Riverdale High

Chapter 6

    The whole gang was here, Poppy and Bucky, Chris and I, Alice and Lucas, Emily and Tom and Minty and Tony. We were all drinking beer and jamming to music outside on the front lawn. We had gotten back from the cinema and had an amazing time. We watched the minions movie - I know it's a kids movie but don't judge.

    Suddenly, the song finished and it changed to a slow song. It was thinking out loud by Ed Sheeran (start playing the song now).

    Chris and I came closer, he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulled me tight to him and whispered in my ear I love you I whispered back I love you too. I rested my head on his chest and we swayed to the music, we didn't say anything we just sang along to the lyrics and held each other tight.

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me—I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So, honey, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way (mmm...)
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause, honey, your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

That, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are (oh, oh)

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, lo-ud

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
But maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

    The song came to a close and I looked into Chris's eyes and we kissed, it was a very long kiss. I felt my heart flutter and butterflies were zooming around at 100 miles per hour in my stomach. This was the way life was meant to be.

    We sat down on the grass, his legs around my waist our wrists
intertwined, his chin was resting on my shoulder as we watched the stars in the night sky.

    "Baby?" Chris asked

    "Mmm-hmm." I mumbled

    "I love you to the moon and back." He said. I closed my eyes he kissed my cheek.

Now in Emily's POV

    "Tom?" I asked, I was so nervous as soon as the slow song came on. I didn't know if we were usually going to sit and chat on the side until the song finished, but instead with no warning whatsoever he pulled me close to his chest and whispered Calm down it's not a race. My eyes twinkled, I looked at him and he looked back. Then I suddenly cringed.

    I didn't know how to slow dance. It was almost as is he was reading my mind. He lifted me up so my feet were on top of his and started dancing. Although, I was technically dancing it was still the most magical moment of my life.

     The music stopped and he looked at me. His eyes were sparkling, the ice blue that was normally infatuating were a sweet ocean blue, I could almost picture the calm ocean waves. He pulled me close to his chest and I inhaled his musky scent.

    We sat down and he laid down, I did the same and placed my head on his chest. We stared at the stars in the night sky and his he ran his fingers through my hair.

Morgan's POV

    This was the life, all of the gang together watching the stars. No care in the world of who was watching us, although I did care that no one was going to clean up the beer bottles on the lawn and I was going to be the one to clean everything up. As usual.

    I looks over to see Bucky and Poppy chatting away, they were still wide awake. How? I was starting to doze off, they were so cute together.

    He tucked a strand of her unruly ginger locks behind her ear. I watched them as they shared a tender moment. It made me want to cry, it was so sweet. The way he cared about her so much and the way she cared about him. I turned to face Chris and he beamed at me. He pulled me in for a kiss, his hands cupping my cheeks, that were a little cold because of the weather outside. After, Chris and I kissed for the second or third time that night he pulled me close to his chest and we stayed like that just in a hug. I couldn't have asked for a better moment.

    Poppy and I started to collect the beer bottles and chucked them in the trash can. Once we had finished we all headed to my bedroom, I laid out a couple of blankets and mattresses and everyone camped out. Poppy and Bucky got the bed and were still talking by the time I fell asleep. What were they even talking about?

    I spaced out and then fell asleep, my head on Chris's chest. His hand stroking my head.

I will include Alice's, Minty and maybe a little extra chapter of Poppy and Bucky up late chatting. I'll only add in a chapter of the two of them talking if I get some comments. Maybe about 3-4 comments I might add in a special bonus chapter.
Just comment

BONUS CHAPTER: (the name of the character or couple you want the bonus chapter to be of)
