Jiley the next step

Riley's POV

I walk into my house. Emily looks up at me.
"What's wrong" I was confused on how she new something was up till I remembered she was my sister. She can tell when I'm sad, happy, or any other emotion.
"You were right. I was going home by the short way, you know by studio-B and James was in there kissing Beth" she give me a sad look and comes and rubs my back. "How did you know he was going to hurt me"
"I over heard him talking with Beth, he said he liked her and he just had to find away to let you down easy"
"Oh" I look down. "So all the times he made me laugh, he smirked at me, he took me on that date were all fake" a tear rolls down my cheek as I talk about the date.
"I actually never heard much about that date"
"He took me to studio-A and he had a travel around the world date theme" another tear.
"Oh sorry you don't have to talk about it know" but I keep going.
"he danced with me" Emily looked confused. Like she didn't know what to think. She thinks the date is cute but she also is mad at James.
"We kissed" that was all I could take I burst out in tears. Emily raps her hands around me. Then Michelle walks in. I know she lives just down the street but why is she here. I realized I left the door open.
"riley are you ok" she asked quietly
"James is a jerk!" I say and I run upstairs. I hear Emily and Michelle talking so Emily must be explaining what's going on. I also hear the door close. A few minutes later they both come up to my room. They sit on my bed on ether side of me.
"I thought James liked you, actually I can't even tell you how many time he came to me saying ether he needed help with girl advice or saying that he didn't know what he would do without you" Michelle said.
"Wait so you mean.."
"I told him if he's taking you out on a date to make it rememberable"
"You told him that. And right when I thought he thought of something sweet on his own" I get up and look out my window.
"Well he thought of the traveling theme he just needed extra help" she explained.
"I got to talk with James" I say and walk out. I walk down the street and turn the corner. I go up his steps and knock. He answers the door.
"I want you to tell me the truth what really happened." I say.
"Fine. Beth knew that Emily was listening to our conversation so she told me to say that I liked her. Then she made me kiss her when she knew you were leaving"
"But why did you agree to all that"
"Don't even worry about"
"Well of course I'm going to worry about it!"
"Chill riles" he grabs my shoulder and pulls me into a hug. Before I could stop myself I kiss him on the cheek. He let's go and looks at me.
"Oh, um, I was just-" I stutter but James cuts me off. He puts his hands around my waist and kisses me. On the lips. I rap my arms around his neck and we stay like that. When we pull apart we notice his younger sister Jenna staring at us. She probable thought it was gross since she was 8. She smiles and starts singing at the top of her lungs.
"RILEY AND JAMES SITTING IN A TREE K-I-S-S-I-N-G!!!" She smirks and runs up the stairs.
I walk away. I turn back to see him smiling at me. I blush and keep walking.
