Things Have Changed For Me (Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco Fanfic)

The Proposal

When we get there, everyone's running around trying to get the equipment set up. Elisa, Meagan, and I sit in the dressing rooms. They're looking through baby magazines while I'm looking at colleges online. I know that going to college wouldn't work out, but it's something I've always wanted to do. I've email the Head Master at Harvard, and he said that the invitation is still open. He understands what I've been through, and he said once I get everything situated I could go if I wanted to. The thing is I haven't told anyone. I'm afraid of leaving Brendon to go over there. I would have to be on my own with the baby while he tours, and I don't know if I could do that. Maybe I could take online classes?

"What's got you all serious and worried," Elisa asks me.

"Oh I'm just thinking about stuff," I quickly say turning my phone off.

"What kind of stuff," she asks.

"Just ummm baby stuff. Like how spoiled rotten our kid will be because of Brendon," I lie smiling.

"Patrick will probably polite the kid to death if he or she ever gets in trouble," Elisa says laughing.

"I bet Pete will never let the baby walk on his own. He loves carrying them," Meagan says.

After that I walk off into Brendon, Dallon, Kenneth. and Dan's empty dressing room. I look at my phone. It's almost time for the concert to start. When I look up, they're all running in with some of their clothes on. I laugh, and Brendon gives me a quick peck on the lips before they run back out. I watch on the TV screen, and I see them go out on the stage. That's when I slowly get up holding my stomach, and I slowly walk down the hallway to the side stage. Before I can get five feet, Zack runs up to me and throws me over his shoulder careful no to hurt my stomach. What the hell is he doing?!

"Zack, put me down," I loudly say as I hit him on the shoulders.

"Okay," he says putting me on the riser that goes up to the stage.

I sit up, and he quickly pushes the up button. It starts rising quickly, and I can't get off. I stand up, and blinding white lights and  deafening waves of cheering hits me.

I freeze, and Brendon laughs, "And this is my beautiful but very shy girlfriend, Erica."

I look down at what I'm wearing, and it's shorts and Brendon's Blink 182 tank top. I see the scars on my arms and quickly put them behind my back. I run and hide behind Dan.

He turns around and laughs, "Why are you hiding?"

"Why? Lets see... hmm how about Zack came out of nowhere and picked me up... he wouldn't let me down until we got to that door thingy. Now, I'm in front of tens of thousands of people," I say.

A video clip starts to play, and the lights dim. He laughs, and I look to the side stage nearest to me and see Zack standing there. I can't get out that way, so my only other option is to run past Dallon, Kenneth, and Brendon to the other side. I look out at the crowd to see people sitting on people's shoulders, people holding up signs, and people taking pictures and videos with their phones. Dallon's the closest. He's bent over with his hands on his knees, and head down. He looks up at me laughing, and I quickly run across the stage,  but he grabs me.

His bass is in between us, and I yell over the music, "Let me go, Dallon Weekes! I can't see why everyone wants me up here!"  

"When I let you go, don't run away. Okay," he yells.

"Okay," I yell back.

As soon as he lets me go, I start running across the stage, but Kenneth and a crew member block the entrance off. Before I can do anything, someone wraps their arms around my waist from behind. I turn around and it's Brendon smiling what has to be the biggest smile known to man.

"Why are you in a rush," he whispers.

"You told them to do this didn't you," I ask.

"Because I need to do something very important," he whispers as the video ends, and he steps back.

All the lights go off, and I can't see anything. Always starts playing, but it's only the introduction. The stage light  flashes on, and Brendon's kneeled down on his knees in front of me. The microphone stand is as low as it can go, and pointed towards Brendon's mouth, and one's pointed toward me. He slips his hand into his pocket and pulls out a little box. My heart feels like it's stopped beating. Is he-?

"Erica, we've been through a hell of a lot in the last year, and I mean everything... But here we are one year later. It would make me the happiest man alive if you would marry me," he says opening the box to reveal a diamond ring with a gold band and a center diamond surrounded by little ones.

The crowd awwwws, and I say, "Yes, a million times yes."

He places the ring on my finger, and kisses it. I can't believe he did this. I've never felt this happy in my life. He stands up, and we kiss right then and there.

When we finally stop kissing, he says, "Well, that was a great way to end the night! Thank you guys for helping me pull this off! In return, you're all going to be in my wet dreams tonight! Byeee!"

The crowd yells, and Brendon picks me up.

When we finally start walking down the hallway, I ask, "Wet dreams huh?"

He chuckles and whispers, "Are all about you and occasionally Ryan Gosling."

"I knew you liked him," I say laughing.  

"What can I say? He's a beautiful man, and he made me cry during the notebook," Brendon says smiling.

"He made everyone cry, and you can let me down," I say laughing.

"I like holding you," Brendon whispers in my ear gently biting it. 

I giggle, and Brendon smirks. I wrap my arms around his sweaty neck, and we kiss.

"Don't hurt the baby," Dallon chimes in.

"Oh shut up," I say without breaking the kiss.

He, Dan, and Kennth laugh, and Zack walks in.

"Good job sneaky son of a bitch," Zack tells Brendon.

"Not bad yourself ass hole," Brendon says laughing.

Brendon and I lay on the couch, and Zack turns up the TVs volume, so we can hear Pete, Patrick, Andy, and Joe onstage. Brendon twirls my hair around his finger. I smile, and he kisses me on my forehead. Just when my eyes are starting to close, I hear a ear spliting scream.
