What happens when you lose someone you grief and not a day goes by where you don't think of them well what if they come back from the dead and your whole life gets turned upside down , what do you say what do you do , that's exactly what happens to...
I stare at the ghost of my best friend tears well up in my eyes as I walk to her I see her take a sharp breath as I reach up to her face and trace the skin of of her jaw under my finger tips ,she can't be real I'm dreaming " you're not "she says as she leans into my hand and places hers over mine " Hey beautiful " I hug her tightly as tears stream down my face onto her chest she wraps her arms around me" Hey don't cry lo you know I hate seeing you cry " she says as she cups my face and wipes the tears away with her thumbs , she looks so different but the same at the same time she's built a little more solid I can feel solid abs as I hug her again and her arms feel more muscular tho I guess sixteen year old Riley would feel different from the grown woman in font of me I pull back and study her face and she looks down at me she's now a few inches taller than I am " when did you get so short Jauregui " she teases eyes over leaving mine , I hit her chest and roughly wipe at my eyes " Shut up
As everyone sits around the table Riley explains what happened on the boat and how she was held captive and tortured by pirates she didn't go into too much detail as everyone cried around her and when she finally got found bound in the ship in 2017 , her parents had already moved to California by that stage and that's how they lost contact with us all and how it took years of therapy to become a function human being again " So yeah,"Riley says, running a hand through her hair and turns my mum as my mum says, " I'm so sorry, Riley .as she turns her head, I see a thick scar sneak underneath the collor of her shirt. " it's not your fualt mama j it's no one's fault. It just happened." she says, smiling gently at my mum, then turns to me" so wanna tell me what you've been up too miss pop star, " she says, smirking. I blush and look down. " I told you they will fall in love with you."
I'm numb. I'm pretty sure I'm still dreaming as we sway to the music with my hugging into her chest. " I'm gonna wake up, and you'll be gone again," I say into her chest. She rests her head onto of mine and says " I'm not going anywhere this time, princesa" I smile at the nickname she's been calling me that since we played princess and knight in shing armor in kindergarten " promise ? " I ask " cross my heart and hope to die " she says and I hit her chest " aw what was that for "I glare at her as rage over takes me " everything "she shrugs "fair " I huff give me your phone , she instantly takes it out and hands it too me I smirk at her when I see the lock screen and look up I at her

" I um I um I can explain" she stutters running her hand through her hair " actually no I can't" she says " you know there are plenty of better photos of me right " she nods blushing " I know but I like that one" I type in my number ans smile " huh uh" I hand the phone back to her "girl on your lockscreen " she reads frowning " yeah no changing that " she says and types away "too? " I ask , she flips the phone around and shows me " my princess 👸💕🌛" shake my head " goof " I say
