I opened my eyes and got up immediately. I checked my injury and it was bandaged. I sighed and thought about the incident, Martha will eventually pay.
I looked around. I was in our school health center. Bethany walked in with a nurse. She smiled at me and hugged me.
" Thank God you're okay."
" The knife was poisoned." The nurse said.
" Poisoned?"
" Yeah, but you'll be fine. You just need to be careful next time." The nurse said and walked out.
" What's up with Martha?" I asked.
" Well, she's popular in school and has big connections, but the school authority said nothing about it."
" She's definitely gonna pay."
" You wanna fight with her again?"
" I don't know." I said and relaxed my back on the bed.
" Maybe you should forget about it
Aiden drove me home , dad was outside waiting. I came down and frowned a bit." Riley." Dad called." I'm sorry."" Get inside." Dad said. I sighed and entered the living room." Thanks Aiden."" You're welcome. Goodnight." Aiden said and left. I stood beside the door waiting for dad. He entered and frowned at me." Can you explain the meaning of the nonsense you did?" Dad asked." I'm sorry."" Alright explain."" I didn't mean to do what I did." I began." She started it..." I stammered." Started what?"" Riley! Look I'm still not sure why you stayed out late." Dad fired. Wow, thank God. I thought Aiden told him about Martha." I'm sorry, I just thought I needed some space." I said and sighed." Riley it's late, I warned you about night movements." Dad yelled." Aiden said you
I sat on my bed and went through my phone. Aria walked in giggling." That's the reason I rushed in." She said sitting close to me." What?" I asked." The flowers Riley , they are so beautiful. Who is he?"" A girl gave it to me."" What?"" Just kidding , it's a friend. A white boy who wants to go out on a date with me tonight."" And you didn't say no right?" Aria asked. I sighed and kept my phone aside before giving her a reply." I'm still thinking about it."" You're not thinking, I'm getting you a dress." Aria said standing up. She opened my closet and slide through all my wares." Aria I'm not even sure if I really wanna go."" You don't have a choice. This is the news I've waited for in the past, wait lemme count..." She said and began counting her fingers." God three years, and finally prince charming brought in beautiful flowers you're
I got dressed and gently stretched out my hair to make it look better. I'm not a fan of makeup, so I added a little make-up and stared at my reflection. I can't believe Miles is my first male date. I was so uncomfortable. The reason I'm going out with him is because he actually healed my injury I sustained from Martha. I am still getting to think how he managed to do that miracle. Plus, he's kinda sweet. When a guy is too good to you, there is always a string attached. I walked out of my room once I'm dressed and took a deep breath before I climbed down the stairs. I saw the sparkle in his eyes , they were checking me out. The feeling wasn't normal, it was strange. He got up at once and smiled at me" You're beautiful." He said." I don't wanna do this, I don't have a choice I guess." I said softly." Yeah you don't have a choice." He whispered and gave me his hands."
♥ RILEY'S POV ♥The following day was Saturday , so I decided to introduce Bethany to Aria. Chris drove us down to her place , Aria was stuck again with Chris." Not today please." I said, knocking on the car window." Oh fuck." She blurted out and came down." Bye love." She waved and blew kisses at Chris who caught it. I held her arm and pulled her inside." Aria , are you sure of what you are doing?" I asked her." Is there anything wrong with falling in love?"" Not really , you're going back to Korea soon."" Look, I don't mind coming down to the United States every weekend just to be with Chris."" Oh dude , you're not feeling fine at all." I said and she laughed." He's cute."" I get it." I rang the doorbell and called out her name. I twist opened the door and Aria and entered into the foyer. We walked into
" Miles." The girl called again. I sighed and turned to look at them. " You brought a girl?" She asked and smiled at me. " Hey Lydia, meet Riley." " Hey." I waved and she smiled slyly. " Is he your boyfriend?" Lydia asked. " Not really. We're just..." I replied at once. " Better." She said and proceeded to pull Miles out. He gently dropped her hands and smiled. " I'm with someone Lydia, I can't walk out on her." Miles said and she frowned at me. " Maybe we'll talk later, nice to meet you Riley." She huffed and walked away. " Your ex-girlfriend? Or girlfriend?" I asked and he scoffed. " None of what you mentioned." Miles said as he picked up a cue. I stood by the pool table and looked at Miles who was setting the billiards on the table. " Ready for the game?" Miles asked and winked at me. " I'm not kissing you."
♥ AIDEN'S POV ♥ Last night was really crazy, I had to stop Riley from her drunken kiss. She will hate herself if she finds out about the kiss. I took her home quickly and left. I can't tell why but I was uncomfortable, my conscience was pricking me like I caused everything. I stood under my shower and stayed there till I was ready to catch a nap. ♥ RILEY'S POV ♥ God! I can't believe what I did last night. I can't believe I stupidly kissed Aiden. I hit my pillow hard and regretted my actions.Stupid booze, dad caused it all. A crazy dinner party made me drink and I can't believe I kissed that jerk Aiden. I stayed in my bed a
Miles got down from his car and smiled at me. He turned his gaze to Aiden who was staring at me inside his car. Aiden glared at Miles as Miles shut his car door." Okay Riley let's go." Miles said wanting to hold my hand. Aiden smirked at me and drove away. Right now I just wanna go home. I don't even feel like going with Miles." You're okay?" Miles asked and I nodded." Let me take you out of here." He said and held my hand . He opened the door and I got in , Miles entered his car and we drove away. He took me to a restaurant and I ordered snacks . I couldn't eat. I was just thinking about the incident that occurred between me and Aiden." Are you thinking about him?"" Not really." I said softly." You're not a very good liar." He said." Miles I'm good."" Cool. Do you like him?" M
♥ RILEY'S POV ♥ " Riley you've been drinking your ass out. What's up?" Bethany asked worriedly. I'm still thinking about my pending downfall. Weeks with Aiden will be hell. I just wanna drink and get drunk, it will definitely save me from thinking too much." Riley what's up?" She asked again." My dad's traveling."" So , is that why you're drinking?"" You don't get it. Aiden had to look after me like a stupid babysitter." I said and huffed." Wow." Bethany said, chuckling. " That's damn cool. I'd kill to have Aiden babysit me." Why did I actually think Bethany might get my point?" What! Aiden is a fucking asshole. He's mean, rude, annoying and always act like my rude uncle in Africa. That's if I have one crazy rude uncle." I said and gulped the drink." I told you about my addictions. I like guys with Aiden's attit
