Secret Love

Chapter 2

"Um...Finding Nemo?" I asked. The Lynches, Ellington, and I were currently seated in my living room. We were trying to figure out a movie to watch.
"No! It's almost twelve! We need to watch a good horror movie!" Rocky smirked. I looked at the time, 11:57 p.m...
"Hell no!" I said. Ross laughed a little.
"I say we watch Pocahontas." Riker smiled. He knew that was my sisters favorite movie when she was little. I smiled and looked down at my lap.
"How about The Lion King?" Ryland asked.
"I haven't seen that movie in forever!" Rydel giggled.
"Me either!" I laughed.
"I vote we watch it!" Riker smiled.
"Me too." Ross agreed.
"Ellington? Rocky? What do you say?" I asked.
"Sure, why not." Rocky sighed. Ellington just shoved another handful of popcorn in his mouth and nodded. I giggled quietly and put the movie in.
I looked around the room as I sat in the recliner on the right side of the couch. Riker, Rocky, Ross, and Ryland were seated on my couch, while Ellington and Rydel were seated in the recliner. The movie began and I settled into my chair.

//////////////////////////////////////////

We were about half way into the movie when a popcorn kernel landed in my lap. I looked up to see a smirk spread across Rocky's face. I rolled my eyes and tossed a piece of popcorn back at him. His smirk grew to a grin as he tossed another piece to me. I smiled at him and reached for another piece when I was pelted with popcorn. I looked up to see the Lynch boys smiling over at me. I grabbed a handful of popcorn and chunked it at the four boys seated on my couch. Ross stood up and raised his bowl of popcorn in the air and yelled "Popcorn fight!" Before chunking a hand full of popcorn at me. I squealed and stood up throwing popcorn at him. Rocky, Ryland, and Riker joined quickly, followed by Ellington and Rydel. Rocky flung a handful of popcorn at me. I squealed attempting to block it with my hands. I failed. Popcorn hit my cheek and fell to the floor. I felt burning in my eyes, causing me to squint. Without thinking I tried rubbing my eyes with my hands to try and make it better. That only made it worse. I backed up until I hit a wall and slid all the way down to the floor. I tried wiping the salt and butter off my hands and onto my black leggings.
"You okay?" I heard a deep voice ask. I took a deep breath in and could smell Rocky's cologne.
"Yeah, I think I got some butter or salt or something in my eye. I'll be fine." I said attempting to open my eyes, but they began watering and I could feel them start to swell.
"Come on. Let's go see what we can do." He said as he helped me stand up. The room fell silent as my body was lifted off the ground. I was carried in Rocky's arms all the way up the stairs and into my guest bathroom. He sat me on the counter and moved a strand of hair out of my face.
"I'm sorry." He mumbled.
"It's okay! It wasn't your fault." I smiled. I still couldn't see good yet.
"Do you think you can stick your head under the faucet and open your eyes?" He asked, changing the subject. I shrugged but slid down off the counter. There was a long silence.
"Rocky, turn the shower head on." I said, finally breaking the silence. I heard him shuffle across the room. The small space was filled with the sound of the shower water on the ceramic walls. Rocky guided me to the shower and helped stand under the water. I managed to get my eyes open and I let the cold water wash them out.
I stepped out from under the water, and since I was now able to see, I cut the shower off. My pajamas were soaked!
"Thanks Rocky." I smiled at him. He smiled at me.
"Welcome." He smirked. "Well, I'll let you change." He said leaving the room. I waited until he was down the stairs before jogging to my room. I peeled my wet clothes off my body and slipped into sweatpants and a tank top. I jogged down my stairs to see all the Lynches at my front door.
"We've gotta go! Sorry." Riker said disappointingly.
"It's okay. I understand." I smiled. They all smiled at me before I walked over to them. They all told me bye and gave me a hug, we'll all except Rocky. Rocky turned to Riker and whispered something in his ear. Riker just nodded and led everyone out. Now it was just me and Rocky standing in my living room.
"You gonna be okay?" He asked. I nodded and smiled.
"Rocky, I just got stuff in my eye. It happens all the time, I'll be fine." I smiled.
"Okay. Making sure." He grinned before pulling me into a hug. I smiled and hugged him back.
"Night shorty." He smirked as he exited my house.
"Night Lynch." I smiled. Now to clean up this mess!
