*a few days later*

“I can’t believe we’re doing this.” I grunted, finishing the curls in my hair.
“You can blame the boys for saying yes.”
“Or I could blame Sarah for telling her new bff Brittany we would ALL be there.”
“Are you two ever going to make up?” Luke asked.
“Who knows.” I sighed, changing into a tight two piece Tiffany blue dress that showed off my stomach.
“We’ll never make it to dinner with you looking like that.” Luke whispered in my ear.
“No, we’ll never make it to dinner if you keep that up.”
“You didn’t want to go anyway, right?” he asked, planting a kiss on my neck.
“Luke.”
“Riley.”
He turned me around to face to wall and held my hands above my head. Luke combed my hair over to the side with his fingers. He trailed kisses around my shoulders and neck.
“Oh the things I’m going to do to you later.” he moaned.
“Later?” I whined.
“Later. Let that sink in.” He replied, releasing his grip.
“Luke Hemmings.” I growled, “You’re such a tease.”
“Tick tock, babe.” he smirked, walking downstairs.
I slipped my heels on and quickly followed him.
“I will get you back for that.” I told him as I grabbed his keys and walked to the car.
“So sassy.” he chuckled.
As we drove up the winding mountain road, my stomach turned. I hate fighting with Sarah, but I hate even more that she’s trying to be best friends with Brittany.
“Here we are my love.” Luke spoke, opening my door.
“I think I’m going to be sick.”
“You’re going to be fine.”
“Ry.” Ash slowly approached.
“Ash!” I exclaimed pulling him into a hug. He had been on his own personal hiatus the past few days.
“Hey, Luke.” He spoke as I released. Luke quickly embraced him in a bro hug.
“Why are you here?” I asked lightly.
“Same reason you are. They were told everyone would be here.”
“Think it’s a trap?” I laughed.
“Most definitely.” he smiled.
We all walked in together and bumped into everyone else.
“Wow. Crystal, stunning as ever.”
“Thank you.” She smiled, hugging me. A long burgundy dress with a plunging neckline fell on her curves and Michael held her close.
“Riley!” Emma exclaimed.
“You look so pretty!” A short, tight black dress with rhinestones gripped her perfectly.
“You too!”
“So where’s the dinner?” Luke asked as he wrapped his arm firmly around my waist, giving my hip a squeeze.
“Over here.” Sarah popped in shyly. I could feel everyone giving her the cold shoulder, not that they needed to, this was our fight.
The walkway was lit with candles and rose petals fell next to it. You’ve got to be kidding me.
“Can I talk to you?” Sarah leaned in.
“Right now?” I asked.
“Riley. Please.” she sternly asked, holding me back.
“Fine.”
We stepped over to the side as everyone funneled into the dining area.
“What?”
“Ry, I don’t want to fight and I really want to make up, but this is more of a heads up.”
“That he’s proposing?” I asked aloud, but it really hit me when I did. Hunter and I just broke everything off a couple weeks ago. “Oh my god, he’s proposing.” I almost fell to the ground, but Sarah caught me.
“Hey, it’s going to be okay. You have Luke and he is the greatest guy.”
I know she was trying her best to comfort me, but the room was spinning.
“I guess I have no room to talk, but two weeks to then be engaged. Is she pregnant?!”
“Shhh! I don’t think so. I could find out.”
“Uh- guys?” Ashton came over.
“Ashton.” Sarah gasped.
“Nope.” he turned, shuffling back outside.
“I’ll take care of him. I can fix it.” I told her, holding her chin up.
“You can?” she whimpered.
I nodded grabbing her hand and pulling her to the table. “Can I ask why this had to be so public?”
“Brittany thinks we’re all her friends to. “Sarah chuckled.
“In the words of Ash, nope.” we both laughed.
“I know we’re not fixed, but I love you.” she smiled.
“I love you too Sar.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Me too.”
I let her hand go and walked over to Luke and Ash.
“Ashton, could I talk to you?”
Luke shot me a questioning look, I smiled at him and walked over the the decks edge.
“If you’re here to tell me to take her back, because you guys are friends again, it’s not going to happen.”
“Why? ‘Cause she kissed your best friend? You slept with hers. Give me a better excuse.” I scowled.
“I-- God, Riley. I miss her so much, but it hurts.”
“She’s hurt too. No one has a perfect relationship, but they can be perfect for each other. You two are perfect for each other.”
He roughly ran his fingers through his hair, then walked over to Sarah.
“What was that about?” Luke asked, wrapping his warm body around me.
“I told him to get Sarah back; that they are perfect for each other.”
“This is why I love you.“ he smiled, kissing me softly.
I leaned further into the kiss and bit his lip.
“Right here, right now?” he whispered against my lips.
“I’m not just some girl you take to a bathroom stall, Luke Hemmings.”
“There’s no persuading you is there?” he smirked.
Hunter clinked a fork to his glass. Luke and I both sighed as we walked over to the table.
“Thank you all for coming tonight.” he began. “Please enjoy the dinner.”
“Better?” I whispered to Sarah, she blushed.
--
Dinner felt like it dragged on, knowing what I know. I could barely stomach any of it, no matter how delicious it was. Dessert arrived shortly after we all finished. Strawberry cheesecake with fresh strawberries and whip cream. My favorite.
“I’d rather this whip cream be on you.” Luke seductively whispered in my ear. Chills ran down my body. I shot him a glare. “I’d lick it off your most sensitive areas as I make my way down on you.”
“Luke.” I smiled, trying not to draw attention.
“Riley.” he growled.
I gave his knee a squeeze of frustration. He discretely ran his hand up my leg, to the edge of my dress.
“Keep it up, Hemmo.” I spoke through my teeth.
“Your wish is my command.”
I pushed my chair back, realizing I made more of a scene than needed. “Excuse me.” I smiled to everyone.
“I’ll check on her. Just gonna take my dessert with.” Luke spoke in the distance as I sped to the restrooms. I’m sure that wasn’t suspicious at all.
I pushed the family bathroom door open and waited for Luke to burst in. He quickly locked the door and pulled me onto the counter.
“I thought you weren’t a restroom fuck.” he growled.
“Yeah, well you couldn’t keep your hands off of me.” he smirked as he hiked up my dress. He carefully placed the whip cream my neck, chest, stomach and thighs. Luke sucked gently on my neck leaving a small hickey, then made his way to my breasts where he unzipped the top of my dress to expose me, He gave each nipple a gentle caress, and love bite. His fingers trailed my body as he quickly licked my stomach and moved to my thighs.
“Promise me you’ll be quiet.” he spoke.
“Promise.” I replied as I pulsed for him to continue.
His tongue slowly found it’s way from my thigh to my clit. He played around, making me squirm with pleasure as I pulled his hair.
“I want you.” I moaned, but he continued, “Luke.” he slid two fingers in and came face to face with me.
“You want me baby?”
“I want you.” I exhaled.
Luke undid his pants and stroked himself.
“Please” I begged, I couldn’t wait any longer.
Luke scooted me closer to the edge of the counter and thrust himself into me. I continued to run my hands through his hair as his kisses still trailed my neck and his motions became harder.
“I love you.” he moaned on my lips.
“I love you. “ I replied, which must have sent him over the edge, because he quickly pulled out and finished.
“I can’t believe we just did that.” I breathed heavily.
“That was amazing.” he kissed me.
“We should probably get back out there.” I chuckled, hopping down and cleaning myself up.
“What do you think we missed?”
“Hopefully the proposal.” I laughed.
“The what?” he asked.
Whoops.
