to her slapping the side of her thigh with the palm of my hand making her jump a little. It was as if something had taken over me knowing today was busy I couldn't control myself I had to have her. I thought as I nibbled her ear lobe up to her lips tugging the bottom one with my teeth. "I want you" I chanted over and over again as I kissed her sun kissed body. Picking her up from the counter and slamming her on top of the kitchen table. Making incredibly passionate love one last time as girlfriend and boyfriend. Little did this beautiful woman know that later today she would soon become my wife.... that is if she accepted my proposal and idea for a quick but sweet Alibi wedding all she had to do was sign the dotted line of that marriage certificate and she would be mine forever and always. After the incredible  sex Clarissa and I had just had she hurried up the stairs to change her clothes so we could head out the door.

Clarissa POV:

Something seemed different in Lip over the past few days. You could feel the tension and anxiety dissipate the longer the time went on without Frank around. He was such a happier person, he was always happy, no longer aggravated at the little things. Had even drifted away from smoking pot but the occasional few times a week. Things were finally starting to feel like they should in our lives. We could finally be happy and live life the way it was intended without the burden of a neglectful father. He was a completely changed person it was almost if Frank had never existed. Don't get me wrong Lip has always been a sweet guy but he has always had the weight of the world on his shoulder, and now that that weight was gone we could finally move on with our lives.

Lip POV:

As we cuddled on the L all the way to the student housing office, all I could picture when I looked at Clarissa was the life we could have on our own and the bigger family we would create together further down the road. When I looked at her I saw my future and the memories we would have to make up for all the bad ones we have gained over the course of our lives. I have never been a religious man but staring into the face of an angel I knew he had to exist cause nobody could create such an incredible person as she was by accident.

The student housing advisor showed us to our future home. It was small, but quaint. The quality wasn't the best but it was definitely a step up from anything else we had ever lived in before. It was a one bedroom, which was a tight squeeze but since Brayden was only a year old and if we were going to stay here for the good duration of three years then he could just share a room with us. The bedroom was decent size along with the kitchen. Which was great and definitely made up for the size of the living room and the bathroom considering those were the smallest rooms.
"Well what do you think baby?" I asked her as she over looked the kitchen cabinets and all the space they had inside. She turned her head around to me, while I stood by the advisor shaking her head. "It's perfect!" She gasped as a enormous smile stretched over her face. It must have been contagious because she made myself and the housing advisor smile as well.
"Well guys welcome home!" He said handing me over the keys. "You can move in immediately, whenever you would like!" He said very chipper and happy to have us aboard. When my phone went off, it was Ian.

Phone conversation:

Hey bro, everything is set..... just ignore the cake it was the best we could do.... he said as Carl laughed in the background.

What's wrong with the cake? I asked curious as to what was so funny it was making Carl giggle like a little school girl.

Well Lip, let's just say it says happy birthday and has some wierd name on it looks like Julian.... Ian said making his own self laugh.

I kinda sighed but was still grateful for the attempt. Thanks.... I said with an unintentional tone of voice.

Sorry dude,  it was the best we could do and we basically stole it from some kid soo.....

Carl still laughing in the background.

Can you at least try to fix the name somehow or ask V?  I asked desperately.

No problem man, just calm down everything is going to be cool. Don't stress, he said to me before hanging up the phone.... which only made me stress more.

"Everthing okay hun?"  She asked me probably for the simple fact I was stressing myself out trying to make this day perfect. She probably noticed me freaking myself out.
"Yeah babe. Just a busy next couple of days we have to start packing and ya know."  I said with a half grin and giving her a kiss on the lips. It was nice to finally be in a good place in our lives again... and to be able to start over again and with her by my side.
