'It's good to be nice once in a while; you never know what could happen at any given second; in any given minute; in any given hour; in any given day; in any given month; in any given year. So just be nice once in a while.'

Ryleigh's P.O.V

After I got back from Matthew's house I kind of expected him to text me automatically and thank me. But he didn't. I guess some people don't appreciate what others do for them. I'm still going to be a nice person and pay for everything because of the simple fact I told him I was and he seems like he needs a distraction from everything.

I need fresh air even though I've been walking almost all day. I need to just go to 'my spot' it's secretive, I'm pretty sure nobody comes here anymore because it's so abandoned. I've only seen a couple of people here before but usually I'm alone. I just need time to think. Think about my life.

I finally reach the top of 'my spot' and nobody is here which is good. I walk up by a tree, it's a beautiful tree, it has like orangish purple leaves, it's beautiful. This whole scenery is beautiful. The grass isn't the best but the water below is wonderful, I want to go swimming in there one day. One day. I sit beneath the tree and pick at some leaves, and then that's when I go in my daze.

'Everybody has left me for other people, I want someone to stay with me. I just need one person, I don't want them to use me or take advantage of me because I have so much money not to brag. I try to spend it on people so I don't spend it all on myself, that's why I bought Matthew a phone. I see it as a good deed. I want to make the world a better place but I'm scared to do it alone. I'm a fool, I'm stupid, I'm crazy, I'm a freak, I'm depressed, I'm all these things but who cares? A lot of people try to be my friend just so they can use my money, but at school they call me all types of names. Some people say I have sugar daddies that give me a large amount of money a week, which is a total lie. Why do people want to ruin me? Why can't I be treated like a normal person cause that's all I am. I'm normal. I'm just a teenager that lives by herself because everybody that she loves leaves her and shuts her out of their lives after they get what they want. I have my own home because my 'Parents' left me to be alone, they moved to another continent, I think Australia. They disown me. Why? I really don't know, but it hurts. I'm always alone, that's why I feel the need to be nice and helpful some-' I got cut out of my thoughts by leaves crinkling.

I look around at my surroundings and I see a figure, kind of tall. I squint my eyes to see a figure wearing all black. "Hello." The figure says. " Uh hi." I respond, I'm not gonna lie I'm terrified. "Ryleigh, right?" The figure ask, I'm pretty sure it's a guy though. "Um yeah who are you?" I nervously ask. "It Matthew." He says. Matthew isn't this tall, well I don't think he is. "No, it's not." I murmur.

This is kinda scary. If It was him I would be able to tell by his voice. "Yes it is, I swear. I was going to text you but, I didn't know what to say. What was I suppose to say 'Hey Ryleigh, thanks for the phone. You tried to help but I don't need it. Oh and thanks for stalking me.' That would be mean. I didn't know what to say." He says getting kInd of aggravated. "I mean if that's how you felt then, okay. I was just trying to be nice. I accidentally broke your phone and I just wanted to be nice and get you a ne-" I got caught off by him. "So you buy me an expensive phone. You buy a complete stranger an expensive phone. That's smart and nice. Why? Why did you bother to follow me and waste your money on me? Please tell me. I wanna know." He yells the first part then calms down. Why can't he just accept it? I was just trying to be nice to him. After-all I was the one who made him drop his phone.

"I spent money on you, I did not waste it. I spent money on you because I-" before I could finish my sentence he cut me off once again. "Because you felt sorry for me? Is that why?" He sounds really angry. What is up with this guy? He seemed so happy and perfect. I'm getting annoyed now.
