"Riley we need to talk."
This is it, the time to make things right.
"There isn't anything to talk about, I've moved on with my life." Riley smirked.
I know I deserve this, but at that second, my heart broke as if it were glass. Was this what it was like when I told Mr. Matthew's he had nothing to teach me because I failed a freaking test? Karma's comin' at me like at the speed of light.
I turned to Lucas, how come the three of them were still friends? Huckle- Lucas made a mistake too...
"I think there is." I said.
"This isn't middle school anymore, I'm not following."
"Well, this is a reunion." I dragged her away to the corner of the gym.
"Why'd you do it?" Riley asked tapping her foot like a teacher. That was really annoying.
Oh god, she really is the copy of Cory
"The punch was spiked and I was drunk." I bluntly said.
"Now I'm more mad"
Why is she mad at me? It wasn't my fault the punch was spiked. Isn't that against the law? Underage Drinking?
"Why?"
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'People reveal secrets when they're drunk' ?"
Oh god, was she really implying-
"MAYA! EARTH TO MAYA!" My head snapped up, "I'm hurt because you couldn't trust me enough to tell me."
Insert guilt here. Pretend you're at the all-powerful window.
"I was scared, I thought you would hate me."
"Is that how you think of me? Un-loyal?" I'm so stupid. I looked into her eyes, instead of happiness and quirkiness, I saw hurt, pain, and anger.
"Goodbye Maya-" I couldn't let this happen.
"WAIT!" I REALLY couldn't let this happen, "Give me another shot"
I was down to begging and pleading. I needed my other half, I needed Riley.
"Why should I?"
Why should she? I was a terrible person, a dumb dropout. A failure.
"Because you're my best friend." A tear leaked out of my eye and I just ran. Ran away from my problems like a coward. A friend-less coward.
