Playing with fire

Finding this feeling

RIVERS POV

"Stop messing with my damn radio!" I yell at Daisy, her music taste is just depressing.

"I don't want to listen to your dumb Trap music anymore. I can only stand listening to it for so long." She complains and i shake my head. 

"You listen to fucking dentist office music." I say to her and she gasps.

"I do not!" She yells at me and then starts to laugh because she knows its true.

"I met Jeremy's girlfriend today. We ditched school together." She tells me and lowers the music. She has a sad expression in her eyes and i cant decipher why.

"I didn't know you were such a bad ass." I joked and she gave me a faint smile, I knew something was wrong. 

I pulled over to the Playground in the center of town and told her to hop out of the car. When she opened her door i grabbed her hand and pulled her to the entrance. The sun was just starting to set and we both got on a swing and sat there quietly.

"She told me to watch out for Jade." She said to me and i gave her a questioning expression.

"Who did?" 

"Reyna, River. Reyna did. And i don't know who the hell this girl is, or if she is your girlfriend or something but i do not appreciate to be told to watch out for some bitch. I already have enough going on in my life as it is." She tells me and I'm fucking pissed. Reyna shouldn't have said any of that to Daisy. Fuck i hate seeing her upset. It fucking tears me apart.

"One, she is not my girlfriend, nor will she ever be my fucking girlfriend. Two, she was my out. When i wanted to forget about my sister, and everything that was happening around me, i would go to her. We would have sex and that was it. But you Daisy, you help me remember. When I'm with you all i ever want to fucking do is remember, and it scares the shit out of me. We barely know each other but I feel so connected to you its insane." I look at her wide brown eyes and a tear drops. Fuck i didn't mean to make her cry. What do i do now? Im really bad with crying girls. They're pretty fucking terrifying.

"Come here." i say and pull her into my arms. She sits on my lap as i hold her. I wipe a tear that falls from her eye and i kiss her. I kiss her with all the life i have left in me, because when I'm with her i feel alive.

I get home late after dropping Daisy off and see mom and Johnny asleep on the couch. I pick John up slowly so i don't wake him and tuck him in, then go back to the living room and quietly put a blanket on my mom. 

I sigh as i make my way towards my room and fall onto my bed. I want Daisy, I want to be more than just another hookup to her. Yet thats ironic because with all other girls its the other way around. But Daisy is different, Daisy is just so fucking different.

DAISYS POV

I help him remember, and that scares me so much because he helps me forget. I don't feel alone anymore, but that needs to stop. He can't rely on me. I am not reliable. I mean, nobody has stuck with me for long enough to realize that. But i know, because whenever i start to get close, and whenever someone starts to care, I run. I run before they can abandon me, I am so sick of being left behind by everyone. Nobody has a chance to leave when you never stay. I know running doesn't make anything better, Fuck i taught myself that. But i also know that i can't have this feeling anymore. I just feel like i am constantly just a bump along the road for everyone. Nobody wants me along for their whole journey.
