"Wake up !" Riker's voice echoes around in my head . He sounds panicked . I'm to tired for this .

"Bro, what is it ?" Ross mumbles .

"Troy is outside looking up at the window ." Riker replies . He sounds scared . "Like staring at the window . He knows we're here ." He adds.

I manage to open my eyes, but I can tell they're filled with fright . Ross looks panicked . No one else is awake . I stumble to my feet and wake everyone up .

"What's going on ?" Rydel sighs .

"Troy is outside ." I whisper. I don't want that creep to possibly hear us even though that not likely to happen .

Soon everyone is up but we don't dare turn on a light .

Sierra, Rydel and I huddle close together while the boys guard the window .

"Is he still out there ?" Sierra asks .

"Yeah ." Rocky informs .

"I'm scared ." Rydel comments .

"Me too ." Sierra and I agree .

"We won't let him get to you ." Ryland says . All of the boys are protective to all of us . They treat Sierra and I like Rydel, like their sisters. None of these boys would ever hurt us .

The boys pull us into a group hug . After everyone pulls back, the boys go back to the window and take a look outside.

"He's gone !" Ross shrieks .

"We only hugged for 3 seconds how can he leave so quickly .?" Ratliff argues .

Just then we hear the front door creak open.

"Y'all heard that to right ?" Rydel chokes out.

I nod .

"Girls, get in the closet ." Riker order .

"But .." Sierra protests .

"Now !" They boys order.

Sierra, Rydel and I pile into the closet and shut the door quietly . I fumble around the empty area beside me and grab a broken clothes hanger . I twist it and turn it into a surprisingly secure weapon . Yeah, I went through a rebel stage a one point and learned to do stuff like this . I clutch the weapon and stay huddled together with the girls, waiting for the boys return .

-------------------------------------------------------

\ROSS P.O.V/

"If this guy is down here, I'm gonna kill him ." Riker whispers as we all find some sort of weapon from room .

I end up with a baseball bat, Riker has a golf club, Rocky has a butter knife from when Sierra ate something in here, Ryland has scissors and Ratliff has a piece of a broken stool . Pretty good weapons to be in one room .

We all make our say out of the room, locking the bedroom door on our way . We hear shuffling around downstairs. Riker leads, then myself, Rocky, Ratliff, and lastly Ryland . Suddenly a light switches on . Riker takes a swing and the golf club hits the wall .

"Why the hell are y'all in my house swinging a golf club at my head !?" Ally's furious voice squeals .

"We thought you were someone else ." Ryland says simply .

"Okay . Again , why are you here ? And who is suppose to be here . I thought Sierra was over there ." She asks .

"They girls are here too . We stayed here because some guy was following us . He was watching us for a bit then he just disappeared then we heard you . " I explain.

"So y'all have a stalker !?" She scoffs .

"More like the girls , he has a thing for them." Rocky spits out with disgust .

"Okay . Get the girls and I'll figure something out ." She sighs .

We all walk back up stairs . "Baby girl, it's us you can open the door now ." I say calmly . The door doesn't open though .

---------------------------------------------------

\KATIE P.O.V/

"Baby girl, it's us you can open the door now ." Ross' voice appears .

I move to get up but Sierra stops me, I give here a confused look .

"What if it isn't him ." She whispers .

"It's his voice ." I assure .

"Just make sure ." Rydel pleas .

"Katie, please open up . It's us ." Ross begs from the door .

"If it's really y'all, then Rocky, Ratliff and Ross tell us something that only you would know about us ." I choke . I look at the girls for approval and they nod .

------------------------------------------

\ROSS P.O.V/

"If it's really y'all, then Rocky, Ratliff and Ross tell us something that only you would know about us ." Katie's panicked voice chokes . I can tell she's scared . A flood of relief fills through me, for a second I thought Troy could've gotten in there and took them for a second .

"What are we suppose to say ?" Ratliff asks .

"Something only y'all know about each other . A memory, a fact, something personal . " Riker explains .

I rack my brain for something about Katie and I . I notice the Rocky and Ell are doing the same .

"Ratliff first, then Rocky, then Ross ." Katie orders .

"Give us a second ." Ryland stammers .

"Go Ell . " I order .

-----------------------------------------

\KATIE P.O.V/

"Make Rat go first ." Rydel mouths .

"Ratliff first, then Rocky, then Ross ." I order .

"Give us a second ." Someone says.

We've all emerged from the closet but the door is still locked .

"Go Ell ." Ross' muffled voice says .

"Rydel, it's Ratliff . We got together on November 12 when you asked Riker if you were ugly . I took you into that room and we confused our feelings for each other . "

Rydel sighs but smiles . "It's him . " She mouths .

"Sierra, it's Rocky, We got together September 9 . When you were younger you hated your dimples but I always tell you that they're adorable .

Sierra silently laughs . "And you always laugh when I say adorable ." He adds .

Sierra nods .

"Katie, it's Ross, We got together May 4. When you were younger you found this place with Jimmy in your woods . It was a small pond with coy fish swimming around in it, surrounding with trees and flowers . You two would sit there for hours just telling each other everything until your mom would call . One day you were upset and Jimmy took you there . You told Jimmy everything . That day y'all stayed at the pond and watched the sunset . You called that your best memory from home until you moved here . " He says .

A single happy tear flows down my cheek and I nod signaling it was him . Sierra unlocks the door and we rush to our boyfriends . Ross pulls me into a kiss . A long kiss . The passionate kiss lasted for 2 minutes until someone cleared their throat .

"Ally wants to talk to us remember ." Ryland stutters .

"Yeah . It was just Ally ." Ross explains .

"That would've been good to know ." I giggle . He smiles and leads me downstairs.
