L.A. Invasion- Chapter 11: A Burden to Bear
-----
Spinner's POV
-----
I arrived at Riley's house right after school ended. Knocking on the door a few times and ringing the bell, obviously wasn't getting her attention, and her family wasn't home, so I waited outside in the warm weather.
About an hour later I saw her walking down the street towards the house… except she wasn't alone… she was with someone, and I couldn't make out the face. Who the hell would Riley be with? She was practically anti-social at Degrassi.
Shaking my head in confusion, I began walking up to her as she pulled her keys out of her purse. "Thanks for walking me home, Sean." I heard her say.
"Don't worry about it, I'll see you around." He replied. He must have saw me because the next words that left his mouth were, "Spin, what are you doing here?"
"I came to see how Riley was, since she left school so fast." My gaze left Sean's and focused on Riley. She gave me an uncomfortable glare, as if she really could care less why I was there. I could tell, she was still mad. "I thought you went home, I didn't think you would literally go out with someone you hardly know."
"What's it to you? Maybe I just wanted to be away from same old people." Riley spoke in an anger driven tone.
Sean cut in, waving his hands. "Look, it was nothing. We just hung out, that's all."
"I don't care what you two did. If she left school to go somewhere, it should have been home."
"Why? Because I'm pregnant? News flash, Spin. This is my kid, and I'm not doing anything wrong. This little wholesome act is getting on my last nerve."
Just as I was about to reply, Sean said his goodbyes and left, leaving just Riley and I staring at each other. She was the first to break the silence.
"I didn't mean to jump down your throat, but I'm just asking for a little bit a freedom. You can't be like this every time you don't know where I am." She stated and walked to the front door. Unlocking it, she walked into the house permitting me to step in after her.
"I want to be a part of this, Rye." I simply said, a little inaudible.
Riley in her tracks and turned around sharply. "What did you say?"
"I said, I want to be a part of you and the baby."
She shook her head at the statement. "Spinner, you're sixteen years old."
"What's that suppose to mean? We're the same age, aren't we?"
"Yeah, of course. But---"
"But what?"
She arched her left eyebrow. "You're a sixteen year old guy, you don't want the responsibility of a child. And, I don't want you to have that kind of burden."
"What kind of burden are we talking about, Riley Isabel Harrison?"
Both our heads turned to find Riley's mom standing in the doorway to the kitchen, her arms crossed to her chest, with a fuming expression on her face. "Gavin," She said in a somewhat calm matter. "I'd appreciate it if you went home. Riley and I need to discuss something."
