When I walk in the door, Riker looks at me confused when he sees the suitcase. "Moving in already?" He comes and takes the suitcase from my hand and takes it to Ross' room.

"No, but I didn't know I was staying here for a few days until dad told me. Your sister is dead." We laugh together and I set my coffee down on the table, and hang the keys back up. "I better take this to Ross and tell him his car made it back in one piece."

I walk into the garage and he smiles at me, but didn't stop playing the guitar. I set the coffee down on counter, and he just nods and I had back inside. Riker is at the television playing video games and I go sit at the table.

He turns and looks at me, confused. "You can come in here if you want to." Just than the game let's out a deep sound, and he turns back quick. "Damn it." I just laugh, and go join him at the couch. Beats sitting by myself.

He plays for a few minutes while I try to keep up with what he is doing. He gets tired of playing and puts it down. "How's Kayleigh?"

Maybe I was wrong about him. He's asking about her, a good sign. I finish chewing before answering his question. "Don't know really. I haven't seen her since the other night, and she doesn't care much for talking on the phone. I guess she is okay after you flattered her." I look at him guiltly.

He only smiles at me. I see he isn't going to say anything. "You are all she talked about the whole ride back to her house. She wouldn't shut up, I mean, really? I really got to her, I'll tell you that much."

He laughs and looks like he's flattered. "I only was being me."

"I know, but she has always had a dire crush on you, and I think he loves you now. I have never seen her so happy, and we have been best friends since elementary school."

"Well I guess I did something right." He smiles at me, "I really like her too. I am just worried it might get weird. You know, your and Ross and Kayleigh and me?"

I start to laugh, "are you serious? That would be the coolest. She's my best friend, and you two are brothers. Besides, we are all mature," I look at him and crook my eye brow, "or at least I think."

He honestly looked offended. "Hey, I can be mature. I just choose not to be." He reaches over and play punches me on the arm. Than he gets serious, "can I ask her out?"

"You don't need my permission. But she has been hurt, a lot. And she is not as laid back as I am. She can be quite grown up and serious at times. She knows what she wants out of life, where I still have no clue." I think about what I just said, and change the last part. "Well, at least I didn't a week ago."

He smiles at me, knowing what I'm talking about. "You know, you and Ross are perfect for each other. You both are laid back, and fun to be around. Your are just fresh meat. If I pick on you too much, let me know." He smiles a sneaky grin.

I laugh at him. "You're all cool. I'm an only child who lives with her dad that works way to much, with a mother who passed away when I was really young. It's cool having you around, trust me."

He only nods. He picks his controller back up and gets back to playing his game. I reach my iPod or of my pocket, and put on my headphones on quietly and turn on the music. I downloaded more on here after the point out that all I had was R5 on here, and I had hours with of music on here now.

After an hour, I get bored, so I decided to sneak a picture of Riker and send it to Kayleigh. He flips out. Next thing I know, my phone is ringing. I go to the table and see it's her. I bring the phone to Riker, "it's for you."

He smiles and answers it. Apparently we have a double date tonight. I roll my eyes when Riker looks at me. He only smiles. Than they start just chatting. I decide to go back out to the garage after taking my plate to the dishwasher.

The music has stopped, and everyone is joking around now. I walk behind Ross and sit sideways on the bench behind him and wrap my arms around his waste. He turns and kisses me on the cheek and wrapped his arms over mine. I just lay my head on his back and listen to him breathe. "Yes, life of perfect "

Ross tightens his hold on me. I meant to say that to myself, forgetting I am in his ear. I look over at Rydel and Ellington. He sitting on the floor and she is sitting in front of him leaning against him. She smiles at me, and I smile back snuggling closer to Ross. Once the conversation turns to sports, she gives Ellington a kiss on the cheek and Congress forces Ross' hold off of me and drags me off. I look at him with pleading eyes. I didn't want to leave him.

When we get inside, she turns to me. She stares at me for a second. "I forgot to tell you before you left that you were staying here for a few days. Sorry."

I could never be mad at her, she knew that. I just smiled at her before speaking. "I'll forgive you, on one condition." She nods. "Riker set a double date up for tonight. Him and Kayleigh and me and Ross. Make me pretty?"

She laughs, "Sweetie, your already pretty. I won't have to do much." Than she grabs my hand and drags me off to her room.
