Just Friends?(BWWM)

I'm Yours & You Are Mine

Chapter 10: I'm Yours & You Are Mine

Monday

(Caspian's POV)

I looked at my suitcase and closed it up, I sighed and said to myself "Here goes nothing." I grabbed my suitcase and walked into Nadia's room and picked up her suitcase as well. I handed them up to the driver and he put them in the back seat, Nadia walked up to me and put her arm on my shoulder and said "Are you excited? Spain with your girlfriend, that's going to be so romantic." I rolled my eyes and said "I honestly don't know if I can even call her that anymore." Nadia patted me on the back and said "This week will change all of that I promise!" She hopped in the car, and my father followed behind her and yelled out to me "What are you waiting for? Spain is awaiting son!" I sighed and walked outside to the car. Was I excited to be in Spain? Of course but I was not excited to be in Spain with Riley. Yes it may sound harsh but just as fast as I walked out of the door two weeks ago, she let me and I haven't heard from her since then. So no I was not looking forward to spending time with her, I've tried my hardest to get her to be with me. Not just have her presence be in the room but her actually be there with me too, but she can't and I am sorry if I don't want to spend my time in Spain chasing after Riley...

(Riley's POV)

I dialed my therapist Linda and she picked up the phone, she said "Hello? Riley?" I sighed and said "Linda I am going to Spain for a week with Caspian, I don't know how this is going to go or if I should even go really." Linda laughed and responded "Listen Riley Spain is exactly what you two need, just leave everything behind in New York for a week. Be happy and be with him, you say you love him we'll this is your week to show him that. Leave all the guilt and bitterness here, just try to be in Spain a normal girl who isn't struggling with PTSD but a girl who is in love with her boyfriend. Enjoy Spain." She hung up the phone so I couldn't respond to her, which was probably best because I needed to listen to her advice instead of talking myself out of this trip.

I grabbed my suitcases and walked outside where Jasmine and Alex where waiting, Alex asked "Did you finish asking your therapist if you should go be happy or not." I punched Alex in the arm and Jasmine just laughed at us and shook her head. We walked outside to the car that was waiting for us, and headed to the private jet we would be taking. Jasmine let out a huge grin and screamed to the top of her lungs "Were going to Spain!" I decided to let go, so I took a deep breathe and exhaled it. I looked at Alex and Jasmine and screamed with them "Were going to Spain!"

--

We walked into the private jet and I saw him, for the first time in two weeks. Remember when I said my heart wouldn't be the same once he left, well after seeing him that heartbeat came back. It was like my whole body was pulling me closer and closer to him, even when my mind wasn't responding. I walked slowly and hesitantly over to him, and I sat across from him. I licked my lips and carefully said "Hi.." He looked up finally acknowledging me and blankly said "Hi." I held my hands together and rubbed them, I looked over at Jasmine who was giving me the thumbs up and I said "How.. How have you been?" He looked back up at me and bluntly said "Oh now you care? If you really wanted to know how I was you could have picked up a phone and called, or how about not let me walk out your front door in the first place." I gulped and explained "listen I get that your mad and that I hurt you, but you have to understand." He cut me off and said "I don't have to understand anything, but okay if were going to go there we can. I understand that you pushed me away, I understand that you can't be vulnerable with me but somehow you manage to visit Hayden multiple times a week and talk to him. That's what I understand Riley and not by what you say but by what you do."

I let out a deep sigh filled with regret and slowly got up from that seat, he looked back down at his work and I walked back over to where Jasmine was sitting with my head looking down. I plopped down in the seat and sunk in to the deep cushion, my bottom lip was poked out and my eyes were watery. Jasmine put her hand on my knee and said "I take it that didn't go to well." She pointed at Caspian and I said sounding depressed "He's pissed and he has a right to be. I mean we finally get a chance to be together and I blew it." Jasmine crunched her face and shook her head no, she looked back over at him and said "No I don't accept that and you shouldn't either, I planned this trip for you two mainly so you are going to prove to him that your feelings are the same. I don't know how but we will figure it out."
