A/N: Ryan walking in last chapter was a last minute change, and so this chapter was completely improvised. Hope you all enjoy it! :)
Ch.20 Rock Climbing
"You two have been together for how long?" Kelsey demanded. Dana and Carter sat on the couch like teenagers caught in the act, with Kelsey and Ryan standing in front of them.
"Three weeks." Dana answered.
"What! And you didn't feel the need to tell anyone about your relationship?" Kelsey asked before Ryan could say anything. Carter and Dana looked at each other and didn't reply.
"Ok Kels, let's let them explain." Ryan said sitting Kelsey down. "So how did this all start?" Ryan asked calmly.
"Ok we're done here; I'm not discussing this with you." Dana told her brother and got up.
"Why not?" Ryan asked.
"We're leaving." Dana said taking Carters hand and heading for the door. Carter looked back at Kelsey and Ryan and shrugged as he was lead out of the apartment by Dana.
"Are you going to explain anything to him?" Carter asked as they got into the elevator.
"Nope, I have to tell Kelsey, Ryan will ask you." Dana said with a smile.
"You're just going to let me face your brother alone?" Carter asked with an eyebrow raise.
"I never said being my boyfriend would be easy." Dana said hugging his waist. He smiled and kissed the top of her head.
"Can you believe those two?" Kelsey said still outraged. "For weeks I kept asking Dana if something was going on between the two of them but no she wouldn't tell me anything. Why would she not tell me? We all knew they liked each other it's not like it was some big secret!" Kelsey rambled pacing back and forth.
"Kels, relax." Ryan said taking her waist and sitting her in between his legs on the couch.
"She lied to us! I knew something was going on between them and sh…" Her words were interrupted by Ryan's lips pressing onto hers.
"She should have said something." Kelsey said as they pulled apart.
"You said so yourself you knew something was up, they didn't have to say anything it's been pretty obvious." Ryan said soothing Kelsey's outrage.
"I love you." She said with a smile.
"I love you too Kels." He said giving her another soft kiss.
5 Months Later
Ryan and Kelsey decided to go rock climbing together. Today was the day Ryan thought he had known it would be since he had given Kelsey the idea. Everyone knew that today was the day; Dana had helped him with all the details. As they climbed higher and higher up the mountain Ryan's nerves intensified.
"Almost there." Kelsey said breathless. Ryan smiled and continued to climb up. They made their up the rocky mountain and caught their breath. The sight was amazing to one side they could see rocky mountains and to the other the pacific ocean. The weather was nice, the sea breeze blowing all around them, and Ryan knew it was now or never.
"Hey Kels, I love you." He said nervously.
"I love you too." She giggled looking all around.
"Kelsey Winslow, I love you so much." He said with a smile and took her hands in his.
"Ryan?" she asked with a smile.
"Kelsey will you marry me?" Ryan asked getting on one knew and opening a small square box to reveal a silver band with a square yellow diamond in the middle surrounded with two smaller clear diamonds on each side.
"Oh my god Ryan…Ryan." Kelsey kept saying in complete shock. Sure she was in love with the boy but it was all so soon things between them had moved all so suddenly, but she loved him and that was all that matter.
"Yes, I'll marry you." She answered with a smile, a small tear of joy slipping from her eye. Relief and joy swept through Ryan and he took the ring and placed it on Kelsey's left hand. He got up and she kissed him clinging onto his neck tightly.
"Sky cowboy here." Joel said through a loud speaker, and then Kelsey noticed the helicopter hovering above them. Joel landed and then Ryan and Kelsey got on.
"Hope you guys aren't afraid of heights." Joel said looking back to where Kelsey and Ryan sat. Both were glowing, and held onto each other's hands tightly.
"He did it!" Dana said jumping into Carters arms and kissing him tightly. They had been watching the whole thing from a remote part of the beach.
