Ross Lynch Imagines

Spin-Off VI

  It's June 9th, which means today marks two months since Alex proposed to you. In two more months is the wedding, which is set for August 10th. In two more months you, your family, Alex, and Alex's family will be flying to Paris, France to get married. In two months, you'll be Alex's wife. Mrs. Fernando. It doesn't ring as well as it use to. Mrs. Y/N Fernando? No, you're maiden name definitely sounds more intriguing.

   The wedding plans are coming along smoothly, which is great news. Wedding invitations have been sent out, after sampling an abundance of cake flavors, you and Alex selected a cake, you the ceremony at a little cute French chapel, you booked a venue for the reception and a DJ that plays music other than French tunes, and you two picked out the décor. You always dreamed of having your wedding in Paris, with the perfect guy, and the church to be decorated with vintage décor. As of now, two of those things are questionable.

   Beginning with the décor, it is not at anyway vintage. Alex despised of anything too vintage. When you two were shopping with Angeline for decorations, you and Alex constantly disagreed. Alex wanted more of a modern look. He wanted everything to be white and silver, which you thought would just look bland and gaudy.

  "But Alex, my wedding dress is going to be white," you had argued. "Vintage is more elegant."

    You wanted twinkling, streaming light bulbs, flickering candles, red roses, a beige lace aisle runner, and matching beige pew bows. Even Angeline liked your taste, but Alex still held his stance.

    "Honey, it's my wedding too," Alex said. "I already gave you your dream wedding in Paris which is elegant or whatever you keep fussing about... But can't you meet me halfway so I'm happy too?"

    Instead of a vintage wedding, it's going to be a white and silver setting.

   Not only are you getting irritated with Alex, but you and Ross are now seeing each other on a daily basis. Whenever Alex is at work, Ross comes over, or whenever you get home from work, you stop by Ross' place for a few hours or more. Each time you two are together, the guilt decreases more and more. You realize that sounds bad, but every time you are with him all you stress and nuisances fade away. He makes you feel so much better.

   You realize you are now committing yourself to a full-time cheating relationship with someone else and your wedding is coming up soon. You know you'll have to end eventually, but now you wanted to enjoy the thrill of it. Around Ross you'll never admit you have feelings for him or that you specifically love being with him in more than a friendship way, but he knows it nonetheless. Besides, both of you sort of fell in love with the secrecy of it and having to sneak around. You two have done so much in these past two months of this secret...whatever it is.

Friends with benefits? No, you two do more than just have sex. He takes you out places, you two kiss in public, he sends you flowers—basically, you two act like a couple in love. Well, you have no clue what to label you two.

So far, after the day Ross showed you the Starry Night graffiti, you two invested into each other much more. You two went on dates (brunch, dinner, picnics, beach days, baseball games, etc.), walks in the city, driving without a destination some nights, or just spending lazy days indoors. Being with Ross, he makes you feel like you're free, high, and beautiful. Being with him, is like doing everything you never had the chance to do when you were a teenager.

Sneaking out of the house, late nights under the stars, going on adventures, getting out of town, keeping secrets from your parents (in this case, Alex), driving around, getting lost, endless laughter, happiness, kissing, and feeling like you're falling in love.

Suddenly, a loud ringing noise interrupts your thoughts. Alex is on-call, so it must be Ross. You eagerly pick up your phone, your lips unknowingly form into a smile.

"Let me guess," you said into the phone with a grin. "You have another adventure in store with us, Ross?"

"Ross?" A voice too high for Ross' says in your ear. You glance at your phone screen, internally screaming when you saw Josephine's (your sister) caller I.D.

"Sorry Jo," you heave a sigh. "I didn't see it was you..."

"What's this about another adventure Ross has planned?" Josephine snickers teasingly.

You roll your eyes, "Josephine, would you stop being like that?"

"Like what?"

"Annoying and nosy!"

"Geez, I haven't talked to you in a weeks and you're already pissed at me," Josephine chuckles.

"Sorry," you say. "Just tired, is all."

"You sound disappointed that it's me," she tells you. "Would you rather me be Ross?"

"Jo, stop," you groan. "Just tell me what you want?"

"Mom wanted to ask how you are and how the wedding planning is going," Jo explains.

"Then she could have called me."

"Well, I wanted to talk to you," Jo defends. "Besides, the last time we talked you sound irritable and hasty."

"I told you, tired."

"Is everything okay with Alex?" She asks. "Mom told me he's been pissing you off."

Ugh, your mom.

"It's fine."

"Okay," she sighs hesitantly. "So you and Ross are going on adventures?"

You roll your eyes, knowing she won't let it go if you don't give her something. So you explain to her that Ross is taking you on all of these "adventures" that you can't do when you're married. She then freaked out, teasingly implying that Ross must love you and how sweet, romantic, and cute he is. After that you lied and said you had to go because Alex just arrived home.

After the phone call with your sister, you sent Ross a brief text. You can't keep doing this anymore. One, it's absolutely wrong. But also you're engaged, it's pitiful, sinful, and Jo probably has her suspicions now. Besides, what if someone sees you two together and reports it to Alex? Or what if one day Alex walks in on you two?

You're a cheating whore, which makes you feel disgusted with yourself.

You: We need to take a break. Don't call me or try to see me. I'm getting married and I need to focus on Alex and this wedding without any distractions. Bye.
