Lust and Lies

Crash

The rest of the chapters will focus on the other characters rather than just Kristen's, I might add Vivian to the mix.

Kristen's pov

Richard and I went to lunch at Subway and then went to the beach where we got in our feelings and talked about our future.

"Graduation is next month, I've been applying to some colleges but I haven't heard anything, I've been looking online and I might try Art Institutes. I'm not sure though."
"I'm sure you'll figure it out. Depending on where you go or whatever I want to move with you."
"Wait really?"
"Totally I want to go wherever you go. If you go online okay great we can stay here or move whenever we need too, if you have to leave we'll leave."
"What about your job?"
"We have other locations it isn't just here."

I smiled and kissed his neck.

"Okay great. I do want to leave though, somewhere safer and not so close to my parents, not anytime soon though just when I graduate, I want to start over, with you."
"Okay whenever you're ready."

We sat on the beach watching the waves crash onto each other, everything was peaceful. We had nothing to worry about. Until my mom called.

"Hello?" I said confused
"Hi hun we haven't talked in a while what's up?"
"Oh nothing just at the beach with some friends."
"Oh cool who?"
"Oh uh Courtney."
"That's nice. Have you talked to Rich?" I felt my heart drop.
"Yeah a few days ago he asked me how I was doing."
"Oh nice. We haven't been connecting as much lately. It makes me wonder if there is someone else."
"Richard? He wouldn't do something like that."
"Yeah okay well by now love you."

She hung up and I looked toward Richard. I kissed him and put my head on his shoulder.

"I love you Richard."
"I love you too."

The rest of the day we stayed on the beach then eventually went home.

-Sunday-

Richard's pov

Today is the day we tell everyone about our relationship we've been keeping secret. I texted Avery to come to dinner and Kristen texted her dad. Everything was set, we made the reservation at a Mexican restaurant and we were all going to meet around 6 o'clock. Kristen and I were laying in bed when I checked the clock, it read 9:47 AM. I eventually woke her up and made breakfast for the two of us.

It was around 3 when Kristen left for her house so she would have time to get ready. When she left I cleaned up the entire house so nothing of hers was left out where Avery could find, even though I'm sure she wouldn't be coming home tonight. I was cleaning up the mess in the bedroom from the wild nights before when I got a call. I answered and on the other end was Avery.

"Hey baby" she said exited
"Hi Ave, what's up are you on your way yet?" I asked.
"Yeah I am I left a few minutes ago. I should be there around 4 or so."
"Okay great, dinner is at 6."
"I'm a little nervous, everyone together at one time that's a little nerve racking."
"I know it will be fine." I said unsure.
"Yeah I guess s-." She was cut off, I heard the sound of banging and the call ended.
