Chapter 28: (Mia's POV)

"I should be over all the butterflies! But I'm into you! I'm into you! And baby even on our worst nights! I'm into you! I'm into you!" I screamed on top of my lungs as I danced around the kitchen, pointing at Ryder, with a bowl of popcorn in my hands, and Ryder sitting on the bar stool, watching me. "Let em' wonder how we got this far, cause I don't really need to wonder at all! Yeah after all this time, I'm still into you!" I finished as I hopped on the counter, after washing my hands and putting the bowl aside. I dried my hands and sat directly in front of Ryder, criss-cross applesauce. "My girlfriend is currently screaming to Paramore?" he asked but it came out as more of a statement. "I'm your girlfriend? Last I checked, you never asked me to be?" I narrowed my eyes down at him. 


"Well maybe that was my way of asking you." he shrugged as he pulled me a little closer. "It didn't sound like much of a question." I cocked my head to the side. "I'll cut the bullshit. Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked as he stood up and took my hands in his. "Thought you'd never ask. Take that as a yes." I grinned as I pulled him into a kiss by the collar of his hoodie. He grabbed mine from the waist and pulled me even closer if possible, until the doorbell rang. "Fantastic timing." he groaned as I hopped off and went to answer the door, to see Mrs Grim, my other neighbor there with some cookies. "Hello Mia, nice to see you. It's been a while. I just came by to drop some cookies. I made a few extra while I was making some for my grandchildren." she smiled politely as she handed me the basket.


"Would you like to come in? Mrs Grim?" I asked as I opened the door wider, letting her come in which she didn't argue to. She was an old lady, I believe in her mid 70's. "I don't want to be a bother, you two seemed to be having a good time from the laughter I could hear." she laughed a little herself, making me blush while Ryder nervously scratched the back of his neck. "Do your parents know Ryder's here?" she asked as she looked around the house. She hasn't been here in a while. "N-no. Mrs Grim. Would you mind not telling them? My mom doesn't approve but I love him a lot." I asked pleadingly, pulling out my best puppy face.


"Well look at him doll. He's head over heels for you. Your parents won't find out from me, I swear. I won't be a bother. Have fun." she smiled before she walked back out and into her own home, locking the door on her way out. "Well look at you, doll. You're head over heels for me." I teased Ryder as I ran up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Oh shut up!" he tried to pry my hands off but I just jumped in his arms, making him hold my legs in order to keep me up. "She's the third person to say you're in love with me. My dad, Crystal, and now her." I grinned widely.


"Don't challenge me right now." he narrowed his eyes down to slits, as he put me down on the couch and hovered over me. "Or what?" I challenged cockily. I caught his gaze shift from my eyes to my lips. "Why are you staring at my lips?" I asked teasingly, making his eyes snap up to mine. "Because I wanna kiss them." he muttered before he froze a little, realizing what he said.



"Do you now?" I pulled him in closer by his hoodie, having a taunting smile on my lips as he tried to kiss me but I kept turning me head left and right. He got annoyed and irritated and just grabbed my face, smashing his lips on mine. Time went by and we had been making out for 15 minutes. Yeesh. Before a loud and sudden banging on the door, scared the shit out of us, causing Ryder to roll off and onto the floor. "Son of a bitch." he hissed as he went to see who it was. "We're looking for James Peterson. Do you know where he is?" I heard a man ask in an Australian accent. "The Australian kid?" Ryder asked confused as I walked up to the front door, standing next to him. "Wrong block, buddy. He lives a few towns over." I said as I remembered him leaving our school not too long ago cause he was moving a few towns over. "Do you know him? We're his friends from college. We were supposed to surprise him but that idiot never told us he wasn't living in this town anymore. We've been going door to door in every block." the guy groaned. "He moved a few towns over at the end of the school year. No idea where he lives now. Sorry." I shrugged before they left and Ryder shut the door.


"We're looking for James Peterson." Ryder rolled his eyes as he did an Australian accent, making me laugh a little before giving him a quick kiss.


"No! Come back here! I want more! More kisses!" he grabbed my hand, pulling me back, not letting me take a step towards the stairs that lead up to my room. "Bed please?" I whined and let out a squeal when I felt him pick me up and carry my up before placing me on my bed and plopping down beside me. "Now give me kisses!" he demanded like a little kid begging for candy. "I'm too tired." I closed my eyes as I let out a sigh. "We were making out for 15 minutes straight. Let me rest." I groaned, earning a sigh of frustration from Ryder. He then once again, began peppering kisses all over my face like this morning, making me smile before his lips found mine. Again. After that, we made for another 10 minutes. Yeah, yeah, I know, we're a touchy couple, get over it. After that we both were tired and bored so we decided to take a nap. 


We napped for about two hours before I woke up due to extreme cramps and pain. I love being on my period. I was still very groggy and tired and I felt instantly at ease when I felt Ryder's arms wrap around me before he kissed my forehead. "I heard cuddles help?" he said but it came out more like a question. "I hate having my period. But it's better than getting pregnant so." I muttered before turning to face him, seeing him still sleepily lying there with his eyes closed.


"You're spending your day with me instead of hanging with Ethan and Daniel? You could actually be having fun." I suggested. I felt bad keeping him here for my comfort when he could be out with friends. "I spent almost all summer with them. If I'm left alone with the guys for another minute, I'll go insane." he mumbled, making me laugh. I squished his cheeks together, making him pucker up before I pressed my lips against his, shortly pulling away. "You're crazy." I scoffed. "Only for you." he smiled, pulling me closer before we both drifted off again.


"Awe, look at them, they're so cute."

"They're so in love with each other"

"They're gonna end up together"

"Will you guys shut up?" I heard 4 hushed voices. Grace, Ethan, Daniel and Harper. Once I processed that I wasn't dreaming, my eyes snapped open and I jumped up.

"What the hell are you guys doing here? How did you get in?" I asked as Ryder woke up beside me but kept lying down. "We're your best friends, we know where the key is." Grace shrugged.

"We thought we should hangout since we're all bored. We'll go order pizza. Don't be too long." Daniel stated. "I'll pay, don't worry." I sighed.

"Why doesn't Ryder pay? His wallet has a little something in it." Ethan wriggled his eyebrows. What the hell is that supposed to mean?
