And it did come back to bite you in the ass.

The next morning.

You were woken up around 11 am to a text from Calum, but not the one you wanted.

You rubbed the sleep out of your eyes and saw that he had not only sent you the link to an article, but underneath he had written:
"So no engagement ring, huh?"

Your eyes widened.

Oh fuck.

You clicked on the link and scrolled down just enough to see the title of the article:

"Jake Kiszka and Farren Lee Spark Dating Rumors"

Just reading that much of it made you sick on your stomach.

You threw your phone across the room with a loud "THUD" as it hit the wall beside the door.

You had successfully made enough of a commotion for Ivy to hear because seconds later she came barreling into your room, a confused look on her face.

"What happened?? I heard a loud noise, did you fall??" She yelled frantically.

You didn't say a word, simply pointed down at your phone that was lying on the floor signaling for her to pick it up.

She did and looked down at the screen, "Jake Kiszka and Farren Lee Spark Dating Rum-oh my god." she gasped, the color instantly draining from her face.

That was right at an hour ago.

You were now squished into the corner of Jakes sectional, a pillow and your knees hugged up to your chest as you waited for Ivy to read the article out loud.

She was sitting on the other end of the couch with her phone in hand nervously biting her lip and bouncing her knee anxiously, Sam was beside of you shooting you nervous glances every now and then, and Jake was standing over by his bookshelves in front of his tv looking like he to was about to puke.

"Just read it already." You groaned into the pillow.

Ivy let out a long sigh, "Okay fine. Here we go,

"Jake Kiszka and Farren Lee Spark Dating Rumors.
The 25-year-old guitarist and the 25-year-old event coordinator were snapped getting close on what looked like an intimate date yesterday in pictures published by Page Six."

"Intimate date??? We were at a fucking bowling alley!!!" You yelled, already annoyed.

I mean how could they get intimate date from that??

"Yeah...uh, I hate to break it to you two, but these pictures do look a little suspicious....there are two of them, but this one kind of looks like Jake is kissing you on the cheek.." Ivy said as she winced slightly but nonetheless turned her phone around so you could see.

"Wait what?? There's no way??" Jake replied as he quickly marched around the couch so that he was now directly behind you, also looking at the photos.

It was two pictures that clearly one of the two fans had sneakily taken of you and Jake as you were making your way out to the parking lot of the bowling alley.
The first one was just a picture of Jake looking at you, but the second...it really was a little bit more on the suspicious side.
His hand was positioned just low enough on your waist for it to look intimate.
He had his face to the left side of your own where he had been whispering to you asking if you were okay, but because of the angle the photo was taken and the small smile dancing on your lips, it did look like he was kissing your cheek.
