I sat on a bench, uneasy and paranoid. I wasn't ready, not for this. Rye had been wanting to tell his fans that he was dating me for a while, yet I felt horrible for it. I loved Rye to pieces, but so did a thousand other girls, why was I the one to get him. I heard voices coming around the corner and hugged myself tighter.

Rye paused in front of me, only just noticing I was there before immediately dropping to the floor in front of me. Taking my hand in his and lifting my chin up with his other, he leant forward so our foreheads touched and looked at me sadly.
   "You're worrying again." He stated after a brief silence. I sighed and nodded, biting my lower lip. "I want them to know I love you, Y/N. I want to be able to hold your hand in public and do things that normal couples do." He frowned, massaging my hand lightly. I pulled away and frowned.

"I want that too" I said finally, Rye squeezed my hand lightly.
    "You're brave. They love you anyway." He reassured me, looking over at the clock above us. "Shit" he breathed, pulling me up with him. "I'm late."

They finished singing and I clapped loudly backstage. It never failed to surprise me how talented he was, even if I knew he was beating himself up for the voice crack in 'Take This Home'. There was a lot of fans, the boys walked offstage, all but Rye. He stood on his own in centre stage and cleared his throat. I felt my stomach drop.

Brook held my hand from beside me and smiled over at me, I nodded, though my hands were shaking horribly.

"Hi" Rye started off awkwardly, chuckling a little. "I have something to say, because I don't like keeping secrets from you all." He trailed off, glancing over at me. He walked over and I immediately doubted everything, I couldn't do it.

"Rye, I can't" I spluttered as he held me close to his chest in a tight embrace.
     "Hold my hand, babe." He whispered, I did as he asked and he pulled me into the limelight. The crowd silenced. "I love all of you" he announced, I admired his confidence.

"But I also love her" he continued, earning a loud muttering from the audience. I held my breath anxiously for everything to fall to pieces. For the hate that I anticipated.

Instead came an applause, it was dim at first but soon caught on and eventually almost the whole audience joined in applause for us. Rye beamed with pride and I stood there, overcome with emotion.

He pulled me close, and kissed me, for the first time out of the shadows. It definitely wouldn't be the last.

Hiii
Sorry, I really am. Promise.
I've done a remodel of my acc. It's very professional now (it really isn't) 😂
But hopefully it's improved.
Thanks for being here, love you all.
