Lost (R5 fan fiction and Book I of The Adopted Series)

Chapter 10

Recap:

Rike set into a sprint and ran to where the voice was. Rydel chased after him and I, being the lazy one, walked after them. When I reached them, I saw that Ryland needed help getting down from a huge stack of who knows what. I facepalmed and watched as Ryland struggled. After about what seemed like 10 minutes, Riker finally got Ryland out of the mess he made. We went to the check out line and that was when Ryland began to question my baking skills.

"Are you sure you're good at baking?" Ryland began.

"Yes." I answered plainly.

Once we had payed for the ingredients, some store staff came running after us because they saw Ryland make a mess. We bolted to the car and locked ourselves in. I had realized that they had my phone.

"You guys, they were chasing after us to give me back my phone." I said.

I opened the car door and I stepped out.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cece's point of view:

The store staff approached me and acted pretty weird.

"Err....you left your phone back in the store. We saw you walking to an aisle and saw your phone fall out of your pocket and we decided to follow you. We didn't mean to scare you, it wasn't intentional." The short female spoke up.

I smiled. "Thank you."

Both, the female and male worker went back to the store completely oblivious to what Ryland had done. I got back into the car and we headed home. I didn't really speak on the way home, which was so unlike me. I just thought about how different my life was turning out to be.

"Hey, are you alright?" Rydel asked me.

"Me? I'm perfectly fine, I've just been overthinking, that's all." I simply answered.

"Alrighty then, if you need to talk it out, I'm here." Rydel said.

"Why, thank you very much!" I exclaimed.

As soon as we got home, we all pitched in and took several grocery bags with us so we wouldn't come back to get them. Riker took a very long time to pick out the house key. Turns out, he has keys for everything. He has a key to his room, a key to his drawers, a key to his laptop case, a key to his journal, and many more. I went ahead and took out the ingredients to make dessert. Rydel joined in and helped me. Pretty soon, Ryland started helping. Rydel, Ryland, and I decided to make an mnm cake a long with brownies. Riker, Rocky, Ell, and Ross were cooking something, but I didn't know what. A couple minutes later, we had finished dessert and the boys had finished cooking. Surprisingly, they made tacos. Wow, the food was great.

"Why, thank you, Cece!" Rocky chirped.

"You have seriously got to stop reading my mind...what if I'm thinking about something private, like bras?" I respond.

"I'm not gonna stop." Rocky said.

"The cake and brownies are really good." Riker said.

"Thank you!" Rydel, Ryland, and I said in unison.

"You're welcome, but you have got to teach us how to make this. The boys and I will blow up the house on accident trying to make the cake." Riker explained.

Everyone laughed. I had really like the tacos the boys made...not Mexican style, but they were good.

"Tomorrow, I'm gonna cook for you guys. It's gonna be Mexican food, and I'll be talking nothing but Spanish." I said.

"That's not exactly fair because you'll be cooking and we won't help." Ross said.

"But it's alright. Don't worry, it doesn't take so long for me to cook. I have almost everything planned out." I responded.

I was gonna cook carne asada, guacamole, and Carla's special chile. I checked to see that I had everything for tomorrow. I went back to the lIving room from the kitchen to find Ryland and Ross playing a video game And yelling at the tv. I told my eyes at the scene. Boys will be boys. I heard upstairs to my room to watch tv. I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Rocky walking out of my room.

"Why were you in my room?" I asked.

"You'll see." Rocky said with a smirk on his face.

I rolled my eyes at him as I made my way into my room, before pushing Rocky. I saw a bunch of flowers. does this boy not understand I'm not interested? I'm flattered but I'm not interested in him. I got my laptop, turned it on, and went to teennick.com. I loved that channel and I was going to watch a couple clips of Zoey 101. My absolute favorite characters were Lola and Logan. I clicked on the episode 'Dippin Episode!" I was 5 minutes into the show when someone knocked on my door.
