The story of RAURA
FT R5, Vanessa Marano & other disney actors
CHAPTER 1
Laura POV
I was walking down the hall reading my script for the very first episode of Austin & Ally, a new Disney tv show. I was a few meters from my dressing room when I accidentally bumped into someone. "Oh my gosh I'm so sorry" I apologized. I looked up to see a tall blonde looking at me, we stared into each others eyes. there was a silence between us until he finally spoke, breaking the awkward eye contact " Im sorry, I should of been looking where I was going, I'm just trying to learn these lines". "Oh, lines for what?" I asked curiously. "Oh I'm sorry I should introduce myself, Im Ross Lynch, I'm playing Austin on this new show called Austin & Ally" Ross introduced while extending out his hand. " I can't believe it" I gasped. " Is there something wrong?" he questioned. " No the opposite" I replied. " I'm Laura Marano, I'm playing Ally" I finished while reaching my hand out to shake his hand. " We made small talk for about 5 minutes until I left to go to my dressing room and get ready to meet the rest of the cast.
Ross POV
As Laura slowly stepped past me to go into her dressing room, I caught a breeze of her vanilla smelling perfume. It smelt really nice and vanilla was my favorite scent. I watched her as she walked away to her dressing room. She turned around and smiled when she reached the door. I gave her a friendly smile, turned around and left. I was so hungry so I decided to go get something to eat when suddenly I got called over the loud speaker to go to our script reading room to meet the cast and crew. I sighed and walked to the room. I got to the door of the room and there were already lots of people there. I took a step inside and saw a seat with my name on the table. I walked over and took my seat. I looked at the name on the desk next to me which said Laura Marano, but she hadn't got here yet. I then looked to my right when someone tapped me on the shoulder. It was a tall guy with ginger hair who looked really familiar. He gave me a smile and introduced himself. "Hello My name is Calum Worthy, I think we met at auditions, Ross is it?". Of course, that's why he looked so familiar, he was my partner at the audition when we had to perform a two person short play. " Oh yes I remember you, it's good to see you again, yeh Ross Lynch. Did you get the role of Dez" I ask. He nods his head with a huge grin on his face. " so have you met anyone else in the cast yet?" Calum asks. " I met Laura Marano, the girl playing Ally, but no one else" I answer. Calum responds " oh does she seem nice? Have you seen the girl playing Trish yet?". " she seems really nice and down to earth, but no I havnt seen the girl playing Trish" I answer politely. As Calum and I are talking Laura walks into the room and takes a seat next to me. Calum and Laura introduce themselves to each other then the director bangs his gavel onto the podium and speaks " we are just waiting for Raini Rodriguez who plays Trish, she should be here soon then we will begin". " I whisper to Laura and Calum " she must be getting into character, you know being late and all". Laura and Calum start laughing when we hear a knock on the door. It was a short, Latino girl with long dark curly hair. She came over to us introducing herself and we introduced ourselves as well and then she took a seat next to Laura. The meeting went for about half an hour and we just got to know everyone. When the meeting ended I was talking to Laura and my stomach growled. She paused mid sentence. " your hungry aren't you?" She asked." I was on my way to get something to eat when we got called to the meeting" I gave a slight smile and replied. " I was going to grab something as well, maybe we can go together and get to know each other a bit more" Laura suggested. I agreed and we said our goodbyes and left for the cafeteria.
Raini POV
I said goodbye to Ross & Laura and watched them head out the door, I turned back around to Calum and we started talking. "So are you exited to be on Austin & Ally" Calum asked me. " I'm thrilled, I already know this show is going to be huge" I replied with a huge smile on my face. " me too, I still can barely believe it, out of the thousands of people who auditioned, me, just an average guy from Canada got the role" Dez gratefully smiled.
Laura POV
Ross and I walked down the long hallway. When we got to the door of the cafeteria Ross opened it "after you" he kindly said gesturing me to go inside. I thanked him and walked through the doors. It wasn't very busy, probably because it was 2:57pm and everyone had already eaten. I gazed around the room, looking at the few people there. I noticed one girl. She was off Disney channel and I had seen her before. I walked up to her and politely asked " your Debby Ryan off the suite life on deck". She nodded. " yeh it's nice to meet you err" I cut her off, " Im Laura an this is Ross, we are on a new show called Austin & Ally". " Ohh Austin & Ally, that is shooting right next door to my new show called Jessie, so I guess we will be seeing you a lot" Debby exclaimed. " Debby Ryan please go to the Jessie script reading room" a guy asked over the loud speaker. " we'll that's my cue to leave, it was nice meeting you though Laura and Ross, maybe we can get lunch together sometime" Debby suggested as she walked off emptying her tray in the bin. " wow I can't believe I just met Debby Ryan, I used to love watching her on the suite life on deck" I smiled and Ross nodded. "Anyways we should probably get some food before I perish away to nothing" Ross joked and I giggled. I had a chicken caesar salad and Ross had Pancakes. I looked over at Ross eating his pancakes and it was like he hadn't eaten in... Well ever. He looked totally in love with the pancakes.
Ross POV
These were really good pancakes. Well my mums were better but I could get used to this most days. I felt eyes watching me and I looked up to see Laura staring at me. She started giggling and tried to speak between breaths but she couldn't, she finally spat out " your face" and pointed to my cheek. I grabbed my iphone out of my pocket and looked in the camera. I had maple syrup all over my cheek. We both started laughing until we finally caught our breathe back. We decided to go back to our dressing rooms. I invited Laura into my dressing room to play some songs on guitar and piano and even sing a little. She agreed and went to get her keyboard from her dressing room and a few minutes later knocked on my door. "It's open" I yelled. We played a few songs until it was getting late. "It's getting pretty late, I should be heading home" Laura told. "Yeh I have to get home and practice with my band" I replied. " oh your in a band?" Laura asked. " uhh yeh, my sister, brothers, best friend and I are in a band called R5" I answered. " that's pretty cool, okay I should go, but today has been fun, meeting the whole cast and crew" Laura said. " yeh everyone seems pretty cool, I know we are all going to be great friends, see you tomorrow Laura" I say as she walks out of my dressing room.
Laura POV
I say goodbye to Ross and go to my dressing room to pack up my things and meet my sister in the parking lot. "Hey Vanessa" I say while packing my things into the back seat of the car and then sitting in the front seat. " hey Laura, how was the first day? How was the cast and crew? Did you get to meet anyone Interesting? Who else is there? Anyone I would know?tell me everything." Vanessa bombarded me with questions. I giggled " it was really fun, everyone is so amazing and just so nice. I met Debby Ryan from the suite life on deck, she was so nice and even suggested that Ross and I have lunch with her sometime". "Ooohh who's Ross, your boyfriend" she jokes. "No Nessy, he plays Austin, we had lunch together today" I reply. "OH my gosh, your so stupid, when a guy asks you to lunch he obviously likes you, awww I can't believe this someone has a crush on my little s- " Vanessa starts but I cut her off " Okay firstly no one has a crush on anyone and secondly I asked him to lunch" Vanessa opens her mouth to say something, but I continue " as friends, he was hungry and so was I, plus I thought the chemistry on screen would be better if we got to know each other off screen". Vanessa nodded understanding what I just said. She should be the first person to understand considering she was an actress too and knew how much off screen chemistry is good for on screen chemistry, even if the chemistry was just as friends. On the way home we talked all about my day. When we got home I had dinner, telling my sister and dad about my day then I went to bed because I had to get up at 5am. Yes that's my life now, getting up at 5am on a friday morning and probably most other mornings as well.
CHAPTER 2:
Laura POV
"Beeeeeep beeeeeeeeep beeeee-" I slam my hand onto the snooze button , I was so tired. My alarm went off another three times when I heard "LAAAUUURRRRRAAAAAA, GET OUT OF BED YOU ARE GOING TO BE LATE". I looked at the time 5:19am "CRAP". I quickly jumped out of bed and ran to my closet to see what to wear. "this will have to do" i say while grabbing some Black jeggins a purple singlet top, some plain black canvas high tops and a black and purple hoodie. I then ran into the bathroom. I had a quick shower and got ready. I ran downstairs and decided weather to skip breakfast to save me an extra 10 minutes. "LAAUURRRAA HURRY UP, IM ALREADY IN THE CAR" My sister Vanessa yelled. I decided to skip breakfast, so I grabbed my bag which was already packed from yesterday and went to walk outside when someone stepped right in front of me. " your still doing that acting thing" my dad asks. "Ummm yes" my voice lowers. "It's just a stupid dream Laura, quit while your ahead, don't you realize dreams never come true, especially for a worthless little mutt like you" my dad yells. "I have to go" I run out of the house, well try to at least but he grabs my wrist and pulls me back inside the house " don't walk away from me you rude little mutt, your should be more respectful, I saved your worthless little life". " p please l l let go, your h h hurting me" I stutter. He comes closer to me and shoves me into the couch, trying to rip my shirt off. "Please no, don't do this" I beg. At that moment Vanessa walks through the door "Laura hurry up I already told you we are goi-" she stops mid sentence looking at the tears streaming down my face. "What happened Laura" she asked concerned. By this time my so called dad left the room because he heard someone coming in the door, he says that if I ever told anyone he would kill me. "Ohh umm well I jus-" Vanessa cut me off. " you can explain in the car, we have to go" Vanessa grabs my wrist and drags me out. On the car ride to the studio I just sat there quietly looking out the window. I wanted to cry, especially now because Vanessa grabbed my wrist right where my dad left the bruise and it is aching. "Okay we are here" Vanessa states pulling into the parking lot. I pull my sleeve down to cover the bruise, and go to thank her for taking me to the studio. " thank you for saving me Vanessa" I smiled without realizing what I actually said. "Saving you" Vanessa questioned. "Oh I meant taking. I got mixed up between taking and umm saving money for the bus ride I would of had to take" I awkwardly laugh, hoping she bought it and walk into the studio.
Calum POV
I walk into the studio and see that I'm the first one here so I go and have a coffee. I was nearly done when Ross came over and sat at the table with me. "Hey Calum, how's it goin?" Ross greeted. "Oh hey Ross, it's going good, what could be better, I'm living my dream. What about you?" I ask. "Yeh it's good, look you don't have to if you don't want to but my family want to get to know you, Raini and Laura, so if you wanted you can come over for dinner?" He suggested. "Yeh id like that" I reply. "Okay great" He cheered.
Laura POV
I walk through the hallway where all the dressing rooms are when I hear someone talking in Ross's dressing room. I knock gently on the door to see him. "Come in" I hear an unfamiliar voice say. I slowly open the door an see a whole bunch of people sitting on his couch. I look at them confused. I open my mouth to speak when a girl who is taller then me with blonde hair runs over to me. " Hello, you must be Laura" she says while pulling me in for a hug. I nod. When we pull out of the hug the door opens. "Ross, you're back" they all say simultaneously. I giggle and everyone soon follows. I look at Ross confused. " Heey Laura, how are you" he asks. "I'm good, you" I lie. i was actually terrible, i had a huge bruise on my wrist and nearly got raped as well. "yeh I'm great" he replies. I think he finally caught on to how confused I was because he speaks. " So Laura, I see you met my family" "well kinda" I blush. " okay well these are my brothers, Riker, Rocky and Ryland, this is my beautiful sister Rydel, my best friend Ratliff, my awesome dad Mark and my amazing mum Stormie" he introduced. Everyone waved at me and I smile back. Something about seeing his happy family made me want to fall down to my knees and break down crying, but I didn't, I couldn't face all those questions. " I should probably go" I say while rushing out the door. "Oh wait I need to ask you something" he says while grabbing my wrist and turning me around to face his family. " okay so my wonderful family and I want to invite you, Raini and Calum over for dinner tonight" he asks me still holding into my bruised wrist. His whole family is looking at me waiting for me to reply. " um don't k know" I stutter a little from the pain. He gives me puppy dog eyes. " oh please Laura" he begs. I can tell he won't let me go until I say yes, so before I even have time to think I open my mouth "okay ill be there". "Awesome" he smiles, letting go of my wrist. I sigh from being finally free of that pain. " it was nice meeting everyone, I will see you tonight" I say while heading out the door holding onto my wrist in pain.
CHAPTER 3:
Laura POV
When I walk out of Ross's dressing room I run straight into mine, and jump on the lounge with my head down and start quietly sobbing.
Ross POV
I walk out of my dressing room to try and find Raini to invite her to dinner tonight. As I walk down the hall I hear someone crying. I hear it getting louder and louder when I realize it's coming from Laura's dressing room. I lightly knock on the door and hear the crying stop. "Laura are you alright" I ask. "Yeh I'm fine" she responds. "Can I come in" I ask. "Ummm okay" she replies after a couple of seconds of silence. I walk in to find her face down on the couch. I walk over and sit next to her, moving he legs so there is room, then placing them on my lap. "Laura, what happened?" I ask concerned. She shrugs still head down. I start rubbing her back to try and calm her down. "You can trust me Laura, I know we only just met, but if you ever need to talk to me about anything, no matter what time it is, ill always be here" I smile. She finally sits up, her face stained with tears and make up smudged all over her face. "Ross" she sniffs. "Yes Laura" I whisper. "I really want to tell you, but I can't, he will kill me" she struggles. "Who will kill you, did someone hurt you?" I yell getting slightly annoyed. "I I I" she stutters. I see this is painful for her so I just give her a big hug, and she hugs me back. "Thank you Ross" she thanked. "Anytime" I smile. She buries her head into my shoulder and I wrap my arm around her and she slowly fell asleep and eventually I fall asleep too.
Raini POV
"Laura Marano and Ross Lynch to stage 3" some guy announced over the loud speaker. "Where are they"? Calum asked me. " I really don't know, maybe we should go look for them"? I suggest. Calum nodded and we walked out the door. First we looked in the cafeteria and they wernt there. I heard talking in Ross's dressing room, so I assumed it was them. I knocked and walked in straight away without waiting for an answer. "We have been waiting for y-" I stopped realizing it wasn't Ross or Laura. "Hello, we are Ross's family, I'm Ross's mum, Stormie" Stormie introduced. "Oh hello, I'm Calum and this is Raini" calum replied. "we are looking for Ross & Laura, they never showed up to rehearsal. Do you know where they are" I asked. "Wow Ross works fast" Riker smirked. "He only just met her" Ratliff and Rocky said at the same time. "Awww they are probably alone, they are so in love, it's so adorable, my little brother has a girlfriend" Rydel squealed. "Sorry guys that's well Rydel for you, as for the others they are jumping to conclusions" Mark explained. "So are you Ross's brothers and sister"? I ask. They all introduce themselves. "Okay so Rydel, Riker, Rocky, Ryland, Ratliff, Stormie and Mark" Calum questions. "Yes that's right" Rydel replies. "Okay well we are going to look for Ross and Laura" I say. "I'll help you look" Rydel offered. "Okay cool" Calum says. We all say goodbye and walk out the room.
Rydel POV
"Oh before I forget, would you like to come over tonight for dinner Raini"? I ask. "Laura and I are going as well" Calum adds. "Sure, sounds fun" Raini smiled. " okay, I'll go look in Laura's dressing room, Calum you look in the script reading room and Raini you look outside, then we will meet back at Ross's dressing room" I plan. They all agree and we walk off in opposite directions. "Ross, Laura, you in there"? I knock quite loud so I know they will hear me if they are in there. There was no reply, so I slowly opened the door. "Awwwww" I smile at Ross and Laura who were asleep together on the lounge. Laura had her head on his shoulder and he had his arm around her. I'm pretty sure they heard me because they slowly woke up, stretching their arms. "You two look cozy" I joke. Both Ross and Laura start blushing and Ross quickly moves his arm from around her and Laura moves away from him. "You guys are the cutest" I giggle. "We must of fell asleep" Laura blushed. "Umm yeh" Ross agreed. I could tell it was awkward for them, so instead of teasing them like I normally would, I just decided to tell them the reason I came looking for them. " you are wanted on set, they called you about 5 times and Raini & Calum are out looking for you" I told them. " crap, we fell asleep and didn't hear the announcement, we should go Laura" Ross said not facing me and rushed out of the room with Laura behind him. I'm pretty sure that they were still embarrassed about the way I caught them. When they left I couldn't help but smile and jump around the room. They were so cute together, I have never seen my baby brother so close to a girl before. I then left the room and went back to Ross's dressing room to meet Raini and Calum. they were standing outside the door. I decided not to tell them about how I found them because they were already embarrassed enough and didn't need the whole world knowing. Raini and Calum left to go to rehearse and I went back into Ross's dressing room to where the rest of my family was.
Ross POV
Laura and I walked to stage 3 without saying a word. I think we were both embarrassed and a little shocked. I have to be honest, it felt kind of nice to be able to comfort her like that. When Rydel woke us up I didn't even realize Laura was there. I thought I was at home in my own bed. When I realized my arm was around Laura, I started getting butterflies in my stomach. I don't like Laura though, we are just friends. I think it was just, well I don't know why I got butterflies, but I deffinatly don't like Laura in that way, I can't like her in that way. "Soooo" I finally spoke. "Sooo" she repeated. " look Laura, I don't want this to be awkward, there isnt anything to be awkward about. I was just comforting you after" I paused remembering the tears streaming down her face. I softened my tone. "What did happen before"? I ask. I see her look down. "I was just tired so I fell asleep" she knew exactly what I meant but tried to change the subject. "You know I don't mean about that. Why were you crying"? I ask again. "Look I can't tell you Ross, I I I just can't" she stutters. I see her quickly look down at her wrist and pull her sleeve down quickly. "Did something happen to your wrist" I ask. "N no" she stutters. "Laura you can trust me, please show me your wrist, wait" I paused. "Do you cut your wrist" I continue. "No, just drop it Ross, please" she raises her voice. I take a step closer to her and slowly grab her hand and turn it around to see her wrist. I gasp. "Laura what happened? Did someone hurt you?" I ask seriously. "I I I just slammed my hand in the door" she lies. "Laura, you and I both know that didn't happen. Look I won't force you to tell me, but if you want to you can" I give her a warming smile. She sighs "I I can't, I'm sorry". "That's okay Laur, whenever you are ready ill be here to talk " I smile and we both walk onto set.
CHAPTER 4:
Laura POV
I really want to tell Ross, I can't though, my dad said if I told anyone he would kill me and not to mention what he would do to Ross. I can't put him in danger like that. Ill be fine though, I mean I should barely see him now that I am at set most of the day. My thoughts got interrupted "where were you guys, Rydel said you were running lines in Laura's dressing room and didn't hear the announcements" Raini said. I saw Ross give a thankful sigh, I'm assuming that it was that Rydel didn't tell them what actually happened. I really had to thank her later for not saying anything, that would be so awkward if anyone found out. We rehearsed for a couple of hours and then Raini, Calum, Ross and I went to lunch together. "So what do you guys want to do tonight after dinner" Ross asked. " we could watch a movie" Calum suggested. We all agreed. "What movie" Raini asked.
"Romeo and Juliet" Ross smiles. We all look at him. "What you never seen a guy with Romeo and Juliet as his favorite movie?" He fake gasps. We all laugh. "I'm good with watching Romeo and Juliet" I say and everyone agrees. " so what time do we meet at your house?" I ask Ross. "We'll it's 2:11pm right now and we have about 2 hours of rehearsal left, so around 5:30, so everyone can go home and rest for a bit or have a shower and change clothes?" He replies. We all nod, finish lunch and go back to set. We say goodbye to each other and I walk out into the parking lot to Vanessa's car. "Hey Vanessa" I say while getting in the car. "Hey Laura, so I was thinking girls night out tonight? Chick flicks, popcorn, makeovers, boy talk. What do you say"? She asks. "Sorry Vanessa, not tonight. Ross and his family invited Raini, Calum and I over for dinner an then a movie" I apologize. "That's okay, another night" she asks. "Definitely " I respond. She kind of looked a bit sad that we couldn't hang out tonight. "Hey Nessy, how about I see if you can come with me tonight" I offer. "Naah, I don't want you to have your big sister looking over your shoulder the whole night, you go have fun" she smiles. "You sure" I say. She nods. When I get home I run straight upstairs to my room because Vanessa had to go get petrol and I was alone in the house with my dad, I'm pretty sure he was there anyway. I was looking through my closet to find something to wear. I didn't have a clue what anyone else was wearing and I didn't want to be too fancy or too simple. I decided to ring Rydel to ask her what I should wear. Thankfully she gave me her number today.
ON THE PHONE:
Laura:normal Rydel:Bold
Hey Rydel, it's Laura
Hey Laura, what's up
Um I was wondering what I should wear tonight?
Well I'm just wearing a white long sleeve shirt that says R5 on it in pink writing that's a bit baggy and some some ripped jeans and my pink tutu skirt
Okay, so ill just wear some long tights and a shirt I suppose
Sounds good
Okay thank you and I should probably go get ready
Okay see ya Laur
Wait Rydel, you still there?
Yeh Laur
Thank you for not telling Raini and Calum about what happened today, even though it was nothing I think everyone will see it as more then it was
That's okay Laur, I know what you mean. I get it all the time with Ratliff, I do as little as putt my arm on his shoulder for a photoshoot and our fans go wild saying we are getting married.
Haha Okay see ya soon Rydel
See you Laur
OFF THE PHONE
We hang up and I go into my closet and grab some black tights and a white and grey ombre shirt. I have a quick shower and then get ready. I don't put on much make up, only some lip gloss. I put on some black canvas high tops and a black leather 3/4 jacket. I go into the kitchen and grab a bag of chips and bottle of soft drink. I then head back up to my room and grab a handbag. I put my flip phone in and some lip gloss. My dad then came barging into my room. "Where's Vanessa" he asked. "She's in her room" I lied. When he walked out of my room to go into Vanessa's room I grabbed my bag and ran out the front to wait for Vanessa to get back from the petrol station. She finally turned up and I got in and told her the address. I had the directions written down because we weren't sure where to go. It took us just under 10 minutes to get there. We pulled up out the front and Rydel and Riker were standing there. "LAURRAAA" Rydel yelled while running up to the car. "Hey Rydel" I reply. "Tonight is going to be so fun, I barely ever hang out with girls because I'm so busy with the band and have 4 brothers and Ratliff who are normally the only ones here" She smiles. "Hey Laura, is this your sister" Riker asks. "Yeh this is my sister Vanessa and Vanessa this is Riker and Rydel" I introduce. "It's nice to meet you" Vanessa smiles.
Riker POV
Wow, Vanessa is so GORGOUS. I nearly lost my cool around her, she is the only girl I've ever been nervous around, I think I might have a crush on her. Love at first sight. Her smile, her eyes, her... Well everything. "So Vanessa, you should stay" I suggest. I see her look at Laura to see if its okay. "Yes you should definitely stay" Laura says. "Umm sure why not" she replies. I couldn't help but let out a small smile. This was going to be a great night.
CHAPTER 5:
Laura POV
We all walk into the house and Stormie and Mark welcome us. "hey Stormie and Mark, i bought some chips and soft drink" i say handing them the stuff. "oh thanks darling" she thanks and takes the things and hugs me. Rydel then grabs my hand and pulls me into the lounge room where Ross, Rocky, Ratliff and Ryland were playing guitar hero on the Xbox. "Hey Laura" Ross smiles. They pause the game and Ross comes over and gives me a hug. I hug him back, feeling all the eyes staring at us. "Whaaat" Ross also notices the eyes. They all giggle and we sit on the lounge. The order went Riker, Vanessa, me and Ross on one lounge and Rocky, Ryland and Ratliff were on the other lounge. "Heey, there's no room for me" Rydel fake sighs. Before I knew it Ross grabbed me by the waist and pulled me into his lap. "There you go Del" Ross smiles. "Thank you Ross" she thanked. I was still shocked with what Ross just did when I felt someone right next to my ear. "I'm sorry Laura, if this is uncomfortable ill get up and sit in the floor" Ross whispered. "It's okay Ross, it's a little awkward but that's only because everyone is staring at us" I reply. He smiles. "You two look so cute together" Rydel whispers in my ear. I just glare at her, but end up laughing.
Ross POV
"Okay Ross where is the disc for Romeo & Juliet" Riker asks. "Why are you asking me" I question. "Because you're the one that sits there watching it all day" Rocky interrupts. "True, ill go get it" I say. I pick Laura up bridal style and carry her into my room. She starts laughing and kicking her legs, telling me to put her down because I was running. "No way" I laugh. When I reach my room I throw her on my bed, but she grabs onto my neck and I fall down on top of her. I put my hands out while I fall so they stop me from hurting her. We stare into each others eyes without speaking. She looks so beautiful. I find myself slowly leaning in. "Ahem" Rydel coughs. Laura and I couldn't spit any words out. I was so embarrassed. I nearly kissed Laura, and she didn't stop me. I'm glad we didn't kiss, it would of been too awkward if we did. I quickly got off Laura and I could see her face turn bright red. "I have to go" Laura races out the door. I sit on the bed and rest my head in my hands. "Why did I do that, I'm so stupid" I finally choke out. "It's okay Rossy" Rydel comforts. She walks over to my bed and sits next to me and rubs my back. I look up at her to see her smiling. "Why are you smiling"? I ask. "Oh nothing, just me being right" she smiles. "Right about what?" I ask, now wishing I didn't. "About my baby brother having a crush on a certain co star" she replies. "I don't have a crush on Laura" I deny. " oh come on Ross, you wouldn't have nearly kissed her if you didn't have some feelings towards her" Rydel said. "I DON'T LIKE HER" I yell while walking out the door, grabbing the Romeo & Juliet disc on my way out.
Rydel POV
I can't believe my baby brother nearly kissed Laura. I don't know why I stopped them, but I couldn't let him kiss her. I mean, I wanted them to, but I knew he would regret it. I think they make the cutest couple. I walk out of Ross' room and head downstairs. I saw that Raini & Calum have gotten here now. I also notice Laura and Ross sitting apart and not looking at each other. Poor things, they must be so embarrassed. I go and sit next to Ross on the floor. It now goes Riker, Vanessa, Laura and Raini on one lounge and Rocky, Ratliff and Ryland on the other lounge. Ross is sitting on the floor next to Calum and I. Ross puts the disc in the television and sets it up for us to watch after dinner. "GUYS DINNERS READY" Mark yells out. "COMING" we all yell at the same time. We all walk into the kitchen except I grab Ross and Laura's arm and pull them into my room. "What are you doing Rydel" Ross asks me. Laura just stares at the floor. "You guys have to talk" I say. "There isn't anything to talk about" Ross whisper yells.
Ross POV
Rydel and I argue for about half a minute when Laura finally speaks up. "Ross, I think Rydel is right, we should talk about this, otherwise we will never get over this" Laura speaks. I nod "okay Laura, we will talk" I say. I then face Rydel "alone" I finish. "Okay fine I'm going" Rydel frowns. Rydel leaves the room and Laura and I go and sit on the bed. "Look Laura, I don't want this to be awkward between us" I start. "Either do I Ross" Laura says. "I'm sorry, I just got carried away in the moment, it wasn't anything else" I lie. Laura smiles "same, I'm glad we can get over this. We should probably go to eat before everyone starts asking questions". I nod and we walk to the kitchen. Thankfully everyone is still getting food, so they didn't notice we were gone.
Ratliff POV
I can't help but stare at Rydel. I have always had a major crush on her since I was little. We were great friends, but I can't see anyone as beautiful and smart as her dating someone as crazy as me. I'm surprised no one has noticed me staring yet, it's been going on for about 3 years where I just find myself staring at her and sometimes I start drooling. " Ratliff, Ratliff," Riker starts waving his hand in front of my eyes. I jump. "Oh hey Riker, what's up"? I ask. "You like Delly, don't you"? He asks. I sigh, they had to find out eventually. "Welllll, okay yes fine, I can't help it, I've tried to ignore it but I can't, she's just so perfect" I smile dreamily. "Dude, you have to ask her out" Riker whispers. "WHAT" I yell. Everyone looks at me. "A lovely meal" I add. "Nice save bro" Riker smirks. I turn back to Riker. "I cant ask her out, a girl that beautiful and smart will never date a crazy guy like me. she will say no and then it will ruin our friendship" I frown. "But if you don't say anything, this will just bottle up inside of you, always wondering what she would of said. You can't keep this to yourself, it will kill you inside. You need to tell her" Riker smiles. "Fine, ill talk to her tomorrow" I say. "You have to do it tonight, leave it to me, ill get you two alone" Riker smirks. I don't know what he had planned but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it.
Laura POV
We finish dinner and go into the lounge room to watch Romeo & Juliet. Rocky and Ryland go and get Bean bags and blankets meanwhile Riker and Rydel go and get some snacks and drinks. They come back with 4 bowls of popcorn, one with melted chocolate over it, one with M&M's and Maltesers and two with just butter & some soft drink. We all get comfortable and then Riker speaks "hey Ratliff, how about you and Del go to McDonald's and grab some ice cream sundaes"? He asks. Rydel nods and Ratliff follows her out the door.
I DO NOT OWN R5, AUSTIN AND ALLY OR ANY OTHER FAMILIAR REFERENCES. I ONLY OWN THE STORYLINE AND AND A FEW UNRECOGNIZABLE CHARACTERS.
SO MY EARLIER CHAPTERS RAN OUT OF LIFE SO IM REUPLOADING THEM. IM GOING TO DO ABOUT 5 CHAPTERS IN EACH BECAUSE IT IS ALOT EASIER AND QUICKER FOR ME TO UPLOAD IT THIS WAY.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS STORY. PLEASE REVIEW, OR EVEN JUST READING IT IS GOOD. I LOVE YOU ALL, THANK YOU
