Chapter 2

Lucas' P.O.V.

Riley thinks that I'm dating Missy so Maya dragged me down to try and work things out with Riley.

"Come on in," I heard Maya say so I figured that was my hint to come in.

I came through the window but Riley's reaction wasn't exactly what I was hoping for.

"What are you doing here?" Riley practically screamed.

"Riley I came to explain just please hear me out," I begged.

"I don't want to see you," Riley cried.

"Riley, I never meant to hurt you, I came to explain," I said.

"You have 5 minutes,"She told me.

I sat on the side of her bed but she wouldn't look at me.

"Riley, I'm not dating Missy she was just helping me get ready for something," I said.

"What?" She groaned.

"Riley do you want to-" I started.

Suddenly, the door burst open.

"Maya? LUCAS? What are you doing here?" The voice asked.

"Sorry sir," I said.

"Please leave," Mr. Matthews said.

With that, we both got up and left through the window.

Riley's P.O.V.

"You really need to get over this Riles," Maya said as we went to go and get lunch.

"Riley can we talk?" Lucas asked as we sat down.

"There's nothing to talk about," I said. "Why don't you just eat lunch with your girlfriend.

"Riley please let me explain," Lucas begged.

I could tell that I was about to cry so I got up and ran into the bathroom.

"You're going to need to let him explain what happened," Maya told me.

"I know," I said. "I just don't think that I'm ready yet.

We walked out of the bathroom and onto our next class. Lucas kept on trying to talk to me but I couldn't talk to him. When all of my classes were done I ran home and closed the door.

"Riley?" My mom said.

"Ya?" I asked.

"Someone left something for you, I put it up in your room," She told me.

I went up to my room and saw some roses in a vase. There was a note attached to it. I picked it up and read it.

Riley,

I need you to know that I'm not dating Missy, she was just helping me out with something. I realize that roses and a note might not be the best way to try and apologize so turn around.

I turned around and saw Lucas standing by the window with his hands in his pockets.

"Go away!" I screamed. "I don't want to see you."

I started crying, Lucas walked up to me and started wiping the tears off of my face.

"Riley, I'm so sorry, I never meant to hurt you like this," Lucas told me.

"Why are you here?" I asked him.

"Because there's something I want to ask you," He said.

"What is it?" I asked him.

"Riley, will you go out with me?"
