Chapter 10

Sorry if you think I skipped ahead to much!

WARNING: This Chapter OR the next or the one after that may be Rated M. :)

A month had soon passed by and surprisingly Riker and Laura's secret relationship had gone unnoticed. Laura and Riker had done a pretty good job keeping it a secret. Nobody was suspicious at all! They even managed dates without being caught, it was incredible.

But there was one person who was getting a little suspicious. Ratliff. He'd never miss a trick with Riker. He always knew when Riker had a secret or was up to something.

It was an early morning and Ratliff had slept round the night before. Riker went downstairs because he was gonna quickly sneak out and see Laura, but he kinda got caught before he got out of the door.

"Where are you going?" Ratliff asked him.

"You never miss a thing do you." Riker said turning to him.

"Known you too long." Ratliff said walking into the passage way. "So.. Am I trusted?"

"I'm just going for a walk.." Riker lied. Ratliff then give him a look saying 'don't lie'. "Alright.. I'm going to go meet someone."

"Who?" Ratliff asked. Riker then smiled at Ratliff like saying 'guess.' "Ross will kill you." Ratliff said "Nuff said, just as long as you two aren't together he won't be that bothered." Riker then looked away from Ratliff "Oh no Riker! Why!"

"Why what?" Ross asked walking down the stairs half asleep.

"Nothing!" Ratliff and Riker both said.

"Whatever.." Ross then went into the kitchen.

Ratliff just shook his head at Riker and folded his arms. "Look don't tell anyone!"

"How longs this been going on for?" Ratliff asked.

"About a month.. and a bit.." Riker said. Ratliff's mouth then dropped open "Right, I'm going just don't tell anyone! Especially Ross!" He then left.

Laura was stood outside a closed shop that usually opens later on in the day. She'd been waiting there for about 10 minutes waiting on Riker to come meet her. But it didn't worry her, it never did when he was late.

About few minutes later Riker came walking round the corner "Sorry I'm late, Ratliff caught me walking out the door and asked me where I was going." He said hugging her.

"That's fine." Laura said hugging back. She then pulled away and they both kissed, "Did you tell him?"

Riker then smiled at Laura like: 'please don't be mad.' "It's hard keeping things from Ratliff, especially when he knows your onto something.."

"It's fine, it doesn't matter." Laura said "Is he gonna tell anyone?"

"He won't, he's good with secrets." Riker said. Laura then smiled. "So no need to worry really."

Later on that day Ross was sat inside the house watching TV when he noticed something.. Riker had gone missing.. He hadn't been in all day! Infact.. he'd been doing this alot lately.

So he got up and walked into the kitchen where he found Ratliff and Rydel "Hey, where's Riker?" Ross asked.

"Dunno." Rydel said.

"Do you know Ratliff?" Ross asked.

"No." Ratliff lied. I hate lying to him.. "Sorry dude, probably gone for a walk. Its what he told me."

"Okay." Ross said.

"Aren't you supposed to be at the Austin & Ally set today?" Rydel asked.

"Nope. They gave the day off." Ross said "Because we kinda got a bigish episode coming up."

"What's gonna happen in it?" Ratliff asked taking a sip of his drink.

"I gotta kiss Laura." Ross said.

Ratliff then spat his drink out and started to cough "You what?!"

"Yeah, I know." Ross said smiling "Although it's not that shocking really Austin & Ally were bound to end up together and kiss.. Probably a lot of times."

"Oh wow.."

"I know right!" Ross said walking back into the living room.

"Alright, whats going on?" Rydel asked Ratliff.

"Nothing.." Ratliff lied. "Just, shocked that Ross is actually gonna get to kiss a girl he likes that is taken by someone he knows." Ratliff blurted out. Oh shit..

"What?" Rydel said shocked "Who's she dating?"

"Nobody!" Ratliff lied again "I said she MIGHT be taken."

"Ratliff!" Rydel said "Is it you?"

"Far from my friend.." Ratliff said before walking into the livingroom.
