The Girl At The Bar | Rye Beaumont

26 - I Love You

"so are we going back home?" I ask rye once I buckle my seat belt.

"not just yet" he says and starts the car.

We ended up driving to my old job, yes the bar. I looked at rye confused.

"why are we here?" I ask confused.

"well... I thought you would want to see someone" he says and steps out the car.

We walk in and then someone jumps up from behind the bar and shouts.

"boo!"

"oh my g-" I say then when u make eye contact with them the biggest smile appears on my face.

"Elsie" I say running up to my sister.

"hey" she says giving me a big hug.

"you never told me you where going to be in town" I smile.

"well when I figured out that you didn't tell me you had a boyfriend I had to come here and make sure he is not going to dare hurt my baby sister" she says with a laugh at the end.

"well thanks, to both of yous" I say to rye and Elsie.

"well we kinda do need to go home lex, but it was nice meeting you" rye says to my sister.

"of course and we can hang out soon" Elsie says to me.

"yeah" I say and hug her goodbye.

"okay rye you're to sweet" I say walking back to the car with him.

"I just want you to be happy" he says and wraps a arm around my waist.

Andys pov ~

Brooklyn and sonny are showing lolly some weird dance move.

I am live on tiktok and Jack has a burnt a pizza.

So yeah life is great.

Then the door opens and rye and Lexi walk in.

"hey guys" I say looking over to them.

"hey--is something burning" Lexi says confused.

"I burnt a pizza" Jack says raising his hand proudly.

"of course it was you!" she laughs.

"that's it!" he says and throws her to the couch and gets on top of and tickles her while she hysterically laughs.

I look over to rye who seems jealous but trying to hide it.

I was going to say something but instead sonny did.

Sonny's Pov ~

"rye can you come upstairs for a sec?" I asks him.

"sure" rye says.

We walk upstairs and into the hall so Lexi couldn't see us.

"so are you okay?" I ask him.

"yeah" he says crossing his arms confused "yeah I'm fine" he says trying to smile.

"you're not" I say to him.

"what do you mean?" he says a but annoyed.

"Lexi and Jack" I say in a duh tone.

"don't think I haven't noticed how close they are, I mean that as friends of course and they have said many times that they don't like each other that way-" I say

"what's your point?" rye says annoyed

"there's no easy way to say this but are you maybe jealous?" I ask him.

"no!" he says

"maybe a little bit, but I don't want to be that boyfriend that gets jealous" he says panicking a bit.

"talk to her" I say

"I will try" he says nervous.

Rye's pov ~

How am I supposed to talk to her?

I walk downstairs to Jack and Lexi playing with water guns in the kitchen.

"oh no my chicken!" Brook says in a weird voice after Jack accidentally knocks the chicken of his hands.

"well I need to go but it was nice catching up with you guys" lolly says then leaves.

"hey lex can we talk?" I say walking into the kitchen nervously.

"haha Jack I almost got you!" she laughs.

"Lexi" I say louder.

"oh sorry" she says and turns around and water goes all over me.

She and Jack start laughing together.

"you know what forget it" I say and walk upstairs.

Lexi's pov

I think Rye's sad.

"hey Jack I'm going to go upstairs" I say sitting the water gun on the table.

"okay bye" he says and hugs me.

I walk upstairs and knock on the door.

"hey rye?" I say awkwardly. I then open the door.

He is lying in bed on his phone.

"hey" I say in a jolly tone

He looks at me then straight back to his phone.

"hmm silent treatment" I say walking around the room.

"will a hug make it better?" I say smiling.

"was it because I soaked you" I say pouting my lips.

"Lexi stop" he says.

"wow he talks!" I say acting shocked.

"just leave me alone" he says annoyed.

"why? " I say confused.

"Why? You are seriously asking me why, you and Jack that's why! Are you happy now" he says upset.

"what do you mean?" I ask confused.

"yous to are so close and hanging so much and I don't know... I guess I maybe got a bit jealous" he says fiddling with his fingers.

"oh now I feel bad, you should have told me sooner and jack will always be my best friend nothing more nothing less" I tell him and lie down with him.

"I know I just didn't want to sound like a really jealous boyfriend" he says and pulls me close to him.

"I just care for you and...i....I love you" he says with a small smile.

"you love me?" I say with a smile.

"very much" he says.

"I love you too" I say with a smile.

I pull the collar of his fleece towards me so I can kiss him. He moves his hands to my waist and I take of his fleece, he takes of my shirt and I get on top of him and continue kissing him. (let's just say things happened, If ya know what I mean)

Next day

I look over to see rye by my side

"hey beautiful" he says and strokes my hair.

"hey cutie" I smile.

"last night was-" he says but I cut him off.

"amazing" I say.

He nods his head.

"anyway I want breakfast, so bye!" I say and run out of bed.

"wait!" rye says before I leave.

"can you bring me some toast?!" he says.

"no get yourself!" I shout and run downstairs
