If I can't be with you

Halloween

Sophies Point of View

It has been a week since we've came back from Miami. We were hiding our relationship from everybody. Every day I fell more and more for him. He was perfect. At nights we were sneacking into eachothers bedrooms just to spend the night. During the days he stole kisses from me whenever no one was watching. It was hard not to touch him everytime.

Today was our halloween party in our house. Everyone was coming, family and friends. We changed the house into a haunted house and to be honest it was great. Exactly like Riker pictured it. We got some ideas before, because we went to a couple of haunted houses. They were so scary but Ross helped me through them. Holding my hand when I needed it. Fortunately no one realized it. But to be honest we weren't that secretive.

I didn't know what Ross was dressing for tonight, but I thought about it my costume really hard and came up with the perfect idea. I decided to go as a dead female harlequinn. I looked awesome. Rydel helped me with the make up. I wasn't recognizable anymore.

Rydel and Ellington decided to have a couple costume. They were John Bender and Claire Standish from the Breakfast club. Such a cool idea. It was perfect. But to be honest I couldn't wait to see Ross. And I couldn't wait to hear what he was thinking about my costume.

The party had allready started when I came downstairs. It wasn't that full yet. Just the families and a few friends. But I couldn't see Ross. Damn, I should have asked him what he was dressing up at. I scanned the room when someone closed my eyes from behind with his hands.

"Boo!" a familiar voice said. I turned around and there was Ross, dressed up as the Joker from Batman. Wow he looked amazing. Crazy and hot at the same time. Only Ross Lynch could do that.

"What a coincidence," I said, "you as Joker and me as a dead Harlequinn." I smirked.

"Yeah and without even talk about it before. You look hot by the way. But this has to wait till later. Want to scare some people with me? I know the perfect room for us." he said and dragged me behind into Rydels room. We dimmed the light in there and made it look like a giant dollhouse. But way creepier. I sat down on a stool like a broken doll while Ross was standing in a corner. We didn't move. Creepy child music was playing in the background.

The next ones who entered were Ryland and Savannah. They looked like they were searching for a room to make out. They didn't realize that we were in the room. When they started kissing Ross started to giggle really creepy and I jumped up from the stool and dancing with a crazy laugh. Both of them started to scream. The both of us started to laugh. Ry and Sav realized that it were us.

"Well played bro!" Ry said, "Better watch your backs!" Then he smiled and left. We did this little routine for a couple of times and it was so much fun. After a while we got thirsty. I really wanted some alcohol, but Ross wasn't allowed to drink. Especially with his parents at the party.

"You know you could get me something to drink without my parents knowing!" he whispered.

"I don't know! What if your parents see this?" I replied.

"You know it wouldn't be my first drink and I want to party with my girl." he smirked. I gave in and got us something to drink. The party was really a blast. Ross and I were dancing a lot with the others. But Ross drank to much. To be honest he was really drunk. He started to stumble around. I could see that his parents realized that he was drunk. They were pissed.

I lost sight of Ross. Then I heard his voice in the living room claiming that he had something to say. Then he screamed my name. I walked into the living room.

"There she is! Look at this beautiful young lady! Isn't she just gorgeous?" he yelled. What was he about to do? He wouldn't right? Would he?

"I have to tell you something. I can't hold it back anymore! I love ... Uurrggh!" Then he vomited just in front of everybody. Well, not that I was glad that he felt bad, but I was glad that he wasn't able to tell the others about us. I approached him to help him because he laid on the floor. His parents were also approaching him.

"Ross! We will talk about this tomorrow! Now get sober for the birthday of your brother tomorrow!" Stormie said.

"I'll take him and bring him to bed." I said to his parents. They nodded and left us.

"Come on Rockstar, let's get you cleaned up and then you need some sleep." I said to him and then helped him up from the floor. I slung one of his arms around my shoulders and dragged him upstairs. I brought him into my bathroom to clean him up. I washed his face and let him brush his teeth. Then I dragged him into my bedroom. Luckily we didn't use this room for the haunted house. I laid him down on my bed and pulled off his shoes.

"Soph? I have to tell you something!" I looked at him.

"Can't it wait till tomorrow?" I asked.

"No! I have to say it! I love you! I'm unconditionally in love with you!" he said.

"You're drunk. You don't mean it!" I said smiling.

"No, I mean it!"

"Okay! Now sleep. We talk about it tomorrow." I replied.

"Mmhh, just don't leave! Lay here with me!" he mumbled tired. I locked the door and laid down next to him. Before I fell asleep, I thought, that Ross just said that he loved me. Would he remember this the next morning?
