A/N: I'm sorry about the cliffhanger. This is short but originally this was part of chapter 3 but it ran way to long! Blah blah blah etc…

Ch.4-Memories Part 2
Riley had known Daren for almost six years now and all of a sudden he became 'that kid'? He sat in his room trying to finish his homework and trying/failing to keep what his dad said out of his head.
"Riley, honey! Dinner time!" He heard his mother call from down stairs. He had just about finished his homework like the golden boy he was raised and tried hard to be. HE went down stairs to the table. His mom was in an apron and over mitts serving dinner.
The Stavros family was very stereotypical. Mr. Stavros was a jock in high school and had a sports scholarship to college. Now working in a bank and assistant coach at a college on the side.
Mrs. Stavros was the perfect trophy wife. She was blond, had blue eyes, and was a former cheerleader. Now she was a stay at home mom who cooks and cleans for the family.
Their son, Riley, does well in school, is popular, and definite jock material. They were like a family out of Pleasant Ville.
Mr. Stavros took his seat at the head of the table with his wife to his left and Riley at the other end. Riley was about to start eating when he noticed both his parents looking at him.
"Riley," him mom started "your father and I think it would be better if you stop hanging around with the Clay's son" Riley expression was blank; he had tried to avoid thoughts of Daren since getting home.
"Did you hear your mother?" his dad's voice called his attention.
"Yes" he answered his father.
Riley ate diner silently while his dad talked about work. After he went to his room and finished the last of his homework. It didn't take long but he went to bed right after anyway. He couldn't sleep though. Riley laid in his bed awake thinking about what his father had said and what had occur between Daren and him.
He was mad he hadn't stopped himself, that he hadn't pushed Daren away. Maybe then this whole thing wouldn't have happened. If his father found out… he didn't even want to know what would happen. It had to be, was a mistake. But his dad probably still wouldn't let that go.
This… this was Daren's fault! He's the one that made Riley feel like this. He was one that kissed Riley. Riley had been his friend. So why would he do this to him?
Riley's head ran with these thoughts making him angrier until he fell asleep.
"Hey Riley" Daren called, waving to the other boy from down the hall. Riley was talking to two other guys who were on the football team with Daren and him. He didn't respond to Daren. "Hi" He tried again placing a hand on Riley's shoulder. A small blush spread on Riley's face from the touch. He shock the hand off and turned to Daren with an angered expression.
"Don't touch me" Riley said in a loud commanding voice like his father's. He pushed Daren into the lockers. "Fag" Riley said, looking down at Daren who was on the floor against the locker. Riley turned and began to walk away the other boys laughed and followed after him.
Riley felt horrible to the point of almost being sick. He couldn't confront Daren after what he had just done; he couldn't even look at him. It would only make him think about how badly he wanted to kiss Daren again. He tried to deny those feelings, burying them deep inside himself.
They didn't talk for the rest of the year. Riley stood by as other kids taunted Daren and pushed him around. They didn't see each other that summer. Riley ended up having to move because of his father's job. It wasn't far away but it was far enough that he wouldn't be going to high school with anyone from his middle school. Soon he willed himself to forget about Daren for the most part.
A/N: Finally that (with part 1) took me forever to write! I had to make Riley a douche but luckily not a complete one.
Please review! I really want feedback on this one. All it takes is the click of your mouse on that little green bottom!!!
