Amazing things (Ryland Lynch love story)

Chapter 24

~3 weeks later~

Kameryn's POV~

So Ryland and I have been dating for about a month and a half, and I've been best friends with everyone for a little over 2 months now.

But today is a sad day. Today is the day before everyone has to go back to California. Leaving me, Morgan, and Kaitlyn to miss them like crazy.

I can't believe we've grown so close to them. I never knew just a couple people could make someone's life so perfect. Ryland and I have a perfect relationship, Morgan and Riker are like one of the cutest couples like EVER, and Kaitlyn and Ross are still the best of friends, like peanut butter and jelly. Although, I still feel like Ross has feelings for Kaitlyn, I just can't shake the feeling. But I guess it dosn't matter.

I was lying on a towel next to Rydel at the beach. The girls (me, Rydel, Morgan, Kaitlyn, Kelly, and Stormie), decided to have one last girls trip to the beach. We won't be able to do this until spring break, maybe before if they get a break from touring and recording their album. As I lied there, soaking up the sun, I drowned out the talking coming from everyone else, I'll just join that conversation later. I started thinking about everything. I'm gonna miss them so much. It's gonna be so weird not waking up to them playfully shouting every morning, and not always going to dinner and movies, and not being able to cook for them. I'm really gonna miss Rydel doing my hair and make up, Kelly doing my nails, making fun of Rocky with that red head, my late night movies with Ross, having Riker act as a big brother to me, Ratliff going crazy over my "leprechaun" waffles, getting advise from Stormie, having Mark as a father figure, ...and Ryland. I'm gonna miss him so much. I don't know what I'm going to do with out him. Before I met him I had this weight on my shoulders. Just built up fear from Derek, and the thought of not having a father, two people who were supposed to love me unconditionally, don't even care. That pain always hung over me. Ryland made that disappear, he made all my worries go away. I'm afraid that without getting his hugs and kisses everyday, and him telling me everything will be ok, and knowing that he's there to protect me, without all that, all that fear will come back.

I've always had my mom, Kaitlyn, and Morgan. But they never understood. Morgan has an amazing dad and never dealt with an abusive boyfriend. And Kaitlyn goes through the same thing I do with our dad, but it effects me differently. She wants nothing to do with him, for some reason I feel like I have to have something to do with him.

Ryland was the only one who got it. He may not have fully understood because he has amazing parents and siblings, and has never dealt with anyone abusing him much less in a relationship. But he still helps me, and he did what no one else has ever done.

He took all the pain and fear away.

"Kameryn, Kamy, Kameryn!!!" Someone was shaking my shoulder. I opened my eyes and saw everyone looking down at me with worried expressions. "Sweetie, what's wrong?", Stormie asked while rubbing my arm. I wiped my face and felt something wet. I'm crying. "I- I'm just really gonna miss you guys", I said with a trembling voice. They all looked at me with sad eyes, probably knowing that was the truth, just not the whole truth.

Rydel wrapped me in a hug and kinda rocked me back and forth. "It's gonna be ok sweetie. We'll talk every single day and send pictures and videos, and face time. And Ryland will be just a call away too, I know he'll never miss a chance to talk to you." I smiled and burried my head in Rydel's shoulder. I gave her one last squeeze in my hug and finally pulled away. "Thanks Rydel, I just don't know what I'm gonna do without you guys." They all gave me sad smiles and I could tell Kaitlyn and Morgan felt the same way I did.

We stayed at the beach for a couple hours and it was now 11:00, we got here really early so we could have a filled day. We packed all our stuff into the van and loaded it up. We all got in and I was in the back, next to the window and Kelly. For the entire ride to the hotel I just leaned my head out the window and watched the scenery. There wern't many conversations, I think everyone was just lost in their thoughts.
