Chapter 16
Riker POV
My head was killing me…
"So what do we do now? Are your parents home?"
"No. They left for work. As for what we do now, uh… Probably wait until you feel better. I don't think you should go home with an intense headache. Your family might be suspicious."
"Ok."
"But as for me, I'm going to go upstairs and take something to make me feel better."
I felt so bad! I should've been the one to take care of her. Not Ross. She shouldn't have had to come save me last night, especially since she was sick.
Alex came back downstairs.
"Do you need anything? I don't know what would make you feel better. I haven't ever drank alcohol, or been drunk, obviously, so I don't know what else I should do for you."
"I don't really know what to do either. I've never done anything like this before."
"Well you didn't exactly know you were doing it."
"Well that's true… But still. I've never done something dangerous before like go to the party of some guy I met at a gas station. That was really stupid."
"So then why'd you do it?"
"I guess… I was trying to take my mind off the fact that you were mad at me. I seriously thought it was over between us."
"I did too."
"So… why…?"
"Ugh Riker, because I love you. I love you too much to break up with you, I just couldn't."
I smiled. Yay!
"So you do love me!"
"Of course I love you Riker. Ever since I found your band on YouTube, I've loved you."
"Really?"
"Yeah. And I always especially loved you. There was something about you that was different. I don't know. It might be your voice… Your musicality… The look you get on your face when something scary happens… The way you act around me because you're so in love with me… Maybe it's all of those things. When you moved in next door, I totally freaked out. The celebrity I'd dreamt about meeting was living across the street from me. And then when you told me you loved me… I almost lost it. I was always nervous about having a boyfriend. You know I thought it wasn't going to work out. Especially because you're 2 years older than me. After everything we've been through, it's definitely been crazy being your girlfriend. But I still love you, and I always will. I don't want you to ever leave me."
"I won't. I promise. You don't know how much I love you. Whenever I'm around you, I always get a little bit nervous because I love you so much. I'm just glad to hear that you still love me."
"That's so cute."
"I love you Alex."
"I love you too Riker."
Alex came over, sat on my lap, and gave me hug.
"I really do love you Riker."
"I know that now. I love you too Alex."
I leaned in and kissed her, and it still felt like magic.
The End.
Thanks for reading. And again, special thanks to ravenclawonder for reviewing. It means so much to me. I'm doing the sequel to Unexpected next because that story is still fresh in my brain. However, I have finals coming up, so over the next 2 weeks, my chapters might be uploaded randomly. And over the summer, I'll be away at my summer house in the Adirondacks. It doesn't have internet, but I'll go into town and upload as much as I possibly can because I love doing this. Thanks again for reading. Look for my sequel to Unexpected. It will be called 94 Days is a Long Time to Wait. 3 Kylie
