Riley's POV:
"I don't like this one either Lucas, it's too small. Plus I don't want an open plan kitchen"
Lucas rolls his eyes in frustration, before giving the estate agent an apologetic smile
"Riles this is the 11th apartment we've looked at in two days. And you've said the same thing about all of them"
"I know" I sigh "But how are we going to raise Aubrey in such a small place, she's not gonna be 3 months old forever!"
"Sorry for interrupting, but I would suggest looking at three bed roomed houses if you are going to be living with a child" The estate agent suggests
Lucas's eyes light up with excitement "Yeah, that's a good idea...our own little house"
I bring my braid over my shoulder and bite my lip nervously, this is a big step, we'll be like a real family.
A family?
The idea had never occurred to me until now. I smile at the idea of our own house, we could paint Aubrey's room pink, oh or maybe mint green...
"Riley, what do you think?" I snap out of my daydream and nod my head in agreement
"I love the idea too"
The estate agent shows us a different part of town filled with houses for small families. He shows us a three bed roomed house, and I instantly adore it. The little cottage-like building is remotely small, but it's simplicity is what draws you in. The outside is painted white, and the brown slanting roof seems to tie in with the rest of the house. Flowers are planted in the front yard, and a welcome sign is pinned to the wooden front door. As soon as I step inside a feeling of warmth surrounds me. The rooms are a perfect size, and the living room has a little fireplace perfect for the winter. We go outside to the garden and I marvel at the large space, an old tree is planted in the corner with a cute wooden swing attached to it. As amazing as the rest of the house is, it's the bedrooms that assure me that this is our new home. I squeal in delight as I realise that all three bedrooms have their own bay window, I smile to myself glad that Aubrey will grow up with a bay window of her own.
"Lucas, this is the one" I state confidently
"Really?" he raises an eyebrow "It's the bay windows isn't it?" he laughs
"Just imagine, Aubrey will have her own bay window!" I gasp excitedly
"Well it's a good thing I love this place too" he teases
"So is this the one, or should we look at other places?" The estate agent asks warily
"This is the one" I reply, a huge smile spreading across my face.
"Ok just sign here and the place is yours. Remember that you have a month to move in" the estate agents says. I sign the last page and grab the keys from the estate agents hand.
"Lucas, you do know what this means right?" I hint
"Please don't tell me..."
"Shopping!" I interrupt before he can finish
Shopping with Lucas is a nightmare! I mean, who can't tell the difference between mint green and mint macaroon?
"Lucas" I groan "the mint macaroon is too dark, I said mint green"
"I give up" he over exaggerates throwing his hands in the air "how long does it take to choose a paint colour?"
"You have to be careful, you're gonna see these colours every day, and we are not repainting if you don't like a colour" I shoot back
He mumbles something under his breath before putting the paint tub back on the shelf. I shake my head at his immaturity before browsing through some more colours
"Riley don't your parents have to go somewhere soon? We were supposed to pick up Aubrey an hour ago"
"Looks like we'll have to comeback tomorrow" I say playfully
"Do we have to?" Lucas moans in a childlike manner.
"Yep, we do. And then after we can go furniture shopping" I chuckle lightly as his eyes widen in genuine horror.
"Guys sometimes" I mutter whilst rolling my eyes.
1 month later
I flop down on the sofa in exhaustion. I look down at my paint covered hands satisfied with my work.
"Wow you did a great job with Aubrey's room" I hear Lucas say behind me. He wraps his arms around my waist from behind, and I swivel round and look into his green eyes. As I do, an idea pops into my mind.
"Hey Lucas" I say in the most attractive voice I can muster
"Hi Riles" his voice slightly wavers
"There's something I've been wanting to do for a long time" I hold back a smirk, enjoying every second of this
"What's that?" he asks clearly intrigued
"This!" I squeal whilst smothering the paint on my hands all over his face. I bolt across the room, run up the stairs and hide in my closet. I can hear him pacing the room, gradually getting closer to the closet.
"I know you're in here Riles, you can run but you can't hide"
He reaches for the handle, but before he can grab me I sprint out of the room, and down the stairs. I side open the door to the backyard, but soon after realise that I have trapped myself. Lucas nears me, a pure look of mischievousness on his face.
I prepare to run but he pulls me back this time, causing us both the tumble to the ground. We both laugh, our bodies tangled together on the floor. Suddenly Lucas looks up at me, a slight twinkle in his sea foam green eyes. He pushes a stray strand of hair behind my ear and leans down slowly, before our lips connect...
A/N: Sorry for the cliff hanger guys, could Rucas finally be happening? Until next time,
