UNEXPECTED (A Riker Lynch fanfiction)

Chapter 9: Bonfire

Riker's P.O.V.

At around 6:30, everyone was gathered around the bonfire. I sat next to Rydel and I saved a seat for Kyla.

I saw her coming from a distance with a huge smile on her face. I was going to signal her to come sit by me but she sat directly opposite next to......Austin? Why was she sitting with Austin? Since when have they been friends? They couldn't stop laughing with each other.

I leaned over to Rydel and asked, "Hey, why are Kyla and Austin so 'friendly'?" using air quotations. "Oh! Austin asked Kyla out so they're going on a date tomorrow," Rydel said adding a squeal in the end.

At that moment, my heart sank to my stomach and my whole world crumbled before me as I watched my favorite girl in the world with another guy by her side. I felt tears but I held them back. I couldn't let her know I was heart broken. I had to suck it up for the night, even if it meant not talking to her.

Kyla's P.O.V.

I was having the best time with Austin. I really think we're hitting it off. We may not have lots of things in common but I guess I can get used to the things he likes. "So, what time are you picking me up tomorrow?" I asked. "How about 6:30?" he asked. I smiled at him,"Perfect."

We spent the rest of the night talking and laughing until it was time to go home. I had a really great time with Austin and I absolutely can't wait for my date tomorrow.

The guys dropped me and Becca off at the apartment, but I noticed something strange. Riker didn't speak the whole car ride home. He's never quiet! He's the first one to argue with Rocky when he farts too loud. I'm not gonna ask him though because I don't wanna get him more upset. I just really hope he's okay.

Riker's P.O.V.

I am most certainly not okay. I didn't say anything the whole ride home and I didn't even sit with Kyla. I just came home, showered and plopped onto my bed. I stuffed my face into my pillow and sobbed lightly.

I didn't even realize when Rocky came into the room. He placed his hand on my back and asked, "Dude, are you okay?" I turned over and when he saw the tears streaming down my face his expression turned from concerned to worried. "What' strong, why are you crying?" he asked really fast.

I took a deep breath. "Kylaisgoingoutwithanotherguyandilovehertoomuchtoseeherwithsomeoneelse," I said way too quickly. Rocky just sat there with a blank face. "WHAT?!" he asked. I sighed and said, " Kyla is going out with another guy and I love her too much to see her with someone else." His eyes turned wide and his lips turned into a smile.

"YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!, FINALLY YOU CAME TO YOUR SENSES!!!!!!" he screamed. "What do you mean?" I asked. "We all want you two to be together and knowing that you like her is going to make it even more adorable," he said. "You think we're adorable?" I asked. "Uh of course. I don't think there is another couple who could beat you guys," he said like a super fangirl. I blushed and looked down. I really do love Kyla and I just wish I can call her mine. "Aww you're blishing," Rocky cooed.

I threw a pillow at him and shouted," GO TO BED!" He just laughed and said,"You're violent just like Kyla." I smiled to myself as I lay down. I love the idea that my family thinks we're cute together. My smile faded as I thought of her with Austin. I may loose her forever. No, I'm not gonna let that happen! She's my life and I can't let her go so easily. I reluctantly fell asleep thinking of Kyla. BEST. THOUGHTS. EVER!!!!
