Chapter 22

JACKSON POV***

Two weeks. It's been two weeks since I got Rylin back. We finally was able to set up the scene of the crime and take pictures before sending them to Mr. Emmons from Sounthside and Rylins mother to complete faking her suicide. We learned that Emily was also kidnapped a couple years after Delaney was and that her family lived only a few towns over- where she is now staying. Delaney contacted her parents and told them the fake story that I found her knocked out beside the road, to avoid questioning (especially since I killed Darrel.) Her parents are now coming to get her and Jaydin.

We decided that since we faked Rylin's suicide that it would be best to change her name to Sylar McCord. We are now enrolling her intothe local high school so she can graduate. 

"Hey Lugnut!" I turned around to see Rylin in a cute red sun dress and brown boots. Her long ribbon hair was in waves down to her waist, with a small amount of makeup. "Do I look okay?" She asked while doing a small spin. "You look great babe." I said while bringing her into a kiss. "Are you ready?" I asked when we pulled apart. She nodded her head and pulled my hand, tugging me out the door.

Once we got to the truck she turned to face me."Sooo what are we doing?" She asked while drawing out the O. I gave her a small smirk. "You'll see." She crossed her arms over her chest in frustration before grumbling, "Fine." I chuckled at her imaturity and brought her knuckles up to my lips for a small peck.

"We're here." She looked around in confusion. "Here where? All I see is a feild." I smiled. "Nope. This is a tailgate for two underneath the stars." Before she could answer I slipped out of the cab and went to the bed of my truck. I grabbed the covers and laid them down with a couple pillows and a bottle of red wine. When I turned  around Rylin had a huge grin on her face while watching me work.

"This was creative." Rylin said while sipping her wine. "You haven't even seen the good part." She looked curious before I gave her a look that said 'just wait' she nodded her head while we continued to lay there waiting for the sun to drop below the horizon.

The yellows flirted with a pale shade of pink making a beautiful mixture. The suns hot rays cast downwards onto our skin heating us up while we watched the sun, before it left only to be replaced by the moon. "This is the good part." I said softly as we both watched in wonder. "It's gorgeous." Rylin murmured in barely a whisper. I nodded my head in agreement before reaching over and intertwining our fingers. Her soft delicate hand matched perfectly with my larger one as we both drifted asleep under the stars.

RYLIN POV***

The next morning I woke up with my head on Jackson's chest. I lifted my brown eyes to meet his blue ones starring back at me. There was a small smile on his face as he ran his fingers through my hair. "Goodmorning beautiful." I smiled up at him. "Morning." He chuckled back at me making his chest rumble against my cheek. "I love you laying there and all but I'm really uncomfortable." I laughed at him before using my hands to push myself into a sitting position. I gave him a small peck before straightening out my dress and getting out of the truck.

When we walked into the house Zach and Brooke was laying on the couch watching The Titantic. Brooke being the girl she was was teary eyed. Her head was resting in Zach's lap while he looked at her with love. "Hey guys." I said as I walked through the house to the kitchen. "Hey." They both coursed back to me.

When I walked over to the fridge I felt two arms circle my waist. "Rylin?" I spun around in his arms to meet good blue orbs. When I opened my mouth to speak he pressed a finger to my lips. "I know our ride as been a little bumpy. But I want to ask you a question." I nodded my head with a smile as I knew where this was heading. "Will you be my girlfriend?" With an excited squeal I slung my arms around his neck, pulling him into a passionate kiss. When we pulled away I put on a neutral face. "Sure." I muttered like it was no big deal making Jackson chuckle and bring me in for another kiss.
