When Alison receives a beautiful bouquet of flowers at the hospital, she assumes they're from Aaron and thanks him.

Aaron discovers Chris sent them. Dani invites Chris out to dinner but he turns her down, admitting he has feelings for someone else.

She guesses it's Alison but can't convince him to realize he's fighting a losing cause. Getting a text message supposedly from Alison, Chris hurries to the Lakeview.

Casey's angry when Emily explains that she's not bringing him to the engagement party for Alison and Aaron.

He complains to Dani who finds out about the party and realizes Chris doesn't know. Upset Lily and Mike are taking the girls out again, Luke bursts into the house and demands to take the kids for the night.

He complains that she's bringing a man into their lives and that Mike will eventually leave. Hearing about the engagement party for Aaron and Alison, Lily offers to drop the girls off and the two apologize for their anger.

But when Aaron invites her to stay, she and Holden argue about why she feels a need to be there. As the first toast of the night is made, Chris ignores Susan's request that he leave and hears about the engagement.

Feeling sorry for him, Alison catches up with Chris and apologizes when she realizes how Aaron tricked him. She's taken aback when he admits he thought they had a chance to be together.

Dani tries to take Chris back to her room but he's not interested.
