Mars 2 Pluto Meets A True But Taboo Love

Ch. 3 Housemates/Roomates- 2

Riley and I are sitting on her bed and I am just holding her. It feels good to finally hold her like this. I just wish I knew what to do. Because of our parents this dream is forbidden. But I wonder if Riley cares. I mean I would be whatever she wanted/needed me to be because that's what feels right. And because I love her so completely I always have. "You are thinking too loud. Please don't tell me you are regretting this." She says softly. "No. But I'm afraid that you will." I tell her looking at her. "Farkle the only thing I would regret is if we didn't try this at all. I love you and I want to be with you." she says and I look at her in amazement. She has always stuck by the rules and done what was considered right. Now she wants to enter a very taboo relationship with me. We are going to be very close. I fear her finding out my secret. But I fear losing her also. I can only think of trying this. To see how it goes. "You, me lets do this thing." I tell her with a smile. Then she smiles and kisses me again.

Wow. I really like her kisses. I kiss her back and just let myself be with her. Her happiness means everything to me. Always has. I just hope that this works without our parents getting pissed off or her finding out about my dad. But I fear with as close as we are going to be its only a matter of time.
The next morning
I wake up feeling more rested then I had in a long time. I feel a weight on my chest. Huh? I open my eyes and see loose curly hair. Riley...then yesterday and last night came to me. How we admitted our feelings to each other and decided to try and be together. As taboo as that is for a step brother and step sister to be together like that. It makes us happy. And it's not like our parents included us in their decision making progress. They just decided that what was best for them and made them happy was best for all of us. When it's not it wasn't good for Riley or me. Since we have been in love for about as long as we have known each other. It makes me wonder since when was the love of our parents worth more than ours. I feel Riley stir. She shifts a little and I hold back a gasp since she nearly touched me there. She looks up at me when she opens her eyes. She smiles. "Hi." "Hi." I tell her and she kisses me. I kiss her Back happy that now we are able to. I've wanted to kiss her like this for ages. If I am honest with myself I still wanted to kiss her when I was with Smackle. Smackle was nice but I couldn't think of her in the same way I always thought of Riley. I didnt just break up with her cause of the whole situation with my dad. I also broke up with her cause it wasn't fair to her. I only started to date her cause I thought she was the only one who liked me.

I honestly didn't have a clue that Riley was waiting for me to take her away from Lucas the way I told her I would.
Later
We are sitting down watching a movie. It's some horror movie a Japanese horror movie. One missed call I believe. A ghost is killing people through a phone call. The victims hear themselves die two days before they die. Right now they think the ghost that is killing people is a woman that was suspected of abusing her children. Suddenly I am looking up and seeing my father.
He stands over me glaring at me and angry. "You good for nothing little bitch!! What the hell are you trying to do?! Get me arrested?! You know if Im arrested. Your life will be gone! I am smart I can get out and I will and my first stop is that little girl that you have had feelings for since you both were in diapers! I will go after Riley and no one would ever see her again. You hear me boy!" He says. "Yes I am sorry! I am sorry please don't!" I cry. "Oh you aren't sorry! But you will be you good for nothing bitch!" He shouts and he starts to hit me and he throws  me to the floor. Then he starts to kick me...

Riley's POV
The movie is still playing but I'm no longer watching it. I'm on the floor with Farkle who is remembering some sort of attack. I'm trying to get him to see me. And hear me but he can't he Is stuck in whatever this is. A memory? "I'm sorry! I'm sorry i will be more careful!! Please don't touch her!" He cries out still locked away in a place where I am not. He screams and cries like he is getting beaten by invisible hands. This is so hard to watch. "Dad! Stop please!! I'm sorry!" He cries out before falling down flat on the ground put there by a memory of a man I thought I knew. His father hurts him? What the hell?! I start to try harder to get him out of whatever this is. "Mars! Mars please see me! I'm not going to hurt you! Please see me! Please hear me Mars!" I cry. Trying to gently touch him without scaring him in this state. He stills suddenly but I am still trying to get him to hear me and see me. "Riley?" He says looking at me confused seeing my tear ridden face. I just take him into my arms and hold him wanting so much to take his pain away for I now know his secret. A secret I didn't even know he had. "I'm sorry for upsetting you." He says sadly. "It's okay. It's okay. It's not your fault." I tell him just holding him. Wondering how long he has had to deal with this horrible nightmare where his father who is supposed to protect him hurts him instead.
Later
Right now Farkle is in the shower and I am thinking about everything that happened when he was trapped in a memory of his father beating him. It seems like he was protecting someone while being beaten. Me possibly? I hear the water in the bathroom we share get cut off. If Farkle was protecting me why? Did his dad threaten me? It seems like the more I figure out the more questions I have. Suddenly I hear his scream. I get up and run to the bathroom. "Farkle?" I call when I open the door. His towel is wrapped around his waist. He turns red and i feel myself turning red as well. "Sorry for scaring you. I slipped and i lost my contacts. And my next shipment doesn't come in for a few weeks." He says turning more red and squinting trying to see me. It makes me remember when he lost his glasses at my house. I had found them but only after he started wearing contacts. Oh that reminds me. "Get dressed I have something you can use." I tell him and return to my room. To get the specialized glasses his dad made him when he was little. It's supposed to self adjust when you press a button. Well let's see if that happens after all these years. They were a prototype that his father made and I remember he was pretty upset when Farkle lost them. I hope that the abuse didn't start back then. I find them and pick them up and return to the bathroom. Only this time I knock. "Just a minute."  he says. And I just wait there for another moment or two. "Come in." He says.

I open the door as he is putting his shirt on. I smile. Then I hand him his glasses. He looks at them stunned. He pushes the button and puts them on. "I thought I lost these." He says. "You did. I only found them after you started wearing contacts." I tell him honestly. "Did you prefer me in contacts?" He asks. "Nope I love you anyway you are." I tell him honestly. And jump into his arms and kiss him deeply as he catches me. After a moment he starts to kiss me back. And I soon find myself back to a wall still in his arms still straddling him and still kissing him deeply. And it's starting to feel so heated. Are we going too fast? Probably. But this was also a long time coming so I couldn't careless. I love him and he loves me and that's all that matters.
Later
We ended up moving the makeout session to my bedroom. Now we are both more comfortable. I have a feeling us being housemates are going to be great. Now I'm going to see if I can make him into my roommate. Cause it's getting late and I know he is going to want to go to bed soon.  "Goodnight Riley." He says bringing truth to my thoughts. He gets up and I grab his arm. "Stay." I say a bit in desperation. "Riley..I .." "Please Mars stay with me. I sleep better with you here." I tell him. And he sighs. "Okay. And I sleep better with you too." He says getting back into bed with me. I smile. "Yay!" "Yay!" He says copying me in a way that makes me laugh. "That giggle is still my favorite sound in the world. And I've really missed Rileytown." He tells me handing me his glasses. I put them on my nightstand. "And Rileytown has missed you. It hasn't been as fun with you gone." I tell him honestly.

It's true Rileytown suffers when he is gone. It's a state of being I know but that place doesn't really exist without him in it. "Then I guess I should stay around." He says sounding like he has a smile smirk. "You think?" I say as he gets comfortable on his back. And then I lay down with my head on how chest and my arm around his waist. "Goodnight Pluto. I love you." He says. I give him a kiss. "I love you too Mars." I tell him then I lay my head back down on his chest. I close my eyes listening to his heartbeat.
Two days later
We decided to go to the park today. The one we used to go to when we were kids. The one that is close by the elementary school we had attended. I pack us a lunch and some snacks. "Are you ready Riley?" Farkle asks coming into the kitchen with the keys to his motorcycle. I pack the last then and close the backpack. "Yes." I say. And he takes me by the hand and takes me to his motorcycle. He hands me a helmet which I put on. He puts on his and gets on his motorcycle. I get on behind him. I put my arms around his waist and he takes off. We pass our elementary school and go to the park. He parks his bike. I get off and he does as well.

I hand him his spare helmet. He puts it in his motorcycle saddlebags. He takes off his motorcycle and does the same. He sets the alarm on it then he takes me by the hand. He leads me to the part of the park that was our favorite when we were little. Not many are here today. And most are in the newer part of the park. But we don't mind we are enjoying talking about the memories we have of this park. Suddenly a ball knocks Farkle's glasses off. I go to help him find them. But then something knocks Farkle out when my back is turned. Then a note lands next to me.  I pick it up and read it.
If you want to know

I look around but see no one. I go to Farkle. "I will come back to you." I whisper and I kiss his forehead. Then I start walking to the elementary school. I go into the gate since it's kept open. I walk passed the portables till I get to the building that holds the Kindergarten class. I wonder how Farkle's dad knows where we kissed for the second time. Maybe he overheard Maya talk about it since she found out about it and at the time wouldn't stop talking about it. I go to the tree that is behind the Kindergarten. And I stand there and wait.
20 minutes Later
Im starting to feel stupid. I start to walk away. Then someone grabs me. But before I can scream I get stuck by something like a needle and it all goes dark..

A/N I know I left it on a cliffy but there is a method to my madness. Sorry it took me so long to update this one. I was focusing on one of my other Riarkle fics "she calls me Daddy now too sir. That I neglected this story a bit I'm sorry. I hope you guys forgive me.
