Riker drove me home during silence, I just sat there with my phone and tried not to cry.. When we arrived at my apartment we just sat there quietly..
- Thank you for driving me! I spoke up.
- Anytime! When ever you need me I'll be there! He gives me a smile.
- Do you wanna stay with me for the night..? I don't feel like being alone.. I blushed a bit.
- Sure I'm just gonna call Rocky and tell him! Riker says with a smile.

The rest of the night we just talk and laugh, we even found a bottle of whiskey that disappeared as soon as we found it.
We fell asleep on the couch cuddling up to each other, I woke up to a door being slammed shut and flew up.

- What the hell?! I heard Rocky.. He came out into the living room looking really mad.
- Riker What the hell?! Rocky screamed..
- What is your problem man? Riker looked confused.
- You didn't call or text any of us and you decide that it's a good idea to get drunk with her?! Rocky is still screaming and looks furious.
- I'm sorry I forgot to call and text you, we had fun and didn't really think about that.. He looked ashamed. Rocky's expression softened a bit..
- I'm still to drunk to have this conversation so I'm gonna take a shower.. I said as I walked right by them.

After 30 minutes I felt like a new person, I got dressed in a pair of yoga pants and a sweatshirt and put on a beanie over my crazy wild hair. I went out to the kitchen to find Rocky, Riker, Em, Ross and Ryland sitting around the table drinking coffee..

- Please tell me that we have coke and cigarettes? I whined.
- I bought coke while you were in the shower.. Em gave me a smirk.
- I love you, you know that right? You are the only family I need and have! I gave her a kiss on the cheek and got my coke.
- So last night? Rocky looked at me.
- Yes, we had amazing sex and we are going to get married and have four kids.. I trailed of as I saw everybody expressions.
- I'm just fucking with you.. Riker just held me company because I didn't wanna be alone and we found booze and then we fell asleep on the couch. I sat down at the counter.
- I hate when you get all serious and scares the crap out of me.. Em laughs.
- I know you do, that is why I do it! I smile.

Riker, Ross and Ryland heads home and Em and Rocky are going to work so I'm all alone with nothing to do, I decide to go to the beach so I packed my stuff and went.

I found a perfect spot in the sand, just as I had sat down I feel something hitting my face. When I look up I'm surrounded by two guys, I sit up and feel at my face where the thing hit me.. My hand is covered in blood that coming from my nose.
- Great.. I mutter to my self.
- I'm so sorry.. It wasn't my intention! This boy with ice blue eyes and brown hair says.
- Are you alright do you need something? The other guy asks..
- No not really I can call a friend to pick me up! I smile at them.

I call Riker and tell him what happened and he says he is on his way, the guys and I have now gone to first name basis. The blond haired boys name is Dylan, he got a few tattos and seems really nice, The boy with the blue eyes name is Cody and they live not long from me and Em's place. I give them my phone number so we can meet up someday and they follow me as I head to the parking lot to meet up with Riker.
I noticed that he didn't come alone, Ross and Riker jumps out of the car and stares at Dyland and Cody, I say my goodbyes and jumps in the car with my towel pressed to my nose.

- So that was the boys that hit you in the face with a ball? Riker sound irritated.
- Yes, they are really nice tough.. I trail off. Riker mumbles something and we just rides to the hospital.

I get to go in right away and Ross and Riker sits in the chairs as I sit on the bed.  The doctor comes in and starts to examining my nose.

- So it's a little broken, I got to adjust is just slightly and it may hurt.. He looks at me.
- Just do it so I can get home.. I sigh.  And with that the doctor starts to push my nose back in place and fuck it hurts. I start screaming and cursing...
- It's done now.. The nurse is just gonna put a bandage over so it wont pop back again! And with that he leaves. I feel the tears running down my cheeks and I wipe them off with my sleeve.

When the nurse is done I look like a freak, I put my hoodie on and just keep walking with my head down. I hop in the car and when we arrive at my place I thank them shyly and just runs in to my apartment and hop in to bed. It's been a long day and I just need to sleep, tomorrow is my first class at the rage.. I drift off to a dreamless sleep.
