The entire Elite Force is in the room,everyone looks terrible, tired, some confused and others just worn out.

Harper and Chase are lying on the couch, looking tired, Harper has her face buried in Chase's chest while he caresses the back of her neck with one hand and with his other hand resting on his forehead, with his eyes closed.

Adam is lying on the floor with a magazine on his face blocking the light and Grace is sitting on the floor next to him watching him trying not to fall asleep wrapped in a blanket.

Leo is sitting on the sofa sleeping and ends up lying on Kaz's shoulder who is next to him, Kaz is bothered but he is feeling too bad to take Leo off his shoulder.

In the armchair Skylar, who is the only one of them who seems well and willing, has Oliver sleeping, lying on her lap.

Bree is in the kitchen preparing coffee for everyone, she is wearing a sweatshirt and hood, she yawns,she grabs some mugs.

"coffee is ready guys" Bree says "Yey" everyone says without much enthusiasm, Bree starts handing out the mugs.

"I'm the only one who doesn't ever want to drink again?" Chase says grabbing a mug "I'm kind of feeling that way too" Harper says grabbing a mug too.

"Well, that's how normal teenagers live, you're still lucky, normally college students go to parties like that, get hungover and try to go to class the next day" Grace says drinking coffee "You're a student, shouldn't you be in class right now?" Skylar says "I said try to go... I couldn't" Grace says.

"If this is how normal teenagers feel, I'll pass" Adam says "Leo!" Bree says waking up Leo who takes his head off Kaz's shoulder and takes the mug in fright.

Bree hands a mug to Kaz who looks into her eyes when he takes it "thanks" Kaz gives a slight smile.

When Kaz picks up the mug, he lightly touches Bree's hand, when she feels Kaz's hand, Bree kind of freezes and doesn't let go of the mug "I think this is the part where you let go of the mug" Kaz says, Bree looks into his eyes and quickly lets go of the mug "of course" Bree says a little awkwardly she goes to the other side of the sofa and sits down.

"But it was a good party tho" Leo says, everyone is silent "as far as we remember" Adam says "what would it be?" Harper says "I don't remember much of it" Oliver says.

"I remember" Skylar says "Oh You don't say!" Everyone says angrily "hey it's not my fault my alien biology doesn't get me drunk" Skylar says.

"What happened yesterday?" Adam says "A lot of things, I just don't remember what?" Harper says "Everything is like a blur" Grace says.

"it wasn't that bad" Kaz says quietly "but better not think about it too much" Bree says strangely addressing him.

"I agree with Bree" Chase says, Harper looks at him slightly confused.

"I think it's better for our reputation as heroes if we forget about last night" Skylar says "I bet it wasn't very presentable" Oliver says "Not at all Honey" Skylar says running her hand over his hair.

"So everyone agrees to forget about yesterday?" Harper says, everyone looks at each other "Yes!" Everyone responds.

Adam gets up looking in pain "I think I must have hit my back yesterday, it hurts" Adam says "What do you mean?" Bree asks "I don't know, here, can you see if there's anything?" Adam.

He takes off his shirt showing his back and everyone gasps in surprise "What happened?" Adam says, everyone stares at a huge tattoo on Adam's back.

Grace with her hand over her mouth and holds back laughing "Uh let's say you just made it a lot harder to forget last night" Leo says with his eyes wide like everyone else, Adam tries to look at his own back.

......................................................................

✨✨

The night before that morning Grace invited everyone to a fraternity party for some of her college friends.

Everyone enters a big house, neon lights flashing, music loud, people dancing, drinking.

"Woah look at this!" Kaz says "What!?" Oliver asks over the loud music "Okay, I'm going to look for Drew, you guys enjoy and have fun!" Grace says, she leaves.

"Oh my God this is so exciting!! I've always wanted to come to a party like that" Bree says excitedly "seriously, I don't see much" Skylar says "It's actually pretty cool" Harper says.

"I bet you'll change your mind once you drink a few" Bree grabs two glasses of beer and hands one to Skylar "not really" Skylar says "why not?" Harper grabs a glass too.

"I'm an alien, and on my planet we are unable to get drunk on Earth liquor" Skylar says "Are you kidding?" Bree says "no, it's a fact" Skylar says "That's impressive" Harper says.

Bree looks at the glass of beer "what happened?" Harper says "I never drank beer" Bree says "Try it" Skylar says, Bree drinks.

"Uhg!" Bree says feeling the alcohol "so?" Harper asks "I confess I expected more" Bree says.

......................................................................

The boys go to a room in the house where some guys are playing beer pong.

"Oh look beer pong!" Kaz says, they get closer "Cool, always wanted to try" Oliver says "I don't think it's a good idea" Chase says.

"come on Chase" Leo says "it's just water!" Adam grabs a glass from the table and hands it to Chase "That's beer" Chase says "it's still liquid!" Adam says, Chase rolls his eyes.

"let's play!" Kaz says "no way" Chase says "but it's a party!" Leo says "There are better ways to enjoy a party" Chase says.

"Drinking at a party is the law Chase learn that!" Kaz says, Chase shakes his head.

"I don't care, I just want to find Harper and get out of here" Chase says "Well, she's probably already drinking from the bottle" Kaz laughs.

"of course she isn't, she knows how to take care of herself" Chase says "Of course she does" Adam chuckles "what do you mean by that?" Chase aks.

"Oh come on Chase, Have you ever imagined what would happen if she depended on you to protect her" Adam laughs and Kaz follows.

"I know how to protect her!" Chase says "sure" Kaz laughs "I'm serious, I take care of her better than anyone" Chase says uncomfortable.

"take care of her better than herself?" Oliver asks "You bet!" Chase says "Well Chase, how do you expect to take on the risk to protect her if you can't even risk a drinking game?" Leo says.

Chase looks at them impatiently "Think of it like this, we're only going to drink if we lose" Oliver says "yeah and we're not going to lose, are we?" Leo says, Chase thinks.

"Well, it seems simple" Chase looks at the table "so are you in?" Adam asks "Okay Fine!" Chase rolls his eyes and the boys celebrate.

......................................................................

Skylar sits on a couch half-heartedly with a glass of drink in her hand.

While Harper and Bree are at a table playing a drinking game, both of them are already slightly drunk.

"Okay next question, but remember if it's true you have to drink" Bree says "Fine" Harper laughs.

"Have you ever stolen anything?" Bree aks "is that a serious question? Do you know who you're talking to?" Harper says, Bree laughs.

"it was a stupid question" Bree says "fuck it I'm going to drink anyway" Harper says and drinks.

"Next question goes to you" Harper says "okay" Bree says "have you ever kissed anyone?" Harper asks, Bree drinks.

"who?" Harper asks "Owen but it was just a peck, and a guy I dated a while ago but it wasn't anything serious" Bree says "why didn't you ever tell me?" Harper asks "it's not important" Bree asks.

"okay and have you ever kissed anyone other than Chase?" Bree ask, Harper doesn't drink "really?" Bree smirk "yup, he was my first and only kiss and I was his" Harper says "aw that's so cute...But i have other question" Bree says "Okay, ask" Harper says.

"Do you think two friends can, like, hook up and not ruin their friendship?" Bree asks looking at the glass "No, I don't think it will work" Harper says.

"why not?" Bree says "because it will always mean something, everyone says no but..."" Oh and what do you know you've only been with one guy your whole life" Bree rolls her eyes.

"who do you want to be with?" Harper ask "A guy..." Bree says she bites her lip "is he here?" Harper looks around "maybe" Bree laughs she is already almost visibly drunk.

"Ask another question" Bree says "Uh do you intend to go after him today?" Harper laughs, Bree drinks the whole glass "Yeah!" Bree says.

"Can I stop you?" Harper says "Nope!" Bree says "well, have fun" Harper grabs a bottle of beer and drinks some more.

"Oh I will!" Drunk Bree leaves, Harper rolls her eyes.

She notices one of the guys from the football team who was at the party looking at her, she tries to ignore it

......................................................................

Harper walks through the crowd until she sees Chase "Aw look at him" Harper approaches him, Chase frowns.

"You're so cute Chasey, look at you I want to bite" Harper laughs, Chase looks at her confused "but seriously you're really cute, and you're the best boyfriend in the world have i ever said that?" Harper almost fell Chase catches her.

"Harper, are you drunk?" Chase aks "No, maybe, yeah, just a little tiny bit!" Harper chuckles making a small sign with her hands, Chase looks at her seriously.

"are you disappointed?" Harper asks, Chase laughs "No...because I am too!" Chase laughs, Harper frowns "you what?" Harper asks.

"yes, I don't remember exactly why but we started playing a drinking game and now...I'm completely drunk!!" Chase screams, Harper looks at him worriedly "Oh my God" Harper says.

"I know, my operating system is crazy but I can barely feel the difference look at how I'm crushing it" Chase takes a step forward and loses his balance and falls "wow" Harper says sarcastically.

"See?" Chase says on the floor "yeah, I saw... That I'm not drunk enough" Harper says picking up a glass.

......................................................................

Drunk Oliver goes to Skylar and starts handing her several drinks trying to get her to get drunk like him but to no avail.

Leo starts a dance competition with the dance students, Adam looks for Grace, and Kaz is dancing and starts a conversation with a girl.

Bree walks through the crowd looking for Kaz "Kaz!" Bree shouts "Kaz where are you!?" Bree says, she sees Kaz with the girl.

Before going to him she takes a deep breath and drinks some more "Kaz!" Bree says "Oh hey Bree" Kaz says "hi" Bree sighs looking into his eyes.

"uh that's.." "I don't want to know" Bree interrupts Kaz who tried to introduce the girl to Bree "Oh uh.." Kaz says confused.

"Kaz" Bree says "yeah" Kaz looks into her eyes "Dance with me?" Bree says "Uh..." Kaz says "Don't be afraid, let's teach these losers what a party is Woaaah!" Bree raises her arms in celebration.

"Wow of course!" Kaz smiles "Okay" Bree laughs she takes Kaz's hand and guides him to the dance floor and the two begin to dance.

......................................................................

Chase goes to the snack table to get something for him and Harper, meanwhile Harper continues drinking from the same bottle when that guy from the football team approaches her.

"Sup" he says "Hey" Harper responds dryly "I've never seen you around here, If I had ever seen a pretty girl like you I would remember" he says.

"I was invited by a friend, I'm just passing through" Harper says "Oh What a shame, I'd love to get to know you better" the guy approaches, Harper looks at him.

"I have a feeling we'd get along really, really well" he winks at her "I'm sorry, who are you again?" Harper says "I'm Nick" Nick says.

"Look, I don't know what fantasy world you live in but here in real life, I have a boyfriend so" Harper says.

"I don't see any boyfriend" Nick says, Chase stops behind him irritated "turn around!" Chase says firmly, Nick turns around "Now you see him" Chase smirks confidently.

"This is the guy" Nick laugh "Hey! wha...""baby let me handle it!" Chase interrupts Harper firmly and confidently, she takes a step back, confused.

"and what are you going to do nerd?" Nick bends down since he's taller than Chase "I'm only going to say it once, I don't want to see your stupid face not even looking in my girl's direction, am I clear?" Chase says.

"your girl?" Nick says "your girl!?" Harper smirk "You think you're really tough, right shorty?" Nick threatens Chase.

Chase stand still, it's time for him to prove the boys were wrong about him.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you...You don't know who you're messing with" Chase says, Nick frowns "Oh I really want to know who he's messing with" Harper bites her lip.

"And what are you going to do, punch me?" Nick laughs and everyone around him laughs "Something similar" Chase says.

Nick looks at him and prepares to punch Chase, who just raises his hand to use molecularkinesis to hold Nick's hand in the middle of the way "what?" Nick says confused.

Chase still holding Nick's hand whit his bionics, makes him punch himself, when he loses his balance Chase holds his arms back and puts Nick in a headlock.

"still in doubt?" Chase ask "What the fuck are you, Freak!?" Nick ask almost out of breath "My Man!" Harper smiles "your man?" Chase asks her, Harper smirks.

"I'm Her man!" Chase winks at her, and finishes by throwing Nick to the ground, Harper looks at Chase impressed while everyone around cheers for him.

Nick puts his hand on his neck confused.

......................................................................

Meanwhile, Bree and Kaz are enjoying drinking and dancing Bree laughs at Kaz dancing exaggeratedly just for fun.

"You're good!" Bree says in a high tone because of the music "Oh you haven't seen anything yet!" Kaz says he holds out his hand to her.

Bree takes his hand and he spins her towards him,Bree laughs gently and Kaz turns her so she is facing him.

"You look beautiful today" Kaz smirks, Bree smiles "does that mean I don't look beautiful on other days?" Bree says "hey I never said that" Kaz says.

Bree looks him in the eyes and gets a little closer "you're not bad either" Bree smirks, Kaz smiles.

"you're...the nicest guy I've ever met" Bree says calmly "Really?" Kaz aks "yeah, you're different...a good, very good different" Bree laughs, Kaz takes a deep breath, a little nervous.

They look into each other's eyes as they slowly sway to the music, Bree touches Kaz's collar.

"Kaz, Can I ask you a question? And it's okay if you don't want to answer" Bree says "Oh I think I'll want to answer, yes" Kaz smiles, Bree chuckles slightly.

"Uh...are you one of those people who believes that a kiss doesn't ruin a friendship?" Bree ask with a soft, calm tone in her voice.

"Um...Yes, a kiss doesn't ruin a friendship" Kaz smirks, even though he's only saying what she wants to hear, and also what he wants "good" Bree says calmly approaching him.

Kaz takes a deep breath putting her hair behind her ear, Bree looks at his lips "But..." Kaz says calmly, getting a little closer to her.

"promise you won't walk away from me...if that happens?" Kaz says, Bree hugs his neck "I don't think I could do that not even if I wanted" Bree says calmly.

She breathes quickly with nervousness, Kaz can feel his heart beating fast with anxiety.

Kaz leans towards her, Bree touches the tip of her nose to his, until slowly their lips meet, at first they hesitate to continue, they kiss gently.

Both feeling a slight shiver, slowly they give in to the kiss, Kaz puts his hand gently on Bree's face and she holds the collar of his shirt tightly.

Bree leans closer towards Kaz, with a feeling of relief, as if this were right, Kaz puts his arms around Bree, not wanting her to pull away, feeling fulfilled.

Bree puts her hand on Kaz's chest and with his arms around her she feels safe for some reason.

They stop to breathe but Bree pulls Kaz into a soft and more passionate kiss, he hugs her waist, and they both smile into the kiss.

Bree and Kaz stay at it for a while, they kiss, talk a little and go back to cuddling and kissing, swearing that this won't ruin their friendship.

But they forgot one detail, Skylar, who is the only one on the team who is sober, saw them together.

......................................................................

Grace is on the roof of the house eating a chocolate bar when Adam comes up to her.

"Oh there you are, Teddy Bear!" Adam sits next to her, she smiles when she sees him "Hey Adam! Chocolate?" Grace says "Sure!" Adam takes some.

"Why are you here alone, the party is downstairs" Adam says "I'm not in the mood" Grace says "why not?" Adam asks.

"Drew and I had a fight" Grace says "Are you guys done?" Adam asks "what? No! It was just a normal fight" Grace says.

"There's no such thing as a normal fight, that had to happen almost never" Adam says "maybe, I don't know" Grace hugs her knees.

"tell me what's really bothering you?" Adam says "I just don't feel like it's the same with him...Maybe I've changed...I don't know my head hurts" Grace puts her hand on her head.

"Hey do you want to see me do something crazy to make you feel better?" Adam asks laughing "like what?" Grace smiles.

Adam looks around and sees a tattoo stall "over there" Adam points out, Grace laughs "a tattoo? Of what?" Grace says "whatever you want!" Adam says.

"you're crazy!" Grace says "No, just drunk, come on!" Adam takes her hand and they leave.

......................................................................

Meanwhile everyone continues to cheer for Chase, Nick gets up.

"You're dead!" Nick says he threatens to go towards Chase, who gets ready but Harper appears in the way and uses molecularkinesis to lifting Nick off the ground by his neck, everyone gasps in surprise.

"Seriously dude, go find something better to do" Harper says and throws Nick onto a nearby couch Chase smiles at her.

"Wwooaah!" Everyone screams cheering, Harper runs to Chase and he picks her up as she kisses him, everyone cheers.

Chase puts her down, Harper hugs his neck "That's my girl!" Chase says, Harper smiles "Did you hear airhead? I'm his girl!" Harper tells Nick, he rolls his eyes, he leaves angry.

Harper and Chase laugh, the music gets louder and everyone keeps dancing.

Harper hugs Chase tighter and he looks down at her, and she looks at him in the eyes, Chase gently rocks her to the rhythm of the music while looking into her eyes with a smile, Harper also smiles blushing.

Chase leans his forehead against hers, Harper puts her hands on his shoulders, Chase chuckles lightly for no reason which causes Harper to do the same.

Chase holds her chin and leans in kissing her gently, he tastes beer on her lips, and it's weird but he likes it.

"I love you" Chase says he kisses her again "I love you so much" Harper says, Chase smiles and kisses her more firmly this time, Harper returns the kiss feeling her whole body heat up, she moves her hands up to his neck.

Chase still holding her chin, gently using his thumb to pull her lower lip down, giving him space to put his tongue in her mouth, Harper lets him do it but she doesn't hold back a light laugh in the middle of the kiss.

Harper breaks the kiss to breathe, letting out a light sigh, at this point they practically forget about everything else in the world.

Harper kisses Chase again, a passionate but soft and warm kiss, their lips move in perfect sync against each other.

Harper's hands don't know whether to stay on his chest or hug his neck, Chase breaks the kiss to breathe, looking into her eyes, with Harper just feeling his heavy breathing.

"I want to marry you" Chase says, pulling her closer gently by the waist "Good joke" Harper chuckles and leans towards him wanting to kiss him again, he backs away.

"I'm not joking" Chase says, Harper pushes him away a little in surprise "what?" Harper asks, Chase cups her face gently caressing her cheek.

"Harper, will you marry me?" Chase asks firmly, you can barely even tell he's drunk the way he says it.

"Uh..." Harper is speechless, she looks Chase in the eyes trying to understand what's happening, she doesn't know if he's saying that because he's drunk, or if because he's drunk he's saying something he wanted to say for a while.

"So what do you say?" Chase smiles "Chase...it's crazy!" Harper says "so what?" Chase says "it's crazy!" Harper says "I don't care" Chase says.

"we're drunk " Harper says "I love you!" Chase he says firmly, Harper remains confused and slightly scared that he seems to be serious, but she's also too drunk to know for sure.

"will you marry me?" Chase says, gently brushing hair out of her face, Harper sighs, she was certainly not in a position to answer such an important question at the moment, so this would be an answer that would generate possible regret.

"yes!" Harper he says getting closer to him, she holds his face gently

They smile at each other and kiss slowly and passionately.

The two of them being so close to each other in a crowded place was making them both sweat, but the heat only made the kisses better.

Chase puts his hand on one of her shoulders and pushes the sleeve of her jacket, Harper breaks the kiss and lets Chase take off her jacket slowly as he looks her in the eyes.

He holds her jacket with one hand and her hand with the other and Chase begins to guide her through the crowd to the first private place they see.

......................................................................

✨✨

Back to the next day, everyone on the team is hungover.

Adam is trying to find a way to get rid of that tattoo, Grace is trying to make up with Drew, Leo and Oliver are fighting a headache.

Skylar is debating whether or not she should ask Bree about what happened with her and Kaz last night, and Bree and Kaz have so far been unable to have a normal conversation with each other again.

......................................................................

That afternoon Melody invited Harper for a snack at a small cafe in the mall, they talked for a long time, but Harper was thoughtful

She stirred her spoon in her ice cream cup, Melody notices "Harper, are you okay?" Melody says "yes, why?" Harper says "you look tired and confused" Melody says, Harper thinks.

"you're good" Harper says "What happened?" Melody says "It's Just that...I'm feeling confused about how I feel about something, something that happened to me and Chase" Harper says "well, You can tell me" Melody says.

Harper sighs "there was this party, a college party..." Harper says "oh boy" Melody says "and Chase, got drunk" Harper says.

"Chase!?" Melody says with surprise "it was the first and last time he drank" Harper says "but what about you?" Melody says, Harper is silent for a second "no I would never do that" Harper says, Melody frowns.

"Anyway, there was a moment when he said he wanted to marry me...At first I thought it was just nonsense that he was saying because of the drink and the moment, but he insisted, and I don't know, it seems like he means It" Harper says trying to remember.

"and what did you say?" Melody says "well, I said yes, but the next day he didn't remember anything so" Harper says.

"Did you say yes!?" Melody says "that's the thing, I don't know what to think and I don't know if I should talk to him about it" Harper says "You were drunk, it wasn't serious" Melody says.

"I didn't say I was" Harper says "daughter, I'm not stupid" Melody says "Fair" Harper says.

"but what's bothering you?" Melody says "I don't know, I never thought about it, I mean I thought he and I would get married one day but it would be something for the future, but at that moment when he asked and I saw the situation up close, I was scared but... the next day when he said he didn't even remember it gave me a huge relief but I was also..." Harper thinks "Upset?" Melody says.

"maybe, I was wondering if maybe part of me, as crazy as it is, wished that had been true" Harper says thoughtfully.

"Harper, do you want to marry Chase?" Melody smirk "that's what I've been asking myself ever since...And more importantly, does he really want to marry me?" Harper says.

"wow you guys are 19 and 18, it's...woah!" Melody says, Harper laughs "I know, but Chase doesn't usually say things without thinking, it means he thought about it" Harper says.

"well, If you say something to him maybe you will pressure him" Melody says "You're right" Harper plays with her fingers.

"I'm so proud of you" Melody says, Harper looks at her "for what exactly? Because I just told you I got drunk with my boyfriend at a party, where is your pride in it" Harper asks, Melody laughs.

"I'm not talking about the party, which by the way I have a lot of questions..." Melody says.

"It's just that, You didn't make the same mistakes I did, you found real love at such a young age..." Melody smiles.

"You're only 19 and you've already found a good boy that you love and that he loves you too that you know you want to spend the rest of your life with" Melody says "I'm not sure" Harper says "It's normal to be afraid, my dear, but trust me... you're on the right path" Melody says taking Harper's hand.

"I guess I just got lucky, I mean every other aspect of my life was so difficult, that maybe I needed something easy to make it worth it" Harper says "You did it, and Harper, you're an intelligent and determined girl, you know how to handle your life and I really admire that, I wasn't like that at your age, I'm proud of that" Melody says.

"What were you like?" Harper says, Melody sighs "Very, immature and irresponsible, so much so that I married the first rich guy that came my way just because he treated me well and I was stupid enough to think that was love" Melody says.

"I barely knew him to be honest, but I stopped looking at it as something completely bad because if it weren't for that you wouldn't be here" Melody says, Harper smiles, Melody approaches.

"but back to you and Chase, if he really means he wants to marry you, he'll ask sooner or later" Melody grabs Harper's face.

"it's still scary to think about...But thanks, mom " Harper chuclkes nervously, Melody hugs her.

......................................................................

Adam approaches Chase who is at the kitchen counter reading.

"Yesterday was crazy, right?" Adam says "Don't even tell me" Chase laughs "I know, About that, did you propose to Harper right?" Adam opens the fridge.

Chase lifts his head from the book and turns the chair towards Adam "Excuse me?" Chase says "did you do what you wanted to do yesterday?" Adam asks.

"Adam what are you talking about?" Chase says "Oh you don't remember" Adam says "No!" Chase says.

"Well in that case it's better to treat it as if it never happened, bye!" Adam tries to leave "Adam!" Chase says.

"Okay, yesterday you came to me and told me that you wanted to ask Harper to marry you" Adam says "WHAT!?" Chase says he puts his hand on his head.

"yup, and I think you did it, cuz after you guys left that closet you crushed the can of the guy who hit on her and you called her your fiancée" Adam says, Chase stares at Adam, wide-eyed and speechless.

"My fiancée!?" Chase says almost breathlessly, in disbelief "Yup" Adam says.

"No! No! What did I do!?" Chase puts his hand on his forehead "that's why she looked weird today" Chase says.

"Chase, everyone looked weird today, Kaz and Bree barely speak to each other, they just look at each other weirdly, And I don't even recognize my back in the mirror anymore" Adam says, Chase is in disbelief.

"I proposed to her, drunk, in party, in the middle of a makeout, no no no no" Chase lowers his head on the table embarrassed remembering everything.

Makes it clear that he imagined this moment millions of times, and it was never like this, in his head it would be a perfect, romantic and decent moment, not what actually happened.

"Relax Chase it could have been worse!" Adam says patting Chase's back "how could it be worse?" Chase says "She could have said no" Adam says.

Chase lifts his head from the table "wait! She said yes!" Chase remembers excitedly "I think so" Adam says.

"She said yes!" Chase says scared "Chase I'm confused, are you celebrating or regretting?" Adam says.

"I know, I have a lot of things going through my head and a lot of emotions at the same time, and I think I'm going to throw up at any moment" Chase says scared.

"Grace said it's normal for this to happen to someone with a hangover" Adam says "how does she know?" Chase says "she saw the Hangover movies" Adam says, Chase rolls his eyes.

"so are you and Harper engaged or not?" Adam says "No! We're not! It's insane" Chase says getting up.

"But what if she thinks you are?" Adam says "she doesn't think so, it's just... if we don't talk about it she'll think I don't remember and we'll put an end to this" Chase says, Adam thinks.

"wait a minute!" Adam says, Chase to "Did you really want to propose?" Adam says, Chase swallows "No, I never thought of that" Chase says with his voice cracking and he turns and walks over to the HyperLift.

......................................................................

At Mission Command, Chase is working on a device, Newton is at the cyber desk.

"Screwdriver" Chase says tapping lightly on the table, Newton takes the screwdriver with his mouth and drops it in Chase's hand "good boy" Chase says he caress the cat.

Harper leaves the HyperLift, holding a mug of tea "look, I made tea for you, I think it might help with your hangover, I drank it, it helped" Harper says, Chase smiles "thank you" Chase says taking the mug.

Harper kisses his cheek and picks Newton up, Chase looks at her.

"Look, I may not remember much but...I know I had a lot of fun!" Chase smile, Harper laughs "Me too" Harper says, Chase sighs.

"but I think there's something we need to talk about... right?" Chase says looking at the mug "Uh I don't know" Harper looks away at Newton.

"Harp, Adam told me about....the proposal" Chase sighs, Harper takes a deep breath "I know it wasn't real, relax" Harper says.

"did you want it to be?" Chase ask "Honestly I don't know" Harper says "it's crazy right" Chase laughs "a lot, we're not ready for this...I think" Harper says.

"Why not?" Chase asks, Harper looks at him "You were really thinking about that? because I know you that wasn't the first thing that came to your mind for nothing" Harper says, Chase sighs.

"Of course I did, I think about it all the time" Chase says, Harper takes a step back in surprise.

"look, I'm sorry I never should have proposed and left you in that situation, I shouldn't have even played that drinking game in the first place, I'm so sorry" Chase says.

"It's not your fault, it could happen, lucky for us we weren't in Vegas because at that point we would have been married" Harper chuckles gently, Chase smiles.

"Why didn't you ever tell me that you think about this so much?" Harper asks "I'm afraid I'll scare you, like I assume I did last night" Chase says, Harper smiles slightly, Chase looks at her thoughtful.

"I don't get it, if you don't think we're ready... why were you upset when I said I didn't remember?' Chase aks, Harper shrugs "I wasn't" Harper says, Chase tilts his head doubting.

"Not at all" Harper says clearly lying "Harper" Chase raises his eyebrow, Harper sighs "Okay I confess that when I heard you say that, I was happy, like gosh, is it's marrying you, Chase! but...That just..." Harper says.

"It didn't feel right, huh?" Chase says "Yeah, don't take this the wrong way" Harper says "I understand, I feel the same way" Chase says.

"It doesn't mean I don't want to marry you, but I just don't want to right now" Harper says "I know, you said yes but you didn't mean yes, i get it" Chase says.

"You proposed but you didn't want to propose" Harper says "I think so" Chase looks down.

"I didn't want it to be like this, I want it to be perfect, at the right time!" Chase says "I know, and whenever the moment comes, we feel like it's right." Harper says.

"But when will it be?" Chase asks "I don't know" Harper says "No, I mean, I'm ready..." Chase says, Harper looks at him.

"when you're ready, when will that be?" Chase asks walking up to her and Newton.
