Clover raised an eyebrow. You hate Captain Crunch. Oh, shit.She wasnt wrong. He despised the shit. He hesitated, holding the box tightly as she reached for it. I, uh, changed my mind? She narrowed her eyes, clearly not buying it. Joker, whats going on? Nothing, he answered. Apparently, he answered too quickly. Give me the box, she said, trying to pry it from his hands but not giving in. Clover… Joker… Realizing he couldnt keep the secret any longer, Joker sighed as he lowered to one knee. He was still clutching the box of cereal like it was his lifeline. Okay, you got me. Theres something I need to ask you. Clover looked puzzled, but then her eyes slowly widened as she realized what was happening. Oh my God, are you… Joker opened the box and pulled out the ring, holding it in the palm of his hand. Clover, will you marry me? Tears filled her eyes as she looked at the stunning diamond, set in a white gold setting. Yes! she screamed at the top of her lungs as she bounced on her toes, holding her hands close to her chest. Of course I will! Just as Clover leaned down and kissed him, the pantry door opened wider, and Zach stood there, staring at them in shock. Whoa, whats going on here? he asked, looking between Joker and Clover. Before either one could answer, Jenelle walked up beside Zach with the rest of the family trailing behind her. What is all the shouting about, she asked, looking into the pantry. Joker chuckled, looking up at Clover, who was still bouncing in place with a smile that wasnt coming off her face for the unforeseeable future. He looked at her family, who were all looking at them. She said yes! Their faces all lit up with excitement as they realized what he meant. Seconds later, the room erupted in cheers and congratulations. Joker stood up, and Clovers dad stepped forward and shook his hand. Welcome to the family, officially, son. Joker grinned, pulling Clover into another kiss. Im the luckiest guy in the world. Clover laughed, leaning into him. And Im the luckiest girl. I cant believe you hid in the pantry with a box of Captain Crunch. Joker chuckled, looking around at their family and friends. Well, its a story well never forget. As they all gathered to celebrate, Joker couldnt help but feel grateful for this crazy, wonderful moment. While it wasnt the romantic moment that he had planned, it was still everything he had hoped for and more.
