So, I feel bad about killing KC off so this was orginally an alternate ending, but now I may take out the last line of the second chapter and this be the end. :) still not all that happy, but you won't be in tears or hopefully aren't in tears. I promise NO DEATH and no comas either ;). Also if I can get 15 reviews Ill write a happy ending 15 reviews is 5 people reviewing every chapter...

OK so they be 19 in this chapter... and also it mainly takes place in the house KC and Riley are renting on Campus, cause now that KC's clean she's enrolled in the same college as him. Oh the house I'm thinking of, think the house in Sabrina The Teenage Witch when they are in college xD.

"KC, I'm sorry."

"Please, don't say that."

"KC..."

"No Riley, I feel like everything that happened to me, is my fault. I could have listened to you. I don't know, I think it was because I was too afraid to admit my feelings for you, because I didn't want to get hurt. It's too late now Riley, I'm not the pretty blonde haired girl you knew. I don't even know who I am anymore. It's too late. There are no happy endings," she said planting a kiss on his lips, before running away out the door. Riley stood there and just watched her go.

KC thought when she walked out the door a year ago, she wouldn't be back. She was, and he was her rock at times. He helped her get on the road to recovery six months ago, and she was given the bill of being clean 3 months ago, but couldn't help wonder, "If I stay, is it the best thing for us, he needs someone stable, not someone who good break again any second."

"Hey KC," Riley said walking into the house, giving her a kiss on the cheek, before heading to the kitchen to make a snack.

"Jackie and Sam are coming over tonight right?"

"Yes, its Friday, they come over every Friday."

"Well you never know things could change."

"True, but they are providing food for this week."

"Yum, so what are they bringing?"

"No clue, you could call and ask."

"Well I guess it will have to be a surprise," she said getting up to get ready for Sam and Jackie to come over in a half an hour.

20 minutes later

"Well someone's all dolled up for Sam, and Jackie," he teased.

"I always dress like this when they come over," she said pulling a loose thread from her jeans.

"I guess, but you get prettier everyday," he said smiling at her.

"Well, when you're on the road to recovery, you change," she said smiling leaning into give him a kiss. He wrapped his arms around her, and they both wished they good stay like that for every wrapped in each others arms, it was the perfect moment. But perfect moments never last, and in their case are usually interrupted by the doorbell.

"Come in," Riley called, heading for the door.

"We brought food," Sam said coming in.

"I hope so because it's your turn," Riley laughed.

"Hey KC," Jackie said smiling.

"Hey Jackie."

"I feel like we havent talked in forever, so I vote we leave the guys to cook and go for a walk."

"Sounds fine," she said slipping a pair of flip flops on, heading for the door.

"It feels nice to talk, I mean it's been forever, since we've had a conversation just you and me," Jackie said.

"Yah."

"So how is everything?"

"Pretty good, but I feel guilty, like I'm screwing up Riley's life. He's done so much for these past six months. He needs someone stable, not so messed up."

"KC, it doesn't matter how screwed up you are, he loves you. He'd walk to the moon and back for you," she said trying to be reassuring.

"I want to believe you, but I just can't."

"KC-"

"What time is it," she asked cutting her off.

"Seven."

"We should get back," she said turning around trying to avoid anymore conflict.

2 hours

"Well we should get going," Sam said laughing, kissing his smiling girlfriend on the cheek.

"We' had fun," she said smiling.

"See you next week, you're dorm right?"

"Yes sir, but you better bring the food."

"It's our turn."

"And don't forget it."

A half an hour later.

"Riley, I love you. I really do, but us being together, it's not good for you or your health. I've been clean now for 6 months, but any second I could fall off the wagon again. You need someone stable, someone who isn't me," KC said giving him a kiss on his cheeks turning to leave.

"KC stop! Please?"

"Riley, If you love something set it free. If it comes back to you, it's yours. If it doesn't, it never was."

"KC, I've let you go twice, and you keep coming back, and here you go you want to leave again!"

"Riley, I needed you then, but now that I'm clean. I want to go out and learn for myself if this is what's best for me, and for you," she said turning the door handle leaving him behind.


Fin.
