Now that you know all the characters, it is time to start the story.
Chapter one
It was a clear winter morning. The four were out in the front yard. "Luke," Trisha began. "I am glad we moved here." She said smiling. Luke hugged her. "It's pretty nice isn't it?" he asked. Trisha nodded. They looked at Taylor and Tyler. "You guys wanna come over?" Luke and Trisha asked, as a football game they all wanted to watch was about to come on. The two nodded and they all walked to Luke and Trisha's appartment. Tyler gazed into the telivison. The game had just started. They all chatted threw out the game. "Luke, have you gotten any new idea's for work?" he asked. Luke nodded. "I think that, if we want people to come to us to get lawyers, we need to prove how good of lawyers we actually are." He suggested. Tyler nodded. The two ladies were talking about there work at the hospital. "Tay, do you want to head to the hospital after the game?" Trisha asked, refering to their work. Taylor nodded. "Yeah. I can't wait to see the kids again!" She said extatic. She loved kids, but she has only been married to Tyler for a few months, she wanted to wait awhile before even thinking about starting a family. They all gazed into the telivision, thinking about several diffrent things. As the game went on and touchdowns were made, time went by as slow as a young kid would at a very late hour.
Meanwhile, Derek was sitting on the bench he practicly lived on. He just gazed into the park' trees. Wondering what it would be like to have a real family. A family thats there for each other, who won't leave someone behind, even in the worse of times. A family who isn't afraid to say I love you once in a while. Even if it would seem embaressing at the time.
That's the type of family Derek wanted. He felt a bitter cold breeze rush threw the park, making him shiver from head to toe. He sat up again and looked around, he saw no one in the small park. No one to talk to, no one to play with, no one to call a family. Derek sat on the ground gazing into the sky, gazing into the trees and everything else covering the sky. He smiled, as if he had just had his dream come true. He smiled as if everything was perfet. The branches off of one tree, was blocking the sun just right. Letting only little bits of light shine threw the empty spaces, where the leaves didn't cover. Derek thought it was beautiful. How something so little, can look so amazing.
Time flew by as it was now 3 o'clock in the afternoon. "Oh crap! Trisha we gotta go." Taylor said grabbing her keys. Trisha nodded. Taylor went to her and Tyler's appartment and changed into somthing more, appropiate for a hospital. She then remembered that she was fired. "Ah crud. Trish, I got fired...." Taylor said laughing. Trisha smiled. "Ya know, I totally forgot about that." She said. She waved goodbye and drove to the hospital. When Trisha got there she sat next to a girl named Vanessa. "Hi Vanessa." Trisha said. Vanessa smiled and waved. Vanessa had heart problems, and she didn't like talking all that much as she knew at some point of the conversation someone would bring it up. Though Trisha was the only one she knew wouldn't. "Hi Trisha." Vanessa said in a soft calm voice. Trisha smiled. "I am feeling alot better today, one of the doctors said they may even get a heart for my transplant soon!" Vanessa said excitedly. Trisha smiled again. "Vanessa thats great." She said.
Meanwhile outside a kid was picking on another. "If it isn't alien Shaun!" A kid said shoving Shaun. Shaun looked at the kid, the kid had dakr brown hair, and dark skin. "Zach stop it!" he said angry. Zach walked away mumbling. Shaun walked inside the hospital and went into a room him and his roomate, Serena was there also. As he was walking in, he heared doctors saying another kid went home. Serena saw him walk in.
"Hey! Shaun! Marc went home today!" Serena said. Shaun nodded. Marc was one of there friends. "Do you think he'll come up here sometime to visit?" he asked. Serena shrugged. "Maybe."
Riley then walked in with a cast on her arm. As Riley walked in, the sun set causing the stars and moon to appear in the dark sky. Trisha walked into there room and told them to get ready for bed, they all nodded and did so. Soon all the kids in the hospital were asleep and it was the end of Trisha's shift. She walked to her car and was going to drive away, but Riley was just released from the hospital. Trisha offered Riley to come to her appartment. Riley nodded excitedly. Trisha had Riley climb into the car and they drove back to the apartment .
Derek was fast asleep on his bench by the time they got home. He was dreaming of his old life, his abused life. -"Ann...Do you ever feel like running away from all the fighting?" Derek asked his big sister. Ann nodded. "All the time." -Their parent's were fighting not far from where they were talking and dancing. Their father was screaming harsh words at their mother. But she kept her tears from him yelling at her back. -He realized what she was doing and slapped her. She grimmaced in her pain, her husband happy. -His face read that he was proud, and happy of what he had done. It wasn't the first time he had -done that either. -She then felt like crying. Their father walked away, leaving his wife there in pain. Emotionally and Physically. -"Ann....Promise me that sometime we can run away?" Derek asked crying. Ann nodded. "Of coruse." she said. -Some day Derek....Some day..." Ann whispered as she gazed threw the window.
Derek shot up. He was shivering. "I can't live out here much longer, it's getting to cold.." Derek whispered. He curled up on the bench rocking his self to sleep. "Someday.." He fell asleep whispering. Riley was asleep in the bed Trisha said was now hers. She fell asleep almost imediately. Tyler and Taylor decided to go home, as they were growing tired also. Trisha and Luke went into their room and relaxed for a while. Riley was dreaming about her Mother, she had died and had been living at the hospital. Luke looked at Trisha. "That girl, Riley. She seems nice." He said. Trisha nodded. "She just got released from the Hospital." She said. "What was she in for?" he asked. "Luke you make it seem like it's a crime to be in the hospital!" Trisha said. Luke frowned "Sorry,"He said. Trisha smiled. "She had lung issues, but they were minor and the doctors fixed her problems." She said. Luke nodded. "She's adorable though." Luke said smileing. Trisha nodded and got up and changed into her pajama's and climbed into bed. "I'm going to bed, g'night." Trisha said yawning. Luke nodded and changed also and went to sleep.
Derek fell asleep again, this time sleeping with more ease. The night flew by as the crickets chirped and stars glimmered in the sky. Six in the morning everyone was awake for there own reasons. Riley walked over to the dresser in her room and changed out of her pajama's. Luke and Riley were watching the telivision as they waited for the school bus to come to pick Riley up for school. Luke felt as if he were her father. He had always wanted to be a Father, but he never thought he'd love being one so much.
Derek woke up shortly before the bus arrived for Riley. He was to busy gazing at the bus to realize someone was in the park. Taylor saw Derek and he imediately ran up and danced with her. Taylor was a little shocked, but she smiled and danced with him. "I'm Derek." He said softly. Taylor smiled brightly, "I am Taylor. Do you live out here?" She asked. Derek nodded. "Oh my gosh! I have a spare bedroom in my appartment if you want to live with me and my husband." She said. Derek looked at her and smiled as if she had fuffiled his wish of a family. "Are....Are you serious?!" he asked. Taylor nodded. Derek nodded. "Yes!!" He said excitedly.
Riley hugged Luke. "The bus is here, I gotta go. Bye daddy!" She said and ran out to the bus. Luke smiled. Trisha walked out of the bedroom. "Did I hear wrong or did she call you Daddy?" Trisha asked. Luke gave her a smile. "She called me daddy...." He said. Trisha smiled. She could tell he was very happy, she knew he wanted a family. But she also knew that he knew she wanted to wait. And Riley made him feel like a Father.
Taylor and Derek sat on one of the couches in the house. Derek cuddled up to Taylor. He felt as if he had a family now. "Taylor....Are you and you're husband my family now?" he asked looking up at her. Taylor nodded looking down at him. "Yeah...We are." She said smileing. He looked straight ahead infront of him. "You know Derek, you can call me and my Husband mom and dad if you want." She informed him. Derek smiled. "Thanks....Mom." He said closing his eyes falling asleep.
They all danced in the house, and Trisha and Luke came over and danced aswell. They told them about Riley, and they were introduced to Derek. "Is Riley nice?" Derek asked. Trisha laughed. "Yep! She is quiet though..." She said. Derek nodded. "Cool." Derek went into his room and looked in his woredrobe...He had millions of outfits in it. He changed and walked back into the living room area where everyone was dancing. When Tyler saw Derek and Taylor he freaked out. He didn't want to be a father. He wanted to be a buissness man who was married. That was his dream. He walked over to Taylor. "Taylor, Can I talk to you....Alone." He asked sternly. Taylor nodded. "Sure." She said and she followed him into their bedroom.
He blew his lid. "Taylor who's kid is that and why the hell is he here?" He asked angerly. Taylor crossed her arms. "He is Derek. He was living in the park not far from here. I thought you'd be generous enough to give the poor kid a home and try being a father!" She said. He wagged his finger. "Tay I don't want to be a Father. I want to be a big buissness man who's married." He said. Taylor looked away from him. "Right I am just a little bonus for you're buisness dream." She said. He was furious. "Taylor I didn't mean for it to come out like that!" he said. Taylor put her arms at her side. "Yes you did Tyler. If you didn't you wouldn't of even of said it." She said. Tyler laid his hands on his hips. "You're right Tay. I did mean it." He said. Taylor shook her head. Tyler walked out of the room. Taylor opened her dresser and changed, she didn't want to wear the outfit her husband got her, who only wanted to marry her to look good.
Taylor laid on her bed and Derek came in and sat on the bed to talk to Taylor. "You and Dad....You were fighting weren't you?" he asked. Taylor nodded. "I'm sorry Derek. He...He only married me to look good for buissness." She said. Derek nodded. " I'm sorry Mom." He said. Taylor shook her head. "Ah who needs him anyway?" she said smileing. Derek smiled and laughed. Everyone -Exept Tyler- were watching the telivision in the livingroom. Trisha looked at her watch. She had to get ready to go to the hospital soon. "I gotta go get ready to go to work. I am taking Riley so she can see her friends again, do you wanna come Derek?" Trisha asked as it was almost 3 o'clock. Derek shook his head, "No thanks.". Trisha went to her appartment and changed and drove her and Riley to the hopsital.
When they arrived Rilley imediately ran to her friends. Trisha heard crying in the bathroom. When Trisha walked in she saw Vanessa crying. Vanessa was looking at a box crying. The box was filled with her belongings. "What's wrong Vanessa?" Trisha asked bending down on her knee. "I was suposed to go home today...But the doctors said I have gotten even more sick then I was before." She said, coughing inbetween words.
Trisha tried to comfort her but Vanessa shruged her off. "Leave me alone!" Vanessa yelled running out of the bathroom. Trisha frowned, she was only trying to comfort her. Trisha walked out of the room and walked into the fenced area the kids played in. Riley saw Shaun. "Shaun oh my gosh!! Hi!!" She said hugging him. He smiled. "Are you feeling better?" He asked. Riley nodded. Serena came running up. "Riley!" She gasped.
Shaun walked to the fenced area also as Riley and Serena hugged. "Serena I got news!" Riley exclaimed. Serena gave her a small smile. "I do too." She said, not as happy. "I have a mommy and a daddy again!" Riley whispered into Serena's ear. She smiled, she was glad Riley was happy. Serena looked at Riley and then whispered into her ear. "My parents died....And it turns out my lungs are now even more damaged." Serena whispered. "But, why let that bother me right?" She said smileing. Riey gave her a smile. She couldn't believe she could stay so positive. As their whispering was done, they heard noises coming from outside. The ran outside to see what was going on. The sun was setting and shaun and Zach were fighting. Riley gasped. Zach released Shaun and he fell to the ground. Riley ran over to him. "I'm alright." He said. As they were talking, Trisha got an unexpected surprise.
Lora, her mother, was in her face yelling at her. "You! I can't believe you! " She yellled. "You date that stupid boy, you blame me for abusement, and now you're tellling me you're father is alive? How the hell would you expect me to believe that?" She said waving her hands around. "He is alive. So is Jenna too. And they are at you're place or Luke's old place, probabably talking about the recent death. Raine's death." Trisha said tears filling her eyes. Lora walked away, she didn't want to even look at Trisha anymore. Trisha looked at her watch, her shift was over. She waved goodbye and told Riley it was time to go. They climbed into the car and drove away.
Riley looked in the sky. She saw a shooting star. She closed her eyes and whispered her wish. "I wish Serena will get better." She whispered and opened her eyes. They arrived at the appartments not to much before 9 o'clock. Riley was trying with all her might to sleep, but she just couldn't, not after the news her friend had given her. She hopped out of and walked over to her mirror and messed around with her hair until she was completely happy with it. When Riley was done, she looked in the mirror satisfied. She walked back to her bed and climbed in. In hopes the restless night would be over soon.
Trisha was still awake in her and Luke's room. She heard Luke whispering somthing in his sleep. She listened for a while, trying to figure out what he was saying. She closed her eyes smileing. She had figured out what he was saying, weather it was just him rambling in his sleep, or true words he wanted to say, she loved every word. He said: "Marry Me."
Derek was dreaming of how Public school was going to e. Taylor enrolled him earlier that day. He was going to board the same bus as Riley now. He could hardly wait. Riley woke up at six in the morning, as usual. She walked to her dresser and changed into her outfit for the day. She took a deep breath before exiting the room. As everyone was getting up, Trisha was throwing up in the bathroom. "Oh no..." she said. She had a feeling of what was happening.
Chapter two
Trisha stood in the bathroom for a few minutes. She wasn't sure if she wanted to believe what was going on. She wanted a family someday yes, but she wasn't even engaged to be married! She wanted to settle down first...She walked into the living room. "Riley, we gotta go. I am taking you and Derek to school today." Trisha said. Riley nodded and got her backpack from her room. They went to the appartment next door and picked up Derek and they sped off to the school.
Luke was sitting on the couch, waiting for Trisha to get back. He was thinking about only one thing, the question he wanted to ask Trisha. He wanted to marry her. He picked up the phone and called Taylor. "Taylor? It's me. I wanted to know if you coud watch Riley tonight..."Luke said. Taylor agreed to. They hung up and Luke had the night set. Trisha had just got back from taking the kids to school. She walked into the appartment. Luke stood up and gave her a smile. "Guess what!" he said. Trisha looked at him confused. "What..." Luke looked like as if he were going to jump up and down. "I am going to take you to you're favorite resturant!" he said. Trisha smiled. "But Luke, who's going to watch Riley?" she asked. "Taylor said she'd watch her." He said. Trisha smiled and gave him a hug. Trisha walked into the bathroom. She was pacing around the room. Waiting for her pregnacy test results. After a few minutes passed she looked at it. "Oh...My gosh!" She said, excitedly. She was pregnat. She never thought she would be so happy to know such a thing. She walked out of the bathroom happy. Luke was sitting on the couch, gazing into the telivision. Trisha sat next to him and watched as well.
Meanwhile Taylor and Tyler were fighting. "Taylor, I have told you. I don't want to be a father!" He yelled. Taylor threw her hands up. "Ty...I know that. Heck you don't like being married to me that much! You just like it for the popularity for you're buissness." She said. He crossed his arms. "Yes...Taylor that is exactly it." He said. He threw off his wedding band and walked out. Taylor just looked at the wedding band lying on the floor. Taylor sat at her vanity. She wanted to change her look. She applied diffrent make-up and was trying diffrent hair styles. Taylor looked in the mirror when she was done, satisfied with her look. She had dyed her hair and cliped it up. She had also put on earings she hadn't worn in a long time. And she applied make-up, making her face more noticable.
Tyler was sitting in the small park not too far from the appartments. He was furious with Taylor. He didn't love her, he wanted to end their mairrage at that minute. He was the type of person who didn't want to settle down and have a family, he wanted to live his life freely. Being with who he wanted, when he wanted.
Taylor walked over to Trisha and Luke's appartment. She knocked on the door. Trisha walked out and barely reconized her. "Holy cow Tay! You look diffrent." She said. Taylor laughed. "Yeah...I was wondering...If I could stay over for a little while?" she asked. Trisha smiled. "Of coruse." She said, as they walked inside. Trisha gazed into the telivision. She figured now wasn't the time to tell Luke she was pregnat. Though she thought about how she should tell him. She didn't just want to belt it out in mid-conversation. She thought about it as time went by, time crawling closer and closer to her and Luke's date. Luke looked at Taylor as she sat down. He didn't reconize her. "Tay?" he asked. Taylor looked at him. "Geez! You look....Diffrent!" He said. Taylor smiled. "Thanks." She said. She was a little distracted, she was thinking about Tyler. Although he didn't, she loved him. She knew he'd end the mairrage some time, but deep down, she wanted to be with him forever. The fact was, she missed him. She and him argued some yes, but what couple doesn't? She had never seen him so mad before. She shook her head a little, as if she were shaking the thoughts away. She focused her attention of spending time with her friends, her true family.
As time passed, three o'clock came. Derek and Riley walked off the school bus. They waked into one of the apartments. "We're home!" Riley called out, setting her homework down. The three adults waved. "Riley, Taylor is going to watch you guys tonight, me and Luke are going out tonight." Trisha said smiling. Riley nodded and smiled as well. She reconized Taylor imediately, unlike the two adults. "Hi Taylor." Riley said. Derek walked in, and saw Taylor. "Mom! You look diffrent!" He said surprised. Derek and Riley were playing on the floor with toys Riley had gotten. They had made a bond in school as the day went on. They were the best of friends. They spent every waking minute together.....Or at least very close to ever minute.
Tyler was kicking one of the trees in the park. He had figured out what he needed to do. End his and Taylor's relationship. He stormed over to Luke and Trisha's appartment, barging in and yelling at Taylor. "I have decided what I am going to do. I am demanding a devorce!" He screamed. Luke gave him a glare. Trisha walked over to Derek and Riley. "Can you guys go play outside for a little while?" she asked smiling. The two nodded and they walked outside. "Tyler...Go ahead. Devorce me. But, You are not going to keep that appartment, you will be the one moving out." She said almost in tears. Tyler laughed. "As if I hadn't already figured that out!" He said between his laughs. He walked out and continued walking, leaving the appartment complex for good.
Soon enough, Night had fallen and Trisha was getting ready to leave with Luke. Derek and Riley were inside playing and Taylor was on the couch. Luke and Trisha waved goodbye to the three and they left. When they arrived they were imediately seated. They talked until their waiter got there. "Hi! I am Le! I will be you're server...What can I get you two?" he asked as if he were tired of saying that. Trisha smiled, "I'll have spagetti please." She said. "I'll have Salmon." Luke said. The waiter nodded as he wrote it down. "Alright then! Be back later." He said and walked away.
they held each others hand as they waited. Luke was nervous, but he kept it well hidden, as Trisha couldn't tell. Luke couldn't help staring at her the whole night. She looked so beautiful. Nothing could make him happier but to see her happy. Every time her looked at her she was wearing a smile, she had always been like that. Never a doubt in her mind. As their meals were served they talked over several things, they talked about Riley, and Derek, and Taylor and their past. Everything. "Luke,do you miss you're parents?" Trisha asked Luke. He nodded. "Yeah..." he said. Trisha nodded smiling. "I remember how Raine could make anyonr laugh, and in the worst of times, how she could lighten up the day." Trisha said. Luke nodded agreeing.
Calvin, Trisha's father walked in. He looked over at their table. "Is that Luke and Trisha?" he asked himself. He then shook his head. "Nah.." he said outloud. After they were done eating they walked outside. "May I have this dance?" Luke asked bowing a bit. Trisha smiled and nodded. And they danced with the stars glimering above them and the fountain's water swishing around in the wind. Trisha rested her head on Luke's shoulder. "Now's my chance to tell him." She thought to herself. "Luke..." She said. Luke looked at her. "Luke...I am...I am pregnat." She said, a little hesitant, worried about what his answer maybe. Luke smiled. "Are you serious?" he asked. Trisha nodded smiling as well. "That's great!" He said extatic. Trisha's smile grew.
Luke bent down on one knee. "Trisha, ever sense I met you I knew I'd want to spend my life with you.." He began. Trisha looked at him. "Trisha Cornello.....Will you marr me?" he asked showing her a ring. Trisha felt like jumping in the air. She nodded as he slipped the ring on her finger. "Yes!" She said hugging him. She wanted to cry, not of sadness, but of joy. She was finally going to have her dream fufilled. Being married to the one she loved. She and Luke stayed out by the fountain for a while before paying the bill and heading home.
When the two decided to go, they wore smiles the whole time. Everyone looked at them, wondering what happend. They could hear a couple talking. "Wonder what happend?" the husband said. The wife slapped his shoulder. "Harry! Don't butt into other people's private life! But I do think the young man proposed to the girl..." she said. The husband rolled his eyes.
As they arrived home eveyone else was asleep. Taylor was asleep on the couch peacfully. Derek was asleep in the lounge chair, mumbling words as he slept. Riley was asleep in her bed peacefully as well. Unaware that one, she was going to be a big sister, and two, Trisha and Luke were going to get married. The night was a quiet one, no one woke up unexpectedly, exept for Trisha darting toward the bathroom several times during the night.
Everyone was awake in the house around 4:30 AM. Riley gave Trisha a hug after reciving the news about the baby and the wedding. Trisha's stomach was already a little bigger. Riley was happy threw out the whole day. Riley walked into her room and looked in her mirror. She dyed her hair and styled it. "Okay now I'll leave it alone!" Riley said finishing it up. She walked out nearly scaring everyone out of their skin of her new hair-style.
"Riley...Why is you're hair redish purple?" Trisha and Taylor said in union. "Well...Taylor changed her hair, and I was dieing to see how it looked!" Riley said quickly. Trisha nodded and they continued on their day. Luke looked at Riley's hair. "Hm...I kinda like it." he said reciving a glare from Trisha. He gave her a cheeky smile and continued watching the telivision. Derke couldn't help but to stare at Riley. It wasn't a bad stare, but he wasn't sure why he was. He felt as if he could trust her with anything, which gave him a feeling he hadn't felt in a long time.
Riley and Derek walked over to their toybox and started playing with their toys. They could hear their parents talking about several things, but one thing that stood out the most. "When do you think we should move?" Luke asked taylor and Trisha. The tow women shrugged. Riley looked at Derek and sighed. "Ri, I don't think it is a bad thing we are moving, maybe we will have a bigger house and we can all live together!" He said excitedly. Riley gave him a small smile, unsure if he was right. She was terrified of moving. She dreaded it ever sence the first time she moved from her family to the hospital.
-Riley was in her house, being yelled at by her mother. "Riley Cornetto! Get into you're room now!" She yelled at her. Riley walked into her room and rolled her eyes, tears coming out of them. "I never do anything...I was just playing the piano..." Riley whispered sitting on her bed. -She looked at her blank wall. She lived in a small room, made with only one window and a door. Furnished with only a bed that was barely stable. She gazed out her window. Thinking of all the possibilities of a better family. Of a family who didn't mind if their children wanted to play, or have fun. As she gazed out the small window, she smiled. She knew some day she would get out of that house. That she would be rid of that family. Her mother swung the door open and looked at her daughter. Riley got off her bed and stood in front of her mother. -Riley was trembling in her tears. She went to give her mother a hug, to tell her she was sorry. But her mother denied it. "Listen you twerp. I don't plan on having you here that much longer so don't think about gettin' all lovey dovey on me!" she sternly said to her. Riley walked out of her room and saw her father over by the piano. -The saddened child looked at her father and went to gave him a hug. He backed away. "Look, I never wanted to be a father. You're a good kid Riley, I just can't be a father." He said walking the other way. Riley started to walk to her room but her mother stopped her dead in her tracks.
-Her mother swung her hand across her face. Riley stood there, trying not to show any pain. Her mother glanced at her arm. "If you were more careful, you wouldn't need that mechanical arm." She said walking away. Riley darted to her room tears gone as bruises were developing on her face. -She sat on her bed, she felt dizzy. She looked at the blank wall. She could hear voices from the other room. Her mother and father yelling at each other. She heared her mother yelling at him saying that the social workers were already coming to get Riley. -Riley tilted her head and smiled. "Maybe I'll get a real family..." She whispered to herself. She was getting more and more dizzy. She laid back on her bed, trying not to fall into a deep sleep.
"A real family..." Riley whispered, out of her past. She looked at Trisha and Luke and smiled. "Riley, Derek, go get ready for school the bus will be here soon." Luke said walking over to them. They nodded and went to get ready. Derek sat in the bus, gazing at the blue seats and the windows of the bus. This was his first time going to school. "Wow..." He said amazed. Riley sat next to him. "Oh you think THIS is cool?" she asked looking at what to her, was the bus to boredom. Derek nodded excitedly as the bus drove off to the school.
Trisha looked at the mirror. She shook her head. "I look way to fancy..." She said gazing at the hair accessories in the bathroom. Trisha let her hair down and looked at it. It was darker then she had thought. Her long hair swayed to one side covering one eye. She walked back into the living room, waiting for their reactions. Luke looked at Trisha. "Okay who's next to change their look?" he asked smiling. Trisha smiled and sat next to him and Taylor. They nodded in approvement of her new look. She smiled and gazed into the telivision as the other two were.
Trisha stood up, as her cell phone was ringing in her pocket. She walked away from the couch before answering. "Hello?" she said into the phone. A man's voice replied. "Hello, you are Trisha correct?" he asked. "Yes I am. Who's this?" she asked walking around a little. The man sighed. "I am Jonathan, I work at the hospital." He said. Trisha nodded. "Oh! Hi. What's up?" she asked slyly. Jonathan gave a chuckle. "Trisha, at you're last check up sence you've been pregnat, we found out somthing about you're baby." He said quietly. Trisha got a worried look on her face. "Jon...Tell me what you found out." she demanded. The man sighed again and began. "Well...You're baby is ill. The baby won't live long after being born." He said saddened. Trisha gasped and shook her head. "Jon you must be joking!" She insisted. "I'm sorry." He said. Trisha shook her head. "Jon...I got to go. I'll talk to you later." She said hanging up. She felt tears stream down her face.
Luke saw Trisha crying. "Trisha...What's wrong?" he asked putting his arm around he shoulder. She looked at him and shook her head. "Our baby...Our baby is going to die shortly after he is born." She said wiping her tears away. Luke gave her a hug. She clasped her hand on the back of his neck and hugged him. She hated the thought of having her baby, only for him-or her- to be wisked away from her. "Luke...I am so glad we have Riley...She is the best daughter ever." She said looking into his eyes. Luke nodded. "Indeed she is." He said smiling. Taylor walked over. "Are you guys okay?" she asked, over hearing their conversation. "I kind of heared you two talking...I'm sorry." She said. Trisha gave her a hug. "Oh Tay don't worry about it. I've had a child all along." She said, talking about Riley.
It was around one in the afternoon. "Ri! I didn't know school had half days!" he said extatic. Riley nodded. "You didn't have them in you're old school?" she asked. He shook his head. "Actually...Last time I was in school was before I ran away. I very rarely could go anyways. I couldn't take the bus and my parents wouldn't drive me." He said, shivering in Winter's wind. "Let's go inside. We should get packing for the move." Riley said walking inside. Derek nodded and followed. Riley gave Trisha a big hug. "Hi mommy!" she said smiling. "How's the baby?" she asked. Trisha frowned. "Riley there is somthing I need to tell you." She said. They walked over to the couch and sat down to talk.
"Riley...Do you remember Jon from the hospital?" Trisha asked. Riley nodded. "Yeah...He made my mechanical arm!" she said, raising her pink arm. Trisha smiled and nodded. "Yep...Well...He called me today telling me about the baby." She began. "Riley...The baby is sick. When he, or she is born...They are going to die..." She said trying not to cry. Riley was also trying not to. "Oh...Well at least we have each other!" she said. Trisha nodded. "Riley you're so optimistic." She said smiling. Riley nodded. "Thanks Mom." she said. "I am going to go into my room and pack...I'll bee in my room!" she said skipping to her room. Taylor looked around the house. "Derek?" She asked threw out the house. She looked outside and in her appartment. He was no where. Nor was Riley. "Trisha! Luke! The kids are missing!" Taylor said worriedly. Trisha shook her head. She felt as if her whole life, her whole family was dissapearing right in front of her.
Chapter 3
Trisha had changed into a sweater and purple pants, as it was cold outside and she had planned to look for the kids. She then felt a sharp bit of pain. She was having her baby. Taylor and Luke where freaking out, practically running threw the house, yelling what to do. "Guys! Just stop screaming!" Trisha said in pain. The two nodded, still worried about what to do. Taylor was catching her breath from screaming. She had never gone threw this and had no idea what to think, what to do, what to say or anything. She calmed herself down after a while, but just as she was calm, the baby was born.
Trisha looked at the baby after she had slipped a diaper on her. "It's a girl Luke!" she said exctatic. Luke smiled. Trisha then saw the young girls breath getting heavier and heavier. She was slowly dying in Trisha's arms. "This can't happen..." Trisha cried as she shook her head. She looked into the babies wry eyes and had thought up a name for her. "Miracle..." She whispered as the baby then died. Trisha shook her head as she held the now dead baby. They had a funeral for Miracle. A sad one at that, the only ones who attended were Trisha, Luke, and Taylor.
The three were by Miracle's grave crying. Taylor looked at Trisha then Luke. "We need to find them...I can't stop thinking about them." She said with tears in her eyes still. Luke nodded, eye's red from him rubbing them. "There is a police station by our new house, I think we should head to the new house and I will go to the police station and file a missing report as soon as I can." He said. The two women nodded. Trisha walke over to Luke and gave him a hug.
She was shaking from the fact she was scared that her daughters were gone from her. That she couldn't hold them in her arms and laugh with them til the day ended. "Luke... I miss them." She said. "I miss Riley and Derek...I miss Miracle...I miss Raine..." She said looking at him. Luke saw tears were again forming in her eyes. "Don't worry...We will see Riley and Derek soon...I promise."
He said.
Meanwhile...A little girl was sitting in a small room vancant with empty beds exept for her brothers. Her dark shadowy blue eyes dodged the rooms walls. "Twenty days...." She whispered. "Twenty days sence we were kidnapped." She whispered again. Her brother looked at her. "Listen we aren't going to be found in here! That guy won't let them so give it up!" he yelled at her. "It's not worth it Tess..." He said looking at the wall. Tessa, the girl nodded. "I know Lou..." she whispered. The girl had never spoken above a whisper sence they were kidnapped by the retched man.
The man's pants were covered with blood, as well as his shoe. His face read that he was satisfied with what he just did. He had killed a family...A family who did no harm to anyone. He had a wretched smile that just would not dissapear his eerie face. "You two! Get into that room now!" The man said holding somthing in his pocket. Riley and Derek stood up and walked over to the rooom quickly to see Tessa and the boy, Louis from before. Tessa hopped off her bed. "You must be the new kids....These are you're beds..." She whispered. Riley and Derek nodded...Scared to death of what will...Or may happen to them.
"Um, why are you two here?" Riley asked Tessa scared. Tessa looked at her brother. "We have been here for twenty days...Trying to get out of here." She whispered. "I am Tessa. That boy is my brother...He is reliving everything." She said, her facial expression not changing from what it was. The girls make up matched her shadowy eyes. And her lip was peirced with a loop ring. "I'm Riley..." Riley said uneasy. "Just relax...He won't do anything to us..." She whispered. Riley nodded and looked around the room. All that was there were four beds and a small locker filled with clothes. "You should change, He has uniforms for us...We need to change also..." Tessa whispered looking at the locker. Riley nodded and walked over to it.
The two girls had to wear a tank top and shorts. They changed and sat on their beds. Freazing in the bitter cold room. The boys however, had a more appropiate outfit. They wore a black short sleave hoodie with boots and black pants with wristbands. Louis sat silently on his bed. Not making a peep.
The adults were gazing into the telivision, listening to the news anchors words. "And now for our top story: Children Kidnapping." the woman said which imediately got the three's attention. "There is a man who escaped from jail to see his family, only to find them dead. He is now kidnapping kids and showing those families his pain. Please keep you're kids safe as we try to catch this terrible man." she said. A picture flared on the screen showing a angry man. "This is the man. If you see him please call 1-000-44412 thank you and now here is sports with Ty Young." The woman said directing the news to go to the sports section. Taylor was crying. "No..." she whispered. She reconized him. "That can't be..." she said. Luke looked at her. "Tay, are you alright?" he asked. she shook her head. "That's...That's my ex-boyfriend before I met Tyler...We used to be the best of friends, even after we broke up. Until he was aressted. He told me not to visit anymore. That he would be out soon enough. I can't believe he is doing this..." She said shaking in her seat.
Taylor changed her appearance again. "If I see him...Maybe he will reconize me if I look like how I did when he last saw me..." She said after changing her hair. She walked into her bedroom and changed into somthing to go outside in to snoop him out. Taylor sat on a bench in a small park by their house. Wondering where to start looking for the man. "Where would he be? Ahg I don't know!" She said looking around. She felt a cold breaze fly within the air brushing againts Taylor's shoulders. She stood up back faced to the fence door.
As the night fell opon the park, Taylor turned around to leave. Only to be stopped by the wanted man. "R...Rien..." She said looking at him. The man gave her a cheeky smile. "Still remember me huh?" he said a little edgy. Taylor gave him a small smile. "Rien...I have a son...And my friend has a daughter...They are missing I need you to...To help me." She said still looking at his appearance. His smile went away. "Hm...Did the girl have purple hair? Pink arm?" he asked. Taylor nodded. "They aren't missing...They are kidnaped." He said with a evil grin. Taylor backed up from Rien a little. "Rien...Do you know where they are?" she asked him sort of scared. Rien nodded with the evil smile still on his face. She looked at the fence door and then at him. He was putting his hand in his pocket. He took out a gun. She looked at it and then at him. His smile got bigger and bigger as he steped closer and closer to her. Taylor backed up and made her way to the fence door and lead him out, being able to call for Trisha or Luke's help.
Meanwhile Louis was on the floor, dead. "He's dead..." Riley said quietly. Tessa nodded. "He was sick...There was nothing we could of done." She said, not showing a bit of emotion. Riley looked at Derek. He was thinking about Taylor. Riley rested her head againts the wall. She wanted to see Trisha and Luke, and maybe even the baby. After all, she hadn't been told Miracle died yet.
As Taylor was about to yell for help, Tyler came running up. He stood in front of Taylor blocking Rien's way of shooting her. "You are not going to shoot her!" He said in defence. Taylor smiled. She saw the man she loved. "Ty..." She whispered. Rien cocked the gun. "Listen old man....I'll kill anyone in my way...Even you!" he said walking closer. Tyler punched Rien in his gut and knocked him to the ground, causing the gun to fly in the air. Tyler caught it, careful not to trigger it. He took out the bullets and threw it by Rien. Taylor looked at him and leaped into his arms. "Ty...Thank you." She said almost in tears. Tyler looked at her. "Tay...I was a huge jerk. I was wrong. I didn't marry you because it looked good for my buissness. I married you because I love you...And I don't want to get a devorce." He said smiling. Taylor returned his smile and nodded. "Good...But right now we need to find Derek and Riley...He kidnaped them." She said. They walked around and soon ended up at a small house. They walked in to see three kids. "Derek!! Riley!" Taylor said hugging them.
"Mom!" Derek shrieked. Taylor smiled. She was glad to see Derek again. Riley smiled. "Can we please go home now?" she asked shivering in the cold room. Taylor nodded and the four walked out of the room and walked back to the house. Tessa waved goodbye, and suddenly vanished. After reuniting with everyone, the two kids went to their room. "Riley...When we were in that room....Who were you talking to?" he asked. Riley was confused. "Um...The other girl there...Tessa..." She said. Derek was now confused. "Riley...We were the only ones in there....." He said. Riley shook her head. "I must've imagined them then..." She said sitting on her bed. Derek shrugged. "Oh well...We should get to sleep." He said. And with that they did.
Taylor and Tyler were on one sofa, sitting in each other's arms. Happy once again. "Ty Derek has been asking about you...He wants you to be his father." Taylor said looking at Tyler. Tyler smiled. "Well that's great! Because I want to be a father." He said. taylor smiled and rested her head on his shoulder. "And we are all one big happy family again." Trisha said looking at Luke. He let out a little laugh. "Yep! The kids are back...Ty and Tay are back together...That creep is gone...What else could we ask for?" he asked. trisha smiled and looked out the nearby window. She smiled as she remembered how Raine could make anyone smile.
She could make anyone smile. Even in the worst of times. Trisha was like a sister to Raine. She missed her so much. Trisha smiled as she closed her eyes for a second. They all ended the night and went to their bedrooms and went to sleep. The stars glistened in the sky, shineing light down on their house. Some of them felt that the stars told stories. Stories about their lives. Their journies and events all written down on all the stars in the sky.
Time ticked away as everyone was asleep in their beds. No one was awake. Not one unexpected event happening. Just peaceful sleep through out the house. As the sun rose from the nights sky, Everyone was awake, doing somthing in the house.
Tyler was in his car. He sped off to the Shun-Wo-Bar. He went there alot to think. He also said he'd meet someone their as well. He ordered a drink and waited for the person to show up. He glanced around the room. Couples making out on couches and groups in hot tubs. The DJ argueing with his boss. The candles that were giving off light were dim on the bar table. Tyler sat on one of the couches and waited longer. He saw someone walk in. They walked over and he stood up smiling.
"Hey cutie!" She said with a french accent. Tyler gave out a chuckle. "Diana! It's been a while." He said. "Why did you want to meet me here?" he asked. She smiled and turned to the DJ's argument. "I heard you were going to leave Taylor." She said. She was his highschool girlfriend, but he had left her for Taylor. "Di...I was going to...But..."He began. "But?" Diana asked. Tyler looked at her. "I'm not leaving her." He said. Diana looked at him and shook her head. "You promised me!" She said walking farther into the room. He stood up and walked over to her. She laid her hand on his cheek. "You promised you'd come to me if you left Taylor..." She whispered. Tyler shook her hand off. "Diana...That was a long time ago. I am with her, and we have adopted a son." He said proud that he was a husband and a father. Diana had her hand at her side. "I see." She said walking away, then turning around.
She then grabbed Tyler and kissed him, leaving him shocked. "Bye Tyler." She said walking out of the bar. Tyler watched the door close. He felt guilty. He didn't want to be with Diana and he surely didn't want to cheat on Taylor. He left the bar and drove home. He got out of the car and ran to Taylor and hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry." Tyler said as he hugged Taylor. Taylor looked at him. "What are you sorry for?" she asked. He faced the floor in guilt. "I saw Diana today." He said. "But I told her I am still with you and I swear I didn't do anything with her." He said senserily. Taylor nodded and hugged him again. "Ty, don't worry. You can be friends with you're ex-girlfriend." She said. He smiled. Trisha however, was upstairs talking to Riley.
"Mom...Where is the baby?" Riley asked. Trisha frowned. "Ri...The baby was sick. And well, she didn't live for long hunny." She said almost crying. Riley looked at the floor and then at Trisha. "This stinks!" She said almost yelling. "I really wanted to be a big sister." She said crying. Trisha hugged Riley. "Riley I am really sorry. I was sad too." She said. Riley nodded. "But, I may be a big sister someday...Right?" she asked. Trisha nodded. "Yeah...You will." She said. They walked down stairs to and sat and talked with everyone else. Taylor smiled. "Hey you two! Do you have a date set for you're wedding?" She asked Trisha and Luke. They looked at each other and shruged. Taylor laughed. Trisha smiled and Luke spoke. "How about next weekend in the park not far from here?" he asked Trisha. Trisha nodded and Taylor clapped her hands together. "Great! Now I can plan a wedding!" She said in excitement. The others laughed.
Riley sat in a sitting area far from the adults silently. Derek was on the other end of the couch. "Hey Derek...Did you know it is my birthday today?" she asked him. He shook his head. "How old are you now?" he asked her. She smiled. "I am turning tweleve...How about you." "I'm turning tweleve too." he said smiling. "Awesome! When is you're birthday?" she asked laughing. Derek chuckled. "Next week." Derek walked over to the piano an started playing. Riley walked over hearing the soft melody. She beggan singing words that came to her as she heared the music. "Oooh. Sittin' here..." She began. "Singing and playing." Derek sang. Riley smiled and continued the song. "Time tickin' by, making us wish time would go just a bit slower. Oooh. Because everything is seeping lower and lower. Down into the darkness. Just wishin' you'd be here with me for all enternity."
"So stay...Here with me. And complete all dreams." she sang to the melody. Derek listened to every words. Adoring every verse. Loving her singing voice. He looked at her holding the kareoke microphone and singing her thoughts of the song. "Stay here by my side and it will make it be all it really seems. Just be near by. Just so I can lie my head on a careing shoulder." She sang and looked at Derek. His fingers hitting the keys of the piano. The adults were secretly listening without them knowing.
"Damn she can sing!" Tyler said. Taylor gave him a look. He sighed. "Sorry I meant to say darn." He said rolling his eyes. Taylor let out a little laugh. "She can sing though. And Derek is playing the piano pretty good." She said. Trisha nodded in agreement. Luke was listening to the words as Riley sang. Luke was interested in the song. Riley continued to sing until Derek stopped playing the sweet melody and looked at Riley. She put the microphone in it's slot and looked at Derek. "Did I sound bad?" she asked. He shook his head quickly. "No no! You sang great!" he said. Riley blushed. "Heh...Thanks." She said sort of embaressed. She had wanted to be a singer. But she was only a kid, how could she get a record deal as young kid she is?
Riley hugged Derek. "Thank you for the compliment." She said. He smiled. He saw the adults clapping from the performance. "Hey we even have fans!" He said pointing to their parents. Riley blushed even more. She walked over to them. "So, did you like it?" Riley asked. Trisha nodded. "It was very good. I really liked it!" Trisha said enthused with the song. Riley smiled. "Thanks!" She said smiling. Riley looked out the window. "I can't believe I am tweleve. " She said turning to the adults. The four adults smiled. "And we are having a HUGE party!" Trisha said smiling. Riley smiled. She glanced at the clock, it was around five-thirty at night. Taylor and Trisha looked at each other and walked into the kitchen. "Okay we gotta get the cake ready!" Taylor said excitedly. They started baking as the other two adults showed Riley her presents.
Taylor was sitting at the dinning room table, talking to Trisha as she made the cake. "Trisha...How did you meet Luke?" she asked. Trisha smiled. "Well, we were teenagers. We lived in a appartment complex together. My father and his mother faked his death, long story about that. We started out as best friends, but our relationship grew." She sighed. "On our first date...I was shot, but luckily I was okay. My mom was aressted for abusement and I lived with a nurse that helped me be okay." she said. "Alot happend within a mere week. Raine, Luke's sister, was sick. She had been, but we had forgotten, and she died. The only thing I regret is we weren't able to say goodbye. Me and Luke got in a arguement and didn't realize that his sister was at her death bed." Trisha said shaking her head a little. Taylor was trying her hardest not to cry, as she listened to the story.
"On the day of Raine's funeral, Luke asked me that when we move out, that we would move into a appartment together. He then started working for Tyler and we met you two. And that basicly leads us up to here." She finished sliding the cake into the oven. Taylor stood up and looked at her. "Wow." She said simply. Trisha gave a little chuckle. "Is that a good wow or a bad wow?" she asked smiling ear to ear. Talor wiped her tears away. "A good one...You guys have such a romantic backround...Me and Tyler met in a bar. You're story is far more exciting."
After a few minutes, the cake was done. Trisha slid it out of the oven and decorated it. She then called everyone into the room. "Happy birthday Riley!" They all said. Riley looked at the cake. "Wow! It looks great!" She said. "And after cake, you can open the presents I showed ya." Luke said. Tyler and Luke served the cake to everyone and everyone shared stories and laughs at the table. Smiles surounded the table. Wether they were smiling about Riley's singing, the upcoming wedding, the lives they have lived, or the things in life that make it meaningful. The things that make the world seem bright.
The small words a kid could say to make a entire room of unhappy people feel as if everything was complete. Making everything simpler then it really is, even though the worse was to come. Soon. Riley driffted off to sleep, only to remember a thing of the past.
-"Ri, why do you have bruises on you're face?" Derek asked sitting on a swing. Riley sat down. "Well, I um...Fell." She lied. Derek nodded and they started to rock back and forth on the swings. -Riley pumped her legs going higher and higher into the sky. Gazing into its beauty. She saw a few clouds giving off shade, as the sun beamed it's rays down onto the earth. -Derek was also pumping his legs, seeing who would go higher. Once they got to the appropiate hight, they jumped off landing on their knees.
-They stood up and gave each other a hug. "Ri, how did you get you're mechanical arm?" Derek asked in his six year old voice. Riley frowned. "Well...We were at a shopping mall. I was on a escalator, and I fell. It tore up my arm and I had a choice, a mechanical arm or no arm at all." She said softly. Derek nodded and smiled. -"Watch this!" He said standing on his hands and tilting his legs some. "Tada!" he said in excitment. Riley laughed. "Whoo! Go Derek!" -Riley's dream took her to when an horrible thing happened. "Derek you're my-" Riley said, but was cut off by a roaring cough coming from her. Riley fell to her knees and started coughing even more. "Ri!" Derek said scared. Derek called for an ambulance and they arrived shortly after the call. Riley woke up from the dream heavily breathing.
Riley sat up on her bed, terrified by her memory. "I forgot that...That I knew him." She said looking at Derek's bed. She shook her head and walked around the room for a few momments, then climbed back into bed praying that she wouldn't have another horrrifying memory. Meanwhile the adults, were playing pool. Trisha lined up her stick and hit one of the balls, not getting one in. "Darn!" She said, letting the next person have a turn. Taylor hit her shoe with her stick. She was thinking about what Tyler had told her the day before about Diana. The only thing that could run threw her mind was him being with Diana, and not her. She shook it off and paid attention to the game, not wanting the others to ask whats wrong.
Trisha gazed at the clock behind Luke. It read twelve-fourty in the morning. "I think I am gonna get some sleep." she said yawning. The other's nodded in agreement and they left the room to their rooms. The next morning, everyone seemed to be awake when the sun was up. "Wensday...The middle of the week." Riley said looking at her calender. She walked over to her dresser and changed into clothes she wanted to wear for school. She saw Derek was still asleep. She shook her head, remembering the painful memories she had already witnessed. Derek woke up and saw Riley shuffling threw clothes in her closet. Derek opened his wardrobe and looked threw it for an outfit.
"Look who's awake!" Riley said looking toward Derek. He gave a little snicker. "Riley...When we are teenagers, promise me we will always be friends?" he requested. Riley nodded. "Duh! You're my best friend Derek." She said. She felt weird, she felt a warm feeling in her heart when she said that. Derek hugged Riley. "Ri. I had a dream last night. Actually, more like a flashback." He said. Riley looked at him. "I remembered when you were at my house once, you told me how you got you're mechanical arm." He said glancing at the pink metal. Riley nodded. "Me too." She said simply. They walked down stairs to see the adults. To only see they were silent. And that someone was missing.
The kids hardly noticed, as they almost had to run to catch the bus for school. The adults sat on the couches, still in their sleepware. "Where could she be?" Tyler asked himself. He shook his head. Trisha looked at him. "I am sure she's fine." She said, unsure herself. "I hope..." She whispered.
Chapter four
Taylor gasped in the room she was in. Her head was aching. "Uhg my head." She said sitting up, seeing a man on the couch. "Oh good you're up." Rien said in a stern tone. "Why the hell am I in here Rien?" She asked before she even asked where she was. "Now Taylor, is that anyway to treat a friend?" he said angered. Taylor shook her head observing the room. "Rien tell me where I am!" She said, thinking how worried everyone may be.
Taylor looked at Rien's pants. They were still covered in blood. She imediatly thought he killed someone from the house. "Rien did you kill any of them?" She asked sharply standing up. He shook his head. "Please. Give me a little credit, like I want to waste my time on that family." He said rolling his eyes. Taylor shook her head. He walked over to her, carrying a evil face. Rien pointed to a locker. "Change into a outfit from there." He ordered. "I am going to go into my room and change, don't you even attempt to run away." He said walking away. Taylor watched him leave and then looked at the locker.
Rien walked out of the his room after he changed and walked over to Taylor. He was trying to kiss her. She backed away, cutting her hand badly on a broken part of the locker. She pushed Rien away, causing a red hand print to be on his shirt. She ran to the other side of the room, blood splattering from her hand to his shirt. He looked at his shirt, giving Taylor time to was the blood off her hand.
"Taylor I-" Rien began, only to be cut off by Taylor. "No. I am going to talk. I don't know why you kidnapped me or where the hell I am but I just want to get out of here and get back to my family!" She screamed at him. He chuckled. "You think they miss you?!" he began. "All they care about is themselfs. They don't care that you're missing! Not even that kid." He said angered. Taylor shook her head, eyes filled with tears. "You're wrong...They are my friends...My family. I know they won't forget me like that." She said wanting to shove him.
Meanwhile, "This is all my fault!" Tyler said worried that Taylor could be hurt, or worse killed. "Ty it's not you're fault. Once Luke get's back from filing the missing report, we will go look for her I promise." She said wishing Luke would hurry up. Luke walked in. "Okay I filed the report, let's go start looking around." Luke said waving them over outside. Tyler walked around and wound up at a small house. he walked in as the door was open. He saw another door after a small hallway. He heared Taylor's voice. He ran in seeing Rien again. Rien spun around and saw Tyler. "You again!" He said annoyed.
"Taylor get out of here!" Tyler said as he started fighting Rien. Taylor nodded and ran out of the house. She only had one thought running threw her head, and that was if Tyler was going to be okay. Rien punched Tyler in the stomache, then hit his head with a lamp, causing him to fall down. He ran out of the house and continued to run until he couldn't anymore.
Taylor walked in to see if Tyler was okay. Only to see a knocked out Tyler. "No...Ty wake up!" She said falling to her knee's shaking him. She rested her head on his chest. "Ty...Come on wake up..." She whispered, his breath was getting slower and slower. She felt tears tremble down her cheeks. Taylor got up and managed to get Tyler on a couch. She curled up on the couch by him. Hoping he would wake up.
Tyler awoke sitting up, still breathing slow. Taylor looked at the weak Tyler. She sat up and gave him a heart warming smile. "Ty you're alright..." She said crying. Tyler nodded. "Damn that hurt." He said laughing a little. Taylor laughed. "Let's get back to the house, are you okay to walk over there?" she asked. He nodded. They left together and arrived to see Luke and Trisha griefing on the couch.
Trisha smiled. "You guys are back!" She said practicly jumping off the couch. Taylor smiled. "Yeah...God I want this day to end already." Taylor said looking at Trisha and Luke. Luke looked at Tyler's bruises. "Da-ng!" He said correcting himself as if the kids were inside the house at that very momment. "What did you do?" He said. Tyler gave a little chuckle. "One word: Rien." He said, not wanting to admit he got beat up. Luke and Trisha nodded, trying their hardest not to laugh.
Taylor looked at the clock. It was ten til three. "Hey and we got back ten minutes before Riley and Derek got home." Taylor said happily. The other's nodded gazing into the tv. Derek and Riley arrived home and ran upstairs. Derek hugged Riley. "Tomarrow is Trisha and Luke's wedding!" He said excited. She nodded excited. "I can't wait!" She stoped jumping around. "I wonder what dress I should wear?" She asked herself. Derek laughed and smiled. "And next year, we will be teenagers!" he said even more excited. Riley nodded, still pondering on her question.
Luke slipped a wedding band on Trisha's finger after saying his vows. Trisha did the same. Smiles were worn around the area. Taylor and Tyler held their champaine glasses as they watched Trisha and Luke cut their cake. The area filled with awe as they sat down and talked threw out the rest of the wedding, even when the sun had set. Derek finished his peice of cake and slid the plate infront of him. "This was really fun!" He said speaking to Riley. "Yeah it was! Exept I feel like I am on a date...Weird." She said smiling. Derek laughed.
Trisha and Taylor were talking about Derek and Riley. "They look so cute together!" Trisha said smling. Taylor nodded. "I know! Who knows, maybe when their teenager's they'll start dating!"
Tyler and Luke looked at them as Taylor said that. "No dating!" They said at the same time. Taylor and Trisha laughed. Riley and Derek yawned at the same time. "Mom, were gonna go head in." Riley informed Trisha. She nodded and Riley and Derek walked to their room. Riley laid in her bed, eyes closed but not yet asleep. Though Derek was. He started mumbling in his sleep. "I love you." He murmered. Riley raised her eyebrow a bit. She shook it off and fell asleep.
Everyone soon fell asleep. Everyone exsausted from the exotic day. A wedding was alot more work then anyone in the household would've thought. Relaxation was the only thing that apeared in their minds. The sun arose after a long period of time, shining it's rays on the balcony. Derek and Riley changed for school. As Riley was closing her wardrobe the only thing that would run through her mind was Derek's murmurs from the night before. "I love you?" she whispered so he didn't hear her. Derek looked at her.
"You okay Riley?" He asked her. She nodded. "Yeah! I'm fine!" She assured him. He nodded, not aware of what he said the night before. She went to walk out of the room, but then spun around to look at Derek. "Hey Derek, did you have a dream where you loved someone?" she asked. He shrugged. "I can't really remember...why?" he asked. Riley gave him a shrug as well. "No reason." She said walking out of the room. As the kids went off to school, the adult's were gazing into the telivision, well, all exept Tyler.
Tyler was sitting on the balcony, pondering upon thoughts. The thought that Rien was still out there. A man who would've gladly killed Riley, Derek and Taylor. He stood up and walked to another part of the balcony. Taylor was standing by the door looking at Tyler. She saw him peering over the balcony. She looked around seeing the amazing view.
