UNEXPECTED (A Riker Lynch fanfiction)

Chapter 15: I Love You

Riker's P.O.V.

"Wh-What?" I asked hurt and sadness washing over me. Did Kyla just say no?

"No. Not until you come here and kiss me," she smirked.

A huge smile was tattooed on my face as I set my guitar down and ran towards her. I cupped her face in my hands and crashed my lips on to hers. Fireworks started shooting out everywhere and my stomach started doing backflips. Our lips moved perfectly in sync and Kyla wrapped her arms around my neck, pulling me closer. All the clapping and cheering was drowned out and at that moment, it was just me and Kyla, me and my girl.

We pulled away and pressed our foreheads together. "You have no idea how long I wanted to do that," she said. "Best first kiss ever," I whispered back. "You do realise I won't be able to stop kissing you right?" Kyla smirked. I laughed and wrapped her in a tight hug. Having Kyla in my arms is the best feeling in the world. It lets me know that she's mine forever.

"TIME TO CUT THE CAKE!" my mom and Shelly announced to the crowd. I grabbed Kyla's hand and we both walked to the cake table. 

She jumped on Rydel's back and mom lit the candles.

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Kydel
Happy birthday to you (A/N yes I wrote the whole song....lol)

They blew out the candles together and cut the cake with each other. After that, one by one people started to leave and eventually, it was just the  family left.

Kyla's P.O.V

At around 11:00 my uncles Sheldon and Berthrand were talking with each other when Riker came up to me and slung his arm over my shoulder. "Hey guys," he smiled at us. "Hey Rik," I replied. "We will leave you two alone. Meet us outside Ky, alright?" Uncle Sheldon asked. "Yeah sure," I smiled at him and they left us alone.

I turned to face Riker and he stuffed his hands in his front pockets. "Enjoy your party?" he asked me. "Yeah. Thanks so much for doing all this for me Riker. I really don't deserve it. All this stuff must've cost you a fortune," I said frowning. "You're worth it," he beamed. "Thank you anyway," I giggled. "Anything for you baby girl," he said kissing my forehead. He wrapped me in a tight hug and I rest my head on his shoulder.

One by one tears began rolling off my cheeks. Riker must've noticed because he pulled away and looked at me worriedly. "What's wrong?" "Nothing. It's just that, for the first time in so long I've finally felt....loved I guess. By someone other than family," I smiled tearfully. He wiped away my tears before pulling me closer and giving me a soft yet passionate kiss. We kissed for about 10 seconds and he pulled away smiling. "Oh yeah I definitely feel loved now," I laughed. "Well I do love you," he said wrapping his arm around my shoulders. "I love you too Riker," I replied. I wrapped my arm around his waist and he kissed my forehead before we walked outside to meet the rest of my family.

When we got outside, everyone was sitting around the lawn bench and table and the Lynch kids were on the swing set next to it. "What are you talking about?" I asked uncle Sheldon. "Girl, Red Steel make the finals," he said. "Serious?!" I asked shocked as my Trini cricket fan side started kicking in. "Yeah the finals is Sunday," he said. I sat next to him on the bench and Riker sat with Ross on the swing. This is gonna be an awesome conversation.

Riker's P.O.V.

Since I knew Kyla wouldn't wanna cuddle me for at least the next 2 hours, I sat on one of the swings next to Ross. "Hey Ross," I said. No reply. "Ross," I said waving my hand in front of him. Still no reply. I grabbed the phone that was in his hands and he finally recognized me.

"Dude!" he snapped and grabbed the phone back. "What are you doing?" I laughed. "Talking to Kareina," he said blankly. "On Kyla's phone?" I questioned. "Yeah," he said still annoyed by my presence. I just shook it off and listened to what Kyla and the guys were talking about.

All I could understand was something about Trinidad making the finals in some cricket game. And the most confusing part was none other that my brother, Rocky, was just as engrossed in the conversation as Kyla. "How does he understand this thing?" Ross whispered in my ear. I shrugged my shoulders just as Kyla started screaming something really confusing.

I decided to take this as my opportunity to make an awesome video. Just as I hit record, Kyla started shouting," IF THEY PUT KALLIS TO BOWL FIRST, THEY WILL AT LEAST GET 3 BLASTED WICKETS IN THE FIRST DAMN OVER!!!!" across the table.

I sat there wide eyed but still admired how adorable she was. I posted the video to Instagram with the caption 'My princess is so cute when she screams stuff about sports'. "You are so lucky she doesn't have her phone," Ross said. I just laughed and continued listening to what they were saying.

~3 hours later~

Kyla's P.O.V.

After a long conversation with my family, we decided it was time to go to bed.

I jumped in the shower and took a long cold bath. When you live in Trinidad, you feel warm at night. I came out and threw on one of Jordan's blue long sleeved t shirts and a pair of his black shorts and walked back into my bedroom.

I set up some blankets and pillows on my floor since the Lynch kids are crashing in my room and put the AC on to cool the room.

Someone opened and closed the door and I turned to see who it is, only to see Riker in the same shirt and pants as me. "So we're the couple who wears everything matching?" I asked him. "I think it's cute," he shrugged. I giggled and he came over and kissed my cheek.

Then, one by one, the Lynch kids flooded my bedroom. "So Ky, where are you gonna sleep because we kinda invaded your bedroom," Rocky laughed. "Well I was gonna sleep with uncle Reaz, but Riker being the big baby he is will come and ask me to cuddle him at 3 am," I said and everyone burst out laughing. "Hey! I can't help it if my girlfriend is super cuddly," he protested.

After a good laugh, we all settled into bed. Riker, Ross and I took the bed and the rest of the guys slept on the ground. I snuggled up to Riker and he wrapped his arms around me tightly and protectively.

"Thank you so much for today Riker. I had a lot of fun," I said looking up at him. "No problem. You're worth it," he said and pecked my lips. "I love you," I told him resting my head on his chest. "I love you too, princess," he said and kissed my forehead as his arms went around me tighter, if that was even possible. My eyelids became heavier and heavier and the last thing I remember was Riker's soothing voice whispering, "Goodnight baby."
