No More Secrets

“Joining us today is the band R5 who I’m sure many of you know and love.”  The interviewer through the T.V. states,  “We’ve asked the fans to send in some questions for you guys.  Are you ready?”

The three blondies and two brunettes, who are seated on a leather couch and chair, answer.  “Yeah.  Ask away.”

“Alright so the first question is; how was your summer tour in Europe?”

The youngest blond speaks up automatically, “Awesome!  It was an incredible experience to go and tour over seas for the first time.  I can’t wait until we have the chance to go back.”

Rydel, the first boys sister, includes her input on the subject as well.  “Yeah, like Ross said the experience was great.  We meet so many amazing fans who are very supportive and I, we, couldn’t have asked for a more perfect time.”

“It sure sounds like a lot of fun.  Another question we received is; when do you expect your next CD to be released?”

“Weeell…” The boy with the long hair who goes by the name Rocky starts, “We we’re thinking maybe by the end of the year.  Just in time to be wrapped and put under the Christmas tree.”  He winks and several chuckles vibrated through the studio.

“That’s great guys.  This Christmas be expecting new music from the raising band R5.  So my last question, which has been asked many many times is; are any of you dating?  All the girls out there are holding their breath as we speak.”

“Haha, I’m single.”  Rocky answers, “So is this guy which even I find surprising.”  Rocky places a hand to his younger brother Ross’ shoulder. 

“What can I say?” Ross shrugs smirk spreading across his lips.  For as many girls that throw themselves at him you’d expect one to catch his eye.  The attention is turned over to the next to speak.

“I’m actually dating someone.”  The drummer Ellington, or Ratliff depending on who you are, cuts in.  “I love you Kelly!”  He points to the camera eliciting many ‘awes’ from those around him. 

“What about you Rydel?  Surely there’s a lucky man out there.”  The interviewer looks at the blonde girl.

“No.”  A slight disappointed tone rests in her voice as she shakes her head blonde hair swaying. 

“And we plan to keep it that way too.” Her brothers add.  “If someone wants to date our sister that have to go though us first.” 

“Yeah.”  Ratliff says even though he isn’t technically blood.

The interviewer smiles, “Looks like you have very protective brothers.”

“You guys be quiet.  One day you won’t be able to stop me.”  She crosses her arms smiling after failing to act serious.

“I guess that’s everyone.  Wait, Riker, you’ve been very quiet.  Is there a special lady we should know about?”  The interviewer’s eyebrows raise grin playing on his lips. 

All of Riker’s siblings including Ratliff lean in a strange expression taking over all of their faces.  As if they know something everyone else doesn’t.  A long pause goes by before he answers, “Um, actually I’m… single.  Yeah, no girlfriend here.”

“Well you heard it here first.  The Lynchs are single so watch out.  Are time is up now, but be sure and check out all of this young bands music and concert dates.  See you next time.” 

“Bye!”  Everyone waves to the camera while the ending credits flash across the screen then goes black.

You sit back T.V. remote in hand a bit disappointed.  You though he was going to tell this time.  Of course you were wrong.
