Love or Friendship

Chapter 5

[Riley's POV]

Woke up early today. Man, yesterday was really tiring. Still, I'm happy that Di doesn't have feelings for Austin. Though, I wonder who's the guy she has feelings for.

"You should know..."

It echoed in my mind again. I wonder what she meant by that. I really didn't get it. But anyway, I'll find it out sooner or later. I'm just happy its not Austin.

Around 10am I went down stairs. I didn't expected what I saw or should I say WHO I saw in our living room.

"Di?! What are you doing here?"

"Can't I go here anymore?"

"No, I mean, why didn't you told me that you're coming?"

"Well, I was supposed too but I didn't bother."

"Why?"

"Cause I'm here for Toby, so I told him instead."

AWW. She's here for Toby. Don't tell me it's... No no... Don't jump into conclusions Riley! Di won't be a pedophile. But she believes in "AGE DOESN'T MATTER" when it comes to love.  Oh no. Please tell me I'm wrong.

"Oh. I see."

"Di, sorry it took me so long to.. Oh hey bro. Morning." - Toby

"Morning."

Toby sat next to Di and I sat infront of them. After a while Connor went inside and sat next to me.

"So Di, why are you here again?" - Connor

"She's here for Toby." - Me

"Uh oh.. Someone's jealous." - Connor

"No, I'm not!"

"Then, what's with the tone?"

"What tone?"

"That tone."

"I don't get you."

"Anyway.. So Di, why you here for tobs?"

"Uh, I'll just tell him something. So uh.. We'll talk privately. Toby, could we talk outside or anywhere where these two wouldn't hear it."

"Okaaaay. Let's go in the kitchen."

There. The two of them went inside the kitchen. I wonder what Di's going to tell Toby. Hmm... Now I'm really curious.

[Diane's POV]

"So Di, what are you going to tell me?"

"About that thing you told me, are you telling me that I should use Austin to make Riley jealous?"

"BINGO! Yeah, I believe it will surely make Riley jealous. Besides, I think Riley hates Austin."

"I can say so too. But, I think I won't do that."

"WHY?"

"I know Austin likes me. He confessed to me last night."

"He did?"

"Yeah. He even asked if he could court me."

"And?"

"I said No."

"Why?"

"I don't wanna give him false hope Tobs. I know I have a crush on Austin but its just a fatuation."

"I see. Now what's your plan?"

"Well, I'll just make Riley see and feel this feelings I have for him."
