Matt ran up to me all sweaty and gross, putting his arms around me and lifting me up to spin me around.
"Hey babe!" He said, obviously full of energy after his show.
"Eww! Maaattt!" I whined as he put me down. He then kissed my cheek, "Sorry babe! I just really missed you!" I laughed, "You were gone for 2 hours!" He shook his head, "I don't care, Mack! That's 2 hours too long." I laughed and kissed him.
He took his hand in mine as we walked back to our room from the venue. He went into the shower and I sat on the bed searching through the channels. 10 minutes later Matt came out of the bathroom in a towel, his hair all wet and crazy, and water dripping off him. "Matt?" He looked up. "Yeah?" I raised my eyebrows addressing his bareness. "Oh! I forgot my clothes." I nodded, understanding. But, he didn't grab clothes and go back into the bathroom. Instead, he took his whole suitcase and went into the Jacks' room. What?
***Matt's P.O.V.***
I walked across the hall in a towel. I never thought I would ever do that. But there's a first time for everything. I went into the Jacks' room, as planned, and Nash, Hayes, Johnson, Gilinsky, Shawn, and Taylor were all sitting, scattered, around the room.
"Matt! Are you ready?" I took a deep breath in and out, "Ready as I'll ever be!" I replied as Gilinsky stood up, walking towards me, "Well, let's do this then." He took my suitcase from me and put it on the bed. I nodded my head and I started to get a little nervous.
***Mack's P.O.V.***
Not short after Matt left, I heard a knock on the door.
I got up and walked over to open it.
It was Madison and Brooke. I didn't even know they came on tour with us. I guess, though because they are dating Nash and Hayes. Also, Mahogany was with them.
"Hey guys! What are you doing here?" I asked confused. They had a mischievous grin on their faces. "Guys? What's going on?" I asked again. "You are going out tonight! We're here to make you look amazing!" Mahogany almost screeched. "Oh, okay!" I said accepting the fact that I wasn't going to sit on the bed with Matt and watch Netflix all night.
They sat me down and started to go through my clothes and make up
***Matt's P.O.V.***
"Wait! Before we do anything! BLAKE!" I heard Hayes scream. Shit! I completely forgot about Blake!
I looked around. "Guys, I forgot my phone in my room." They all looked at me like I had 10 heads. No other guy had her number because they all hated her.
Nash sprung up and dashed to my room.
***Mack's P.O.V.***
I heard another knock on the door. I got up to open it, only to find Nash running in. "Matt forgot his phone. Do you know where it is? It's really important! He needs it!" Nash started rushing words out of his mouth. "Yeah. Nash, calm down! It's on the nightstand." I grabbed it muttering a quick 'thanks' before running back out the door.
This was getting crazy.
Just as I shut the door Madison ran up to me holding a very showing shirt. "I am NOT wearing that!" I said with emphasis.
***Matt's P.O.V.***
Nash threw my phone at me and I unlocked it, found Blake's contact and pressed call. "Shh, guys he's calling her." Johnson said as the whispers of the guys died down.
It was on speaker when Blake answered. "Hey Matty!" I flinched at the nickname she gave me. I hated when she called me that. But, if it was Mack, I wouldn't mind so much.
"Hey Blake. We really need to talk about something important." I started. But just then she started hysterically crying. "I knew it! I knew eventually you would break up with me for her!" I felt a pang of guilt. Blake really was a good person deep down. "No, no, no! Well, yes, yes, yes. It's just that. We were kind of only a publicity thing. I would rather us only be friends." I tried to make her feel better. She sniffled. "I understand Matt. I'm not mad. You're 100% right. We were a publicity thing. I would like us to be friends too." I smiled. Yes. "Thanks. Bye!" "Bye!" I hung up. The boys all started cheering at once. I just sat there smiling, I'm free.
"Dude! Now we can continue your plan to ask Mack to be your girlfriend!" Nash exclaimed. I nodded. "Now, wardrobe." Gilinsky said.
***Mack's P.O.V.***
After a half hour of the girls picking out weird clothing combinations, Mahogany picking out wild sparkly outfits and Madison picking out slutty outfits, Brooke and I found a perfect outfit.
It was a light pink dress with a black now belt, a black choker with a heart dangling off it, black earrings, black lace heels, and a pink hand bag with a laced bow.
I got dressed and they started on my make up.
**Matt's P.O.V.**
We all picked out a white shirt, a black tie and a black suit. I was taking Mack to a really expensive restaurant then to a symphony orchestra. She always talks to me about how she's always wanted to go to a symphony orchestra. Then, there, I will ask her to be my girlfriend.
I grabbed a red rose from the nightstand and, after I put cologne on, went across the hall to get Mack.
***Mack's P.O.V.***
I was just putting on my shoes and touching up my outfit when I heard a knock on my door. I figured it was Matt. Mahogany, Brooke, and Madison all sat on our bed. I opened the door to see Matt smiling in the doorway, holding a rose.
"Wow. You look beautiful." He said looking me up and down.
I smiled and kissed his cheek as I grabbed his hand. He gave me the rose and I turned around to wave goodbye to the girls. I turned back around and left with Matt.
"So, where are we going?" I asked, eager to know.
"Well, someone's a bit eager!" He laughed. "Matt! Just tell me please!" I whined. "It's a surprise." He replied. Wow. He's been doing that a lot lately.
We walked out of the hotel and into the parking lot to find a limo awaiting our arrival. Matt opened the door for me and I got in, him following me.
He closed the window that separated us from the driver. He then kissed me by my surprise. I kissed back after I realized what was going on. "Wait, Matt?" I asked as I pulled away. "What's wrong?" He responded. "What about Blake? Your girlfriend?" I started to get worried. Matt and I have been having this little unofficial relationship behind her back. I totally forgot about her. "Don't worry, babe. She's taken care of. We broke up." I smiled and nodded, kissing him again.

We arrived at the restaurant he had reservations at. I sat down at the table and Matt started talking. "Are you excited for tonight?" I laughed, "I would be if I knew what we were doing." "Fine. I'll tell you. But it won't be as fun to see your reaction." I grabbed his hand on the table. "Please!" "Okay, fine. We're going to a symphony orchestra." I screeched. "Oh! Thank you Matt!" He laughed. "Your welcome babe." He kissed my hand.

We've listened to the orchestra for 6 hours. It finally ended and we were both exhausted. It was already about 10:00PM. We walked out side and took a stroll through a nearby park. It was dark and it started to rain.
"Oh! Matt!" I laughed he put his arm around me and gave me his jacket.
We sat down on a bench. "Mack, there's been something I've been meaning to ask you. I don't really know how. I've never officially done this before. Like, for real." He started and my stomach started to twist and turn and flutter around. I just watched him. He was so handsome, I never truly looked at him. I just watched him as he babbled, brainlessly and he also was laughing. All I could hear in my head was the tune to You'll Be In My Heart, from Tarzan.
"I guess, what I'm trying to say is, will you be my girlfriend?" He finished. I had tears in my eyes. All the times in my room watching him on vine, writing letters to him that would never send, moving away from all my friends and then meeting him so my parents could make up for it.
"Umm, Mack?" I looked up at him. "Yes." He smiled and let out a breath he was probably holding. He hugged me and I just kissed him. It was perfect. We were kissing in the rain.
Matthew Lee Espinosa and I, Mackenzie Snow Cliffords, were kissing in the rain after he asked me to be his girlfriend.
I'm living every girl's dream.
