•AUTHORS NOTE•
This one was requested by SuperSammyO1999
Thanks for the request! Also, I kind of divided this one into two parts because there are like two main ideas to the one-shot. I may have exaggerated the ending a little bit, ok a lot, compared to what the request was but whatever. Enjoy!

Part 1
•JACKS POV•
"So we are REALLY going to do this?" I ask him. It's a really big commitment to make. Who knows what people could think about us.
"Well if anybody judges us for it, then they aren't real fans. The real fans will support every decision we make" Zach responds with a bright smile. I lean in and give him a quick peck on the lips. He really knows how to cheer me up.
"So how are we going to go about announcing this?" I ask, confused as to how we are going to do this properly.
"How about we announce it at the next tour date? Word spreads fast. We can do some social media posts after that and maybe some posts leading up to it" he suggests. I smile.
"Perfect."
~~~~~~~TIME SKIP TO SHOW~~~~~~
I'm pacing round in circles back stage. Zach is not here to reassure me because he is in the bathroom, which just makes my heart rate speed up even more. Jonah who is back stage with me though, sees that I am in distress.
"Hey hey, it's ok bud. Everyone will except you. All of your fans love you greatly and would support you even if you decided to chop off all of your limbs" Jonah assures me, rubbing my back. I smile a little bit and thank him. Jonah, being the oldest, knows all about all of us and how to calm us down. Zach comes out from the bathroom and smiles at me.
"You ready for this?" He asks excitedly. I hesitate and then nod, knowing that I really shouldn't turn back now. All of us gather back stage, doing our "1 2 3 why dont we" thing and then go out on stage.

It's near the end of the performance, meaning it's time. Me and Zach are going to preform a duet, and then announce that we are dating. We are backstage, as Corbyn is just finishing up his solo, and are getting ready to go on next.
"You ready for this babe?" He asks for like the fifth time today. I straighten my shirt collar and run a hand through my curls.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
The crowd cheers loudly as we walk onto the stage. We wave at all of them and then prepare to do our performance.
"So me and Zach are actually going to do a duet because we have a special announcement for you guys" I exclaim.
"The song that we will be preforming is Say You Won't Let Go by James Arthur (first thing that came to mind). Hope you enjoy!" He finishes. We sit down, both of us with guitars and starts singing.
(Insert song lyrics here. Too lazy to write them and who wants to see that anyways)
The audience claps and cheers as we finish, making me smile wide. I look over at Zach to see that he is doing the same.
"Now remember how we said that we had a special announcement to make?" I say nervously into the microphone. The audience cheers once more. I smile at Zach and turn to face him. He turns to face me. We lean in close, and then we kiss. It's a short kiss, who knows how many little kids there may be in the audience. Everyone seems shocked at first but then there are suddenly loud cheers. Like really loud. Louder than any other applause anyone has gotten all night. You can hear the fans screaming and people clapping and whistling. I hold jacks hands and smile at him. That show was amazing.

Part 2
•ZACHS POV•
It has been a month since me and jack announced our relationship to the public. The news spread fast. Like, within minutes after the announcement, the entire fandom probably knew about our relationship. And so far, all we have gotten is unending support. Well, MOST of what we have gotten is support. There are the occasion comments of people calling us offensive names and just being downright disrespectful. Comments like "I wish all of you mentally insane gay people would die" but for each one of those comments, there a bunch of fans responding with things like "being gay is a perfectly normal thing! Just because your jealous of their fame doesn't mean that they aren't like the rest of us". And all of these comments have us smiling and being thankful for our supportive fan base. But about a week ago when I woke up to check my Instagram, I saw along more hate than normal, and it was all directed at me.
User1: Eww. That ugly dude doesn't deserve to be dating jack
User2: Zach is no where near jacks level. Why are they even dating?
User4: jack should just dump him and find someone else already
And instead of the usual supporters who respond to the hate comments saying how they are wrong, it was the opposite. People were agreeing with the hate. For a minute I thought that maybe some rumor or something that we didn't know about had been spread, causing this sudden outburst. But even after an hour of searching, I found no sign. I decided to just ignore it, but every day after that I would wake up with more hate, and it would hit me harder each time. None of the boys seemed to have notice the hate, and I'm trying my best to hide all changes of my behavior, despite the depression that is slowly consuming me like a ferocious monster. And when I woke up this morning, I broke.
I sit up in my bed, I instinctively grabbing my phone and opening it to Instagram, where most of the hate takes place. It's pretty convenient since none of us boys really look at each others Instagram comments which is good since I don't want them to know about any of this. No one else is in the room, so I don't need to worry about my demeanor changing. I open it up to see the hate comments, which somehow seem even worse today. And that is when I break. I begin to feel the tears spill down my cheeks. The tears that I have been hiding in for the entire week. I thrown my phone across the room, not caring if it's broken. I curl up in a ball and sob into my knees. They don't need me here. Everyone hates me. I don't deserve such a wonderful guy like jack. I stand up and walk over to my dresser, punching it hard. Unfortunately, the punch doesn't only cause the small vase that is on top of the dresser to shatter on the floor, but the impact also causes me to fall over. And I instinctively put my hand down to brace my fall, right in the pile of glass. I cry out in pain as I land, quickly lifting my hand up too see the damage. Multiple large pieces of glass are wedged painfully into my hand, blood dripping around the edges. This is how it's meant to be. I begin repeatedly punching the floor, repeating the same phrase over and over to myself.
"I deserve this. It's for jack. I deserve this." That's when I hear footsteps up the stairs and I hear a loud gasp. I see jack covering his mouth at the doorway. He runs over to me and grabs me from the ground.
"Oh my god Zach what happened? JONAH!" He shouts. Jonah always knows what to do in these situations. I bury my head into his chests, letting out body wrenching sobs. I hear footsteps running up the stairs and see Jonah run into the room. He looks at me with his eyes wide.
"Quick! Take him to the bathroom" he says. He sets me on the counter and Jonah grabs my hand, pulling the chunks of glass from my palm. He wraps a bandage around my hand, all while jack cleans the mess in the bedroom. I notice that my hand hurts really badly, and I can barley move my fingers.
"I-i think my hand might be b-broken" I sob.
"We are going to urgent care then." Me him and jack drive to urgent care in the car together. I explain to them all of the hate and jack reassuringly rubs my back and gives me kisses all over my face.
"Baby you know that none of what they say is true. I couldn't ask for a better boyfriend. You are absolutely PERFECT for me" he says, right before giving me a kiss on the cheek.
"We all see how happy you two are together. The haters are just jealous. I'll take care of it" Jonah says. A smile a weak smile.
"The haters are never going to get to you again as long as I'm here."

Sorry that it ends so abruptly! It was just getting kind of long and very dramatic.
