November 24, 2016

"M'lady" Zach bowed as he opened the car door for me. "Why thank you my kind sir" I said and giggled placing my hand in his ,stepping out of the car. He closed the door and intertwined our fingers together.

We began walking into the restaurant and he held the door open for me. "Do you all have a reservation?" The hostess asked. "Yes, we are here with a party" Zach answered her smiling that smile I grew to love at me. "Name?" She questioned. "Herron" Zach told her. "Of course, right this way" she said and lead us to a secluded area of the restaurant. Zach placed his hand on the small of my back and made sure I was in front of him as he guided me.It was a room with a long table and two doors.

The table held Corbyn and Christina, Jack and Kira, Mia and Jonah, Sofia and Daniel and last but not least Nathaniel and Isabelle. There were two chairs towards the end of the table with two empty seats in between Jonah, Mia ,Jack and Kira.

"Hello you guys!" I chirped at the sight of my friends that I considered family. "About time now we can order" Mia mumbled earning echoes of laughter through the room. "I love you too Meme's" I said bending down slightly to hug her since she was sitting down and since I had a dress on.

I had on a low cut v neck dress that had beading on the top and shaped my curves perfectly. It flared out and went slightly above my thighs. I had on sparkly black pumps and black diamond studs. My hair was in large curls and parted in the middle.

Zach pulled my chair out for me to sit in and I sat down before he pushed my chair in. He sat himself down next to me and scooted his chair up.

He had on a black tuxedo as well as the other boys. The boys new EP had gone viral around the world so we all came to this fancy restaurant.

We ordered our food and began reminiscing about any and everything. "Oh my God, you couldn't talk for a week" I said and snickered at Sofia who just glared at me.

Suddenly Zach tapped his glass of sparkling liquid. I looked over and saw we all had glasses filled with bubbly contents.

Zach rose to his feet."Everyone" he said smiling big. "First of all I'd like to say thank you to my boys" Zach thanked them looking around. "We couldn't have got here without each other and our hard work. I don't see you guys as just members of our band, I see you guys as brothers. These about two years I've spent with you has taught me a-lot ,and I hope we will continue growing as a band and family" Zach told us. "So I raise a toast to us"Zach held his glass in the air to take a sip until I stopped him. "We're underaged!" I upbraided him. "Don't worry, it's sparkling white grape juice" Zach said and winked at me.

I shook my head laughing as I raised the glass to my lips. Everyone was staring at me intently big smiles on their face .As I took a sip my eyebrows raised the liquid eased down my throat . Then I felt something hard hit my teeth.

I abruptly stopped drinking and put the glass down holding whatever it was in place.

"What the --" I mumbled reaching my hand towards my mouth and pulling it from my mouth.

A gasp fell from my lips as I pulled my hand in front of my face. There being held up between my index finger and thumb was a beautiful ring.

It was silver with a big diamond in the middle being surrounded by a diamond frame. It had a twist that circled around the diamond.

I turned to my left to see Zach on his knees with a nervous smile on his face. He took my hand which held the ring in it and took it from my hand. He held my hand and intertwined our fingers leaving our hands on my knee. He held the ring up with the other one.
