Riley's POV.

A teacher came up to me, "we need you at the principles office now." He seemed serious. "Okay, Maya you coming?" I turn around to ask Maya. "I don't think I'm aloud riles, but I'm me and me is coming." Maya says. The teacher turns around. "No Maya, your staying behind for this one." He speaks so poshly it's annoying. I walk away and turn around to see Maya mimicking him. I laughed to myself and follow the teacher, I wonder why the principle wants to see me. We walk into his office. "So, Riley Mathews, would you like to tell me about you and Lucas friar." He asks me. "What do you mean sir." I became suspicious, why would he ask me that? "I mean, what happened earlier today." Did he mean the lockers. "What specific part of the day?" I ask him, he looks pissed that I keep answering his questions with more questions. "When you were at the lockers Miss Mathews." Oh, he saw that. "Nothing really, he just helped me out I guess." I didn't know what to say. "we know there is more behind it Riley, we just need to know did Lucas throw the first punch." He never did throw a punch. "Sir, I'm not sure you have your facts right. Lucas did not throw one punch, the most he did was shove his foot on the floor and held his wrists against the lockers. And if anything the guy deserves it for what he tried to do to me." He looked shocked at my final answer, he shooed me out and I walked to French class. Luckily enough I wasn't late. I walked in and took a seat at the back of the class, I sat on the right side of the class. The teacher spoke in French as the class started. I couldn't really understand anything yet, since this was my first year doing French. I just listened to her as she kept speaking in a noticeably fake French accent.

Lucas POV.

I knew I was going to be late to French class, looking for Riley was taking longer than I expected. Zay was trailing behind me. "I think we should just try again after Lucas, being late to our first French class is pushing the limits." We both laugh as I knew the last part was over exaggerated, that was just zay for you though, always over exaggerating. "Yeh, I guess we should get there, you know I don't like getting in trouble." We walked off to the French class and just as I was about to walk in missy grabbed me. "Hey Luky, miss me?" She whispers in my ear seductively or at least she thought. Zay was in the middle of the door step and the teachers attention was drawn on us, as was everyone else's. "No, not really." I say really straight forward to her. She kisses my cheek. "Oh, I know you didn't miss me, as much as you missed...well...me." I think everyone knew what she meant by the last part, but it's only happened once...or twice. Yeh maybe a couple times...but that was a mistake. "Lucas, I found Riley." Zay says. I turn around and Riley doesn't look so good. "Why would you be looking for her Luky." Missy asks fake gagging at the word her. "Why do you need to know everything I do, and her is called Riley and if anything your the one worth fake gagging over." I say to missy strictly. She slaps me across the face. I hold were she's slapped before I hear zay laughing really hard. "You had that coming...luky." He laughs at his own joke as the French teacher stands behind him, not looking so impressed. "Haha, so funny. Sorry were late Mrs Morgan, and for the inappropriate behaviour. It wasn't intentional." Zay and everyone else in the class was looking at me weirdly. It's probably because it was the first time I'd apologised to a teacher or something.

Riley's head is down and she doesn't look very happy. Probably from the scene that just un-folded in front of her. "Ok, Lucas, both of you may chose were you sit." I notice that the seat next to Riley is empty, I walk up to the seat and slump into the chair. I look over at Riley who looked at me straight in the eye and then she looked down again. I missed the gaze of her deep chocolate eyes, that were filled with innocence. I felt bad for her. I really did. "Riley." She ignores me. "Riley, I was late from looking for you. I just wanted to say thank you, I shouldn't of snapped at you like that and I really feel bad." I whisper softly. She turns her head to me and smiles. "Listen, I don't blame you for snapping at me and it's none of my business what you've done in the past and who with...but i don't know if we should be friends." Her words made me feel something. She made me feel so many new things, I needed her to be something to me. "Riley, I'm sorry...I just need us to be something, I need you to mean something to me." I hardly knew her, maybe i was coming on to strong, OK, yes I was. She was Looking at me probably thinking. "Fine, but if you cause me any trouble Lucas, that's it and for the being something, that's for you to figure out." She smiles and gets back on with her work, I feel relief rush through me. "I'll try my hardest." I look to the other side of me to see zay raising his eyebrows at me and smirking. He's such a goof.

Riley's POV.

I couldn't believe what had just happened, it happened so fast. The slap, I had to say was very hard. The mark on his face still didn't cover the fact that he was more focused on me. He actually apologises to the teacher as well before slumping himself in the seat next to me. He looked at me and I foolishly looked at him. I got caught in his green eyes that could resemble a forest that I'd got lost in. I looked down, breaking the gaze. Our following conversation surprised me as well, what did he mean by 'I just need us to be something, I need you to mean something to me'. Whatever he meant, I'm sure it will explain it self someday. The day went by in a hurry and I was surprised missy didn't come up to me. I was waiting by the front of the school for Maya, when I found my self wrong. "So, Riley...what's with you and Lucas." Missy asks me all cocky like. "Nothing." I say back to her bluntly. "Oh don't be blunt with me...what the fuck are you and Lucas?" She snaps. "What's with you missy...if I said nothing I mean it, I'm sick and tired of people like you thinking that you can tower over people like me...little secret, you can't always. So listen up when I tell you to stop thinking you can bully people." Missy's face looked shocked that I had stuck up for my self.

Just then Maya walks out towards us. "Everything okay here?" Maya asks not taking her eyes away from missy. "It is now." Missy says before running off to her little group of friends. "Are you ok?" She says looking at me, I shake my head and then we walk over to Maya's truck. We get in and Maya turns on the engine, but the thing is it won't start. "It's not starting." Maya says twisting and fiddling with the keys. "It's probably just having a little break down." I say reassuringly...or not. "Yeh ok, little break down." Maya's tone of voice sounded sarcastic. Lucas pulls up next to us and hops out of his Range Rover. "Little trouble ladies." He looks at me and smiles. "Yeh, the truck broke down." I say holding my hand out towards the truck. "Need my help." Lucas offers. Maya looks at me and rolls her eyes. "None from you ranger Rick." Maya says with a really strong southern-accent. I just laugh at the looks both of them are sharing. "What Maya meant to say was, yes Lucas, we do need your help." I look at Maya who doesn't look the one bit amused. "Okay then, jump in and I'll call a towing company now." Lucas says pulling out his phone. "No huckleberry you can tow us your self, I can't afford for my truck to be towed." Maya says throwing her hand up on the air. "Okay then." Lucas sets everything up while me and Maya get into his Range Rover. I sit in he passenger side. He climbs in the car a couple minutes later. "Ready to go." He looks over at me and he must see that I don't have my seat belt on, he leans over and clips it in for me. His hand brushes across my thigh. He's still leaning over when he looks me in be eyes and smiles at me, I smile back at him. "Ok then, let's go." Maya says staring at both of us. We snap out of it and Lucas starts the engine and then we drive off. This was going to be one long ride.
