Been debating as to whether I should start this story for a while or not and I thought why not? I know I should hate Ricky right now but it's obvious the reason she's doing it is because Adam is pulling her strings and she's falling for Brax, but I can smell disaster on the horizon. Anyways, based on the goings on in the show, how long will Ricky let Adam control her for?
RICKY'S POV:
Pulling my car into the restaurant car park I grabbed my handbag and made my way inside and up the stairs to Angelo's where Heath Braxton's, an old friend of mine's engagement party was being held…
"Sorry, this is a private function" an unfamiliar face informed me
"It's okay, I know the guy who's getting married" I replied, smiling
"Ricky Sharpe, what're you doing here?" Heath asked, spotting me in the entrance
"How could I not rock up to a Braxton engagement party?" I questioned, reciprocating the hug he gave me
"Ricky. How are you?" Casey inquired, spotting me too
"Casey Braxton, look at you" I proclaimed "I'm good, how're you?"
"Good" he replied, smiling at me as we pulled out of our hug
My eyes scanned the room of familiar and unfamiliar faces and then landed on Brax…
"Hey, Brax, long time, no see" I stated, smiling at him
He reciprocated my smile and I made my way to the bar with Heath to get a drink…
BRAX'S POV:
Ricky approached me as I drained my beer…
"I think we should take a walk" she admitted
I nodded and followed her out of the restaurant and out onto the beach…
"So how did you hear Heath was getting married?" I questioned, breaking the silence
"You hear a lot of things through the grapevine" she informed me "what's up with you?"
"You've not mentioned Adam" I admitted, sighing
"I didn't know I needed to" she replied "he's dead, Brax. It wasn't your fault"
"So why did you rock up after all this time then?" I inquired, raising an eyebrow
"Thought I'd come and catch up for old time's sake. Should I go?" she questioned
"No" I admitted "do you wanna go back to my place?"
"Forward" she chuckled
I rolled my eyes… "I just don't really feel like being in a room full of people making conversation"
"Still the silent and moody type, I see" she stated, chuckling
"Do you want to or not?" I asked, raising an eyebrow
"Why not? As long as you've got plenty of food and beer?" she inquired
I nodded and smiled, her reciprocating the smile as we made our way back to mine…
RICKY'S POV:
"So, beer and a slice of pizza then?" Brax asked as he walked into the kitchen
"I'm not really hungry for pizza anymore" I admitted
"Okay. We've got pasta, or I could make something else?" he suggested, raising an eyebrow
"Brax, you're cleverer than that" I informed him "you know what I want. It just depends whether you're up to the challenge or not?"
Smirking at me he walked towards me and passionately pressed his lips against my own…
For starters, things are going to be very similar to how the relationship started on the show – Ricky being distant etc…
