Rydel POV
I sat on the lawn chair, the sun beating on my body as the boys goofed off in the pool.
"Hey Rydel," Ratliff said, suddenly leaning over the chair, his moth forming into a smile.
"Hey baby," see, me and Ratliff just started going out a month ago.
"Can I have a kiss?" He asked.
"Sure," I got up and wrapped my arms around his torso and leaned into him to give him a kiss.
However, he suddenly picked me up and ran over to the pool. My legs were wrapped around him as I beat on his chest.
"Ratliff, stop!" I whined.
He laughed as he jumped in the pool. The cold water hit my frigid body as Ratliff let go of me.
"Jerk!" I exclaimed as I got up for air.
"Sorry, I was dared. And I was also dared to make out with you.....so....."
"Shut up!" I exclaimed as I kissed him.
He wrapped his arms around his waist and pushed me against the edge of the pool, grabbing my butt. I moaned in his mouth as his tongue entered my mouth. We kissed some more and then finally broke apart when my phone rang.
He whimpered and squeezed my butt one last time.
"Hey, can someone get that?"I asked
"Got it!" Ryland answered, jumping out and running to my phone on the lawn chair.
He picked up,"Hello?"
A second went by when he dropped the phone, blinked and then ran back to the house.
I raised my eyebrows at the others and went over to my phone.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Oh, hey," someone said back.
I gasped and realized, it was Sara.
I stepped away from the boys and started to talk again.
"Hi...we haven't talked in a while," I mumbled.
"I know, but I need help. Delly, I love him so much. I can't let go! And Justin, he's a jerk! Could one of you just pick me up! Justin is drunk and I need to go."
"Yeah, I'll pick you up," I said nervously.

Sara POV
I sat on the curb for another few minutes and waited for Delly. God, I was so stupid! I had the best friends in the whole world and gave it all up.
Suddenly a car pulled up. I looked up and saw Rydels face and Ross's face in the window.
I slowly got up and opened the car door.
"Hey Sara," Rydel calmly spoke.
"Hey Rydel. Hey Ross,"I replied, my voice shaking.
"Sara, look, we're not mad at you. Yeah, you could have kept in touch, but we understand. You and Ryland went through some serious stuff and we know it was hard. We all still love you and can't wait to have you back as a friend," Ross explained calmly.
"Thanks, Ross," I smiled at him.
About another 5 minutes of catching up we were back at the Lynches.
"Wait guys, can I go see my house real quick. I have been living with Justin and haven't been at my house," I asked.
"Yeah, sure," Rydel replied.
I got out of her car and walked over to my house.
I opened the thick door and looked to see everything was pretty good. I guess it still needed some cleaning since I was gonna live there.
I sighed and walked back to Rydel and Ross. They motiened for me to come on and go inside.
I took a deep breath and walked with them.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the faces of Riker, Ratliff, Stormie, and Mark. No Ryland.
"Hey!"Riker explained.
"Hey," I whispered.
He shot up and wrapped me in a hug. Ratliff then came and joined.
"God, I missed you!" Ratliff whispered sniffing my hair creepily.
I laughed and pushed him away.
Suddenly, steps came down the stairs and a boy came in the room.
I looked up and saw the face of Ryland Michael Lynch.
