**Lane's Pov**

"Ok, so we have marshmallows, chocolate bars, graham crackers, and Reece's. Do we need anything else?" I asked Taylor.

"Yeah hold on." He sprinted away.

I decided to check my phone.

I haven't checked any social media in so long.

I went on my instagram... 6,390 follow requests?!

I was a private user so only my friends followed me..

I looked in my activity thing, and there were a ton of people tagging me in pictures of Hayes and I kissing.

Shit!

I clicked one one, and it was a video.

The video!

Those fucking girls posted it!

All the comments called me ugly, slutty, fat, not deserving of Hayes.

I wasn't even dating him!

I started to break down and cry.

Taylor came running back, and I tried to wipe away my tears, and make it look like I wasn't crying, but he saw past it, and wrapped me in a hug.

"Laney, don't listen to those jealous girls." Somehow he knew.

He wiped my tears with his thumb.

"But it's all true." I cried more.

"No, shhhhh, Laney, it's not. Don't cry babe." He rubbed my back.

I composed myself. Big girls don't cry.

I started laughing at nothing. It's a weird habit that I have. When I cry, and want to feel better, I just laugh.

"You ok?" He looked at me strange.

I apologized and explained it to him.

"Don't be sorry. I makes you who you are." He said and pushed the cart towards the check out.

"What did you need to run off and get?" I asked.

He took a huge box of condoms out of the cart.

My eyes went wide. Obviously, I'm not prude, but I'd never really touched a condom, not one that I was using anyway.

"For you and Matt. Or you and I." He smirked.

I shoved him and laughed.

We checked out, and the cashier lady gave me a smile when she scanned the box of 200 condoms.

Taylor put his arm around me.

"Tay!" I squinted.

He laughed, and grabbed the bags.

We walked out to the car, and put the bags in the backseat.

I hopped into the passenger seat, and put my feet up on the dashboard, again, to get comfy.

Tay got in the drivers seat, and started up the car.

I took his phone and plugged it in to the car.

I scrolled through his music and laughed when I saw "American Girl".

I played it, and we jammed out.

"I am an American Giiirl! Hot bodied and I'm ready to goo!!!" We sang and laughed.

After that song, I played "Don't Stop Believin" By journey.

"Just A city boy! Born and raised in south Detroit! He took the midnight train goin anywheeeeereee." I sang to Taylor.

"Just a small town girl! Livin in a loney wooorld. She took the midnight train goin anywheeeeereee!!" He sang to me.

We took turns doing the verses and I was the guitarist while he sang, and he was the drummer while I sang

We did the chorus together.

This was so childish, yet so fun!

We eventually got back to the condo.

I opened the door, and everyone was in the living room.

"Delaney, can we talk?" Matthew said sternly.

I immediately felt my stomach drop, and I looked at Hayes.

"Y-Yeah." I stuttered, and followed him into his room.

"I saw the video of you and Hayes." He said.

"I know, I know! Matthew listen, I'm so sorry and those fans were being so rude and I just thought it wo-"

He kissed me, stopping me from

words, and rested his hand under my chin.

"I'm not mad, baby." He smiled.

"You're not? Why'd you want to talk to me?" I asked.

"I wanted to tell you not to let what our fans say get to you, and...I know we are young. Very young, but I want to be with you and stay with you for the rest of my life. We are too early in our relationship to get married, but I want to give you this promise ring."

He kneeled on one knee, and took out a tiny pale pink box, and opened it, revealing a gorgeous diamond ring.

"Matthew! Yes!" I cried, and crashed my lips against his.

"Look, babe." He smiled, and turned the ring around, revealing an engravement in the inside of the ring.

"Delaney and Matthew Forever."

"Oh, Matthew, thank you, baby!" I said, trying to dry my eyes.

"I love you, Delaney." He smiled.

"I love you." I said back.

He slipped the gold ring onto my ring finger, and kissed my hand.

We walked back out to the living room.

"LET ME SEE BITCH!" Katy screamed, and ran over to me.

He must've told them.

She admired the dazzling ring, and told Nash that It was his turn next.

All the guys congratulated us.

We all went into the kitchen and prepared the graham crackers and chocolate for s'mores.

"Grab your guitar." Taylor whispered in my ear.

I shrugged, and went down to the basement to grab my guitar.

I took it out of the case, and grabbed my capo and my favorite pick.

I quickly changed into a sweatshirt, and just kept my yoga shorts on.

As I walked up the stairs, I heard voices..and moaning...

I thought everyone was outside...

I peaked my head over to where the noises were coming from, and immediately screamed.
