Say You'll Stay (A Ross Lynch fanfic)

Chapter 4- The Concert

I awoke the next day wish a smile on my face, and a text from Ross.

Ross: Good morning. Today’s the day!! Wear pink, Rydel won the bet.

Me: Haha oh really? She guessed the number of jelly beans in the jar? How many were there?

Ross: 1,215. I totally would have guessed the exact number if they let me look at the jar longer. Anyway, wanna ride to the concert together?

Me: Of course J But I want to go for a swim first. Care to join me?

Ross I’ll be right down. ;)

I set my phone down and got changed into a swim suit and went outside. No one was awake in my house so I figured it would be good to get in a swim before everyone got in and started slashing around. Ross came outside in hot pink swim shorts

“So, is pink the theme of the day?” I asked, hugging him.

“Yes, how did you know?” He kissed me, instantly giving me butterflies, then went to go wet his hair. While he did that, I went into the pool and started floating on my back. I closed my eyes and felt Ross wrap his arms around me and kiss the top of my head. I opened my eyes, stood up, and turned toward him.

“Are you excited to perform tonight?”

“Of course, but I’m even more excited to…” And with that he picked me up and kissed me.

Things began to heat up, he deepened the kiss and pushed me against the side of the pool. I felt his hand reach around me and pull on my bikini strings and he bit my lip, but we were interrupted by Ratliff’s car pulling in the driveway. We quickly separated, knowing we shouldn’t be making anything public quite yet, since we didn’t know what to call us. Instead, we swam around, slashing each other and trying to push each other under water. You know, best friend things.

“Hey, guys,” Ratliff walked over to us, “I’m not interrupting anything, am I?”

“Of course not!” We said at the same time.

Ratliff looked at us suspiciously, so Ross quickly added, “would you care to join us?”

“Of course I would!” He ran inside to go change, as if he knew we were going to invite him, and I turned to Ross.

“Wow, that was close. We need to be more careful! We can’t risk outing ourselves to our families until we’re completely sure of what this is.”

“I know, but hey. It’s kind of fun sneaking around.” He said, pulling me in for a kiss before Ratliff walked out.

“Sorry, I thought I forgot my bathing suit! Everyone is waking up and getting ready to come swimming” He jumped in the pool and started swimming around. And before we knew it, both my family and the Lynches were gathered at the pool. “Good thing we had some time to ourselves.” Ross whispered in my ear.

When it was time to get ready, I went to Rydel’s room with Zoe. We wore all different shades of pink and wore pink tutus she made herself. I was curling my hair when Rydel took the curling iron and started going my hair while Zoe sat by me and asked, “So, where did you go with Ross yesterday?”

“Yeah, it took you a while to come back!”

“Well…I don’t really know how to explain it…” I was debating whether or not to tell them.

“Sweetie,” Rydel said, “you know you can tell Zoe and I anything, right?”

So I told them. I told them every little detail about last night and included all of my doubts and worries.
