Riker's POV

It took all the courage for me to do this...

"What do you think you're playing at HUH?!" all the anger and confusion taking over me

I didn't even wait to see anyone's reaction cuz before I knew it, I was out the door with everyone calling my name behind me

That one place I could go to clear my head and think properly without anyone disturbing me, our treehouse

Yeah, our old treehouse. It's still in a pretty good condition, we rarely come up here. Scratch that, I was the only one ever since we were kids

I climbed up and made myself comfortable, sitting on the trap door and leaning against the tree bark

I thought I could trust Mikayla. I thought it would be different for once. My past girlfriends other than Clarissa, were pretty much all sluts who wanted in, LITERALLY. But I'm still virgin, I break up with them barely after a week

Mikayla toyed with my feelings in a way. She sang a song knowing it would affect me cuz she knew that it sounded. Wait, she didn't... Or did she?

Wait what am I saying? She can't know... So that means... I just dissed on her for no reason... Oh SNAP!

It could've been a mere coincidence or something! I just made one of the STUPIDEST mistakes a guy could possibly make

MAN I BETTER GO APOLOGIZE TO HER!

I climbed out of the treehouse and ran back to the basement

Before I could ever reach the door, I felt a tight grip on my shoulder pulling me back

I turned around to see a my brothers, Ratliff and a fuming Rocky

"You really messed up man..." Ratliff sighed in disappointment, pushing past me and walking to the basement

"What's wrong with you?" Ross scoffed and followed behind Ratliff

"Dude, she's upset! Scratch that! TORN! It could've been a coincidence or something but NO! You just had to go off on her like a ticking time bomb and take it out on her! I thought you were better than that!" Rocky whispered-yelled, considering he didn't want the girls, who were most likely in the basement, to hear

He stood there glaring at me until Ryland started pulling him away

"Likely mistake but you better go apologize" Ryland said simply before pulling the steaming Rocky away

I stood outside the basement door and heard muffled sobs

"I knew that was too far Del. I shouldn't've suggested it. I'm so stupid. I always go all out on things and they end up in a mess. No wonder Justin hated me. No wonder no guy ever liked me. I'm so messed up. Riker probably thinks that way too now..." she sobbed

I couldn't take it anymore. I just broke the girl of my dreams. And I'm just standing here and doing nothing? Not anymore...

I barged into the room and got into the stage and took an electric guitar on my way

I looked down into the so called crowd, more like my siblings and Ratliff all glaring up at me other than a confused, shocked and very upset tear stained Mikayla

I started the song...

You're so pretty when you cry when you cry
Wasn't ready to hear you, say goodbye
Now you're tearing me apart, tearing me apart
You're tearing me apart

You're so London, your own style, your own style
We're together it's so good, so girl why
Are you tearing me apart, tearing me apart
You're tearing me apart

Did I do something stupid, yeah girl if I blew it
Just tell me what I did, let's work through it
There's gotta be some way, to get you to want me
Like before

'Cause no one ever looked so good
In a dress and it hurts, 'cause I know you won't be mine tonight
No one ever makes me feel like you do when you smile,
Baby tell me how to make it right

Now all of my friends say it's not really worth it, but even if that's true,
No one in the world could stop me from not moving on
Baby even if I wanted to, nobody compares to you.

We're so Paris when we kissed, when we kissed
I remember the taste of your lipstick
Now your tearing up my heart, tearing up my heart
You're tearing up my heart

Did I do something stupid, Yeah girl if I blew it
Just tell me what I did, let's work through it
There's gotta be some way to get you to want me
Like before

'Cause no one ever looked so good
In a dress and it hurts, 'cause I know you won't be mine tonight
No one ever makes me feel, like you do, when you smile,
Baby tell me how to make it right

Now all of my friends say it's not really worth it, but even if that's true
No one in the world could stop me from not moving on,
Baby even if I wanted to,

Nobody compares to you

Oh Woah- oh oh oh oh oh x3

Nobody compares to you

Theres gotta be some way to get you to want me
Like before....

'Cause no one ever looked so good
In a dress and it hurts 'cause I know you wont be mine tonight
No one ever makes me feel like you do when you smile,
Baby tell me how to make it right

Now all of my friends say it's not really worth it, but even if that's true
No one in the world could stop me from not moving on,
Baby even if I wanted to

Nobody compares to you...

I finished off staring into Mikayla's eyes and jumped off the stage with the guitar strung behind me back

"Mike, it's not true. No one hates you. I don't hate you. I'm sorry about my sudden outburst earlier. It's just, the songs you sang sounded just so similar to some other which reminded me of Clarissa and I just got so angry and confused. I'm sorry I took it out on you. I just felt like you were somehow playing with my feelings which I know you wouldn't cuz you wouldn't do that. I'm really REALLY sorry..." I apologized, staring into her hazel brown eyes

"It's okay Rike. I forgive you" she croaks from the crying, giving me a watery smile

"So we're cool?" I ask, wiping the remaining tears off her face

"Yeah we're cool" she nods, smiling warmly, causing my heart to beat a mile a minute

"Auslly moment much?" Rydel chirps, finally everyone else is okay now

"HERE COMES THAT MOVIE SCENE, ONE YOU HATE, SO CLICHÉ!!" Ross sings, running onto the stage

We all laugh and start rehearsing starting with none other than, Here Comes Forever...
