A/N: I liked this chapter a lot. There's one part that I thought was pretty funny. haha As always thanks for reading and reviewing you guys are so awesome! :)
When they were on break Laura went to lunch with Cody. They had fun, up until Laura saw Ross and Rydel. She was pretty sure that they saw her having lunch with Cody. It's not like she was having lunch with him to be spiteful, she was having lunch with him because he called and offered.
Ross and Rydel got back to the set 20 minutes before Laura did. They were hanging out with the rest of their siblings unil Ross was called back in for the table read.
"We've been broken up for three days and she's already seeing other people." Ross whined to siblings in his dressing room.
"Ross, maybe she moved on and you should do the same." Rocky said.
"No, I don't want anyone else I just want her." Ross said still whining.
"Oh my god." Ryland and Rocky said at the same time that Rydel said "Awwwww".
"Guys be sympathetic the guy just got his heart broken." Riker said before giving Ross a brotherly pat on the shoulder.
"You know what? Fine, if she wants to date other people, I'll date other people too." Ross said sitting down.
"Don't do that." Rydel said at the same time that Ryland said "Cool who are you going to date?"
"Guys don't encourage him to do that. That's such a jerk move." Rydel said.
"Not really." Rocky said and Rydel rolled her eyes.
"And that's why you will never have a girlfriend." Rydel said and she got up and left. She went to use the bathroom but she couldn't help but walk off annoyed.
"I have a friend, who's single. Want me to set up date with her?" Ryland asked.
"How old is she exactly?" Ross asked with a raised eyebrow and Riker and Rocky chuckled.
"16." Ryland said.
"Oh okay cool. Set it up." Ross said.
While, the Lynch boys were having this conversation, Laura had got back from having lunch with Cody to find Vanessa in her dressing room. She walked in and smiled at her sister. She was happy to see her, but shocked too.
"Hey Nes, aren't you supposed to be at work?" Laura said. She sat her purse on the coffee table and sat down next to her sister.
"Yeah, I'm on my lunch break."
"That's cool, but what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to talk to you about Ross." Vanessa said and Laura rolled her eyes.
"Not this again. Vanessa, it's over. You and I both need to accept it."
"No you twit. Rydel and I figured out why you thought that Ross was going to break up with you." Vanessa said and Laura looked at her in confusion.
"Did you just call me a twit?
"Yes, and if you let me finish, you'll know why I called you a twit."
"Go on…"Laura said sounding way more confused than she looked.
"I guess Riker was teasing Ross about how you were too good for him or whatever and Ross was joking around and was like 'I'm too good for her. I'm breaking up with her because she's not good enough for me anymore.'
"Wait, how do you know he was joking around?"
"Because after he said all of that, he said 'I can't even joke like that, she's way too good for me. I love her so much'."
When Vanessa finished speaking Laura's jaw dropped. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. After she took a few moments to gather her thought she jumped up and finally spoke.
"Wait, so what you're telling me is that Ross was never going to break up with me?"
"Yup."
"And I've spent the past three days miserable for nothing?"
"Yup."
"Oh my gosh." Laura said and she started pacing back and forth.
"And now you know why I called you a twit."
"Say it."
"Say what?" Vanessa said. Now it was her turn to be confused because she had no idea what Laura was talking about.
"You were right and I was wrong."
"I can't say that knowing you're upset. I'll wait until after you two get back together." Vanessa said trying to lighten the mood with some humor.
"Get back together? I don't think that's going to happen."
"Why not?"
"Because I ruined everything. Why would he take me back?"
"Well because he still loves you."
"How do you know?"
"I'm not stupid." Vanessa said before she looked down at her watch. "But I am supposed to be back on set in 15 minutes so I'll see you at home, okay?"
"Okay." Laura said softly and Vanessa left.
Laura sat back down on the couch and put her head in her hands. She felt like the biggest idiot in the world for breaking up with Ross. She was going to try to make it up to him and try to get him to forgive her. She got up and walked down to Ross's dressing room, but before she got there she saw his siblings walking out. She continued walking down the hallway until they all passed each other.
"Hey Laura, how are you?" Riker asked with a warm, friendly smile.
"I'm good, I guess. How are you guys?"
"Good" Riker, Rocky and Ryland said at the same time.
"Well, that's good." Laura said.
"Laura, want to hang out tonight?" Rydel asked.
"Sure that sounds awesome, but how about tomorrow night?" Laura asked. She wanted to figure out a way to see Ross tonight.
"Cool, how about we go to the movies?"
"Okay, that sounds cool. I really want to see Monsters Inc in 3D, it looks epic." Laura said and Rydel giggled.
"It also looks like it came out 12 years ago." Riker said and Laura and Rydel rolled their eyes.
"It didn't come out in 3D 12 years ago." Laura said.
"Touché my short friend." Riker said and he patted Laura on the head and she giggled.
"Anyways, Laura I'll pick you up tomorrow?" Rydel said.
"That's perfect, see you then. Bye guys."
"Bye." The Lynch's said before walking off in the opposite direction.
Laura took a deep breath and finished walking the rest of the way down the hallway to Ross's dressing room. She knocked on the door and he opened it. He stood there looking slightly confused. They looked at each other in silence before Ross decided to break the silence.
"Hey, is there something wrong?" He asked sounding concerned.
"Um, no it's just that I…um nevermind." Laura said and she turned to walk away but Ross lightly grabbed her arm.
"Just because we're not dating anymore doesn't mean that you can't come talk to me anymore."
That made her smile and then he smiled back at her. This made her think about all the good times they had while they were still together. Her thoughts were interrupted when she realized he was talking to her.
"So what do you need?"
"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out tonight, ya know just as friends."
"I want to." Ross said and Laura's face lit up.
"Yay."
"But I can't."
When he said this her face dropped. All of a sudden she felt really, nervous, embarrassed and hurt. He must've noticed this because he quickly continued.
"I have other plans tonight. Sorry Laura." He said sounding extremely sincere.
"It's okay, maybe some other time." She said and then she walked away.
He felt like the biggest jerk in the world. He felt like a jerk because one, he turned down Laura's offer to hang out. And two because he agreed to go on a date with some girl he didn't know just because he got jealous.
Laura made it back to her dressing room and took out her phone. She decided that she wasn't going to sit home depressed all night. She texted Rydel telling her that she want to go to the movies tonight and Rydel texted her back saying she was going to pick her up at around 5 from the studio.
