Chapter ten – Collin
"Can I go see Riley?" I asked.
"Umm, sure. But he might be asleep. Let me check." Olivia said.
I nodded and we both walked upstairs. Olivia knocked on a door and opened it. "Ri, Collin wants to hang out with you." she said.
I couldn't hear his reply, but Olivia let me walk in.
I looked around his room and saw him lying on his bed, face down. I sat down on the bed and Olivia walked out saying she would let us bond.
We sat in an awkward silence for a while. Finally I spoke, "So, how are you feeling?"
"I've been better." I heard him say. He then looked up at me. "You know don't you?" I sighed and nodded. "Does everyone else know?"
I nodded. "Yeah, but don't blame Olivia."
"I wasn't going to. At least she has company for when I leave. Do me a favour though?" he said.
"Sure." I smiled.
"Don't give me pity. Tell the others as well." he said.
I nodded. "I will."
"Thanks. I hate it when people give me pity. It's a shame I'm dying, I mean we could have been friends." Riley said.
"I thought we were friends." I said.
"Okay then. Closer friends." he laughed.
"We still can be." I said.
Riley looked up at me. "I guess we could before I do… die. Can you promise me something?"
"Yeah, what?" I asked.
"When I'm gone, look after Olivia for me. Make sure she doesn't do anything stupid and that she follows her dreams." he mumbled.
"Of course." I smiled. It was nice that Riley cared so much about Olivia, but I was planning on looking after Olivia. I would blame myself for ever if something happened to her.
"Thank you. You're a good mate you know. I mean, once my other friends found out they…" he trailed off, but I nodded my head knowing what he was going to say.
"I'm a true friend. All them other 'friends' weren't. You can trust me with anything." I said.
"Thank you, I mean it." he said again. I laughed. "Lets do something."
I nodded. "Okay. What?" I asked.
"Anything. Just to get out of this house." Riley said.
It has been a few days since Riley and I had a proper conversation. A few days since Riley and I had hung out together, just us two.
I was walking to their house like I did most days. Riley, the pack and I were going to the beach. Our imprints weren't, they were staying at Sam's. I had met their dad, who insisted on me to call him Mike, he was nice. Olivia was grateful for what I was doing and I was glad. I genuinely liked Riley, it was a shame that he was going to be leaving us soon.
The pack knew not to say anything about the cancer and so far they have done good.
Most days, Riley would go home early because he was tired and dizzy. Olivia and I would walk with him back home and made sure he was okay, and then we would either go back out or stay at home and watch films, which we never actually watch. We would just talk and get to know each other better.
The pack and imprintees liked Olivia and Riley a lot. They have all told me. Olivia had been spending a lot of time with Ellie, they were practically joined at the hip now, and because of that Paul has classed Olivia as his sister. Olivia and Ellie had become best friends, and I knew that was going to last ages.
I, finally, came to their house and knocked on the door. Riley opened it and smiled at me. We have been getting closer over the few days. "You don't have to knock Col, you're practically family." Riley laughed.
I smiled. "Oh well. You ready to go to the beach?" I asked.
"Yeah, lets go." he said, walking out of the door.
"Wait for me!" I heard Olivia call.
Riley sighed and rolled his eyes. "Come on then." he called back.
A few minutes later, Olivia walked out and closed the door. Honestly, she looked beautiful. Her hair was in their natural curls and she had a flowery dress on, with white pumps and a white cardigan.
"Why are you all dressed up?" Riley asked.
"Me and the girls are going to Seattle. It was Rachel's and Ellie's idea." Olivia answered.
"What are you doing there?" he asked.
"Apparently, there is a really good club there. Don't tell dad though." she said.
"I won't." Riley promised.
"Also, I'll be staying at Emily's. All the girls are." she added.
Riley nodded. I moved closer to Olivia and went next to her ear. "You look absolutely beautiful." I whispered.
She blushed and looked away. "Thanks but I'm not."
"Yes you are and never, ever let anyone tell you different." I said.
Olivia blushed some more and smiled at me. She was gorgeous, there was no words to describe it.
Olivia –
Olivia, he doesn't like you like that so stop thinking it, I thought to myself. Over the past few days I had feelings about Collin, that I couldn't shake. It made me want to be near him all the time and I think he kind of felt the same way. It wasn't just his looks; even though that had a part in it. But he was really kind and caring. I've never met anyone like him before and it was good, because I liked it and it only made me want him more.
We walked to Sam and Emily's house. Riley and I have been getting closer to all of them. Usually when the boys met up, the girls would meet up at Emily's house and we would all hang out. I was friends with such nice people.
I was really close to Ellie, I felt like she was my best friend. I was close to all of the girls, including Leah. Paul was like an older brother to me and he got protective of me, which I liked. He was a great guy.
Leah, Kim, Ellie, Emily and I were going to a club today, so Ashleigh had to go to the beach with the boys. I don't think she minded because her and Marcus were always together. I think they were brother and sister. But Ashleigh loved spending time with Marcus, so that was good.
We walked inside Emily's house and saw everyone sitting at the kitchen. "Looking hot Olive." Jared winked at me. Kim hit him and Collin put an arm around my arm.
I could feel my face heating up. "Thanks." I mumbled.
All the girls were dressed in clothes to go clubbing and I was looking forward to it.
"It's a shame I'm taken." Brady laughed. I blushed even more.
"Hey!" Ellie yelled.
"I was joking babe." Brady said, putting his hands up.
"You better be." she mumbled. Brady kissed her cheek.
"Of course I was Coco. You are the one for me." he said.
"And if he ever hurts you, I will personally kill him." Paul smiled at Brady, who had a frightened look on his face. We all laughed at them. "But seriously, Olive you look really beautiful." he added.
"Thank you." I said, hugging him.
"You didn't say that to me." Ellie pouted.
"Actually he didn't say that to any of us." Kim said.
"I did. I said that Rachel looks sexy but she would look better without them on." Paul said.
"That is my sister and I do not want to hear it." Jacob said, covering his eyes. I smiled at them. I was proud to call them my friends.
"We should start going." Sam said.
The boys nodded and said bye to their loved ones. Riley and Collin looked at me.
"Be safe." was all Riley said and pulling me into a hug.
"Have fun." Collin said, pulling me into a hug which I returned. He kissed my forehead.
Paul then walked over and gave me a tight hug. "Boys better not try anything, if they do I have my phone."
I laughed. "Okay Paul."
Then they all walked out.
Emily, Leah, Rachel, Kim, Ellie and I all exchanged looks. This was going to be a good night.
Review and tell me what you think please.
