Reaching Riker (Riker Lynch Story)

Chapter 9

Leigh's POV

Last nights concert wore me out.

My ears are falling off almost due to all the screaming they endured.

I have to admit though R5 are pretty good singers.

The pieces of paper with Rydels number was currently clutched in my hand. I've been thinking of texting her and asking to hang out but then again we only met yesterday.

I just feel like when she was near me yesterday she gave off a happy and comforting vibe to me.

"Make a decision!" I mentally scream at myself

Well Riley's did tell me I need more friends but I don't think she means becoming the friend of one of her favorite band members.

But I do need another friend other than Oliver. Oliver is a great friend and all but I want one who I can talk to about girly stuff.

"Just text her!" I screamed at myself

Before I can stop my fingers, they are sending a hey it's Leigh text to Rydel. My hands seemed to be working on their own. I cursed as the message was sent. Damn you hands.

"What's up freakshow" Oliver rubbed my head messing my hair up

"Nothing" I sighed

Oliver snatched my phone from my hands before I could stop him.

"Did you meet a boy?" Oliver's normal playful voice was one filled with..anger?

I tried to grab my phone but he hid it behind his back.

"Give me my phone back!" I yelled attempted to get it again

He stuffed it down his pants making me shutter.

"Get it out now!" I yelled harshly

He rolled his eyes and stepped back from me.

"Who are you texting?"

"Why does it matter to you!?" I snapped

"Because I want to know!"

"It's not your business so give me my phone!" I stomped my foot

"I'm pretty sure it's my business to know who the girl I am in love with is texting!"

My heart dropped as I realized what he said. Oliver liking me!?

Oliver came to his senses on what he said and hastily took my phone out and dropped it to the floor. With pink cheeks he scurried upstairs.

He can't like me! He can't!

I didn't even grab my phone. It wasn't because it was down Oliver's pants.

It was because I was still in shock.

I finally came back to this world and picked my phone up rubbing it on my shirt. When Oliver dropped it I must of got a reply from Rydel.

Her text said hey with a smiley face. Just her message was comforting.

Am I brave enough to ask her to hang out though?

She might be tired from last night and she might be busy.

Why am I such a Debbie downer.

I could also hang out with Rydel maybe another time in the and try to talk to Oliver......

Nah Rydel it is.

Once the text was sent I was happy with myself. I did not chicken out like I normally would.
