Chapter 6

After that incident in the cafeteria, I decided to go home. My parents wondered why I was home early, but I didn't answer them. Instead, I rushed to my room and locked myself here and ignore them. They're too busy to even notice me sometimes, or too busy to even care.

So I put on my baggy jammies and oversized shirt, took off my glasses, tied my hair to a messy bun, because it is what I'm comfortable with. Then I watched a movie with food by my side.

But right now I couldn't concentrate of all the three movies I was watching because my mind is filled with the most daunting moment in my life.

It's because of that jerk-ass Connor McDonough. If only he was in my place, he would know how it feels. I just don't seem to understand why he's always so hot headed when it comes to me.

Sighing, I roll to the other side of my bed and bury my face there. I am in so much anguish. Who wouldn't be, when you have been embarrassed a lot of times? Although when Alana tries to abash me, I always get an awesome comeback to her snide comments about my hair or clothes or my glasses, that's because I'm immune to her.

But Connor... It's just the start.

This will be the last time I let Connor humiliate me. This time, I will fucking fight.

It still stings, but I didn't cry. I wouldn't and I don't want to. Though I'm mad, irate even, I still held back the tears that would escape my eyes. "Suck it up, Rovie. Suck it up." I chanted. Why do these things happen to me?

Suddenly three soft knocks echoed in my room, I stood to open the door, revealing a beaming Riley.

I'm surprised.

He has three boxes of pizza from Pizza Hut, and three Starbucks Coffee. "What are you doing in here?" I inquired.

"I came by to see how you're doing." he struggled a bit but I was too busy darting my eyes at those pizza boxes and the smell of cappuccino and double chocolate chip frappuccino. I'm not sure why he has three coffees though.

"You don't have to-"

I was about to close the door but he got into before I could even, "Of course I have to. Here."

"Riley..." I groaned. He came in and carefully placed the boxes on my bed and the coffees on the floor. And came in without permission.

"Rj, I promised you these babies after the song writing thing. So here's me keeping my promise." he tackled my bed and made himself at home.

I shake my head and chortled, "Thanks."

I sat on my bed and opened one of the boxes. Hmm... My favorite...

"I knew it." I literally jumped when he said those words.

"What?"

"You can't say no to food."

I chuckled and gave him a slice, we both sat there eating. Our quietness is enveloping the room, letting the sounds from my tv fill the awkward silence. He was just looking at me, as if he wanted to say something. But I decided to speak first. "So... Did you guys... Talk?" I inquired awkwardly.
