--Riker--

            My hair was a mess and I saw Precious laughing at me. Do I really look that bad? I glared at her and the next thing I knew, we’re kissing on top of her bed. I got a funny feeling on my stomach and also feel my cheeks getting hot. We both opened our eyes at the same time and pulled back.

            “What just happened?” I asked as she sat up with her hands on her face. “Hey, are you okay?” I tried comforting her cause I saw she was shaking. “Josh can never know this,” she whispered. I hugged her and she let me. “And he won’t. We won’t tell her,” I lifted her head and we were now face to face. “Thank you,” she smiled and hugged me tight. I return it with a tighter one.

            “Hey guys! What’s taking you so…” Ross entered and was cut off when he saw us hugging. “Did I interrupt something?” he laughed scratching the back of his neck.

            “Get out of here,” I laughed at my brother and threw a pillow on him. “Everyone’s waiting for the two of you,” he answered going downstairs. “Let’s go?” I asked offering my hand to Precious. She smiled at me and gave me one last hug before we joined the others downstairs.

            “What took you guys so long?” Josh asked with his face full of suspicions again. “We were overwhelmed with all the flashbacks we’re having,” I answered as Precious walked beside Josh. I watch as Josh wraps his arm on Precious’s waist. My stomach dropped and felt a pinch on my chest. Am I jealous? That can’t be?

            “Hey Riker? You okay?” Rydel asked shaking me. “Oh. Yeah,” I answered giving my sister a smile.

            “Well, we best be going now,” I said grabbing the keys on my left pocket. “You coming Josh?” I asked. “Do we have to?” he whined bringing Precious closer to him. My grip on the keys tightens watching him do it.

            “Precious needs to rest Josh,” I said annoyingly turning towards the door. “Fine. You don’t need to be grouchy and all,” Josh answered. “You okay bro?” Rocky asked behind as I opened the van. “Yeah,” I answered slamming the door shut.

            “What’d I tell you? She’s amazing!” Josh exclaimed. Everybody agreed but I just gave them a silent answer. I already know she’s amazing way back Josh met her. We drove in silence listening to some songs on Rocky’s iPod.

            “Thanks for the ride,” Josh said getting out. I smiled at him and watched him jog back to his house.

            “Now he’s gone, want to tell us about you and Precious?” Rydel started. If I can read her mind, she also can read mine. Great.

            “I already told Rocky about it. She’s an old friend,” I answered focusing on the road. “Then why did I caught you two hugging?” Ross asked popping his head from the backseat. “We just miss each other,” I smiled remembering we just kissed back there.

            “If you say so,” Ross answered with a tone on his voice. Guess they’re not satisfied with my answer. I parked the van and all of them got out while I stay there looking on the steering wheel.

            I think my feelings for her are coming back. I’m falling again for my bestfriend. What’s worse is that she’s now with my new bestfriend. What am I gonna do?

--Precious--

            “Glad they’re gone,” I sighed and smashed my body on my bed. Riker and I kissed here. We kissed. What if Josh finds out? I groaned and put a pillow on my head. “What’s going on?” Ysabel asked entering my room.

            “Riker and I kissed,” I answered in a monotone. “YOU WHAT?!” she yelled sitting beside me. “It was an accident okay!” I defended getting my phone. I unlocked just to reveal a picture of Josh and I.

            “Does he knows?” she asked pointing on Josh’s face. “Of course not!” I answered throwing my phone on the far side on the bed. “He’ll go ballistic and it can also ruin they’re friendship. You know how Josh gets jealous,” I added.

            “Hey sis? Do you really love him?” she asked out of nowhere. “I-I do,” I stuttered. Why am I suddenly unsure? Is a kiss that powerful to play with my emotions?

            “Liar,” she laughed and went outside. “Shut up!” I yelled and slammed the door. My sister is not helping the situation. She’s not.

            I grabbed the music sheets on my nightstand and my guitar. I started playing the song Josh wrote for me. It didn’t feel the same. I feel weird as I strum on the chords.

            “This is hopeless,” I groaned and grabbed my pen and notebook. I started on writing some lyrics even though I’m not good at it. I just sat there and wrote what comes on my mind. Once I’m finished, I read it and it just points out to one person. Riker.

            “No,” I whispered and tossed the notebook across my bed. I laid there staring on my ceiling. I can’t have feelings for him. I just can’t. Or better yet, I shouldn’t have. Just no.

            “Want some pizza for dinner?” my mom asked opening my door. “Yeah,” I mumbled and kept on staring the white ceiling. Thinking on how will I get rid of this feeling.
