The Boss's Son

Twelve - Make Up.

"Hey, Beau," i said as i picked up the phone.

"Hey, babe, we're done recording for today, so I'm all yours," he said, and I heard the smile on his face and the slight slam of his car door.

"Cool, does that mean you're coming to see me?" i smirked.

"It means I'm doing anything you want," i could almost see the smirk on his face.

"Then you're coming to pick me up," i smiled, "I'll see you soon!"

I hung up the phone with a smirk and shoved it in my pocket. I figured he wouldn't be too long, even if he was going to take Jack home first, so I chilled out for a bit, flicking aimlessly through channels on the TV before I heard a knock on the door.

I opened it slowly to reveal Rye, standing there with a rose in his hand. He smiled at me and handed me it, "hi."

"Hi," i blushed, smiling down at the rose in my hands.

"So, what would you like to do?" he asked quietly. I moved over to let him in and shut the door behind him.

"You," i smirked, pulling him upstairs and to my room.

He rolled his eyes but smirked, watching as i put the rose in a little vase before pulling me close, "so you don't hate me?"

I shook my head and kissed him softly, "i don't hate you."

"Good," he smiled, pulling me on top of him as he lay on my bed.

His fingers ran through my hair as he kissed me softly. I smirked against his lips and straddled his hips. He hummed softly into the kiss and pulled my hair as i bit his lip.

"Ella..." he mumbled, making me smirk. His hands cupped my face as he kissed me harder, moaning softly into the kiss. I hummed against his lips and started slowly grinding my hips against his.

Rye pulled my hoodie off and moved to kiss down my neck and to my collarbone, mumbling against my skin, "so beautiful.."

I pulled him up to kiss him again, though we were distracted by a noise downstairs. "What was that?" he whispered.

"I don't know," i frowned, standing up, "what time is it?"

"I don't know, like ten thirty?"

"My mum must have finished work early," i said quietly, pulling him to stand up, then to follow me as i went downstairs.

"Wait, why am I going?" he whispered, "what if she hates me?"

"What if it's a burglar and not my mum?" i questioned.

"Fine," he sighed and followed me and thankfully, it was my mum.

"Hey mum, did you finish early?" i asked, giving her a hug.

"Yeah, we got everything done early and Sue said she'd stay so I could come home," she said softly and kissed my cheek, then turned when she saw Rye, "have you two made up then?"

Rye looked at her sheepishly and we both nodded. "Yeah we have, he took me to the aquarium," i smiled.

"Oh, well he had no chance if that didn't work," she chuckled.

"Jack said that," Rye chuckled.

"They're both probably definitely right," i admitted.

"Blair said i'm fine as long as i don't get distracted from RoadTrip," he said once we were alone again a little later.

I nodded, "so that's good, right? You don't have to keep anything from him?"

"No, but he wants me to tell my dad and i don't know what to do about that," he sighed.

"Wait, what?" i questioned, "you can't he'd kill me."

"I know," he said running a hand through his hair, "but Blair doesn't know who you are and i'm not willing to tell him in case he blabs."

"So what do we do?"

"I'm gonna put it off for as long as i can and deal with it another time," he mumbled.

"You can't just put it off, Ryan."

"I can until i figure out what to do. I mean-" he paused, thinking about it, "if i told him i had a girlfriend but didn't tell him who it was..."

"That could work but wouldn't he wanna know who she was eventually?"

"That's the problem," he nodded, "but like, he's gonna find out eventually anyway, i'm not gonna keep you a secret forever, am i?"

 I shrugged, i hadn't really thought about that. Of course if we stayed together, his family would find out, but what if he hated me for it? "I didn't think that far ahead, if you're gonna tell him at all, you may as well tell him it's me.."

"Are you sure?"

I nodded, "if he's gonna find out eventually, we may as well just tell him. I could always find a new job if he's a dick."

He sighed and nodded, "can you afford that?"

"Yeah, i'm pretty good for money," i chuckled, "plus it's payday this Friday either way."

He took a deep breath and nodded, "okay, so i'll tell him." He looked down at the floor as he spoke.

I put an arm around him, "you don't have to," i said softly.

He shook his head and finally looked at me, "i do."

"Well, do you want me to tell him with you?" i asked, kissing his cheek.

"Really?" he questioned, "i honestly don't know how he's gonna react, y'know."

I nodded, "of course. If you want me to, that is. I don't wanna intrude but i'm here for you if you need me, Beau."

He smiled and kissed me softly, wrapping his arms around my waist, "you're the best."

"I try," i teased, kissing his nose, "but hey, i love you, i'd do anything for you."

"I love you too, thank you for being here,." he smiled, kissing my forehead.
