My dad and I enter the room and see...

Riley... Sleeping... Alone...

I'm shocked, I swear I saw Riley with a guy and now she's all alone. She snores loudly. Damn, she's good. But how did she do it?

Mr. Beaton: "Well Em... What's wrong?"

Emily: "Dad, I swear there was a guy with Riley and they were kissing an-"

Mr. Beaton: "Emily Lucinda Beaton..!"

He grabs my arm and pulls me in to my room.

Mr. Beaton: "I can't believe you, Emily. Saying things like that. I didn't expect you to start lying to me."

Emily: "Dad I didn't lie! Really, I-"

Mr. Beaton: "That is it, you are going to sleep now."

Emily: "But I-"

Mr. Beaton: "Now."

I could tell he was pretty mad so I decided it would be best to just shut up and go to sleep.

Riley's P.O.V

"James you can come out now," I whisper to James as he comes out of my closet.

James: "That was close."

Riley: "Sure was."

I had seen Emily outside of my room door and when she ran away I knew she was going to tell Mr.Beaton, so I needed to do something. So I told James and he went and hide inside my closet while I pretended to be asleep and I'm guessing Emily is probably getting a lecture from her dad. Just what she needs.

James walks over to the bed and hops in. He puts his arms around my waist while in place my head on his chest.

Riley: "I think you should go."

He gives me a confused look.

Riley: "I mean... We'll get caught and as much as I want you to stay with me all night... We just can't."

James: "I guess you're right... But before I go... Can I get a kiss?"

I peck him on the lips.

James: "Awww... That's it?"

Riley: "Really James? Go... Put some clothes on or you're going home in your underwear."

He gets up and puts on his clothes while I put my shorts and shirt back on. I give him another small kiss while he leaves through the window.
I can't believe James likes me. It's a dream come true and I'm never forgetting about this day.
