Riva's Pov.
I woke up this morning feeling a shy smile come across my face.
It felt weird smiling again, i haven't felt happy for a very long time. It was difficult to be happy while staying with my mom. She was a drugged up alcholic, who didn't care about anything. The only time she was happy, was when her next high was going to be.
My fists started to clench, i hated that woman! i wouldn't even call her my mom. would a mom lock you in your room, with no food or water, and just the floor to sleep on. i don't think so.
my eyes started to water, memories were coming back to me. Her hitting me, making me go to parties that i didn't even want to go to. leaving me for weeks, often months by myself.
before i know it i was bursting into tears. I hated showing any feelings infront of anyone. i didn't want them to pity me, and think i was vulnerable. But my mom always did that to me. She made me feel alone, weak, angry.
Before i could force the tears back into my eyes, Tay burst in my room, looking frightened, scared, worried. She knew something was wrong when i was upset, Because i never cried. Ever.
'Beccs! what's wrong?!? did someone come into the room, did someone try to rape you?!, kidnap you?!, drug you! OH MY GOD. they cut off your tongue didn't they! you're not talking! i'm going to hunt them down.. and.. and.. cut their tongue off!'
i couldn't help but laugh. She wouldn't hurt a fly, nevermind cut someone's tongue off. i couldn't help but lean up against my bed post and, pretend that my tongue was missing, and try to talk but no words we're coming out.
Her whole face went white.. She always was the guliable type. Believes everything she's told. It's quite funny messing with her.
Even though it's funny, i felt guilty messing with her. which reuins the whole 'messing with her' thing.
'okay,since you look a lot like casper right know , look' i point to my tongue and show her clearly that my tongue was still there, and intacted.
She didn't look so happy with my joke.. because before i knew it, she's running at me full speed and pushes me off the bed, and into the side table. which btw is m-e-t-a-l. saying that it was painful, was an understatement. Tay landed on me too.. for a small girl, she was heavy!
'Tay, get the hell off me now!, if anything is broken,even bruised, i'm not going to hesitate to tell the whole school that you're really a man'
i said this with a serious tone, even though i would never do that! she'd believe me.
with what i said she backed off, and held her hand out to me, she was a total suckup. if i told her to be my slave for the week, otherwise i would shave her hair off. she would be my slave.
'Okay okay, okay, i'm really sorry! i didn't expect you to go into the side table'
she was so dense sometimes. if someone is going to push you off the bed, in the same direction of where the side table is. i'm going to hit it.
i raised my eyebrows at her.
'so you just expected me to go through the table? okay i'm amazing, but i'm not a freaking wizard. oh btw my date is today, so if i find one bruise. i will be the hulk got it?' i crossed my arms, and tapped my foot, to make sure she was fully aware of the consequences.
She seemed kind of too happy that i was going on a date with tai.. it was a little strange. and harry was the total opposite, when tai told him he was going on a date with me. his face turned to a scowl, and he seemed to be a little on edge for the rest of the day. it didn't really make sence, he hated me! didn't he?
