Beyond the grave (Book 2)

Chapter 13- Unite

It'd been a week since that incident and everything had kinda gone back to normal. I'd seen my ex with her baby and I was grateful that Lucien had actually brought them back to life. Me and Justin weren't officially dating but at the same time we were? It was really confusing.

The others were in bed and I was watching tv with Justin, who had his arm around me again. "Ryan?"
"Yeah?"
"I need to ask you something..." I looked at Justin and he just smiled at me before he bent his head so his lips were touching my ear. "Will you go out with me RyRy?" He whispered, gently kissing my earlobe.  I shivered and nodded, but he pulled away and grabbed my chin in his hand. "I didn't hear that. Say it again."
"Yes...I'll date you..."
"Right answer." And with that, his lips were against mine and he was pushing me down to the couch, kissing me roughly and passionately.

Until Ricky walked in and basically fanboyed. "Oh my god! YOU'RE TOGETHER! I KNEW IT YOU BASTARD FUCK YES!" I didn't notice Ricky, so I fucking jumped out my skin and Justin just sat up, running his hands through his green hair. "Thanks I guess..." I muttered, hiding my burning face. Chris walked in with a half asleep look on his face and he looked at Ricky, pulling him close.

(Ricky)

"Ricky what's going on?" Chris yawned down my ear, making me laugh a bit. It tickled, not my fault. "Justin and Ryan are together!"
"Fair play. But did you have to scream like that?" I just shrugged and cuddled into him, when we started rocking side to side, like we were dancing. I rested my head against his shoulder as we "danced" together. Chris sighed happily and kissed my head.

"I could get used to this. No assignments, no drama just me and you, forever." He whispered, nuzzling into my neck. "Same here..." I whispered back, smiling and sighing happily. I distantly noticed Ryan and Justin cuddled and I smiled to myself. Those two were really cute together and honestly, I was glad they're together. I didn't like Ryan or Justin being lonely, they're both my best friends. Chris pulled away and followed my eye-line, chuckling to himself. "Yeah, they really are great together aren't they babe?" I nodded and he grinned, kissing me softly before he completely pulled away and smiled at me.

"I think it's about time we went on our first proper date, don't you Rickster?"
"Mhm..."
"Go put a suit on love." He said, slapping my ass and making me yelp with surprise. I looked at him and he was grinning like a madman, so I knew he had something spectacular planned. Nodding, I ran and got changed into my suit, confused and I sat down, doing my make up and my hair. When Chris walked in, he had his suit on, with his hair slicked back and eyeliner on with his eyebrows coloured in black.

"You look...amazing..." I said, awe struck at how good he could actually look. "So do you love. So are you ready?"
"Almost, I just need to put my shoes on. Where are we going, anyway?"
"Oh you'll see soon enough loverboy." I shook my head, smiling and I went to put my hideous shoes on that matched my suit, but Chris stopped me shockingly. "Put your boots on. The good ones you wear on stage." I raised an eyebrow and put my boots on, loving the height it gave me. Hell, when I was in them I was almost the same size as Chris. "Let's go." And I left, following Chris out of the bus and saying bye to the guys before I got into his car, which I'd never seen before. "You have a car?"

"It's the managers. Now be quiet and watch. You'll see where we're going soon enough." I nodded and put my seatbelt on the same time Chris did before he started the car and drove for about an hour, which started making me drowsy. "Ricky? Baby we're here." I looked and my eyes widened. He'd taken me to a 5* restaurant, with valet parking and a fucking chocolate fountain! "Whoa!" I gasped, clambering out of the car and clinging onto Chris, who'd walked around the car to me. "It gets better, trust me." I was confused, until I walked in and I saw Josh with Vinny, Angelo with Ashley and Tim skold. "Oh holy shit! Guys! I haven't seen you all in ages! Well, except from you Vin." I said, as we all sat down on a large table. I noticed how Ange sat next to Ash (Costello) and I smiled as I noticed them holding hands. I sat down next to Chris, Vinny was obviously next to Josh and Tim was sitting on his own at the end, on my left side.

"Chris, How ya been? I haven't seen you since the Bristol concert last year."
"I've been good...." I zoned out, reading the menu and trying to decide what to order. The waiter walked over and we all ordered our food and a large bottle of champagne, smiling and drinking with each other whilst we ate. "So, are you and Ricky a thing?"
"Yeah, I'm engaged to him..." Chris said, replying to Josh, who's eyes basically popped out of his head. "Holy shit that's great guys!" I smiled and nodded, blushing as Chris took over the conversations.

When we'd all eaten, and caught up properly we had to say goodbye, and I hugged everyone, smiling sadly. "We need to stay in contact more, you know?" Tim, Josh and Ange nodded, Ash smiling drunkenly and Vinny clinging onto Josh. "I'll let you two go back, I'll drop Vinny off tomorrow. Come on guys, bye you two!"
"See ya guys!" Me and Chris said, waving them goodbye. Chris turned me so I was facing him and dipped me down, the same way they did in the movies. I wrapped my arms around the back of his neck, laughing and looking into his beautiful brown eyes. He smiled back and kissed me until I went dizzy and my entire body was full of pins and needles. "Come on, lets go back to the others baby." He said, turning so I was on my feet again.

When we got back, Justin and Ryan were asleep on the couch, Ryan's head was on Justin's chest and I smiled again, what can I say? They're too cute together!
