Fresh Start, New Beginnings

Chapter 10

After their picnic Abigail and Ryan decided to head back to Abigail's house, that way she could send an email to the newspaper that was running the story, speak to Nick and call her Mom "Can I get you a drink of anything?" Abigail asked as she walked into the kitchen and flipped up her laptop lid.

"Er...yeah coffee please" Ryan smiled as he explored the Kitchen and joining lounge "Wow this place is incredible"

"Thank you" Abigail put two cups underneath her coffee machine and made both coffees, she then handed Ryan a cup and took one over to the kitchen counter for herself "It is starting to look like a home now"

"Oh my god is that...may I" Ryan had spotted the huge black grand piano in the corner of the lounge.

"Yeah absolutely" Abigail smiled as she opened her emails and grabbed her cell phone, she couldn't help but smiled when Ryan took his jacket off and sat at the piano. He started to play around with the keys "Oh hey mom it's Abi, I just wanted to return your calls, don't worry I will try again later love you" Abigail left her mom a message.

"Do you play?" Ryan looked up and paused for a second, while he waited for Abigail to reply.

"Yeah" Abigail nodded "I have done since I was 4 years old, I did it willingly though, no bribes...although bribes could have been a very clever idea" she giggled as she walked over to the piano. Abigail sat on the stool beside Ryan, she could see him watching her out of the corner of her eye. As Abigail started to play Ryan seemed shocked, he just listened for a few minutes as she let her fingers glide along the keys, she played one of her favourite piece by Debussy- Claire De Lune.

"Wow, that was incredible" he finally exhaled when she had finished playing "You really are a woman of many talents"

"I do try my best" Abigail laughed before pausing, she realised Ryan hadn't taken his eyes away from hers. She was sat incredibly close to him at this point. Neither of them spoke as they both moved forwards for a kiss...but this time it wasn't to end at that.

As the kiss intensified Abigail put her hand up and touched Ryan's face, before moving it round to the back of his neck. Ryan grabbed the back of Abigail's neck and pulled her round, he stood up and lifted her onto the piano keys. Ryan was now stood between Abigail's legs, as they continued as they continued deeper into their lust.

Ryan had started to run his hands up Abigail's thighs and was lifting her dress, she had undone most of his buttons and was pulling at his shirt. She groaned as Ryan kissed her neck, then she moved her hands from his shirt down to his suit pants.

Ryan stopped kissing her for a moment and rested his forehead on hers, his heart was racing and his breathing was heavy. He watched as she started to undo his pants...then suddenly the phone rang.

Abigail tried to ignore it but it was no use "Shit, I better..." she gasped for air.

"Get it" Ryan moved to one side and helped Abigail up, she rushed to her phone and answered it. Ryan straightened up his clothes while Abigail spoke to whoever was on the phone.

"Listen I pretty much figured that out for myself" Abigail frowned "I knew there was something wrong today, why didn't you tell me. I thought we decided a long time ago that keeping secrets from each other was pointless?"

Ryan moved over to the counter where Abigail was sat and leant beside her "I know Nick, but you should have told me" she had started to play with the hem on her dress "Yeah ok i'll speak to you soon and no I don't really care, as long as you're happy"

"The brunette he was with?" Ryan remembered seeing Nick on the article pictured with a mystery woman. Abigail nodded and then opened up an email file marked fan mail "What's that?" he asked when he saw an email with the subject 'I hope you die'

"Oh just some of my not so supportive fans making themselves known" Abigail frowned as she read the hateful words, Ryan was stunned he had never had any kind of emails like this one "Here it is" she sighed as she opened the email which had been sent by Nick's mom.

Ryan didn't speak he just read quietly, he couldn't believe the things he was reading 'skank' 'whore' 'junkie' to name but a few lovely words which were used "That's disgusting" Ryan was starting to get angry "Why does she speak to you like that?"

"It's a long story, short version is she wanted us to pay her a monthly income so she didn't have to work, I refused...I mean why should she get an income when both my parents are working" Abigail explained.

"So this is about money?" Ryan shook his head "And out of interest how do all the abusive emails end up in that fan mail folder?"

"Tony or Harriet filter them for me" Abigail explained "Tony doesn't think I need to see them"

Ryan couldn't hide a cheeky smile that was creeping across his face "I better not send you anything inappropriate by email then had I?" He teased.

"Exactly how inappropriate" Abigail closed the lid of her laptop and turned her full and tenting to the gorgeous guy leaning beside her.

"Very, Very inappropriate, just like the thoughts which are going through my head right now" Ryan moved so that he was now leaning over Abigail, she had turned to face him and was now sat between his arms which were still leaning on the counter. Abigail knew exactly where this was heading, she wrapped both arms around Ryan's neck and kissed him hard. Ryan moved his has away from the counter and put them on Abigail's waist and lifted her onto the counter top in one swift movement. Both of them got lost in the moment "Are you protected?" Ryan tried to catch is breath to ask the obvious question, the last thing either of them wanted for this to end badly. Abigail could hardly speak either she nodded and whispered "Yes"

Abigail wasn't really sure how it had come to this, nor was she complaining. Ryan was pretty much the perfect guy, he had just right amount of fame to understand her. But he didn't have too much fame which made it impossible to have a private life...

The couple let the moment consume them completely and this time there were no interruptions...
