Never Stopped

Laura's POV

Me And Ross Were Listening To Riker And Vanessa Argue When he Said He Loved Talia . The Second He Said That I turned To Ross Who had A Confused expression On His Face . Their Argument Went Silent And I Heard Vanessa Walking Upstairs Slowly .

"Ross Maybe You Guys Should Go.." I Said Considering That There Was Probably A Boat load Of Tension Now , Not Like There Wasn't Any before . "Laur .. Put Your Number In My Phone First ." He Said . I smiled And Took His Phone out His Hand To Put My Number In His Phone And I saw His Screensaver . A Picture Of Us .. From his Birthday last year In December . "Aww .. You Didn't Forget Me Huh?" I asked With a Smirk .

His Cheeks Went Reddish And He Snatched His Phone Back . "What does Your Little Girlfriend Think of That Lockscreen?" I asked With A Laugh. He Chuckled And Shook his head . "She Knows My Phone Is Off Limits." He Answered . I raised My Eyebrow . "Wow .. Your Really In control Aren't You?" I asked Shocked .

He Smacked His Lips While leaning Back In a Guy Like Position . "Psh , You Know." He Said Cockily . Never Realized I missed Him this Much . I Laughed and Grabbed A Pillow Flinging It At Him But He Dodged It .

"Better Luck next time ." He Teased . "Just Unlock the Phone Blondie ." I joked As He Entered His Passcode . "1995 . So predictable." I Mumbled Snatching His Phone . I Went To contacts And Created A New One . I Typed My Number And Saved It Under ' Miss Marano ' . He Took It Back once I Finished . He Mumbled Something Smirking .

"What Was That?" I asked Raising My Eyebro . "Nothing ." He Lied . I Smiled Rolling My Eyes Until Riker Walked In . "Um .. Ross We should Probably Go." He Said . "Yeah ." Ross Replied Standing Up . "Now Dont Be Surprised If You receive 100+ Messages From a Random Number-" "Cause It'll be Rossy boy ." I Finished His sentence . He Rose His eyebrows And chuckled .

"Not exactly The words I had In Mind But It's Really Workin For Ya ." He Winked . I Smacked My Lips . "Ross .." I whined . He Sighed . "I Know , I Know." He Said Walking Out . Saying I Missed Ross Is An understatement .. I've Been In love With him I just Tried To block the Feelings Out When I figured That he Didn't Care Anymore .

When I heard The Door Close I got Up To Check on Vanessa . I Knocked on her Door To No Answer . I Sighed And Opened Her Door To See Her Holding a Picture With tears Streaming Down Her Cheeks . She's Crying? That says Something Because Vanessa Tries Staying Emotionless As Possible when she's Hurt .

"Hey Nessa .." I Said As I sat On Her Bed . "Hey ." She Responded Faintly . "What's Bothering You about What he said Ness?" I asked Jumping Right To The Point . "Everything .. I built Up this Shield To protect Me Because I Dont Want To Be Hurt And It crumbled When he said He Loved Her, I Neve Realized How Much of An affect He Even had On Me . And when I Sat in Here Thinking And Finally Accepted The Fact That I Was Crushed Because He Loves Her .. I realized That I Never Stopped Loving Him." She confessed .

I was Completely Shocked . I've Never Heard Her Confess Something Like This , And To top it Off She Constantly Said She Wanted nothing To do With him or Any of The Lynch's Cause They forgot Us .. I Know I said It Too But I Now Realize Neither Of Us Meant It .

I Dont Know How I Was This Blind But It Makes Sense Now . We Said Everything We Said And Acted The way We Did Because .. It Hurt To care so Much The Ones That Made You Feel like You Could Be Easily Replaced Or Forgotten . Not Even just Ross And Riker .. We Felt Like Ghost To all of Them including Ratliff , We .. We Never Stopped Caring .

So dramatic And Sentimental .. I'm probably Going To update More Chapters Because The Ideas Are Flowing . But Vanessa Finally Opened Up! Do you Think Riker Went Overboard Shouting Angrily And Making It Seem Like Vanessa Left Him willingly And Carelessly Or Do you Understand His Frustrastion?
