One Of You

Big day

I woke up at 10:30 and saw a text from Carter.
My heart skips a beat.

C-We still on for later?
R-Of course
C-great! Dress casual..oh and is there any way you can come now?

Damn it Carter! I just woke up.
I hop in the shower and get clean.

When I get out, I don't have time to dry my hair, so I put it in a messy bun.
I then apply light makeup.
I wear black high-waisted shorts, a black crop top, a plum colored cardigan, and some plum colored sandals.
I top it off with my glasses, and some perfume.

I tell my foster mother that I'm leaving for the day, and she replies with a simple,"okay."

-------------
I get in my car and type the address carter sent me into my phone.
----------------skip car-ride-------------------------
I pull up to this big house in a nice neighborhood.
Man, I hope I'm in the right place.
I knock on the door,and Carter answers.
"Hey Riley,"he says smiling.
"Hey," I reply.
"Come in,"he says.
I walk into the house and it's quiet, too quiet.
Carter's behind me.
"Hey Carter,"I say.
"Yeah."
"What's going on?Something dosen't feel right. Oh God." I start crying.
"You're gonna rape and kill me.."
I turn around when a bag is placed on my head.
"Carter!!!".of course it's muffled.

He leads me somewhere, and it feels like we're outside. He takes it off and I was right, we are outside.

I look and see Carter standing with a bag in his hand.
I back up slowly and back into something hard.
I see it's Nash.I turn around and see Magcon. ALL of my idols.
Every.
Single.
Frickin.
One of them.
I cover my mouth crying and run back into the house.
Carter walks in with Nash and Hayes.
"Hey,"Carter says reaching out to hug me.
I flinch away but he hugs me anyway.
"Hey,shhh.What's wrong?" he asks softly.
"I-I told you my past.You just scared me half to death. All of you know it. And-andd YOU.-I say pointing at Carter-you saw the fear in my eyes. You went with it. I-I just got the chance to meet my idols, my heroes, and what happened? you guys made me look like some attention whore. Like I want attention like that. Like I made up my life story for looks. You could've told me I was going to meet someone and covered my eyes like a normal person. but NNOOOO. It was too hard. I look like SHIT, because I thought I was just gonna hang out with Carter."
"Hayes,Nash. Can we have a moment?"
I heard a chorus of 'sures'.

"Riley. I'm SO SORRY. You don't even understand how sorry I am. My goal was to introduce you to them and all of us hang out together. Then in the end, I was gonna ask you to be my girlfriend. So, Riley Merchin, will you, do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" says Carter.
"One condition,"I reply.
"What?Anything!" says Carter.
"Don't pull anymore shit like today."
"Baby,it was never my intention."

Then he leans in, and I felt sparks.
"You don't know how long I've waited for that, even though I knew I'd never have a chance," I say.
"How was it?" asks Carter.
"Great."
"Come on,the guys are waiting."
Wow.This is great.
--------------
We go outside, and I say,"Guys I'm sorry about that. What happened just triggered some memories from my past. You guys are my idols and I love you so much, and this day means SO much to me."
They all step in and hug me.
Taylor speaks up,"truth or dare, anyone?".
-------------------------------------------------------
Carter's POV.
"Truth or dare,anyone?". Taylor says.
What is he trying to pull?
He always does this.
Take ALL of my girls.
It's just not happening today.
-------------------------------------------------------

Duh,duh,duuuhhh.
