The Three Boys

Chapter 13

Ryder:
Goodnight. Love you *hearts*

I smiled.

Me:
Goodnight. Love you too :)

I giggled at the thought of Ryder being my boyfriend. I flopped down on the bed and sighed happily.

I decided to tell Rachel about today. Ryder and I agreed that we should tell Rachel of the surprise.

"Rach!" I called out once I entered her room, the room she was staying at my house.

[A/N: Rachel's staying at Avery's house. Avery's parents are overseas and told her she will either stay at Rachel's or Rachel's gonna stay at Avery's.]

"I had a date with Ryder today,"

"What? He's back?"Rachel sat up on the bed.

"Yeah. He came back today to surprise me," I sat infront of her.

As I told her of today's event, I can't keep the smile off my face.

"Really? Aww, you two are so cute!" Rachel exclaimed.

"Yeah. Oh, and we plan to surprise the guys. Here's the plan,"

———

"I'm scared guys. I'm really scared," I sobbed as covered my face with hand.

Jackson patted my back.

"He's strong. He'll be fine," He told me sadly.

"But what he isn't fine?"

"You need to stop thinking negatively, Ave,"

"Okay, let's just find something to do to keep our mind off this," Rachel said after a moment of silence.

"Like?" Seth asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Movie?"

"Fine with me," He nodded and looked at me.

I sighed. "I guess,"

Jackson picked a movie while Seth when to the kitchen.

I turned to Rachel. She mouthed, "Good job," with a thumbs up.

Let me explain. Ryder had met with an 'accident' and I'm crying over it. We're currently at my house after I told them to meet here to tell them about the news. I was 'informed' by Sam who saw my number under favourites. Apparently, my name was the only name under favourites.

Later, we will go to Pizza Hut. Then Ryder will appear, but me and Rachel will pretend we can't see Ryder. And Ryder will act like a ghost.

Let's hope it works though. It's kinds stupid. Just saying, this is Rachel's plan. She says it will definitely work. Jackson's scared of ghost. And we just need to make it look real enough for Seth.

Halfway through the movie. I screamed on purpose.

"What's wrong?" Seth asked worriedly.

"I-I saw s-someone, a shadow I think, b-behind Jackson," I stuttered while making a frightened face.

I internally laughed at Jackson face. He looked scared.

"You're just tired. You're seeing things wrongly," Seth tried to calm me down.

I shook my head. "I swear I saw it,"

"Oh god, what if it's after Jackson? And maybe it hurt Ryder," Rachel gasp in horror.

"Shut up! I've never done anything bad to make them come after me," Jackson said, glaring at Rachel.

"Then explain why Ave saw it behind you," Rachel said as she crossed her arms around her chest.
