Darling, You'll Be Okay

Day 6

*Sorry this update took so long to write guys, I have just been dealing with some family stuff and school, I promise the next update will not take so long*

I turned off my alarm and rolled out of bed. "Riley, it's time to get up." I said through my yawn.

He groaned and rolled over on the floor and blinked a couple times. "Good morning." He stretched before standing up and looking at himself in my mirror.

He fixed his hair and turned to look at me, still in my pajamas. My hair was a complete mess. I kinda laughed before looking at the clock. It was 7:20, school started in 20 minutes.

"Shit I don't have time to go home and change before school." He said starting to get slightly flustered.

"Then don't." I said simply and shrugged.

"Don't change clothes before school?" He asked looking at me like I had lost my mind.

"No, don't go to school." I said walking out of my room.

Riley followed like I knew he would. "Well what are we gonna do today then?" I walked into the kitchen and grabbed my cereal from the pantry and a bowl from the cabinet.

"Who said we were gonna do anything?" I said lifting the milk out of the fridge not looking at him.

"Well I just assumed.." He trailed off. He rubbed the back of his neck.

I made my bowl of cereal and sat on the counter. "I was just kidding Ri."

He silently roamed my house waiting for me to finish eating. I set my bowl in the sink before finding Riley looking at old pictures of me.

I walked behind him, I hugged him and peaked around his arm. He was looking at the picture of me from my fourth birthday, I was dressed as Aurora. Of coarse I was, Sleeping Beauty. I smiled looking up at Riley, I saw tears begin to form at the creases of his eyes before he quickly blinked them away. He carefully set the picute back in it's place. He lifted the arm that I was resting my face on and wrapped it around me.

I sighed burying my face into his ribcage area. He smelled like Riley. There was no way to ddescribe it except a mixture of good music taste and expensive cologne, which is weird because he never wore cologne.

"So what are your thoughts for today?" He asked.

Not moving I said "Well for me, I'm thinking to do one of two things."

"Those two things would be?" He asked getting nervous, he knew I was up to no good.

"We could stay here and have a movie day. Booooring." I said moving away from our hug.

"Or..?"

"Or we could go to the beach." I said almost asking him.

"School it is!" He said, I knew he wasn't going to want to go.

"Pleaaaaaase Riley?" I said basically begging, I hadn't been to the beach in ages and the weather was perfect today.

He sighed heavily.

"I'll go change." I said grinning from ear to ear. I skipped to my room. I opened my drawer and picked out my favorite bikini top and a pair of denim shorts. I slipped a loss fitting shirt over my head before walking out to see Riley leaning against my countertop waiting.

"Ready?" I asked smiling.

"As ready as I'll ever be." He sighed but I saw a small grin spread across his face.

We walked out to his car, we stopped by his house to grab some towels, then made our way out to the beach.

When we road that took us beside the beach I rolled down my window and let my hand ride the breeze. Our music was blaring, and we sang along at the top of our lungs. Wind flowing through our hair. This was us. No matter what would happen from here out, this would always be us.

We passed the turn to get onto the beach. "You missed the turn!" I yelled over the music and air. He turned to me, well at least I think he was looking at me, I couldn't tell becasue of his sunglasses he always wore. "No I didn't!" He yelled back.

Eventually we came to a place that had overgrown Cattails, it looked like no one had been here for years. The pavement started fading to a light grey as we went further. I had no clue where we were or where we were going. Eventually Riley slowed down and we turned into a trail through the cat tails.

He put the car in park and we got out the car. I was like we had our own private beach. There was a rock that jutted out into the water. The waves crashed against it but suprising the top of the rock was dry.

I looked over to Riley. "Well what are we waiting for?" I pulled my t-shirt over my head and tossed it in the backseat. "First one to the water wins." I said already getting out of my seat.

"What? Emma that's not fair!" He yelled getting out of the car. While he was running he started pulling his shirt over his head. He kicked his shoes off and tossed his shirt on top of and started chasing me.

I was almost to the water when I felt two arms wrap around my mid-sectio and pull me back."Riilleeeeey!" I squealed "Let me goooo!"

I heard him chuckle slightly before letting me go and running to the water. He beat me. I walked slowly deeper into the water. "No fair." I pouted splashing water at him.

He was smiled real big, He was obviously proud of himself. I couldn't be mad at him.

I splashed him again with water, before retreating into deep water. He followed me. I stopped when i got about chest deep in water and turned around to wait for him to catch up with me.

The sun was directly above us and I could feel my cheeks start turning red.

He walked up to me and looked down at me. "Hey."

"Hey" I bit my lip looking at him.

This was okay, Today was a good day.

I was happy.
