Long chapter

I look at Ryland for help. He nods, indicating he supports. "Okay," I breathe out.

He hugs me tightly, burying his face in my neck. ((Like the pic in the media)) "I love you," he mumbles against my skin.

I hug him tightly. "I love you too," I whisper in his ear.

"Guys," Ryland says quietly. "We have to leave. Riker and I told everyone to leave you alone about this today. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Ross pulls back and goes to my room to get my shit. Ryland wraps his arms around my shoulders. "You're all good. Riker and I know you love each other. All you guys need to do is relax tonight and prove it to everyone tomorrow," he says before walking away.

Ross comes out and grabs my hand. We carry my stuff to the bus as everyone he's situated. I walk to my bunk to let everyone talk to each other, without me. I mainly wanted to be alone. my phone vibrates underneath me. I pull it out from under my pillow.

Ross: are you alright?

I pull the blanket up to my chin before typing back.

Ella: yep

Ross: can we cuddle?

Ella: come lay with me.

I lock my phone and shove it under my pillow. Someone walks into the bunk area and shuffles around. Ross climbs in next to me. "Hi, beautiful," he moves some hair away from my eyes. I flip over so my back is to him. He wraps his arm around my waist. "Are you mad at me?" I shake my head. "Will you talk to me?" I shrug as I close my eyes. "I love you."

"Love you too," I whisper.

"Ella!" Rydel yells as she comes into the bunk area.

I roll over, bumping into Ross. "Let her sleep!" Riker growls.

Ross wraps his arm around me. "Her and Ross need to tell us what the hell is going on!" She snaps.

I bury my face in my pillow. "Shut the fuck up!" I scream.

"As long as she's happy, I don't care. She hasn't been happy in a while and I trust that Ross is going to keep her happy!" Riker shoots back.

"Run away with me," Ross whispers.

I look up at him, confusedly. "What?"

He shrugs. "Not run away, but go somewhere with me. Just us, I want to prove how much I love you," he whispers.

I sit up, hitting my head on the bunk above me. "Shit," I mutter. He lays flat on his back so I can lay on top of him. "When?" I ask as I lay my head next to his.

He shrugs. "When we get back. I'll pick you up late at night, after Riker's asleep. It'll be so amazing that you'll forget everything here," he whispers.

I nod. "Ill think about it," I say.

"It's only 2:20 in the morning! Go back to sleep!" Rocky groans.

Ross gets up. "I'm going to sleep in my bunk. I love you, gorgeous."

I kiss him lightly and roll off of him. "I love you too, night." I smile as he gets off of my bunk.

In the morning, at 9:45am, I look at my phone. Ross texted me at 4:30am.

Ross: I'm really tired. I can't wait for a
huge kiss ;) I love you so so much. You
Are by far the best thing that ever
happened to me. You're so beautiful, so
amazing. You're perfect to me. Don't
forget that you're amazing no matter
what anyone says. I wake up every
morning, thinking of you. I want us
to be together for a long time. I want
to make you happy in anyway I can.
I want you to be happy. I want to be
the one to make you happy. It shouldn't be an occasional thing. It
should be an everyday thing. I love
you. I love your pretty hair, your
beautiful eyes, your perfect smile, your
warm hugs, your sweet kisses, your
soft skin, your hilarious faces, your
corny jokes, I love it all. I love you.

I smile to myself and get up. "Don't tell me he doesn't fucking love me," I slam my phone in front of Rydel, Ellington, Rocky and their parents. They read it and stare at me with wide eyes. I feel arms wrap around my waist and lips press to the back of my neck. "I don't know what to say. That was honestly amazing and I.." I trail off as I turn around in his arms. "Let's do this," I whisper.

He smiles widely and pulls me into the bathroom. "We'll go buy a new car, so no one knows what I'm driving, runaway and when we come back you can have it." He says before kissing me.

I jump into his arms. "I'm so excited," I mumble as we walk out of the bathroom. "We've officially broken up," I state.

Everyone looks at us in shock. "I will always love her, but we both have other things we need to do. But when're we stopping at a hotel?" He asks as he plops on the couch.

"Tomorrow, actually. We'll be there for a few days," Mark says.

Ross and I smirk. "Fun," I smile.

-the next night- Ross' P.O.V

It's 11:30pm and everyone is asleep. I sneak out of my room and go to Ella's. She opens the door and pulls me in. "I was just about to change," she says as she pulls off her shirt.

I walk up behind her and rest my hands on her rib cage. She looks over her shoulder at me. I rest my chin on her shoulder. "I love you," I whisper as I slide my hands down to the button on her jeans.

She looks down at my hands. "I love you more," she says in a shaky voice. I slowly unbutton her pants and slide them down her legs. "Ross," she whimpers.

"I won't hurt you," I say as she steps out of her pants. I slide off my shirt and hand it to her. She puts it on and sits on the bed. "Lay down, babe. We can watch a movie."

She nods and does as I instruct. I lay with her until she falls asleep. I walk back to my room, sadly.
