I saw Daniel and another girl kissing. I didn't want to believe it. They heard me come and pulled away. Daniel's face was full of shock. I didn't know if it was good or bad. He pushed pass the girl and started walking towards but I backed up.

"Stop" I put my hand out. He stopped in his tracks and looked at me with sorrow eyes. "Explain" I said with pleaded eyes. "She pulled me away from the group and forced herself on me. She grabbed my shirt from the other side so you couldn't see to make it looked like we both wanted it and as soon as she kissed me, you walked by" he explained and showed me the wrinkles in his shirt where she gripped his shirt.

I nodded my head but backed away. "I-I... just don't do it again. Please. I n-need time" I choked out and ran out the store. I ran for a while. I ran to the cliff that made all my thoughts disappear. The cliff that over looks LA.

I found this place not so long ago and I thought it was beautiful. At night, all the lights turn on and it turns even more beautiful than it already was. I sat on a nearby rock and watched the sunset as the lights began to turn on. "Hey" someone said. I wasn't expecting the sudden voice so I jumped and swiftly turned my head.

I looked up to see Jonah and I let out a sigh of relief. "Hi..." I turned back to the view. He sat down beside me and gazed with me. "Are you okay?" He asked softly. "I... I don't even know anymore. Is it bad if I say no? I know it was a kiss but I don't know if that was the true story and, I don't want the same thing to happen again Jonah" my eyes started tearing up at the end.

He put his arm around me and hugged me. "Hey it's okay not to be okay. I doubt Daniel would ever cheat on his girlfriend. Daniel is the sweetest person ever and loyal too. But if you feel the need to take time to forgive, I don't blame you. But just trust me, us, on this. Daniel would never take a girl for granted. He thinks beyond about someone he cares about and how to care for them" he told me.

I nodded and stayed silent. I stared up at the stars letting my body relax. Before I knew it, I fell asleep to the soft singing of Jonah.

------------

I woke up in a car and saw Jonah driving. I looked out the window to see it was dark. "What's happening?" I mumbled, cuddling into a ball. "You fell asleep and I'm driving home now. You were only sleeping for like an hour" he told me and continued with his eyes on the road.

I slowly nodded and looked outside. Jonah started singing which made me feel like I was in a music video. Only me?

We arrived back at the house to see all the boys but except Daniel in the living room. They saw me and Jonah walk in and sighed of relief. "So glad you are okay" and "you had us worried" were tossed around the room. I broke free from the group and excused myself.

I went to Daniel's room and peeked inside to see his back and his guitar. I heard a sniffle and his hands went up to his face, in guessing to wipe away tears. I frowned and felt so bad. I snuck up from behind and knelt in front of him.

I cupped his face with my hands. "Baby? You know I love you and I wouldn't break up with you if that happened since you explained. Someone made me realize and I forgive you. You know it's just hard to see the person you're dating kissing another person" I told him and pressed my lips against his.

I moved his guitar and sat on his lap. We parted and sat in that position hugging each other. We stayed there for a while before I got up and laid on the bed. He grabbed his guitar again and started playing Tell Me.

We joined the others after having a small couple session and they were outside making a bone fire. We went outside and when they others saw us, they cheered. "Wooooo! I hated seeing you guys sad" Corbyn said.

I laughed and sat down on a log in between Jonah and Daniel. "Thank you" I whispered into Jonah's ear and he nodded. We brought out the ingredients to make snores. Gina was staying the night and she kept burning her marshmallow. I laughed while I was finished assembling my s'more.

I turned to Daniel and gestured to the s'more. He opened his mouth and I fed him it, marshmallow getting on his lip. "You see here, Nancy can roast a marshmallow good" Daniel said with a mouth full. I playfully slapped his shoulder and laughed. "Don't talk with your mouth open, don't want you choking" I told him and started roasting another marshmallow.

"Teach me your ways" Jack said. Zach nodded and sat next to me, now in between Jonah and I. I shrugged, "I'm not the best as he exaggerated. I just don't like burnt marshmallows so I roast them to a golden brown. You just gotta take your time" I told him while turning my stick. Jonah and Corbyn were already making good s'mores while Jack, Gina, and Zach kept burning them.

Jack got he hang of it and fed Gina one while she kept trying to not burn hers. I made another s'more and did the same to Zach. I showed him, he got the memo and opened his mouth and almost burn my finger off. "Zach! What the hell man" I laughed. The night was filled with laughter, happiness, and beautiful voices from the Why Don't We boys themselves.
