Riley POV

I rolled out of bed after turning off my alarm to walk the dogs.  I picked up Kenzi on my way down the stairs, and when I put her down, she started going berzerk!  I placed a leash on Cass's collar, and eventually managed to do the same with Kenzi.  I took them outside, and made sure to close the door as quietly as possible, as to not wake anyone up.  

I was walking down the block toward the park, when I saw something slam into the willow tree.  It was the girl from before.  I wonder what she was doing next to the park at 5 in the morning?  I asked her who she was, and the second she said her name, I instantly remebered.

"RI!!! It's me! RILEY!!"  I squealed to her.  

We talked for a while until Ri said she had to do something for her mom in the park.  She kept stuttering, so I could tell she was making it all up.  I mean, I know when my friends are lying to me, so after she ran into the park, I peeked around the corner of the willow tree to see her flying around.  Ri was a fairy this whole time!?  Well, we all have our secrets...

I went back home after discovering this new thing about a friend I've known for so long, but never knew it.  I closed my door, and locked it shut.  I closed the blinds after flipping on the light switch.  I stretched out my LARGE angel like wings.  They stretched across the room, and knocked over my nightstand in the process.  I heard a knocking at my door, so I quickly folded my wings to my back, and unlocked the door.  Not even my mother knew I had wings.  It had always been my secret that I told nobody.  But I felt as though I had to tell at least Ri, because she would understand how hard it was to keep a secret like this.  How people would think I was a freak, and didn't belong anywhere I went...
