"Oh, there's the two lovebirds. Good morning you two." Basil says as he watches Tom and Diana.

"Morning, Bas. What's the word?" Tom asks his friend.

"I can't seem to get a date right now." Basil says forlornly. "I'm awfully bored."

"Maybe women have finally figured out that you're not worth their time, Basil." Diana says acidly.

"Tea or coffee with breakfast Diana?" Jane asks as she comes over to the couple.

"We will both have tea." Diana says waving her left hand between herself and Tom making her ring glint before she places her left hand prominently on the table.

"Diana, is that an engagement ring?" Jane asks. The whole dining room goes quiet. They all heard Jane's question. Jane is never quiet.

"Why yes, it is Jane. Tom proposed last night and I accepted." Diana says calmly.

"Oh, congratulations! Now you won't be living in sin anymore!" Jane cries loudly.

"Yes, that's the operative point, Jane. Not living in sin is far more important than my happiness which had nothing at all to do with my decision." Diana says sarcastically.

"I heard cries of jubilation in here. What's going on?" Harvey asks suspiciously.

"Oh god," Diana groans in dejection at Harvey's presence.

"Tom and Diana are getting married!" Jane cries happily.

"Oh no, that means they get to be even more soppy than usual. How revolting!" Harvey exclaims.

"Oh Harvey, you're so unromantic. Tom and Diana love each other." Jane says defending the couple.

"And let's get one thing straight you disgusting little man: what we share is not revolting. It's natural." Diana says as she stands up. "We make a strong couple and we make each other happy."

"Well, at least I don't have to find you a double room since you're already in one. Don't do anything vulgar." Harvey says as he walks out.

"We should take Jeffrey and the kids out for dinner and tell them our news." Tom says as he sips his tea.

"That sounds like a good idea. They're all coming back here tonight, aren't they?" Diana asks as she smacks her spoon against the shell of her soft boiled egg.

"Yes, Emma and Charlie will be here about 3:30, after school. Where's your toast?" Tom says as he sniffs his omelette gingerly. "Jane what is in this omelette?"

"It's a cheese omelette I believe, Tom. Why do you ask?" Jane asks as she comes over.

"No reason, I just wanted to know. Thanks Jane." Tom says as he finally takes a bite. He promptly spits it out. "That's disgusting!"

"What do you mean?" Diana asks as she reaches over and takes a bite of his omelette. "Oh God, it tastes like old, dirty socks. Jenny take this omelette back and get Tom something else and find my toast."

"What's wrong with the omelette?" Jenny asks as she picks up Tom's plate.

"It tastes like old socks and it's the texture of old rubber." Tom says plainly. "I'll just have toast and jam."

"I'll be back with two servings of toast then." Jenny says as she walks off with Tom's plate.

"What are we going to do today?" Diana asks as she sips her tea and then adds a spoonful of sugar to it.

"I have no idea. What would you like to do?" Tom asks as he spreads jam on his toast.

"I don't know. We could start on that 5,000 piece puzzle you got from Jeffrey for Christmas or we could start that model airplane or ship in a bottle project." Diana says as she has a think.

"That puzzle is going to take forever. It's a giant castle. It's all grey." Tom says glumly.

"I've got a 10,000 piece puzzle of the Venus de Milo we could start." Diana says smiling at Tom.

"That's a better idea. I've always liked that piece of art. Come on then." Tom says cheekily.

"Randy old sod." Diana says limping out of the dining room.

"And that's just the way you like me. If I wasn't like this I wouldn't be as interesting." Tom says catching up with Diana.

"That's simply not true. You are not just an interesting person because you're a randy old man. You're interesting because of who you are."
