The Right One • Kevin Keller

Chapter 3: Wrong Expectations

Two days passed till i could finally leave the hospital. At one point i was excited cause finally i can go home but that also meant that i need to go to school tommorow.

When me and my dad arrived home nobody was there. Sierra was out for some lawyer work and Josie left a note on the fridge that she was out with Valerie and Melody.

I decided since i didn't have anything better to do to go for back to school shopping. The store wasn't far away from my house so i went on feet. Everyone can say anything they want but buying school supplies is one of the best things in life.

There were so many choices of notebooks , it was so hard to choose. I could spend hours just searching for the perfect school supplies. "Kevin ?" I heard a familiar voice. I turned around and saw Reggie. "Hey Reggie." I said not sure if i should smile or not.

"What are you doing here ?" He asked me. He was looking at me in a kinda weird way. "Buying school supplies. Is that so weird?" I asked. "You are coming back to school ?" He was starting to annoy me with his questions. "Yes , why ? Is there a problem?". I asked annoyed.

"No , its just that i didn't expect you would come back. I need to go now. See ya" Reggie walked away till he disappeared from my sight. I sighed and continued my shopping. Last thing left was choosing a school bag. I started looking for the aisle with the bags. When i found it i stated looking.

I couldn't choose between a orange and a yellow school bag. They were both so pretty. I decided to buy the yellow one cause it had a free notebook with motivational quotes for free with it. I wasn't paying attention while walking towards the pay desk which ended up with me bumping into someone.

Everything the boy was holding in his hands fell to the ground. "I'm so sorry." I apologized and went to grab one of the notebooks that he dropped but he went to grab the same one so our hands touched. I couldn't help but look at him. He had dyed blonde hair, yellowish towards grass green eyes and his underlip was kinda bigger that his upper lip.

I couldn't help but blush. When we finished picking up everything i gave him everything back. "Thanks" the boy smiled. "No problem and I'm sorry again!" I said and then just started walking away. I couldn't help but smile my whole way out of the store. That boy gave me such a good vibe it felt like he was the light in a atmosphere of darkness.

When i paid for everything i decided to go to pop's for a hamburger. When i walked in the shop i saw Betty , Jughead and another man sitting in one of the booths. They looked towards me but i just ignored them and went to the other way. I ordered my food and sat in one of the last booths.

Some minutes of wating Pop's gave me my food and i started eating. Outside it slowly started getting darker. Riverdale has definitely changed the last years. I miss the times where nothing weird was happening. When i just went to school , my dad was still the sheriff and there were no murderers and stupid games that make you die.

The time where you could just walk on the street without checking behind your shoulder. My thoughts got interrupted my a notification on my phone.

I ate some last fries and went towards pop to pay. "Its already paid boy" pops said. I looked confused. "What ? By who ?" I asked him. "He just told me that i should say the accident boy." Pop said and then turned around and started making some milkshakes. I couldn't help but smile.
