RILEY'S POV
"Oh come in guys, it's been forever." My mom smiles while opening the door, "Are you sober?" Chase asks, "yes three years clean and sober, want tea?" "No thanks, this my friend boy, boyfriend Marco." I laugh nervously. My phone rings, "Sorry I have to go, I'm a nurse so I have to help save lives, come on Marco and Chase." I say walking to the door, "We can have dinner tonight if surgery doesn't run long." I say before walking outside.
I sit in the car as Chase and Marco follow, "I faked a page, I promised I would never do that or someone would crash their car as I lied and I just lied I was too freaked out to see her again, we're going to Aria's house." I say and begin driving the car. "Why are we going there?" Chase asks, "because I can't fix my problems so I'm fixing yours."
We get to Aria's house and Chase refuses to get out of the car, "Chase are you a five year old get out of the car, there's a child involved." "Jesus christ Riley I know that you don't think I know that?" "I think you know it and you just don't care so show that you care for god's sake," I scream. "Marco you're coming too." I demand, "Okay Bambina." Marco and Chase get out of the car
I knock on Aria's door and Elijah opens it, "Hello Elijah is Aria home?" I ask trying not to nut punch him, "yeah she's in the bathroom." I push him aside and walk into the house, "Aria" I scream. "Riley," the sight of her face was more infuriating than I thought it would be and if she wasn't pregnant then I probably would've punched her. "Elijah, really?" I laugh, "yes really Riley, you chose Marco rightfully so but you left Elijah to me." My eyes widen at her words, "fuck whoever you want but not while pregnant with my niece, Chase was coming to pick you and the baby."
"Aria I'm sorry I wasn't here but a baby sounded crazy to me but we can do it, together." Chase says walking closer to her, "I'm going to pop and a baby is going to come out and it should have two parents but I don't wanna be with you Chase you can be in the baby's life but I don't want you in mine." Aria says while hugging Elijah, "Okay," Chase says before running out the front door.
"Wow, Aria you can be a real bitch, and apparently so can you Elijah but remember, you weren't being such a bitch when I was fucking you," I say before walking out the front door and Marco follows. "Really Riley, you had to talk about that?" Marco asks, "no but I wanted to, sorry or whatever I have to go find Chase."
Im not good at the whole girlfriend thing, I don't wanna be. I find Chase by the car, "you ever feel like everything is falling apart so you hold on to that one thing, and then that one thing falls apart too?" Chase asks, "Yeah I do." "Well that's happening to me and what am I supposed to do?" "Don't fall apart," I say before getting in the car and waiting for Marco and Chase.
Marco gets in the car after talking to Chase, "I get you don't do the girlfriend thing but you have to try or I can leave, I can't be the only one trying." Marco says, "Okay but you have a secret, I know you do I've been waiting for the other ball to drop so just tell me before it drops." "I was married," he says. "Great," I say while smiling, honestly I wanted to scream and cry but I held it in.
I roll my window down, "come on Chasse we're leaving." He gets in the car and I drive to Marco's house. "What are we doing here Bambina?" "You are going to your house, and I'm going to dinner with my mom," I say. "Part of trying is communicating." He says, "Okay ill tell you the truth, I don't want to look at you right now and I need time so please go into your house and let me be." He opens his door and gets out of the car, "what happened?" Chase asks, "he was married." "Holy," "Shut up please Chase," I say.
MARCO'S POV
I walk into my apartment expecting to see Eli but he wasn't there, I miss him and now I have to miss Riley too. I shouldn't have told her, there was a knock on my door. I open it, "Juliet what are you doing here?" She lets herself in, "I'm your wife lighten up." "Jesus fuck, ex-wife and I'm light enough why are you here?" I ask again, "you're not celibate anymore? you met a girl?" "Holy shit that's none of your business leave." I demand while holding the door open for her, "what's her name, is it serious can I meet her?" "No Juliet because you have no significance to my life so leave." She ignores me pushing the door out my hand and closing it, "where's Eli?" "He got shot and he's in the hospital can you leave?" I ask again, "wow, and your dad?" "You mean the one you had sex with while I was asleep in the next room, he's in Italy maybe you should go there and marry him." I say jokingly, "maybe I will, I'll be back later." She says before walking out the front door.
She was my wife two years ago. It was a mistake a horrible one, she will not leave me alone she goes on business and then comes back to my house, she won't leave me alone. Maybe next year I'll get a restraining order but now I have to tell Riley that I'm kinda friends with a woman I used to have sex with. Her manipulation and self-severance used to be attractive until it wasn't.
