The Sixth Lynch

Chapter 9

Ross' POV

"So uh, Im going to go for a walk," Rocky said as I walked back inside. I just nodded as he walked out the door.

I had stayed outside after Ashley left. I knew I should tell Riker, but I cant right? I mean its not like anything else has happened between us. So its probably better off if I dont tell him. Speaking of Riker, he walked through the front door, breaking me from my thoughts. "Hey," I said kind of awkwardly.

"Hi," he said giving me a questioning look.

"So uh, Ashley, she seems nice." Great, way to mention Ashley, Ross. Now he'll probably figure out what happened.

"Yeah she's amazing," Riker said, a smile coming across his face. "She's anything I've ever dreamed of."

I can tell he really likes her, and he seems really happy with her, and I cant ruin that. I figured maybe I should just leave him daydreaming, so I headed to my room. I opened the door to my room and found Ryland, laying on his bed tossing a football in the air. Which lead me to another thought, Rachel.

I hadnt seen her since Ryland chased her out of the house, and I know he was lying about her staying at a friends house. What if she was in the accident with me? What if she's still at the hospital? What if she didnt make it? Maybe my family doesnt think I can take any bad news so they decided not to tell me she died? "So where's Rachel?" I asked trying not to sound scared.

Ryland looked over at me. "I told you, she's staying at a friends house." Then he laid back down and started tossing the football again.

"Come on Ry. I know thats not true," I said going over and sitting down on my bed. "Where is she?"

"Fine," he said sitting up again. "Remember when she ran out of the house?" I nodded telling him to continue on with the story, even though I really didnt remember. "Ok so she ran out of the house, and I havnt seen her since."

"Havnt seen her since?!" I yelled standing up.

"Yes. But Im going to find her. And mom and dad dont know yet so--

"They dont know yet?! You have to tell them." We were both standing up now.

"I told you Im going to find her, so Im not telling them. They dont need to be worrying about it. Plus Im sure she's fine. I mean come on its Rachel we're talking about."

"Whatever." I grabbed my beats and laid down on my bed, facing the wall.

Rockys POV

I walked into the house closing the door quietly behind me. It was four in the morning and I figured I should go home and get some sleep before we leave on tour tomorrow. My walk ended up being to Blair's apartment. I stayed for a little while and we watched a couple of movies, then she ended up falling asleep in my arms, and I kind of drifted off too. Then I woke up around three wondering if I should tell her that Im leaving on tour in a few hours, but I just decided to write her a note saying some family stuff came up. I didnt want her worrying about me, plus we're not even official. We're just two friends who watched a few movies together. Right?

"So where have you been?" I heard Rydel ask. She was standing in the hallway that led to our bedrooms.

"Uh I was just, uh, I went for a walk," I said giving a little nod.

"You really expect me to believe that Rocky Lynch woke up at four in the morning to go for a walk?" I was about to speak again but she beat me to it. "Come on," she said putting an arm around my shoulder. "Who's the girl?"

I smiled a little at the fact that my sister knows me way too well. "You know that nurse, from the front desk at the hospital? Well her names Blair."

"Ooh Rocky's in love," she said holding out the 'love'.

"Yeah well..."

"So is it like Riker and Ashley or?" Rydel asked as she sat down on the couch.

"No...We're just..." I didnt know what to tell her because I wasnt sure myself. "We're just friends, for right now. I mean I go on tour tomorrow and who knows what will happen there."

"Have you ever fell for any other girls in the crowd before?"

"Well no, not really..."

"Then what are the odds is going to happen this time?"

"It probably wont happen. But Im still not telling her about the whole band thing. Not yet anyways."

"Ok well Im going to go back to bed," she said standing up off the couch. "And you probably should too, we have a long day tomorrow," she walked to the edge of the hallway then turned back to me. "Oh and try not to worry about Blair because Im sure every things going to turn out just fine," I could tell she was smiling.

"Ok," I said smiling back. "Night Delly."

"Night Rocky."
