My Shattered Heart

Chapter 5

Vanessa's POV

All we were doing was waiting for our flight to arrive. All of the sudden, an FBI agent approaches us and leads us into a dark room. Where was he anyway? He'd better explain what was going on. At this point, there was no sign of him. I echoed for him, but he didn't come. All I could see now were red flashing lights that were blinding me.

Wow.

Great.

What is this place anyway? I stopped thinking, when I heard a loud scream come from downstairs. I could see a brunette with amber highlights look up at me. I looked back at her, knowing she was afraid of what might happen next. Of course I comforted her, like all big sisters do, reassuring her, the best I could, that we would escape this mess. Out of the ordinary, spotlights came on. They were the type of white shining spotlights you would see at a concert. Peering through the lights, I could see a figure that looked like a blonde-haired boy. He was no older than 21 and he had to be no shorter than 6 feet. He smiled at me, making my heart melt. He was 100% hotness. Even though, we were in a weird room, I knew, right one the spot, It was love at first sight.

End of POV

"Hey." The blonde-haired boy blurted with a smile that would satisfy any girl. "I'm Riker."

Laura just stared at him with a surprising face. The words that she wanted to come out just didn't manage to come out. "W-w-what are you doing here?" Laura managed to say, trying to stretch her fake smile. Unfortunately, it looked too fake.

"I'm here to save you guys. I was about to go drive home from doing a show here, but when I saw that man push you guys into this undescribable place, I knew I had to save the day. I didn't even know they had rooms like this at airports. Want me to give you a ride since you missed your flight?" Riker blurted, winking at Laura and Vanessa, but mostly winking at Vanessa.

"That's so sweet Riker, I love you're band R5!" Laura yelled, trying to make it seem real, but not real enough.

"But, you hate R5. You're always calling them slu-" Before Vanessa could finish her sentence, Laura quickly jumped in, "Shut up." Laura says, while gritting her teeth.

"So, a ride home it is?" Riker asks, looking like he was cool.

"Yes, a ride to Los Angeles it is." Vanessa smiles, making Laura feel pathetic inside.

Vanessa and Laura quickly hop into the car feeling awkward. Knowing the fact, there were people out to kill her, Laura wished that where she was going, would be far, far away from here.

On the car ride, Laura unlocked her iPhone. She opened twitter and took a pic with Vanessa and Riker. "Heading to LA with @vanessamarano and @rikerr5!" It read. Unfortunately, no retweets.

Laura wasn't surprised at all.

When they stopped to eat at a diner in Montana, Riker opened up Instagram and Twitter and took a pic. "Hangin' out in Montana with these two awesome girls! @vanessamarano @lauramarano!" It read. Vanessa and Laura's feed started blowing up. Laura now had 30k on Twitter and Vanessa had 28k. They were so happy Laura hugged Riker and Vanessa kissed Riker. Riker was ecstatically happy and asked Vanessa out. Unsurprisingly, Vanessa said yes. Right there, they both knew, that it was the best day of their lives.

It was 2 hours later and they finally arrived at Los Angeles.

"Where does your Aunt and Uncle live?" Riker asked the both of them, eager to know.

"They live at that brick house right there." Vanessa responded to Riker, happily. Laura, On the other hand, sat still, still having a strong hate with R5.

"Thanks for the ride." Laura said glumly, trying to leave as fast as she could.

"No biggy. Remember if you need anything, just call." Riker smiled. Laura was impressed. That was quite generous of him.

"Thank you." Laura smiled, but this time the smile didn't look as fake.

"Of course." Riker stepped into his car, and drove away.

"Well sis, it's been a crazy ride, but we're finally here." Vanessa smiled, not waiting to open the door.

"Yup, here we are." Laura rang the doorbell, eager to see their aunt and uncle. Then, someone answered the door.

???: "What are you freaks doing here?"

Laura and Vanessa just stand there with shocked looks.
