Rileys POV:
Me and James walk into his moms house. Deboradh smiles.
'Riley! James! Hi!'
We hug her.
'Congradulations on winning nationals!'
'Thanks!' I smile.
Kevin approaches us with someone who Im guessing is his girlfriend.
I hug him.
'Hey Ri'
'Hey Kev'
I look at the girl hes with.
'You must be his girlfriend. Im Riley. Im sorry I dont know your name but James wouldnt tell me anything about you!'
She laughs.
'Im Jessica. Jess for short. And Ive actually heard allot about you'
'You have?'
'Yeah. Your all that James talks about'
I smile.
'Ill be upstairs getting my things' James says.
'Ill come'
I follow him up to his room.
'I remember this place. And it hasnt changed a bit'
He laughs.
We pack his things in silence.
'Is it true what Jess saud?' I ask him.
'About what?'
'That all you ever do is talj about me?'
He looks at me.
'Y-yeah. It is'
'Even during everything that happened in the last few weeks?'
He nods.
'Why? I mean I know you hurt me but I did too. Kicking you out like that was wrong and I didnt even give you a chance. And yet you talk about me'
'Your all thats ever on my mind Ri. I think about you every second of every day. Ill never stop thinking about you'
I smile.
'Thats sweet'
'Um...I told Jess about what happened between us'
'Why?'
'Because she was just there. And I neded to speak to someone'
I nod.
'Its okay. I get it'
He smiles.
'Okay. But I think its time to make some sort of deal'
I look at him.
'What kind?'
'I never want this to happen again, so why dont we make a promise to eachother. If theres ever somethong bothering me, Ill tell you and if theres something bothering you, youll tell me. And no more secrets'
I nod.
'Thats fair'
He kisses me.
We finish packing. A knock comes on the door.
'Lunch is ready' Jess smiles.
