Next chapter! I hope you all enjoy it!


Riley strutted through the lobby of the Palm Woods with a bag of booze in one hand and her purse in the other. Her long day at work had stressed her to no end and her fake ID served its justice at the store. She ached to kick off her heels and pour herself a glass of wine while indulging in a long bubble bath. The thought was nice but she had an even better plan.

It was Friday evening and she knew Camille and the guys would be dying to get shit faced just like she did, so her goal was to find at least one of them and spread the word. The weekend was simply a blessing. No work for two days. Relaxation was just about the cure for anything for Riley.

Her wedges softly clunked on the ground as she made her way to the pool area, smiling as she caught a glimpse of her friends all in one place. For once she wouldn't have to worry about repeating herself to all of them.

She had been in L.A. for almost a week now and at the Palmwoods for a mere three days. Riley had gotten to know all the guys pretty well and felt more comfortable around them. She found herself closer to Carlos mentally though. He was just so casual, outgoing, sweet, and hilarious and Riley found it comforting. Within three days, she considered him to be her new best friend.

"Well, hey, stranger!" Camille Roberts, Riley's best friend, greeted her as she approached the group. Riley felt the attention of all eyes on her. "How was work?"

Riley groaned as she placed her bag of goodies on the table and popped a squat on Carlos' leg. It was the closet seat and her legs were about to give out. "It was miserable. Gustavo's phone was ringing off the hook today thanks to somebody's public display of affection." She eyed Camille and Logan as they snickered.

Riley wasn't really scolding Camille and Logan. She thought they were the cutest couple. She just hated it when Gustavo and Kelly got stressed out over the media, and over the past few days Riley noticed this happened a lot with the boys. It meant Riley had to be on her best behavior or else one of them would crack and fire her. She loved her new job.

"Was Gustavo mad?" Logan asked, suddenly concerned.

"Oh, he was livid." Riley chuckled, looking down at Carlos and noticing his helmet loosely in place. "But he got over it when Kelly gave him the news that your single hit the top 10 on iTunes!" She grinned at them all as they began freaking out.

"Why didn't you start off with that?" James demanded, grabbing his phone and immediately checking to make sure she wasn't joking.

"Guys, this is awesome!" Carlos leaned across the table and high fived Kendall.

"We need to celebrate! It's Friday and our single is a hit!" Kendall suggested the party, but Riley was already steps ahead.

"I've got plenty of beer in this bag and enough tequila to satisfy my thirst. Way ahead of you, buddy." Riley sent a wink Kendall's way and stood up from Carlos' lap. "I'm going to head up to my apartment, so y'all just come on up at around 9 or so."

"But it's only 6?" James noted, "What are we gonna do for 3 hours?"

Riley shrugged, "I don't know about you guys, but I am going to enjoy a long bubble bath." She glanced at Kendall, watching his eyes light up. "Go get some food or something. I don't think I have enough to feed any bears." She winked down at Carlos, making him chuckle. Three days and she already knew he was the one that ate the most.

"I guess I could go get a shower, too. We've been swimming." James said, running a hand through his damp hair.

"Well there ya go. Go get ready. And go get some food. I'm starving," she pulled her wallet out of her purse and started opening it. "Here, go get some Chinese or something."

All four guys started shouting at her, "No!" "Put your wallet up!" "You're not paying for food!" "What are you doing?"

"Holy shit, guys! Geeze!" Riley freaked out, shoving her wallet in her purse and giving Camille a wide eyed look. "What is wrong with you guys?"

"We never ever let a girl buy food. It's totally against guy code." Kendall looked at Riley with bug eyes, still shocked that she was even pulling her wallet out. "So just go on with your bath and let us take care of everything else."

She sent them all soft smiles, "Well thanks guys. I'll see y'all later." She was about to turn when she remembered Camille, "Oh, Cammy, you can come up whenever. We can get ready together."

Camille shot Riley a grin, "Sure thing! I'll be up in an hour."

"Alright, I'll just leave the door unlocked." Riley smiled at her, then turned her gaze to Kendall and sent him a smirk before walking passed the pool and in to the lobby.

Kendall's eyes didn't turn from her until she was completely gone. When he turned back to the guys, they were all staring at him. "What?"

"Dude, you're practically drooling right now. Here's a napkin," Logan tossed Kendall a napkin and chuckled when he just gave him the middle finger.

"So, Camille, what are my chances of hooking up with Riley tonight?" Kendall bluntly asked his friends girlfriend.

"I'd say there's a 75% chance of that happening." Camille stated, sipping her lemonade.

"Wait-what?!" Kendall, Logan, James, and Carlos all asked, stunned by the percentage Camille said.

She laughed at them, "Why are you all so shocked?"

Carlos answered first, "She's been here for three days!"

"So?" Camille retorted, grinning at the conversation.

"I just-I didn't think Riley was one of those girls." Carlos frowned and then sighed. "Man! I thought I was finally gonna have like a really awesome best girl friend. Not a girlfriend but just a friend who was a girl and was awesome."

"Carlos, you can still be Riley's friend like that. I'm just answering Kendall's question honestly."

"Well, what makes it up to 75%? Why not just 50 or like, 55?" James questioned, feeling a bit offended that his chance would be lower than Kendall's.

Camille shrugged, "I don't know. I just see it happening over anyone else's. Plus, I think she's taken a liking to you."

"Well then, I guess I've obviously taken a liking to her too." Kendall smirked, leaning back in his lounge chair.

"Do you think we can invite the Jennifer's then so me and Carlos won't be all alone?" James asked, shooting Camille his puppy dog eyes.

"Oh, yeah! Please, Camille?" Carlos begged, showing off his puppy dog eyes too, making them even bigger than James'.

Camille looked back and forth between James and Carlos and felt her heart tugging at their eyes. "Alright! Alright! I'm sure Riley won't mind. Yes! Just stop looking at me like that!"

James and Carlos high fived across the table and Logan leaned in to Camille's ear, "You are so weak."


"One, two, three!" Eight teens yelled right before tossing their second shots of tequila. They were all one beer, two vodka shots, and two tequila shots in and had been at it for almost an hour. Needless to say, if they weren't drunk, they were almost there.

"Oh, god!" Camille shrieked. "I hate tequila!" She sucked her lime really hard, hoping the sour taste would eliminate the bitterness of the alcohol.

"After all these years, I'm pretty sure it's still my favorite." Riley giggled, opening her fridge and grabbing one more beer. "Beer, anyone?" She asked, drunkenly playing the part of lovely hostess.

"Me!" Kendall shouted from his seat at the counter.

"Me, too!" Carlos stated, sitting next to Kendall.

"I'll take one more." James tried his hardest to not stumble as he walked from the couch to the fridge.

"One for you," She handed one to James, "One for youuu," she placed one on the counter in front of Carlos and grinned at him, "Annddd one for you!" She held on to the bottle in front of Kendall's face and when he reached out to take it, he let his fingers brush against hers and grinned back.

"Carlos, come dance with us!" Brunette Jennifer yelled at the Latino as she swayed back and forth behind James. The Curly Jennifer grinded on his front side and Carlos stood up to join the lonely brunette. Blonde Jennifer had an audition in the morning and didn't want to be hungover, so that made the party guests an even number.

Riley looked around for Camille and Logan and spotted them on the balcony, full on macking with each other. She giggled and turned her eyes somewhere else, giving them privacy. She felt eyes on her and looked up at Kendall to find him staring at her, a smile on his own face. "Can I help you?"

He shook his head no, "I'm just staring. I stare when I'm drunk." They both giggled for no reason and Riley grabbed two shot glasses and the tequila bottle and walked around the counter to sit beside him. "We doing another shot?"

"Yes! Because tequila is my favorite and I want some more." Riley grinned, carefully pouring the same amount in to both glasses.

"All right then." Kendall laughed at her, and took his shot from her dainty hand and looked right in to her eyes. "To tonight!"

"To tonight!" She clinked her glass to his and then put the glass to her mouth, swallowing the brown liquid back and making a face. "The limes! I forgot the limes!"

"Oh, god! Lime! Lime! Lime!" Kendall playfully shouted, standing up with Riley, both of them searching for two limes. They found them and immediately thanked the sour fruit for hiding the bitter taste of tequila.

Riley started laughing at the two of them and accidentally knocked in to Kendall. They were both still laughing as his hands held on to her arms. "Hey! Let's go dance!"

Kendall didn't think he could ever say no this brown haired beauty and let her drag her in to the makeshift dancefloor known as her living room. She pulled him right against her back and started moving her hips with the music. His thoughts stopped and he didn't know what to do. Kendall slowly let his body move with Riley's and lightly placed his hands on her hips.

I am going to fall in love with this girl.

Thirty minutes later, Kendall and Riley found themselves out on her balcony with Camille and Logan. Both girls were sitting on the boys laps, and they were all just laughing and talking.

"What are James and Carlos doing?" Camille asked, trying to turn in Logan's lap to see the two boys, but failed miserably.

Riley laughed and easily managed to turn and see the boys passed out on her two couches. The Jennifer's were nowhere in sight. "They're sleeping. I don't see the Jennifer's."

"They left about ten minutes ago," Kendall stated, smiling up at Riley as she looked down at him.

"Figures they would. Do they ever stay for anything? I'm pretty sure they just stay long enough to get free booze and then bounce." Logan rolled his eyes, looking over at Kendall for his input.

He nodded in agreement, "Next time we're telling those two 'no' when they ask if they can invite them."

Camille yawned, moving her head down to Logan's shoulder. "I'm getting so sleepy."

Riley giggled at her best friend. She turned in to a giggler when she was drunk. "You can sleep in my guest room tonight, Cammy. You too Logie!" Logan groaned at the nickname and cursed Camille for sharing it with Riley.

"We'll probably take you up on that now. This one's about to pass out." Logan chuckled at his girlfriend as he watched her eyes drift off.

"Am not," she whispered, totally falling asleep.

"All right, let's go, pretty lady." Logan stood up, holding Camille carefully and carrying her inside.

Kendall and Riley were quiet for a minute, just listening to the cars driving and low music still playing from the living room. Riley couldn't help but slide down in Kendall's lap so that her head could rest on his shoulder now. He didn't waste a second wrapping his arm around her waist and letting his fingers rest on her exposed thigh.

"So where do I get to sleep?" Kendall quizzed, hoping she would say with her.

Riley didn't bother hesitating. She sat up from his shoulder and smiled down at him, "With me."

She moved her hand to touch his forearms and let them slowly move up his biceps, tracing his collar bone, and then lingering softly on his neck. Her touch was almost invisible. Kendall could barely feel her fingers on his neck, but he knew they were there. It was taking everything he had not to pull her lips down against his.

Riley giggled again, and gazed down at Kendall's mouth. His lips were so perfect and Riley just knew they would be so soft when she actually got to kiss him. She moved her hand up his neck, softly caressing his jawline and slowly bringing her hand right under his chin. Her thumb moved to graze his bottom lip as he looked right up in to her eyes.

He watched her eyes stare at his lips and he glanced down at hers. He wanted them to be on his so badly and almost pulled her down so he could get a taste of her. Kendall's hand slowly moved up her back, enjoying the feel of her skin at the open spot thanks to her tank top. His fingers moved up her neck and gently tugged the hair at the nape.

Riley briefly closed her eyes at the tug, but opened them just as fast as she closed them. She moved her hand back down to his neck and let it sit there as she felt him pull her head down. Their eyes locked and they knew what was about to happen.

Kendall pulled her lips down to his until they were only centimeters apart. It was her go. He pulled her down far enough to shoot the hoop and now he was waiting for her to score. The ball was in her court.

Riley watched his tongue sneak out briefly and wet his lips, and she almost groaned at the sight. She knew he was waiting for her to make her move. Her thumb moved back and forth for a second on his neck before she slowly leaned down, closing her eyes on the way, and placed the softest kiss on Kendall's lips.

He was in heaven. He was sure of it. The second her lips touched his, he was soaring through the sky and he always thought the 'seeing fireworks' when you kiss someone was a myth, but holy shit, he was seeing fireworks.

He gripped her head, pulling her even closer than before and kissed the fucked out of this girl. As soon as he felt her tongue on his lips, asking for more, he lost it. He opened his mouth and let her tongue in and soon enough his was fighting back. It only lasted for what seemed like a minute, he knew it was really 5 minutes.

Riley pulled back, breathing heavy, "Bedroom?" She asked, searching his eyes and knowing the answer. "Please?"

Riley was practically begging him to not say no and Kendall knew it right then and there that he was in trouble. He watched her stand up and stood up as well, "Lead the way, beautiful."

She reached for his hand and walked her way through the living room, finding her room and pulling him inside. She didn't bother locking it because frankly, she didn't care. As soon as they were behind the closed door, Kendall put one hand on her neck and the other on her waist and pushed her against the door. His lips found hers and they were at it again. Tongues were pressing against one another, teeth were nibbling on lips and hands were grabbing at every inch of skin.

Kendall moved his lips to her neck and gently sucked the skin right below her ear. Riley gripped her eyes shut from the sensations and finally let the moan she had been fighting escape her mouth, "Kendall."

He was pretty sure he was exploding as soon as his name left her lips. He couldn't take it anymore and moved his lips back to hers. There was no way he couldn't get enough of her. His hands moved to the hem line of her tank top and he started pushing it up. They pulled apart long enough to remove her top and Kendall was instantly fascinated by the new show of her tan skin.

Riley didn't want to be the only one getting naked and easily pulled Kendall's own shirt over his head. Both were just so entranced by the other's body. She put her hands on his chest as he started to kiss her some more. She was beginning to fall in love with this boy's body. Her fingers gripped at his chest and she felt him hoist her up against the door. Her legs immediately wrapped themselves around Kendall's waist and she felt him pressed up against her center.

His lips traced down to her neck again to see if she would say his name like before and not even 30 seconds later, she was moaning. "Kendall!"

He couldn't help but chuckle at his test. He just loved the way his name sounded from her. "Bed?" He asked, making sure she was okay with it.

"Please," she grinned, holding on to his shoulders as he carried her over to her bed, gently laying her down and holding his weight off of her. Riley pushed herself back until her head hit her pillow, she closed her eyes for a second while Kendall tried to get situated and figure out his next move.

While he took off his shoes and socks, he watched her close her eyes and knew instantly where she was going. "Shit," he mumbled. "Riley? Hey, Riles?" He whispered down at her. She wasn't showing any signs up waking up soon. Kendall chuckled lightly, "This would only happen to me."

He stood at the end of her bed, watching her chest rise and fall and smiled at her. He knew he was such a goner as soon as he climbed in behind her. He didn't bother taking off his pants, but just slowly and carefully pulled Riley closer to him. She sighed as she rolled over to lay her head on his chest. "Sorry," she muttered, not fully asleep yet.

He chuckled softly at her and felt her smile against his chest, "S'okay. Get some sleep," He leaned down, kissing her forehead softly and slowly started stroking her arm as she laid it across his stomach.

"You're a Prince Charming, Kendall Knight." Riley drunkenly stated before drifting off in to a deep sleep.

I hope I can be yours, Riley Sparks. Only yours. His thoughts took over him as his sleep came soon after Riley's.

Sigh. That one was long. 7 pages. WOO! Review and make my day! I love feedback so help me out! Love you, guys! xoxo J.
