The Survivors (Ross Lynch Fanfic)

Chapter 33

Chapter 33

Me and Ross walk back silently to his car. I glare up into the sun, squinting from its violent rays. "What a day," I say, breaking the silence. "Yeah," Ross replies, nodding in agreement. He bites his bottom lip anxiously. I have a feeling he's hiding something from me, but I have no clue what it is. "What's wrong?" I ask as we pull into his drive way. "I- I think.. Riker likes you." I am speechless for a few minutes. Is my brain processing his words right? "What?" I go, looking up at him. "Riker likes you," he says more confidently, yet full of shame. I shake my head,

"what? How do you know that?"

"Don't you see the way he looks at you?"

"No.. But why would he like me? I'm your girlfriend."

"I don't know.. He just does."

"Can you get someone to ask him if he likes me? So we can be sure of this?"

"Yeah. I'll ask Rydel to talk to him."

"Okay. That's good."

The air falls quiet. Only the hush sound of a calm sudden breeze makes a strand of my hair fall across the bridge of my nose. I can tell how much Ross is hurting. It's written all over his face. He's been like this for a few days, now, and finally he had the guts to tell me now. But what if his theory is true? What if Riker does have a thing for me..? And if he does... What happens to this...

What happens to everything how it is right now..?

And the scary thing, is I do not have that answer..

AN- Sorry for the short chapter, guys! But the next one will be better! The next chapter will be the last, and it will lead into my next book which is a sequel to this one!
