Chapter 23
The little get together interrupted part 2
Beth squirms uncomfortably in her seat while Cal tells her about this weird amazing adventure he went on, Grey looks about ready to rip Cal in half and jump off a cliff at the same time with Talia getting in his personal bubble. Ryler helps calm me down by sitting next to me on the couch and talking about nothing, yet everything in particular. And Adam tries to bring back the lively mood getting another boarding game out and starting it.
I snort, ready to laugh my head off. “Battleship? That’s a two player game, idiot. Get out life.”
Adam glares at me. “You know how much I loathe life.”
I have to hold in my giggles. “Just get it, crybaby, that happened years ago, when you were a little buck toothed loser. You can’t seriously be holding a grudge over a game you haven’t played in years.”
Adam shrugs. “The memory still haunts me to this day.”
Ryler looks at me, and I laugh. “Okay, so were playing life when we were younger and back then our parents thought it was the only way to get us to shut up. So…were playing the game and Adsm’s predictions was he was never going to get a wife or children, he was never going to be successful, and…something else. But he just had bad luck.”
“In life!” Adam shouted.
“In the game!” I insisted. “That or our parents set it up.”
Adam looked thoughtful. “I’d bet.”
Meredith rolled her eyes, but I didn’t miss the glance of awe when she looked at him. Yep, my brother was quite a looker, and Meredith couldn’t help but notice.
“Ooh!” Talia boomed. “Life! Yay! I wonder what’s in store for my future, but I bet I know.” She looked at Grey when she said the last part.
“No you don’t!” Meredith barked.
“So I went camping once, during winter, stupid really. But my parents wanted me to go.” Cal was telling Beth.
Beth shrugged. “Must’ve been…cold?”
“So…apparently what’s going to happen at the end of this game is…” Sage paused. “I’m going to marry a hot billionaire, while Ali’s stuck in jail, and Adam is just a failure.”
Adam glared at her. “I. Am. Not. A. Failure. I will be successful!” He thrust his arm out, accidentally knocking his cup out, making the liquid splatter all over Meredith.
Ali whistled. “Yippy dog woe, your actually good at something!”
I laughed, turning back to Ryler. “Aren’t we a crazy bunch?”
Ryler grinned. “Better than being normal, at least were exciting.”
I look back to the spectacle at the table. “Yes we are.”
Ryler looks at me, carefully. “What’s with the hatred between you and…Barbie doll?”
I roll my eyes. “I wouldn’t say hatred, I’m trying. But she just gets so…I don’t know. We’ve never really talked before, she’s barely acknowledged me before. I guess we just got off at the wrong start, but I tell, that girl makes me so angry.”
Ryler shrugs. “What I don’t get is that it seemed that her and that excuse of a guy came here as a couple. But she’s all over Grey, and he’s all over Beth.”
“What?” I ask.
Ryler shrugs. “Beth looks ready to bolt, and he keeps on whispering in her ear, it looks like she wants to shoot herself…” he pushed. “Twice.”
I shrug. “Strange world, you think of one thing in the beginning and in the end…you get something else.”
Ryler doesn’t seem to realize that I’m looking at him intently, but I blush when I do. I feel a bit bothered at the fact that Cal might be going after Beth, but it’s mostly because Grey and Beth are together, and Beth doesn’t like him, not because I have a crush on him.
Or had, I thought, smiling at Ryler, definitely had.
“What are you smiling at?” Ryler asks.
I shrug, still smiling. “Just about the little things…that can make a difference.”
Ryler smiles too. “Such a big difference too.”
Right now, it feels like the whole world has disappeared, and it’s just me and Ryler. And I like it that way.

Yeah Uhuh
Yeah Uhuh
Yeah Uhuh
(Verse 1)
I am in love
with the guy who is sweet
till we meet it isn't possible
(Chorus)
We need to meet
before we go Undercover
for each other
We need to meet
before we go Undercover
for each other
(Verse 2)
We haven't met yet
Still Single hearted
thinkin' 'bout each other
everyday
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Now & Then
Everyday, going separate
paths and ways
thinkin' we need to meet
in the middle before we go Undercover
(Pre-Chorus)
We never stopped goin'
separate paths and ways
passing broken hearts and scars
I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
Now,
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
I can't stand it any longer
goin' all crazy
when I get really lazy
Undercover
(Verse 1)
We need to meet before we go Undercover
Yeah Uhuh
Yeah Uhuh
(Verse 1)
I am in love
with the guy who is sweet

Undercover

We need to meet before we go Undercover
Slowly,
Hand in hand,
We stroll towards the beautiful beach,
Never taking our eyes off the red sky.
We are together now,
And we face anything that will take us on,
With determination and unity,
Slowly.
The wave washes us into the ocean,
Taking us in,
Slowly, killing us bit by bit,
But we never let go of each other.
When we are together,
We will never die.
There is no chance of that,
It is impossible.
The power of being together
Surges into both of our souls,
And the angry waves crash against
Our faces,
But we still never let go.
We are undivided.
Nothing, ever, can keep us apart,
Or even separate us.
Because, you see,
We are bound.
We are bound
By the ropes of love,
Forever.
Nothing,
No one,
Can cut those ropes.
Not now,
And not ever.

I look down at the snow below
Thinking of its familiar glow
I remember the trees that tore at my wet clothes
And the horrid wind that stung my nose
I tripped and had fell to weak to move
Thinking I had nothing to lose
My eyes began to close and I started to drift away
My mind refusing to disobey
It took me by the hand and I felt warm
Almost glad to be taken by the storm
Now I watch from up above wondering what I did wrong
And why I was one chosen to sing the angels song
Thinking of its familiar glow
I remember the trees that tore at my wet clothes
And the horrid wind that stung my nose
I tripped and had fell to weak to move
Thinking I had nothing to lose
My eyes began to close and I started to drift away
My mind refusing to disobey
It took me by the hand and I felt warm
Almost glad to be taken by the storm
Now I watch from up above wondering what I did wrong
And why I was one chosen to sing the angels song
With nails so black scraping away at rotting church pews
I tell you I love you more than myself
But to understand, from me you shall receive neither money nor wealth
What you search for is not emotion or passion, it’s much more precise
It’s the golden fortune which comes with a price
So you take the deal and strike my head
Your beating heart, now made of lead
Allow me the peace of mind to soften the last deadly blow
Perhaps this is how our story ends of you the Raven and I the Crow
(Crows and Ravens, in European legends are known to symbolize death)
I will remember you always.
Will you remember me?
That is a question for you to answer,
And not me.
I promise
That I will always
Keep the flame of memory alive.
The fun that we had will never
Be forgotten.
Even on foggy evenings,
The darkest of nights,
You will always be in my heart.
For I know that you will help me
Keep the flame of memory blazing
Always.
All the good times that we had,
All the fun that we had,
All the tears that we let out,
All the anger we let out
Will never be wasted.
Because every minute of it
Is in my heart.
I will tend to the fire
Every night,
Recollecting all the memories we have
Knowing that the flame of memory
Is the brightest flame of all
And it will blaze on.
