Just tell her [R5/Raura fan fiction]

Chapter 10: All I want for christmas

Lucy's POV:

I talked to Ross. He really missed Laura. He told me how he felt and after I had talked to him I think he felt better.

===========================

Ross's POV:

I walked into the living room and gave Rydel her phone.

"Do you feel better." Riker asked.
I nodded.
"So, what do you wanna do?" Rydel asked.
"I don't know. Why are you asking?" I said and looked suspiciously at her.
"No reason, but do you wanna do?" she said.
"I don't know!" I said again.
"We can play hockey!" Riker said and the others nodded.
"Why are you acting so weird?" I said.
"What do you mean?" Rydel said. "We just want to do something with you. Do you wanna play hockey?"
Everyone looked at me.
"You're freaking me out! What are you doing?" I said.
"Fine, Lucy told me we should do something you like to make you happier." she said.
"Ok, we can play hockey." I said and smiled.

===========================

Laura's POV:

I was walking home from school. Vanessa was busy so she couldn't drive me home today. When I had walked for five minuets I met Eric.

"Hi." he said.
I ignored him and continued walking.
"Wait!" he said and ran after me.
"What?" I said.
"Um... how are you?" he said awkwardly.
"I don't wanna talk to you!" I said loudly.
"Why?"
"Have you forgotten what you've done?"
"Well, I'm sorry."
"Sorry for what?"
"Everything I did."
"Why are you apologizing? It doesn't sound like the Eric I've got to know."
"Maybe not, but I've thinking a lot of what you said before."
"What?"
"You know, how you f-feel about... R-Ross."
"That I love him?"
"Yes. Is it true?"
"Of coarse it's true! Why wouldn't it be true?"
"I don't know."
"Does this means you're finally giving up on trying to be my boyfriend?"
"No."
"Then why are you apologizing?"
"Cause I'll maybe have a bigger chance."

I started walking. How could he say that? He obviously just apologized so that I'd like him more. He didn't mean it.
I walked home.
I missed Ross, if he came Eric would bother me less and I'd have someone supporting me.

======================================================

Still Laura's POV:

The weeks passed surprisingly fast. Christmas came and I missed Ross even more. I just wanted to be with him. All christmas songs about how much you miss someone didn't really help either. One important thing with christmas is to be with those you love, but the one I loved with all my heart was far away.

===========================

Ross's POV:

We always sing christmas songs on christmas morning. We have our guitars and we just sing and sing and sing. Usually we can be like that for 2 or 3 hours.
This time it didn't last that long. When we started singing christmas is coming I started thinking of Laura. The lyrics of that song really described my feelings. A tear left my eye and I wiped it away quickly. I tried to continue the song but I couldn't. I left the guitar and ran to my room. I laid down on my bed and buried my face into the pillow.
Someone knocked on the door. I didn't answer.

"Ross, what happened?" someone asked outside the door. It sounded like Rydel.
I tried to be quiet so she would leave but it was hard because I was crying so much.

Right now it felt like the day we left. I just wanted to be with Laura. I wanted to kiss her, hug her and cuddle up in front of a fire with her. Christmas is a day when you should be with your loved ones, but there was one of my loved ones I couldn't be with. She was 800 miles away, and I missed her more then ever.

Rydel opened the door and sat on my bed.
"What happened?" she asked softly.
"It's- it's just... the lyrics.... and L-Laura." I sobbed.
"Aww Rossy, I didn't think about that."
"I wish I could be with her."
"I understand. We all miss her."
She hugged me and wiped away my tears.
"Hey, it's only 1 and a half week until you'll see her."
"I don't wanna wait so long."
"Do you know what I think you should do? Call her! Talk to her. Wish her a merry christmas. You'll feel better."
I nodded and picked up my phone.
"I'll go back to the others."
She ruffled my hair and left.

I called Laura.

"Hi." she said.
"Hi." I said and wiped away the tears.
"Merry christmas!" she said.
"Merry christmas to you too. I really miss you." I said and tried not to cry.
"I miss you too. Christmas is not the same without you." she said and it sounded like she cried too.
"I wish I could be with you." I said with tears streaming down my face.
"Me too."
"How is your christmas?"
"Not good. I miss you more then ever."
"That's exactly how I feel."
"When will you come home?"
"In 1 and a half week."
"Ok, I have to go now."
"Ok. I love you! Don't forget that."
"I love you too! I won't forget. Bye."
"Bye."

I went to the others and sat down on the couch.

"Do you feel better?" Rydel asked.
I nodded.
"Good, do you wanna continue with the songs?"
I shook my head. I didn't wanna risk to play another song that would make me cry.

The others continued with the songs and I watched them. I tried not to focus on the lyrics and looked on the christmas tree. It was decorated with lots of random stuff (all christmas related). Under the tree was lots of presents in all colors. Rydel's presents were all pink.

After the dinner we sat down in front of the fire and exchanged our gifts. Everyone got at least one gift with pink wrapping paper.

I remembered I had to give Laura her gift when I got home. I had bought something I think she'd like. But I had got some help from Rydel. It was hard to choose and I don't really know what girls like.

===========================

Rydel's POV:

Ross fell asleep on the couch. He had been happy during the gift opening and after that he fell asleep.
I never thought my little baby brother would be in this kind of trouble. He really loved Laura. And he would do anything for her, I was sure. I smiled when I saw him sleep. He hugged the sweater he had got from me and smiled a little.

He was so cute when he was sleeping and no one wanted to wake him up. Rocky and Ryland had also fallen asleep. We left them and went to bed.
