Paper Planes

boats // seven

dear Robert,

so, we're on first name basis now?

guess what, I find out your middle name!! hahaha

oh my god you are so obnoxious, but it was nice talking to you in person too:))

I told you, it's fine that you ignored me.. I still don't know why though..

never mind, I don't need to know lol

yeah, it kinda pissed me off when you didn't reply to my letter, but it's okay

what's with the planes by the way? like, can't they be paper boats?

I mean, technically, we are sort of like boats. you know, just drifting off and trying to make it through storms and waves...

song writing's been fine. how's yours? been getting a lot of ideas for lyrics:)

are you serious? what was his name? haha he's creepier than you are.. I get why you guys are bio partners lol

"I admit I've been a fool for playing by the rules"

-I don't have a second name mwahaha

"Hey, Alice?"

"Helloooo?"

"I'm sorry, what?" She blinked a few times and turned to her boyfriend.

"Are you okay? You kinda zoned out a bit," Ryder cocked an eyebrow at her.

"Just thinking." She smiled and waved it off.

"Well, don't think too hard. We don't want that head of yours to explode," He joked with a laugh. "Also, don't crease your eyebrows too much. We don't want frown lines now, do we?"

"Did you just give me facial advice?" Alice mocked clutching her stomach in laughter.

"Ha-ha. Laugh all you want, but I'm just looking out for my baby girl." He pinched at her cheeks and kissed her forehead.

"God, you make me sound like I'm 8 and you're my dad." She whined.

"Whatever. If you don't want my help then I won't give it to you." He crossed his arms like a child and turned away from Alice, holding back a smile.

"Aww, come on baby, I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean it like that," She purred and pulled at Ryder's sleeve. "Please talk to me."

He shook his head in response instead.

"Fine. I guess if you won't talk to me, I'll have to find someone else to talk to." She began to stand up, when a pair of arms wrapped around her waist.

"Not so fast," He whispered pulling Alice down to his lap.

They smiled at each other. "I knew you'd come around."

"Just kiss me."

She landed her lips on his and it gave her the same feeling it always did, but something about it felt different.

"Hey, what's that?" He pointed to the plane from Luke once he pulled away.

"Oh, a letter."

"From?"

"Some guy in music class," She shrugged, biting her lip. She couldn't help it. Ryder was the jealous type, although he tried not to be.

"A guy huh?" She nodded. Alice was trying to play it cool, but she was freaking out on the inside.

"Well, let's see." He picked up the piece of paper and began to unfold it.

"Who the hell is this?!" He snapped, pushing her off his lap.

"It's nobody." She stood up straight and stared down at the letter.

"Well, it's obviously somebody if you're flirting with him."

"I am not flirting with him! I have a boyfriend, if you didn't notice?"

"A boyfriend you're cheating on!"

"And why would I cheat on you?" She crossed her arms over her chest, now furious.

"You would know. You're the one doing it,"

"Talking to another guy is not cheating. Besides, he knows about you."

"You have to end it." He says tossing the paper back in the bag.

"No way."

"It's him or me." He growls.

"I can't believe you're giving me an ultimatum." She rolled her eyes.

"Well, you better believe it. Now, end it? Or me?" He stood up and unofficially had a staring contest with each other.

The words replayed in her head, "End it or me?"

How could she possibly leave the guy she loves?
