Chloe's POV
"Last year, my dad diagnosed with cancer. My mom couldn't stand it, so she left. Before 6 months my dad's condition went from bad to worse and after 1 month he died." I say, shaking, tears running down my cheeks. I haven't really speak about that to anyone, but now, I thought that I would tell them about it and to be honest, I feel a lot better.
I see Riley sitting up from the other side of the room and running up to me for a hug. Soon she was followed by everyone, saying me encouraging things.
"Why didn't you told me about it? I had told you that I would be there for you whenever you wanted me." Riley says softly.
"I couldn't call you all of a sudden, after 2 years for such a reason, Ri. I just couldn't." I say, tears yelling up my eyes again. She hugs me tightly. I hug her back. Ugh, how much I missed this.Riley's POV
"Riley, I gotta go home, I'm not feeling really good." Em says and I can see that she isn't okay.
"Oh.. okay. If anything happens don't forget to call me okay? Love you." I say, hugging her.
"Okay, love you too." She says. She hugs and exchanges numbers with everyone.
"Emily, before you leave, I want to announce something." Miss Kate says.
"Guys, listen. Um.. eh.. I called you." She says, looking down. I hear gasps around me.
"Why?" James asks.
"Because I want one of you to be studio head. I'm getting pretty old and I don't think I can manage this anymore. I know that whoever is going to be the studio head, this studio will be in 'good hands'." She says smiling.
I'm shocked.She leaves the studio keys' on the mini table outside of her office and leaves.
"What did just happened?" Eldon asks, his eyes widened.
"I don't know." Giselle responds.
"Guys, I think we should call it a night. It's getting really late." West says. I look at the clock on the wall. 12:55. Wow.
We exchange numbers, saying we'll gather up again tomorrow at 9 p.m.As I'm outside from the studio, when I remember that Emily brought me here. How am I going to go home? No buses are going to pass from here at 1 a.m.
Seconds later, I feel a light tap on my shoulder. I turn my head to see James, a soft smile on his face. He's so hot, oh my goodness.
"I.. Um.. Do you want a shift home?" He asks nervously. He's so cute when he gets nervous. What are you thinking Riley?
"Um.. sure.. As long as it doesn't bother you" I answer, smiling.He leads me to his car and opens the door for me. Then he runs to his side and gets in the car.
The ride home was silent. Just some glances at each other now and then.
When we reach my apartment, I lift my head to look at him. And then my eyes met his beautiful chocolate eyes.
"Thank you." I mumble.
"Don't even worry about it." He replies. I giggle at this.
"Do you wanna come to my apartment for a little catch up?" I say nervously.Well, here goes nothing.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYOOOOOONE💗💗
