Our Risky Choice

Chapter 13

"Yeah. I do too." I told her. Then we walked out of the house. We were walking down the streets. It was a beautiful day. I was holding Riven's hand. We walked into a small shop with some cool unique stuff.

"What do you think of this?" Riven asked me showing me some bongos.

"Those are cool. Who are thinking give those to?" I asked him.

"My best friends Nabu." He told me.

"I say do it. I like this bookmark. It is so different. I can give it to Tecna." I said showing Riven this wooden bookmark.

We shopped for a while. It was really nice. I got to spend time with him without fighting or anything. There was no Darcy to ruin it for me. I was looking at something. When I looked up to see Riven on the phone again. Who is he talking to on the phone now? I walked over to him.

When I got over to him he got off the phone. I looked at him weird. I then asked,

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I am fine." He said giving me a smile.

"Who was that? If you don't mind me asking." I said to him. I was just hoping it was not Darcy and that he was not going to lie to me again.

"Don't worry it was nothing." He told me.

"You told me that last time. Then you lied to me." I said walking away from him. I couldn't deal with it right now. I just went back shopping.

*Riven's POV*

I watched Musa walk away from me. I feel horrible that I am hiding this stuff from her. I am just not ready for her to know about my family problems. Who I was on the phone was my mother. I walked after her. But she just acted like nothing had happened.

"Hey. I am sorry. It just I am not ready to tell something about my life. I really hope you understand." I said to her.

"I understand. I just don't like how you can't tell me what is going on. You go off and take secretly phone calls. You lied to me once. I just like hiding secrets." She told me.

"I understand that. I promise that I will not go off again. But if you can wait for a few things. I am just not ready to talk about." I asked her.

"Yes. I can wait. But not more secret phone calls." She asked me.

"No more." I told her.

She smiled at me and said,

"Thanks."

Then we went back shopping. We finished up shopping. We took everything back to our place we were staying at. It was nice day with her. I feel like I am falling for her. I am just scared of opening up and letting her in and not be the guy she wants.

She went out on the outside and sat on one of the chairs. I lend against the entry way and watched her. She was smiling and writing into a notebook she had. I then spoke up and asked,

"What do you got there?"

She looked over to me holding the notebook up and asked,

"What this?"

"Yeah that." I said walking over to him.

"It is nothing." She told me.

"Oh come on. It is something. It is not the first time I saw that notebook." I told her.

"It's nothing. Just a notebook I write in." She told me trying to keep it away from me.

I now want to get it and see what it is. I tried to get it from her. But she was quick but I am quicker. She then ran inside to get away from her. I went after her. She was laughing and smiling. I then got my arms around her from behind and picked her up.

I then put her on the couch and kissed her. She kissed me back. I then took that time and got the notebook. I then opened it to see it was her......
