James pov:
I'm in shock. Why would riley of all people do that to herself? She seems so sweet, cheerful, happy and friendly on the outside, but is there a monster coming out from inside?
All I do is I rub them with my thumb, as if I was trying to make them go away, and I even kiss one of them.
"Promise me you'll never do that to yourself again?."
"I-I promise" riley responds.
"Good. Cause I want you to stay alive after I ask you this question."
"And what's your question?" Riley responds again.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" I ask her, and pull the classic 'smile' as west calls it.

Riley pov:
He wants to be my boyfriend!!!!
Is all I'm thinking in my head. But then I pull my excitement together and act 'cool'.
"I'd love to!" I say blushing, and smiling. Bringing out my dimples.
But all James does is poke my right dimple softly, pull a piece of my hair behind my ear, and pull me into a long, passionate kiss.

As we finish the kiss, James drives me back home. Where my father was sitting on the porch peacefully smiling. I quickly write my number down, and I put it on James seat, and walk up to my room, smiling like crazy.
