Novel & Cerita Riley X Oliver

“You seem like you’re doing well! You’re looking very healthy.” “I’m trying.” “Good, good. You were always my favorite patient in the ward. It’s so good to see you doing fun things. This is what you were kept alive for.” I wasn't sure what to say, but luckily I didn’t have to find the words. “I’m Riley, Olivia’s boyfriend.” They shook hands. “That’s good, it’s really good. Well, I have to go, but stop by the hospital some time...we miss you.” She squeezed my hand.

They finished their conversation and they walked up to us. "Dylan, Liam, Lyle meet Xavier and Xander Elena's brothers, Derek and Leon Alexa's brothers and Brianna and Brittany," Riley said not even introducing me as her husband. Wait one of them is the guy I saw her with the other time and she told me he's her cousin. "Now let's go meet the old ones," She said walking away with them. "See I told you that was her lover she didn't even introduce you as her husband" Brittany said squeezing my shoulders.

I was even surprised that I had easily taken all they said, without passing out. "By the way, everyone knows that you never had a rapport with him, compared to how you flow with his siblings and the same goes with him. But he is the only single one in the family right now, that's the reason why William and Ashley decided to honour our parents wish now, before it becomes to late---" Dad sighed. "---Before Oliver goes into a serious relationship. Though they doubt he would. He has proven nonchalant to having a productive relationship. It seems the two of you were made for each other" Dad said rather comically. This was not a funny situation.

Girls were in little groups—some playing clapping games, others braiding each other’s hair, a few stretching or sitting on the grass with bare feet. I walked across the field slowly, not really searching, just... moving. Then I saw them. Andrew and Sara were under a tree, talking quietly. Not like strangers. More like two people who’d known each other just long enough to be comfortable. She said something that made him laugh. Then he shook his head and looked down at the grass. I looked away, pretending like I hadn’t seen anything. But my face had already changed. “Olivia!” a voice called. Lola.

I implore one last time. "If that's what you want," Riley says with a shaky voice. "That's what I want and need to move on with my life for myself and my boys; I can't keep wondering when you're going to show up next when I'm trying to pick up the pieces of my life and all you do is shatter it even more." "Then we will respect your wishes," Riley agrees with a broken face and voice as he stands along with the rest. "Can we leave the gifts for your boys or not?"

Meanwhile, Lily is sitting beside Oliver’s baby chair showing him pictures of dresses on a tablet even though he’s four months old and literally cannot care. “This one is prettier,” she tells him seriously. Oliver drools on himself. Cole walks into the kitchen halfway through the chaos wearing a black t-shirt and jeans, Oliver’s bottle in one hand and his phone in the other. “What’s happening now,” he asks carefully. “Your future wife hates joy,” Rhea replies instantly. “I hate stupid wedding entrances,” I correct. Cole glances at me. Then at Rhea. Then at Jax. “I stay out of these conversations for personal reasons,” he says before grabbing coffee.

He was in nothing but his pants and had his pyjama shirt in his arms while trying to flee. “Good morning” Andrea smirked and Oliver froze and turned sharply. “Yeah, Good morning” Oliver greeted back awkwardly. Though it wasn’t his first time waking up by her side, he looked more uncomfortable than ever. “I…should go” He declared pointing towards the door. “Yeah sure”Andrea smiled. She wasn’t sure why seeing him act all awkward and weird was funny, but it was and she could hardly hold herself back from laughing. Andrea fell back into the bed after he left. Oliver and Rio were the same and yet so different. ‘Will it really be okay dating Rio?’ Riley thought out loud before she finally decided

Oliver is draped over Evie, who is clinging to him for dear life, her dark blue eyes flitting between Jaxon, then Ava, then Riley, as if she can't decide what to attend to next. Riley remains unsmiling, eyeing the two new members of the room with curiosity in her gaze. My heart picks up the pace where it sits. If Riley wants to hurt Oliver, she has all the power to. I should have known Jaxon wouldn’t openly face me with the kill switch on him. I curse, knowing I was too distracted with everything else to think of that. “Who the hell are you?” Oliver asks Riley, and I see his hand inch for his pocket, I assume to pull out his gun.

Walking towards him, his eyes snapped away from the interaction and quiet conversation Aunt Aurelia and Father were having to me. “Were you not also dismissed?” A boyish smirk appeared on his face and I stopped dead in my track, feeling hot all of a sudden. “I don't think it works that way, Oliver.” I tried not to think too much of the way he said my name. My eyes met his finally and he held my stare. I could sleep to the smell of Citrus and wood now. Internally groaning at how he managed to make me fall into a trance, Stella sneaked into my thoughts.
