Jack POV

I got everything ready by 6 am. I don't normally wake up this early but I wanted it impress Grayson. She was gonna be stressed at school and I was hoping I could take some of her stress away.

Her mom was in on the plan and let me in to make breakfast before she headed to work. I made pancakes with chocolate chips and whipped cream on top with scrambled eggs and a mango smoothie. I had gotten a bouquet of flowers and a stuffed animal. I heard Grayson shuffling around her room getting ready. The boys knocked on the the door and I opened it for them. We all stood in front of Grayson's piano and got ready. We heard her door open and she was running down the stairs.

"She's gonna love it!" Her mom said as she pulled out her phone to video it. She walked down the stairs and she looked confused for a minute but started to smile when I started singing.

[[Verse 1: Jack Avery]
You have my focus
I can't control it
I find your magic
In every moment

[Verse 2: Jonah Marais]
No slight of hand
Cause' you're my truth
And when in love the ordinary just won't do

[Pre-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
You look so beautiful
You walked out of a dream
I never felt this way before
Your eyes are all I need
To make forever feel like just a little while
I swear I'd walk, I'd run, I'd even learn to fly
Just to see you smile

[Chorus: Why Don't We]
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way (just to see you smile)
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way, have it your way

[Verse 3: Corbyn Besson]
Without a question
You keep me guessing
And golden hearts find gentle hands with no exception

[Verse 4: Zach Herron]
And if I hold you
We're bulletproof
And I don't care about nobody's point of view

[Pre-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
You look so beautiful
You walked out of a dream
I never felt this way before
Your eyes are all I need
To make forever feel like just a little while
I swear I'd walk, I'd run, I'd even learn to fly
Just to see you smile

[Chorus: Why Don't We]
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way (just to see you smile)
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way, have it your way

[Verse 5: Jack Avery]
And when you pull me close
I learn which side of gravity needs me most
Attracted to your everything

[Pre-Chorus: Zach Herron]
I know there's more than what meets the eye
I'd walk, I'd run, I'd even learn to fly
Just to see you smile

[Chorus: Why Don't We]
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way
You can make the world stop
You can have it your way (just to see you smile)

By now she had her hands over her mouth and she looked so happy. I was nervous but I hoped she would say yes.

"Did-did you write that?"

"Yeah"

"That was so amazing guys"

"I've got an important question"

"Okay shoot jack"

"I've gotten to know you so well over these few weeks and I love being around you. You always make my day and I'm so glad I met you. Grayson London, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Of course jack, I was worried you'd never ask"

I had told her I was going to kiss her in the morning so I walked over to her and spun her around then kissed her. I think she was shocked that I actually did it. It took her a second but she kissed me back then we heard someone clear their throat. She turned around and it was her dad.

"Did he finally ask you out?"

"Yes dad"

"Is that okay Mr. Black?"

"Of course it's okay, I've been waiting for you to ask her since we moved here"

I laughed and I took her hand and led her over to where I had made her breakfast. She said thank you and started eating. I don't think she was worried about her performance anymore. We arrived at school and walked into music. She looked scared again so I kissed her on the cheek and complimented her.

"You're gonna do great, go get em cutie"

"Thanks Jack"

I was right, she did absolutely amazing. She played that composition better than she had when she practiced. Just to embarrass her, I stood up and yelled

"Ooh yes that's my girlfriend! Go Grayson London!"

She blushed and went back to her seat. She whispered thank you and kissed my cheek. We watched the boys do their performances and they were amazing as well. It was time for me to go up and I was going to sing the song I sung for Gray this morning.
