I know I'm the worst. I said I would have this out weeks ago. But the fanfiction gods had it out for me and kept deleting my chapter and replacing it with another. It made me mad and I had to step away before I did something I would regret. But hopefully you guys are still enjoying the story sorry if chapter isn't any good. But enjoy anyways.

Riley smiled as she stared out the kitchen window slowly mixing her cake mix. She continued staring humming softly before letting out a slight giggle. She continued giggling biting at her lip trying desperately to keep herself and her giggles stifled.

But the more she tried the harder she found it. She was just so unbelievably happy and couldn't keep from smiling and giggling. She was so happy she wanted to run up the tallest hill with Toto and spin around singing like Julie Andrews in the sound of music.

Honestly she wanted to sing every song from every musical. She didn't care if anyone judged her. She was happy and she wanted to show it. She continued stirring dancing and humming when one of her favorite songs came on the radio she had on.

"I used to think maybe you loved me now baby I'm sure. And I just can't wait till the day when you come knock on my door." She smiled dancing around until... "I'm walking on sun...ahh!" She screamed dropping the bowl splattering herself and the cabinet.

"Auggie!" She yells glaring at him as he lowers his phone chuckling. "That goes in the Riley file." He laughed as Riley picked up the whisk flicking batter at him. "You know you're cleaning this up right?" She said pointing at the mess as he stared at her.

"How do you figure that?" He asked picking up a muffin she had made earlier and takes a bite. "Because you scared me that's why." She tells him tossing a rag to him. "Oh your just trying to make me clean cause I caught you acting all twirly cause you got kissed last night."

Riley turned looking at him with wide eyes as Auggie smirked at her. "I don't know what you're talking about." She said turning back towards the sink turning red. "Oh Lucas kiss me. Oh yes Riley I'll kiss you." Auggie mimicked in a falsetto and deep voice.

Riley turned around glaring at him as Auggie chuckled wiping down the cabinet. "You know you would look a lot more menacing if you weren't smiling at the same time." Auggie tells her gesturing at her face. "I'm not smiling." She says placing her hand over her mouth trying to hide the obvious smile.

"Oh okay." Auggie laughed shaking his head at her. "You look like what the joker and a step ford wife baby would look like. It's creepy." He tells her as she gives him a look. "What's creepy?" They turn and see Morgan widening her eyes at all the goodies in the kitchen.

"Okay did you two rob a bakery or did Martha Stewart explode in here?" She asked as Auggie chuckled. "Actually Riley got smooched last night so now she is baking for her future kids." Riley gasps punching him in the arm as Morgan smiled at her.

"Morgan don't make it a bigger deal than it is." Riley said calmly as Morgan smiled nodding her head and pulling out her phone. "Oh you're absolutely right." She tells her nodding as she begins to text. "Who are you texting?" She asked moving towards Morgan who backs up.

"Nobody really." She says laughing as Riley chases her around the house shouting for her to give her her phone while Auggie laughed. Riley gulped the glass of water as she slumped on the couch to tired to move.

She had spent the last twenty minutes chasing and playing monkey in the middle with Morgan and Auggie who kept teasing her about finally kissing Lucas the night before.

"Excuse me miss how much for the entire table filled with goodies?" Riley looked behind her seeing Dominic holding up a plate of brownies. "Haha. On the house if you only came to visit and not make fun of me too."

Dominic snapped his fingers pulling out his wallet placing a twenty on the couch next to her as she groans. "Aunt Morgan told you?" She asked covering her face with her arm. "Sort of." He says as Riley lowered her arm. "I'm afraid to ask what that means."

"We have a group chat going with the older Friars." He says as Riley widened her eyes. "Please tell me your lying?" He shakes his head as Riley covers her face with a pillow. "So they all know now?" She asked knowing that's probably where Auggie and Morgan went when she kicked them out.

"Yup. Sorry." He tells her patting her leg. "Since I have you here I have something to tell you." Riley lowers the pillow as she sees him set a tiny box by her head. "Please tell me Morgan didn't get a ring for me to propose to Lucas with? Cause that's just taking it to far." She says tossing it back to him.

"Actually." He chuckles as Riley gasps smiling as he opens it to show her. "You're going to ask aunt Morgan to marry you?" He nods as she yells yay hugging him and looking at the ring. "Wow. I know it's not really possible but this ring looks like Morgan."

Dominic laughs as she hands it back and he stares at it. "That's one of the reasons I chose it. It does have that Morgan Matthews look to it." He places it back in his pocket as he smiles at Riley. "I take it you give your blessing?"

"Of course why wouldn't I? Did you ask my grandparents?" He nods as he grabs for a cookie. "Last week actually. I know how out of everything Morgan is stickler for that type of thing." He pauses frowning slightly.

"What?" Riley asked tilting her head. "You don't think it's to soon right? I mean we've only been together six months." Riley smiled shaking her head at him. "Honestly I think when you know you know. Time really doesn't matter what matters is if you are happy." She smiles shrugging her shoulders as she grabs a cookie.

"I take it you know from experience?" He asked as Riley looked at him with a confused expression. "The whole you know when you know thing. Your talking about Lucas and yourself right?" Riley choked on her cookie spitting it out as Dominic patted her back.

"I wasn't talking about Lucas and I. We barely..no it's to soon for us." She said as Dominic phone rings. "I don't know. Even though you are embarrassed by everyone cause you guys you know you haven't stopped smiling."

Riley covered her mouth as he walked away chuckling. She lowered her hand touching her lips feeling the smile still on her face. What could she say she was happy. Embarrassed but happy none the less.

There was just one thing that bothered her and that was she didn't know if this meant Lucas and her were together. Sure they kissed and went on a date together but did that signify they were dating?

Did Lucas want to date her? Was this just a one time thing for him? Now that he finally got his kiss would he ignore her?

"Stop thinking whatever you're thinking and just ask." She turned around seeing Auggie holding a plate with a slice of cake. "What makes you think I'm thinking anything?" She asked as he sat across from her giving her a look.

"Twin telepathy remember? Besides I'm positive he's thinking the same thing. Trust me." He chuckles softly as Riley looks at him. "Please tell me your lying?" She asked as Auggie shrugged.

She groans as she hears her phone ring. "You better answer that." Auggie gestures with his fork. "Why?" She asked as Auggie slowly stood up walking backwards. "Because it's dad and I may have unintentionally mentioned I talked to you."

"Auggie!" She shouts as he runs only coming back in for his cake before running again. "You just lost your twin privileges!" She yells out grabbing her phone and taking a deep breath. "Hi daddy!" She says cheerfully.

"Forty eight hours Riley Marie Matthews. Forty eight hours." He repeats as she shakes her head. "That's a good show." She says regretting it when he scoffs. "Well you wouldn't think it was so great when you would have ended up on it. Would you?"

"Dad." She sighs softly as she hears him muttering under his breath before silence. "Hello honey you still there?" Her mom ask as Riley shakes her head. "Yeah mom I'm still here. What happened to dad?" She asked even though she can hear him in the background muttering about ditches and lost shoes.

"Oh you know him. Makes a big fuss out of everything. Blame your uncle Josh for showing him that show." Her mom says making Riley laugh. "I think Auggie is to blame as well." She adds as Riley nods her head even though her mom couldn't see her.

"So does this mean you'll finally tell us where you are since Auggie knows?" Her mom asked as Riley bit her lip. "He doesn't know know. I talked to him on the phone that's all." Riley says hoping her mom buys it. "Well you sound a lot better than the last time we talked." She says as Riley ask what she means. "You sound happier."

Riley smiled as she let out a light laugh looking over towards the house next door. "I am happier."


Lucas rubbed his eyes as he smiled softly at the birds chirping. Usually he would groan and mentally curse himself for leaving his window open but not today.

No today he was okay with the birds chirping loudly at each other on the branch near his window for one reason.

He was happy unbelievably and undeniably happy.

He smiled as he throws his blankets off regretting it when he sees the bright flash covering himself back up. "Ma!" He shouts as he hears the click of her camera. "Lucas Friar you get out that bed." She tells him as he shakes his head.

"Why are you taking my picture? I'm not dressed." He tells her as she continues photographing him at the same time pulling the blankets. "Because I'm just so happy and want to document this day!" She shouts as Lucas widens his eyes.

"Mom?" He ask lowering the blanket slightly seeing her smiling at him. "Yes son?" She ask as he covers his face groaning. "How did you find out?" He asked as she squeals in delight. "Does it matter I'm just so happy!"

Lucas groaned as someone pulls the blanket off him making him fall on the floor. "Let's go junior." His dad says chuckling as his mom continues to take his picture. Lucas covers his face as he grabs clothes quickly before heading into the bathroom locking the door.

He took a quick shower poking his head out the door checking to see if his mom was still in his room. He breathed a sigh of relief when his room is empty and he heads downstairs.

He slowly walks downstairs looking around every corner hoping he wouldn't see her with her camera pointed at him ready to snap his photo. "Morning." He jumps turning around as he sees Auggie sitting on the couch smiling at him.

"Morning. What are you doing here?" He asked as Auggie follows him into the kitchen. "Oh just basking in the morning sunshine. Muffin?" Auggie offers gesturing at the basket on the counter. "Shouldn't I be offering you some? How did you get in?"

"Oh I brought those over when Riley kicked aunt Morgan and I out the house." At the mention of Riley's name Lucas immediately starts to smile. "Geez you got it bad." Auggie mutters as Lucas looks at him weirdly. "My sister has the same look on her face." He tells him gesturing at the wide smile on his face.

"Well sometimes people just wake up in good moods. Happens a lot you know." Lucas tells him sitting down with his coffee grabbing a muffin. "Yeah that and finally kissing the girl you've been in love with since you were six can help too." Lucas begins to choke spitting his muffin out.

"Love?" He chokes as Auggie nods his head. He knew he liked Riley but he didn't know if it was love yet. He wasn't even sure what they were now after that amazing kiss. Were they together? Were they not together? Lucas had so many thoughts running threw his mind he didn't hear Auggie laughing at him.

"Maybe you should ask her instead of thinking about it." He says as Lucas looks at him with wide eyes. "I was thinking out loud wasn't I?" Auggie laughed nodding his head as Lucas groaned.

"Should I ask her out? I mean I don't really want to freak her out and think I'm moving to fast or anything." Auggie held up his hand shaking his head as Lucas sipped his coffee. "Trust me Lucas she isn't thinking you guys are moving to fast. But before you go profess your love for her I need to say something serious to you."

Lucas gives him a look before gesturing for him to go on. He watched as Auggie gathered up the crumbs around him placing them on a napkin before folding his hands on the table. "As you know Riley is my sister and one of my favorite people in the world next to my wife."

Lucas looks at him weirdly before smiling remembering the little girl he would talk about and Riley mentioned before. "Riley is my sister and I'm her only brother. And her only brother is telling you." He leaned forward as Lucas does the same. "Whatever happens don't hurt my sister."

He leans back nodding his head as Lucas gulps. "I promise Auggie." He says as Auggie looks at him. "Good." He pulls his phone out his pocket groaning. "I got to take this but remember what I said."

Lucas nodded once again staring at his cup smiling softly. He couldn't help chuckling at the fact he got a stern talking to by a kid much younger than him. He tapped the table deciding that he was going to go over to Riley's and ask her out.

He had just grabbed his jacket when Tristan tackles him to the ground. "Tris what the hell?!" He shouts as Tristan sits on him. "Sorry little brother moms orders." Lucas looked at him in disbelief as Tristan nodded his head. "What are y'all doing?" Pappy joe asked shaking his head. "Mom said to stop Lucas from going over to see his Juliet so I did." Pappy joe shakes his head as he steps over them ignoring Lucas pleas.

"Thanks a lot Pappy joe!" He shouts making his grandpa chuckle. "Ma why?" Lucas asked once he sees his mom and Morgan come into view. "Because I said so and I don't want to have to tell my future grandkids that their father ruined what could be a very romantic moment in his relationship."

Lucas groaned banging his head on the floor as Morgan and his mom stepped over him talking about ways for him to ask Riley for her hand to be his girlfriend. He glares at his brother who chuckles nodding along to the craziness coming from them.

"Okay I have to go." Lucas groans hearing his phone go off as he pushes Tristan up causing him to fall. "Lucas Friar don't you dare go next door! Morgan and I are planning the perfect date for you two." He shakes his head grabbing his keys heading for his truck.

He heads out stopping at the gate of Morgan's ranch debating if he should go and just ask Riley out before his mom and Morgan do it for him or not. He taps the wheel as he sees Morgan's barn coming up with a better idea. He would recreate their first date as husband and wife.

Something nobody knew they did. Especially since they snuck out at night and gorged themselves on the sweets they brought back from grandma gandy bakery. He nodded driving away as he set out to grab the things they would need.

He stopped by his clinic even though it was his day off making sure everything was going well. Next he headed for the bakery ordering everything he could remember and more. "Well look who it is Lucas i finally kissed her Friar." He lowers his head shaking it as the three stooges surround him.

"Who told you guys?" He asked as Zay kept wiggling his eyebrows at him. "Oh we can't reveal our source that's just unprofessional." Asher says with a serious look as Dylan and Zay snicker. "So my mom or my brother?" Lucas asked as they all laugh.

"That woman has no filter. You would think this is my first date or girlfriend." He says sitting down as the guys join him. "Well technically it kind of is." Zay says as Lucas looks at him weirdly. "Think about it Luke. All the girls you "dated" you never really dated. They were mere dinner companions."

Thee guys nodded their head as Lucas pulled out his phone. "Lucas what do you think of a dinner at chubbie?" His mom ask the minute he says hello. "That's sounds fine what time should I meet you guys there?" He ask as his mom laughs.

"No for you and Riley. No good huh? Maybe that new Italian restaurant? Yes that's perfect I'll make reservations for you two for tonight bye." Lucas sighs as he puts his phone away glaring at the guys as they try to hold in their laughs.

"I love your mom she is amazing!" Dylan chuckles as Lucas punches him. "Funny I got to go." He grabs his food shaking his head as the guys sing kiss the girl to him. He sets off for home wishing he hadn't when he sees his mom waiting for him with a suit in her hand.

"Reservations at seven and suit is required. I already had Morgan tell Riley. Don't be late." She adds handing him the bag. He sighs as he sits on the porch looking over towards Riley's.

"Shouldn't ya be getting ready?" His pappy Joe ask sitting next to him. "Yes but this isn't how I wanted it to go. I wanted it to be special and I know for a fact everyone will probably be at the next table watching us. With cameras." He says laying down as Pappy joe chuckles.

"What if I tell y'all I could help with that?" Lucas looks at him as his Pappy Joe smiles heading back inside.

Hours later with no word from Pappy Joe Lucas puts on his suit jacket as he walks slowly down the stairs. He covers his face as his mom continues to take pictures almost blinding him and making him lose his footing.

"Oh you look so handsome and you should see Riley she looks beautiful." His mom says. "Okay well we have to run but Lucas don't forget to ask her." His mom shouts as she ushers his dad and brother in the car. Lucas shook his head as he walked towards his truck.

"Going the wrong way ain't ya?" He turns seeing his Pappy Joe holding up roses with a smile. "What's going on?" He ask as he takes the flowers. "I'm helping ya with your date. She waiting for ya. In ya spot."

Lucas looked over seeing Riley looking around as he chuckles softly.

"Thanks Pappy joe. But what..." He started to say as he shook his head. "Already taken care of now go." Lucas nodded as he headed to their spot stopping and taking a breath first.

"Hi."
