summary: y/n's parents don't approve of her relationship with racecar driver dayton white, but when he proposes a little deal is made. 

The hot sun blared down on Y/N's head, beads of sweat rolling down her face due to the sun. Oh, and her parents. Both Mr. and Mrs. L/N, very strict and unloving, stood behind their only daughter staring ahead at the track. She really wished her boyfriend could keep his stupid mouth shut. While he could do many things with his talented mouth, one of them was not being able to stop talking when it was needed.

"What the hell is this, Y/N?" Her father asked. Y/N stared down at Dayton, who was on one knee, holding out the black velvet box, with a face full of horror as he stared at her parents. She wanted to melt into the ground right there on the sidewalk because this was never how she imagined it would be. Her parents had never approved of Dayton, but they still let her date him, hoping she'd realize that he was a horrible man who wouldn't be able to provide for her, who wouldn't love her, and who would leave her in the dust after he had his fill. However, Y/N just felt more drawn to him, falling deeper and deeper in love with her sweet boyfriend each day. Dayton was truly the best man she knew, always being there to support her, but also being able to open up to her about his problems as well. He was just as enamored of her as she was of him, but clearly, her parents couldn't see how good he was for her, and simply judged him because he didn't have a boring office job as they wanted.

Y/N stared at Dayton, who was still on one knee. He hadn't even been able to ask her, as her parents came to the park right when he was about to speak. "I'm asking my girlfriend to marry me, Mr. L/N. I love her so much, I know she loves me too, and I want to make her my wife." Dayton said, standing up. Y/N grasped onto his arm, internally thinking about how much this was like Taylor Swift's "Love Story".

Mr. L/N scoffed, and shook his head saying, "Did you even think about asking us for her hand?" Dayton knew that both of her parents were fuming, but he had had it at that point with them. Y/N was nearly thirty goddamn years old, but they still controlled her like a marionette, from choosing what clothes were deemed "appropriate" enough to wear to physically tracking her at all times.

"Actually, sir, I did think about that, but I already knew what you think of me, and that you would say no. Y/N is an adult, and I think she can decide whether she wants to marry me or not, because frankly I don't give a damn what you think about me." A small gasp left Mrs. L/N's mouth, a hand still covering it from her shock. "So, Y/N, baby, what do you say?"

Dayton got down on one knee again, holding his girlfriend's hand. "Will you marry me?" Y/N's tears fell fast down her face, both from his declaration of love and him being so brave against his parents. Honestly, at this point she didn't understand why he hadn't just left her for all the problems she caused. He always had to get her home at a certain time, she was always cancelling due to her parent's insistence, and when they first started dating, she was a virgin, which she thought would scare him off. But it didn't. No, Dayton had stayed loyal to Y/N for four years, even with the endless gorgeous girls throwing themselves at his feet and her terrifying parents. Nodding her head wildly, she brought herself down to her knees and cupped Dayton's face. She leaned into him, going to kiss his lips, when she felt a sharp pain at her scalp.
