Chapter 1

Weeks later...

Riker POV

"Rik, come on. It's been a week. You should be over her by now," Rocky said, pulling the blankets off of me.

"Well it's hard to get over someone you loved with all your heart!" I said, crying more.

Hot tears were streaming down my face. I was really upset and mad at the same time. She promised me!

Flashback

"What else do you have to worry about?"

"Losing you..."

"Rik... You're not going to lose me. Especially not after you just saved my life from Macy. I love you, Riker. And I'm not leaving anytime soon. Don't worry."

"Promise?"

"I promise, Riker."

End of Flashback

"Riker, look. Mom said you have to get out of bed. She's worried about you."

"Yeah, well I'm worried about me too."

"Riker, I would suggest getting up so you don't have to go back to being babysat all the time."

I sat up.

"But I haven't even done anything wrong! I'm taking my medication, I haven't cut, and I'm eating 3 meals a day!"

"Riker, mom wants you downstairs. Don't argue with me. If it were up to me, I'd let you stay up here forever."

Rocky left, and I sighed. I was only in my underwear, so I pulled on some pajama pants, and then went downstairs. I found mom in the kitchen, and sat down at the table.

"What do you want?" I asked, laying my head on the table.

"I want you dressed, and back down here in 5 minutes," mom said, walking over to me.

I sighed when her footsteps stopped right by me.

"Sit up."

I sighed again, and lifted my head. Mom put her hand under my chin, and made me look at her.

"You've been crying again, haven't you?"

"Maybe..."

"Riker, it's just a girl. It's a breakup. I know it hurts, but you have to move on."

"Do you know how hard that is when Paige is here all the time!? She's here right now! I heard her!"

"Riker, it's not her or Rydel's fault that they became close friends. You're just going to have to deal with it."

"Yeah? Well I was having a much easier time dealing with it when I was allowed to hide in my room and not come out."

"Riker. I don't want the attitude."

"Yeah? Well I don't want you to tell me to just move on! It's not that easy!"

"Riker."

Mom was giving me one of her mom looks. I rolled my eyes.

"Don't roll your eyes at me, Riker Anthony!"

"Sorry mom..."

"Go change."

"Fine..."

I went back upstairs. I passed Paige in the hall, and we just kind of looked at each other awkwardly. We never really talked to each other since the... break up...
