"Aria, are you ready?" I asked knocking on her door.

"Almost, I'll be down in a few minutes." She said and I walked down stairs.

"How long does it take for this girl to get ready?" Maddie laughed.

"I don't know." I laughed and jumped in the couch next to Maddie.

Then Shawn and Hayes walked in through the door.

"Hey, where were you guys?" I asked.

"Oh, we had to bring, Shawn's truck to the repair shop." Hayes said.

"I didn't know there was something wrong with it." Maddie said.

"Yeah, it happened this morning." Shawn covered up.

I can tell something's up.

"Whatever, Hayes tell your girlfriend to hurry up." I said getting impatient.

"Okay." He laughed.

He walked up stairs and Shawn plopped down on the couch.

"I'm ready!" Aria yelled walking down the stairs.

"Finally!" Me and Maddie said in sync.

"Cya guys." Maddie smiled and we walked out the door.

Today should be fun!

"I hate lying." I said to Hayes.

"Yeah, but it's for a good reason. She ant find out and you can't tell anyone!" Hayes said.

"Okay. But, I'm gonna need Liz's help. She's good at helping me with theses things. Can you tell her? I still need to tell Nash, Cam and Jace." I said.

"Yeah, I'll tell her when she gets back." Hayes smiled.

"Thanks, man." I smiled.

I'm so scared to do this!

HAYES' POV

Liz, Maddie and Aria just got back and I need to tell Liz.

She's gonna be so excited!

"Hey, Liz. Wanna go get a coffee?" I asked.

"Yeah, sure. Let me just grab my jacket." She smiled and walked up stairs.

"Why are you taking Liz to coffee?" Aria asked coming up behind me.

"Oh, I have to tell her something." I said.

"What is it?" She asked.

"You'll know later. Okay, babe? I'll see you later." I smiled and kissed her forehead.

"Let's go." Liz smiled and we walked out the door.

**** 

"So, what was this about?" She asked.

"How do you think there's a reason I asked you? How come I can't just have a coffee with my good friend Lizzie?" I said.

She squinted at me.

"Fine, remember the morning about Shawn's truck going to the repair shop? Well, that was a lie." I said.

"Everyone knows that. You're such a bad liar Hayes." She laughed.

"Whatever, it was good enough. Well, we were actually going to get Maddies engagement ring." I smiled.

"What?! Shawn's gonna propose?" She smiled.

"Yeah, tomorrow. But you can say anything! And I mean anything." I strictly said.

"Yes! I promise! Oh my god! I'm so excited!" She smiled.

"Why are you telling me?" She asked.

"Shawn wants your help." I said.

"Yes, I will be happy to help!" She smiled.

I just smiled and stared at her.

She's so beautiful..
