Just Another Rucas Love Story

Chapter 9

Hey guys. I'm so so so sorry I haven't updated at all. I currently just got back from Flordia and I wasn't able to update and it was stressful before because of school and stuff. I'm still so sorry. But 800 reads?? That's crazy! I love you all so much. xxxx ~ lovatic_jonas

"Road trip to where?" I suddenly ask.
"What about Niagara Falls?" Maya said

I look at Lucas and Lucas looks at Farkle and Farkle looks at Auggie and Auggie is looking at Maya and Maya is smirking at me.

"We have to ask my mom" I blurt out.
"What if i already possibly asked her..." Maya said
"And we're all ready packed..." Lucas admits. Why didn't he tell me ?
"I guess I'll go pack my stuff.. But who's driving?"
"I want to, since I'm the oldest" Lucas says and everybody agrees with him.

As Maya and I go into my room to pack everything I mostly let Maya do it all. I want to sneak a blade or pill but it's too risky, way tooooo risky. Mostly with Lucas around. I'm still sick that I kissed Lucas and haven't told Maya. I haven't even really told her about my cutting and purging. Only bits and pieces. I really need to talk to Lucas again tonight.

As we finish packing we all lock everything and get ready to leave I just back and I hear Lucas say in my ear as he wraps his arms around my waist "a little bit longer and you'll be fine." Quoting Nick Jonas, one of my favorite songs ever. I smile and turn to him and he kisses my cheek.

Even though I still feel bad about not telling them yet, I feel bad for a lot of other things so more stress for me, right ?

We pile into the car and before we started driving Maya wants to get a selfie with everybody. So Farkle takes her phone and gets everybody in it. It's a great picture. Once Maya gets her phone back she posts it on Instagram. I soon get the notification on my phone, so does everybody besides Auggie, it saids.

Classic Maya and me stuff. We all have a lot of followers but nobody really cares who has more. Maya posts the most. Then probably farkle and then Lucas and me. My last post was almost three weeks ago, which is kinda long, but for us the longest.

Within 5 minutes I was pasted out sleeping, I was falling asleep to Believe In Me by Demi Lovato.

~ 4 hours later ~
"Riley, Riley, wake up." I hear Maya and farkle shake me. I groan and start to sit up.
"Lucas is getting gas so I can start driving" farkle informations me.
"And I called front," Maya saids
"We also moved the suitcases around and pulled down the back so auggie can lay down there, he's with Lucas getting snacks."

I look at my phone, and see all the notifications from everybody when it hits me that Lucas and I will be in the back together.

"How much longer do we have?" I ask
"Well we got a hotel like a hour from here and they're getting things for tomorrow since we aren't in New York anymore, way too much traffic, so driving around it" farkle explains

As they finally come back we all get in and start the drive. Since traffic was terrible on the way here it's 10 and Massachusetts is kinda far.

Once we got to the hotel Maya and farkle got our bags while I carried Auggie in and Lucas got everything figured out. There was only two beds for Lucas, auggie, and Farkle slept in one and Maya and I slept in the other.

I was up a lot of the shower from a rest earlier decided to wake Lucas up, but he was surprisingly already up.

"C'mon, let's take a walk to the pool" as he leads out of the room closing the door quietly.

Once we get down to the pool I turn to him and say quietly
"I feel terrible for keeping this from Maya and Farkle"
"I know, me too. But remember it's your call if you want too, I'm just here to help you."
"I think it would help me if I told them, first thing tomorrow, but how?"
"Hmm... What if we tell them at breakfast." He suggests.
"Or...... We could always make a video of our friendship and add it in the new step in for everybody's friendship." He smiles at me and rubs my arm. "You're beautiful self did it again."
