Riley's POV
I was just sitting across from Mitch I was just thinking how I never thought I would ever see him again. I was just so overwhelmed with it all . I ditched Brayden and came with Mitch. "Riy are you even listening to me?" He teased "Sorry I was thinking. What did you say?" I smiled "I said Whats it like for you in California?" He said "Well it's nice. But nothing like home. I mean I'm taking online classes because Tyler travles a lot but im not complaing because it's nice I've been to a lot of places because of his work." I said while taking a sip of my water. "Sounds kind of lonley though I mean what about friends?" He asked "Well I made friends with a guy who lives near us his name is Jordan college student though but he's someone." I say smiling.
Mitch looked at me "Riley you need to stop making friends with all of these guys people are going to think that you are a slut or something." He looked at me causaly "I mean I dont but other people might." He said I was glaring at him. "Really you don't think so because it sounds like you think that I am a slut." I said defencivly "Well I'm just saying the truth and-" I shook my head "Nope not having this descoion with you Mitch.Have a nice day. Don't talk to me anymore." I got up from my seat and lefe the cafe. I pulled out my phone and I dialed Ryan. I was about to cry "Hello?" He said "Ryan Come pick me up please." I said balling my eyes out "Okay okay just calm down where are you?" HE said "I'm going to that book store that we go to all the time." I said entering the building. "Okay I'll be there in a minute." He said hangong up the phone.

I saw ryan was outside and I walked out of the book store and got into his car. We took off and the care was just silent. I was just so hurt that he thinks that the only guy friends I have are Brayden and Ryan and Jordan of corse but they were all I have. He doesn't know went through or how I handled my life. No one knows. We drove up to the house and I just went inside ans sat on the futon and I pulled my legs to my chest. Ryan walked over and rubbed my back "Do you want to talk about it?" He asked I looked up at him and I took a deep breath "Am I a slut because I have guy friends?" I asked i looked up at Ryan and he looked at me "Now why would you think that?" He said "Because people around this town think that I am." I said at the verge of crying. "No no tears Riy not when you're with me. You deserve to be happy when your with me because damn it Riley I like you! I like you a lot since the day I took you to my secret place in the woods to the day you left to California. I like you so much you make me feel happy and bring out the best in me. I couldn't ask for a better person to walk out my life." I was just speechless. Then I felt Ryan ram his lips on mine but I just let it happen. I felt something between Ryan and I and I never knew that he liked me.
Was Tyler right did Ryan have the bad case of the Riley's or did I have the bad case of the Ryan's? I felt butterflies when he kissed me. I felt a smile grow on my face. Ryan pulled away "Riley do you like me back?" He asked. Did I like Ryan back? Do I want to risk the friendship between the two of us? "Yes on one condition Ryan." I said "We will be friends okay even if it doesn't work out okay?" I said "I promise."
