RILEYS POV.
10 MONTHS LATER.
It's been 10 months since Wes left for Canada and he's coming back tomorrow. So much has changed in the past 10 months.
First of all, School just ended,Tay and I finished high school. I've thought about College and I'm still not sure of what I want to do, neither has Tay, so we decided to take a gap year together, and think about what we want to do.
Summer is going to be in grade 11 in just 2 short moths. The best 2 months of the year, Summer.
Last Summer changed my life completely, I got to feel what it was like to be in love. When Wes left, we broke up. We tried to stay in touch but with the time differences and school, it was hard.
If you asked me if I still loved Wes, in all honesty, I don't know. When he left we had a fall out. Talking just felt...different. Texting him hurt, because we knew there was no way to see each other in the flesh.
We still talked from time to time, just making small talk, I really don't know who Wesley Stromberg is anymore. In my mind he's just the boy I knew 10 months ago. 10 months isn't a long time, just a school year, but I've changed a lot in this past school year, so I'm guessing so has Wes.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still the same person I used to be. I still like to have fun, be crazy, longboard, everything.
Throughout the school year I tried to get myself over Wes, I tried going on a few dates but I never exactly clicked with any of them. Either they we too clingy or they weren't down to having a good time and enjoying life.
Although boys didn't work out for me, Taylor and Drew are still going strong. They're adorable. Drew and I are still close, like siblings. Once Wes left, Drew lost himself a bit, so did I, so together we bounced back from losing him and it made us so much closer as friends.
Summer had a hard time with Keaton leaving. They used to facetime every single day but after 3 months it faded. I knew how she felt. Once every month, Summer and I would go to the mall and shop out hearts out, it took our mind off things and made the pain feel better.
While concentrating on boys so much, we still needed girl time. Every Friday night, Tay, Summer and I have slumber parties, unless Tay was out with Drew, or if I had to work.
I ended up getting a job at the surf shack shortly after Wes and Keaton left. It was great because it always kept my mind busy. Sometimes when I was feeling extra down, I would take an extra shift just to keep my mind off everything going on. It also helped Summer and I with our "little" shopping sprees.
After all this time I'm scared to see Wes tomorrow, I don't know if he still likes me the way I like him anymore.
Although I'm focused on tomorrow, most of my mind is set on tonight.Tonight there's a huge party for all the 12th graders that finished school. It's at the football captains house, a former friend of Wes and I's. Once Wes left I stopped talking to his football buddies and going to their parties.
"Hey Ry, you can go get ready for the party, I'll close up."
"Thanks Jake, I'll see you at the party?" I asked with a smile.
"Sure thing, see Ya there." My co-worker Jake said.
Jake had also just graduated school and we've worked together for almost a year. We were the students of the shack staff, so we always got the same shifts.
Jake went to a different school than me, but I'm pretty sure every single kid that's graduated 12th grade this year will be at that party. It's supposed to be huge.
