~ Riley's p.o.v ~Everything in life is becoming... Scary. I'm 3 weeks pregnant. My parents threw me out of the house. They tried to kill the baby. Plus, Lucas is looking for a job. Well... I'm thinking of getting a job too.
I want to help with the family. I have to. Or I'll just feel useless. I got an email two nights ago. It was an email from Victoria Secret. They were PERSONALLY ASKING ME TO BE HIRED AS A MODEL! I'm telling Lucas tonight at dinner. I know that it will be hard with the baby and everything.... But we can make it work.
It is 6:34pm. I told Lucas to meet me at Olive Garden at 7. He is at a school interview, he found a job to be a P.E Teacher.
I put my hair up in a ponytail and slipped on a navy blue shirt with black leggings.

" Lucas?" I asked.
He looked up from his plate of spaghetti that he was slurping up.
" Can I ask you a question?"
He bit into his noodles and chewed as he nodded his head.
" Is it ok if I get a jo-"
" Riley." He imminently sighed.
" No! Lucas, you have to hear the whole thing. Victoria Secret asked me, personally! To be one of their models."
His eyes widened.
" V-Vic... Victoria Secret?!" He whisper yelled.
I nodded my head.
" Riley. I don't feel comfortable with you putting your body in public. Plus you have the baby.."
" Lucas... Why can't you be at least a little happy for me?" I mumbled.
I picked up my fork and played with my food. I'm not hungry. I felt his eyes on me.
" Can... I at least try the job?" I asked, still looking at my food.
" I don't want to keep you from doing what you want to do." He sighed.
I looked up at him with a smile tugging at my lips.
" Plus I don't decide what you want to do. We aren't even married yet."
Yet? What does he mean by yet? Is he going to propose soon?
" Yet?" I questioned.
He nodded his head as he picked up his fork and ate his spaghetti. I felt my cheeks burn up a little. When will it happen? I looked back down at my food and stared at it. It... It looks too fattening. I looked back up at Lucas. He had his eyes laid on me.
" Why aren't you eatting?" He asked.
" I don't know. I guess I'm just not hungry." I shrugged.
He gave me a concerned look.
" Ok, well I'm done. Are you sure that you don't want to eat it. We can take it to go if you want to-" he suggested. But I cut him off.
" No. I'm fine."
I don't even know why I said that. It's like my mouth has its own mind. I got out of my seat and went to the front desk to pay. I got out $40 and handed it to her.
" Woh Woh Woh Woh Woh!" Lucas caught me.
The lady already cashed in the money. He got out $40 and handed it to me.
