Friend Of A EX Friend// Reece Bibby

Chapter 2

Cassidy's P.O.V:

I close the front door and see my dad, passed out and an empty beer bottle still in his hand.

Probably his 5th or 6th...

I thought to myself as I quickly and quietly head up the stairs.

What the hell is wrong with everyone?! Riley is mad at me for NO reason! George hasn't been talking to me a lot..neither have the others! And Julia! She would always have conversations with me! Where did that go?

I soon drift off to sleep and get some shut-eye before the big day.

I just hope that my dad doesn't show up drunk on his ass like he does EVERY occasion I tell him about!

George's P.O.V:

I know I said that I wanted space! But I kind of feel bad that I didn't even wait with Blake. Cause I was afraid she might jump on me. LITERALLY!

I look at the clock and see that it's 5:45. I stop playing with my dogs, Toffee, and Pheobe, and head for my shower in my room.

Time for a 2-hour snooze fest just to get a piece of paper!.

[Before Graduation Ceremony]

Reece's P.O.V:

I can't believe that I'm finally leaving this school!

Is what I kept thinking of as I'm playing with the tassels on my cap.

"Ready to go?" My mum asks me, as I'm still judging myself in my full-length mirror.

"Yes, I am!" I walk out of my room, my mum following me, and she drops me off at the school first so she can go back and get herself and everyone else ready.

When I'm, at the front doors to the auditorium, I take out my phone to text the boys to see if they're almost here.

Reecey Boy: Hey! Where are you guys?

Gsgsmiffy: I'm literally a block away from the school!

Audrey: I'm not even finished getting ready!😂

Reecey Boy: Great job!😂

Gsgsmiffy: We'll see ya there...eventually...😂

(End Group Chat)

I put my phone in my back pocket and when I look up, I see Riley by herself. All upset.

I wanna talk to her. But I know I'll probably say something stupid. I mean, LOOK AT HER! SHE'S BEAUTIFUL! 

She looks over my way and throws a small smile and waves. I smile as well and I can feel my cheeks getting hot.

She looks away and she continues leaning on the pillar alone. Looking out the window as well.

I was THIS close about to go and say 'Hi', but then I see George, speeding walk towards me, looking like a penguin.

"Hey mate!" George says to me.

"Hey." I sigh a bit, looking at my shoes.

"Are SERIOUSLY upset that you're leaving this school?!"

"No! I could care less!. That's not the reason why I'm upset though.."
