Chapter 26
Friday Night…
Kat POV
I had just sat down to watch Netflix when someone knocked on the door downstairs. I'll let Cody or my parents get it… Oh wait, they're not here.
I ran down the stairs and unlocked the door.
"Riker!?"
"Kat, I need to talk to you."
'Sure, come in."
"No, I can't."
"Why not?"
"Just listen. I can't talk to you or see you anymore. I know you want to be friends, and I do too, but it just hurts too much. Seeing you with Curt the other day, you don't know how much that hurt me. I can't… I can't do this anymore."
"Riker wait! I didn't know you guys knew each other! Don't you remember? Before I met you guys that first night, I hated you! It was Cody that knew everything about you! I had no idea you guys were on a show and were friends! If I had known that, I would've never said yes when he asked me out."
"Kat, it doesn't matter. You can date whoever you want, I don't care."
"Riker, I broke up with him."
"Why would you do that?"
"Because seeing your face a few days ago, it killed me inside to see how much that hurt you."
"It did hurt. A lot."
"I'm sorry Riker."
"Don't be. Your life's back to normal. You can do whatever you want."
"No, Riker, I-"
"No, stop. I… I have to go. Bye Kat."
