"I swear, Riley, sometimes it's like you live in your own world," Lucas said with a grin.

"I wish I lived there," I grumbled. "Things don't go horribly wrong all the time on Planet Riley."

"Planet Riley?" Lucas repeated, and burst into downright guffaws.

"You can stop laughing, Hess," I snapped.

"What's up with you?" Emma asked Lucas as she joined us and sat down.

"He's just judging the only thing keeping me from driving myself insane," I grumbled.

Sometimes you just need an escape from the reality of life. Riley Porter came up with her own "happy place" in which she called it Planet Riley. In this world, Riley could do anything she wanted and there was nothing holding her back. No annoying siblings, backstabbing friends. Just the world that Riley had created with her mind. But one day, Riley gets in a serious car crash and ends up in a coma, and her mind goes into creative mode. While her family and friends are out of their minds with worry back in 'the real world,' Riley gets her wish - she really is living on Planet Riley.

"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.
