Smile ~ A Ross Lynch Story (Editing)

Rock That Rock

Ross's Point of View

She told me her story and it honestly breaks my heart to think about. No wonder she doesn't want to smile. She's not happy enough to do so. She won't let herself be that happy.

But I don't know what to do. I've tried so many things to make her smile and so far, I've failed if you can't already tell.

It's become my mission to make her smile, I wanna see her smile, I wanna make her smile. It's become my goal. No matter what I have to do, I'm doing it.

She plans on leaving on her birthday. So this has to happen fast, before I wasn't so worried but now I'm on a deadline.

I really have no idea how I'm going to get her to smile. I've tried so many things. My siblings have told me that I should just give up. But I'm not giving up. I promised myself a long time ago that I won't quit on her, and I plan on keeping that promise.

Today we have a concert, maybe that'll help me clear my head a little bit with all this Callie drama. Oh did I mention that Callie won't talk to me? Some how a rumour got started that I'm helping Callie for a charity cause. That I'm not helping her because I want to, but because I was told to for a publicity stunt.

Who would do such a thing? What was their goal? To make Callie hate me and never want to see me? Well mission accomplished. Even her foster siblings hate me.

Why can't they see that I wouldn't do anything to hurt Callie? Ever.

Rydel and Rocky have told me numerous times that maybe Peyton was the one who spilled about me and Callie. But I always tell them that she wouldn't do that. Peyton took our break up like a muture adult. She wouldn't do that to me. Would she?

I shake away that thought in my head before starting to get dressed.

I change into a white long sleeved shirt and a pair of black jeans. I put on some pink socks, along with my black converse. I run a comb through my hair before exiting my room. There's no point in actually combing my hair when I'm just going to mess it up later.

I always run my fingers through my hair while I'm performing. I just can't help it.

I grab an apple for the ride before hopping into the van.

I've been getting asked a lot of questions about the whole Callie thing. And not just by my family. The fans seriously think that I hung out with Callie and her family for a publicity stunt, well at least some of them do. Others actually think the truth, that I would never do something like that! I mean would I go and buy each and every one of them Christmas presents if it was all just for a publicity stunt? If that was the case then my managment would've just bought them theirselves. But they're not and you wanna know why? Because I didn't befriend Callie and her family all for a publicity stunt!

We arrive at the venue 5 minutes late. Ellington thinks he needs to spend twice as long as everyone else getting ready. Even Rydel doesn't take that long and she's the girl of the group!

All of our instruments are set as we begin soundcheck. We only play the first verse and the chorus of some of our more complicated songs. Like the ones we've been playing the longest, we don't do. But the one's that are more recent, like from our newest EP are ones we'll go over.

This is our last concert for the year, we want to make it good.

By next year we will have more songs and hopefully another album. As we finish off Stay With Me, we take a break. Tuning our instruments or changing our guitars for the next number.

"Ross you okay?" Rocky asks. My whole family knows my dilemma, but have no idea how to help me.

"Not exactly. I really like Callie but she won't talk to me. And I have completely run out of ideas on how to make her smile." I explain.

"You'll figure something out." Rydel agrees. "Maybe you'll get some inspiration from the fans?"

---

Meet and Greet has begun and some of the questions these fans come up with are a little strange, and a little humerous.

"Is Rydellington real? Yes or no?" A fan that Rocky picked on asks.

"Can pigs fly?" Rocky answers. A bunch of awes are overheard throughout the crowd along with a bunch of people whispering that it is real, but it's a secret for now.

"What song are you most excited to play?" A fan that Riker chose asks. That's an easy one for me. I bring the mic up to my lips.

"Stay With Me." I answer. More awes are heard throughout the crowd. I'm guessing they think I'm referring to Peyton. Which I'm not, I'm talking about Callie. Yeah I miss Peyton but Callie is the one for me and I'm going to make it that way.

I just got to get her to hear me out and smile. That shouldn't be too hard. Sarcastic comment right there.

"Love Me Like That obviously." Rydel answers and cheers are heard throughout the crowd.

"I'm excited for Cali Girls." Rocky answers. Screams are erupted throughout the crowd. Cali Girls in California. Who would've thought?

"Forget About You is mine." Riker answers earning more cheers from the crowd. Ell smiles.

"I'm excited for Loud!" The crowd begins to laugh and cheer, and I can't help but laugh also. We always do Loud, always have, hopefully always will.

Riker watches as the crowd laughs and smiles. A smirk appears to his face as he looks at me. What's he doing?

"How can we get you guys to smile?" Riker asks the fans. No Riker don't. Don't get them involved in this.

"Maybe you'll get some inspiration from the fans?"

Rydel's words echo throughout my brain. Maybe this is what I need.

A whole bunch of fans scream rip of your shirt or kiss me, but one fans response sticks out to me the most.

"Sing me a song!"

I smile to myself. That's what I'm going to do,

I'll write her a song
