❤️Riley's POV❤️
The rest of my summer is pretty bleh between seeing Sarah and Jess and Adam nothing really happens, except for this. The text scares me, as I lay in Adam's bed tired I push myself up and stare at the words on the screen I quickly dress, "Hey where are you going?" Adam asks his abs glowing in the sunlight I give him a quick kiss.

"I've got to go I'll see you later," I rush up his stairs and out the front door over to my house. "Mom?" I ask,

"He's there in the hospital Marie just texted me," mom says

"Oh my god, I've got to go," I grab my car keys and jump into my car racing towards the hospital over the speed limit, I arrive at the hospital and sprint into the hospital tuning at full speed a run a hand through my hair, "Alec Rinder?" I ask immediately,

"Yes he's in room 437 on the fourth floor, elevators are down the hall on the right,"

"Thank you," I rush down to the elevators and hit the button impatient. The elevator goes slow and its agitating when I arrive on the fourth floor I don't go to the reception and just rush to his room, I stand outside the door for a second and then slowly push open the door. As I walk into the room slowly I can hear the slow beep of a heartbeat on the machine loving the noise. Before I come around the corner every memory of mine we ever made comes into mind including our fights and slowly coming to an end when we broke up. One thing is in common his smile which is amazing, but now I don't see that ridiculously amazing smile. A tear slips from my eye, when I see his bruised eye and scratches on his face his leg in a cast, and wrap around his ribcage. More tears follow and before I know it I'm quietly sobbing, I grab his cold hand and kneel beside his bed, I leave a kiss on his hand before pushing myself up and giving him a quiet kiss on the lips. I straighten myself and turn and start leaving, "Why?" He asks in a scratchy voice my voice hitches and I wipe some tears away,

"Alec I was just leaving," I say with a smile,

"Why'd you kiss me?" He asks,

"Are you okay?" I ask avoiding his question,

"Do I look okay?" He asks frustrated,

"No," I say, he looks angry to see me, "What happened?" I ask

"Didn't someone say something to you?" He asks snootily

"Of course they did Alec! God dammit! I want to know what the fuck is happening with you!" I scream

"You want to know? You really do?" He asks angry written on his face,

"Yes please do me a favour and elk me what is going on," I say

"I'm still in love with you," he says softly his face softening and when I don't respond he looks away, "You've moved on and you're serious with him, I haven't,"

"But I thought...."

"Well you thought wrong, Devin!" He shouts

"I'm sorry," I say,

"Just leave," he says,

"What?" I ask shocked,

"Just leave Devin, leave me alone," he says

"Not until you call me by my first name Alec," I say letting more tears slip down my face,

"What?" He asks, looking at me then,

"Do it call me Riley," I say

"What difference would it make?" He asks

"Just do it Alec!" I scream not even knowing why I'm making him do it, a tear slips from his eye,

"Riley," he says and I turn storming out of the room, I hear him calling down the hallway but I continue rushing home and slamming my window closed and pull my curtains shut tears falling dramatically. I hate him. I hate that he does this to me, ever since I started dating Adam I've felt there was something that wasn't right could I still love him? 
<><><><><The Next Week><><><><>
I lay on my bed as my phone buzzes with another text, I check,
Adam: Babe what's going on haven't talked all week?!
Alec: Please come back
Sarah: We need to talk
Jess: Do you want to baby shower organize with me?
The only one I choose to answer is Jess,
Me: Sure
I throw my phone down, and stare at the ceiling,
Jess: Okay great, Friday at lunch?
Me: sure
Sarah: I know your alive answer me!!!
Sarah: I'm coming over
Me: No don't,
Sarah: And I'm bringing Jessica!!
Adam: I have to go please text me back!!!
Me: Hi I'm fine
Adam: That's great dinner tomorrow?
Me: Sure
"Riley what the hell is going on!" Sarah screams rushing up the stairs, she has a cute little baby bump.

"Alec has been texting us like crazy," Jess says pushing me up,

"Okay so I went to see him," I start and tell them about everything which makes me mad, "And he keeps texting me, I hate him so much, but something hasn't been quite right with Adam although I'm really into him I really like Adam, okay? That's it, he told me to leave him alone so I did," I say

"Woah that is confusing," Jess says

"I'm glad I'm only having a baby," Sarah says jokingly which I don't laugh to because I'm to heated up,

"Maybe you need to break up with Adam and just have a little single time," Jess says

"No because I like Adam," I say

"But if you have feelings for Alec-" Jess starts

"Don't even go there I don't like Alec, I don't," I say steamily I'm pacing right now

"Well then I don't know what to tell you," Jess says laying back on my bed,

"Maybe you should just leave him alone like you said," Sarah muses

"Okay fine then it's settled no Alec ever again, and you know what? I'm fine with that," I say crossing my arms and sitting down on the day bed I peak through the curtains.

"And that includes thinking and seeing him," Sarah says, closing the curtains. They leave and keep texting me making sure I'm not thinking about Alec even though when they mention him I think of him which I explain to them. "Riley we are going to see Alec, are you coming?!" Mom shouts up the stairs, "No!" I scream back I think she's been made aware by someone. I can hear her leave and I get back to working out. I take Bentley for a walk and then arrive back at home awhile later.

   Fifteen days after Alec's accident he's allowed home and I watch as he is helped into the house with his leg still casted. I groan and sit on my bed watching my Netflix and eating popcorn with Bentley we decided the baby shower would be in her basement and it would be mostly family the doctor says although this is abnormal according to her case but the baby is growing fine and healthy which is great news for them. I've seen Adam a couple times but he is camping for the rest of summer so I'll see him at school. Which is in the next week. My phone buzzes again,
Alec: Can you open your window?
5 minutes later
Alec: At least come over?
10 minutes later
Alec: I'm tired of you ignoring me, what did I say?
15 minutes later
Alec: Was it cause I told you to leave me alone??
20 minutes later
Alec: Listen I'm sorry I'll see you around Riley Devin.......
