Chapter 5
After a couple months Ell moved in with me and Bella. Then on our three month anniveersary I came home to find him with Rydel. I had left Bella with my parents so she wasn't there thankfully. I threw both of them out of the house. Then I called Rocky and Ross and asked them to bring Bella home.
"Daddy." Bella said after Rocky and Ross left.
"Yes, baby girlm?" I asked.
"Where's Papa?" she asked, puzzled.
My eyes filled with tears, "Baby girl, Papa isn't Papa anymore."
"Why?" she asked.
"Well, Papa did something very mean, and hurt daddy a lot. So, daddy isn't dating him anymore. So he isn't Papa anymore." I tried to explain to her.
"Oh. Will I get a new Papa?" she asked.
"Maybe eventually, baby girl." I said smiling at her innocence. She hugged me, and I cuddled close to her.
The next week I drove Bella to pre-school, then I drove back to our apartment. I sat on the couch, and stared at nothing. I wasto depressed there was just nothing to do. There was a knock at the door.
"Come in." I called. The door opened.
"Hey, bro." it was Ross.
"Hey." I said, still staring at nothing.
"Bro, you have got to snap out of this. I get he hurt you, and it's okay to be sad, but you can't just sit here and mope." Ross said.
"It hurts, Rossy." I said, laying my head on his shoulder.
"I know bro." he said playing with my hair. "They both feel awful, but maybe it's better this way. There is someone perfect for you and Bella out there Rike. I just know it. And they will be so much better than Ell or anyone else, okay?"
"Thanks, Ross I needed that." I said sniffling.
"No problem, bro." Ross said, "Do you think we should put R5 on hiatus?"
"Hell no!" I exclaimed, "I can be civil if they can."
"Alright, bro. I love you." Ross said standing up.
"Love you too, little bro." I said hugging him.
"Take care of yourself, and that little girl." Ross said, as he reached the door.
"I will." I called, smiling for the first time since it happened.
Two years later...
Today is Bella's first day of Kindergarten. I'm so nervous for her. Well, I was until I heard who her teacher was gonna be. Her teacher was no other than Curt Mega. My best friend from Glee. Shortly after Glee finished, Curt divorced his wife, and came out to the world. Then several months later he quit acting to teach grade school. I hadn't heard from him in quite a while, of course we were both busy.
I walked into the classroom, Bella attached to my pant leg. She was terrified the poor sweetheart. When I walked in Curt looked up to see who it was. His eyes lit up with recognition, and something else. I wasn't quite sure what it was. Curt looked just as beautiful as I remembered him looking. His brown hair, and brown eyes, and that gorgeous smile that looked like it could light up the world.
He walked toward us. When he got to me he smiled, and hugged me.
"Well, if it isn't Riker Lynch." he said smiling. He turned to Bella. "And who might you be?" he asked.
"I'm Bella Arlene Lynch." she said holding out her hand to Curt. He chuckled, and shook it.
"You are just like your daddy." he said. She nodded, obviously very proud of that fact. "Why don't you go find your desk?" She nodded, and reluctantly left me. Curt stood up, and turned to me.
"So, where's the other Mr. Lynch?" he asked curiously.
"Oh, I'm not married." I said, blushing slightly.
"I always thought you would've found someone by now." Curt said.
"Nah. I tried one time after I adopted Bella, things didn't work out." I said, thinking of Ell. I forgave him and Rydel a long time ago, but it still hurts sometimes. They're still together. We talked for a couple more minutes, before Curt had to go. I invited him over to our apartment to catch up sometime. So, he's coming over on Friday.
