"Oh, man, you have no idea I’ve never been this happy before in my life I honestly don’t think I could be any happier," Layton said with a goofy-ass grin on his face

"This is the best news Y’all, we need to celebrate this shit!" Kevin said

"Celebrate what?"

All three of us turned to see Whitley and Courtney standing there The mo it had been doing for the last year

"Uh…" Layton said as he looked at lanced over toward Whitley, who now had her hands on her hips with her head tilted, giving Layton a look Courtney was trying to hold in her laughter as she looked everywhere but at us

"Layton, did you tell them? You promised," Whitley said with a little bit of a whiny voice

"You told Courtney," Layton said

I closed my eyes and waited

"Reed Nickolas Moore, you weren’t supposed to say anything!" Courtney said

I peeked over at Courtney, only to see Whitley staring at her now

"You told Reed?" Whitley asked Courtney

"U all of his friends and planning a party to celebrate," Court said as she pointed to Layton

"Hey!" Layton said as he pointed to Kevin "The party was his idea"

Kevin began laughing as he walked over to Whitley He grabbed her and spun her around "Girl, congratulations Now, let’s get down to business We have a damn party to plan"

Whitley smiled and then looked at me and winked "We have more than one reason to celebrate"

Kevin stepped back and looked around at everyone, stopping at Courtney "Is sos?"

Courtney and I both said, "No!"

Whitley grabbed Courtney’s hand and held it up, showing the engage Court and I had decided not to tell anyone at the barbeque yesterday

"Holy shit" Kevin turned and looked at me with a stunned expression on his face His irl?"

Courtney started laughing as she rabbed her and pulled her next to me "I’m afraid I am, dude You moved too slow"

Kevin looked down at Courtney and then back at me He shook his head and stuck out his hand "Da ti

He leaned in toward my ear and whispered, "I’m so happy for you, Reed" He slapped me on the back and stepped back, and then he looked down at Courtney Kevin pulled her into a hug and said, "Dao, but only because I love this guy like a brother I’ether"
