"I just cant stop thinking, you make me weaken. Don't you know I will be true. I just can't breathe," (R5, Without You).
Riker's POV
Tomorrow. I'll see her tomorrow. I walked inside from the balcony and got dressed for the first time all week. I needed to at least act like I was okay.
I went in to wash my face and stopped to stare at my reflection.
I hurt Scarlet.
It was all my fault.
Tears ran down my face but as much as I wanted to fall to the floor, today I needed to try my best to get over it.
I washed the tears away and stepped out of my bedroom, without headphones for the first time. I hadn't even taken a step when I nearly ran into Rydel. She had rushed by me but stopped after noticing me.
She turned and stared at me with a sorrow look. "Riker," she began.
I tried to smile at her but it must have looked crooked being I forced it. "Hey, little sister."
She walked up to me and gently placed her hands on either side of my face. She traced the bags under my eyes as she gave me a reassuring smile.
"Will you be here tomorrow?" she asked.
I sighed and nodded. "Will she?"
"She'll probably force herself to come. But she'll be here for me."
I nodded. "Because she's loyal like that," I mumbled.
"Because she's loyal like that," she agreed.
"I'm such an idiot, Rydel."
"You really are, big brother. So what are you going to do about it?"
"What can I do?" I asked.
"Only you know that."
