~My National Treasure~ (A Riley Poole FanFiction)

Chapter 6

Now where did we leave off.......oh, that's it!

Riley turned her head to him and kissed her quickly, then pulled away, shutting his eyes.

"I'm sorry that was stupid I don't know I just-" He was cut off by her jumping in his cross-legged lap, giggling. "I don't mind."

Alex slowly laced her fingers together begins his back, kissing him with a deep passion. She let him play with her curls as they sat there for a minute.

She pulled away, and rested her forehead on his. They sat like that for awhile, before she got up and looked out the window.

He followed, peeking out behind her.

"Look." She pointed to a building down a couple streets.

"Yeah?" Riley looked at her when she turned back around.

"That's a high school. You know what's happening? Prom." She walked back to where they were sitting. "I'm supposed to be in high school, I know it. I should have these memories of dances, friends, breaking the rules. Even the bad ones. Work, all that teenage school stress. I would give anything to have those memories. I would give anything."

He sat on the edge of the bed and set her in his lap. "One day you will, remember, I promise you. For now, you just have to concentrate on what you have got. You've got a place to stay, right? And you've got friends. Ben, who's like a big brother. Abby, who's like a best friend. You have me, even though I'm not of much use. I know I'm not worth much to you, but I swear that I'll always be there for you. I can promise you that, okay?"

She nodded, burying her face into his shoulder. He played with her hair, rocking her back and forth.

The next morning, Abby and Ben walked in, both with pounding headaches. Riley was leaning against the side of the bed, with Alex in his lap, both asleep.

"Aww, look how cute they are!" Abby squealed, waking Alex up. When she found where she was, her cheeks went pink. She shook Riley's shoulder to wake him up.

He eventually woke up, and first saw Abby and Ben. He looked at them, confused, then saw Alex looking up at him.

His face heated up, turning bright red in the process.

"You guys are adorable!" Abby grinned, earning a nudge from Ben.

"I'm really sorry I don't know what I was thinking-" Riley started, before Alex put a finger to his lips.

"Stand up, Riley" She said in the most disappointed tone she could muster, while standing up.

Riley got up quietly, looking at his feet. "I really am sorry" He said again, before she shushed him.

She stared at him in fake disappointment before a grin broke out on her face.

"Riley, as I said last night, I don't mind." Alex pecked him on the cheek before grabbing her coat.

"I'll be back soon. And Abby, calm yourself." Alex said, closing the door behind her.
