After finding out the sex of what could potentially be my baby and listening to that heartbeat, I'm going to do it. We've kissed and fucked a lot and neither of us have asked the actual question so I guess we can make it official. And my plan for that is YouTube. I'm not including it in the edit, but it's a good way to do it.

"You ready?" She put the headphones on and turned the music up stupidly loud. I could hear that she was listening to Turn Around. Of course it was Conor's song!
"Ready!" She shouted so loud.
"Okay... Lauren, I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?" She looked at me funny, then Conor and Joe, then back at me.

"You what?"
"I love you."
"I love to..."
"No." She still looks so confused!
"I love... I love you?"
"Yes."
"Is that it?" I shook my head.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" Her eyes went wide.
"Okay I think I definitely got that wrong but, will you... Oh god I dont wana say it!" She's got to be wrong if she cant say it.
"It looked like you said will you fuck me. I already know that's wrong!"
"Well yeah I will but you didn't have to ask in front of everyone." She looked confused.

"That wasnt it. This is it... Will you, be my girlfriend?"
"Will you... Is it will you?" I nodded.
"Be my?" I nodded again.
"Bestfriend?"
"No! So close!"
"I can see friend at the end. I don't know what comes before that though." She's starting to get frustrated because she cant get it.

"Girlfriend."
"Girlfriend? Is that it?" She looked happy. I just nodded my head.
"Will you... Be my... Girlfriend. Will you be my girlfriend?" Her eyes went wide with happiness!
"Something tells me this wasn't a real one." I shook my head. She's still shouting because of the music. I pulled the headphones off her and looked at her.

"I love you. A lot! Will you be my girlfriend?" She smiled straight away.
"Jack. I- I thought you'd never ask. Of course I will. And actually I love you more."
"Not possible!"

Seing these two in front of me finally together makes me happy. Because both of them have found love. Not only that but they have found each other. Me and Joe sat and watched as they both stood up to finish their turn, and to end the video, but kissed before they did anything. Lauren looks happier now than she ever did with Josh! Or than she ever did with any of her previous boyfriends. In fact there's pictures I need to show Jack.

We finished the video and ended up talking on the couch. Joe couldn't be bothered to leave so he's staying for food. Now's my chance to show him.
"Hey Jack, look at this." I showed him a photo of younger Lauren on my phone and he awwed. It was a photo of her when she was an actual baby. I showed him a couple more of when she was a toddler too.

"Such a cute child!" Then I got a photo of her from her teens. It was a photo of her in secondary school. She was wearing her uniform and i'm sure she was at school.
"Oh my god! That can't be!"
"It is!" I got a couple more pictures then and showed him some of her year 11 photos.

"No way!" Honestly she only ever had photos of her in school uniform really.
"Not gonna lie you look fucking hot in uniform." Jack smirked at Lauren.
"What? What are you on about? What are you two looking at?" She was talking to Joe so she didn't know what was going on.

"Just photos of your younger self. You were the most adorable baby! And toddler photos are cute. But you look better in your year 11 photos." I showed him a couple more and I think Lauren was getting annoyed.
"Please stop going through my Facebook. Please! There are some cringey things on there." I stopped going through Facebook and got up Instagram.

I decided to scroll to her first photos and found some interesting things.
"I thought you said you had never really watched YouTube before..." She looked at me confused.
"You've found my instagram posts haven't you?" I just smiled and nodded.

"Okay... I was a massive YouTube geek for ages! And I may have found you guys and became obsessed. Over Jack mainly. Then I stopped my obsession because I thought I was too old for YouTube. Turns out, you're never too old. So yeah there will be pictures." I found one of Jack and showed it too them.

"'Oh my god why are his eyes just so freaking cute!' Great caption."
"Thanks. Im not the greatest at captions." I got another one of all the boys.
"Love these guys so much! Really hope to meet them some day other than Joe and Caspar... What?" Joe looked at her quite offended.

"And this was the part I didn't want you to find."
"Why didn't you wanna meet me or Caspar?"
"Because I met you both already." She went quiet. I think she was a little embarassed about the confrontation.
"Explain!"
"Okay so I met a few youtubers..."

(Seriously another chapter with no caption... 2015 me is the worst!)
