thirty five - proposal

AN: sorry if you get notifications of updates, I'm going to be editing some chapters for grammar and such.

Townes' POV

"Oh look at that angel face, I miss you Townie. Where's the other troublemaker?" Benny asked. He looked bad, and I hated seeing him that way. I kept taking breaths to make sure I didn't cry, my grandma asking me to please not stress him.

"She's sleeping, Ben. I tried, but you know how Tash is with her sleep." I chuckled a bit and he did too.

"How's the pop star treating you?" He smiled and I couldn't help but blush.

"Good actually. We're...kinda dating. But don't tell grams please, I wanna tell her when I get to LA. Just a couple weeks. Harry got his schedule all confused and I thought I would have to wait a month, but, it's just two more weeks."

"Mmm, I had a feeling. After he kept coming back to the bar." He chuckled and I shrugged.

"Made him work for it."

"As you should." He smiled big, "I can't wait to see you Townes. And send that troublemaker home to me soon, okay? I need her."

"I will. Take care okay, Benny? No stress, tell them to give you pina coladas and keep them coming." I teased and he laughed.

"Just pretend I'm at a resort."

"Exactly!" I chuckled and soon we both said bye and hung up. I laid back on the bed and sighed. Sarah had woken up early and headed out promising to send Harry home. I decided I would take a bath while Tasha slept.

Harry's POV

I got home and laughed at Tasha sprawled out on the couch, her hair a mess. I looked around for Townes, and headed to our room. I opened the door and couldn't help but smirk. I had gotten used to her mess and picking up after her, and appreciated when the trail of clothing like today led me to where she was. I followed it to the bathroom, picking everything up as I went and placing it on the vanity chair before walking in the bathroom.

She had brought in a small table and was leaning over the edge of the tub writing in her notebook, her back to me. Her hair was clipped up, the beautiful butterfly tattoo dawning my mark. I stood in the doorway quietly, just watching her, listening to something she seemed to keep humming as she wrote.

She began singing shortly after, I realized how long it had been since I really heard her voice.

"I don't wanna be alone, But I, I can feel it take a hold. I can feel it take control. Of who I am and all I've ever known. Lovings you the antidote. So let's...." She shook her head and sang the last party again, more quiet and to herself, "Of who I am and all I've ever know, lovings you the antidote....ugh." She groaned throwing her pen at the notebook and I laughed softly causing her to jump a bit and turn to face me.

"Umm, creep! How long have you been standing there?" She said, closing the notebook, and I walked over, sitting on the floor next to the tub, leaning back against it and reaching for the notebook. She tried to fight me but I managed to grab it.

"Long enough. Let's see what you have here." I said looking over the lyrics, the music notes also written on the page. I sang it in my head and then looked up at her, "What about, 'loving you's the antidote. Golden, your so golden'."

She narrowed her eyes a bit, taking the notebook back and writing something down, "That...that works actually." She smiled small, biting her lip at her words.

"So is that a chorus?"

"I'm not sure actually. I think, it's part of a verse into the chorus. Golden would start the chorus." She moved the pen to her chin and closed her eyes, humming softly. She opened them and looked over at me, "You and Mitch make this look so easy."
