In the words of the Hero, Dion:

It was ~5:05 PM The first day of April, In the year of our Lord, Two-Thousand Six. It was a bright, clear (very hot) day in Sunny Orlando, Florida.
[The part of the Dashing, Debonaire man will be played by the Delightful Dion.]
[The part of the Sweet, Soon-to-be engaged woman will be played by the Supple Stevie]
[The parts of the factuly and staff will be played by the faculty and staff of Florida Hospital Orthopaedic Wing.]

Our scene opens up inside of a hospital at the nurses' station, Dion (with wrapped hand) approaches the counter...
>Nurse1- Hello, Stevie's back with a patient right now, do you want me to call her up here?>Dion- No, that's quite alright, i'll just wait for her up here
[Nurse1 picks up phone, dials extension, and talks.]
>Nurse1- Hey Stevie, Ken Bradley is here, and wants to talk to you. [pause] No, really, he wants to talk to all of the staff up here, and it's your turn, just come up whenever you finish whatever you're doing
[Dion looks puzzled, and asks]
>Dion- Who's Ken Bradley?
[Nurses giggle a bit, Nurse2 replies]
>Nurse2- Ken Bradly is the head administrator of the hospital
>Nurse3- Heh, he was thinking that she had another boyfriend
[Nurses giggle a bit more]
>Nurse1- she'll be up here in a moment
[characters wait around for a few moments]
[Stevie approaches the nurses' station, looking quite puzzled to see Dion]
>Stevie- What're you doing here?
>Dion- I've got something that i want to give you
>Stevie- It couldn't wait for another 3 hours?
[Dion pulls out a Mother-of-pearl colored leather ring box, tied with gold ribbon, and hands it to her]
[Stevie looks more puzzled, and face grows into more anticipation]
>Nurse2- (to Dion) Hey, You're supposed to get down on one knee
[Stevie unwrapps the ringbox with great expectations, then suddenly becomes awash with a look of dissippointment]
Stevie- (in an upset, slow tone) it's just a note that says April Fools!
[Stevie shows box to Nurses, and to camera]
~Open ring box with loop of gold ribbon in ring slot, with printed words saying "April Fools!" written on it
[rest of staff look at Dion unimpressed by seemingly lousy joke, Male nurse in back starts laughing]
[Stevie turns to Dion, with growing anger at being both made a fool of, and being embarrased at work]
[Dion goes down onto bended knee, and pulls real ring out of wrapped hand's bandage]
>Dion- (after presenting ring) Will you marry me, for real?
[Stevie and closeby Nurses all look very shocked]
[Stevie looks at Dion, very shocked, and more puzzled than ever]
>Stevie- Uh- Of Course!
>Nurse1- (to Dion) is this for real?
>Dion- (with smirk) yep, sure is
[Stevie hugs Dion]
>Nurses- I can't believe it, that's crazy
>Male Nurse in Back- So what happened?
[Nurse2 filles in Male nurse, Male nurse laughs hysterially]
>Stevie- (to Dion) you are soo mean! You hadta do all this and embarrass me at work?
>Dion- Yep.
>Stevie- (to Dion) how long have you been planning this, how long have you had the ring?
>Dion- About a month, month-and-a-half
[Stevie hits Dion]
>Dion- Oww.
>Nurse3- Wow, i would never be able to keep something that big from anyone for a month

~FastForward to Dion leaving the hospital, and making a call on his cell phone.
>Dion- (in sad voice) Mom? [pause] She... said no... [pause, motherly tones of consolation are heard]
[pause]
>Dion- (in vibrant tone) APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!
~Fade to black
