Dark Paradise // Zach Herron

Chapter 50

"Is Emily coming?"
Daniel asked the stressed out boy.

"No. She's still in Texas."

Zach had recently found out that Emily was actually pregnant, but wanted to give the kid up for adoption. Zach wants to keep it and he's told Emily many of times. Zach didn't want to give away his mistake. Whether it was a mistake or not, he didn't want to his risk his own daughter or sons life. He'd still love them the same.

"People are starting to arrive"
David yelled to all five boys.

They all panicked and hurried to put on their tux and finish their hair. Jack hurriedly made sure his curls were perfect for everyone, especially the fans.

They all looked out the windows of the house to see who was early. Sydnie was the first person to actually arrive with her friend Landon. They all watched as people started to pile in their backyard and became emotional with the amount of people that supported and loved them.

"She's gonna be here, Zach"
Jonah reassured Zach.

Zach nodded and went outside to talk to the guests arriving. He noticed Corbyn's sister there so he went to talk to her, seeing as they're the same age.

It passed an hour since guests started to come and zach paced around the party area, looking for his girl or even James.

Bella was in an uber with James. It was taking forever due to all the traffic around the why don't we house because of this night. They didn't mind though, they weren't going to miss their singing.

She took a picture of her and James and posted it on Snapchat to kill time. Zach saw the picture and half smiled knowing that she was for sure coming.

Once Bella and James arrived to the house they walked up the lit path. Bella admired the work done on the house and the beautiful flowers they planted around. Once she entered the backyard she saw the booths, photo booths, stage, food, and saw the many people there. She smiled as she whispered "you did it".

"I'll be back"
James said as he walked over to someone else.

Bella started to walk around, admiring the decorations. She felt a small tear go down her face. She couldn't help but cry. Bella was so happy for the boys and what they accomplished. She was glad that she could sit by them throughout their journey, even if it caused so much drama with her being there.

She felt someone's hand wiggle around her waste as she jumped and quickly turned around.

Zach stood there with tears going down his face, cheesy smile, and his eyes lit up. She couldn't help but hug him, more like squeeze him.

"I'm so glad you could make it."
He yelled, very happily.

"I'm glad you guys invited me. Hey congratulations on your one year of being a band."

"Thank you so much"
He said as 'Air Of The Night' played in the background.

She watched as Zach stopped talking and Smooth stepped to the part of the song that says too. She looked around and noticed the other four boys doing the same exact thing. She laughed at how dorky they were.
