Ann's POV;
H: goodmorning my beautiful gorgeous girlfriend god I like calling you my girlfriend
A: good morning my amazing perfect boyfriend. Wowza, I like calling you my boyfriend too. Maybe we should keep it that way?
H: sounds like a plan! I'm taking you on a date today, we're going to get pizza and then we're going to play laser-tag hope you don't mind.
A: okay Mr. Bossy pants. what time are we going?
H: 1 Johnnie is taking us, but don't say anything about it being a date I haven't told anyone yet and we're not until the trip is over
A: I know. What do you think they'll say when we do tell them?
H: idk. But my family loves you so they won't mind, and plus we were really close. They had to have seen this coming.
A: true. And my mom loves you too, and I do remember her saying something about having a feeling we'll be more than friends. But what about your fans? They'll hate me!
H: they won't hate you. They love you too, they loved and wanted us together since they first saw the way you were when we went on younow. And if they don't want us together they'll have to suck it up because I want to be with you for a long time.
A: I want to be with you for a long time too!! But are you sure?
H: positive, why wouldn't I be?
A: idk I think too much when I'm neverous or scared.
H: I've noticed. Now start getting ready for our date!
I did what he said, I looked at the time. 12:00 pm, I have just enough time to get in the shower and finsh getting ready. I picked out blue jean shorts and a white v-neck that wasn't too low-cut. I took a quick shower and finished getting ready. I was ready at 12:45, I put on my vans and walked downstairs.
"And where are you going?" My mom asked as I sat on the couch.
"I'm going to get pizza and laser-tag with Hayes.." I said nervously.
"Is it a date?" She smiled wide, I guess she didn't care if we did date.
"No, we're going as friends" her smile quickly faded.
"I'm here"
I read the text from him. "Hayes is here, I'm leaving now, love you" I told her, standing up from the couch, kissing her cheek.
"Have fun-don't forget your key! Love you" She said. I grabbed it on my way out, and walked to the Johnnie's truck.
"Hey" I said getting in.
"Hey" Hayes said, running his hand through his hair.
"Are y'all ready to go?" Johnnie asked, pulling out the driveway.
It didn't take long to get to the place. As we stepped inside the building, the smell of pizza and dough filled the room. "What kind of pizza do you want?" He asked me.
"Just cheese is good." I said. He nodded and said, "find a table and I'll bring it to you" and I did so. I chose a booth by the window, you could see along with the highway. The place wasn't crowned at all, there was 3 tables taken up out of about 10. I checked my phone as I waited for Hayes to come to the table. I saw there was a text from Nash. It read:
I need to talk to you when you come back from lunch with Hayes.
A: what's going on? Is everything okay?
N: yeah, everything is great. You'll find out when you get here.
A: okay? I'll see you then bye
I was a bit nervous now, Nash never acted this way towards me, he's never wanted to talk in privet. Should I be scared? All my thoughts went aside when I saw Hayes coming to the table. "One cheese pizza" he put it on the table. I guess he saw I was scared because he gave me a confused looked, "are you okay?" He asked.
"Umm I guess. Just scared"
"About what?" He asked.
"What if your fans see us? And they know it's a date" I lied, I wasn't gonna tell him about Nash.
"I told you, they love you. They won't mind" he reassured me, even though I really didn't need it.
The date was really fun. I beat Hayes in laser-tag because he sucks. At one point I tripped over a prop, after laughing at myself for 5 minutes; I got back up started playing again. We were finally home though, now I can talk to Nash about whatever it was he wanted.
Hayes was outside playing with Keeda so I decided; why not talk to Nash now?
"Hey Nash" I said sitting at the bar stool.
"Oh hi" he turned around.
"What was you wanted to talk about?" I asked him.
"You and Hayes" he said. Does he know? Did Hayes already tell him?
"What about us?" I played it off.
"He really likes you. I don't see how you can't tell or notice"
"What do you mean?" I questioned.
"At dinner last night, there would be a time where Hayes would stop and look at you-look into you. But when you would laugh, he smiled. He genuinely smiled." he said. Last night was the night I found out Hayes has feelings for me, but I didn't think they were that big. He says he likes me a lot, all the time now, but I didn't think it could be to the point where everyone noticed, except for me.
"Nash-" I started but was cut off by Hayes walking inside.
"Hayes, can I talk to you in privet?" I asked him.
"Sure" he said as I pulled him towards the stairs, farther away from Nash.
"What's up?" He said.
"Nash. He just told me you like me-what if he finds out or knows now?" I said.
"Then we'll have to tell him now instead of later like we were going to" he said. We walked back to Nash, he was still in the kitchen. Luckily their parents weren't home and Sky was taking a nap.
"Are you guys okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. Look we got to tell you something, and you can't tell anyone." Hayes said.
"What's going on?"
"We're dating.." I spoke up.
"Since when?"
"Last night.. But today was our first date" Hayes said.
"Wow, finally!" Nash said. He sounded pretty happy.
"What do you mean 'finally'?" I asked him.
"I've-we've been waiting since Hayes' party. He was going yo ask you out that day but he chickened out"
"I did not chicken out, I realized I should wait" Hayes defended himself.
"Whatever you say. But when do you guys plan on telling everyone else?"
"After we get back from the trip. Of we tell mom she might change her mind"
