Riley's POV

Connor wheeled me out of my hospital room because the doctor said I wouldn't be able to walk very well. I argued at first and said that I was capable of doing it myself, but I later gave in.

We got into the waiting room where the receptionist was. "Aww, you guys make such a cute couple," She said. I blushed and shook my head. "We aren't together," Connor told her.

"Oh, well I'm so sorry. Anyway, are you here to check out," She asked. I nodded.

"Riley Peterson," Connor Told her. She typed a few things into her computer, and smiled. "Okay, Riley, you are now checked out."

I smiled. Connor wheeled me out, and stopped. "I'll set the wheel chair aside if you want," Connor suggested.

"Sure."

He grabbed my hand to help me up, and I swear I felt something. Like, a shock of electricity. He grabbed my other hand, and pulled me up. Butterflies. That's all I had. I looked up at him and smiled.

He rolled the chair away somewhere, and he lead me to his car. I opened the door to the passenger seat, and sat down. Connor came around and sat in the drivers seat.

I smiled at the thought of Connor and I as a couple. I wonder what we'd do. I looked out of the window, while thinking.

"Do you think we'd be a cute couple? You know, like the receptionist said," I asked him. I looked over at him, and his cheeks were red. "Well, I-I don't know. What do you think?"

I looked out the window again. "I think we would," I told him, truthfully. I looked back over at him, and saw him smiling.

~~**~~**~~
I walked into my house with Connor right behind me. "JAKE," I called out. I heard a muffled voice, and what sounded like a girls voice.

Jake ran down the stairs with hair gel in his hair, and lipstick stains on his face. I heard Connor snort behind me, and I stifled a laugh.

"Oh god. Who the fuck is over," I asked while laughing. Jakes eyes widened. "Well, time for her to sneak out the window."

I rolled my eyes as he ran back upstairs. And no hug? "Hey Connor, what am i gonna do about school," I asked. He shrugged.

"I don't know, I'm guessing you just go."

I laughed at him. "Well I guess I better get going," He said to me. I nodded, frowning. Why'd he have to go so soon?

"Kay, I'll see Ya around. Love you!"

"Love you too, Ri," He told me. I kissed his cheek, and he walked out the door. I frowned. Why's he have to leave? Why can't he just stay the night?

I sighed and went upstairs to my room. I plugged my phone into my speaker, and started playing One Directions Better Than Words.

"Better Than Words, more than a feeling, crazy in love, dancing on ceiling.
Every time we touch, I'm all shook up, you make me wanna," I paused and took s breath.

"Have a little yo love, God only knows, baby."

I kept dancing like a maniac.

"Best I ever had, hips don't lie, make me wanna, one more night, IRREPLACEABLE, CRAZY CRAZY!"

I finished the song, to turn around and see Connor standing at my door. I was only on a sports bra and booty shorts. I squealed. "What are you doing here?"

"Well, I came back to say I forgot to give you your present," He told me. Shit! I didn't get anyone presents cause of the crash!

"Oh my god Connor, I didn't get presents, I feel so bad now," I yelled. He laughed. "That's fine, I don't need anything."

He gave me a box, and i erupted it open. O.M.G!

"A SUPERNATURAL SHIRT," I yelled. I jumped up and down. YOURE THE BEST, CONNOR!"

He laughed, and brought me into a hug. I quickly pecked his lips, and smiled. "Thanks."
