Hayden's POV:

My head lies against Nate's chest, as he runs his fingers through my hair. We stayed in to watch movies. I look up at him and he smiles down. Nate leans down and kisses me gently. I smile after he pulls away.

"You're beautiful," Nate admits looking into my eyes.

My face heats and I turn away.

"I'm not," I whisper.

"Hayden. What I did I regret, I made you feel horrible about yourself, but I love you. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met. Don't forget that."

I feel a tear fall and I hug Nate. He lifts my chin. Caressing my face, wiping away the tears, and kisses me again. Holding my hips down. I giggle as he pushes me down on the couch. Nate bites my lip, causing me to stifle a moan.

"Oh god," I hear Sam say.

I pull away horrified. Nate sits up and we look at the four. We keep from laughing as I sit up and look at them.

"Can't leave them alone," Nash says.

I roll my eyes as Nate pulls me to his lap, and Sam and Jack J sit beside us. The other three figure out where to sit. They change the movie and I just slip my fingers through his.

"Hayden," Sam says.

"Yeah?"

"Would you mind going upstairs for awhile? We need to talk," he says.

"Sure, Sammy."

I stand and let go of Nate's hand. I walk up the steps and once they think I'm gone. I sit at the second step. That's just obscured from their view.

"Did you get it, Sam," I hear Nate ask.

"Yep. Now go up there."

My eyes widen and I run up the steps quietly. I sit on our shared bed staring at the ceiling. Nate knocks on the doorframe. I look at him with his hands behind his back.

Nate sits beside me, making signs for me to sit up. My eyes scan his face I look down at the violet box sitting in his hands. Nate quickly opens the box and I see a golden lemon colored ring. I look at him.

"It's a promise ring. You can reject me. It for me to promise something to you."

I smile and take it. Placing it on my middle finger. He kisses me and I smile.
