❤️Riley's POV❤️
Monday morning came too fast. The weekend was a blur of swimming and parties, horseback riding, and long hikes with Alec. And now watching as the Rinder's grandparents got farther and farther away. The drive was too long but as we were and hour out of town I was so excited to see my mom, i missed everyone so much. I could see the house now, it was late and the kids were probably asleep but I couldn't wait to see mom. I jumped out of the van and mom raced out the door and wrapped me in a hug, "Mom," I said into her neck, "Riles, awe I missed you so much," she said running a hand down my hair, "I love you," I said Alec had placed my things inside and I was now looking threw my clothes. It was eleven but mom was still making me go in the morning, I sighed and finally collapsed onto my bed in a heap of tiredness I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

"We can't stop, and we won't stop," blared loudly in my ear and I rolled over slapping the top of my alarm clock, "Aarg," I groaned I was so tired, my eyes slowly blinked open and I pushed myself up slowly and with a lot of effort then forced myself out of the bed and into the bathroom. I showered and wrapped the towel around my body feeling refreshed and ready to go, "What to wear? What to wear?" I asked myself out loud and pushed through my clothes. I looked in my drawers and then glanced out the window not liking the pouring rain. I grabbed a pair of yoga pants and a green army green colour t short with a grey cardigan and black ankle boots with a gold chain to finish the look.

I rushed down the stairs knowing that I'm falling behind, I grab a quick lunch and throw it in my bag as well as a muffin and quickly down it

I rushed down the stairs knowing that I'm falling behind, I grab a quick lunch and throw it in my bag as well as a muffin and quickly down it. I dig through my suitcase and find my charger and earbuds. I grab a random coat ten race out the door and into my car. I start it and let it run for a moment before I get settled. I toss my bag in the passenger seat and look at my appearance before I back out, and start the quick drive to school. Only in the school parking lot do I remember that I forgot to see if Alec wanted a ride. I try and text him but he doesn't answer so I sprint inside the school and rush over to my locker. The school seems so quiet and eerie, I spin the locker code and unlock my locker, something crashes against the locker door, I stuff my bag into the locker and unload my arms with all the heavy books before giving my attention to the loud smash. My hand flies to my mouth as I see the small silver bracelet taped to my locker door, I pull it off and see a wooden charm in the shape of a heart with my name carved into it. I look around, and see Alec standing just up the hallway looking at my expression, I look at him with eyebrows raised and hold the bracelet up, "Happy birthday," he says, my birthday! My birthday! My birthday..........is on Friday.

"Thanks but babe you know my birthday is on Friday right?"

"Oh shit!" He shouts rushing towards me and ripping the bracelet out of my hand, he looks up smiling and grabs my wrist, "I know silly," he says attaching it to my wrist, he pokes me on the nose, "This is a pre-birthday present," he says. I look at him suspiciously, "Now come on grab your books we apparently still have class," he says, I smile and look at the bracelet, I pull my books from my locker and walk hand in hand with him to our next class. Sitting through the first two classes was boring we just discussed stuff the whole time, now I was doodling uselessly as the teacher droned on and on. Crack! Boom! I screamed, and jumped out of my chair and onto the cold floor. A few students looked around and the lights flickered then went out. I could hear the guys laughing, I slowly crawled out from beneath the desk and glared at them. Another crack and I flew into the air landing in someone's arms, they sat shocked and I cuddled close to them. When I thought it was safe I straightened my clothes and looked at who it was, Joe I missed my hand and placed it on his forehead Alec sighed, I stood up and straightened the other guys laughed louder. While the teacher tried to give instructions on where to go, and what to do, I wasn't listening just pushing the students out the door and followed their slow, casual, saunters. We went into the hallway by the office and sat down where other students were beside everyone while they laughed and told Martin and Jess. I just crossed my arms and huddled closer into Alec's comforting arms. I shivered through the day while they ate and talked often laughing at me. They called for no school tomorrow and I don't understand why they didn't just let us go. Alec drove me home because I was so scared. At home I huddled under my blankets and sat waiting for the thunder to stop at five it finished finally.

"I think it's over," Alec said, after a half hour of no thunder, I listened carefully,

"I think your right," I sighed

"I'll go home now, tell me if you need something," he said crawling across our roofs. I strolled downstairs mom had said she had a dinner date with Marie and another one of her friends, but they were taking the kids. The rain was clear in up and I decided to go workout, I changed grabbed a water and rushed into my room. I started some music and started working out, when I was finished I ate dinner and settled into my chair with a book. I soon became tired and passed out in the chair, only waking up when Alec was throwing frocks at my window. "What?" I groaned knowing he could see me, he tapped his bare wrist and I glanced at my phone. 7:30 shit! I was going to be late I jumped into a pair of shorts and t shirt, did my makeup and rushed out the door as fast as I could skipping breakfast. I was only a few seconds past the bell and I raced in and sat down. Tiana walked in front of my desk, her minions on either side of her,

"So I heard you went with Alec to his families resort," she snorts,

"Yeah," I say just as snootily

"Did you give him what he wants the most?" She asks eyeing me evilly, little does she know

"Yeah I tried he wouldn't accept it, see Tiana," I say pushing myself up to stand in front of her, "Alec doesn't want sex, you think you can control him with it but you can't." I say then the anthem starts. She turns then looks back, "That's funny," she says then points to the doorway. I look and see Alec walking in, a girl is behind him hanging off of him, another jumps in front of him and asks him something which he denies. "Get off of him!" I shout pushing them away, the teachers yelling at me, but I grab his face and pull him down to me, he kisses me after the realization of what I'm doing. His hand reaches mine and he breaks apart, places his hand over my eyes and then grabs my wrist. "Don't peek," he says, I bite my lip, "Okay now," he says after a few seconds I look down at my wrist to see another charm has been added, a small emerald jewel hangs from the bracelet as a charm. We sit down and finish the mornings classes quickly, at lunch I dig through my Caesar salad.

"So only a month left of this prison," Joe whoops, Sarah is beside him,

"Awe it was kinda fun," she says,

"Don't ever say that again," Martin jokes, I laugh,

"Riley's birthday this Friday," Alec says

"Please don't say it so loud," I say punching him in the shoulder,

"Big seventeen," Jess says

"What do you want?" Kevin asks,

"What?" I question

"Well your having a party right?" Joe asks

"No I'm just going out to dinner with some people,"

"Oh come on," Joe sighs, I shrug,

"I don't want anything I mean if you guys wanted to go for dinner or something," I fumble with the idea, they all seem disappointed and I continue eating. Laughing at the odd comment or joke.
