Senior Year-Rucas

Rules.

Chapter 32

Lucas sat beside Missy in the convertible and would occasionally wave. It was kind of awkward having stop and go traffic, so he would randomly sit in front of some strangers for several minutes. He didn't mind too much, the running back enjoyed watching Riley interact with people. She had a sassy side, that's something no one could deny but he knew a side of her no one else did, Riley was so genuinely sweet and caring. She cared for people and her demeanor made it more obvious than she cared to admit.

"Lucas, i'm so glad we are doing this together." Missy placed her hand on his lap and he removed it.

"New rule, don't touch me unless absolutely necessary."

She glared. "Like when we dance together on Saturday? Or when we walk down the 50 yard line together tomorrow night?"

"Exactly." He scoffed. "I'm curious, are you doing all of this just to get under Riley's skin?"

"No, that's just a fun bonus. I have my sights set on something much bigger." Their car turned right and Lucas continued to wave and smile, pretending to be happy.

"I sure hope you aren't talking about me." He noticed the Whataburger and looked for his family, Lucas saw Riley flip and start waving.

"Of course I am."

"You're really full of yourself. You ruin my relationship with Riley and you think we're going to get together."

"You kissed me back. You don't know it yet, because you are infatuated with her. But, you want me." She rubbed his leg from his knee to his upper thigh.

"Negative ghost rider. Rule Missy! Get your hand off of me." She did as instructed sensing his tone.

"GO ELKS!" Riley was keeping a particular eye out for Brinley, and quickly found her when she heard her name. "Hey Brinley!" The brunette ran over to hug her quickly. "I've missed you so much!" Lucas watched the exchange and smiled, one of the many reasons he loved her. She turned around and saw the float. "Can I take her on the float? Lucas is right behind us."

"Of course, go!" The cheerleader smiled at Taylor and snatched Brinley up, taking off towards her float. Brinley's blonde curls blew in the wind and her giggle filled Riley's ears.

"Sit right here pretty girl." The brunette set her next to Darby and passed her a piece of candy. "Make sure you wave okay. Everyone's here to see you." B smiled and started waving. Lucas' heart fluttered, he loved seeing both of his girls happy. He let out a loud whistle, Riley turned around and lagged behind to meet up with him.

"Thank you for doing that." Riley looked at his sister and smiled.

"Anytime. I've missed her." Missy scoffed. "Do you have a problem?"

"Shouldn't you be with the cheerleaders?"

"Shouldn't you get a personality?" The brunette glanced back at Lucas who was laughing. "I'll see you later, if I don't kidnap your sister."

Riley sauntered to her locker, she was wearing her senior jersey and eye black underneath her eyes. No Lucas yet, but he always showed up. The brunette enjoyed this morning, Missy was doing a homecoming thing so she missed practice, and Charlie didn't stalk her, so far everything was smooth sailing. The cheerleader entered her combination and opened her locker to find a beautiful mum. Her mouth opened and her hand covered her lips. She took the mum out of her locker to get a better look. It was gorgeous, it had a white fluffy heart with a teddy bear attached at the top and long strands of white and silver ribbon hanging from beneath it, with the name Riley on one ribbon and Lucas on another. There were bells and different ribbons had different patterns and designs. "You can come out now!" Lucas turned the corner and took a picture.
