Family Before Fame

Chapter 4

Rylee POV 

I see Ross lift the camera up to take a picture of the scenery. We are standing in line for the deep sea diving. Today we get go underwater with scuba gear and look at fish and coral reefs. 

"Smile babe." Ross snaps a picture of me. 

"Oh god delete it." I go to grab the camera from him, but he holds it above it his head. 

"Nope you're to pretty to delete." Ross puts the camera back in the bag. 

"I will later." I tell him. 

We move up to the front of the line where someone is standing waiting to be paid the money. Ross hands him a crumpled up hundred dollar bill. The guy huffs and looks to see if it's real which I hope it is. 

"Thank you and enjoy you're deep sea dive. Continue on inside where people will be to help you suit up and explain the rules. Also make sure to check out the gift shop after." The man sounds so happy to be here. 

"Thank you." Ross smiles and we go on in the shop. 

"Hello." One girl smiles. 

"OMG it's Ross Lynch." Another girl widens her eyes. "Will you marry me?" 

"I'm sorry, but I have a wife." Ross wraps an arm around my shoulders. 

"Oh too bad I'm better." She smirks. 

"Nope don't look like it or in that case even close." Ross burns her. "Now we are here to get suited up please." 

The girls immediately go back and get our suits. Ross and I already have wet-suits on, we got those yesterday while here in Hawaii.  They hand us oxygen tanks to put on like a backpack and googles to put over our eyes. 

Ross tells them our shoe size and they grab us flippers for our feet. Ross sticks the thing in his mouth and starts walking around like a crazy person. I grab the camera and snap a picture of him walking around. I stick it back in the bag. 

"Now would you like a disposable water proof camera for the underwater fun?" Ally asks, the less crazy fangirl asks. 

"Yes please."  I smile at her when she hands one to me. 

"No paying?" Ross pulls out his wallet. 

"It comes with the hundred dollars you spent." Ginny, the crazy fangirl, tells us. 

"Oh ok. Let's go put our stuff in a locker. " Ross pulls my hand along. 

~~~

"Ross looks at that fish." I point to the blue fish swimming a little below us. 

People deep see dive in groups, our group is a little in front of us. We have been stopping to take pictures. Ross does most of the picture taking, I point out the stuff in the ocean. 

My legs are getting tired from swimming so much, but luckily were like two minutes from finishing. After this we are going to dinner at a this beach side place and it's like a food truck almost. Then the ice cream we found on our first day here. Today is like the third day here, we leave in four days. 

"Rylee watch out." Ross pulls me out of the way just in time for school of fish to swim where I was. 

"Thanks Ross." I grab the camera from him and snap a picture of the fish. 

Two minutes later I pull myself onto the dock to take all of this heavy gear off. I swear I just lost all of my baby fat in that deep sea dive. By the time we get all changed and stuff taken back it's time to head to dinner. 

"Ready babe?" Ross puts his wallet back in his jean pocket. I know crazy husband who wears jeans all the time even in the summer. 

"Ready to go eat, yes." I put my phone in my purse. 

Since this food place is like two miles away we decided it might be better to walk and then after call the driver. The two miles we spend walking are awesome, but also horrible at the same time. Ross tripped and fell on the way so know he has more holes in his jeans than usual. We spend most of the time talking about the kids and how we miss them so much. So Ross calls on the way there, I talk to Reese before he presses the end button on accident. 

"I found it." Ross points to a place off in the distance that is light up by fairy lights. 

"It looks better in real life than on the computer." I laugh. 

We are here to get our mind of the death of Romeo, Ross seems to be getting better since he is the one who took it the hardest out of the two of us. Ross cried for two days after we found out he died. He was a wreck at the funeral, no one spoke they just buried him and we all prayed. 

"Rylee what do you want to eat?" Ross asks me again. 

I hadn't even realized that we are now standing outside the restaurant. 

"Um...just a cheeseburger will be fine. No ketchup-" 

"Or pickles, I remember." Ross finishes my sentience for me. "Oh and lots of extra fries with barbecue sauce." Ross smirks.

"You are correct. This time I want a basket of fries to split with my husband and barbecue sauce." I kiss his cheek before he heads inside to get our food. 

I walk around finding a table for two near the sand on the beach, perfect I thought. I sit down one of the chairs and wait for Ross to come. 

"I'm sorry to bother, but is this table taken?" A teenage girl asks. 

"Not for right now." I motion for her to sit down. 

"Thank you so much." She frowns and rest her head on the table. 

"Do tell we whats wrong?" I put my hand over hers. "I would love to help besides I have something wrong too." 

"Well we father left about two years ago for another women, we don't see him much now. My mother picked up an alcholic man named Ross. He got my mom pregnant a little while back, and when she found out it was a girl he killed the baby. He said I'm next." The girl sobs. 

"Ross?" That name sounds familiar and not because it's my husbands name. 

"What's this mans last name?" I push. 

"Johnson, I believe." She wipes the falling tears away. 

Could my father have faked his own death.
