Hey guys it's Tori! I decided that I shouldn't just leave this story off at a cliffhanger and I'm going to write what I planned the story to end like. I hope you enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matt's POV

I can't believe how things have changed, Lacey and I started out as kindergarten buddies and now that's history. Lacey got out of her coma 2 weeks after the car accident, the doctors didn't think that she was going to wake up but I knew she wasn't going to give up. I don't think I've seen Lacey's dad so happy and relived. Once Lacey was allowed out of the hospital we finally went to the beach together--I didn't drive--and we went on many dates after that.

After going all over the US, Magcon ended which was bittersweet because I was gonna miss hanging out with the guys and seeing the fans but it meant more time with Lacey and my family. I even got to graduate high school in my hometown. Lacey and I went to the same college because we were both studying the arts, she wanted to be a photographer and I wanted to be an actor.

We've been dating for 6 years and I've known Lacey my whole life, we've stayed together through the ups and downs, and today I'm going to propose. It sounds crazy but I love her and I've asked my parents, Lacey's dad, Austin, and all the guys from Magcon--they've met Lacey several times-- and none of them are against it. The tough part is getting Lacey to say yes.

I've planned it all out, I'm going to take Lacey to the treehouse that we built when we were little and that we went to on our first date. I figured that since it'll be our last date before we are engaged--hopefully-- that it should be really special. The guys are have been helping me decorate it and I think it's perfect. When we get there, we will eat pizza and watch Forrest Gump just like on our date. Then finally, I'll give a hopefully romantic proposal and pray that she says yes. If she says no I honestly don't know what I'll do, but if she says yes I am going to be the luckiest guy in the world.

"Hey." Taylor said as he walked into my room.

"Hey." I said.

"Have you asked Lacey on your date yet?" He asked.

"No. I'm about to call her. What should I say? Should I tell her that's it's a special date? Should I tell her-"

"Matt, calm down. All you have to do is ask her to be ready for a date at 6 and to dress nice. Just relax." Taylor said, partially calming me down.

"Right," I said, "I'll call her right now."

As I started to dial my hand waved over the 'call' button. I don't know why I'm so nervous, I've asked Lacey on plenty of dates. This one shouldn't be any different.

"Just give me the phone." Taylor says impatiently as he grabs my phone and dials Lacey's number.
Taylor and Lacey's convo
T: hey Lacey its Taylor.
L: hey Taylor. why are calling me from Matt's phone?
T: because he wanted to ask you out on a date tonight at 6 but was too scared to do it
L: why would he be scared?
T: I don't know just be ready by 5:45 and dress nice
**Taylor hangs up**

"I could've asked her myself." I said taking my phone back from Taylor.

"Yea, but you took too long so I did it for you. Your welcome in advance." Taylor said as he took a bow.

"I just want everything to be perfect." I said.

"And it will be. Lacey's not gonna care how romantic it is because she's already in love with you and nothing is going to change that." Taylor said.

"Yea I guess so."

"Now start getting ready, the guys and I will be waiting downstairs." Taylor said walking out of my room.
