Nikolas: {Walk in the courtyard of Kelly's} Isn't your hand cold?

Gia: No, not that cold.

Nikolas: So, do you like being engaged? Hmm?

Gia: Do you think shouting it from the rooftops would be a little much?

Nikolas: Well, you can shout anything you want after we tell Lucky. Come on. {They go inside}

Gia: You know Lucky's still asleep.

Nikolas: Not for long. Grab a table?

Gia: Yeah, sure. {He gives her a quick kiss and then leaves} Excuse me. Is this table open?

Waitress: Sure.

Gia: I am desperate for some coffee.

Waitress: You got it.

Gia: Let me save you some steps. {Walks over to the counter}

Waitress: Ok.

Janine: Nice rock.

Gia: Thank you.

Janine: Hmm. Guy wouldn't spring for a diamond, huh?

Gia: Well, diamonds are so ordinary, but emeralds -- have you ever seen a more beautiful engagement ring?

Janine: Hmm. Just make sure you take him for all he's worth, honey.

Gia: I think we could use some coffee over here.

Lucky: All right, all right. Whatever it is, it better be good.

Gia: Did you work all night?

Lucky: Yes. Yes, I did.

Nikolas: Well, I guess that he had nothing better to do.

Lucky: Thanks, bro.

Gia: Your eyes must be really tired.

Woman: {Walks by their table} Congratulations.

Gia: Thank you.

Lucky: Is it your birthday or something?

Nikolas: You see? He's a little dim in the morning.

Lucky: All right, ok, ok. You know what? Here's the deal. You either tell me now or I'm going to go back upstairs.

Gia: You may kiss my hand. {Holds out her hand}

Lucky: Oh. Wow.

Gia: Nikolas asked me to marry him.

Lucky: Congratulations.

Nikolas: Yeah, well, it took you long enough.

Lucky: Why aren't you shouting it from the rooftops, then?

Nikolas: Oh, believe me, that's -- that's -- that's the plan.

Lucky: Well, you guys definitely have enough to celebrate, that's for sure.

Nikolas: Well, we've all come a long way.

Lucky: We figured out what counts and what doesn't count. And we held on to the good stuff, and that's what matters.

Nikolas: That's right. After everything we've been through, nothing will be the same.

Gia: Thank god.

Lucky: It'll all be better.

Nikolas: You be my best man?

Lucky: Try stopping me, big brother.

~*~

Lucky: Elope.

Gia: Excuse me?

Lucky: Yeah. Save everybody a lot of trouble.

Gia: This is the face of deception marrying the Cassadine prince. Elope? No, I think not.

Nikolas: I know that I'm probably going to regret this, but what exactly did you have in mind?

Gia: Well, I haven't thought about it too much, but a cathedral is definitely a given. I mean, the bigger, the better. And -- I don't know -- something simple for my gown, like maybe a 10-foot train or -- actually, 15. And -- and then we could do something completely different for the flowers -- something tropical -- and then bring out the colors of the bridesmaids' gowns --

Nikolas: Why don't you just get back to me when you've thought it through, huh?

Gia: Oh, don't worry. I will.

Nikolas: All right, little man. The coffee's on me, huh?

Lucky: You're damn straight it is.

Nikolas: All right. {He goes to pay for the coffee}

Gia: Isn't he wonderful?

Lucky: Hmm. Yeah. I just can't wait till Elizabeth gets back, you know? We can all get together and start over completely.

Gia: Are you sure you're all right?

Lucky: Yeah. Yeah, you know -- Helena doesn't have any power over me anymore. I'm starting to get my mind back, you know? Starting to remember things -- like when you were my friend. I really appreciated that, Gia. Thank you.

Gia: Doesn't it feel like some big dream? I mean, Nikolas shutting me out, me getting close to his father, and --

Lucky: That's scary stuff.

Gia: {Nikolas listens} Stavros let us go at the end, but could you imagine having a man like Stavros for a father? I mean, how do you shake something like that?
