Playlists {A Rydellington Story}

・Chapter 8・

・Rydelly・

I put a hand over my mouth in shock. Did I just say that out? Oh my god, I did.

Ellington's nose rubs against mine and I could feel his breath hit my skin like rain falling on a sidewalk, like the rain is playing a song as it lands on the ground making its own beautiful melody. That's his breath intake, the rhythm of it is a beating drum that makes you feel the pound in your chest.

"Rydel.." His voice drifts as we stare into each other's eyes.

His lips are centimeters away from mine. My heart starts pounding in my chest and he leans in more bringing his lips closer to-

Ring. Ring.

My phone starts buzzing in my pocket. I bump heads with Ellington as I look down. "Sorry," I apologize and get out my phone.

Best brother ever reads in the I.D. I let my brothers type their names in my phone and this was Ross's. I answer it. "What's up?" I ask and Ross starts talking way too fast for me to catch up. "What?" I question him in a middle of a sentence.

"Riker got in an accident." Ross states and I gasp, making Ellington look at me. "I'm with mom and we are on our way to get you, where are you?" I stand up as he talks and go to the door.

"I'm at the vinyl-"

"Coming!" Ross says then hangs up. I hope Riker is okay.

I didn't realize it but Ellington was right beside me. "Is everything okay?" He asks making me jump. I shake my head avoiding eye contact with him. We almost kissed. I'm a complete idiot.

"I'm sorry about earlier, I don't know what got into me, I mean I asked you to-" Ellington interrupts me by placing his lips on me sending sparks up my body. I wrap my arms around his neck as he deepens our kiss.

His lips tasted like gummy bears.

I pull back out of breath as he is also. "I asked you to do that." I blush smiling. Ellington kissed me.

Ellington Lee Ratliff kissed me.

"You're a good kisser." He compliments me and I let a giggle slip out of my mouth.

I have to go.

I turn the door knob and stare at my hand biting my lip. It's on the door knob. I'm going to leave Ellington. I turn around and look at him and he already pushes me against the door and kisses me roughly, running his hands up my waist.

INTERNALLY SCREAMING.

I push Ellington gently away from me. "I'll see you when I see you?" I ask and he nods. I open the door and start for the stairs when I heard Ellington say something.

"We are just friends."

My heart plummeted in my chest.

Ross and I walk through the hospital to Riker's room. Apparently Rocky and Ryland already arrived before we had. Ross turns a sharp corner and I follow behind him as we arrive.

I stopped breathing for a second when I saw Riker.

He lays unconscious in his bed. His left hand was bandaged along his arm. The amazing blonde hair feature he had now has red in it and his left eye was swollen and purple. A tear runs door my cheek as I walk up to Riker's bed and I put my hand on his chest.

"Hey big bro, I don't know if you can hear me but-"

"The last time we were at the hospital was when you killed Maegan." Rocky interrupts me. I was too zoned in on Riker to see Rocky sitting there. Ross had left the room along with Ry to find our parents.

"I know that and I'm-"

"You don't get to say sorry for that, Rydel. It was your choice to take that Impala," he ignores what I'm saying. He has a angered look in his eye. "And drive it over the speed limit drunk and high." Rocky stands up and starts running his hand through his hair.

"Rocky, let's just focus on Riker." I try to calm him but he slams his hand on a table and looks at me.

"Can't you see? I can't focus on Riker! I can't just ignore the night I thought my sister was going to die! I can't accept the fact that the girl I loved more than anything, got killed by my own sister!" He yells at me. I look down and tears come running down my cheeks.

I'll never forgive myself for this. I knew it that night when Maegan and I left that stupid party, I should've not been drive. I didn't care though. I kept telling myself that it'd be okay. Nothing would go wrong.

"Rydel, drive!" Maegan laughed telling me turning the volume up on the radio to Highway Don't Care by Tim McGraw. I smiled and sped up laughing my head off about how fast we were going in the outskirts of town.

I felt the adrenaline pumping through my veins and I just kept pressing harder on the gas pedal going faster every minute. The roads were empty and it was around two in the morning. This was normal for us though, being out all night partying. Waking up the next morning not remembering anything.

"Let's take this corner," I take a sharp turn without even looking if someone was coming.

That's when a red Chevy pickup was driving the opposite direction of us, tried slamming on the brakes but failed miserably.

The truck slams on the passenger door. Neither Maegan nor I were wearing our seat belts. Maegan comes flying into my seat and I lose control of the wheel.

The Impala takes a turn for the worse. It flips in a complete three sixty degree and the last thing I saw was Maegan flying out the windshield.

~

"I-I regret that. I remember that every day. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about that." I start crying and Rocky's hand whacks against my cheek.

"You don't get to cry over that," Rocky mumbles and walks to the door. I watch him as he walks and he looks at me.

"You should've died instead."
