Relationship Problems(23)

Jorel: dude how's Riley doing?

Dylan: WHY ARENT YOU ANSWERING US?!

Jordon: George how is she?

Theresa: Have you heard anything yet?

How is she?

George!!!

Please tell me if she's okay??

Matt: Can you answer is before Theresa kills all of us?

Danny: Seriously man Reese is freaking out, just tell us.

Vanessa: George can you please tell us what's going on with Riley? Everyone is worried about her.

Kristine: you better fucking answer me George Arthur Ragan!!!

I swear I'm going to kill your Irish ass!!

Fucking thunder fuck.

George glanced down at his phone and sighed, he felt bad that he hadn't called them after he had arrived at the hospital. With everything that had went on between him and Sid and trying to take care of Riley, he had just forgot about it. He wondered if they had stayed up all night worrying about her, so he pulled out his phone and typed a quick response back to Danny. He knew that he would be up early anyway and would relay the message to the guys.

George: she's doing better now, just an allergic reaction to walnuts. I'll be flying back out sometime tonight, probably be there tomorrow afternoon.

After he had sent his text to Danny his phone went off with Asia's ringtone. Part of him wanted to answer it just so that he could curse her out, but then again he still had to act like an adult and handle this when he could speak to her face to face. He shook his head, clicked the dismiss button, and put his phone back in his pocket. He pushed himself up from the kitchen table and began to make breakfast for him and Riley. When he opened up the fridge he saw that he had just enough milk and eggs left to make some pancakes. Of course he had plenty of apple juice left over from the last time he had went to the store. He grabbed all of the things he needed and began to mix the batter.

"Daddy?"

George looked up from the bowl and smiled over at his daughter. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his legs.

"I missed you daddy." She told him and hugged his legs tighter. "You staying now right?"

"Not yet sweetie, I have to leave very soon."

"Why?" She frowned and stepped back from her father. After he put a pancake on a plate he bent down and picked her up.

"I have to finish the tour, your uncles are waiting for me to get back to help them with the shows." She nodded her head slowly, a frown still rested on her face. He moved over to the island and sat her down on the barstool then placed a plate and sippy cup full of juice in front of her. After she drank half the cup she asked him where Devin was.

"She's at home with your aunt Abby. Would you like to go see her later today?"

Riley's eyes glowed and her smile grew wide. She nodded her head as George gave her a pancake then picked up her fork.

"What do you think of her long hair?" He asked her as he shut off the stove then took a seat next to her.

"It's not short no more." She replied. "I like it, but it different."
