Joanna and Luke are best friends. Joanna and Luke have being best friends since they were babies. Joanna and Luke have spent most of their lives living out of each others pockets. Joanna and Luke are madly in lovewith each other. Joanna and Luke have no idea how the other feels.

Friday 8th June 2007

I had no idea. Luke exclaims to Joanna as she shows him her brand new, extremely expensive diamond ring. Three simple large diamonds set in a thick band of silver gold.

I know, I really wasn't expecting it either. But he's a great guy and he's going to look after me.

Yeh, Josh is a great guy.

Are you going to congratulate me then or just stare at me?

Oh come here, congrats Jo-Jo. You're all grown up now. Engaged, how mature of you! Luke pulls Joanna into a bear hug and squeezes her tight until she squeals for him to stop. It's the same hug he has given her for nearly twenty-nine years.

Yep, I rang her as soon as Josh asked. Oh she has come over all, all you know, control freakish. She thinks I should wear white but I think I will look fat.

Well you'd look lovely in a bloody bin liner, to be honest. But no panic, you've only just got engaged, there is no rush with colour schemes. Luke pulls two glasses from the cupboard above the sink and places them down on the counter top.

Actually, we don't have too long. Josh and I don't want one of those lengthy engagements. So, as soon as I had rang Mum, we rang the Church and booked! Luke! You've just poured half the bottle onto the floor, did you know? Luke springs back to life and grabs a cloth from by the sink.

Date! You've booked already. When? He asks mopping up the red liquid into a fresh dishcloth.

7th July! I know, really soon but we thought why the hell not. I mean we both know that this is what we want, so why wait? Of course, Mother nearly fell of her chair when we told her and I think she has already rang the florists and caterers. Dad seems to think that his band will be playing at the reception but
