Ria

Me and Sam have been like brother and sister since the day we met. we did everything together, and loved eachother like family. I would take a billet for him because I could never loose him. Ever.

I thought family was all we would ever be. We all have someone like that, and most of the time you would never suddenly doubt whether the immense love would turn into something else.

I loved Sam, yes. I have always loved him as my brother. We were inseperable; life had tried many times be always stuck together. I thought we were the closest two humans could ever get.

People asked me sometimes, "Why aren't you guys dating?"

I always answered, "Would you date your brother? Incest!"

And I'd always put on a disgusted face and laugh. Eventually, everyone knew we were the two hooligan siblings, never alone without the other.

I never thought of Sam as handsome. Maybe a little-kid cute, but again, that's different. It always was different.

But then, when Sam marched back to me with the determination of a little boy opening a stuck jar lid, I melted.

When he put his hand on my chin and forced my head up, I boiled and bubbled.

And when he roughly slammed his lips warm lips onto mine, I evaporated and floated above the ground as a weightless cloud: Cloud 9 that is.

After a few frozen moments, I rested my hands on his tense shoulders and they relaxed. His hands traveled down to my waist, leaving fiery trails on my skin.

When he pulled away, I looked down at my feet, flustered. He again forced my eyes to look into his with his hand. His face was a tomato and he was breathing hard. His body shook with adrenaline.

"You," he breathed, "are my strength. I realized that. Without it, I'm nothing but a shaky little boy stuck in the past."

I nodded and his hand dropped from my chin. We were silent for a while, playing with our fingers.

"I've never liked change." I narrowed my eyes. The corners of his mouth fell as I quickly smiled my reassurance. "But it's going to happen in life. And here's where I start accepting it."

He smiled along with me, which made me grin even wider. I pulled him in for a hug.

We both knew that this was the start of a new, more normal teenage life. We could be young, and free. Sam agreed to start being less shy and live a little more: without changing who he was, of course.

I was excited and happy and everything great. The bad days were behind us and all the loose ends were tied. No big problems, no major worries.

No more dips.

One thing me and Ria forgot:

People weren't used to us being anything besides siblings.

This was a whole different animal. Telling everyone was going to be like starting an earthquake... or a nuclear war. But I didn't say that because Ria was already freaking out.

Literally.

Oh, and along with that, Brooklyn. Uck. She will despise Ri even more now...

"Okay...so let's just not tell anyone." she was pacing and thinking of how to deal with the situation. She enjoyed being social; she liked having people around her. She got antsy when she was alone.

I stared at her wide-eyed, and began shaking my head violently.

"We...pretended like nothing happened? Ri, I don't think I-"

"No, no. Of course not. Just in front of... people. Or we can ease into it...? We just don't want to send a shockwave through everyone and BOOM! everything explodes!" she whined in worry, and continued pacing back and forth. I laughed and hugged her gently from behind, lacing my fingers with hers.

"Arielana, stop worrying so much." she relaxed her muscles as just breathed as I swayed with her in my arms and my chin resting on her shoulder. I closed my eyes and took in the moment. Before, our world had been as rushed as water, but now it was slow and calm. I smiled.

I was enjoying this new comfort and feeling of safety. It felt right, like this is what the universe wanted this whole time and we were to stubborn to open our eyes and see it.

We took our own path of relationship, like a little detour. I mean, we still got here eventually, right? Are you happy, universe?

Because I am.

Told you so.

Shut up, universe.

"It will all be fine." I whispered in her ear to comfort her.

She sighed and turned around to face me. I let her go and smiled lightly, hoping she would too.

"Okay." she said quietly. She nodded to herself. "It will all be fine."

"Yes it will. Now stop worrying and let's get something to eat." I held out my arm for her. she linked hers with mine and we skipped to the door, laughing and discussing where to go.

As we walked down the side walk, she looked around at the scenery, smiling to herself as her hair blew slightly in the breeze.

I stared at her with a content smile in my face. I always knew she was beautiful, and now I could fully admit it and let it mean something.

"What are you looking at?" She her cheeks were tinged pink.

"You."

"Why?"

"Because now I can say you're gorgeous."

She laughed and hit my arm. I smiled and hit her back. We had our little war all the way to the local pizza pub.

Happy little chapter:)
