Becky
"This is my stop." I said and nodding at the door closest to us.
"Does this night really have to end?" Alex asked and I pushed him lightly.
"Yes." I said, hunting around for my key in my bag.
"You will call me right?" he asked, peeking over my shoulder in an attempt to help.
"Of course I'll call you! I want this to happen as much as you do."
"Then why," he said while reaching down and plucking my key from my bag. "Are you giving me a trial run?" I snatched the key from him and turned to face him, our faces were awfully close and I felt myself blush.
"Because I wanna see if you can resist the temptation of drink and women." He chuckled and reached out, stroking my cheek.
"If I'm with you the temptation of women is gone, can't promise the drink one though." I smiled and he leaned in, brushing his lips against my cheek.
He turned and started walking down the corridor. "You better call me!" he called and I nodded.
"I will!" I yelled back before slipping my key into the lock and opening the door.
I gasped when I saw Randy sitting beside Barbie.
"Oh hey!" Barbie said, standing up and coming to greet me as if her spending time with Randy Orton was perfectly normal. "You're back, how was the date?"
Randy turned to us and frowned. "Date? What date?" he asked and I glared at Barbie who just shrugged.
"It wasn't a date." I said ignoring her attempts to give me a hug and pushing past her. She gave me a hurt look before shutting the door and following me back over to the TV.
"So what was it then?" Randy asked me, picking up a beer bottle and taking a sip from it.
"Two friends talking over dinner."
"Sounds like a date to me!" Barbie sang as she sat next to Randy.
"Well it wasn't." I said grinning as I came up with a way to get rid of her good mood. "So what's going on with you two? You seem very… Cosy." Barbie glared at me and Randy laughed.
"This happens to be dinner between two new friends." He said, raising his beer bottle towards me. "And I understand that you had a part to play in this, so thank you." he said, setting the bottle down and standing up.
"Where you going Orton? Aren't you gonna say goodnight to your date?" I asked and received a cushion to the face from Barbie.
"Bye girls." He said before he headed for the door and left.
"I hate you." Barbie said, continuing to sit and glare at me.
"So what was Randy doing in our room?"
"He was keeping me company, you were off with Alex and I didn't know what time you'd be back so I couldn't invite Eve round cause with my luck you would come home early see us and then world war three would resume." I nodded.
"What about Alicia?"
"Alicia is with Eve. She agrees with me you know." Barbie said and I frowned.
"Agrees with you about what?"
"About one of you apologizing to the other." Barbie said and I sighed.
"It's too late for that to happen now." I said and she gave me a small smile.
"I knew you'd give in, eventually." She said and headed to the bathroom before I could take it back.
I sighed and looked for my phone, when I found it I scrolled through my contacts. Once I found who I was looking for I went to hit call when there was a knock at the door.
Frowning I stood up to answer it and was shocked when I saw my sister standing there, a sad smile on her face.
"Hey," she said softly, meeting my gaze for a few seconds before turning her attention elsewhere.
"I was just about to call you." I confessed and she met my gaze once more. "I'm guessing you've come here to do what I was gonna do over the phone." I said and she nodded.
"I'm sorry." She whispered and I pulled her into a hug.
"I'm sorry too." I said and I meant it, I hated fighting with my sister, though I wouldn't admit this to her.
We pulled away from the embrace and she gave me a proper smile which I returned.
"That wasn't so bad was it?" a familiar voice said and I rolled my eyes when I saw Barbie with a huge grin on her face.
"No." Eve said. "Thanks for getting Alicia to drum it into me, it actually feels good to have my sister back." She said nudging me.
"Well I didn't force her to; I just mentioned the idea to her. The drumming was all her, I swear."
"Why am I having a hard time believing that?" Eve asked and Barbie shrugged.
"Maybe because it worked?" Eve laughed and gave me another small hug.
"I'll see you two in the morning." She said before leaving, I shut the door behind her.
Alex
"Hey Alex!" a voice behind me said just as I was about to enter my room and I turned to see Ryder. I swallowed nervously and gave him a small smile.
"Hey man." I said, nodding at him.
"Where've you been?" he asked and I racked my brain for a suitable excuse.
"I had a date."
"Was she so important that you ditched your buddy?" Zack asked and I nodded, I mentally slapped myself. I couldn't believe I'd forgotten about my plans with Ryder! He gave me a hurt look before grinning.
"So who was it?" he asked and I shrugged.
"You wouldn't know her." I said trying to end the conversation but Ryder persisted.
"C'mon man, you can tell me who she is!"
"You won't know her! Hell I hardly knew her till our date!" I said, starting to step into my room.
"So you didn't know her but she was more important than a night out with your friend, nice Riley." Ryder said coldly before slamming the door to his room.
I sighed before entering my own room. Ryder would cool off in the morning; I'd make it up to him then.
I started to walk towards the bathroom for a shower when my phone went off. I frowned and pulled it out of my pocket, smiling when I saw Becky's name on the screen.
So when's your first trial happening? x
I laughed and shook my head.
Whenever you're free
I sent back, secretly hoping that would be soon I'd waited too long for this moment.
I walked into the bathroom and placed my phone on the side. As I pulled my shirt off I heard the familiar buzzing and I grinned and I tossed the shirt aside and picked it up.
Next Monday? x
I frowned.
Next Monday? Why are you so busy this week?
I continued to strip before getting into the shower. The warm water washing away my fears of Zack finding out, if I passed of course.
If I did pass obviously I would tell him because that would only be fair, but if things did work out and it got back to Zack in some other way I was scared of his reaction.
When I got out of the shower I saw I had two texts, I frowned when I saw they were from both of the Torres women. Curious I opened the one from Eve first.
I hear you've finally scored a date with my sister, be careful Riley and treat her right xoxo
I frowned and sent a reply before opening the text from Becky, I chuckled when I saw that it was practically a paragraph.
Well I promised Eve and Barbie movie night tomorrow, Alicia wants to go shopping the next day, after that I have a lunch date with Zack but only to call things off, then me and the girls are going out clubbing on Friday x
I shook my head but I was glad she was calling things off with Ryder, even if it meant he would probably complain about it to me the next day.
What about Saturday?
I sent as another text came through from Eve, frowning I opened it.
You've already hurt her once Riley I'm not as willing to trust you as she is and be careful of Ryder xoxo
I sighed, why was everyone hung up on the thing with Stacey? It was only one night and not a mistake I was willing to make with Becky again.
I didn't bother replying to Eve and waited for a reply from Becky as I got dressed. As I started to pack my things away I heard my phone go off again and I picked it up laughing when I read the message.
I'll be hung over x
I smiled as I sent a reply and my smile got bigger when she responded almost immediately.
Fine but if I don't have a good time on Friday I'm holding you responsible! x
I chuckled before putting my phone away, hoping Saturday would come quickly.
