Vanessa's POV
I drive to the Lynch home. Ross is gonna talk to me.
I make my way to the front door and knock.
To my surprise Andrew opens the door.
"Oh hey Andrew." I say.
"Hey Ness!" He smiles, "Where's Laur?"
"She's...I have no idea."
"What do you mean?" He asks, "Is she okay?"
"Honestly...I'm not sure. But she won't tell me where she is."
"Maybe I can text her.." He says, "She still has her old phone number right?"
"Yeah..but can I just speak to Ross please?"
"Uh..sure..but he might not answer..he is with his girlfriend. Come on in anyways."
"What?" I ask, but he already disappears.
I sigh and sit on the couch.
What does he mean? Is Laur here?
I hear footsteps from upstairs and soon I see Ross, followed by a girl. What?
"Hey..Vanessa.." He says.
"Do you mind telling me what the hell happened?" I snap.
"Laura didn't-"
"No. Now spill."
"I.." He stares at the girl next to him,"She and I broke up because...well I have feelings for Court." He says squeezing the girl's hand.
"You piece of shit." I say and slap his face.
"Hey!" The girl says, "What's your deal?"
"You are." I spit.
"What the hell did I do?"
"You were born." I snap. Rage filling my insides.
"What? You little..."
"Bitch? Yeah I get that from my mother. She was a no good bitch. She ditched her two young daughters because she was a coward."
"Ugh!" She screams and jumps on me.
She has very little experience fighting though..I can tell.
I easily pull her off me and give her two slaps clear on her face.
"Ah! I'm a model! Excuse you! I can't have a bruised face!"
"Aww I'm sorry.." I say, "In that case.." I slap her once more.
"Vanessa!" Ross says, pulling me off the twig.
"What! Don't touch me!"
"Well take your hands off her!" He screams at me.
"Dude!" Someone says from behind me.
Riker.
He steps in and pushes Ross off me.
"Cool it. She's a lady."
"She started it." He says.
"Well I'm ending it." Riker says.
He walks over to me and Courtney goes to Ross.
Slut.
"You okay?" Riker asks.
"Yeah.." I say, and stare at his beautiful eyes.
"But you." I say and go towards Ross, "Where is my sister?"
"What?" He says, concern clear on his face, "You don't know where she is?"
"No.." I say, a tear streaming down my face, "and it's all your fault."
Ross' eyes widen and his face fills with guilt and concern.
"That's enough." I hear Riker say behind me.
He picks me up and I yell, "Put me down!"
"No."
He carries me all the way outside and when we make it to my car, he sets me on the hood.
"Why'd you do that?" I ask, sniffling.
"Truth..." He says.
"Yes."
"I...couldn't watch you cry any longer."
"Why?"
"Because...well because it doesn't make me happy seeing you cry. On the contrary, it brings me a lot of pain...anger..."
"Why?" I ask again.
He smiles and looks at me, "I think you know."
"Yeah.." I whisper and touch his hand, "and I think I feel the same way.."
Suddenly he pulls me to him and ours lips connect. Warmth instantly fills my body and butterflies fly all over me.
"Vanessa?" I hear someone say.
Oh no.
