    ... it good news?" Chelsea asked impatiently.

"It is."

Momentarily Connor looked at Chelsea as if to ask what was going on.

"It's Sophie," Chelsea explained to him. "She and Lance have had a talk and its good news."

"I'm so happy for you both, Sophie," Chelsea said switching her attention back to the phone. "Connor is too. He really liked Lance. You make a lovely couple."

"There's more," Sophie continued. "We had a good talk about how we feel about each other. And then Lance asked me to marry him, and I said yes."

Chelsea squealed with excitement and Connor almost veered off the freeway in surprise.

"Oh my god Sophie that's wonderful news. Congratulations to you both," Chelsea looked at Connor who was in something of a state of shock. "Connor says congratulations too but he almost caused a pile up when he heard the news so I'll get him to call you later."

"If it hadn't been for you Chelsea, this wouldn't have happened. Lance and I can't thank you enough."

"You two were meant for each other. Anyone can see that," Chelsea replied modestly.

"I know we don't know each other very well but I wanted to ask you a really big favour."

"Of course."

"Would do me the honour of being my bridesmaid? It would mean a lot to me, and to Lance."

Chelsea was already getting emotional but Sophie's request tipped her over the edge. Connor slowed the car to pull up in a service station forecourt. He put his hand on her knee to comfort her while Chelsea composed ...

"And could you ask Connor if he would mind giving me away," Sophie added. "I mean, I know he's already got rid of me but it would mean a lot to have his blessing too."

Chelsea looked at Connor who smiled and nodded.

"He says 'yes'."

"Thank you both so much. The wedding is going to be in the next month before Lance goes to Europe," Sophie added.

"Just tell us when and we'll be there," Chelsea reassured Sophie.

"I should go," Sophie explained. "I'm standing here in the restroom of the restaurant. I just couldn't wait to tell you. But I'd better get back now, before Lance thinks I'm the runaway fiancé. Can I call you tomorrow?"

"You can call me any time, Sophie. And send our congratulations to Lance too."

"I will. Bye..."

The line went dead and Sophie wiped away the tears from her eyes.

"You knew that was going to happen, didn't you?" Connor said astonished.

"I knew that Sophie and Lance really liked each other, because they both told me they did," Chelsea replied. "But Sophie couldn't tell Lance how she felt about him for fear of rejection and Lance wouldn't tell Sophie because he thought he wasn't good enough for her. So I played cupid. I didn't know that Lance was going to propose though."

"Do you think they're ready to get married? I mean they've only been dating a few months really."

"I think you know when you've met ...
