If I can't be with you

Back in LA

Sophies Point of View

We were back in LA after South America. I loved it there. Andre offered me the job as his PA on a permanent basis, so I definitely had to look for an appartement. Rydel and Ross offered me to look for one with me together. We already saw three different appartements, but none of it were good enough. We were at the fourth appartement and it also wasn't really good. But I got frustrated and I needed a place to live.

"Guys, I think, I'm gonna take this, one. I mean, I need a place to live. I can't live in a hotel for forever." I told Rydel and Ross.

"NO!!!" both screamed in unsion.

"You can't take this appartement. It is gross. And the neighbourhood also isn't really good. I'm not sure, if you would be safe here." Rydel said.

"You know, you could move in with us together. We found a house, where the band and I are moving to and there is still a free room. You could have it." Ross offered me.

"Oh yeah, that would be great. I wouldn't be the only girl in the house. I would love it to have you around." Rydel beamed.

"I don't know guys. I mean, what would Andre think, when I move in with you together. I'm supposed to work for you. I don't think, that this is appropriate." I hesitated.

"I would like to remind you, that you're not working for us. You're working for Andre. At least that's, what you told me, when we met." Ross said.

"Yeah, but you're one of Andre's clients. And I don' think that he would appreciate it." I replied.

"We talk to Andre. He wants you to stay in LA and work for him and for us. We will convince him." Ross said. I gave in.

"Ok, if you convince him, than I move in with you." So Rydel and Ross called Andre and convinced him, that I would move in with them together. I guess I put on a good show for Andre, so he had no doubts about me moving in with Ross. They were happy and me too. We decided that we should celebrate. So we called the rest of the band and Ryland and also invited Alexa and Savannah, Rylands girlfriend.

"Guys, I think we should give a Halloween house warming party." Riker said. "This would be the best house warming party ever. The whole decoration would be halloween themed and maybe we could turn our new house into a haunted house." We all agreed on that.

"I love Halloween." Ross whispered into my ear. "What about you?"

"Honestly, I'm a little coward, but still Halloween is fun. And I think, if I help turning our house into a haunted house, than I hope, that I won't be that scared." I replied. "You don't need to be scared. I will be by your side." he still whispered into my ear. This made me shiver. I felt a thousand butterflies in my stomach.

A week later we all moved into the house. It was amazing. My room was next to Rydels and across from Ross'. Ellington and Rydel decided to have separate rooms, but they still shared one of their rooms every night. Ross had started to film Austin and Ally again, so most of the days, he was on the set the whole day. At night, we went to so many concerts, as he promised before South America. We all became so close. I spend most of my days in Andre's office to plan everything for Ross and the band.

In a few days, Ross and I were supposed to fly to Miami. He was on an Award show, presenting an Award. He asked me to come with him. I was so excited. Just Ross and me.
