All of the Lights

Chapter Eight

Previously...

"So... I can go out on a date with someone while you're gone?" I asked sarcastically. I wanted to push his buttons and see how he would react.

"Hell no!" He exclaimed, giving me a funny look.

"Ok. But that means that you can't take any girls out while you're gone, either." I smirked.

"Deal. Unless it's business related." He put his hand out to shake. I laughed and shook it, accepting his offer.

"I never really showed you around the house, did I?" Sam pulled me off of the couch and wrapped his fingers around my hand.

"Nope." I said, popping the p, to mimic him. He laughed and led me through the house, showing me around his place.

Chapter Eight

Sam pulled into my driveway at exactly eleven o'clock. He walked over to open the door for me, smiling as our eyes met.

"Do I get to walk you in?" He put his hand out for me to grab. I laced my fingers around his and nodded my head.

Sam walked me to the front door, ringing the doorbell. He gave me a hug before Rob opened the door.

"Hey kids." Rob greeted, giving Sam an annoyed glare.

"Sorry about that, Rob. I fell asleep." Sam tried to defend.

"What were you two doing?" Rob cocked an eyebrow.

"We were watching a movie. Couldn't even tell you which one, because I passed out once it started." Sam joked. I laughed and gave Rob a 'don't-screw-this-up' look.

Rob put his hand on my shoulder and led me inside.

"Thanks for bringing her home." Rob said in a monotone voice.

"Uh, no problem. Sorry again, man. I didn't mean to disrespect you or anything." Sam seemed nervous. Heck, I was nervous.

"No, no! I understand, buddy. Go get some rest! Your tour starts soon." Rob smiled, lightly hitting Sam on the chest. Sam laughed and looked over at me.

"I'll see you tomorrow." He smiled. I nodded my head. We both exchanged goodbyes, and Sam headed out the door. Once the front door was shut, Rob turned to face me.

"Tomorrow?" He cocked an eyebrow.

"Yeah. He's leaving tomorrow. I'm going to head over and hang out before he goes." I shrugged, acting like it was no big deal.

"Riley!" Rob groaned. He wasn't happy about this.

"You're so annoying!" I yelled at him, putting my hands in the air.

He needs to hear it sooner or later.

"Riles, I'm not trying to be annoying. It's just... How can you not see what he's trying to do? All he wants is to get in your pants!" Rob yelled back.

Great. Now we're going to start screaming about sex.

"Rob, you need to calm down and mind your own business. First of all, he's not trying to use me. He didn't even try to do anything like that when I was over. Second of all, if I want to have sex with him it's none of your business."

"Your parents will be pissed if they find out."

"But I don't give a damn about my parents. Where are they now?" I paused, looking at Rob's eyes glance at the floor. "Exactly. They don't care about me, and I don't care about them."
