Only unfortunately before Robert can get his proposal out, Aaron's brought a minor problem with him - a bound and gagged Lachlan White in the boot of his car.
Aaron was left with no choice after overhearing Lachlan threaten Robert with falsely claiming he sexually abused him.
However, recent spoiler pictures revealed that Aaron would soon be put in danger as he desperately tries to protect Robert.
Blurry teaser images released by producers of the ITV show reveal the Dingle (Danny Miller) submerged in dark blue waves with a seriously scared expression on his face.

It marks the start of a gripping week for the soap which actor John Middleton, who plays vicar Ashley Thomas, vowed would go down in soap history.
Viewers were left on the edge of their seats after producers released a nail-biting trailer revealing that at least one cast member would die in the Dales.
Last week on Good Morning Britain, John gushed about the impending drama and said: “We have done something important.
“We have done TV that will be talked about in a few years time.
“It’s TV people will remember and say ‘do you remember when Emmerdale did that?’
“You will want to see every episode.”

Officially, there are eight cast members with the Grim Reaper lingering at their door, and all are at risk.
John's character, Ashley, has been confirmed to leave the show so he is a prime candidate.
Meanwhile, Ashley is suffering from vascular dementia and fans will see the scenes run alongside those showing him forgetting the name of his own daughter, Dotty, on her Christening day.
He added to GMB reporter Richard Arnold: "It's quite extraordinary the way we have filmed it.
"The drama is in the scripts."
