I was going to post this a week ago but forgot. Sorry. I'm really glad this is getting such positive reviews. I really hope the efforts They Ruby and the Rockits FANS are doing will bring the show back so we can have more moments to write about!! So how many saw the season finale episode? I wanna hear thoughts!! Jorby enough or could have used more. Satisfying? just make sure to REVIEW the chapter, giving me your thoughts about it and then give me your thoughts about the episode! Also, by chance if anyone is still reading this, or reading it all, I kind of had an idea to do a LWD crossover story with Ruby and the Rockits, and I just wanted to hear feedback on that. Like do you like the idea, or no it would be lame. You can't make a decision unless you have an idea of the plot and lastly, you have suggestions. So let me know..send me messages!!!
Ruby couldn't find the drive to get out of bed. Somehow the weekend had lost its magic, its luster without the promise of a note taped to her locker from her new Secret Admirer. She found herself looking forward to Monday with each passing second.
.Her first letter, along with all her new notes, were resting nicely and out of sight in her night stand drawer. She smiled to herself at the thought of adding more love letters to the pile. Love letters to her. Her stomach started to growl and that was more then enough of a reason to get out of bed. How can she meet the love of her life if she died of hunger in bed.
Ruby walked into the kitchen and saw Jordan and Audie sitting at the table; uncle Patrick was at the stove finishing a fresh batch of pancakes.
"Morning everyone." she said walking towards the fridge to get some orange juice.
"Morning Ruby. Pancakes anyone?" Patrick said, waiving the plate of warm pancakes in the air.
"Of course." Ben said walking in, tossing the mail onto the kitchen table, which slid down and almost knocked over Jordan's orange juice.
"Hey!" he protested. "Watch it you little weirdo." Ben rolled his eyes and walked up to Ruby and handed her a red a rose.
"Oh Ben," Ruby gushed. "That's so sweet. Thank you." she reached forward to give him a hug.
"It's not from me," he said side stepping her. "I found it in the mail box. There's a little tag with your name on it.."
Ruby's heart began to flutter. Could it be from him? Her secret admirer.
"Oh wow." Audie said smiling. "Looks like someone really likes you Ruby." Ruby tried to hide the blush that was no doubt prominent on her face.
"It also looks like he's really cheap." Ben said, sitting down to the table with a plate full of pancakes. "I mean a single red rose? A dozen or more says, I really like you. One rose just says, I don't think you're hideous."
"Oh please," Jordan scoffed. "Since when did you become the Guru of Love?"
"I read." Ben replied before shoving pancake into his mouth.
"I don't approve." Patrick said stepping into the conversation.
"Relax Patrick. It's just flowers." Audie said.
"A flower." Ben corrected, earning him stares from everyone in the kitchen,which he just shrugged off.
"No. I remember being that age. Sending flowers to girls. I know who I sent flowers to and why I sent them."
"Really Patrick?" Audie said, sitting back in her chair and crossing her arms; an annoyed smirk appearing on her. "Please, do enlighten us." she raised her brow and Patrick started to stammer. He retreated back to making pancakes.
"Suddenly I don't feel so very hungry." Ruby said getting up and excusing herself from the kitchen.
She walked towards the coach and sat down.
Losing her appetite wasn't the half of it. If anything she felt like passing out. Honestly her family mixed in with this secret admirer business was mentally exhausting.
"Hey." Jordan said walking in and sitting next to her. "Don't listen to all of them in there." Ruby smiled at him. She enjoyed seeing Jordans sweet and sensitive side, even if it didn't come out that often.
"Trust me, they are just an echo in my brain. I mean really, what does this flower mean?"
"Huh?" Jordan asked, looking at her confused.
"It's a rose Jordan, a rose. It has to mean something."
"Okay." he said, still confused. "Roses are pretty, right?"
"Yeah. They're also red and thorny..And thorny rhymes with horny." Ruby let out a loud gasp "What if he's trying to say I'm closed in, im thorny and that he's horny, or that makes him horny?" horror was written all over her face. She quickly tossed the rose onto the table.
The disgusted look on her face made Jordan want to laugh. He seriously wondered where and how she came up with that.
"I doubt that." he leaned forward and picked up the rose. "What he's probably trying to say is that, he likes you, thinks you're pretty and, " he gave the flower a sniff. "that you smell good." he handed her back the rose and she smiled. He gave her a playful bump with his shoulder and she responded back with one of her own. They both let out a laugh.
"Thanks Jordan. I do feel a little bit better."
"What if it's a girl?" Ben said, standing in the door way of the kitchen and living room.
"What?" Ruby asked.
"Your secret admirer. What if he is actually a she?"
Ruby's felt her insides turn. She hadn't thought about that possibility. Something like that would be flattering, she guessed, but also disappointing since she didn't like girls in that way. Which meant both her and her secret admirer would be broken hearted. She sank back into the coach and let out a whimper.
Jordan glared daggers toward Ben. He was definitely wanting to kill him right now for ruining the moment. He just had to go and open is mouth and fill Ruby's head with more nonsense to worry about. Looks like he would have to do damage control again. But honestly, how was he going to fix this?
ONE more thing before I let you go! This story here probably only has about for more chapters..at the most it will be 10 chappies..but good news is!!! it's going to be a series. there will be 2 one shots that go with it plus another full length story sequel.
