Bullied

Chapter 9

Riley's POV

I start to get really nervous because I can't see my parents now because of this stupid storm.

"How long do you think it's going to last?" I say while pacing around.

"I don't know, but your going to have to stay the night, maybe try texting your dad."

I sigh and that gets me more nervous, but I pull out my phone.

R: The storms really bad so I'm going to have to stay at James'.

D: I'll pick you up.

R: No dad, I don't want to risk it please stay at home I'll be fine.

D: Alright, but if you need me just text or call.

R: There's nothing to worry about Dad.

I guess I can't be worried the whole night so I'm just going to have to get through it like I do everyday. I take a deep breath and I know I'm going to be fine, I'll be fine.

James POV

I watch Riley text her dad and then take a deep breath and she all of a sudden seems better.

"Are you feeling better?" I ask.

"I guess, I mean I'm here the whole night so what's the point of worrying for that long!" She says then smiles and I can tell that she will be fine.
•••••
The whole night we watched movies until 12 because the power didn't go out quite yet, but I know it will soon cause right now we're in the bad part of the thunder storm.

"Where do you feel comfortable sleeping?" I ask her.
The thunder crashes.

"I honestly don't mind where I sleep at all."
The thunder crashes even louder and she jumps.

"Do you feel comfortable sleeping with me? I have a huge bed."

Riley's POV

I honestly don't know of i feel comfortable sleeping with James, but I guess he does have a huge bed so I could just sleep to one side.

"I guess." I say.

"Do you have anything to wear to bed other than that?" He asks.

"I'm wearing comfy clothes, I'll be fine."

"Alright then, I guess this is goodnight then." After that he turns out the lights.
