When I wake up, it's 6:44am.

I'm debating with myself on whether or not to go to school today.

I'm extremely tired and sore, Plus I don't have a backpack and text books.

Oops.

I turn my body around, Riley is on the floor, still sleeping.

He looks so perfect, I want to crawl in beside him and kiss his neck.

Oh god what am I saying.

"Stop Melanie stop." I whisper to myself.

I quietly get off the couch, trying not to wake Riley.

I walk into the bathroom.

Geez I look like a mess.

My makeup has rubbed off and I look like I haven't slept in the past week.

I brush my teeth quickly and then leave the bathroom, running straight into Riley's chest.

"Oh gosh sorry I-"

His laughter cuts me off mid-sentence.

I fake a smile and walk around him, into my room.

I shut the door, locking it.

I open my closet doors, looking for something decent to wear.

I hadn't changed from my soaked clothes I wore yesterday, and I probably smelled like rain water in all the wrong places.

I pull out a blue flannel shirt, a white tank top and dark jeans.

After quickly changing, I grab my makeup bag and go to the bathroom, applying eye liner and mascara, not much.

After brushing my hair several times I walk around, finding Riley on the couch, scrolling through my phone.

"Riley!"

He looks up, clearly amused.

"How'd you figure out my passcode?"

His blue eyes are trained on me, not answering.

"Riley."

He snaps out of his little trance.

"0,0,0,0 is a simple passcode." He snickers.

I walk over on the couch, trying to get my phone from his hand.

He moves away, laughing as I basically climb over him to grab the phone.

"Riley stop!" I whine.

He laughs, placing my phone in my hand.

"What the hell were you doing?" I ask, checking what apps he went on.

"Nothing much don't worry about it."

I roll my eyes.

"Are you going to school today?" He asks.

I shake my head. "Nah, you?"

He says no too.

I can't believe myself, I meet a guy at Taco Bell, get a ride and he ends up spending the night.

Out of all things stupid I've done I'd say this is the stupidest.

How do I get Riley to leave?

I need to go shopping but my car is still in the shop.

I'd need Harry to take me there.

Maybe I should hang out with Riley longer, he does have a car too.

"So are you gonna stay or leave or?"

I ask.

He smiles. "Whatever you want me to do, I guess."

Why does he make it so hard to decide things.

"Lets go to the park?" He asks.

I can't take down the opportunity, so I say yes.
