--With Ross--

Ross is pacing around the house.

Ross: Where is she?! She's supposed to be in bed, asleep!

Laura grabs Ross by the shoulders.

Laura: Ross calm down! She'll turn up shortly!

There's a loud bang coming from outside the house which takes the attention away from Aubrey missing. Ross and Laura exchange glances.

Laura: Go and see who's at the door.

Ross whines.

Ross: Why can't you?

Laura: Because I'm in bed!

And with that Laura runs upstairs and closes the bedroom door. Ross groans.

Ross: Very funny Laura!

With that Ross walks to the door and opens it. Ross glares at the person.

??: Look, I can explain!

Ross: Aubrey where the hell have you been?!

Aubrey sighs.

Aubrey: I was out.

Ross: With who?

Aubrey sighs and mumbles.

Aubrey: Uncle Riker.

Ross: I'm sorry, I didn't hear.

Aubrey speaks up so Ross could hear her.

Aubrey: I was out with Uncle Riker.

Ross' eyes widen.

Ross: WHAT?!

Aubrey lies through her teeth.

Aubrey: Dad don't worry, he didn't do anything!

Ross: Really?

Aubrey nods.

Ross: Truthfully?

Aubrey nods and lies again.

Aubrey: Yup, nothing happened.

Ross: Ok.

With that Ross walked away, Aubrey sighed with relief and went up to bed.

--Next day--

Everyone's downstairs but Ryder and they're eating breakfast.

Ross: Aubrey, I have trouble believing what you said last night.

Aubrey: Ok well, which bit are you troubled with?

Ross: The bit when you said you and Uncle Riker did nothing.

Aubrey: Why don't you believe me?

Ross: Because I've seen.

Aubrey froze, she put down her cutlery and walked upstairs to her room and slammed the door shut. Ross sighs and Laura looks at Ross confused.

Laura: What's going on?

Ross pulls out his phone and showed Laura the picture. Laura gasps.

Laura: It could be an edit?

Ross: Ok, but how would people know Riker loves Aubrey? Nobody knows apart from this family!

Laura sighs and places her hand on Ross'.

Laura: Go and talk to her.

Ross sighs and hits his head on the table multiple times.

Ross: I talk to her anyways, she doesn't want me to be mad at her, that's why she lied.
