Tay.

After school Riley was waiting by the swings, where her and Lucas always met at 3. But today, Lucas wasn't there.
"Hey, babe." Riley heats from behind her. She knows it's not Lucas, but who else could it be. She turns around to see, the one, the only Tay Yetty.
"Tay?" Riley was openly nervous.
"Yes." Tay stepped closer.
"W-what are you doing here.?" Riley questioned. Tay stepped closer.
"Just to tell you Lucas can't make it today. He's busy." Tay stepped closer.
"Ya? With what?" Soon they were nose to nose. Riley put her hands against Tay's chest and pushed him back. At least tried to. But Tay knew it was coming. He grabbed her by the waist and kissed her.
"I love you babe." He said and walked away. Riley was stunned. Confused even. But she caught on quick enough to say, "I'm not your babe. I'm taken." Across the school grounds to Tay.

Soon Lucas met Riley at the swings. Lucas knew something was up. Riley never just sits there.
"Riley? What's wrong."
"He--he kissed me..."
"Who's he?" Lucas asked softly.
"He?! He?! He is Tay!!!! HE called me babe. HE told me he loved me. HE doesn't even know me." Lucas calmed Riley.
"I know, Riles. He's a jerk. Don't let him get To you. He's a player who only wants you cause your hot."
"I-I'm hot?" Riley blushes.
"Yes, in fact you are. Riley, it's been a while."
"Lucas, what'd do you mea---" Lucas cut Riley off. He kissed her.
"It's been awhile. I missed that, now, let me walk you home."
