Risk it for the biscuit || Roadtrip

Chapter 61

The next day have passed on everyone just chilling out. Mikey and Rose took advantage of the separate room and had a Vampire Diaries marathon. Jack and Amanda found some weird game they played for around 3 hours now, whereas Brook was stuck to his phone, passionately reading something. Andy and Rye were currently in the kitchen, making teas for everyone. The situation wasn't super exciting, but everyone seemed happy.

However, it wasn't the case for Belle who was in a bad mood since the morning. It wasn't a good day for her, she had a neck and back pain from sleeping on the sofa, still tired, even after 7 hours of sleep. She got hundreds of e-mails about her secret project, the band or school. Her Christmas holiday and New Year were amazing, but she fell behind in work she had to do now. There was so much of everything, that all she did was to drop everything and check social medias.

Sometimes she was checking comments underneath Roadtrip's posts on Twitter or Instagram to see any ideas of covers or videos that roadies wanted to see. For her it was so much easier as even if she was getting many notifications, it was more than 4 times less than the boys did. She quickly stood up to find Andy, having an amazing idea for the cover. She was about to step into the kitchen when she heard Rye talking.

"Everything is exactly how it's supposed to be" the brown haired boy said harshly, leaving Andy in a shocked state. Belle suddenly started feeling stressed, almost as if she knew they spoke about her.

"Is it really though?" Andy asked, trying to get any signs of Rye lying. The boy was always a closed book: not too many people actually knew him well. However, a quick and strong "yes" broke Andy's thoughts.

Belle just quietly moved away from the door, deciding that she heard enough. The situation between her and Rye was really bothering her, it got to the point that she wanted to speak with him about everything - but if he chose he likes the way it is now, she will step back. Nothing against him.

She walked out of the flat, spontaneously going for a quick run. As the main door closed behind her, Andy asked Rye one more question. "It's exactly how it's supposed to be, but do you want it to be like that?"

Rye gave himself couple of second to think it through, but his answer was obvious. "No" he said quietly. He was too tired to even lie about it all. "I'm going to go and take a shower" he said, not wanting to continue the conversation anymore.

Andy just nodded his head, happy with the results. He still didn't know what happened, but Rye wanted it to be back like it was before, and he was sure Belle did as well. He walked back to the main room, seeing the brown haired girl wasn't there, which was even better for him. He'll have time to speak with his friends about it all.

"Guys, we need to talk" He said, after he gathered everyone in the room. "We need to sort out the situation between Belle and Rye. It's affecting everyone" he said, getting nods from everyone.

He didn't know why he took everything so seriously. Maybe he felt like he needed to help them, exactly like they helped him with bringing Amanda here. Maybe it was his way of saying thank you for putting so much effort into making him happy. Or maybe; maybe he saw and truly believe they could be together; maybe their relationship could work. "What should we do?" Amanda broke his thoughts with her question.

"No one knows what they did and they have too much pride to tell us. We need to convince them to talk. Not with us, but with themselves" he answered.

"I can speak with Rye, maybe I will help" Brook said straight away, gathering everyone's attention. He was really closed up since he came back to flat, but he still cared about his friends. Rye was always there for him when he needed someone to talk to and he knew that now he could help his friend instead.
