Ria's POV
This couldn't look any worse, harry saw me kissing Eric ,and I participated in it,what excuse could I have for this my blatant stupidity.
I left Eric and walked towards harry, I didn't know what to say,we were both staring at each other.
"Harry,it isnt---" I wasn't allowed to complete my statement before he interrupted.
"Isn't what it seems,I saw you kissing Eric,what else does it look like,I really am stupid,I thought you were different"
"I am different" I said indignantly.
"Yeah you are" I thought with that statement ,maybe he was letting go of his anger,but his next sentence shattered my illusions.
"You made me actually fall in love with you,before breaking me  into pieces,I should have known it was the wealth that attracted you"with that he started to walk away.
"Harry it isn't the wealth,I knew you before you told me who your family were, I love you." I said through my tears,if I had any doubt before as to my love for harry this huge pain and emptiness growing in me wouldn't be there.
"Wow,this is amazing ,you tell me you love me now,save it for those who actually believe those words" with that he entered his car and left.

I didn't know how many hours ,I sat down there crying and cursing my self for what I had done,I didn't even know when Eric left,I was exhausted when I walked into the house and to my room,I went to drown my sorrows in sleep.

Days later

"Man what's wrong with you" phillip said as he sat down next to me in the cafeteria.
"Nothing" except extreme heart ache, insomnia etc.
"It can't be,ever since you came back you just changed,what happened between you and ria?"
"Nothing,it just couldn't work out for both of us"
"That can't be possible,you looked hung up on her"
"Can we just not just not talk about ria for the moment"
"Whatever you want bro"we both sat down there in silence, with the memories trying to overcome me.

My phone was ringing ,who could it be ,I was already eager to leave for home,I haven't spoken or seen ria for a while and I missed her a lot.
I picked up the call with no one in mind,the voice I heard was the last person I expected to call me.
" hello lover boy"
"What do you want brie"
"Nothing,I just felt like talking to you"
"" cut to the chase"I was impatient
"Well since you put it like that,what do you think your beloved ria is doing at the moment?"
"She's with tyra" I gave a wild guess,brie laughed
"Wrong,do you want to know what's she's doing"
"Am not sure I want to know"
"You know I love you right?"
"You don't love anybody brie,only yourself"
"I did love you,but that's a talk for another day,your lovely ria is as of now replacing you with another"
"I don't believe you" I said while my heart was in my stomach. Brie laughed at my response
"Then why don't you pay her a surprise visit?"
"Am not at home now"I replied
" am sure you can do something about that slight problem "
"I still don't believe you"
"Then why don't you prove me wrong" and she hung up.

I took the private jet home , once I got home, old insecurities crept in, why would she choose to date someone like me,I am after all nerdy and geeky and am not really interested in being in the spotlight like her. I decided to call her home number.
"Hello ,please who am I speaking with?" Ria's sister said
"Its harry, I just wanted to know if ria was at home,I couldn't get through to her cell"
"Ohh,maybe she left it in her room,she went out not quite long ago"
"Okay thanks,please can I ask a favor"
"Sure,go ahead"
"Please don't tell her I called,I would like to surprise her"
"Sure"
"Thanks"
" you welcome"with that I hanged  up.was brie actually saying the truth,or just looking for a way to destroy my relationship with ria.

I decided to wait for ria to come home at her gate ,I didn't want to go inside and wait for her,so I sat in my car and  listened to some of my recorded notes,from the college classes that I was taking.
I was there for two hours when I heard a car park at the front of her gate,guess she was home already,I unplugged my ear phones and came out from the car,I noticed she wasn't alone,Eric was with her, I decided to wait for him to leave before I approached her. To my utmost surprise and disappointment ,ria was kissing Eric ,I think that was the moment my heart felt like it exploded,I couldn't think straight again ,I walked towards them with the intention of confronting ria,guess brie for once was right,I felt like killing Brianna,what if I wanted to stay in my delusional state that ria was in love with me,who told her that I wanted to know the truth,while I told myself that,i knew it was lie,whatever the case may be I would want to know the truth,u can't abide deception and lies.
