Barrone had been really weird lately. Like acting really strange. I couldn’t have a proper conversation with him. He would give me Yes or No answers. He wasn’t answering in a horrible way it was more shy and reluctant. Which I was of course confused on considering I had lived with the boys for about a year now.
Barrone and Drew were out one day. Luke was bashing on the drums. Kier and Laurence were sat in the sitting room. I crept in and sat down. “Sup” Kier drank his tea. He didn’t take his eyes of the TV he just acknowledged the fact I was there. Laurence smiled at me. He could sense when something is up with anyone. “You ok?” I shook my head and brought my knees up to my chest on the chair. “What’s up?” Laurence asked. Kier put his cup down and turned off the TV suddenly bringing all attention on me. “Barrone.” Kier and Laurence looked at each other and turned to me. “What about him?” I shrugged and sighed. I moved in the chair and sighed again. “I don’t know he isn’t being very cooperative with me just really straight forward like he wants to be alone. Or he doesn’t want to talk to me I’m not sure have you noticed it or have I done something?” They both looked at each other again as if to converse. Had I done something? Oh god they know something. I’ve known them long enough to be able to tell when they’re hiding something. They shook their heads. “Nah it’s Barrone he probably has a lot on his mind it’ll be nothing to worry about” The way Kier explained it made it seem like I should be worrying and Laurence could tell. “Seriously Emma don’t stress. Barrone will be fine!” I smiled. At this moment Barrone walked in the door with Drew.
“Hey” Barrone walked over to me and kissed the top of my head. I looked up and he smiled at me and kissed my lips. He walked off into the kitchen. Drew Kier and Laurence all looked at each other. Are they all plotting something? They know something is up oh my what is it?
I decided to go for a walk. With Drew. Because well I don’t know I was extremely close with Laurence and Kier they were my best friends but they wouldn’t tell me what was up with Barrone, well they were acting weird about him so I thought Drew might help. He was honestly like a brother to me.
“Drew is Barrone ok. Have I upset him I asked Kier and Laurence and they acted like they had no idea he was being funny but they looked at each other like they knew something was planned?” Drew nodded. He walked a little bit then stopped. “Emma. You haven’t done anything I think it’s just the fact we have a tour coming up and our new EP. Barrone is just getting a little stressed I think you know we all are. Barrone will be fine in a few days. Just give him a little time to be stress free” I sighed and nodded. “Yeah I get that but he won’t even look me in the eye. He seems uneasy when I’m around. Are you sure he is ok? If I had done something would you tell me because I feel really bad?” I felt tears burning in my eyes. Drew pulled me into a hug. “Of course I would tell you if you had done something Emma. We all hate seeing you upset. And even if you had done something I’m sure Barrone wouldn’t act like this he hates the thought of you being upset. If he could see you right now crying I’m pretty sure he would hate himself if he thought he had made you feel this way” I wiped my eyes and smiled at Drew. “See much better. Come on we had better get home”
We reached the door. Drew walked in first. “Hello you two where have you been?” Kier was cooking some food. It smelt great. I looked around the room I couldn’t find Barrone. “Just went for a walk” I started to ignore all back ground conversation. Where is Barrone? Why is he ignoring me like this? I heard a familiar voice which stopped me from crying. “Don’t bother cooking for me and Emma we’re going out” I looked up. The boys all exchanged glances. Barrone smiled at me.
I went upstairs and went in the shower. I put on a cute dress and did my hair and put on a little bit of eye liner. I walked down the stairs. All the boys stopped and stared at me. “Wow you look amazing you’re so beautiful” Just a few comments passed on. Not a single word came from Barrone’s mouth. He just stared at me.
He linked his arm in mine as we got out of the door. He turned to me when walking down the street. “What have you forgot something?” He looked at me. “Yeah I forgot to tell you that you look beautiful and I love you” He kissed me on the cheek
*Barrone’s P.O.V.*
We got to a restaurant. “Barrone we can’t eat here it’s so expensive” I looked at Emma. She was so shocked. “Emma it’s not like we always eat out plus I haven’t spent a lot of time with you lately and I want to have some alone time with you. Even if it means paying Five pound twenty-five for a glass of coke” She smiled and hugged my arm and rested her head on my shoulder.
She looked at the menu in a sort of shocked way. “Emma, I’m not poor I can afford this” She just nodded and reluctantly looked at the menu. She would rather be in McDonald’s but I wanted this night to be special.
We ordered food and it came fairly quickly. We had conversation about the band and the new EP and the tour. We ate our food had dessert and left.
“Emma lets go for a walk” We went around the lake at the park. The stars were out. It was the perfect night. The sky was the darkest blue. I smiled. Tonight was going pretty smooth.
There was a little pier on the lake. We walked to the end and sat down. “Barrone why have you been weird with me lately?” Shit she noticed. S he rested her head on my shoulder. I stood up and put my hands out to her. “Emma I’m really quite bad at not being awkward. I’ve planned this night for a while and all the guys know. And I didn’t want to ruin it” She looked so confused. I dropped down on one knee and pulled out a box from my pocket. “Emma, Will you Marry me?”
