Hey guys, I'm back with a second chaper! BlackSCrazy demanded it, so here it is, I told you, that I would be a very good updater! For this story... I have more chapters written, some of them are like 20 chapters advanced, or something of the sort, I just feel inspired today, and when that happens I have to write, XD, just to tell you, I might not update again tonight, my daddy says I'm not supposed to update after 10.30, so, anything else will be updated tomorrow, daddy's orders. This chapter is sad... aww.
I still don't own the characters, I have no ambition to, what I want is dinner. My mammy making that now.
Jase's Point of View:
I sighed as the rain pounded the window, the house was absoloutely silent as both my parents were at work and Lucas was at the Colson's house with Sierra, I didn't say anything as I just held Riley closer, she silent tears were soaking me but I didn't complain. I spotted the letter on the coffee table in front of me, it shocked me that someone could do this. Riley had come to my house a hour earlier, she was already crying as she showed me the letter, I let her in and read the letter, now was where we were, a hour later, me just holding her as she cried. I could remember every word of the letter.
Dear Riley.
How are things in New York, we would have written to you sooner, but your father and I have been busy, we've been moving house, we've decided to downsize since you'll be in New York.
Have you settled in well? Made any friends? Found any boys you like? Are they cute?
I'm just going to get to the point here Riley, we sent you to your aunt's because we think it's better for you, we're sending her the papers for her to become your legal guardian when they come and after that you become her problem.
The thing is Riley, we never planned on having children, neither of us liked children, and then you came along, an accident, we kept you, we raised you, so don't get angry at us. Take care of yourself and behave, we didn't raise you to become some ruffian or ragamuffin, you can change your name if you want, it doesn't bother us.
We hope you have a good life, and we wish you the best, but let's face it Riley, we were never cut out for parenting, but we've raised you to be a good person, so take that into account when you think of us.
You'll always be in our hearts.
Mom.
I couldn't believe someone would do that to their own child, abandon them and send them off to family, this was the first letter Riley had recieved from them since she moved to New York three and a half months ago, and they're telling her they never wanted her and that they moved back. To return address to write back to either, that's cruel. Riley's their only child, their only daughter, I suppose that's why she's an only child.
"It's gonna be alright, Riley, it's their loss." I murmured as the rain began subsiding, the clock across the room read 12.30 and I knew my parents wouldn't be back from a few hours, but when Riley stopped crying she was going to be hungry. "They'll realise what they lost one day." I promised, Riley raised her head to look me in the eyes, her dark eyes were filled with hurt and her cheeks were stained with tears, overall she looked a mess.
"Promise me the hurt will stop soon." Riley whispered, I sighed and wrapped my pinky around hers.
"I pinky swear that one day the hurt will go away, it just might not be today. And that's okay, because it's what makes you a stronger person." I said solomnly, Riley nodded. "You hungry?" I offered, Riley shook her head.
"I don't wanna eat yet." She said, I nodded.
"Hug?" I offered, she nodded and I hugged her close to me, everything was going to be okay, she'd make it through this, but I never wanted to meet her parents, I might end up yelling at them for giving up such a special person. Riley deserved better than them and I'm sort of glad they realised that.
"You know, if they hadn't given me up, I never would have met you like I did..." Riley mused quietly.
"Nah, I'd find some other way to steal your books." I scoffed, making Riley laugh a little.
"You would." She agreed, I smiled as we heard the rain go away, and the sun came out, I swore I saw a rainbow on the horizen, things were looking up already.
I feel bad for doing that to Riley, but now you know why she's living with her aunt, uncle and cousin... her uncle will be introduced in maybe a few chapters definately after chapter 5. I didn't put Lucas in this one either... aww. But this was just some Jase/Riley fluff, I need to come up with a name for Sierra/Lucas as well, any ideas?
Well, this hasn't improved my mood, maybe It'll pass.
Bye for now, I have to go to Tesco.
Thalia out!
