That One Summer

Chapter Nine :)

      Hey guys so if you are reading this after 11/20/12 you can ignore but I just wanted to say I edited the first chapters so go back and reread them!! :) __________________________________________________________________

        I smiled as I felt Niall’s steady heartbeat luring me to sleep.  I watched smiling as Niall and I were walking to the tree house hand and hand.

                “I don’t know how to say this Riley, but I think I love you.” He told me as I stared into his ocean blue eyes.  Then suddenly I wasn’t with Niall anymore I was back at Cherry Mills Elementary school. I was sitting in the sand box.

                “Eww look at Riley she has spots all over her body, watch out she might get you sick!” Maggie Carlson taunted pointed at me. “Riley is so fat that when the stork delivered her he had to have five other storks just to carry her!” She continued as I felt my five year old self eyes start watering as I ran back inside the building into the bathrooms. The scene changed once again to the second week of high school. I mentally cringed as I realized what was about to happen.

                “Oh look if it isn’t fatizilla. What did you do get plastic surgery? Oh wait I forgot your family is way too poor for that.” Maggie taunted me once again. I hung my head as I walked out of the cafeteria.

                “Oh look, watch her walk away like the little b*tch she is. No wonder she has no friends.” She said as she threw food at me.

                “Leave me alone please.” I asked her quietly as she and her goons started laughing at me.

                “Wait, what do you want me to do?” Maggie asked a cruel smile tugging at her lips.

                “Just leave me alone please. Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to you?” I asked her in a lifeless voice. The bulling wasn’t usually this bad, I usually avoided her and she was terrified of Abby, but Abby had a doctor’s appointment and wasn’t here. It’s sad to think that Maggie is even related to me.

                “I hate you dead cousin because you are a fat, disgusting piece of crap you doesn’t deserve to even be in the same room as me.” She exclaimed slapping me across the face. The scene changed once again, but this time it was Niall and I at prom, dancing and stealing a few kisses here and there. Then all the sudden Maggie was there.

                “Nialler, come on baby this pity-party you are having for that thing is over right? Because you know you would look so much better with me right? I mean you’re so hot and she’s so not, you should be with me.” She told him. My heart broke as Niall nodded in agreement.

                “Yea I know she is so ugly and have you seen her eyes? They are this disgusting pukish brown and she actually believed me when I said they were pretty? As if. Now you on the other hand are gorgeous and your eyes are the prettiest blue I’ve ever seen.” He told her pushing me away and pulling her closer. I was crying when I heard someone calling my name I ignored it think it was on of Maggie’s goons.

                “Riley! Riley, wake up, sweetheart.” Niall exclaimed quietly shaking me gently. I opened my eyes to see Niall looking over at me, crying softly I hid my face in his chest once again.

                “Shh. What’s wrong Riley?” He asked as he rubbed soothing circles on my back. Shaking my head, I tried to stop crying as I muttered,

                “Bad dream.”

                “Want to talk about t?” He asked as I shook my head again, sitting up and stretching.
