(Rucas) our little secret ✅

Chapter 10

Lucas POV

I open the front door and enter my house. I walk into the living room, set Riley down on the couch and go to the fridge to get a ice pack for her bruises on her side.

Riley: Hey where Is your mom?

Lucas: Uh, she's.. dead. *I answer while closing the fridge.* 

Riley: Uh well, I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked.

Lucas: It's ok *I said walking over to the couch and giving her her ice pack*

Riley: Why are you doing this?

Lucas: Doing what *I said sitting down beside her on the couch*

Riley: Being nice to me, you don't have to pretend like you like me, I've had enough of those kind of people to last a lifetime.

Lucas: What do you mean?  *I asked curious as to what she meant*

*She sighed* All my life I've been liked by people but only because I'm a cheerleader, popular and rich. I don't need you to like me only For that to.

I laugh causing her to get mad.

Riley: I don't need this. I should have never said anything. *She says getting up from the couch but yelps in pain from her injured leg. She groans frustrated and sits back down, crossing her arms while pouty, which I found adorable*

I lift her shirt up a little bit exposing her tanned skin.

Riley: W-what are you doing? *She asks with fear in her eyes*

Lucas: *I chuckle and say* I'm putting the ice pack on your side. Because you fell on your side on the sidewalk.

Riley: I don't have- *but I cut her off by lightly perusing my hand on her side and she screeches in pain.*

I give her this "I told you so" look and place the ice pack on her side.

Riley: So.. How'd you know I fell on my side? *She asks raising an eyebrow.*

Lucas: My mom used to be a doctor, so she taught me how to know when someone was hurt. *I say And take my hand off her side and give her the ice pack. she smiles lightly and places the ice pack on her bruised side herself.*

Riley: Thank you, for taking care of me, and bringing me to your home.

Lucas: Your welcome. *I say slouching into the couch.*

Riley: Lucas *Riley says catching my attention.*

Lucas: Yeah.

Riley: How do you know if you're in love?

Lucas: I don't know, I've never been in love myself. But I guess when you find 'the one' you'll know.

Riley yawns suddenly and I notice her eyes starting to close.

Lucas: you tired?

Riley: *nods* yeah *yawns again* 

I scoot over to her, pull her softly into my arms lay back on the couch. She rests her head on my chest and I start lightly stroking her hair.

Riley: your not bad friar.

Lucas: *looks down at her* you either Mathews. *lightly chuckles*

Riley: *closes her eyes*

I lay there stroking Riley's hair softly as she sleeps. Soon I start to feel sleepy myself and soon sleep takes over and me and Riley fall asleep on the couch and stay in the same position we were in when we were talking.
