James' POV
I am upset right now and I just wanna let go and have fun but all I can think about is Riley, Riley this, Riley that she's just stuck in my head

As I pace down the hallways of the next step thinking about what I've done, it just seems foolish, killing everyone, it all came down to me, I started this whole bad thing

If only my dad never got into that fight, I just only wish, well technically he's my step dad but who cares about him

All my memories start to be remembered in my head, I hated that moment I had killed Emily, I just wish this had never happened

I grab my bags and head to the hospital where Riley is, she is in devastating pain, I just hope she's really Ok

"Riles, I am so sorry for putting you in this danger" I say to her even though I know she won't respond because she is either in a coma or dead

But then I hear her quiver "I-i-its ok" and then her eyes flash open "What am I doing in a hospital?" she asks me

Riley's POV
I get a bunch of moments flash through my mind, even ones that have never happened before, and then I see James

"Hey" James says as I sit on the hospital bed, scratching my head about what had happened a few days back, why would Tom even wanna kill me?

"Hello" I reply to James and hug him, after I jump up and out of the hospital bed "Can I meet you at your house?"

"NO, Tom is still after me, it is too dangerous, there is only one safe place I can think of right now" James says

James then tugs me by my arm and drags me to a ladder leading to I am guessing an underground city

"Welcome to our home for a while, this has a way to the next step" James says to me and then we travel through the underground

it is a city because there are houses underground and people actually live in this city, although I have to travel through an underground city, I do feel lucky I have James, and then we reach the next step

"We're back" I say as we start to climb up the ladder that takes us to the vent of studio and, after we reach there we open the vent, and get into studio A, Kate hugs me

"Glad you could make it, you've been away, and I am so sorry what you've had to go through for the last year" Kate tells me

"Nah, its ok" I reply to Kate, and then I think to myself is James really nice... is he lying to me...?

AUTHORS NOTE!!!!: Do you think James has really changed, why do you think Tom wants to kill Riley, and who do you think should die, because at least one person in this book will die before nationals

BUT wait, there will be a sequel most likely, if there is one it'll be named "The competition to Remember" I might not make it though

also the photo is of Jiley in the underground city

I've changed- Promise me sequelWhere stories live. Discover now
