Picture This (An R5/Riker Lynch fanfic)

Chapter 27

Riker's POV

Today was the day. The day I swore to myself I had gather up the guts to ask Mike out. Heck, I even asked people for advice and their opinions, AND I even asked Roshon for permission.

**************

I walked towards the blindingly pink door a few feet from my own room and rapped on the door a few times.

"Come in!" I gulped and walked in and almost freaking had a heart attack. Rydel turned around and what I saw was so bizarre even bizarre wasn't even a good enough word to describe the more than bizarre but not just bizarre situation I was in... I am totally fine I swear.

Rydel had just one eye loaded with eyeliner and mascara and whatever they call it. The other eye perfectly unharmed from the ink and chemicals. But right now, her face look unbalanced and MORE THAN BIZARRE.

Okay maybe I'm a little light headed from all the hyperventilating in my room.

"Sup Riker?" she asked innocently, looking at me from across the room where she sat at her makeup table.

"Uh... I wanna ask you something." I looked down, trying to prevent the nervous and hysterical laughter from bubbling out from inside me.

"Okay, shoot." she replied, putting everything down and looking at me expectantly.

"I was doing some thinking for a while now ever since the Enchanted night." I trailed off as a light tinge of blush appeared across her cheeks, obviously her schemes hadn't gone unnoticed... DUH.

"And I have been thinking for a while now and I've come to a conclusion." Judging by the look on Rydel's face, she looked quite worried. I brushed it off and continued.

"I'm gonna ask Mike out." I breathe out, finally relieving the tension in my shoulders.

Before I knew it, my hearing was deafened momentarily by the high pitched squealing from my sister.

"FINALLY I THOUGHT THAT WAS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN!" Rydel exclaimed, engulfing me in a tight hug and squeezing all the air out of my lungs.

"What happened?" My siblings appeared at the outside of Rydel's room, obviously alarmed by the screaming.

"Can I tell them?" Rydel asked, pulling apart from me.

"Y– I mean yeah sure. Why not?" I say, nodding stiffly and shrugging my shoulders.

"Riker's FINALLY gonna ask Mikayla out!" Rydel more or less screamed.

Silence for a good few seconds before Ross piped up.

"Rocky, you owe me ten bucks."

"What?!"

"Y'all made a bet?" I squeaked in disbelief.

"Yeah bro. You were taking SO DAMN LONG we just had to make a bet." Rocky shrugged like it was normal to make bets on things like this, taking his wallet out and throwing $10 bucks at Ross.

"And I won cuz I said that you'd ask her out this month. Rocky lost cuz he said that it'll take you ages cuz Mikayla would've most likely been asked by someone else!" Ross chirped, stowing the $10 down his pocket.

I rolled my eyes. How I was even related to these monkeys struck me wth wonder too... Maybe they're adopted... HAH no I've seen their birth certificates.

I walked up the steps of Roshon's porch and knocked on the door nervously.
